Lisa had been glaring out the window for 30 minutes now. The rain trickled down the windowpane. YongJoon poked her back from behind.

"Hey, what are you doing? You've been out of it for a while now."

"Don't bother me. Noona isn't in a very good mood right now."

"What, are you on your period or something?"

"It's been a while, hasn't it? Do you want to see some blood?"

Lisa fiercely glared at him, making YongJoon shut his mouth.

After SungHo disappeared, Serim had collapsed at a frighteningly fast rate. The mighty YongSung, which had had a strong hold on the economy thanks to KeumOh, was no exception. 1 year ago, all the leaders of YongSung were taken into custody. All that was left were the minor illegal companies that were involved in fraud and embezzlement. As these companies started to resurface, the police were busy putting them away one by one.

In the midst of all this, YongJoon quickly wiped his hand clean of criminal organizations and set up a detective agency. But then Lisa, who had worked with him at Serim, popped out of nowhere, set up her desk, and took her place at the agency even though he never asked her to. Back then, she had gone undercover and infiltrated the enemy organization YongSung in order to spy on a man. However, she hadn't known that he was actually an undercover cop and ended up sleeping with him. In the end, she fell in love with him as well.

But Park Lisa came with her own strengths. Despite her nasty personality, Lisa had a knack with customers. She had the ability to extract their souls.

They weren't only involved with finding missing people or tailing targets. Their services also included finding con artists and conning them back. After Lisa had joined the agency, she brought in enough customers to increase their revenue. They now made a hefty amount of money. It was largely thanks to her that they were even able to move into a bigger office, but...

"Don't just sit there. Go out and buy some strawberries. Our client will be here soon, and we need offer them some snacks."

Now matter how one looked at it, he was the president of the company. But as time went on, he felt as if their roles were reversing. Was he only imagining it?

"Hey, where can I find something like that in this season...!"

YongJoon raised his voice indignantly. Where was he supposed to find fruits that were out of season? Just as he raised his voice, the automatic doors burst open.

Welcome to Dragon J Agency. We strive to help you reach your happiness.

"Ah... that surprised me..."

The automatic doors slid open three times faster than your average door. The automatic welcome message blared out at twice the volume. The surprised woman flinched as she entered the office. Her hand was clenched against her chest. Lisa's lips stretched into a despicable smile as she burst out of her seat and went to greet the client.

"Welcome. Did you find this place okay?"

"Yes... I left early because of the rain, but it looks like I came here ahead of schedule... I'm sorry."

The meek woman hesitated to enter as she looked around. She was a client who had come 30 minutes early.

A month ago, this woman had commissioned work from them, but this was the first time Lisa and YongJoon had seen her face. Depending on the type of work they requested, the clients that came to them often didn't show their faces.

"The weather is quite bad today, so it must have been difficult for you to come to us. Well, I'm sure you came all the way here in order to seek out our expertise, isn't that right? I may look like a high schooler, but when it comes to this kind of work, it's my specialty. I'll give you a small discount on the retainer fee, so if you just say the word, I can have your husband kneeling before you as he begs..."
