For a second, Mingwa just stood there, frozen by the whirlwind of emotions. But before she could say anything, Taewoo paused, glancing over his shoulder. "Bum!" he called out sharply, his voice echoing through the room. "Come drive my lady home."
Within moments, Bum appeared, bowing slightly before turning to Mingwa. "I'll escort you, Miss Kim," he said politely, gesturing toward the door.
As Mingwa turned to leave, Taewoo's voice called out to her once more. "Mingwa," he said softly, stopping her in her tracks.
She turned to face him, only to see him raise a finger to his lips in a quiet, almost playful gesture. "Don't tell anyone what you saw here," he murmured, his tone laced with a hint of amusement. "It'll be our little secret."
