When Yujin arrives at the manor, this time, she has a key. Apparently the man she'd been admonished by last time had called and reprimanded the company, and as always, shit rolls downhill. She'd gotten the key finally, sure, but she'd also gotten an earful from her superiors.

Not that Yujin cares really. They only think that she's working for them, to her, this job is nothing more than the means to an end.

As she strolls through the door, she remembers to keep her ears peeled. She won't forget why she's here, not even for a moment. Honestly, she isn't even sure why they have a maid in the first place though. It's been three days since the last time she was here, but the place is just as clean as it was when she left. There isn't even really any dishes in the sink.

There is, however, some laundry. So she quickly sets to work on that.

She listens quietly for any voices, but hears none, and begins to think that maybe today is just a bust. The house is so eerily quiet that she wonders if everyone is still asleep. Sari had explicitly warned her against acting without speaking to her first, however. She is not here to harm Minji, is not to attempt to abduct Minji on her own. She is only here to listen.

But what is she supposed to do if she fails to hear anything for too long? Sari is not well known for patience, and to be honest, Yujin herself would rather have this done quickly as well.

These men are incredibly heavy sleepers, at least, that's what Yujin thinks. She's already been to nearly every room to put away clothes, and not a single male has stirred in the slightest. Of course, she couldn't know that they were well aware of her presence, couldn't know that they have supernatural hearing and senses.

As she turns the doorknob to Minji's bedroom, and steps inside, she is struck by a fit of jealousy so fierce that her gut clenches angrily. It's so beautifully, and so obviously lovingly decorated. Why is it that someone like Minji gets to have something like this? People like Minji and Sari are the worst. And as she puts away Minji's now clean and folded clothes, she catches sight of the oblivious blonde sprawled out on the bed between two of the males of this household. The blanket has ridden down a bit in their sleep, and it becomes clear to Yujin that all three of them are naked.

What a greedy whore.

Is she sleeping with all of the men in this house? Are they all aware of it? And if so, what makes her so special that she is able to bag not only one handsome, wealthy lover, but seven of them?

Her mission hadn't been personal, and in the beginning she'd even felt a small twinge of pity for the girl. But now? Now she hopes that Minji really does get knocked down a peg or two. Of course, she hopes the same happens to Sari. Minji might be annoyingly lucky, but at least she isn't a total bitch like the woman who holds her family's fate in her hands. In the end, she retreats from that room, struggling to contain her own anger and jealousy, without ever realizing that the two males within Minji's bed have begun to stir.
