Jennie is an assistant at Manoban Inc. She can't stand her job or her boss, Yang Hyunsuk, but she needs the money. One day she's finally had enough and ends up ranting in the elevator to a stranger who ends up to be no other than Lalisa Manoban. The...

Jennie was really trying to love her job. She was, but every single day when she woke up she dreaded getting ready to go to the company. She had been hired as an assistant for one of the marketing directors at Manoban Inc and he was horrid to work under.
Her boss was Yang Hyunsuk, and being his assistant meant going to get his coffee, breakfast and lunch every day. She sat and sorted through his papers and took calls to schedule his meetings. He was just a strict grump.
Her best friend Rosé worked under Nickhun who was just a step down from Hyunsuk, and she gushed to Jennie about how wonderful he was to have as a boss. Of course it was her luck to get the shittier one of the two.
She didn't have much passion for her job but it paid her well and she needed to get rid of her debt from student loans.
So that's where she was headed on this fine Wednesday morning. She had her purse hanging off her shoulder with two coffees- one in each hand.
Rosé usually walked into work with her, but the Aussie texted her this morning saying how she would be late. Of course, Nickhun was fine with it. That just irritated her even further. Since she had started four months ago, she was expected to be there right on time. One time she was seven minutes late and Hyunsuk yelled at her so much she got a second shower from all of his spit.
Stepping into the elevator she rolled her eyes when she saw the impossible amount of floors. 62 floors for one building had to be the most ridiculous thing she had ever seen. Make it 60, or 65. 62 was just a stupid number.
The blonde grumbled to herself under her breath as she rode up to floor 57 where she assumed Hyunsuk was already plotting ways to piss her off for the day.
Once she stepped off the elevator, she made her way to the large office where she could see Hyunsuk sitting at his desk through the glass door. Opening it, she knocked lightly on the wooden frame and when he looked up at her, he snorted.
"Only you would wear that to work," The older man jabbed at her. They didn't have a playful relationship, and she knew he was serious. She looked down at her dress and bit her tongue before she could say anything that would get her fired.
"I have your coffee," Jennie said, trying to put on her best assistant voice.
"Well, I sure hope so. That is your job," He retorted without even looking up at her.
Crossing the room, she took a deep breath and set it on his desk. Tomorrow she'd spit in his drink. What an asshole.
"Kim," Hyunsuk called as she went to walk away. She turned around to see he was looking at her from over the reading glasses he wore. "I put some files on your desk. I want them alphabetized before lunch." He flicked his pen in the direction of her desk which was just outside his office. That was her dismissal.
