"Right, what should I do?" Ever since that day, Beomgyu forbidden me from coming to the office and for some reason, I said yes to it. Maybe because I'm tired from all the drama and gossips I hear about myself

"Fei, what should we do today?"

"I want to play with dad" She pouted and crossed her arms. It's been a while since they last played with each other, Beomgyu has been busy

"Okay.. why don't we surprise him at the office?" Her face lit up and she ran to her room. Quickly after, she ran back, all ready to go. I chuckled at the sight and told her to wait for me

After I got ready, we left the apartment and walked to the office. I bumped into one of my coworkers on the way and she looked at me in shock "Yi Jie, perfect timing! Come on, you HAVE to see this"

She dragged me with her and when we stopped, what I witnessed was something very confusing. I saw Bomi, Beomgyu and the boys, cornering Dana

With the boss watching from afar, not doing anything but watch them do their thing. Bomi and the boys look like predators ready to attack their prey any second

"Uhm- guys? What's going on?" They all turned their attention to me and now all eyes in the room are on me

"Yi Jie! Perfect, you're here with- oh, OH- FEII" Bomi grins and picked Fei up. She made eye contact with Beomgyu, sending signals just from their stare and he seemed to pick up the signal as he gestures her to leave with Fei

"Beomgyu, what is going on?" I asked

"What do you think? We're exposing that bitch over there and we have strong proof. Yet she keeps denying with no evidence to show" He rolled his eyes when Dana pouted and tried to convince everyone in the room that she was innocent

She made eye contact with Jungmo and asked him to help. In which he refused. "Jungmo, you're my boyfriend you're supposed to be on my side!"

"Oh am I? Then why did you kiss Hojin the other night hm? You think just because I'm nice I wouldn't mind you kissing another guy? Heck no Dana, I'm tired of your bullshit" She was taken aback and her eyes searched the room and locked eyes with one person

"Hojin!" She pleaded, but instead of helping, he looked away and pretends to be busy. Now she's defenseless.

"UGH! Fine, show me your evidence, come on show me!" She challenges as Taehyun takes out his phone, increased the volume and displayed it for everyone in the room to see.

There showed a clear video of Dana, seemingly transferring the design I made to a little, white flashdrive. After doing so, she deletes the design on my computer and made her way out.

Then, it continued to show a clip of that night, the night that I slapped Dana but, the clip showed the complete scene. Plus the audio.

Dana's face turns red as she tries to stop Taehyun by grabbing his phone but nah, he held it above his head, so high that Dana couldn't reach it. I could hear whispers all around the room, Dana's denial just confirms everything that the video showed was real.

"Dana, you're fired" Finally after staying silent the whole time, the boss finally speaks up.

"No, don't" I said, which surprised Beomgyu. Of course, the purpose of all this was to expose Dana and ruin her but why now? No, I didn't change my mind, I still hate her very much. But, I pity her. Just a tiny bit of me, the rest still hate her.

"Don't fire her, instead.." I take off my staff ID and hand it to my boss "I'm quitting" I could hear my coworkers gasp. Everyone but Beomgyu. Instead, he smiled and gave a thumbs up.

"Thank you for the experience but seeing you believe Dana just by her words without any evidence just shows how incompetent you are as a boss" I smiled and bowed before grabbing Beomgyu's hand, running out of the room. Once we were out of the building, I fell to the ground. I can't believe I just did that. That was either the stupidest thing or the bravest thing I've ever done in my entire life.

Probably the stupidest. Now I'm jobless and still have to pay for a lot things. How wonderful Yi Jie. Should I just get another job somewhere? Or go back to China?

"Yi Jie, I know what you're thinking but you might wanna get up first. Everyone is staring at you" He held my hand and pulled me up to his embrace. I blushed and push him away gently.

"You know.. you can just make your own fashion brand"

"It's not easy Beomgyu. I have to start from zero. First, I need people, staff, in which I don't have. Second, how am I going to pay them? Third, high quality fabric and other tools are not cheap. Fourth-" He cover my mouth and shushes me.

He then says, "First, you have me, Bomi, and the boys. Second, we don't need to get paid. Third, if you look diligently, there are places that sell amazing quality fabrics and tools with low prices. Is that good enough?"

I rip his hand off my mouth and continued, "Fourth, you all are still in this company"

"Then we'll quit"

"You can't Beomgyu" I said

"Actually, we can" Kai appears out of nowhere and interrupts

"Yeah, I've been wanting to quit anyways" Bomi adds

"Guys, no- I mean- there's no guarantee that this brand will be successful at all"

"We know, Yi Jie. But hey, it's for the memories and experience" I stayed quiet, looking at the ground. "I'll think about it"

"And for the money, don't worry I'll take care of it" Beomgyu said, smiling at me. I shook my head, saying, "No, I'm not using your money"

"Who said I'll be using my money? We can get an investor, my mom for example" His mom? I thought he didn't have a good relationship with his family.

"While I convince my mom, why don't you think of a brand name"

"But gyu, I don't know if we should do this"

"You just lost your job and have plenty of things to pay. You join another company, another Dana may come and steal your design again. So, you sure you don't wanna do this?" I thought about it for a minute and I guess what he said was right. Getting a new job would probably take longer.

"Well.. it won't hurt to try I guess.."
