"Sajangnim, there's a lady waiting for you at the front desk."

Min Ho sent his most lethal glare at his secretary, "Yuri-ssi, I've clearly requested a thirty minutes break! Which part of it that you don't understand? Didn't you see me reading these piles of proposals all morning?"

"Choesong hamnida, Sajangnim. But I was only informing you there's a guest asking to meet you. I'll gladly shoo her away in a second. As for the proposals, I believe it's my job to ensure you to sign everything within the deadline."

"Aish! Ahra! I've already ordered my lunch. If you dare let me take another "urgent" phone call, I'm going to cut your pay!"

"You can't. I know the best lawyer in town, Sajangnim."

Yuri winked and left his room.

Three minutes later, as Min Ho tried to digest a proposal about the new SHE policy, his secretary called him again.

"What now???"

"I deeply apologize, Sajangnim. But this lady here is very persistent. She said I might lose my job if I manage to make her leave."

"Ne???"

He thought for a bit.

Is it one of his exes who came for redemption? Oh, crap. I hope no one is pregnant or something. I always use the best protection. If she knows.......

"What's her name?"

"A Miss Kim Go Eun"

"What the hell are you waiting for??? Bring her in!!!"

Kim Go Eun walked in soon after that, all smiles in her blue jeans, high heels, and a sleeveless black shirt. She had a sunglasses on top of her head, and a shopping bag of new clothes in one hand.

"Hey, Oppa."

Min Ho was so ridiculously happy to see her there he didn't even know what to say.

"I just had a shopping spree, spending 25% of my salary. Feels so good!"

She looked around with evident interest around his office, before sitting in front of him.

"Go Eun-ah. You're here!"

"Stop looking like a lovesick puppy, will you? I'm just dropping by to eat lunch with you. If you have time, that is."

"Of course I do! What would I not do for you, right?"

"Yah. Quit the cheesy lines. I'm not going to let you bang me on this desk, ok?"

"I wasn't asking."

"You don't want to?"

"Do you?"

"No" she said flatly, and he grinned at her.

He was so ecstatic he could jump her right there. The last he heard was she was planning to idle around watching dramas. And then she surprised him like this.

"You have a very pretty and efficient secretary."

"She's my lawyer's girl" he informed quickly.

"Oh, I see. No secret escapades with her, then?"

"Nope. I never take a friend's yeoja."

"Hem......."

"Go Eun-ah?"
