A Billionaire's Lost Love のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 11 - チャプター 20

Mr. Kim closed the door behind me, which caused me to hold my breath. I didn't know what I was supposed to do. So, I remained standing in the middle of the room. There was nothing to hear around us but silence.And of course, the sound of how hard my heart pounded onto my chest.I did my very best to keep myself standing up. By the manner of how hard my heart beated, it was enough to make me dizzy. And it didn't help that I returned to panic mode. Breathing became a struggle once again. I looked all over the room in an attempt to distract myself from… well, myself.Without looking, Mr. Nam finally broke the agonizing silence as he said, "Please take a seat, Miss Ryuk." He briefly gestured to the chair across him before he flipped onto the next page.I bowed briefl

"Oh, wow, I didn't know that something still scares you," she said, sarcastically.I sighed as I returned to my laptop. "What do you want now, Minju?""I'm surprised at how brave you are to even look at Mr. Nam directly. A low life like you don't even have the right to be in the same room as him," she replied."Minju, I didn't force myself onto Mr. Nam. I didn't ask to be called into his office," I answered, still not bothering to look at her. I continued, "And the only reason why he talked to me is because I'm a new employee. Most managers and bosses do that to make their newbies comfortable.""Your courage to talk back to me is getting bigger as the day passes," she chuckled. She leaned closer to me and whispered, "Perhaps, you have forgotten your place here. Don't for

Mama screamed before I could even put the speaker close to my ear. I closed my eyes as I kept my phone at a distance from my face. She continued, "Don't you know what time it is?! It's already nine-fifteen pm and you have no news on what time you're going to be home. My client is already furious that I didn't arrive on time. Do you know how much money your overtime is costing me?!"Slowly, I put my phone onto my ear and replied, "Mama, I'm still at work. But I'm almost finished. I'm just waiting for the Mail Department to pick up all the contracts I finished today.""Instead of waiting, why don't you just leave it there and come home already?!" she shouted again and I moved my phone away once more. "Your sisters are already gone and I'm left with the kids! And I still need to take care of other people's children. Don't you know how exhausting this is?!"

After the door closed behind me, Minju started, "Mr. Nam, your secretary is worthless. Just worthless! She cost me a whole day's work when I specifically asked her to finish it yesterday!"I groaned silently as I slowly pushed myself back up. I turned to look at Minju and watched as she continued her rant.She walked closer to Mr. Nam's table. "This kind of work ethic isn't suitable for a respectable company such as yours. In my opinion, it's time that you remove her and find someone worthy of such a position."My brows furrowed as I shared glances with Mr. Kim, who stood silently behind Mr. Nam. On the other hand, Mr. Nam stared at Minju without saying a word. He gave her a blank stare, which made me uncomfortable because I had no idea what Mr. Nam would say.And after

Mr. Kim spoke from the outside. “I received a notification from one of our clients. It’s of high importance.”Without another word, Mr. Nam stood and walked towards the window. He slightly opened the blinds and remained turned away from the door. “Come in, Hyeongu.”As soon as the door opened, I removed my stare from Mr. Nam and looked down to my feet. I kept my head down as Mr. Kim entered.“Mr. Nam,” Mr. Kim continued as he closed the door. He walked towards him and said, “Our client from Nekobe Hotel just called in. They said they wanted to discuss something important to you.”“Did he mention what he wanted to talk about?” Mr. Nam asked. I secretly glanced over to them and Mr. Nam kept his back turned f
