"And yeah, I do work out frequently in the gym, so all those were real. Don't think I was just doing all that to break you or something."
I narrowed my eyes.
Gosh, is she a mind reader as well?
So many talents.
I stared. I absolutely stared like a fish gasping for air in the middle of the sea.
So she wasn't a trainer? Not even a professional?
The squats, the sit-ups, the push-ups, all her commands, her 'expert corrections'… all of that was just from her own personal experience?
They risked my safety? For an act?
My chest rose and fell erratically, my mind buzzing.
Jin-Yeok saw my reaction and felt even more guilty. He was the cause, but he felt just him apologizing wouldn't cut it.
"Eun-Ji, apologize to Jo-Pil as well," he said, and we both looked at him. "Sincerely."
Eun-Ji raised her head and looked at me, no questions asked, just absolute obedience that made me wonder if she was 'just' an actress and not someone who worked with him in his underground organization.
