"Jae-04, can I've the info about Neo?" Jaehyun gave her nod, before pointing at his room as he handed her his ID.
Aera swiped his card against the machine that stood adjacent to the room door- giving her access upon recognizing it as Jaehyun's ID.
"Thanks" Aera replied, throwing his card back to him which he caught onto before she walked inside his room only to see Johnny sitting down at the chair, eyes glued onto the screen in front.
"Oh" She mumbled out, walking towards the boy before setting her eyes on what the screen displayed and she mentally facepalmed herself upon seeing what the boy was fully immersed into.
"Game? Seriously?" Aera rolled her eyes and he let out laugh before speaking, "You wanna use it?" Johnny asked and she nodded, "Ok" He mumbled before exiting the game and standing up from the chair.
"If 01 asks, you know where I always will be at?" Aera gave him a nod and he exited the room with that, closing the door behind him leaving the girl alone.
Yes, that's how short their two conversations were..
Clicking on the folder that was named 'Neo' she began reading through the information.
"Damn this Daejung guy own half of the mafia gangs? Must be bloody rich by now" She spoke to herself as she skipped to the first profile.
"Haechan? Somehow.. I'm lucky they don't know him" She sighed out in relief that none of them knew who her soulmate really was.
She read through Renjun's, Jeno's and Jaemin's trying to recollect who they were since she did not anyone else's name other than Donghyuck.
Before she could move onto the next profile, the door flung open making her avert her gaze onto the person.
"Taeyong's calling us for something, come" He informed, leaving the door open while he awaited for the girl, "No names 03" Aera said as she shut the computer down before walking towards him.
"You too? Have you been spending time with Taeyong a lot?" He asked, frowning in disapproval, "Again, no names" She repeated and he scoffed, rolling his eyes before walking ahead of the girl.
"Hey Mark! Hold up" Aera ran towards the boy, catching up with him and he smiled at her, "That's like my girl" He commented, giving her a high-five before the two stepped inside the meeting room.
❖
"So basically CEO Kang was someway related to the gang Citrine?" Aera asked and Taeyong gave a nod in acknowledgment.
"Who owns it? Daejung again?" Taeyong's shrugged in response to Mark's question, "I can't seem to dot down any info on Citrine. I haven't heard of that gang either" Taeyong said, sighing out feeling helpless.
"But I don't get why Mr. Kang was Neo's target though?" Mark said, shoulders falling down in dissatisfaction, "There must be something between Neo and Citrine.. rivals maybe?" Aera said unsure about her own words to which they mused over for a few seconds before Jaehyun spoke, "Just get Daejung and end this shit, it's tiring" He rolled his eyes, leaning back on the chair, closing his eyes shut before slacking off the conversation.
"05, inform Seojun about it, he'll decided the rest" Taeyong stated and Johnny nodded, exiting the meeting room leaving the four inside.
Taeyong furrowed his brows seeing how the two- Mark and Aera, had their eyes on him and upon feeling uncomfortable under their gaze he spoke, "Meeting over..?" Jaehyun instantly sat up straight, "Finally" He mumbled standing up from his chair.
"Also.. good news" Taeyong began earning their attention, "The only good news for us would be catching hold of Daejung" Jaehyun scoffed out before facing the elder boy who spoke, "02 found her soulmate" Jaehyun's eyes widened and he snapped his head at Aera, raising his brow for a confirmation and she gave him a small nod.
"Who the fuck is 02?!" Mark questioned to himself, forgetting the assigned numbers since he never used it and soon it hit him it was Aera and he abruptly stood up, rounding the table and rushing towards the girl.
"What the heck! Why didn't you tell me??" Mark reached onto her hand and the two began reading the name- smiles lingering on their faces.
"Congrats buddy" Jaehyun commented, flashing her a wide smile and she returned one.
Mark pulled the girl into a quick hug, "I'm happy for you my sis" He mumbled through the hug before breaking it and she couldn't help but smile at his words, "Thanks Mark" She replied, contented to know her brother was happy over it.
