My career is on the line!” “It’s simple,” he replied, his tone cold. “Play along, or get left behind.” She clenched her fists, knowing she was trapped. “Fine,” she muttered. “But don’t think you can easily take advantage of me.” His smirk widened. “I wouldn’t dream of it..”

Taewoo leaned back, composing himself before he spoke again. This time, his voice was smooth, carrying a hint of amusement, though it was laced with control.

"At the end of that week," Taewoo continued, his voice unyielding, "I'll come to bring you back. And by then, I expect you to be ready."
