How'd it all started?
Rules of engagement"Ms. Delval, good morning... The master's waiting for you outside" the head maid stated. Is it the day where we're supposed to go to work together?
I head outside, seeing William in his car. I slowly approached him "Mr Shon?" I greet him by gently knocking on the car door. He flinched a bit, but then opened the door... Another day to use the rules of engagement.

"I have a tight schedule today, I'll ask Chanyeol to pick you up later" he stated while still focusing his eyes on the road. We arrived at our work place minutes ago.

"Ms. Irene?" I got snapped back to reality when I someone called my name. "hm? Yes I'll be there"

After a long and tiring day, I've decided to end the last paper works then proceed to send the files to William's office.
"hm? He's not here?" his office is unusually more quiet, I placed the paper's on his table then heads outside.
I picked my things up, then left the place. I waited outside the building, Chanyeol should be here in a minute now... After a few minutes, his sports car stopped exactly in front of me, opening the shotgun seat's door. "good evening Rene" as usual, he greet me with a warm smile.
