The sun had just risen, casting a warm golden hue across the bustling city of Seoul.
The office of Savor & Spices was already alive with activity, as employees prepared for another day of managing one of the most successful food companies in South Korea.
Mingyu and Jihoon were huddled together near the coffee machine in the break room.
Their voices were low, but their conversation was urgent.
"I don't know how much longer we can keep this from him."
Jihoon whispered, glancing around to ensure no one was within earshot.
His usually composed demeanor was cracked by a layer of concern.
Mingyu nodded, running a hand through his hair in frustration.
"I agree, but what are we supposed to do? If we tell sir now, he'll be furious that we didn't come to him sooner."
Jihoon sighed, leaning back against the counter.
"I just don't want Jeonghan hyung to be in any more trouble than he already is. And his mother, this situation could escalate quickly if we're not careful."
Unbeknownst to them, Seungcheol had walked into the break room just as the conversation took a more serious turn.
He had come for a quick cup of coffee to clear his mind, but instead, he found himself standing just out of their line of sight, overhearing words that immediately piqued his concern.
Jeonghan? Trouble? What are they talking about?
Seungcheol took a deep breath and stepped forward, making his presence known.
"Mingyu, Jihoon, what's going on?"
Both men jumped slightly, their faces betraying a mixture of surprise and guilt.
Mingyu quickly composed himself, while Jihoon's eyes flickered with unease.
"Uh, nothing, sir. We were just talking about some, uh, personal stuff."
Mingyu said, attempting to downplay the situation. But Seungcheol wasn't buying it.
"Personal stuff?"
Seungcheol repeated, crossing his arms as he looked between the two of them.
"You were talking about Jeonghan and trouble. What kind of trouble?"
Jihoon glanced at Mingyu, unsure of how to respond.
The last thing they wanted was to burden Seungcheol with more worries, especially considering how much he already had on his plate.
But Seungcheol wasn't going to let this go, not when it involved Jeonghan.
Before either of them could respond, Joshua appeared in the doorway, having sensed the tension from across the hall.
