The day after the Polédi Bag manipulation incident, the atmosphere at the company wasn’t too bad, likely because Yujun’s warning from the previous day had some effect.
Nevertheless, Haeyeon could still sense uncomfortable glances. There were lingering stares as she entered the Management Support Team’s office, and even while walking through the hallway, she felt the gazes of employees from other departments.
The faces following those glances were all people who had been at the scene yesterday.
“It really seems like Haeyeon got unfairly blamed. I can’t explain it to everyone individually!”
Sojeong, who was always with Haeyeon as her supervisor, also noticed the unfavorable glares and expressed her frustration. However, Haeyeon refrained from defending herself, knowing that without any evidence, attempting to explain could backfire.
After the morning work, Haeyeon had lunch alone with Sojeong, who was venting her frustration more energetically than the actual party involved. Jua seemed to want to come over upon hearing the news, but Haeyeon had no intention of meeting Jua until this issue was resolved.
After lunch, at the request of Manager Choi, Haeyeon met with him separately and immediately offered an apology.
“I heard about what happened at the Seongsu-dong store yesterday.”
“I apologize for causing an unfortunate incident at the company.”
Even though there was no clear evidence that she was the culprit, Haeyeon apologized since she was implicated. Given the troubles she had caused with other team leaders since joining the company, she sincerely felt sorry.

In response to her polite apology, Manager Choi seemed flustered and urgently waved his hand.
“No, I didn’t mean for you to apologize. I trust Ms. Min Haeyeon, our team member. I just called you to suggest that, considering there might be some talk in the company, let’s patiently wait until the situation is clarified.”
“…Thank you very much, Manager.”
In reality, Haeyeon was somewhat moved internally. Such considerate attitudes from Manager Choi and Assistant Manager Lee Sojeong weren’t easy to come by.
In a way, Haeyeon, who had been causing incidents related to her since joining, was now more of a troublesome newcomer involved in these incidents than someone helping them. Despite that, how could they trust her so easily?
Slowly, something changed within her. Initially, she wanted to reveal the truth out of the determination not to be played by Isurin’s schemes. That determination hadn’t changed. But now, something else was added.
‘For the people who believe in me, I must uncover the truth, even if it’s just for them.’
She didn’t want to wrap things up and step back.
Using the commitment she just made as a foundation, Haeyeon quickly deduced. To know the winning number for the Polédi Bag, the most probable method was, as the 2nd Team employee who made a mistake mentioned, someone stealing a momentarily neglected document.
That someone could either be Haeyeon, who had been accused as the culprit, or another person.

Unfortunately, even if she checked the CCTV footage from that time, it happened to be a blind spot, making it impossible to confirm the person’s identity. Therefore, Haeyeon inferred another method.
The person who knows the winning number, in other words, the Sales Team leader who planned the event, may be involved.
Surely, the culprit behind this incident would be Deputy Manager Kim Hyunwoo, who received Isurin’s bribe. However, being in the Management Team, it was difficult for him to find out the winning number.
But what if there was one more person involved in the manipulation?
[I need to see their faces one more time.]Haeyeon sent a message to the person who was the 2nd Team leader at the time and was under Isurin’s influence just like Kim Hyunwoo.
“Have you found the person I mentioned?”
When Doha, wearing a shiny navy blue suit on his spotless figure, asked, Secretary Kim nodded respectfully. He was Doha’s closest subordinate, his executive secretary, and also a director in charge, resembling a moving notebook for Doha.
“Ms. Jeon Heejoo, the daughter of Yutifood, and Mrs. Lee Jina, the wife of JR Construction’s CEO.”
“What’s their relationship?”
“They were long-time acquaintances.”
Silence followed. Doha, with a composed face and a slightly raised eyebrow, didn’t speak immediately. Secretary Kim, tense, waited until Doha opened his mouth.

“Investigate thoroughly within my secretary team.”
“Yes, understood.”
The secretary team mainly handled Doha’s schedule. The art museum date that Haeyeon had prepared weeks ago was also executed by them. Doha’s instruction to investigate meant that his date schedule had been leaked by someone within the secretary team.
The person who put that parachute in Dall Coffee was an executive at Dall Coffee, right?
What was that woman’s husband doing? His wife embarrassed him thoroughly.
I guess he knew about that guy. Or maybe he directly made the request.

Was I nothing but his substitute to you from beginning to end?”
