So-eun suddenly woke up with a start.
“What time is it?”
Immediately checking her phone for the time, she was shocked and quickly got up.
“Whoa! Huh!”
And was even more startled, almost falling over, when she realized that Director Kim Tae-jun was sitting right in front of her, engrossed in a mobile game. Tae-jun glanced at her briefly, unfazed by her startled reaction, and continued his game.
“It’s past eleven, waiting for you to wake up.”
Though it was a situation where she should’ve apologized, So-eun felt a surge of defiance.
“…Director, you made me wait, too.”
Her position didn’t allow her to raise her voice against him, but Tae-jun keenly picked up on her tone anyway.
“Do you think the value of my time and your time is the same?”

The value of his four hours spent playing mobile games – how great could it be?
So-eun was tempted to retort sarcastically but instead responded more cautiously, though still quietly.
“I have the same 24 hours in a day as you do.”
Tae-jun turned off his game and put his phone down on the desk.
Seeing his direct gaze, So-eun felt intimidated. She regretted speaking up and instinctively lowered her head.
“I thought you were just a simpleton, but you can argue, huh?”
Contrary to So-eun’s apprehension, Tae-jun seemed amused.
“Of course, you can argue. Just can’t take care of yourself properly.”
“……”
“Are you being blackmailed by your boyfriend or something?”

His light taunt turned So-eun’s face bright red. The incident at the hospital had indeed become her weakness. She must think I’m somewhat lacking, enduring such treatment from my future in-laws.
But I have my reasons.
Though she wanted to retort, she found herself speechless. While So-eun bit her lower lip in frustration, Tae-jun stood up.
“Get up. I’ll give you a ride.”
“It’s fine. I’ll take a taxi.”
“Get in when I offer a ride.”
“……”
“I won’t make you get out halfway.”
She had been kicked out of his car before. In the whirlwind of recent events, it was a past she hadn’t dwelt on. Embarrassed that Tae-jun had to remind her, she followed him, nose twitching with irritation.
Tae-jun’s pace was leisurely, as if waiting for her.

“Have you had dinner?”
“Yes. I ate at the office.”
“I haven’t.”
So what am I supposed to do about that?
Despite her internal grumbling, she was concerned about his hunger. She rummaged in her bag, hesitating over a sandwich. She had overspent today, buying two sandwiches, and ended up eating only one.
‘If I offer this…’
He’ll probably ridicule me.
While debating with herself, she decided against it and let the sandwich be. Tae-jun, noticing her slowed pace, approached.
“What are you doing?”
“Nothing.”

“Is this for me?”
Tae-jun, who had moved close, peered into her bag.
She felt embarrassed, as if her thoughts had been exposed, just by showing the contents of her bag.
As So-eun tried to zip up her bag, Tae-jun’s hand stopped her.
“I don’t eat this kind of thing.”
“Okay.”
“But I’ll take it, considering the sentiment.”
His large hand quickly snatched the sandwich from the bag. So-eun had no time to react.
She felt unjustly treated. Yelling internally at Tae-jun, who was walking away with the sandwich, she thought:
There’s no sentiment in it! It’s just a sandwich, nothing more!

She couldn’t understand why people thought he was kind and likable.
[Star Icon]The car sped through the night streets, reaching So-eun’s home much sooner than she expected. Tae-jun actually gave her a proper ride home, driving himself.
“It’s near here. You can stop the car here.”
“I’ll take you right to your door.”
“Uh….”
“Is it inconvenient?”
“No, thank you.”
Although it was extremely uncomfortable, So-eun thought it was better to comply with his wishes than to waste time arguing. Besides, it was dark outside her house, so having someone drop her off right at her doorstep was actually something to be grateful for.
As Tae-jun’s car turned into the alley and reached the front of So-eun’s house.
“This is the front of my house.”

“It’s quite dark around here.”
Upon So-eun’s indication, Tae-jun craned his neck and scanned the corners of the villa through the window. His expression seemed to question how someone could live in such a place.
Although So-eun admitted that it was dark in front of her house, being pointed out by him made her a bit spiteful.
It’s dark here because of you making me work late every night.
While she couldn’t voice her frustration, she was looking for an opportunity to say goodbye when her phone in her bag vibrated. It was a call from Hee-wook, displayed as ‘Oppa♥’ on her screen.
She hesitated, then put her phone back in her bag.
“Aren’t you going to answer it?”
“I’ll call back when I get home.”
It was the call she had been waiting for. Without any text messages first, she couldn’t be sure, but she hoped Hee-wook was trying to reconcile. She was excited. She wanted to get home quickly to return the call.
“Looks like you’ve made up with your boyfriend.”
