I got caught by a conglomerate


uh...

So, why is this article...


๋ฐ์ฑํธ
Lady Yeoju?

๊น์ฌ์ฃผ
yes...!


๋ฐ์ฑํธ
Please come to the representative office for a moment.

๊น์ฌ์ฃผ
yes...

This is seriously a big deal...


๋ฐ์ฑํธ
Is this true?

๊น์ฌ์ฃผ
...you saw it...


๋ฐ์ฑํธ
Are you really in love?


๋ฐ์ฑํธ
So when I asked if he had time, he kept saying no...

๊น์ฌ์ฃผ
I'm sorry, sir.

๊น์ฌ์ฃผ
I feel like I've caused trouble for the company...


๋ฐ์ฑํธ
Well... but love is love,


๋ฐ์ฑํธ
It's not marriage, right?


๋ฐ์ฑํธ
are you okay.

๊น์ฌ์ฃผ
yes?


๋ฐ์ฑํธ
It's okay, go and finish your work.


๋ฐ์ฑํธ
Don't worry, the other employees won't know that the main character is the female lead.

๊น์ฌ์ฃผ
How did you know, sir...?


๋ฐ์ฑํธ
By feeling.

๊น์ฌ์ฃผ
...ah,

๊น์ฌ์ฃผ
Thank you, sir.

...I'm glad we have such a generous leader.

* After some time has passed.

When Taesan's engagement was canceled, he also stepped down from his position as CEO.

Of course, I was the most shocked when I heard this news.

๊น์ฌ์ฃผ
Are you really not bothered?


ํํ์ฐ
are you okay.

๊น์ฌ์ฃผ
...

๊น์ฌ์ฃผ
I really don't think this is right... Is there no other way?


ํํ์ฐ
No. I want to rest.


ํํ์ฐ
I want to rest.


ํํ์ฐ
I'm going to America with you.

๊น์ฌ์ฃผ
what?


ํํ์ฐ
If you are far away from me,


ํํ์ฐ
Doesn't it seem crazy?


ํํ์ฐ
So let's go together.

๊น์ฌ์ฃผ
...

๊น์ฌ์ฃผ
Is that okay? I'm going there to learn a job.

๊น์ฌ์ฃผ
I'm bored alone...


ํํ์ฐ
It's okay. I can be with you anyway.

So far so good.

Because I wouldn't be lonely either.


๋ฐ์ฑํธ
Madam Yeoju.


๋ฐ์ฑํธ
You're going to America, right?

๊น์ฌ์ฃผ
yes!!


๋ฐ์ฑํธ
I think you'll be going to a country other than the United States.


๋ฐ์ฑํธ
I think you'll find out where you're going on the day.

๊น์ฌ์ฃผ
yes?

๊น์ฌ์ฃผ
What do you mean...


๋ฐ์ฑํธ
I'm preparing for it.


๋ฐ์ฑํธ
Because one representative has now stepped down from his position.


๋ฐ์ฑํธ
Going abroad with the female lead or something like that...

...That's when I really felt it. I was screwed.


๋ฐ์ฑํธ
Since you're going to work, I hope you just focus on work.


๋ฐ์ฑํธ
If you tell this to the representative,


๋ฐ์ฑํธ
If a representative shows up at the airport,


๋ฐ์ฑํธ
The female lead is fired immediately.


๋ฐ์ฑํธ
Don't think about going back to a cafe just because you worked there before. You won't be able to do it anyway.


๋ฐ์ฑํธ
Here, I tell all the companies...

๊น์ฌ์ฃผ
I know what you mean.

๊น์ฌ์ฃผ
...I'll keep that in mind.


๋ฐ์ฑํธ
(Laughs) Okay. Okay, then go and do your work.

I came out of the office with a dark expression.

What should I do with this...

๊น์ฌ์ฃผ
hello?


ํํ์ฐ
I called because I was bored.


ํํ์ฐ
I want to see you right now... but really, I can't?

๊น์ฌ์ฃผ
Yeah, sorry.


ํํ์ฐ
What's going on?


ํํ์ฐ
Didn't Representative Park say something to you?

๊น์ฌ์ฃผ
Representative Park isn't that kind of person.


ํํ์ฐ
...


ํํ์ฐ
(in a lowered voice) Are you secretly good at protecting Representative Park?

๊น์ฌ์ฃผ
...That's because he really isn't that kind of person.

๊น์ฌ์ฃผ
Actually, I decided not to go to America.


ํํ์ฐ
(Laughs) That's good news.


ํํ์ฐ
But why is your voice so sad?


ํํ์ฐ
Because you feel sorry?

๊น์ฌ์ฃผ
...No, it's not that I regret it...


ํํ์ฐ
But why?


ํํ์ฐ
(Sigh) ...I'll pick you up now. I need to see you.

๊น์ฌ์ฃผ
...

* After some time has passed.


ํํ์ฐ
(Enter the password and come in.)


ํํ์ฐ
Why are you crying? Huh?

๊น์ฌ์ฃผ
Sorry.


ํํ์ฐ
Why? What?

๊น์ฌ์ฃผ
I thought something unfortunate might happen.

๊น์ฌ์ฃผ
I apologize in advance. I'm really sorry...

๊น์ฌ์ฃผ
I really can't help it...


ํํ์ฐ
Are you suggesting we break up?


ํํ์ฐ
Because I'm not the representative anymore?

๊น์ฌ์ฃผ
What are you talking about?

๊น์ฌ์ฃผ
That's not it...


ํํ์ฐ
If not that, then what?


ํํ์ฐ
Tell me.


ํํ์ฐ
We're both so frustrated right now.

๊น์ฌ์ฃผ
Just a few days...

๊น์ฌ์ฃผ
In just a few days, you'll all... know.

What I really felt today is,

It turned out that I was a more serious person about my work than I thought.

Even though Taesan stepped down from his position as CEO, he still has a lot of money.

I'm going to live without worrying about money.

I'm not a tycoon, so if I can't run a cafe or go to work...

I was cautious because I had to either live as a beggar for the rest of my life or take on a completely new and scary challenge.

In the end, I didn't say anything to Taesan until the end.

I prepared to leave abroad.

however,

The representative was going with you too...?!


๋ฐ์ฑํธ
...Surprised?

๊น์ฌ์ฃผ
Why didn't you tell me that the CEO was going too...


๋ฐ์ฑํธ
That's because you didn't ask.

If Taesan found out about this, the situation would become even more difficult.

Why did I naturally assume I would go alone?
