Shi Hoon arrived at his office. Jong Min on the other hand gave signals to the other secretaries that Shi Hoon was in a bad mood. The secretaries get his signals. Once Shi Hoon entered his office, he sat on the sofa and closed his eyes. Jong Min did not dare to say anything and silently stood at the door.
"Jong Min. Get me the information about that girl we just met in the elevator," ordered Shi Hoon with a calm voice.
Jong Min saw that his boss seemed to calm down now. "Are you going to fire her?" asked Jong Min.
"Depend on what you found; I don't want to see her resume. I want you to investigate everything about her," said Shi Hoon.
"Huh? What do you mean by that?" asked Jong Min again.
"I think she is weird," said Shi Hoon in a serious voice.
"I don't think so. I think she is just the overly energetic girl," said Jong Min.
"Just do it and stop asking questions anymore," said Shi Hoon in a cold voice.
"Okay boss. I will investigate everything about that girl," said Jong Min. Jong Min then walked out of Shi Hoon's office. "Is this the cliché thing that happen in drama where the male lead found the female lead weird and fall in love with her?" said Jong Min. "Pfft~ no way. Now that I see this in that way, I can understand why she laugh."

"Good morning and hello. I am Kim Mi Rae. You can call me Mi Rae. Nice to meet you," Mi Rae introduced herself cheerfully to her coworker. After that, the other new recruits also introduced themselves. One of her sunbae showed her table and she went there. When people were not looking at her, she sighed in relief. "Phew~ No one realizes anything. Everything going well now and my three months working here will be resourceful," said Mi Rae while smiling.
Afternoon. Mi Rae did not join her other coworkers for lunch since she packed her own lunch. She went to a small garden in the building and ate her lunch there. Before she can start eating, a voice came from behind her.
"This is your first day, why aren't you eating with your office mates?" asked the voice. Mi Rae looked behind her and Shi Hoon was standing there coldly looking at her. Mi Rae was taken aback by Shi Hoon appearance but immediately gained her composure and answered Shi Hoon.
"I pack my own lunch <3," said Mi Rae cheerfully while holding her lunch. Shi Hoon stared at Mi Rae and not saying anything. Mi Rae saw Shi Hoon staring at her, she held her lunch towards Shi Hoon and asked, "Do you want to have some?"
After Mi Rae offered her lunch to Shi Hoon, Shi Hoon ignored her and left her. "He can at least say no," said Mi Rae while smiling.
A week passed since Mi Rae started working at XG company. Shi Hoon's office.
"Boss, I finish investigating that girl you ask me last week," said Jong Min. He gives a thick envelope to Shi Hoon. Shi Hoon looked at Jong Min weirdly while holding the thick envelope. "This is everything that I can find about her and now I understand why you think she is weird," said Jong Min.
Shi Hoon pulled out all the things inside the envelope. Documents, pictures, CD disc were inside the envelope. While looking at the pictures and documents, Shi Hoon's face turned serious.
"Her name is Kim Mi Rae. 26 years old. She is an orphan. Three years ago, her parents died in an accident. No siblings. She graduates from a not really popular college. All this is normal until I dig more. Her family and her are from average family. She is also living in a small apartment. When her parents died, they did not leave her with anything. No inheritance but she weirdly owns quite an expensive car. I check the car owner and it is under her name and she bought it cash," explained Jong Min.
"I got shocked when I found that and then I try to check if she works in a big company with high salary before and found more weird things," said Jong Min. Shi Hoon still looking at the documents and listened to Jong Min.
"She never once works at one place more than three months. The longest will be 3 months. Even if she was offered a permanent employment, she declines the offered and quit her job. She took a lot of different jobs not related to her degree. She will usually be unemployed for months before she gets a new job," said Jong Min.
"I thought that was all and dig deeper and found out that the building she is living right now belongs to her. No matter how much I try to find out where she got all the money, nothing can be found. She also did a lot of donations to orphanage and participate in a lot of charity program," said Jong Min.
"This CD, what is this?" asked Shi Hoon.
"Oh, that is the video from one of the charities she participates. Ah I forgot to mentions. Apparently, the cheerful energetic girl the she shows us in the elevator is f-" before Jong Min can finished his sentence, Shi Hoon talked.
"Fake. I know that since the second time I talked to her," said Shi Hoon.
"Apparently, her real personality is totally different than that. I asked people who knows her and all of them said that she is usually shy, sweet and soft person," said Jong Min and he continued, "Boss, is she perhaps a… spy from another company?"
Shi Hoon did not say anything. "Possibly but let's not jump to any conclusion for now. From what you found, there is nothing that can tied her to our competitor," said Shi Hoon.
"But then, where did she get all this money to buy an expensive car and a building?" asked Jong Min.
"Her friends. I don't see any information about her friends," asked Shi Hoon.
"About that, many people know about her but they are not close with each other," said Jong Min.
"High school friends, college?" asked Shi Hoon.
"After she graduates, she never met any of them and she did not know any rich person. She never dates any man too," said Jong Min. "Boss, should we report her to the police?" asked Jong Min.
"She did not do anything wrong and even if she is really a spy, we don't have any proof," said Shi Hoon. After he finished looking at all the documents, he puts everything back inside the envelope and shove it inside the lock drawer.
"Let's go meet her and see if we can get anything from her," Shi Hoon walked out of his office with Jong Min and went to the fashion department.
When they arrived at the fashion department, no one was there.
"I think they are at the studio," said Jong Min.
Shi Hoon went to Mi Rae's desk and looked around her desk. "Boss, she left her handbag here," said Jong Min pointing at the normal looking cheap handbag.
Shi Hoon without reserves checked Mi Rae's handbag. Her wallet, car key, house key was inside the bag… and a notebook. Shi Hoon took out the notebook. It was not a diary but a notebook. He opened the book and was surprised with what he saw inside the notebook.
"Kang… Woo?" said Shi Hoon.

"That was my first time watching a photoshoot, sunbae," said Mi Rae happily to her sunbae.
"You will get excited at the beginning but when you work longer, you will know how hard it is especially if the models are those that think they are the best in the world," said Mi Rae's sunbae.
"I thought that only happen in drama. It happens in real life too? That's interesting," said Mi Rae while smiling.
"There you go again with your drama reference. You really are a drama maniac," said Mi Rae's sunbae smiling at Mi Rae.
Mi Rae arrived at her desk. "Sunbae, how about having dinner together today? My treat," asked Mi Rae.
"Sorry, Mi Rae. I promised my boyfriend to go on a date with him today," said Mi Rae's sunbae.
"Oo, okay," said Mi Rae disappointedly.
"See you tomorrow," said Mi Rae's sunbae. She left the office leaving Mi Rae alone there.
Mi Rae took her handbags and went to the bus stop. While waiting at the bus stop, she opened her Instagram and scroll her Instagram. "Oh, they went on a date again. Like," Mi Rae clicked the like button on the picture of that handsome doctor and his girlfriend Yoon Se Ra. While she was looking at her Instagram, she realizes something. She immediately checks her handbag.
"My notebook!" Mi Rae quickly ran back to her desk at the office and searched her notebook but it was nowhere in her desk. She checked her coworker's desk but still can't find her notebook. "Where did it go?!!" said Mi Rae panicked.
