Of course, Ga Yeon, who had not even thought of what to say, could not open her lips easily.
She had only wanted to catch his eye and get a slightly better opportunity, but Geon Hak was embarrassing her.
“I, I, that…”
Cha Geon Hak made an openly displeased expression and abruptly stood up from his seat.
“If you’re going to sit there without any thoughts, don’t barge into meetings as you please. Why come in and ruin the atmosphere?”
“…”
“And is this Woo Yeon Entertainment? If you want to work, go work at Woo Yeon, and make sure Team Leader Park doesn’t come here anymore. With that, I’ll end this meeting.”
As Geon Hak left the meeting room, the atmosphere sank even lower.
Ga Yeon’s face turned bright red as if it would burst. Everyone started glancing at Ga Yeon.
Ha, was it really necessary to embarrass me to this extent?
It was the first time she had spoken with Executive Director Cha Geon Hak today. She was angry that Han Jae Yi was allowed but she wasn’t.
As Manager Im approached, Ga Yeon smiled.
“You worked hard, Manager. I’m sorry for causing you trouble because of me.”
“Indeed. You’ll need to restrain yourself in the future.”
“Pardon?”
“Well then.”
As Manager Im bowed his head and left the meeting room, a short exclamation escaped Ga Yeon’s lips.
Ha. What’s with them? They’re completely disrespecting me.
One by one, people left the meeting room until only Ga Yeon remained. She gathered the documents on the table with a thud and abruptly stood up from her seat.
Still angry, Ga Yeon kicked the chair hard.
Bang!
With a loud noise, the chair fell backwards.
As if the chair were a person, Ga Yeon lost her temper and started trampling on it violently.
Still not satisfied, she spewed out vulgar curses.
“Ha, damn it, really!”
At that moment, Ga Yeon’s head slowly turned at a small sound.
Her eyes met directly with Cha Geon Hak, who was standing there with his arms crossed, watching.
“!”
Ga Yeon’s lips trembled.
Geon Hak looked at the fallen chair with an exasperated expression. Seeing it as if it were Han Jae Yi, who had been beaten for no reason, a vein popped out on Geon Hak’s forehead.
He licked his dry lips and said in a low voice.
“You’re committing a crime of property damage, aren’t you?”
“Ah, Executive Director. It’s not like that…”
Geon Hak approached Ga Yeon slowly with his hands in his pockets.
He sat on the edge of the D-shaped conference table and looked at Park Ga Yeon. She, who had been raging like a madwoman earlier, now had her hands folded neatly and was rolling her eyes around.
“What are you doing? Pick it up.”
“Ah, yes, yes…”
Ga Yeon hurriedly picked up the chair sprawled on the floor and started dusting it off unnecessarily.
“There was a lot of dust…”
She regretted the words as soon as they left her mouth.
Of all people, to show this side to Cha Geon Hak.
Ah, really. Nothing’s going right.
Not only had she come to someone else’s company uninvited, but she had kicked and dirtied the meeting room furniture in front of Executive Director Cha. Ga Yeon felt like she wanted to die right there.
No matter how hard she racked her brain, no good ideas came to mind.
As the air in the meeting room turned freezing cold, Ga Yeon smiled faintly. But the muscles around her mouth were trembling.
The siblings are exactly the same in pairs.
Geon Hak smirked.
“So you’re saying you beat up Cha Myung Group’s property like killing a mouse because there was a lot of dust on the chair?”
“S-something like that, Executive Director.”
Something like that, my ass.
“Or did you do this because you were upset by what I said?”
“Executive Director.”
“So did Han Jae Yi also beat things like this whenever she was upset?”
“…P-pardon?”
Ga Yeon’s eyes started trembling. She felt her breath catch in her throat.
As Han Jae Yi’s name suddenly came up, Ga Yeon swallowed hard.
How much does he know? Just how much…
“I-I don’t know what you’re talking about, Executive Director-”
“You do know, don’t you? So did you beat Han Jae Yi like this too?”
Geon Hak got up from where he was sitting on the table and approached Park Ga Yeon. Feeling intimidated, she started backing away involuntarily.
Her whole body started trembling just from his gaze.
“Don’t worry. I don’t hit people.”
Geon Hak’s eyes flashed in an instant.
“But animals are different.”
“…”
“So act like a human. Don’t act like an animal and ruin your life by getting caught by me.”
Ga Yeon’s shoulders trembled slightly.
“If you touch Han Jae Yi one more time, interesting things you’ve never experienced in your life will unfold then. Be careful.”
It was a frightening threat from Executive Director Cha Geon Hak.
“Remember what I said. Violence can be inflicted in many ways without physical harm.”
Ga Yeon trembled in fear. Geon Hak smirked at the sight.
“That chair is no longer usable, so take it with you. Buy a new one and send it. Don’t think of coming here unnecessarily in person.”
When she just trembled without answering, Geon Hak bent down to meet her gaze.
“Are you not going to answer?”
“Ah, yes, I understand, Executive Director.”
After looking at her once more, Geon Hak left the meeting room, and Ga Yeon’s legs gave out.
“Haah.”
She couldn’t breathe properly, overwhelmed by Cha Geon Hak’s aura. Ga Yeon let out a rough breath.
“Han Jae Yi. Just what on earth did you say…”
* * *
Ga Yeon kept stopping as she dragged the chair along. Annoyed by her bag sliding down her shoulder, she roughly placed it on the chair.
Ha, really. This is so frustrating.
As she grumbled and moved, Ga Yeon’s gaze turned to Han Jae Yi passing by in the opposite direction.
Thinking of the humiliation she suffered because of that woman, her blood boiled.
“Hey, Han-”
Ga Yeon’s lips closed naturally.
‘If you touch Han Jae Yi one more time, interesting things you’ve never experienced in your life will unfold then. Be careful.’
Ga Yeon bit her lower lip hard and turned around.
Since when did she get so close to Cha Geon Hak? She couldn’t forget the look in Cha Geon Hak’s eyes as he stared at her.
Just how much did she badmouth me? Augh, so annoying!
Ga Yeon felt anger rising inside her.
Jae Yi’s gaze also lingered on a woman dragging a meeting room chair as she walked.
Park Ga Yeon…?
Jae Yi narrowed her eyes as she looked at her.
Why is she here? And what’s with that chair?
What on earth is she up to?
Jae Yi watched Ga Yeon moving away from her.
“Why? Does Han want that chair too? Should I buy you one?”
Hearing Cha Geon Hak’s voice behind her, Jae Yi quickly turned her head.
Executive Director!
If there hadn’t been people passing by, she would have run and hugged him. She had missed him so much after not seeing him in the morning.
As Jae Yi just stared at Geon Hak without answering, a smile spread across Geon Hak’s face.
“Why aren’t you saying anything? Is one not enough?”
“Executive Director…”
“Yes?”
I missed you so much. So right now, just looking at your face is overwhelming.
“Han. I believe you have something to report to me. Do you know that?”
“Me? Really?”
As Jae Yi looked at him with a clueless expression, he nodded.
“We don’t need to go to the executive office. Let’s talk briefly in the meeting room. Follow me.”
As Geon Hak strode into the meeting room, Jae Yi looked at him.
What is this? I don’t have anything to report, what does he want me to report?
Did Director Kim assign me something I don’t know about?
Jae Yi also hurriedly walked into the meeting room.
Ah!
As soon as the door closed, Geon Hak grabbed Jae Yi’s arm and pulled her into his arms as if he had been waiting.
“Ex-Executive Director…”
“I thought I was going to die missing Han Jae Yi more than usual today.”
A smile spread across Jae Yi’s face. Geon Hak felt the same way as her.
Jae Yi leaned her face against Geon Hak’s chest as he hugged her tightly. I can hear the Executive Director’s heart beating.
If anything had changed from before, it was that now his heart was pounding loudly just like Jae Yi’s.
“Actually, I… missed you so much too. I was upset when I couldn’t find you since this morning.”
“Is that so? I’m sorry. I had a lot to take care of from the morning.”
“So did you manage your work well?”
“Well, more or less.”
Jae Yi peeked up to look at Geon Hak.
“I was anxious, wondering if I had made some mistake with you last night.”
Her small lips moved cutely as she chattered.
Geon Hak loosened his arms and looked down at her.
“You don’t remember anything from last night?”
“Pardon?”
“I was quite flustered because of Han Jae Yi last night.”
The Executive Director was flustered because of me? What’s this about?
“You were a completely different person when drunk.”
“M-me?”
Geon Hak nodded.
“You kept kissing my face, begging me to hug you. Do you know how flustered I was yesterday? I couldn’t even drive.”
“…”
“You really don’t remember, do you? Phew, I was even flustered after laying you on the bed because you insisted on sleeping with me last night. You clung to my neck, saying you wouldn’t be apart from me for even a moment. You kept coming at me at all times.”
As Geon Hak recalled yesterday’s events with a troubled expression, Jae Yi’s face turned bright red.
I’ve gone crazy. Han Jae Yi.
Shocked, Jae Yi covered her mouth.
Was I that out of control?
Ah ah. What should I do? This is so embarrassing. I wish I hadn’t heard this.
Embarrassed, Jae Yi couldn’t even meet Geon Hak’s eyes and just stared at the floor.
“Seems like you’re embarrassed.”
“I’m sorry, but I think we should talk later. I just remembered I have an urgent matter to attend to.”
“Suddenly?”
“Not suddenly, but I think I need to go back quickly.”
Jae Yi tried to break free from his embrace, but Geon Hak wouldn’t let her go. Instead, he tightened his arm around her waist.
“Why? Trying to run away because you’re embarrassed? Well, you were quite cute yesterday. It was nice to see Han Jae Yi’s honest side, and I wondered how much you must like me to have such thoughts all the time.”
I’ve gone crazy, really crazy.
The more he teased her, the more her face felt like it would burst.
“S-stop it.”
As Jae Yi’s eyes welled up with tears from embarrassment, Geon Hak stroked her cheek with the back of his hand.
“Actually, it’s a lie.”
“What?!”
“It’s all a lie. You weren’t that bold.”
Jae Yi let out a deep sigh.
“Haah. Why did you tell such a lie? I almost hated myself thinking it was true.”
Geon Hak chuckled and said,
“What can I do when you’re so cute I want to tease you?”
Then what was that in my memory?
What did I want to do?
“But Executive Director. Did I really not make any mistakes?”
“Just, well, asking for some light skinship?”
As Jae Yi blinked and looked at Geon Hak, he planted a quick kiss on her cheek.
His soft lips touched her cheek for an instant and pulled away. Surprised, Jae Yi looked around.
“What if someone sees us doing this?”
“Han Jae Yi was doing this to me all the time yesterday.”
“When did I-”
Smack. He kissed her cheek again, making a sound.
“One more time.”
He smiled with his eyes and met Jae Yi’s gaze.
“Geez, you’re really incorrigible.”
“Now I like Han Jae Yi very, very much.”
Geon Hak smiled gently and cupped Jae Yi’s cheek. Then he pressed his lips to Jae Yi’s red lips. As she felt the soft sensation, Jae Yi’s eyelids slowly closed.
As his breath came in deeply, Jae Yi also accepted him.
Just then, Geon Hak’s phone in his suit pocket rang, and their overlapped lips gently parted.
The two slowly opened their eyes, and Jae Yi looked at Geon Hak with an expression saying it was okay.
“It seems like an urgent call. You can answer it.”
“Hm, just a moment.”
Geon Hak took out the phone from his inner pocket and checked it.
As Geon Hak’s eyes sank upon seeing the caller, Jae Yi stood on her tiptoes to check the screen.
The name that entered Jae Yi’s sight.
[Su Ah]The person calling Geon Hak now was Yoon Su Ah.
The woman who was Executive Director’s first love, and whom he had loved so much.
