Chapter 25 - You should keep a mirror (2/2)
”Then, why are you asking me?”
”She asked you to do it.”
The office manager shoves back the bundle. ”Whether I do it or you do it, prints will be the same.”
The office manager runs away. Lawyer Pyo is already gone. Do Sejin sighs again. He copies the paper one by one. It is surprisingly mind-numbing.
”It's done.” He gives her the copies. ”Do you want me to do anything else?
”Take one copy for yourself and put the other one on the shelves.” She doesn't look up at him.
Try reading it. If you don't understand anything, ask Jung Kwang-soo.”
”I already read them.”
”Is that so?” She stops reading the newspaper. ”Did you read it when you were copying them?”
”I read them when you were working on them at your home,” Do Sejin tells her.
She stares at him for the longest ten minutes of his life.
”I was curious about the 100th-day case.” He realizes that he has dug his own grave. ”I didn't reveal anything to anyone.”
”See that pile there?” She points at the huge pile of papers. ”You can begin with that. I am sure that you didn't read them. You can leave the office at 5.”
He didn't know that he has been holding his breath. Finally, an acknowledgment that he has been in her life once. He gives himself a mental slap. He isn't here for that.

”Tell me if you don't understand anything.” Jung Kwang-soo smiles widely. His smile that can move any woman's heart. Eun Min Ah dazes out for a second. Do Sejin is handsome and bad, but Jung Kwang-soo has an older charm. Neatly combed hair. Broad shoulder. High cheekbones. A natural tan on his skin. Dimples on his cheeks. Amused eyes that twinkle when he smiles. A natural allure around him.
She is curious to see his abs under his shirt.
She shakes her head. How is she already affected by someone else? Do Sejin has given her a chance. She can't throw it away. She recalls the previous night with Do Sejin. A small smile appears on her lips. It's better if Do Sejin moves in with her. Her home is near the law firm. She will ask him during the break.
Jung Kwang-soo snaps his fingers in front of her face. This experienced man can easily make a guess what is going on this young girl's mind. ”Make sure to call them after you are done reading their profiles.”
”Ah!” She looks at the list of phone numbers. ”I will do it right away.”
”Wait.” He smoothes down the disheveled bangs on her forehead. ”You should keep a mirror.”
”Y-y-yes.”
When she stammers, her face becomes red. Her reaction is cute. Jung Kwang-soo realizes that he shouldn't be doing this. If this girl falls for him, he won't be able to resist taking her to bed. Do Sejin should work hard to keep this girl, else he will snatch her away and turn her into his plaything.
