Despite the amount of work Aaliyah had waiting for her the next day, none of that would be able to ruin her mood because all day the only person she had on her mind was Min-Joon. Everywhere she turned, there he was there, in her mind, smiling sweetly at her.

That morning, as she worked on answering some emails, from the corner of her eye, for a moment she thought she saw a raven haired figure that resembled Min-Joon in the elevator. She assumed it was nothing more than her mind playing tricks on her, so she continued to work on her emails as normal. However, when she heard the sound of a co-worker yelling for someone to hold the elevator, she lifted her head out of unconscious curiosity to see who's voice it was. While watching her co-worker run to the elevator, she caught a glimpse at the man in the black suit, who stood in the elevator and came to the realization that it was Min-Joon. The elevator door closed and her co-worker cursed annoyed before walking towards the staircase.

"Min-Joon?" She whispered to herself. She from her seat and walked over to the elevator. As she stood in front of the closed metal doors, she watched the floor numbers continue to go up until they stopped at the top floor. Stared at the number bewildered since the only thing thing on that floor was the CEO's office. She soon remembered that he mentioned meeting the CEO the last time he came to the company building. She simply shrugged, deciding not to worry about it, and went back over to her desk where she focused on finishing her emails.

Min-Joon stood in the elevator, watching the floor levels increase. He was dress well per usual, in a black suit with a satin button up underneath that had the top 4 buttons undone and Dior black leather derby shoes. As he waited to reach the top floor, Min-Joon pressed the button on his earpiece making sure that Alexander and Hassan could hear.

"Hassan? Alexander?" He said before he waited for them to give some sort of response. It didn't take long because right after he spoke, Alexander responded with his amusing style.

"Seven days," he said in a creepy, voice scratching tone quoting his favourite horror movie. Hassan smacked Alexander in the back of the head before grabbing the phone out of the Alexander's hand, which Alexander is now using to try and soothe the sharp pain in the back of his head.

"We're here, boss. Sorry for that,"Hassan said as he glared over at Alexander, who's doing the same towards him.

"At least it wasn't what's your favourite movie," Min-Joon said ending with a chuckle.

"That one's over used," He heard Alexander shout from the other line.

"Is it done?" Min-Joon asked, redirecting the conversation back to reason for why they were there.

"Yes. We, actually more like I, disable the cameras. We just have to make the call and then everything will be ready for you to go," he said.

"I'm almost there, so make it now," Min-Joon said before clicking off. Alexander heard Min-Jon's order and smiled mischievously. Hassan took notice of this and tried to pick up the phone first, but Alexander already had it in his grasp before he got the chance. Alexander dialled the CEO's secretary's number and waited while it rung, until she picked it up. Hassan didn't fight with Alexander over it because he knew he'd probably be the most equipped to do it since Alexander could not only mimic people's voices and tones, but he could also copy there mannerism off of speaking with them for five minutes. Thankfully for them, Alexander has already had an interaction with Daniel during their first time scoping out the building.

"Mr.Benson's office, Leila speaking."

"Hi Leila, it's Daniel," he said smiling as he looked down at the real Daniel, knocked out cold.

"Oh hey, Daniel. What's up?"

"I was wondering if we could talk?"

"Talk? About what," she asked completely oblivious to the fact that not only was she not talking to the real Daniel, but that she was being watched by them too. They noticed that she tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear and bit her lip.
