Chapter 102 – Choi Jihun POV
I hate paperwork.
I flip through the documents on my desk like they've personally wronged me. I can't even skim them anymore—not since that one time I did and accidentally greenlit a funding disaster that let a few sneaky bastards embezzle half a department's budget. Nepotism, resource hogging, internal politics—it was a whole scandal. I still wake up annoyed about it.
So now, I read. Every. Damn. Line.
And I work until late into the night, my eyes sore and my back stiff. By the time I push back from the desk, it's well past midnight. I step out into the courtyard and pause beneath the full moon. The estate is quiet at this hour, serene in a way it rarely is during the day. I breathe in the night air, stare up at the stars, and try to remind myself this is all for something.
