### Summary
The narrative escalates as Yi-rim, overwhelmed by a career-ending medical diagnosis and the sudden emergence of his previously scentless pheromones, attempts to flee the hospital to avoid Cheong-ho. This act of avoidance deepens the central conflict of catastrophic miscommunication, frustrating readers who implore the characters to talk. Amidst the drama, the delivery man, Juho, has become a fan-favorite character, widely praised as the "MVP" for single-handedly carrying the couple's relationship by attempting to mediate and provide support. The chapter's action builds to a tense chase, which some readers felt shifted the tone from drama to horror, culminating in Cheong-ho cornering Yi-rim in an elevator. The pivotal moment and the chapter's major cliffhanger occur when Cheong-ho, despite his severe phobia, recognizes Yi-rim's new scent and makes the deliberate choice to step into the confined space with him. This is seen by the audience as a monumental and romantic breakthrough, demonstrating his commitment to overcoming his trauma for their relationship. The chapter ends on this precipice, leaving readers anxiously awaiting Cheong-ho's reaction and the fate of their fragile connection.
