Still Chaeyoung could admit privately that she admired Mina's resolve.
"What would you have told her?" She ask the brunette
"What?"
"Somi, What would you have told her if I hadn't interrupted?"
"Oh, Only that you haven't done anything wrong and that I'm not some flavor of the week trying to take advantage of her sister."
"Or the Son's family fortune" Chaeyoung adds
"That's also true but if you think that was her main reason for being angry then you weren't paying attention." Mina responds
Stun and curious Chaeyoung takes a step forward and open her mouth to shoot off a reply.
"Chaeyoung" Tzuyu's voice was measured and firm.
Chaeyoung snap her mouth shut in silent acknowledgement. Tzuyu was just as observant as she was and had undoubtedly come to the same conclusion over Mina's state of near collapse. Whatever Tzuyu thought of the situation and Chaeyoung's agreement to go along with it, she was a naturally considerate person.
"We have a lot to talk about" she states "But that can wait until tomorrow I'll show you to your room."
Chaeyoung heads for the stairs and then stop when another thought occur to her, the fillet mignon.
She turn to Tzuyu. "Sunmi has a plate for you in the kitchen."
Tzuyu knew Chaeyoung well enough to pick up on the smile that wasn't quite there. The bodyguard purses her lips in her own version of a not-smile and nods once before leaving.
Chaeyoung had already turn and resumes her trek to the stairs so she miss the way Mina's brow furrows at their exchange.
She didn't speak as she led Mina down the mansion's wide halls.
Mina's footsteps drag across the carpet, an audible reminder of the exhaustion that must be eating away at her.
Chaeyoung slows her pace remembering Somi's nagging about how fast she walk despite being the short one.
Chaeyoung had used the drive home to contemplate some of the more easily solved predicaments of this situation. The sleeping arrangements had been one of the first issues she'd resolved and of course it felt wrong sharing the same bed with a stranger despite the sham marriage.
She steps into the empty bedroom next to hers.
"This will be your room" she informs the woman behind her "The en-suite bathroom is over there. It should be stocked with fresh towels."
Mina nods, she scans the room and briefly entertained the idea of telling Chaeyoung how fancy, beautiful and large it was but she wasn't certain that she had the energy to carry on a conversation, she was truly drained.
Then she caught sight of another door, set into the wall opposite hers it was open.
"Where does that go?"
