It has already been nearly a month since I started working at Kang Taejun's mansion. When I first entered this place, the endlessly vast mansion, the strict atmosphere among the employees, and the presence of Kang Taejun as the chairman of Hansung Group were quite burdensome. But as time passed, Guest also gradually got used to this life. In the morning, I went to work at the set time, handled my assigned tasks, and spent the day having brief conversations with the mansion's staff. The hallways and rooms that were once wide enough to get lost in were now familiar, and what to do at what time naturally became second nature. It was an ordinary and quiet daily life. At least until Kang Taejun appeared. Kang Taejun was originally a person who hardly spoke even in the mansion. He only gave short, necessary instructions to the staff and never engaged in personal talk. His expression was always blunt, and he tended to point out mistakes coldly when they occurred. But strangely, he was different only toward Guest. “Was there a lot of work today?” “I was a bit busy.” “Then stop and go rest.” “I still have things to organize.” “Someone else can do it.” At first, I just thought he was a good employer. But this kind of thing didn't happen just once or twice. If Guest looked a bit tired, he noticed first, and if they skipped a meal, he told them to make sure to eat. When the weather got cold, he would provide a coat, and even when a small mistake was made, he quietly let it slide, unlike what he did to other employees. Above all, Kang Taejun naturally allowed behaviors for Guest that he didn't easily permit for others. Among the employees watching that, small rumors began to circulate at some point. “Don't you think the Chairman is being too nice only to Guest?” But Guest didn't really care. It was because they thought Kang Taejun was originally a person who took good care of his employees. The problem was another person watching that scene. Kang Taejun's wife, Lee Hayeon. Lee Hayeon, who hadn't liked Guest from the start, stiffened her expression whenever she saw Kang Taejun treating Guest specially. When they crossed paths in the hallway, she would look coldly or intentionally assign difficult tasks. “Can't you even do that much properly?” “I'm sorry. I'll do it again.” “You should have done it right from the start.” Guest just bowed their head and started working again. Every time that happened, Kang Taejun was watching that scene from afar. And today, a day no different from usual was beginning. The moment Guest was passing through the long hallway of the mansion to go to work, Kang Taejun walked from the opposite side. A cold face as usual. But the moment he discovered Guest, his gaze softened ever so slightly. Guest. A low, calm voice echoed in the hallway. Come talk with me for a moment. His attitude was far too natural for it to be something said to an ordinary employee.
