Hyunjin immediately stood up after humming in acknowledgement to Ruby's words.

"Let The Game Begin". His voice echoed in the ears of Ruby and Jay who smirked.

It was already time for the After party.

Jay walked quietly heading to the surveillance system room, making sure he doesn't appear suspicious to outside view since there are still people in the security room.

"Jay someone's coming from the security room towards your direction and there's no excuse as to why you appeared in that vicinity, there's a blind spot right beside you, two steps backward, turn and face your left side and walk five steps forward". Ruby's voice cut through the communication device in alarm.

Jay followed her instructions perfectly making him able to hide from the camera and the person walking towards him.

He made to step out after the person walked by but was stopped by Ruby's urgent voice.

"Don't walk out yet there's many others coming through. There's a commotion in the main hall, I think there's something going on there".

"Sam?". Ruby called out.

"Shit!". Hyunjin cursed.

"What's going on?". Jay whispered trying not to get himself exposed.

"There's an assassination attempt on Bae Jinsol". Hyunjin informed them, they all felt perplexed by this turn of events.

"An assassination on one of the main celebrity of the ball in front of so many people? It doesn't make sense". Ruby reasoned glancing at the footage of the main hall and indeed the hall was tense and crowded.

"You both should carry on with the mission, Jay watch out for any potential danger, you might have a guest in the security room. Ruby keep your eyes on the Power Station footage, the security room and the main hall, notify me of any changes, also keep your eyes out for any strange movements from the other footages. I feel like the commotion in the main hall is a distraction to what might pose a big threat to our plan". He concluded designing the tasks effortlessly due to years of being in charge.

Hyunjin walked out of the main hall with Bae Jinsol, he was the one that has saved her from the attempted assassination on her life.

"Thank you". She muttered bowing in gratitude when they got outside.

Hyunjin just waved her off "You're on your own now, I still have an unfinished business inside, so I will get going". He turned to walk back inside when she stopped him by pulling his arm.

Hyunjin glanced at the arm she's pulling on before glancing at her and she immediately let go with a nervous chuckle.

"Is there anything I can help with?". She offered and Hyunjin narrowed his eyes in suspicion.

"No, no it's not what you're thinking, I'm just grateful and want to repay you for your kindness, so if there's anything I can do to help you with your unfinished business just tell me and I will do my best to get it done". The glint in her eyes showed that she knows exactly what his unfinished business is.

Hyunjin reacted immediately pining her to the wall "How much do you know?". His voice dangerously low.

"Enough to put you in jail for at least five years".

Hyunjin's eyes turned cold.

"But that's not why I made the offer, I want to help you complete your mission and in return you will help me get revenge".

Hyunjin was puzzled, she's well aware he could kill her to silence her but she still choose to tell him what she knew.

"Deal?". She extended her hand towards him.
