Minji eye's are widened seeing Alejandro Collins' face close to her when he leaned forwards to kiss her but broke it before she can pull away.

"I--I'm sorry.." He placed his hands on her shoulders and then brushed his hair up. "I--I didn't..shit!" He kicked the ground but Minji is still not moving. He fixed his tie and turned to her. "Can you please say something?"

Minji turned the other way, brushing her lips with her fingers. Alejandro catch up soon. "Darling, please say something." He was walking beside her but she is not meeting his gaze.

She just kept on walking while Alejandro talks but she cannot fathom what has been said only the feeling that she wished it was Jung Kook's lips.

"I'll take you home..." Alejandro pulled her arms and her legs follow his strides. She didn't even notice that he was driving a Jaguar. He buckled her into her seat and Alejandro drives slow.

"I should have been a gentleman...I'm sorry" He remarked while in between driving and looking at Minji who is still in shock. She had avoided his looks after their kiss. "You were...I don't know...you reminded me so much of Melissa and I was not able to control myself..." Melissa is his dead wife. Minji felt at ease knowing that she was just a reminder of someone else.

"I was thinking of someone else too." She would love to say that but didn't want to sound rude.

"T--that's okay, sir." She finally looked at him. "I understand."

"Please call me Eagle." He brushed his hair while gripping the steering wheel.

They did not talk much after that. Minji for most of the time was looking outside car, enjoying the lights as they drove by, thinking what Jung Kook is doing tonight.

"Hey, do you wanna be like married for real?" Jung Kook asked Hana while the girl removed her silver shoes.

"You just want to make her jealous...besides, you introduced me as a cousin to your friends. Good luck fixing that if we are to be really married." Hana then threw quotation marks in the air to emphasize her stattement.

"She's moving on without me. And I am here stuck in the same ground...unhappy, wishing I can turn back time." Hana scoots closer to him and wrapped her arms around his. Jung Kook then rests his head on her shoulder.

"That's the saddest part of moving on. You gotta do it alone..." Jung Kook smiled agreeing with her. "People close to you can help you as much but the moving on really is a constant decision you have to make everyday."

"Dang! Look at you getting philosophical." They both laughed. Hana brushed Jung Kook's hair when she felt tears on her skin.

"I can't believe my husband is crying about his mistress and I'm comforting him." Tears just continue to fell and Hana just brushed his hair listening to his sobs, her heart a bit broken that she cannot do much.

Minji resumed working after another week of leave. She was, as usual, early to have her access revoked as well as her passwords reset which she know will take a while given MC Enterprises' security policies.

Joey helped her in fixing her desk station regarding updates.

"Hey, J--joey. I forgot to thank you." Joey was about to leave her desk after it updated.

"What about, princess?" He looked at her.

"I..I heard that, you were like trying to avenge me." She smiled and Joey laughed.

"Send me a picture of your tits and we'll call it even." They both laughed. "Kidding, but thank you for looking out for Chul...you know the real Chul."
