Jungwoo entered the planning department and all the other workers bowed before getting back to work. Jungwoo scanned the whole room and furrowed his brows seeing a person, missing. He went towards Mike and he stood up bowing.
"Where is Naeun?" Jungwoo asked.
"Sir I didn't see her today. She didn't come."
"I see...get back to work."
Jungwoo then went straight to the hacking department to meet Minjoon.
"I mean it doesn't make sense! Why would she skip work?"
Jungwoo was walking around in circles blabbering his thoughts out while Minjoon continued to work on his computer, unfazed of his rubbish talk.
"Minjoon, are you listening to me!?" Jungwoo shouted in frustration.
"Jungwoo are you really that jobless?" Minjoon asked spinning around in his chair, to face the irritated younger brother.
Jungwoo scoffed, "Jobless? I have more work to do than you Mr. All I Do Is Type!"
Minjoon sighed in defeat and started doing something on his computer. Suddenly a lot of files opened on the screen.
"See? She has completed all her projects so you don't need to worry about her work."
Jungwoo placed his hands on Minjoon's desk and gaped at the screen, "Woah! How do you have all this?"
"I used to be suspicious of her before so I decide to keep track of her work."
"If you keep track of her then you may know her location as well right?"
"If I show you, will you leave me alone?" He asked pleading with his eyes.
"I promise."
Minjoon quickly opened another file which showed the current location of Naeun's whereabouts. He crossed his arms and turned to face Jungwoo.
"Happy? Now leave."
"Brother, there are two dots."
Minjoon turned to look at it and instantly closed the screen.
"Shit..." He whispered but Jungwoo heard it.
"You're keeping track of someone else as well. It's a girl, isn't it?" He asked smirking.
"Keep your word and leave."
"You're keeping track of the girl you like and the girl you like is with Naeun. It's her best friend, right?"
Minjoon rubbed his temples in frustration.
"Ha! So I was right!" He exclaimed.
"Talk about yourself. You're getting obsessed with Taehyun's woman."
Jungwoo's smirk dropped. All his thoughts on teasing the hell out of Minjoon faded away as well. He turned to leave.
"Don't jump to conclusions, Brother."
At Lisa's house,
"You're disillusioned Lisa, he saved you because he liked you."
"He likes you not me." Lisa argued.
Naeun laughed at the thought of her and Jihoon. It was weird as well as awkward. Jihoon had always remained a friend to her and she wasn't going to be the one to change that.
"By the way, where did you get this house?" Naeun asked, changing the topic.
"Minjoon gave it to me. Believe me, I was surprised."
"WHAT!?" Naeun screamed jumping up from the couch.
"Yeah, he was really nice by the way..."
"Trust me, Minjoon is so not a nice guy." Naeun warned.
"Naeun don't judge him." Lisa said, defending him.
Naeun glanced to the clock hung on the wall and prepared to leave.
"Anyway, tell me when you want to get out of this Minjoon drama."
"Are you leaving already?" Lisa asked.
"Yeah, I've got to listen to Jeon Jungwoo's blabbering now."
"Take care."
Naeun went out the house waving Lisa goodbye and getting in the car, drove off to the company.
Naeun reached the company building and got out of her car. Now, she had to listen to Jungwoo's nonsense once again. She had to answer all of his question relating why she didn't come to work at time.
She sighed and mentally prepared herself before entering the planning department. All the workers bowed as soon as she came in and Naeun smiled and greeted them in return. It had become her habit now. She walked towards her cubicle and saw Mike coming towards her direction.
"Princess, Jungwoo Sir is calling you in his office."
"As expected." Naeun said getting up.
"Good Luck!" Mike winked at her and she left for the devil's office. She knocked on the door and entered hearing a "Come in."
Jungwoo was leaning against his desk with arms folded across his chest, making him look extra handsome but annoying in Naeun's eyes.
"Hello Miss Naeun. Did you conclude your beauty sleep or do you want more time?"
"Sorry Sir for being late. I had to go somewhere important." Naeun remarked ready to face the consequences.
"It's ok."
Naeun looked up in disbelief seeing The Jeon Jungwoo forgiving her. The thing he detested the most was people being late and here he was freely letting her go. Had he hit his head again?
"Stop looking at me like that!" Jungwoo cried, lowering his eyes down. "You had finished your projects that's why I'm letting this go. Be thankful. You can take a holiday for today since you have no work to do."
"Thank you, your Majesty." Naeun bowed, smiling and turned to leave but Jungwoo grabbed her hand making her raise her brow.
"I-I'm leaving anyways and I needed to talk to you too. We can go together in my car." He stuttered.
"Sure...Now can you leave my hand, please?"
Jungwoo let go of her hand and quickly ran out of his office leaving Naeun behind, confused. She followed him and saw his car parked right outside the building. She sat down and he started the car heading towards the mansion.
"The planner gets 10% of the money." He suddenly spoke.
"From the robbery?" Naeun asked.
Jungwoo nodded. So this is what he wanted to talk about.
"That equals to...5000 dollars."
"I see you're good at math."
"Did I just get rich or something?" Naeun asked in disbelief.
"Yeah, Yeah, what are you going to do with it?"
"Can I give half of it to the shelter?" Naeun asked after thinking.
"We don't accept donators. The gang pays for everything."
"Am I not part of the gang?"
"Point, I'll make an exception for you." Jungwoo said, trying his best to hide his smile.
"Can it be used for treatment of some kind? Heart disease or cancer?"
"When I think about it, there is a shelter in Country C that needed the money. The kids there are suffering from severe disease and we were going to arrange money for them by next week. But now, thanks to you, I'll make sure it gets done by today."
Naeun nodded. Was she actually helping someone? She started thinking about it. Were kids going to get treated because of her money? But a thought crossed her mind. When she was in KIA where did her money go? To The government? The corrupt officials? The already rich people?
"Also you're going to a mission tomorrow with Jinhyun." Naeun snapped out of her train of thoughts when Jungwoo spoke.
"Really? Thank god, I was getting bored doing projects all day. What do we have to do?"
"It's simple. A rival gang has a drug factory here in Country A. You will steal the drugs and then blast the whole factory apart. Deadline is 1 week."
"Got it."
Naeun then leaned back in her seat, staring at the mesmerizing view outside the window. But Jungwoo had another mesmerizing view to look at it, only if he hadn't been driving.
