    "       where did you go .   .   .  ?" Lay asked collecting the folder when hyeon came back into the meeting room . She scanned the room quickly     .     .   . The meeting must have been over there was nobody except lay in the room .

 

    " .   .   . Huh .    .    .  " she sighed .

 

  " .    .   .  Are you ok .   .    .  ? " lay asked looking up hyeon disoriented face .    .    ,  she didn't reply just walked across and sat down on her chair , taking a deep breath.

 

    " .   ,     . I thought you took over the general manager position " she pushed her hair back and screamed at lay who taken aback by her scream flinched and  sat back down on the chair next to her .    .  ,

 

     " .    .     .  I did take over , .     .    .  

 

         " .    .     .  I am the new gm, here . .    .  " he pulled on of the business card from the bax on the table and handed hyeon

 

      " .    .     . So he just came for the emergency meeting "?  She asked a little relieved that lay is in fact the G.M.

 

     " .    .    . Who's he .   .   . ? "Lay asked getting even more confused about what hyeon is talking about.

 

     " .    .    .  Your brother .     .    .  ?"she says bending down and picking her bag from the floor .

     " .    .    . Oh , hyong .     .   .

 " .    .   .  His still the executive director .   .   . "He replied standing up and walking to the door but once he glanced back to catch hyeons shocked face he stopped walking.

 

   " .    .     .  I was shocked too, i thought he left for the us or something, i haven't seen him in days

 

" .     .    .  But they voted for him to stay  .     .   . " he started walking again .    .    .  Totally unaware that the reason is shocked is not the same reason he was baffled by when he saw his brother.

 

     " .    .    .  Are you ok ?" Lay asked holding the door open and staring at hyeon who was still sitting on her chair .

   

    " .    .    .  Hyeon .     .    .  " lay called out again this time bring hyeon out of her own thought and back into reality . She stood up and quickly walked out following behind lay and the secretary leading them to their new office on the 10 floor

    

        " wow .     .   . "  lay started looking around but hyeon was too caught up in her own world to even notice anything.

 

 " .    .   . I'll be back .       .   " she placed her bag on the table and walked out .   .   . Quickly taking steps to the bathroom she wasted 20 minutes in earlier.

 

       " .    .    .  What is wrong with you hyeon .   .   . " she screamed at herself slapping her cheek lightly.

 

    " .    .    .  You're acting like you have never been kissed before " she turned the cold water on and started splashing the water over her arm to cool herself down.

      

   “       .      .     how can you be this intimate with just one kiss .         .           

" .    .     .   You saw , he didnt even glance at you for a second .    .    .  

   " .    .   . He probably does this all the time , get over it .   .  the voice in her head scolded.  

 

" .    .     .   You got this .     .    . "She stopped the water and started pulling the napkin out to dry her hand.

      " .    .     . You're mature enough to play their games .    .     .      .     

“       .       .       .Stop being so naive "  she said in a scolding voice staring directly at her reflection.

 

      " .     .     .   You need this,    .    .   .

 “   .     .     .even if you didn't , why are you hiding around  you didn't do anything wrong "  she fixed her hair .

 

       " .     .     .  Lets do this .    .    .  " she smiled , turning her chic and confident mode on and walked out of the bathroom.

 

     " .      .      .oh hey   .     .  .”

 

  “    .      .   . i'm  jessica  .    .   .  I'm gonna be the secretary for you guys  ," the girl in the chci , tight fitting suit gave hyeona  small bow.

   

      " .    .    . I’m hyeon , I’m .   .   .  

 

" .    .    .  your his advisor .    .  I know , i read your profile "the girl smiled .

 

   " .     .    .  I was  surprised you accepted this job your resume is quite impressive i mean all the initiative and cases you handled .   .     .  It's a little bit surprising to see you here "the girl went on Admiring hyeon for her amazing resume .

 

   " .   .    . Thank you , are you new too?"hyeon asked , she could tell they are gonna be good friends.

 

  " .    .    .  I use to work for the old G.M , but am excited to work with you guys now " she giggled .   .  ,  hyeon couldn't help but smile . Not really sure as to why jessica is all excited to work with her and lay , may be the old G.M . Was really mean.

 

    " .   .    .  I heard they are gonna make him the face and make him do more PR stuff "the girl started walking back to their office , hyeon followed along .

 

     " .    .   .  That means were gonna be going to a lot of places and won't be locked in this building "the girl opened their office door for hyeon    .   .  Hyeon chuckled a little bit finally figuring out why the girl is this happy , she must have been locked into the office .

 

      " .     .     .  Wow .    .   . "Hyeon gasped looking around the office .

 

  " .    .   .  I know      .      .         .

        “      .      .      .  they redecorated the whole thing" the girl started walking to her desk in the middle  

 

   " .    .    .  His office is this one " she pointed to the  door on her right .   .    .  Hyeon could see lay sitting on the chair talking on the phone.

 

   " .     .   . This one is yours "the girl pointed to the door on her left .     .     . Hyeon turned her eyes to the door on the left , her eyes stayed on the name and title displayed on the wall right next to the door. She just stared at it for a couple of seconds .     .      .   Her name is posted on the wall . Her full name .             .          .   Her mom would be jumping up and down if she was alive too see this .

 

       " .    .   .  Come on , dad wants to see us .   .   .  " lay walked out of his office , still talking on the phone and leading the way .

 

     Its about a 2 minute walk from their office to the CEO's office which is in the same floor as them   .    .    .  She has seen it when she was walking around looking for the bathroom. But lay wasn't headed that way , he turned right into the lobby and pressed the elevator button up .

 

     " .    .    .    I think the little protest you organized might cost us a lot to take care off "lay smiled pressing 11. Hyeon smiled back .    .    .  Her stomach turning when she saw him press 11.

 

    "        .     .  You got this, .    .  .  "

          " .     .      . He doesn't care , we don't care .    .   . " she fixed her coat and stepped out following kay  .     .    .   the secretary that use to great them is not here . The office doesn't even look like it's in use as all the windows are shut .   .    .  Even the glass wall of both joons and jaez office have been shut off by the shatter.

 

      " .     .     .  Is there anybody here "hyeon looked around but the moment lay opened the door to jae’s office and she heard the people talking in the inside , mainly the dad's voice.

 

    " .  .   .  The whole media is blaming us ,

“  .    .      .  do you know how many million we paid to even tone it down a little bit .    .   .  " the dad screamed .

 

   " .     .     .  Am not responsible for the expansion plan    .    .     .        .  " jae brushed his hair back the white smoke gushing out from between his lips .

 

    " .    .   .  We were never part of the decision making .   .   .  For that deal " joon added , his eyes immediately turning to the door to see lay and hyeon walk in .    .    .  He slowly turned his eyes to jae . Who just like joon looked up to the door , to see who was coming in .

 

     " .     .     .  If we don't clean this up , its gonna cost us a fortune and a lot of reputational damage " the dads advisor added.

 

   " .     .    .  You can use him to clean the mess up "the dad pointed at lay , who walked across and sat on the couch .   .   .  Placing his feat on the table . Hyeon once she got a glimpse of the face behind the smoke immediately  turned her eyes  towards her boss and walked across to the couch sitting beside lay .     .

 

 

    " .,     .    . What were thing is a huge campaign to turn the whole news around , we can give a press conference and actually give out the whole break down of the deal " the chief pr said .

 

      " .     .      .  That's not gonna do us any good, .    .   " the advisory shoot down prs idea.

 

     " .     .   .  We hear that the city council is about to go under investigation , they might flat out come and give out the whole purchase information " the advisor added  taking his phone out of his back pocket and throwing on the table .

  

       " .    .   . You ok?" Joon whispered in japanese , jae didn't respond just went on smoking slowly rolling his chair towards his dads advisors standing in front of him.

 

       Joon glanced at hyeon , who looks like she was busily typing something on her phone .

 

        " .      .    .  See , this is not hard is it ,

" .      .     .  Who cares about the jerk .,      .     .  " she smiled scoring another point on the game.  

 

 

   " .     .       Wouldnt it be helpful for us if they do that " the pr chief smiled.

   .   .   .   They signed on to not disclose any part of the deal to the public so if they did we could actually sue the whole city .    .   .  " he added making all the 4 men that were standing smile , including the dad .

 

      Hyeon looked up and scanned all of the men standing .   .   .  Her eyes filled with rage. Both joon and lay turned their eyes to hyeon when the men started talking.

 

      " .      .      .  I heard they released every body that was arrested   .    .    .apparently there are some lawyers defending them for free" the advisory added .     .   . , this time joon and lay couldn't help but smile , they know for sure hyeon is probably one of those lawyers.

 

       Hyeon herself couldn't help but smile .    .    .  Just the thought of being able to anger the men standing around the table making her happy. For once in a long time , feeling proud of her accomplishment .    .     .   Specially since all these smart men trying hard to undo what she has done .

 

    " .     .     .  I have called the legal department , we have to find a way to sue the city over this "the  adviser

 

     " .     .   .  Doing that is not gonna help us solve anything , do you know how many calls and email we get a day asking about when the c.e.o. will give address the issue. " the pr chief

 

       " .    .     .   The only thing i don't want is seeing our face on the newspaper,

“  .    .    .bury it  and bury it deep , you hear me " the dad screamed .

 

         " .     .     .  I dont care  what you do just do it .   .  ,  " the dad galred at jae.

 

          " .     .     .  I’m on vacation .   .   .  " jae replied brushing his hair back.

 

" .     .    .  Your on what ? .    ,   .

   " .     .     .  You worked non stop for 5 years and all of a sudden once you get your share  your on vacation "the dad's eyes are turning red.

 

     " .     .     .  Ok , am on a sick leave then .   .   .  "He placed the cigaret between his lips and folded his arms glaring back at his dad.

 

     " .      .       Here's the doctor's report .   ,  "joon placed a paper on the table and slid it towards the dad , who snatched the paper up and tore it to pieces without even looking at the writing.

 

      " ,    .     .  Are you kidding me right now " The dad stepped closer to the table.

 

" .     .      .  Even if i was here i wouldn't do it , " jae pulled his hoodie over his messy hair.

 

  " .     .     .  i’m not  here to clean every mayham  your wife makes  .     .    .  " he turned his eyes to the table and pick up the cigaret packet off of the table.

 

     "       .       .       .  You surely must be sick , daring to open your mouth and reply like that " the dad started laughing.

 

    "     .      .      .  You think just because they voted to keep you in , you can do as you please "

 

     " .     .       .  AM THE C.E.O , i still can fire you " the dad screamed .

 

" .   .    .     Go ahead "jae smiled not even slightly scared of his dad theat. Everybody started at jae,startled by his confidence that came out of nowhere. The dad couldnt reply .    .      .     .   The boy he has raised is not a boy who'll quietly listen to him any more.

            

    Hyeon slowly raised her eyes from the game she has been losing since all, her concentration was on the chatter next to her, she looked up at the dad , who’s whole face has turned furious red.     .     .  And was standing still glaring at his son.  The dad looks shocked .    .      .      . Almost speechless.

 

     " .      .      .  Just like you said i have served like a slave for 5 years , .       .         .    wasn’t that enough " jae smiled , picking his cigaret packet and lighter up

 

       " .       .       .    You clean your own mess from now on " he stood up giving his dad a quick smile as he walked past him. All eyes followed jaes every movement , for the men , except joon all shocked at Jae's  complete change in behaviour. There mouth hanging open .   .    .   All couldn't believe how jaes treating his dad which he didnt even use to reply too.

 

  "     .      .      . You are the C.E.O.   .   .  i’m sure you can find someone to  fix it "he walked out , joon  gave a small bow and followed behind . The whole room stayed quiet for a whole minutes as all the men standing around waited for the dads reaction .     .       

     " .     .   .  Sir your flight is 15 minutes "- the C.E.O.'s secretary announced in a small voice and just like that the dad walked out following her as she led the way .

 

     " .      .       .  Did he really get the share " the P.R. chef asked

" .    .      . I heard he even got all her possessions too "the advisor smiled fueling up the gossip forgetting for a scene that lay was even in the room.

 

      ".    .   .  He's always been like that i don't see the difference "the lawyer stood up collecting his files.

 

     " .      .      .  What the hell are we gonna do now , if he's on vacation .    .   .  "The advisor led the way as the rest followed behind .

 

      " .    .      Forget this , i hear they are having a huge issue with stocks and the china deal .    .   .  " one by one they left the office.

 

    " .     .    .  Do you think he's taking a break intentionally .    .   .   because  .     i heard" the door closed before hyeon could here the guy finish his sentence.  She turned her eyes to lay who was focused on the article he was reading.

 

         " .     .      .  Isn't hyong so charming .    .   .  " he said , his eyes going across the last couple of lines

 

   " .    .     .     .  He just walked off like that after talking like that to the C.E.O  "lay out the magazine down and turned his eyes to hyeon.

 

   " .      .    .  Charming  .    .    .  ? " heyon bent down to fix her shoes back on , she has taken it off when she sat down since it was hurting her feet.


 

     " .      .       .  More like a jerk , .     .    "She smirked

 

" .      .       .  After what has happened, I thought he would actually might change his mind about the land .    .  .but of course he doesn't even wanna deal with it .    .   " right shoes done  .       .    . she tilted her head to the left .    .     . Totally an aware of jae and joon who have walked in to get jae’s stamp from his desk.

 

      " .       .      . I regret saving him , i should have let that man bang his head with that bat then may be his head will start working correctly .     .     .  "

 

             "  .      .     .  Your dad should have slapped him half across .    .      . " left shoes down she raised her head .    .     .  

 

               The room turned dead silent as all the men waited for hyeon to finish her sentence .    .       .   Not just the word but the air in her lungs just disappeared when her eyes landed on jae. .  

 

 

    " .       .      . Say something   .     .  .say something

 

   " .   .     .  .  Any thing

 

" .    .   .  Just say something " the voice in her head screamed .

 

   "Are you seriously not gonna help   .    .    . " Lay, noticing how shocked and startled hyeon was, asked turning his eyes to his brother . Jae did not respond .    .  .  He placed his hands in his pocket and walked out .

 

     "      .     .      . Seriously .    .   . " joon galred at hyeon  before walking out following jae.

 

        " .     .    . Are you two still on the we hate each other phase " lay asked not even having a clue of what his going on.

 

      " .    .    .  I think the meeting will start now , lets just go " hyeon stood up not answering lays question and quickly walked out of the office .   

 

      She pressed the down button , with in a split second the door opened.

 

    " .    .   .  Are you getting on or what ?" Joon screamed at hyeon , lay jumped in before her and stood in front of joon .    .    .  One foot in .     .     . Other foot in    .     .     .hyeon slowly got in and turned her face to the door giving her back to jae , who raised his eyes from the floor to hyeon’s back .    .   .  A step away from him .  She tightened her grip on her bag , which didn't go unnoticed by lay .

 

          " .       .       .   Do not be intimidated

" . . . .you're just as smart and way beautiful than them " she remembered lays compliment from earlier on .

 

     " .    .    .  He's just a rich jerk .     .    ." she convinced herself and brought her head up her eyes looking at Jae's  reflection on the door in front of her .  His hands in his pocket .    .    .  His messy hair streching out of the hoodie .      .    .and trying hard to cover his dark and sharp eyes staring at hyeon, jae is probably not enjoying this ride.

 

              With a confidence that came out of nowhere hyeon held his gaze for a couple of seconds .

 

 

   " .    .   .  I think we should just go for lunch , meeting has been cancelled " lay said reading the text he just got  ,.     .    .   

     

  " .   .   .  Sure .    .    .  " hyeon turned her eyes to lay giving him a  quick smile .

     " .    .   .  Why not .    .  .  " she added bring her hand
