Two days after the surprise Singapore visit, they were back in Seoul. The flight home had been quiet and sweet — Kook holding Tae’s hand the entire time, kissing her knuckles every few minutes like he still couldn’t believe she was real. Everything was going perfectly. The board members were openly impressed by their “married life,” constantly praising how stable and loving the young couple seemed. Tae was working harder than ever, pulling late nights to lock down the final votes for the CEO position. Kook supported her completely — picking up dinner, handling small things around the penthouse, and always waiting up no matter how late she came home.

Tonight was one of those nights.
