"IT's nothing. You were saying?" Nari said, looking back at him.

She felt so disheartened. 'Why did I even come here?' She thought, tapping her finger on the table.

"Nari? I was saying, I don't mind whatever you want to do. It'd be an honour to finalise our engagement," The suitor said.

 Nari looked at him surprisingly, "What?" She mumbled.

He gave her a small smile and Nari hesitated to speak. "But... I have a soulmate," She whispered.

Her eyes wandered back to the tables, her eyebrows scrunching up anxiously. She didn't know how she could miss someone in such a short amount of time of knowing them.

"That's fine, we can work around that," The man said, shrugging it off.

Looking at him, Nari caught someone behind the suitor- a maroon suit coming into view. Nari's shoulders rose as her eyes came into contact with a familiar man.

Jisung raised his eyebrows, staring straight back into her warm gaze. Nari's breath hitched, watching as Jisung stared back at her, charming everyone around him as he sat quietly.

A small smile appeared on his lips and Jisung averted his gaze, his heartbeat echoing through his body. He could feel his ears heat up, fidgeting with a butter knife on the table.

He cleared his throat, trying to keep his mind clear and concentrate on his job. Nari glanced at her plate, giddiness rising through her.

Jisung fixed his tie, hearing a few people around whispering about him.

"Who is he? A new businessman? He's cute!"

"Wow, he's so handsome!"

"I wonder if he's single."

'This isn't how it's supposed to go.' Jisung thought, sighing.

Jisung woke up to a loud knock on his door and groggily walked over opening the door. He saw Sung-min's assistant which made him look at the man confusingly.

"Uh... isn't the runway show later?" Jisung muttered, rubbing his eyes.

"Miss Kang will be going on a date first. Boss wants you to keep an eye on her." The assistant said.

Jisung straightened his back, immediately waking up. The assistant handed a file and Jisung took it.

"Boss suspects that the man Nari will be meeting, might be from an opposing group."

Jisung nodded, understanding what he meant. He took the paper out of the folder, reading the details about the man.

"If things go south... what do you want me to do?" Jisung asked.
