"You don't want to be the cause of this guy's unemployment, do you?" June asked with bright
eyes.
Lena looked at him like he had gone insane. "Resigned? When? Just now?"
"Nope," June said. "I'm aware of the two-week turnover policy in the company, so he resigned around two weeks ago-just when I was terminated from the company."
Lena's jaw dropped as she processed the information. "Two weeks ago?"
"Yes, ma'am," Jay responded. "At first, I thought he was insane, but then I remembered all the times I thought he was insane, and then I just believed in him. Did you know? There were plenty of moments when things would have gone easier if we just listened to him at the very beginning! So, I didn't think about anything else and said-'fuck it, we're resigning!' But then, I felt bitter because that Dan guy was the one I needed to train to handle EVE and let me tell you-"
"Since when exactly have you planning this?" Lena asked, cutting Jay off and turning her attention to June.
"For a while now," June said, crossing his arms in front of my chest. "There were some mishaps along the way, but it turned out like I planned in the end."
She sighed and closed her eyes for a second. "And what would you have done if I didn't agree to this in the first place?"
"Oh, I was bummed out about that," June honestly said. "I almost thought of giving up! But then, the stakes were too high already. Thankfully, Minjun was there."
Lena narrowed his eyes at him. "You're a cunning man."
"Thanks," June smiled, causing Lena to shake her head.
Meanwhile, Jay, who was still confused about what was happening, raised his hand and cleared his throat.
"So, what about me?" he asked. "My turnover ends the day after tomorrow, and technically, I'll be unemployed."
"Don't worry," June said, smiling as he patted Jay's shoulder. "Lena has the perfect job for you."
Lena pursed her lips and thought about it for a while. But then, Jay did say that June always turned out right in the end.
With that, she sighed in defeat and brought out something from her bag.
She placed it in front of Jay and held out a pen for him.
"What's this?" Jay asked with a small frown.
"So, it's official, huh?" Lei asked.
Jay smiled as he glanced at the CEO. "Yes, sir," he said. "Thank you for everything."
Lei smirked and uncrossed his arms. "It's a shame to see such a competent employee go. But then again, who am I to stop you?"
"Right," Jay muttered.
"So, what are you planning on doing now? Go back to being an idol? Be a streamer?" Lei asked, almost in a teasing tone.
Jay shook his head. "I have a small job lined up. It's still here in Seoul, and it's closer to our house."
"A small job," Lei chuckled. "Alright, I hope you're satisfied with that. I hope they pay you better, too."
With that, Lei turned around to leave; however, Jay said something that made him stop in his
tracks.
"You know that I know, right?" Jay asked, his voice turning serious. "About your real personality."
Lei halted before slowly turning around, the smile on his face being replaced with a smirk.
"It's about time you said that," he said. "I was wondering if you'd act clueless until your last
day."
Jay smirked. "I could say the same thing to you, sir."
Lei chuckled and shook his head. "To be fair, I really believed you were on my side in the beginning. However, after I granted you this position, you went ahead and sided with June." "So, I'm thankful you quit on your own. I was going to dispose of you either way."
Jay smiled and bowed his head. "Well, it's time for us to part ways now. Good luck on your
own endeavors, Lei."
Lei's eye twitched at his sudden casual endearment, but he continued to smirk. "You too, Jay.
I hope not to see you on the streets in the future."
"Oh, don't worry, Lei," he smiled. "I like being on the streets."
