The bustling atmosphere of the office seemed to echo Eunha's internal turmoil as she grappled with the realization that things had taken an unexpected turn with Taehyung. Her initial goal had been simple - secure a job to support her family. However, the complexities of their shared history had now woven a web of tension between them.

As Eunha navigated her new role within the company, she couldn't shake off the unease that had settled within her. The professional relationship with Taehyung felt like a minefield of unresolved issues, and she found herself yearning for a way to navigate this complex terrain.

Determined to address the matter head-on, Eunha approached Jimin, a figure of authority in the office. "Sir, can I talk to Mr. Cheater, I mean, the one who selected me?" she asked, attempting a playful jab at Taehyung. Jimin, accustomed to the unique dynamics within the office, looked at her with a mix of amusement and curiosity. "His office is down the hall, you can go in," he directed, allowing her to proceed with her quest for clarification.

As Eunha approached Taehyung's office, a mix of nerves and determination churned within her. She took a deep breath before knocking on the door. A voice from within called out, "Come in." Eunha pushed the door open and entered, her eyes meeting Taehyung's as she bowed in a gesture of respect.

"What are you doing here?" Taehyung inquired, his tone a mix of curiosity and skepticism. Eunha straightened up and looked at him, determined to confront the elephant in the room. "I am here to ask why did you hire me?" she questioned, her eyes locking onto his.

Taehyung, with a smirk playing on his lips, replied nonchalantly, "Because you're a talented woman." Eunha, not one to back down, cut straight to the point. "I know why you hired me," she asserted, her voice tinged with a mixture of frustration and defiance.

Taehyung raised an eyebrow, a hint of amusement in his eyes. "And why, miss?" he inquired, playing along with the unfolding drama. Eunha, however, was undeterred. "You want to take revenge," she accused, her words hanging in the air.

A chuckle escaped Taehyung's lips, catching Eunha off guard. "I didn't think of that, but it's a good idea," he admitted, the smirk on his face growing more pronounced. Eunha, feeling a surge of frustration, decided to take matters into her own hands.

"I'm not going to be trapped, so I'm leaving this job. I'm not going to work for you," Eunha declared, her stance unwavering. Taehyung, surprising her with his nonchalant response, simply looked at her and said, "Nice, good then."

With that, Eunha turned on her heel and left Taehyung's office, her mind a whirlwind of conflicting emotions. As she walked away, Taehyung remained seated, watching her departure with a contemplative expression. The door closed behind her, leaving an unresolved tension lingering in the room.

In the aftermath of their brief confrontation, Eunha grappled with the consequences of her decision. The job she had sought for the sake of her family had slipped through her fingers due to the intricacies of a personal history she never anticipated confronting.

Eunha's recent decisions and the realization of losing the job lingered heavily on her shoulders. In a moment of vulnerability, Taehyung sighed, breaking the silence in his office. "Tough girl, I guess," he mumbled, the words carrying a hint of acknowledgment for the resilience Eunha displayed.

Meanwhile, As the night wore Eunha, feeling a mix of frustration and sadness, decided to seek solace in the company of her friend Liela. She reached for her phone, dialing Liela's number. After a few rings, Liela picked up, her voice filled with concern. "What happened?" she asked.
