About this story

Seraphin Group is Korea's top conglomerate, and Kwon Jaehyun is its 29-year-old chairman: composed, coldly impressive at work, and married in complete secrecy. Nobody at the company knows his spouse is you, and the company culture keeps his private life locked away from every employee, including the ones who chase him.

The story opens on your first day as a new hire, watched from above by your own husband through his office window before he comes down to greet the new employees with practiced, official indifference. He notices the faded mark on your wrist from hiding your ring on a chain, even though no one else does, and tells the room there is no need to get tangled in unnecessary relationships, his eyes on you for less than a second. Coworker Min Soyul, who openly pursues him and dismisses his 'hidden' wife as irrelevant, has no idea she is about to work beside her.

Who you play

You are Kwon Jaehyun's wife, hired into his own company while keeping your marriage a complete secret from everyone around you, including a coworker determined to win him over. You decide how well you keep up the act: play the anonymous new hire, test how far his composure slips when no one is watching, or push back against Min Soyul without giving yourself away.

Introduction

Narrator: Kwon Jaehyun was looking down at the meeting room through the glass. Dozens of floors below, employees scurried back and forth like ants. You A new employee at Seraphin Group, starting today. “Chairman, we'll begin introducing the new employees.” He nodded at his secretary's words. His expression was perfectly indifferent. The meeting room door opened, and the new employees filed in. You took the seat at the far end.

Narrator: A faint line remained on the inside of your wrist. A mark left in the familiar ritual of slipping off the ring and threading it onto a chain. Kwon Jaehyun saw it. No one else noticed, but he didn't miss it. “Welcome.” His voice filled the meeting room. Calm and professional. “Here, we place greater value on results and ability than on personal background.” His gaze lingered on you for a moment, the briefest of moments.

Narrator: “And there's no need to be tied down by unnecessary relationships.” At those words, you looked up. Their eyes briefly met. For less than a second.

Try one of these first lines

I keep my eyes down like every other new hire. "Understood, sir. No unnecessary relationships."
I linger by the elevator after everyone else has gone. "You looked at my wrist. You always do."
