章 16: Chapter 16

Arum was about to race to the editor immediately, when manager Kyong, who overheard her conversation, asked with a worried look, "Did they say Hojoon couldn't cooperate?"

Oops! She had to pretend to be downcast on purpose, as there were some in the office watching her.

"What shall I do?" she said.

Terrific news to her, of course.

But she couldn't make a merry laugh before her senior, manager Kyong.

"Can I try? I hear the wife of my brother's alumna…"

"Her friend?"

Very close. If Kyong tried to contact Hojoon by using her network, Hojoon would not refuse.

Arum's face turned pale.

"Well, I mean not the wife, but her friend received consultation from Hojoon…"

Fortunately she's a stranger.

"I hear Hojoon's schedule is fully booked already. We have to wait at least six months."

"If that's the case, I'm afraid we have to put it off until this fall when we are doing a feature on trousseau."
