Tae Joon raised his hands slightly, trying to look like the victim. "I didn't mean to hit her… I just lost my temper. Na-ri, you know I wouldn't—"
"Did you just try to hit me?" Na-ri snapped, her voice sharp and furious. She stepped forward, chin held high.
Minji quickly rushed to her side. "Na-ri, please… don't let him get to you," she said gently, then turned to Tae Joon. "You need to leave. Now."
The hallway was filled with people, whispering and watching, eyes wide as the drama unfolded.
Jin Woo stepped beside Minji and leaned closer to Tae Joon's ear, his voice calm but firm. "You're causing a scene. If I were you, I'd walk away and get back to your workplace. You're forgetting you're just an employee, not the boss."
Just then, Ji-a quietly entered the building. No one noticed her. Not with all the chaos happening.
