Seulgi's POV

I'm currently in the office. I'm late, but more importantly, I can't keep up with Irene.

"Hey! You're late again! You're getting late these days, hmm," snorted Seungwan.

I ignored him and went straight to my desk. He followed me and leans at the door. "Kang Seulgi! I'm talking to you, why dond chu anser meh!" He jokingly said.

I laughed and shook my head. "No, I just woke up really late. What's wrong?" I asked him as I noticed the surroundings were quiet and everyone was focused on their work.

The atmosphere was different today than it had been in the past. No one spoke, and no one approached anyone else's desk. They appear to be very serious, which makes me wonder.

He scratched his head. "Ah, your wife came here." He whispered.

I frowned. "Why did she come here?" I'm curious.

"She was looking for you, that's why she got angry. The two women I mentioned earlier who, like you, were gossiping, she heard it; she was so angry, Dude, that's the type of person you don't want to get angry with." He paused to take a breath. He appears to be recalling the earlier incident because he is still terrified.

I followed through on my earlier promise. I waited for her to leave before leaving the room, and then I went to 7/11 and bought a small can of Pringles to ensure that we wouldn't be together.

Earlier after I went upstairs, I heard a knock on the door and she ordered me to go with her to the office. But since I'm still mad at her, I chose to stay in the room first and wait for her to leave.

I heard a knock on the door earlier after I went upstairs, and she told me to accompany her to the office. But, because I'm still angry at her, I chose to stay in the room and wait for her to leave first.

She must have assumed I had already left because I left no trace of my stuff outside, including my shoes. I could even hear her hurrying to get into her car. Besides, I just left the house when I knew she wouldn't return.

"What does the gossiper have to do with it? Why is she so angry?" I asked.

For a long time, Seungwan has claimed that our two female coworkers like me. But I don't believe it because I don't look like a likeable person.

The obvious reason she became enraged was that they were gossiping. But knowing Irene, she doesn't want to talk during the workday.

"Because they are talking about you, Seul. I heard earlier that they were planning to invite you out to eat, but we were just surprised when she command the two to stand and gave us a lot of work. All of the works is due today. If they don't pass all the works to her today, she's going to fired them. We wouldn't have been also involve if their friend hadn't complained. That's why the ending is, we all have to do the work and pass it today. Your wife is terrible, Dude! Her attitude hurts in my muscle brain!" He said.

"Then her aura was very scary earlier. It was like she was strangling someone. I will never forget what happened earlier, that's the first time my hair stood up." He continued while rubbing his arms.

Really? Why so? Maybe because I didn't follow what she wanted us to be together so she got hot-headed. But she's always hot-headed.

"Help me Seul, so I can finish quickly. I will treat you, I promise. By the way, there is something you haven't told me yet. Why did you suddenly disappear? I called you and you didn't answer. I waited for so long there!" He said annoyed.

I apologized to him right away. "It's a long story again, which I'll tell you later, and that's why I can't answer you or answer you because my cellphone, the touch screen one, is broken, and the only thing I have is a keypad, but I don't know your number. So please forgive me if I haven't called you again," I explained.

My phone did break when I threw it. I still have a keypad, so it's fine; I rarely use my other phone because I prefer watching TV at home.

I also don't want to buy a new phone because it will be a waste of money. Besides, the only reason I use the touch screen is for Jennie and Seungwan.

"By the way, Ms. Bae said you should come to her office. She told me earlier, when you're not here."

"Let's just finish what you're doing. I'll help you." I quickly change the topic, we'll talk about it later. I have no intention of going, maybe something else will happen.

"Seulgi! Don't you dare move! Or else I'll drag you." She exclaimed. Because I'm UNDERstanding, I followed her.

I still had my back to her so she came and pulled my hand. "Let's go!" She said annoyed.

She has a strong grip and the nail also starts to dig in. I was going to remove it but I feel that she's already angry.

She let go of my hand once we got to her private elevator. Since she is the CEO, she has her own use that is separate from us employees.

Then she pushes me against the wall and encircles her arms around my nape. "You've been pissing me off since yesterday and I hate that! Why are you still ignoring me? What do you want me to do huh? I even said sorry but you're still ignoring me!" She exclaimed. She held my face and made me look at her.

Because I'm still mad at her. I gave her a cold look. I noticed that she was stunned but still couldn't get rid of the annoyance on her face.

I've been ignoring her since yesterday, I've done all possible ways to avoid her.

Just like yesterday, she called me to the office but I didn't go so she went to our department again. I immediately hide under my desk so she didn't see me.

Then lunchtime came and she actually went to our cafeteria to look for me. I immediately speed up the food and choose the other way around.

Even when it's time for us to go home. She commanded us to stay in our department, and knowing that I was her target, I immediately asked for an excuse and went to the comfort room until I saw her pass by.

There is a comfort room opposite our dep, and you can see from there who is going to or passing by our dep.

I immediately left the cr after seeing her pass through. I didn't even get to say goodbye to Seungwan because I didn't go back in the office. I can't even text him because his number hasn't been saved in my keypad phone.

Then a while ago, she was really standing outside my room. I was even surprised, because when I opened the door, I was greeted by her frowning face. But of course I'm strong, so I walk past her that I know makes her angry and go to the kitchen.

She even bought me lunch so we can eat together but since I don't really want to talk to her, I grab the food and say thanks then head out. I still remember the surprise on her face before I headed out.

And that lead us to now. I would have really gone home since work hours were over if Wan didn't stop me. He said he will introduce the 2 girls in our dep who likes me.

Unfortunately, Irene caught up with me so here we are, in the elevator. Her face looks like she really wants to kill someone, so I don't have a choice and follow her. I still love my life though.

"I told you, don't bother me or talk to me because I still can't forget what you did." I coldly said. I was about to remove her hands when she tightened her grip on it.

"Remove your hands, Irene. I still need something to do."

I was surprised when she cried and laid her head on my chest. "I-I'm sorry... Please d-don't ignore me, it hurts my heart." I could hardly understand what she said because of her cries.

Her grip became tighter.

"Bear, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to ignore you for d-days. I-I was thinking, okay? Because I realized something. I like you." My eyes widen at what she said. It was as if I was frozen in place and my brain could not process what she said. Is it true?

"Kang Seulgi, I like you." With that my heart explode.
