“The boss’s food was delicious. Even though I don’t know much about meat, the bulgogi was tender and had a good flavor, even to someone like me. The seasoning had a deep and rich taste. The side dishes made with vegetables and fruits, carefully grown in the backyard, were also delicious. I even thought about the glossy multigrain rice with a rich sheen. ‘Assistant.'”
“Along with the sound of Jaehun calling, the car in the back ‘vroomed!’ loudly, honking at Clarkson.”
“Nolan Lajin quickly stepped on the accelerator. Sweat dripped from the hand holding the steering wheel.”
“I didn’t even realize the signal had changed because I was thinking about the food. This is the first time something like this has happened.”
“When I commuted to the company, especially when assisting Jaehun, I temporarily set aside personal matters and emotions and focused solely on work.”
“Why am I like this.”
“Assistant.”
Startled by Jaehun’s voice, Lajin quickly apologized.
“I’m really sorry.”
“Are you okay?”
After taking a short deep breath, Lajin rubbed her neck and replied, “Yes, I’m fine. I apologize for distracting you.”
Jaehun’s gaze intensified. It was the first time she hadn’t been able to concentrate on driving until the car honked at Clarkson.
“Is there something really going on?”
“No, it was a mistake.”
“If it’s something you can’t tell me.”
“It’s not like that. I’ll be more careful to avoid such incidents.”
It seemed like Lajin was only going to say, “I’m sorry.”
“…….”
Watching her silently drive, Jaehun took out his phone and sent a message.
[Long time no see. When are you available?]Fortunately, when Lajin arrived at the company, she was as competent as ever. There was no sign of a gap.
However, Jaehun, who thought her attitude had changed after meeting Sunwoo, made an appointment a week later, which was today.
Their relationship hadn’t improved much, but amidst this, Lajin’s efforts to improve her insomnia continued.
“Are you going to sleep separately today too?”
“Since it was effective the last time, I thought about gradually increasing the distance.”
While she continued to sleep separately, she seemed to be getting further away from him.
“Sleeping in the living room?”
“Yes. I’ll even spray the perfume I used to use by the bedside. I’ll leave the door open.”
As she realized that being out of Jaehun’s sight meant he couldn’t sleep, Lajin’s expression became serious.
“I’ll come up with a solution.”
“You don’t have to.”
“You can’t keep not sleeping forever.”
If you’re here with me, it’ll be fine.
He couldn’t bring himself to say that. He didn’t have the confidence to see Lajin’s expression and eyes when he said those words.
However, he couldn’t just let it go like this.
Jaehun, who had arrived early and was sitting down, hesitated when he tried to loosen his tie due to frustration.
“…….”
He didn’t want to show a disheveled appearance to Sunwoo, and also…
This tie was tied by Lajin herself this morning before the executive meeting.
“Director. Your tie is crooked.”
“I touched it briefly because it was frustrating.”
“May I fix it for you?”
“Fix it. You’re the only one who can touch it.”
“Ah…”
With a slight smile, Jaehun, who had lowered his hand, swallowed the water when it spilled.
With a knock, the door opened.
“You’re here early.”
It was Sunwoo.
“I thought I was in a hurry. You’re still fast as ever.”
He greeted with a smile, just as kind as before, whether it was in the past or now.
“It’s really been a long time.”
“Yeah. It has.”
Even with Jaehun’s indifferent response, Sunwoo laughed with closed eyes.
“I was surprised. You never contacted me first.”
“Sorry. I’ve been busy.”
“Well, I understand.”
At that comment, Jaehun’s eyebrows subtly wrinkled.
Understood. Sunwoo, who hasn’t contacted me much during this time, says he understands me…
Such words…
“I heard about my news through Lajin, is that what it means?”
Sunwoo’s expression stiffened as it seemed like he was flaunting his friendship with Lajin.
“How have you been lately?”
Not wanting to make empty remarks like ‘thanks to you,’ Jaehun responded casually.
“So-so.”
“I heard you’ve been quite busy, but you look healthy, and I’m glad.”
Taking off his outerwear and hanging it up, Sunwoo sat across from him.
“If you have time, show your face at the alumni association. Many people are curious about your news.”
“I have plenty of time.”
Jaehun, who had a cynical response, realized something.
He came to meet Sunwoo to ask him about the conversation with Lajin during their meeting.
Their relationship with Lajin wasn’t improving.
Even if he asked her, “Is it because of Seoyoung that you’re acting like this?” he would only get a noncommittal answer.
He needed to find out if anything else had happened to her, aside from Seoyoung’s matter.
Even though he, as her boss, should know her condition the best, the fact that he had to ask another man about her bothered his pride.
Still, he couldn’t stay like this without knowing what was happening to Lajin.
Male lead first thought she played hard to get, only to realize she
really disliked him
Short intro:

At first he thought she was just using the trick of feigning indifference to attract his attention. Later, he learned that she truly despised him.
