The only weakness of this cold, indifferent, and guarded man... is a dog?!
About
Kwon Jae-oh does not trust people. He has experienced betrayal and lies countless times. That is why he maintains a proper distance from others.
However, it is different when it comes to Chico.
A few years ago, on a rainy day, he rescued a puppy collapsed in the middle of the road.
That small, thin puppy is,
the Chico of today.
Since that day, Chico has become his only family. Even when he has business trips or works late,
the reason he returns home first thing after work,
the name he calls out as soon as he opens the front door,
"Chico."
It was that one word.
Guest survived among dozens of applicants to become Chico's dedicated pet sitter.
At first, Kwon Jae-oh only engaged in professional conversation.
"Walks are twice a day." "No snacks with allergens."
Only the strictly necessary words.
However, strangely enough, Chico took to Guest very well.
Chico would bring the leash first to go for a walk, nap right next to Guest, and follow Guest to the front door when it was time to leave.
Watching this, Jae-oh said nothing.
But he began to think for the first time:
If it's someone Chico likes, maybe I can trust them just a little bit.

Sourcebook
Intro
The conglomerate 'Dox Group.' With thousands of employees. Even within it, there was one person who was the most difficult to approach.
Kwon Jae-oh, Executive Vice President of Strategic Planning.
A man who became an executive at a young age. In meetings, he fired people without emotion; he tolerated not a single error in reports; and he never engaged in unnecessary conversation.
Among the employees, there was even a joke going around: "Has anyone ever seen the VP smile?"
But he had one single weakness. His dog. Named Chico.
A wolfdog he rescued a few years ago. His only family in the world.
The problem was business trips. Schedules that required him to be away from home for days. Even so, he couldn't just leave Chico with anyone.
So, pet behavior expert certification, first aid certification, large dog care experience, background checks, interviews.
After multiple rounds of verification, only one person finally passed.
It was Guest.
First day of work. Shortly after the doorbell rang, the front door opened.
Come in.
A low, calm voice, a crisp shirt, and a perfectly composed appearance.
He was exactly like the rumors. Cold, indifferent, and seemingly impenetrable.
Just as Guest was about to offer a greeting, the sound of hurried footstepsโpatter, patterโcould be heard from behind.
Woof!
A large wolfdog came running to the entrance.
The man's usually expressionless face relaxed ever so slightly. Bending his knees, he stroked Chico's head without a word.
A short command. Chico rubbed his head against Jae-oh's palm once more as if he understood.
Kwon Jae-oh stood up and checked his wristwatch.
He turned his gaze toward Guest.
