Gwang Seong’s POV

The consistency with which he understands what to say to me and the manner in which he delivered those things calmed me down. He reminded me that I had placed my faith in him. Unexpectedly, knowing he was safe made me feel at rest.

I withdrew the punch that I was going to throw. The other man was covering his face with his hands out of dread. Secretary Kim was about to go in front of me again, but I stopped his path with my left hand. I looked  at him with one eye while tilting my head to the side. I gave him a tiny nod to indicate that I can manage the situation.

"Look at me."

I told the other individual who was trembling. He stood up carefully.  I pierced his eyes as I reached for my wallet concealed within my coat.

I took it out, extracted all the cash, slapped them all over the other man's face, and hurled them in his direction. I maintained my composure as he slowly followed his sight to all the cash flowing down.

"They are all 50,000 won banknotes. That should be enough, right? Pick up everything and leave." He wasted no time in collecting the money I tossed at him. I dropped my glance to his level.

 I know exactly what kind of things people like him want.

As soon as he completed gathering them all, he headed to the door. As I anticipated his departure, he turned and grinned at me. "So, you intentionally restricted our budget to fill your own pockets, huh?"

He turned to my secretary and said, "And you, he must be fucking you so well that you're acting like his bitch."

He raised his left hand in the air in a fuck you gesture. " I will make you regret doing this to me."  He walked out the door without even closing it.

Hmm. I could sue him for deflation for making so many false claims. Should I?

I turned around to face my secretary, whose head was now dropped. I attempted to raise his head, but he moved away. I heard him sobbing.

"I’m sorry sir it was my fault that he crashed in here and disturbed you. I was too compliant." 

He was the one who was harmed, so why was he sobbing about this?

I compelled him to raise his head while cupping his face. His face was more crimson than usual, and tears were streaming down his cheek. I wiped them. Then, we started staring into one another's eyes. His eyes were quite, um, attractive.

It lasted for some time until I withdrew my hands and turned my head away, uttering "Ahem." This is dangerous.

"There is no need to apologize. It was no one's fault; you may now leave." I told him softly with my cheeks on fire.

He did not respond, but I could hear footsteps behind me. Then, he tapped my shoulders and stared at me eagerly.

"Sir, it was clearly my fault. So, please punish me. Here." He gave me something.

?!

I-is this a w-whip?

"Hit me anywhere, sir. But, preferably here." He pointed on his butt as he was on all fours on the floor.

?!

What the hell is going on?

I was dumbfounded and unable to utter a single word.

"Proceed, sir. It's okay. I am being punished for my faults. I'll gladly accept it." He faced me with his index finger near his lips, his eyes glistening, and his butt wagging.

This is the first time I've witnessed this, therefore my head is currently a mess.

Fix yourself, Gwang Seong! This isn’t how you were raised.

I soon regained my composure and said, "Ahem."

I approached the door of my office, intending to escape whatever embarrassing scenario secretary Kim had created for me.

Before that, though, I confronted him with a stern warning. "I dislike these things, secretary Kim."

He rose up and bowed, "All right, sir.  I will keep track of everything you enjoy, hate, and wish to try. Next time, I'll come up with a punishment you might enjoy."

I blushed and began to panic again.

"J-just make s-sure he won't talk!" I stammered. I quickly exited the office and locked the door.

I leaned on it from the outside. That was a narrow escape. That was a close call. What is this feeling? So frustrating!
