Tae Jin entered a cozy jazz bar.
Si Rak, sitting in a secluded spot, spotted Tae Jin and waved his hand enthusiastically.
Tae Jin, with an air of haughtiness, walked towards Si Rak’s table, chin held high.
“You’re early, Brother.”
“It’s been a while, Tae Jin.”
Si Rak, grinning broadly, reached out to grab Tae Jin’s hand.
Tae Jin quickly withdrew her hand and laughed awkwardly.
“I told you I don’t like being touched without permission.”
“Ah, sorry. My hand just moves on its own when I see you.”
This habit of Si Rak’s was precisely why Tae Jin had decided to keep her distance.
He had a tendency to grab her hand anytime and anywhere, which had often made her uncomfortable.
She thought she would never see him again after their breakup, but he turned out to be a man of some use.
Tae Jin, smiling with her eyes, asked Si Rak.
“Brother, what team were you in at KK Food?”
“Me? The New Business Team.”
“Do you happen to know a Jin Tae Yeon there?”
“Jin Tae Yeon, the deputy? Yeah, she’s there.”
Si Rak’s face showed a slight disturbance at the mention of Tae Yeon’s name.
Tae Jin, noticing this, asked casually.
“Why?”
“No, nothing.”
Si Rak downed his whiskey in one gulp.
The thought of Tae Yeon reminded him of Do Jun, who had coldly threatened him.
Tae Jin crossed her long legs and looked at Si Rak.
“Brother, how long have you been a manager at KK Food?”
“Huh? That’s…”
“I’m not asking to criticize you. I have a proposal for you.”
“What is it?”
Tae Jin leaned forward, narrowing the distance between them.
Her form-fitting dress highlighted her figure.
As Si Rak’s gaze naturally drifted to the revealed parts, Tae Jin showed clear displeasure.
“Can’t you control those sleazy eyes?”
Si Rak exhaled in frustration, as if wronged.
“No, I just looked because it’s visible.”
Tae Jin sighed.
She wanted to scold him for ogling her but held back her temper.
‘Alright, just please him for now.’
Tae Jin forced a kind smile.
“Still, it makes me embarrassed when you look so blatantly.”
She covered her mouth and laughed, pretending to be bashful.
Si Rak fell for Tae Jin’s act again and quickly apologized.
“Sorry. My mistake.”
“Brother, you mentioned before that it’s hard to move up at KK Food.”
“Yeah.”
Si Rak sighed deeply, as if the thought of promotion exhausted him.
“But it’s not entirely impossible.”
“Really?”
Si Rak briefly pondered if pleasing Do Jun could help him climb the corporate ladder.
“Brother, if you do what I tell you, I’ll get you an executive position at Cha’s Dairy.”
“What?”
Si Rak’s eyes widened in shock.
“Keep your voice down.”
“Right. I should.”
Si Rak, eyes bulging, asked.
“How?”
“How? It’s nothing to ask Dad to create a position for you.”
“Right, that makes sense.”
Si Rak then remembered Tae Jin’s influential background.
He had been captivated by her beauty, but her family’s status was impeccable.
That was why he couldn’t act freely around her despite her haughty demeanor.
“How about it? Will you do it?”
Si Rak nodded without hesitation, agreeing to the proposal.
Despite his efforts at KK Food, he felt restricted by the company’s high ceiling.
Though smaller in scale than KK Food, the prospect of becoming an executive at Cha’s Dairy had Si Rak grinning repeatedly.
“What is it?”
“It’s simple. You know Jin Tae Yeon in your team, right?”
“Yeah, Deputy Jin.”
“Just let me know what she’s doing, who she’s meeting, anything you see.”
“Why Jin Tae Yeon?”
Si Rak looked curious. Tae Jin let out a deep sigh.
“Why? I’m just worried about my sister.”
Si Rak nodded vigorously as if agreeing with everything Tae Jin said.
“Yeah, I can see why you’re concerned.”
“What do you mean?”
“Oh, Deputy Jin is too straight-laced, unlike you.”
Hearing she was better than Tae Yeon, Tae Jin’s lips curled up.
“I try to contact Tae Yeon, but she doesn’t even respond.”
“Really?”
“Yeah. She hasn’t even contacted our parents since she got married.”
“That’s bad.”
Si Rak seemed to judge Tae Yeon as unfilial just from Tae Jin’s words.
“I wouldn’t ask you if it wasn’t serious.”
Si Rak, attempting to comfort Tae Jin, covered her hand holding the whiskey glass with his own.
Tae Jin’s brow furrowed in an instant.
She managed to control her expression and slowly withdrew her hand.
“So, think of it as saving a family and put in some effort, Brother.”
“Trust me. We’re in the same office.”
“Exactly! There’s no one else but you, Brother.”
Though her words were insincere, Si Rak, completely enamored by Tae Jin, seemed ecstatic.
The fact that he was about to pass on someone’s information, an illegal act, didn’t concern him at all.
“Tae Jin, just trust me.”
Tae Yeon lay under Do Jun, exhaling a labored breath.
It was just a kiss, but her body was heating up inexplicably.
It was all because of Do Jun, still looking at her intensely from above.
As Tae Yeon turned her head, Do Jun moved to the side, their gazes entangling again.
“Do Jun, but I feel like the fever is getting worse.”
“It seems like it’s properly transmitted.”
Male lead first thought she played hard to get, only to realize she
really disliked him
