“Oh, no. I believe that as a senior, you can think that way. I’ll work harder in the future to prevent any misunderstandings. It’s an honor to work on the case with you, just like a senior.”
Line closed her eyes and sighed deeply. Songkang noticed Line’s awkwardness even in her gestures.
Thanks to this, the subsequent conversation proceeded more smoothly. Line reduced unnecessary barriers, and Hae-in was able to express her opinions more actively.
“Senior, was the report I shared satisfactory?”
“Yes, it seems like you’ve recorded everything without a single mistake, even adding a little embellishment. Why does Taesung submit so many reports like this? It would improve work efficiency if they didn’t.”
Line complained about the report, as she seemed dissatisfied with it. Hae-in, who had experienced the hell of reports, understood Line’s response and gave her a meaningful smile.
“A thorough and neatly organized report is the first step toward work efficiency. We’re using it for training purposes.”
Songkang stated that he couldn’t withdraw the report confirmation. Line and Hae-in discussed matters that couldn’t be conveyed in writing.
As a result, a considerable amount of time passed. Hae-in had to return to the law firm for a meeting, and Songkang returned to the office with Line.
“Is there anything uncomfortable for you?”
Songkang looked around Line’s desk and commented. Even though she had chosen a fairly large desk, it seemed cramped due to the piled-up documents.
“No, there isn’t.”
As soon as Line placed her phone on the desk and sat down, her phone rang. It was a call from ‘Our Senior Joo Hyuk.’
Those six letters could ruin Songkang’s mood anytime, anywhere.
As Line’s hand reached for the phone, Songkang’s gaze followed. It was a call from ‘Our Senior Joo Hyuk.’
The moment Line’s hand touched the phone, Songkang’s hand followed hers. Line looked somewhat surprised as she saw his large hand resting on top of hers.
The phone vibration stopped, and silence filled the space between their gazes.
“What are you… doing?”
Line’s voice didn’t sound particularly upset. Judging from Songkang’s expression, it didn’t seem like she was asking out of obligation. She was genuinely curious.
Was she asking this because she didn’t want to leave work and go? That didn’t seem to be the case either.
Then why was she acting like this today?
Line blinked her eyes while waiting for his response.
“Don’t go.”
“I won’t… I still have work to do.”
Line knew that her response was foolish. She had intentionally given such an answer. She didn’t know why, but she felt that getting sentimental because of his expression or tone could be dangerous.
Line tried to withdraw her hand from his, but he firmly held onto it.
“No, it means don’t go even if that person calls you.”
“What? What does that mean?”
Even Songkang himself didn’t understand why he was saying such things.
“I’m concerned. Prosecutor Jina Line doesn’t seem to be able to concentrate on me.”
This expression was also quite vague, as it was his usual ambiguous attitude.
“I’m focused on the case.”
She tried to draw a line with her business-like response.
“That’s not what I mean.”
But that didn’t work either. She made an effort to think calmly about what he wanted to hear and why he was holding onto her.
“I can’t protect Taesung. But Director Na will make sure he’s proven innocent.”
This time, it was an extremely business-like response. It was also a statement that emotionally separated Songkang’s feelings. He hesitated and couldn’t continue.
“I don’t want Prosecutor Jina Line to go to that senior.”
Despite that, he threw out the words he wanted to say. Then, he stared at Line as if he could melt her.
Line was firmly captivated by his intense gaze. When she reviewed the conversation they had just had, it didn’t seem like he simply wanted her to focus on her work.
It didn’t seem like he was telling her not to go to Joo Hyuk just for today either. It was too complicated. In a situation where she couldn’t come up with any answer, Line could only look at Songkang’s lips.
“I hope you become my person. Solely, my person.”
Line felt as if she were being sucked into the word “solely, my person,” so she turned her head toward the window and stood up from her seat.
Songkang moved closer to her, matching the pace of his hand holding hers. As he approached, Line’s head turned quickly toward him.
She blinked her eyes rapidly, then lowered her head and raised it again, this time looking straight into his eyes.
“Right now, I’m not Director’s person, am I? If you still don’t feel that way, then it’s not true. That should be the correct answer.”
