The waiter, carrying a tray full of drinks, turned to Yoo-eun.
“Yes?”
“Is Director Cha Doha…?”
As Yoo-eun stepped forward to speak to the waiter, Son Kyu-won grabbed her again.
“What’s this, have you gone mad?”
He roughly grabbed her arm, his eyes bulging in anger.
“Don’t you speak human?”
“I keep forgetting that you’re capable of human speech.”
Yoo-eun wasn’t intimidated by Son Kyu-won’s threats. She knew his weaknesses well and that he wouldn’t dare hit someone in public.
Ignoring Son Kyu-won with a sneer, Yoo-eun said, “Sorry, I’m a bit busy right now.”
She then handed her business card to the waiter.
“Could you please pass this to Director Cha? At 9 PM…”
“Hey!”
As she placed her card on the waiter’s tray, she was suddenly spun around.
“Getting all cocky because you’re pretty.”
Her wrist hurt even though he didn’t grip it very hard.
Trying to free her hand was futile. An intoxicated Son Kyu-won finished his champagne bottle and then pulled her roughly towards him.
“You’ll learn who I am today.”
The Lotus Hotel party room had several private spaces.
Doha, holed up in one of them, was annotating a document that Lee Han had brought.
Looking at Doha meticulously commenting on the investment proposal for Genesis Holdings, Lee Han couldn’t help but speak up.
“Man, this means a complete overhaul, from the investors to the details. Marcus will faint. Think of the time we’ve put into this.”
At Lee Han’s comment, Doha chuckled and replied coolly.
“Exactly. After all that time, and this is the result. Looks like CEO Marcus Brian needs to step down.”
Doha added the final word to the document and looked up.
“If you’re going to half-ass it, you might as well drop out too.”
At Doha’s sharp remark, Lee Han’s face turned pale, and he waved his hand dismissively.
“Drop out? Why would you say something so disappointing? Who else but you can handle such large sums of money?”
Lee Han, chuckling lightly, collected the tablet and pen Doha had set down and continued.
“I’ll talk to Marcus. If he’s planning to be complacent, he should leave Genesis Holdings. When did Genesis Holdings ever take the easy path? There are plenty of figurehead presidents apart from him.”
Then he picked up a distant glass and placed it in front of Doha.
“Have a drink now. It’s called a wild party, but for Cha Doha, it’s just another working time.”
Finally, Doha let out a small laugh and lifted the glass, checking the time on his left wrist.
“8:20 PM. Do I still have to wait a bit longer?”
After muttering to himself, Doha took a sip.
Just then, a waiter entered the room. The waiter bowed and lined up bottles of alcohol on the table.
“Why bring in so much?”
Asked Lee Han, filling his glass with vodka. The waiter glanced at Doha and quickly replied.
“Miss Haeri asked to bring some here. She said she’d be coming over soon.”
Lee Han frowned at the waiter’s response.
“Where is Haeri now?”
“In the next room…”
“With Dongju?”
“Yes.”
The waiter nodded again after a quick glance at Doha. Only a few knew that Kim Haeri, publicly known as Doha’s lover, was actually indulging in a secret affair with another man: Lee Han, a few Lotus Hotel staff, and the president of Haeri’s agency.
“Kim Haeri is hopeless, always going after the young ones. She should consider age. Dongju is just too young.”
Muttering, Lee Han placed a check on the waiter’s tray.
“Make sure it doesn’t get out.”
The waiter nodded. Keeping Kim Haeri’s escapades secret was important because the rumor of her being Doha’s woman provided him significant cover.
Especially for Doha, who secretly managed businesses away from Hanju Group’s eyes, Haeri was an excellent excuse.
These wild parties, too, served as confidential business meetings for Doha.
Thus, silencing the employees always fell to Lee Han, who, while officially the second son of LI Group and director of LI Construction, was actually the financial director of Genesis Holdings and Doha’s chief secretary. Doha’s interests were his, and his utmost concern was Doha’s safety.
With the check in hand, the gleeful waiter received a gesture from Lee Han to leave.
“Go on out.”
After the waiter bowed deeply at 90 degrees and took a few steps towards the door, he suddenly turned around, exclaiming, “Ah.”
“Director, just now…”
Fumbling in his uniform pocket, the waiter presented a business card to Doha.

really disliked him
