Jenna notice Jaehyun immediately slipping the ring off his fingers, putting it into his pocket. Jaehyun caught her watching and gave her a small smile before getting up from the couch.

The crew began packing up, getting ready to go home after a long day.

"Johnny and Jenna, I'm so sorry about the sudden question about your parents, I didn't know that the writers had put that in." Taeil said running to them. Doyoung apologized as well.

"It's okay, it was a valid question." Johnny replied with a smile. Jenna nodded in agreement. They suddenly noticed Jungwoo's voice, louder than they had ever heard before.

"Park Inhye, I know you are a busy person but I have your schedule and I know for a fact that you have plenty of travel time, yet I've received many complaints of you being late for almost every booking this month!" Jungwoo exclaimed. Jenna exchanged looks with Johnny, knowing the scene was not going to be pretty.

"Jungwoo, not here!" Inhye hissed back but Jungwoo shook his head, holding his ground.

"I've scolded you many times but you never seem to listen. Maybe now that other people are watching, you'll smarten up. You may be a famous model but at the end of the day, you are under the company." Jungwoo continued. Inhye glared at him before pushing past him, shoving his shoulder as he left.

Jungwoo let out a hugh sigh as he made his way towards the group, running his fingers through his hair.

"That's rough." Johnny said to the younger male. Jungwoo nodded.

"I don't understand what I'm doing wrong. I just wanted to be a good manager for my father but this woman drives me nuts." Jungwoo said, pulling at his roots. He froze as he met Jaehyun's eyes.

"Don't worry, I'm not that fond of her either." Jaehyun said, showing Jungwoo his now ringless fingers.

""Don't worry Jungwoo, you manage the dreamies well." Doyoung said, reassuring him.

"Speaking of the dreamies, I need to remind the 00' line of their photoshoot tomorrow." Jungwoo said, whipping his phone out. The rest of the group exchanged smiles as they began heading out.

"I'll see you later then?" Taeil asked them as they nodded in response. Taeil and Doyoung left the building, following the rest of the film crew.

"That leaves three." Johnny said, staring at Jaehyun and Jenna.

"Do you want to come over for dinner?" Jenna offered Jaehyun.

"Only if Johnny's staying far away from the kitchen." Jaehyun answered, earning a smack from Johnny.

"Because of that, you can go on dishes duty after." Johnny said jokingly. The three of them headed to the elevator, down to the parking lot where their cars were waiting.

...

"Okay boys, so we need to convince Mr. Park that he can trust us in order to gain all the information needed." Jaehyun said to the group of boys in front of him. He was briefing NCT Dream on their mission for the night, their first meeting with Mr. Park.

"Make sure that none of the work is related to NCT whatsoever. This will keep your identities safe when the time comes for us to reveal his acts, understand?" Jaehyun asked.

"Yes sir." The boys responded in unison. Jaehyun gave them a small smile.

"We are now officially open for business."

...

Jaehyun sat in Jaemin's car, which was driven by Johnny, as Jaemin entered the building. Jisung and Chenle sat in the backseats of the car. Renjun and Jeno were on a motorcycles around the corner while Haechan and Mark were sitting in a small café, across from the building.

Jaemin reached his hand up to his ear, adjusting his earpiece before heading in. As the doors closed, the boy was out of sight.

Doyoung had informed them that the room they were meeting in had no security cameras, ensuring that there was no solid evidence from the building but they should still be careful just in case Mr. Park had planted any.

The silence was deafening as Jaehyun wondered if he made a mistake sending the boy inside alone. He was soon reassured as he heard Jaemin's voice through the radio.

"Hello Mr. Park. I am Na Jaemin from Kim's Modelling Agency. I am here to speak about the opportunity you had for us." Jaehyun could tell that Jaemin was nervous, choosing his words carefully.

"You are quite young, aren't you? I was expecting them to send someone older." Mr. Park responded.

"What game is he trying to play?" Johnny asked from beside Jaehyun. Jaehyun grabbed the radio to direct Jaemin but the boy has responded.

"Sir, I may look young but I assure you, I am extremely experienced." Jaemin said. Jaehyun leaned back in his seat, thankful for Jaemin's quick thinking.

"Very well, let's get down to business then." Mr. Park said. They heard rustling and the opening of a briefcase. Jaehyun assumed that Jaemin had placed the package inside his briefcase without opening it.

"Is this everything you wanted to give me?" Jaemin asked.

"Yes that's it." Mr. Park answered. Jaehyun listened, hearing footsteps and a door opening.

"I hope to work with you again in the future, Jaemin." Mr. Park said.

"I have eyes again." Jaehyun heard Doyoung say over the radio, signalling that Jaemin had left the meeting room. A few seconds later, Jaemin walked out of the building, briefcase in his hands. He hopped into his car, settling in the backseat.

"Good job." Jaehyun said to the young male as he breathed heavily in the back.

"Thanks hyung." Jaemin responded as Johnny began speeding away.
