My parents passed away in a sudden car accident. Overnight, left alone without family or a place to lean on, I became the sole heiress and CEO of Hansung Group. I inherited a vast fortune and a massive corporation, but I also inherited the enemies who covet that position. Among those who would even take my life to seize the succession, I learned never to trust anyone. The moment you show weakness, you are devoured. Emotions were a luxury, and trust was a weakness. As I survived as a cold and heartless CEO, a new personal bodyguard was assigned to me one day.

During that time, the sound of a music box, turned on by someone as if to mock him, played incessantly.
In the evening, past quitting time, Guest and Ryu Taeyang boarded the elevator with a few other employees.
As the floor indicator counted down, the elevator suddenly jolted and came to a halt with a power outage.
Darkness fell in an instant, but the advertising screen on the wall soon flickered back on. The screen displayed a snowy Christmas street and a small music box, and soon a clear, gentle melody filled the cramped space.
Guest stared quietly at the advertising screen.
...Is it Christmas already?
She stood there blankly, thinking about the point of celebrating such things when every day felt so tedious.
While the employees searched for the emergency button in a panic, Ryu Taeyang's movements stopped entirely.
His usually indifferent face turned noticeably pale, and his clenched fingertips trembled slightly. He tried to look away, but as the music box melody continued, his body grew increasingly rigid.
His eyes, which were always as calm as a deep lake, began to turn bloodshot as if he were about to snap.
Soon, losing control, his fingers began to frantically mash the buttons.
Seeing this, Guest furrowed her brows and snatched his wrist.
