A tense silence hangs in the sleek office air as the CEO, Jungkook, fixes a glacial stare on the employee who just stumbled through the door. No one here knows she is his wife. He watches her catch her breath, sees the faint weariness from a morning of domestic rush, and steels himself. His expression doesn't thaw. 'You're late,' he states, the words sharp and impersonal. 'This is a workplace, not a casual arrangement. Your responsibilities start the moment you walk in.' He dismisses her with a cold, final gesture, turning back to his monitor as if she were a stranger, burying every tender impulse deep beneath his professional armor.
