Meanwhile, back in his office, Ji-Won was dealing with the consequences of his own childish behavior.
As he placed the files on the desk, Ji-Won let out a deep breath, silently berating himself for acting stupid earlier.
But what could he have done? As soon as he felt Su-Jin's warm fingers against his hand, his body moved by itself, instinctively trying to put as much distance between them as possible.
Regardless of what he previously told himself or how he tried to lie to himself, Ji-Won was well aware that he needed to find the answer to those maddening questions. The longer he stayed in this confused state, the harder it would be to deal with the situation later.
With that mind, Ji-Won decided to take some time after the project was presented to carefully mull things over.
Until that time, though, he pushed everything else to the back of his mind and focused on the work at hand.
