Suzy had the session with Doc. Max. She was about to enter the room when she bumped into Jihoon. Their eyes locked for a moment. Jihoon broke the silence.
"What are you doing here?"
Jihoon's plaster finger got her attention. "This should be my line." She pointed at his hand.
Jihoon hesitated a bit. "Oh... nothing. Just a minor injury." he smiled with puffy eyes.
"Are you here for a regular checkup?" Jihoon asked. Suzy hummed in response and went in together.
Doctor changed the Jihoon's wound dressing.
"Did you sign a contract with this hospital?"
The doctor's words made Suzy chuckle. The doctor turned to Suzy, "You don't believe this is his eighth visit this month," he continued and gave a candy to Jihoon.
"Doctor, I came for this candy. It still tastes the same as before." He smiled shamelessly.
The doctor turned the X-ray up and down and sighed. "Ms. Suzy, what have you been doing these days?" he asked.
"She's been playing an investigating officer." Jihoon teased. Suzy shot a dead glare. He scratched the back of his neck.
"Ms. Suzy, I told you to avoid driving or putting weight on the left leg. Look," the doctor said and passed the X-ray to Suzy. Jihoon strolled near to peek in.
"Your knee plates are damaged severely. Pushing yourself is making it worse." Jihoon interrupted, "What will happen if this continues?" his smile dropped.
"She'll not be able to use this leg anymore." The doctor warned in just a few words.
After the check-up, they were sitting in Meow Cafe. Jihoon took a sip of his coffee.
"He warned you before, right?" he asked. "He did," Suzy answered casually. She never cared about the cost when it came to her close ones.
"Then why didn't you follow his advice?" Jihoon looked at her. Suzy turned to the other side. "It's not important," she replied calmly.
Jihoon grabbed her hand and gently pushed her closer. Suzy's heart dropped at the sudden action. Jihoon made her look into his eyes. She felt numb like a statue.
"Being good to others does not mean being hard on yourself," he whispered in a calm tone. Suzy felt a warm grip of Jihoon's hand. She could not find words. She pulled her hand and cleared her throat.
"Umm..." she bit her lower lip and changed the topic, "How's Ms.Dong and the little one?"
In the Holigon VIP room, a wine glass crushed into the wall. Jenitor grabbed one of his men by the collar.
"You all are useless pieces of shit. She was on aim, then how?" he shouted and tightened his grip.
"There's no use getting desperate like this." A familiar voice echoed through the room. Perth entered dressed in a purple suit. "Good thing is we sowed the seed. Just pour some hatred and wait to cut the desire crop," A mischievous smile played on his lips. Jenitor slowly released the man.
"I've waited years for this. I can wait a little longer." The two men exchanged a look before laughing together.
It was a beautiful, breezy morning for Seo-Yeon. Because her time period in Jeon Empire ended. Now, it's Jeon-Woo's turn to be in Kim Enterprise, and Seo-Yeon didn't care if he came or not. She entered the complex with a bright smile. Wherever she went, staff bowed, "Good morning, Ms.Yeon!"
She kept nodding in reply. But you know it's life; unexpected things happen the most.
As she opened the door of his room, a ball hit her forehead.
"Ah!" she hissed in pain.
"Oops, you should knock before coming in." A similar voice echoed through the room. She looked up, "You!"
Jeon-Woo was sitting on Seo-Yeon's chair in his signature style, legs on top of the table. He stood up and pushed back the chair, walking towards her.
"Yes, it's me." he adjusted his tie and continued, "Jeon-Woo. Your friend...and your fear," he whispered near Seo-Yeon's ear. His cold voice made Seo-Yeon felt shiver in spine. She pushed him with full force.
"You are not my friend." Seo-Yeon put her hand on her waist, "And I fear you? Have you seen yourself in mirror, looks more like a joker." She yanked her hand in the ear and moved towards her table.
"Also," she turned to him and smirked, "Kim Enterprise is rich enough. No need to share an office. Next door room is prepared for you. Enjoy, work or die there, but disturb me if not important." She said with a sharp, domineering tone.
"How heartless of a pretty face. Girls die for this handsome face." He flexed his sharp jaw. Seo-Yeon made a nuisance look.
"Yuck, I don't." She pushed him out of the room.
Jeon-Woo adjusted his hair, and the corner of his mouth lifted.
"Even thestrongest lion has a weakness. You just need patience to find it.
