The New Year holiday ended, and finally, it was the first day of work as a secretary.

Eunseo dressed neatly from head to toe.

The day before, she had gone to the beauty salon to perm her hair, and in the morning, she styled it with a hairdryer. Fortunately, the clothes and shoes were various items that Seungju had bought for her when he took her to his house before, so when she dressed up, she looked quite presentable.

At eight in the morning, Seungju came to Eunseo’s house in Yeonsadong to pick her up. Originally, he was the type of person who arrived at the company by six in the morning, but he delayed the working hours significantly for Eunseo, who loved to sleep in.

[“Just go as usual and come to work early. I can wake up a bit earlier.”] [“I can’t wake up even if you wake me up.”] [“Then how about seven o’clock?”] [“No, eight o’clock.”]

Although there was a considerable struggle about this, in the end, an agreement was reached to let Eunseo go to work early in exchange for coming home late.

“I tried to dress as secretary-like as possible… How is it?”

When Eunseo awkwardly asked, he, for some reason, looked at a distant mountain and coughed in vain.

“It’s okay.”

Knowing that it meant it looked very pretty in Seungju’s style, Eunseo chuckled.

So, Eunseo set out on her first day of work as a secretary. The problem was not that she, the secretary, was not the one driving, but the person who was supposed to drive her was unclear.

“I need to take driving lessons.”

She hadn’t even test-driven the car he gave her for Christmas. Thinking that she should escape from the horrible driver’s license, she said so, but the person driving for her shook their head vigorously.

“No need to learn.”

“Why?”

“When I’m with you, I’ll drive, and when you go alone, I’ll attach a driver for you.”

Feeling like she was forgetting something, Eunseo reminded them again.

“I’m Seungju’s secretary, right?”

“A secretary’s job is to listen to instructions.”

With no words to refute, Eunseo closed her mouth.

After arriving at the company, they parked in the underground parking lot and got out of the car. Fortunately, there was a separate parking corner for executives, so the surroundings were quiet. But for some reason, she couldn’t help but feel uneasy as if someone were watching because there were no people around.

On the way to the elevator, as always, Seungju walked with his chest wide open and confidently, but Eunseo, who was walking a little behind, couldn’t do the same. It felt like someone was staring at her.

Only after getting on the elevator did Eunseo breathe a sigh of relief.

“I’m sorry. Perhaps, it would be better for the morning and evening commute to be with Director Choi as usual.”

“Why suddenly?”

“It seems a bit strange if other people see it.”

“How about the secretary commuting together?”

“The president gets off from the driver’s seat!”

Suddenly, he grabbed the wall of the elevator and approached her, raising his arm. Startled, she stepped back, and her back hit the wall.

“Secretary Yoon.”

A lower voice. Because of the warm breath that gently touched her ear, her body trembled.

“Are you going to dodge my orders continually?”
The moment our lips were about to touch,

Suddenly, with a “ding” sound, the elevator stopped, and the doors opened. Several employees got on, greeting,

“Hello, CEO.”

Eunseo, still pressed against the wall, spoke as if her words were squeezed out.

“The schedule for today is strange, CEO.”

Seungju, leaning against the opposite wall, detached his silence and responded,

“Understood, Secretary Yoon.”

It seemed not bad as secretary and boss. They seemed to match well from the first day of work.

Finally, it was the day of the last evaluation before the upcoming arrangement competition.

Standing on the public recording stage for the audience to see was a few days away. Today, even though it was an unofficial stage shown only in front of the trainers, it was also recorded for broadcast, so everyone dressed properly and received makeup.

In Chris’s case, this unofficial stage was more nerve-wracking than the public recording. Whether it was his natural stage temperament or not, when he saw the faces of cheering fans, he felt more empowered and performed better. However, when the trainer teachers watched with intense focus, he ended up making mistakes he wouldn’t normally make.

Today, there was a particular reason why he couldn’t afford to make more mistakes. Originally, the main vocal part was assigned to Choi Woonha, but Chris, who joined in the middle, graciously yielded it to him.

As expected, all the scenes where Choi Woonha scolded Chris and Jinyoung as ‘stupid bastards’ were cut off in the broadcast, leaving only scenes of him conceding gracefully.

[I also have ambitions, but considering the skill, Chris is much better.]

The production team kindly added subtitles, portraying Choi Woonha as a magnanimous person.

First, step back and yield to your younger brother.
