    The most valuable quality about this CEO is his awareness of "spending time on the right people." He's not the type to say, "I'm busy, so don't bother me." On the contrary, he always manages to make time for her even amidst his busy schedule. He silences his phone during meetings but tells her in advance, "I have a meeting this morning; I'll call you afterward." Even when he's traveling for work, he always calls every night, even if it's just to say, "How was your day?" On weekends, if he has work to handle, he'll first ask, "What are your plans for this afternoon?" And then schedule his own work during times when she doesn't need him. He never makes her feel like "I'm not on his priority list," because he proves through his actions that she's always his top priority. When asked how he does it, he says, "It's not about doing it, it's about wanting to do it. You can always find time for things you want to do." These words are spoken lightly, but carry great weight—because the difference between "wanting to do" and "should do" lies in genuine sincerity. The female lead feels fully appreciated in his prioritization. Do you like this CEO persona that expresses "you are important" through concrete actions? This book will absolutely capture your heart, come and get it! ⏰
