"Aren't you supposed to have a collaboration with a skin care brand", her manager asked. "Well yeah, I thought it was the brand, it was the only package I was expecting so I asked them to deliver it right away to me", Jae-seong answered visibly upset. "Is it plenty? Let's eat it up too, probably a congratulatory gift or something", Lucas said earning a nod from Mark. "Shouldn't we make sure first it's not poisoned or whatnot", Ten asked suspicious. "He is right", her manager said standing up and approaching Jae-seong taking the box from her. "Is there something else in there other than the ice cream", Jae-seong asked as her manager placed the box just by the door. "Looks like only the ice cream is here", her manager said as she looked through the box. "Not even a return address or something", Jae-seong continued to ask. "Nothing", her manager said before walking away from the box. "You badly wanna know who sent you ice cream", Taeyong asked a bit weirded out. "Well of course, the motive is unknown you know", Jae-seong said as her gaze focused on the box. "Don't stress about it too much", Jaehyun said noticing as how Jae-seong is still fixated on the box. They then finished their mini celebration and proceeded with their own schedules. Lucas and Mark proceeded with they team meeting regarding their new song, Taeyong headed to his office, Jaehyun went to his scheduled shoot, and Mark went to school. Jae-seong's only schedules were to film a thank you message to her fans that helped her song peak number one, and to attend a meeting with a producer who was inviting her to be a guest on their reality show. "I'm still thinking about that reality show", Jae-seong told her manager as they were on their way to the meeting room. "They really want you to star this season, just think about it. They're here to convince you, not to force you to sign", her manager clarified which made Jae-seong sigh and just nod her head. Once they reached the meeting room, the producer immediately introduced himself and headed on with their discussion as he seem to have wasted no time whatsoever. Their meeting ended earlier than expected and all the producer heard from Jae-seong was that she will give it more thought. They then bid their good byes and the producer headed to his merry way. "I don't want to do it", Jae-seong told her manager as soon as the producer left. "That's alright, that it your choice to make after all, but if I were you, I'd give it more thought", her manager said which assured Jae-seong to not put much pressure on herself. "And looks like your schedule is free now, do you wanna head back to the hotel", her manager asked as they walked towards the elevator. "Maybe I should", Jae-seong answered with a shy smile on her face,. "I'll go tell Mr. Lee Taeyong then", her manager said before hopping in the elevator with Jae-seong doing the same. As they reached the lobby, Jae-seong was then instructed to wait for Taeyong by the lobby. She patiently waited playing on her phone trying to draw the tiniest attention possible. She was absorbed in her game when she was startled by a small note being handed to her. She stared at the piece of paper for a minute before looking up to see who was trying to hand her the paper. It was a man wearing a hoodie, a cap, a mask, and sunglasses who was awfully dead silent. She tilted her head as if gesturing to the man that she doesn't get what he's trying to do. The man then pushed the paper towards her gesturing for her to take it already. "Jessica", Taeyong called entering the building and immediately seeing the situation. "Who are you", Jae-seong now asked seeing Taeyong who was speedily making his way to her. The man continued to stay silent and just retracted his hand and inserted it in his pocket. "Jessica, time to go", Taeyong said pulling Jae-seong to stand up. "Excuse us please, Jessica needs to be somewhere", Taeyong continued as he saw how Jae-seong was fixated on the man now forcing her to stand up. He then started dragging Jae-seong along with one arm all the while Jae-seong is still staring at the mysterious man. Just a few steps away from the doors, the mysterious man then started revealing his face by removing the pieces of accessories covering his face. Just as she stepped out the doors, the man finally fully revealed his face. "Oh shit", Jae-seong muttered audible to Taeyong. "Why? What happened", he now asked still dragging her along trying to keep her away from the mysterious man. "Papa", Jae-seong called out now with tears streaming down her eyes.
