2024-10-29 19:42:56Mr. Nam and I shared glances. And I could tell that he wasn't pleased with what happened. I quickly looked down onto his desk and waited for what he had to say.
"Miss Ryuk, you told me last night that Hyeongu gave you tons of paperwork yesterday," he started with a calm voice, surprisingly. I expected that he would be furious with me because I lied yesterday. "Why didn't you tell me that Minju was making you do something that you shouldn't? Are you afraid of her?"
I sucked in my breath and held it firmly. I didn't know how to phrase what Minju told me yesterday. I didn't know how I could sugarcoat the threat that she told me. Mr. Nam was furious. I didn't want to add more to that.
"As I suspected," Mr. Nam replied after a sigh. I looked back at him and he asked, "What did she threaten you with?"

Mr. Kim spoke from the outside. “I received a notification from one of our clients. It’s of high importance.”Without another word, Mr. Nam stood and walked towards the window. He slightly opened the blinds and remained turned away from the door. “Come in, Hyeongu.”As soon as the door opened, I removed my stare from Mr. Nam and looked down to my feet. I kept my head down as Mr. Kim entered.“Mr. Nam,” Mr. Kim continued as he closed the door. He walked towards him and said, “Our client from Nekobe Hotel just called in. They said they wanted to discuss something important to you.”“Did he mention what he wanted to talk about?” Mr. Nam asked. I secretly glanced over to them and Mr. Nam kept his back turned f

We just finished our meeting with our client from the Nekobe Hotel. Nekobe Hotel was just one of the many businesses that ran under Nam Corporations. Even though it was a lunch meeting, I was still nervous as I sat down with Mr. Nam and our client, Mr. Choi.Truth to be told, I expected for Mr. Choi to be, somehow, like Minju. But I was proven to be wrong. Mr. Choi was actually a nice person and he even made sure that I was comfortable during the whole time he talked with Mr. Nam.Mr. Nam explained that before he would make partners with someone, he would always ask their employees about their bosses. Mr. Nam said that he would never accept a partner who had a record of mistreating their employees. Because it was against our company’s values and he would remind his partners and clients of that rule.It was ano

Our eyes met and after a few seconds, he smiled and continued, “Pull yourself together. I want my secretary to be presentable in front of my brother.”I nodded without hesitation. Mr. Nam turned around and finally, I was able to breathe again. I swallowed a big lump in my throat and proceeded to fix my hair. I turned around and faced the metal wall of the elevator and made sure that my ponytail was clean.I just finished fixing my hair when the elevator came to a halt. I grabbed my tablet and fixed my clothes as quickly as possible. Slowly, the elevator doors opened and Mr. Nam walked ahead of me. With my head down, I followed his trail and kept my head low.Not long after, we arrived at the front desk of the top floor. There sat a woman with brown hair, round glasses, and a navy blue blazer with a white

Mr. Taeyoung was horrified. Brows knitted together and his eyes opened wide. “What do you mean my rating isn’t enough? The chat completely shows that my reputation has recovered,” he protested.“That was your reputation amongst your current partners and clients,” Mr. Nam grabbed the second folder once again and opened it. He continued, “Your reputation with the public is undecided. And with the people within the business industry, their trust in your name is yet to be restored.”I secretly glanced over to Mr. Taeyoung and his jaw clenched. His hand on the table slowly clenched as Mr. Nam put the folder back on the table.Mr. Nam continued, “Did you really think that I wouldn’t see that? Your chart explained everything perfectly.”

It was already past five in the afternoon and I was still transcribing the voice recordings today. At first, I only wanted to take down notes of the important details. However, I kept getting distracted with the whole audio. So, I took it upon myself to transcribe them.As for my officemates, everyone has already left the building. Soyoung wanted to stay behind but I told her that I would only stay for a bit. Minju and her friends didn’t say a word when I returned. But they would still do their occasional death glares.As for Mr. Nam, we didn’t speak during the whole ride back to the company. The car was dead silent. But Haru and I exchanged glances through his rearview mirror. Eventually, Mr. Nam spoke to me when we got into the elevator.---*---*---*---

“It’s the end of the day and I usually come here to get away from work. You should do the same, Miss Ryuk. Remember, don’t bring your work everywhere that you go. Or it will consume your everyday life. Is that clear?”I nodded. The way Mr. Nam said that, he wasn’t angry and it wasn’t said sarcastically. He was kind and soft when he asked me to stop thinking about work. The manner of how concerned he was with my well-being was truly amazing.We returned to our food and allowed for silence to overcome the room. The sound of pans clanging and plates being moved were very faint. Distant murmurings from the staff can also be heard. And even though I was sharing a meal with our employer, I didn’t have the feeling as if I was being watched. Which was a comforting feeling to have.D

“First thing is I already sensed that you were uncomfortable with that invitation,” he replied. He asked, “Am I correct? Or am I just assuming things? Because you froze a bit after Taeyoung blurted out that question.”With a firm smile, I nodded.“Because of that, I had to act quickly. I couldn’t tell you to ignore him when we were still with him. That would be rude of me to do. Second,” he continued, “Now that a client of mine and my brother have met you as my secretary, I have no doubt that they will tell the rest of the people within our circle about you. Like what my brother said, I never brought my secretaries along with me. It’s always Hyeongu who accompanies me in such meetings. For me to suddenly bring a secretary along is news for them. And it’s going to be worth their time to talk about.&rdqu

He was thrown onto the table, breaking it with his body.I looked up and it was Mr. Nam and Hyeorae. Mr. Nam had death in his glare as he looked at the board member.Hyeorae quickly helped me up whilst Mr. Nam headed to the weakened man. And when he stood before him, he punched him without mercy. And there was no sign that he was going to stop."Sir, sir, that's enough," Hyeorae rushed over to Mr. Nam and pulled him back towards us. Mr. Nam resisted against Hyeorae but Hyeorae maintained his composure and held him back. He continued, "Mr. Nam, that's enough. People are watching."We looked around and the rest of the VIP section were staring at the commotion we started. Mr. Nam shook off Hyeorae's hand and fixed himself. "Take Miss Ryuk out of here and start the car," he gritted."Yes, sir." Without a moment to lose, Hyeorae gently led me out of the VIP section. He held me by the arm, his hand on my waist as we rushed our way out of this place.My heart pounded continuously as I became

Whilst we waited for the board director, I stood in between Mr. Nam and Hyeorae. Mr. Nam stood before me whilst Hyeorae stayed behind me. This position was supposed to make me feel secure. However, I was still wary of my surroundings. Random men had been eyeing me since we got here and the presence of Mr. Nam and Hyeorae wasn’t doing anything to scare them away.I stepped back and Hyeorae was quick to step closer to me. He moved closer to my ear and asked, “Is there something wrong, Miss Ryuk?”I shook my head and replied, trying my best to push through the loud music, “I’m very uncomfortable. Some guys here have been staring at me and I hate that.”Suddenly, someone held my hand and I immediately pulled away. Thankfully, it was only Mr. Nam. I was quickly relieved and he stepped closer to us. “Did something happen?” he asked.“Miss Ryuk said that some dudes were staring down at her because of her dress,” Hyeorae answered. “She’s a bit uncomfortable, sir.”Mr. Nam looked at me and ge

“As you can see, we still have more areas to expand our business. For now, we want to focus on what we have right now and make sure that we cater to everybody that we have,” Mr. Ho explained as he stood before us. On the whiteboard, the projector showed a map of the whole area of their vicinity.Today was the final day for us to meet with Mr. Ho and his board of directors. And he saved the best for last. He actually had a conference room behind the lobby and it was professional beyond professional.I knew I made the right decision in bringing my business suit.I looked to Mr. Nam anticipated for his response.Quietly, he tapped his fingers on the table as he looked down to his notes.The room was dead silent.

“Alright, you two. You’re up,” the staff said to us as he opened the gate.“Come on, Jinho,” I said, stepping onto the platform. Immediately, I took a seat in our designated cart. As I got settled in, I was shocked to find Mr. Nam, frozen in line. Irritated, I asked, “Jinho, what are you doing?”The staff entered the conversation, “You need to move, sir. There’s a long line behind you.”Mr. Nam looked at him with frightened eyes. His hands gripped tightly onto his leather jacket.After a long sigh and a groan, I stomped towards him and grabbed him by the hand.“Wait, wait, Mingyu,” he stuttered, fighting against my pull. He continued, “Stop for a second, give me a moment to breathe–”Immediately, I sat him on his spot in the cart, not allowing him to finish. I replied, “There’s no time. People are waiting to get on the ride. You can’t just stand there, make a fool of yourself and shake to death.” I sat beside him and allowed to lock our seatbelts.The seatbelts weren’t that tight but

“So, how’s everything there?” Soyoung asked on the other line.“Mr. Nam and I are currently waiting for the clients to arrive. We’re supposed to be in the middle of a meeting right now. But for some reason, they’re still not here,” I explained.“Oh, how manners dissolve when you become rich,” she remarked after a sigh. She asked another, “How was your first night in Jeju? Were you able to enjoy yourself?”I replied, “It was a chill start for the weekend. I shared dinner with Mr. Nam. The resto bar here has such a delicious shrimp cocktail. And—““Hold on. You did not just say that and simply brush it off like it’s nothing,” she said.I stopped for a second before I asked, “What do you mean?”“Replay just what you said.”“About the shrimp cocktail.”“No, not that.”I took a moment and retraced my words. “Oh, okay,” I replied, realizing what she meant. “What about that?”“Did you just go on a date with Mr. Nam?” she whispered over the phone.“No, Soyoung, it wasn’t a date. We somehow bu

“Oh, um, hi,” I replied, stuttering. “I didn’t know you’d be here, Mr—““Call me Jinho,” he interrupted as he whispered in my ear. He continued, “Remember, outside of work, you call me by my name.”“You know this girl?” the girl asked behind him. She continued, “You’re going to choose a plain dish rag over me?”Mr. Nam moved away from me and faced the girls. He then replied, “I’d rather be with a girl who’s a dish rag rather than a girl who’s an all-out buffet.”My eyes widened, looking up at Mr. Nam. He didn’t just say that. It wasn’t even directed to me but I felt how hurtful those words were.“Ah, Mr. Nam,” the bartender called out as he returned with the shrimp cocktail. He continued as he arrived with us, “I see you already found your lady. Here’s your shrimp cocktail, ma’am,” he gently put the cocktail in front of me. He then turned to Mr. Nam and asked, “What can I get you tonight, sir?”“A martini and a pineapple vodka for Mingyu over here,” he said, briefly pointing towards m

“You’re going somewhere, Miss Ryuk?” Hyeorae asked as I headed to the door.I turned around and replied, “I’m just going for a walk.”“Do you want me to come with you?” he asked, quickly standing up from the couch.I quickly answered, “Oh, no, no, Hyeorae. There’s no need for that. I want to go by myself. At the same time, the day has already ended. You’re off duty.”“That’s not how my job works, Miss Ryuk. I was told to watch over you here in Jeju. I need to follow orders,” he insisted.“Hyeorae, Mr. Nam told me to enjoy the place. And I won’t be able to do that with a bodyguard,” I explained. I continued, “And besides, you worked well today. It’s time for you to simply sit back and enjoy the rest of the night. Like what you’re doing right now.” I then pointed at the television, which was at the sports channel.He glanced over at the television before returning to me. He asked, “Are you sure you can handle yourself, Miss Ryuk? You don’t know the place. What if something happens to yo

Immediately, I turned around and my eyes widened upon seeing Mr. Nam was standing behind me.“Mr. Nam,” Hyeorae and I greeted in unison.“It’s wonderful to see that you arrived safe and sound, Miss Ryuk. But may I ask, what in the world are you wearing?” Mr. Nam asked as he looked at my whole outfit.“Um, well–”He interrupted, “Why are you wearing a suit? Didn’t Hyeorae tell you what I said?”“He did, Mr. Nam,” I replied right away. I continued, “It was me who chose to wear this outfit. When Hyeorae said you were in a meeting, I thought it was the usual business kind.”Mr. Nam chuckled. He then said, “Miss Ryuk, we’re at a beach resort. We don’t do formal business meetings unless deemed necessary. But not to worry, you can always change your outfit. The meeting hasn’t started yet.”“But I don’t have a beach outfit, Mr. Nam.”His brows furrowed. He asked, “Where’s the luggage that I sent Haru to give to you?”“It’s in my room, Mr. Nam.”“Have you opened it?”I shook my head. I replied
