She had to keep on with her act a bit more, just a little bit. She had been repeating herself that since she had left her apartment and now that she was getting ready to go inside the Dinasty building she knew that she would have been overwhelmed with hundreds of thoughts, rumors, opinions on what to do and not do. She had heard the radio, it was a topic of discussion even there, and the fans outside the restricted access area were at least a hundred. It would have been stressful, but for a good reason. She kept on walking through the hall and her secretary, followed by her assistance, reached her immediately.

I hope your father has already told you this, Miss, it is really a huge problem!

Said the secretary giving her a tablet with what seemed a video ready to be played. A report from some local network, or perhaps even a YouTube video. It had to have happened while she was sleeping.

You know what happens if you pass me my father's problems.

She growled at her moving the tablet away while walking.

I don't handle them, let alone solve them.

The elevator arrived, the two girls behind her, she had to go to her father's office, she knew that, but she had to keep on acting until she was sure she could overreach herself. She sighed.

Miss Kang, I was told to inform you.

Stuttered her secretary, while the assistant kept her eyes on the floor, looking as if she wanted to disappear into it, as if the reason of that confusion was her.

My father will inform me, let him show me he is a CEO less incompetent than he already is at being a father.

She burst out ending the discussion. The hallway was full of people, her father was not receiving just one person. It seemed as if all Dinasty was squeezed inside the hallway to his office. Incredibly, since there wasn't any space, the crowd still let her through. Seulgi walked over meeting the eyes of some members of Nebulae and pursed her lips. She pushed the door, speaking out loud so that, not only the people inside the room, but even the ones outside, could hear her.

Father tell me that Nebulae have nothing to do with this or, you have my word, it's the last time I warn you about the little professionality of your artists.

The scene was pathetic, but instead of laughing as if she was possessed she pretended to be surprised, and maybe she was. In front of her stood her father, but also Jongin and Doyeon, which meant the two of them had already been summoned. The situation was exciting. Sure that Nebulae had heard her words, she shut the door behind her back, leaving the murmur of the employees outside. The room was extremely quiet.

Please don't just stand there, can someone tell me what's going on?

She flashed her eyes on Doyeon.

Why am I not surprised of seeing you here?

The young girl looked first at Seulgi's father, then at the floor. It was clear that she wanted to talk, but probably she didn't know what to say or, maybe, Seulgi's presence terrified her. Better that way. The less she would talk, the less explanation she would give, that way it was less likely for Doyeon to turn out as actually innocent. She smacked her lips, looking at Jongin.

On the other hand you never stop to surprise me, what have you done?

Jongin wasn't the center of Nebulae and if he had to talk to defend himself, he would have done it. His face was furious, but he was clearly confused too on why he had been summoned in the CEO office.
