Even if she wasn’t good at lying, she had a sharp eye for spotting them. “You don’t believe me.” “I know it’s a lie.” “What if it’s not?” “You said you don’t have time.” “I don’t. Because I was busy doing this.” Was he serious? Did he really write this himself? Just as Eunjae was about to fall for it, Sunwoo Chang smirked slightly. The moment she realized she had been tricked, her eyes…-

It was a morning like any other. Eunjae arrived at work earlier than usual and began cleaning the store. It had already been six months since she started working as a sales assistant at the main branch of Daeseong Wang Jokbal in Sunil Market. Most people assumed a jokbal (braised pig’s trotters) shop was a restaurant, but the place where Go Eunjae worked was different. The pig trotters were prepped in a factory, then delivered to the store, where they were boiled, packed, and sold. The…-

“How do you feel about it?” “Oh, I’m sorry.” Go Eunjae hurriedly averted her gaze. Regardless of gender, being stared at as if someone were scanning her body could be unsettling. No matter the intention, the other person wasn’t a dancer, and neither was Go Eunjae anymore. There was no room for excuses—an apology was the only appropriate response. “Why are you apologizing when I asked for your thoughts?” “I was staring too much. But I swear, I didn’t mean anything…-

The sheer presence of Sunwoo Chang was already overwhelming, but combined with the swirling cigarette smoke, the suffocating air of menace grew even heavier. But Go Eunjae had already taken everything into account when she decided to get on the same boat as him. She had resolved to go along with most of what he wanted. As she watched the smoke dissipate, she only wished he would get to the point and leave quickly. Sunwoo Chang stared at her the entire time he smoked. "Are you afraid of…-

She had no presence of mind to put on her shoes properly, nor did she have the time to think about calling the hospital. "Please, please!" She desperately prayed, not even knowing what she was wishing for or to whom. Thankfully, her grandmother was still at the hospital. Since visiting hours were over, the attending nurse took a video for Eunjae instead, seeing how deathly pale she had become. She checked the small screen over and over again, watching her grandmother lying unconscious in…-

“If avoiding marriage isn’t an option, then finding someone trustworthy would be the best course of action.” The elderly lawyer murmured as if speaking to himself, interpreting Go Eunjae’s silence in his own way. Then, he handed her a sealed white envelope. “This is a personal message from Chairman Choi Chihyeol, left specifically for you.” “What is it?” “I don’t know either. You’ll have to check for yourself.” Having completed his task, the lawyer left the café,…-

Smack! Choi Anna, who was significantly taller than the average adult male, slapped Go Eunjae across the face. A sharp, metallic taste spread in her mouth—she must have bitten the inside of her cheek upon impact. Blood mixed with saliva and trickled down her throat. Her dulled hearing quickly returned. “You rude little bitch!” Before the sting on her cheek had even subsided, Choi Anna spat out another string of curses. Eunjae didn’t bother wishing her hearing had taken longer to…-
