Jongseong entered the house to find he was in darkness. The only light available was the hallway since it was motion sensored.

"She's still not out?" He proceeded to turn on the light and made his way to the kitchen along with his luggage. Everything was still in place as he left them this morning. Jongseong leaned against the kitchen counter, looking at his phone. He was about to send a message to Hyunjae but paused to read their conversation again.

| Hyung, I'm worried of Haneul | From: Jongseong

| It's okay. She's in that phase again | From: Hyunjae Hyung

| Phase? | From: Jongseong

| She's usually like that when it is almost her manuscript deadline. She's still alive no worry | From: Hyunjae Hyung

| She'll come out from her room when she's ready. Just give her a few more days | From: Hyunjae Hyung

Jongseong sighed. "Is it really okay not eating and getting out of the room like that?" He stared into blank space before deciding. "That's it!" He pushed himself off the counter and began to prepare to cook dinner for both of them. Jongseong put her dinner on the tray and brought it to her room. He knocked on the door with one hand and the other hand holding the tray filled with food. He heard no sound on the other side of the door.

"Haneul?" he called and waited but still no sound. He held the door knob but hesitated to open it since it would breach their agreement. Jongseong sighed. He put the tray of food down in front of her door.

| I made some dinner. I left them in front of your door. Eat up | From: Jongseong

| And I'll be out of town for a few days for a photoshoot. Take care | From: Jongseong

He heard her phone received the messages and a slight rustling of things inside but that is it. No reply to the message.

Jongseong sighed for the umpteenth time. He decided to leave her alone.

The next day, he was about to enter the car to start the journey when his phone received messages.

| I enjoyed the food thank u, Jongseong. Take care and good luck for the photoshoot | From: Haneul

A smile appeared on his lips. He put his phone aside "Let's go shall we?"

The office was dark at night. No one was there. It was quiet there. A shadow loomed on the office table. An office laptop was at the center of the table. The unknown figure reached out to the laptop, turned it on only to face the password entry page. A series of passwords is entered then a usb drive is inserted at one of the ports. Right then the screen turned blank then a series of code ran through the screen before a loading bar appeared, copying all data in the laptop into the usb.

"What do you mean my office is raided?!" Jongseong was pissed, his brows furrowed together. Few photoshoot staff around heard him and looked at each other. "How did they manage to get past the security cameras?! Are you serious!?"

"They used a fake ID and a fake account and got in through the front door undetected...." Jungwon on the other line mumbled nervously. Jongseong massaged his forehead. His fingers were trembling in anger.

"...Did you report it to my father?"

"Wahhhh! We couldn't!! It's a huge problem! Chairman will definitely fire our asses!"

Jongseong snorted. "You know what, just tell my father first. I'll come as soon as I can to sort this out"

"Alright. Nothing is missing from your office. Just..." "What is it?" "Your laptop"
