“So, you’re saying to abandon the heir position for filial piety?”
“That’s the best course.”
Inwoo nodded, still behind his mask.
The best course…
Regardless of Chadoha’s decision, it would be a setback for Inwoo.
But why endure this under the guise of ‘the best course’? There must be a reason behind this self-harming strategy.
Chadoha’s lips curled slightly.
“Are you sure?”
If so, Chadoha was willing to play along.
It might be interesting to see what was happening behind the mask.
“If I decide to go through with something, I see it to the end.”
He might even get a step closer to what he’s seeking.
“Defending the heir position won’t be easy, Chairman Cha Inwoo.”
Chadoha’s words caused a crack in Inwoo’s mask.
The corners of his mouth, which had been softly curled, trembled slightly.
Yes, this is what makes it interesting.
“Okay, then go.”
“Alright…”
“Tell the chairman I’ll go for the arranged meeting. But on my terms.”
After sending Inwoo away, Chadoha pressed the intercom button.
“Manager Kim Jeong-ju.”
Yes, Director.
“When will you have the information I asked for? The recent changes in shareholding of Chairman and Chairman Cha Inwoo in the subsidiary companies?”
It’ll take a bit more time as you asked to include even the proxy and friendly shares.
Indeed, it’s not something you find out overnight.
“While you’re at it, could you check one more thing?”
Yes, what is it?
“Please investigate Chairman Cha, President Cha, and Vice Chairman Cha Un as well. Find out who they are meeting with these days.”
At Chadoha’s request, Manager Kim Jeong-ju fell silent.
After a noticeable pause, a cautious question came from the other end of the line.
…Are you getting into something dangerous?
“A bit, maybe?”
Understood. I’ll proceed with caution.
“And…”
Pausing for a moment, Chadoha gazed at his fingertips and continued.
“Persona Seo Ye-eun. You have her phone number, right?”
Yes, …I do.
“Send it to my cell phone.”
It was already Friday.
A relatively quiet and peaceful week was passing by, almost like life before meeting Chadoha.
Like well-oiled gears meshing quietly and smoothly.
At least, that was how it appeared on the surface.
But inside, Ye-eun was not at peace.
Upon receiving Chadoha’s schedule from Chahyun last Monday, Ye-eun initially felt relieved.
He was on a business trip to Taiwan from Tuesday to Friday.
The fact that Chadoha was out of Korea was more than welcome.
At least for this week, she wouldn’t have to deal with those absurd ax swings that shredded her mentality.
She wouldn’t have to feel humiliation or self-loathing.
But for a Persona image trainer, it was a disaster.
A disaster among disasters.
[You’re working on persuading Chadoha, right?]Yesterday afternoon, Chahyun had called her to the gallery and harshly pressed her.
Chahyun kindly reminded her of the painful future for both her and Persona if she failed to persuade Chadoha.
[If I were you, I would have followed him to Taiwan. Your mother’s condition is quite serious, isn’t it?]Chahyun’s face, while sipping coffee, briefly showed concern.
It felt like a cat caring for a mouse, causing her hair to stand on end.
Especially since she had just heard some bad news from the doctor.
The internal organs were deteriorating too fast, and without immediate surgery, they couldn’t guarantee even two months.
She had braced herself, but facing reality was overwhelming.
Chahyun’s words pierced her deeply.
[Oh, and President Yoon Jisoo said the promissory note… is due soon, right? I don’t think you can stop it this time.]This too was a shock.
A promissory note due at Persona?
[Quickly become Chadoha’s image trainer. That’s your only way out.]She had tried refusing and making excuses before, but none worked, so Ye-eun chose to remain silent.
Observing her, Chahyun continued in a slightly softened tone.
[I’m in a hurry too. Chadoha is set to have an arranged meeting.]An arranged meeting.
So, Chadoha was finally going to meet with the ST Group’s young lady.
Her heart sank heavily.
Cold Male Lead Became My Clingy Husband (Female-Dominant)
Feng Bai Su transmigrated into a matriarchal novel, becoming the sister of the female protagonist and the Seventh Princess of the Feng Ling Kingdom.
After working herself to death in her previous life, finally reincarnating as a princess, she only wanted to be a lazy fish who could eat, sleep, and play.
Until she met the male protagonist from the book, Wei Jing Mo, and he took a liking to her!
Wei Jing Mo is the top young man in Feng Ling City, talented in both appearance and ability, from a prestigious family, with a cold and otherworldly appearance, a figure like the bright moon in the hearts of noble ladies. It was thought that only the most powerful and talented noble lady in Feng Ling City would be worthy of such a brilliant young man. Who knew that this young gentleman would secretly admire the infamous Seventh Princess?
Short scene 1:
Feng Bai Su looked at the young man crying like a pear blossom in the rain before her, and couldn’t help but doubt her life.
Wasn’t the male lead described as a cold and otherworldly figure in the book?
Then who was this poor little thing crying with swollen red eyes and tear-stained face?
Short scene 2:
Wei Jing Mo stared intently at Feng Bai Su who was about to go out, wanting to say, “Be careful on the road.”
Before he could speak, Feng Bai Su suddenly bent down and bit his cheek.
Her peach blossom eyes were full of disdain: “Tsk! You’re so clingy!”
Wei Jing Mo: “…”
A talented fox spirit female lead with a flirtatious appearance but actually abstinent VS A cold-looking but actually naive and clingy little jealous male lead
