Agent || PJM ✔️ (COMPLETE)

Me: And that concludes today's report, boss.

Boss: I see. So you'll be pretending to be his soon-to-be fiancee... That makes it easier to formulate a plan of action going forward, but... Your increased proximity to the target does concern me. Please be cautions. You can't let him turn the tables on you.

Me: Come on, Boss.. Do you have any idea how many aliases I've assumed since joining the EAC?

Boss: I know, and that's a fair point... But I expect a lot out of my best actress.

If I were to let my emotions get the best of me and reveal myself to Jimin, that would be the end for me. When boss says I can't let Jimin turn the tables on me, he's not joking. I'm ruminating on my own dangerous position when a call from Jimin interrups my thoughts.

Me: This is a surprise. I didn't expect you to get in touch so soon.

Jimin: When I asked you to dress up, you really took it to heart.

Jimin spits, glaring at my unusually flamboyant outfit. Well, we've already made our deal... And this guy detests anything unnecessary. I can guess what my first task will be. Today will probably be the day he officially introduces me to his employees. Which is precisely why I've chosen such a feminine outfit. My usual clothes are little too severe for such an occasion. They're fine for a businesswoman, but they're a little too drab for my current rose as a "girlfriend". Still, no one would take me seriously if I wore something too gaudy...

Me: What do you think? Not too much, but not too little... Do I look like a woman who belongs at your side?

Jimin: ....

Here we go again.. Meh, whatever. His silence is tacit approval.

Jimin: As you guessed, I will be introducing you to the board of directors today.

Me: Understood. Let's make sure this goes well.

Secretary: Sir...

Just then, there's a polite knock at the door. Jimin waves the secretary in and, speaking calmly, she states...

Secretary: It's nearly time.

Jimin: Alright.

Gazing my way, Jimin gives me a little nod. I'm not really his girlfriend, and I'm never going to be engaged to him, but I've got to be even more convincing than a real girlfriend in the eyes of his employees. Everything depends on how well I'll be able to pull this off. I've got make this happen.

Jimin: So, I'd like to take this opportunity to make an introduction. This is Song Areum. We have plans to be engaged.

Me: Hello, everyone. I'm Song Areum. It's an honor to meet you all.

I politely bow, and a buzz rises up in the room.

Executive 1: Wait just a minute. What happen to your engagement to the CEO of J-Cloud's daughter...?

Executive 2: That was called off, remember? Still sir... Calling off one engagement only annouce another one so soon after...

Jimin: I understand your concern completely. I have no plans to publicly announce our relationship any time soon. In fact, I'd like to keep news of today's introduction within the company.

Executive 3:  I see, well. This is too sudden, but you haven't had much luck with any of the engagements we've attempted to arrage... So the fact that you've found a woman you feel you can be serious about is probably cause for celebration.
