Narrator's POV:
One can only dream of having a life of this much luxury. Fancy cars, butlers, personal chefs, and a castle-like estate to live in was a billionaire's life, and Minho was born right into it.
Hyunmin sighed as he sat on his boss's seat, filling out some papers carefully, and taking his time with them. While sitting on the chair, he felt some sort of power; it was tempting, though it was temporary.
All of a sudden, the doors of the large office were pushed open and three of Minho's higher-ranked staff walked in, along with a woman who he knew as the wife of the captain of the osprey.
Hyunmin stood up, bowing gently, before walking over to them. They bowed too in response and one of them spoke up.
"Sir, we're worried that the osprey hadn't returned," The male said, and the other three nodded in agreement. Hyunmin furrowed his eyebrows, tilting his head a bit.
"Yes, Boss said he'd return by nightfall, he strictly told us to contact his butlers to prepare a bath for him too," Another male said and Hyunmin nodded, thinking about it all a bit.
The captain's wife then stepped forward. "My husband promised he'd return tonight, he was supposed to drop off the workers and come by nightfall with Mr.Lee, though he didn't," She said, her tone starting to get more worrying.
"Do you think something must've happened?" She asked, her expression soft and worried.
Hyunmin's face softened and he smiled reassuringly at her.
"Maybe they decided to camp there because of the weather. The captain is a good man, he wouldn't risk it by traveling back if the weather isn't good" He said in a reassuring tone and the people seemed a bit relieved for a moment, but were still unsure.
"And well... though Minho did tell me not to peck for him, I did, so you guys don't need to worry too much," Hyunmin said softly, looking at the three staff who nodded and smiled a little.
"I guess this is why he put you in charge," One of the males said, chuckling a bit. Hyunmin nodded, smiling warmly before turning to the woman who still seemed slightly unsure.
"Ma'am... how about we try contacting them tomorrow morning? The captain does have a satellite phone but if there's a thunderstorm between them and us, it might be hard" Hyunmin explained.
The woman sighed, nodding at the suggestion.
"Yes... please do." She muttered and smiled a bit.
Hyunmin nodded warmly and gestured them to the door. "Please don't stress, alright? And ma'am, please take some rest, we'll contact the island tomorrow" Hyunmin confirmed them as they walked out, giving him polite smiles.
Once they walked out, the man sighed and turned around, looking at the desk he was sitting on. Even the desk had a bit of gold pieces here and there. Sell it, and you'd make a fortune out of it too.
Hyunmin walked back to the seat, calmly beginning to scribble writings on the paper once more, and then paused his pen over the two lines where it needed to be filled with the company owner's name and signature.
Letting out a small sigh, he wrote his own name and his temporary status; "Owner of Lee Corp." and signed it before placing the pen down.

Help.
How did I end up in this awkward situation?
I had walked through the forest for a while, trying to find a good shelter, and found a tiny cave at the edge of the forest, close to the beach. But when I glance back at the girl who I was carrying- I saw that she was asleep.
Now what?
How am I supposed to wake her up? Should I wake her up?
I looked down at her once again and saw how calm of a state she was in. She was peaceful right now. So I dropped her onto the grass below my feet.
And yes, I know that'd be an unpleasant way to wake up, but my job was to carry her until I find a shelter, not to let her sleep in my arms. And the ground wasn't that hard either.
I heard her yelp and turned my head to look at her. Her eyes widened, stunned a bit. She looked up at me, frowning as she wiped her sleepy eyes. "Hey, what was that for!?" She asked in an annoyed tone, getting up to her feet.
I rolled my eyes in response and pointed at the small cave I found- I doubt you could even call it a cave. It was probably smaller than a prison cell.
Her gaze followed the direction I was pointing and once she saw the opening, she lets out a soft sigh before turning around at me.
"Wow, you actually found a shelter," She said. I raised an eyebrow at her.
Did she think I wouldn't be capable of such a task?
I gave a stern look before walking my way into the small cave, finding myself a large rock to sit on and finally resting my legs. She walked in a few seconds later, sitting a bit further away from me, on another rock.
I sighed, looking around, finding that it was dark inside. There wasn't really any light source except the one from the darkening night sky. Only a few stars appeared as most were covered up by storm clouds.
"We need to make a fire..." I said, glancing at Hyeji for a moment. She nodded, looking around as if she was trying to find something. I furrowed my eyebrows as I watched her.
What was she searching for? Some stones to help light up a fire? There are stones right in front of her- is she blind?
I sighed, shaking my head as I walked over to the entrance, picking some dry twigs and leaves that were luckily nearby. I brought them into the cave, forming a pile before picking up two stones from the ground.
"I thought you were smart, you don't even know this can light up a fire?" I said, grinning at Hyeji. She looked at me, raising an eyebrow before frowning a bit.
I let out a small laugh in response. I knew she was probably mad because I knew something she didn't. She was always like that anyway. She never agrees that I'm right.
"Watch and learn," I said before hitting the stones together, creating a motion that I saw in movies that would normally strike a fire. But all it did was give off a 'click' sound.
Hyeji snickered quietly and I turned to her, frowning.
"Hey, Let me try again," I said before trying once, trying to create a spark. Though it didn't work again. I knew she was holding in a laugh and gave her a small glare before sighing.
I concentrated on the stones, calming myself more before trying again. The third time's a charm, right? Well, maybe not. Maybe the fourth- or the fifth. I kept trying and trying again until I gave up, throwing the stones away.
"Well, that was embarrassing." I heard Hyeji say as she stood up from the stone she sat on. I rolled my eyes, looking away from her, grumbling her words mockingly.
Why did I have to be stuck with her out of all people?
