1. Frank in Kara’s Room

Kara’s crying suddenly subsided. After drying her face with the blanket, she sat up. “What’s wrong, Frank?”

The man could see traces of tears on her red cheeks. He also caught the vibration in her voice. However, as if he didn’t know anything, he stepped in and closed the door.

“Earlier… you asked about the reason I love you,” Frank walked with his head bowed. When he arrived at the bedside, he looked up and smiled. “Do you know why?”

Kara blinked stiffly. A few seconds ago, she was still thinking about Finnic. Now, her brain was dominated by the boss. The transition was too fast for her to anticipate. “Why?”

He took the secretary’s hand. “My life has turned chaotic. It doesn’t

“Are you insulting me?” Kara’s eyes narrowed..

“No,” Frank shook his head, half laughing. “I actually appreciate you. With that chaos and mess, you made me realize. I’m tired of shaping my destiny as my father’s perfect replacement. You are the strength for me to change.”

Kara’s eyes moved here and there, looking for an explanation. “You fell in love with me because I was the source of chaos in your life?”

“That’s hard to believe?”
