You're really a son of a bitch - Jealous Man's Manager

변백현

"You...were not in the waiting room for the two hours I was performing?"

김여주

"I told you not to! My brother came while I was in the bathroom!"

Ha-! This man, who is blowing air out of his nose, must be the popular singer 'Byun Baek-hyun'.

변백현

"I have a spy?"

The conversation was cut off by Baekhyun's cell phone suddenly being held out to him. Why is there a picture of me on your phone?

Not only was it absurd, but I was also surprised that a scene that happened in a single moment was captured in a photograph.

Baekhyun Byun, who is at the peak of his popularity, is so popular that there is no one who doesn't know him even if you just say the three letters 'Baekhyun Byun', not only in Korea but also overseas.

I'm earning a hefty salary as the manager of such a famous celebrity. From the beginning, when Byun Baekhyun was just a clueless, snotty nerd wandering the entertainment industry, I was instrumental in supporting and nurturing him.

Back then, I was receiving a paltry salary. It wasn't even a fixed amount, just an hourly rate. Apparently, on days when Byun Baekhyun didn't have a schedule, he'd spend his days at home, unpaid, banging away on his computer.

It was partly thanks to my efforts to escape my miserable life by running around passionately, somehow managing my schedule, and getting support for clothes, but I also liked the physicality of the man named Byun Baek-hyun, who was handsome from the start, and had everything from his voice and acting skills to his flawless physique.

Also, whenever I handed him a task, Byun Baek-hyun would nod without hesitation, saying, "I understand." And if he wanted to do something, I would do everything in my power to make it happen.

Isn't that truly fantastic teamwork? The reason our relationship began to fall apart was because of that damned stubborn Byun Baek-hyun.

변백현

"What is this picture? You were supposed to be in the waiting room."

He must have gone crazy from not being able to date, because he suddenly started to restrict me.

It's not serious enough or distressing enough to warrant reporting, but it's enough to make a little kid feel attached to his candy, as if he doesn't want it taken away.

Even if you hate a kid, he's cute, but that guy was different. He's older than me, but if he acts like a kid, then that's all I have to say.

I don't know why I have to suffer through this, but this is my job and my livelihood.

Thanks to Byun Baek-hyun, who was doing so well that he could boast that no matter where he went, he would not receive a salary this good, his schedule was always full, and as his workload increased, he often received bonuses.

변백현

"Are you ignoring what I say?"

김여주

'what.'

변백현

"……"

김여주

'My heart said, but I swallowed it back because I didn't want to say it. Don't worry, I just swallowed the 'what'.

변백현

"Are you angry?"

김여주

'You're handsome, so you can tolerate it, right?'

변백현

"Huh... Now, back to the main point, don't ignore what my brother says and answer him. Why did you leave my brother and be with another man?"

This is the shit. Only at times like this do you get to brag about your older brother and act like a jerk. I kept my mouth shut and glared at Byun Baekhyun.

It was so brutal that no matter how much my manager ran around, he would always look down at me as if it was laughable. Whew - I took a deep breath and barely managed to get my voice out.

김여주

'He's the manager of BTS, who is very popular these days.'

변백현

"Ha! It must have been a really fun meeting with you, manager and all."

김여주

"You're like that, schedule-wise. You must have had a great time monitoring people, right?"

변백현

"......"

김여주

'I'm sorry'

변백현

"What are you sorry for? It's not true at all!"

I feel like my head's going to explode from this endless bickering. Seriously, am I his girlfriend? Why are you interfering with his private life?

I'd love to slap him with a kimchi slap, but I was too young to throw away this life, my livelihood, my enormous financial resources.

Calm down, Kim Yeo-ju. Think of your generous salary. Think of your bank account, which is filled to the brim every month.

Yeah... my bank account. This month's paycheck isn't that much left. Hehe-.

변백현

"Are you laughing?"

It's as if he's going to drag you out by your hair if you laugh twice.

김여주

'The day my stylist didn't come, so I picked out my clothes. He complimented me on my good taste.'

변백현

"Why that person?"

김여주

'I guess your clothes were really cool'

The man sighed deeply at my indifferent reply, then bent down and met my eyes with an angry look in his eyes.

변백현

"My lady."

김여주

'uh..?'

This kid always calls my name sweetly before he starts talking.

He's usually a very sleepy person, but at times like this, he even smiles faintly.

변백현

"Why would that person call you and praise you? He must have some evil intentions."

변백현

"It's sooo ...

Baekhyun Byun shouted, raising both arms up to his ears.

변백현

"All men are wolves. Except this guy."

김여주

'....'

변백현

"Kim Yeo-ju."

김여주

'okay.'

김여주

'By the way, who took my picture?'

변백현

"Okay. If you've lied again, tell me now."

Hibam. If you say it with that kind of face, who would accept it with a big "yes"?

변백현

"Listen carefully. If someone suddenly starts talking to you or compliments you out of the blue, that's a real, 100% ulterior motive..."

김여주

'Oh really!'

As I was about to leave the place because of the unpleasant sound, he took out his hand that he had kept in his pocket, grabbed my delicate shoulder without any hesitation, and dragged me to the sofa in one breath, pressing down on me with merciless force.
