All eyes gathered on Jaeho’s microphone. A moment of silence passed. At the end of the profound silence, Jaeho let out an intentional smirk.
“As for casting actors, that’s something the planning agency should handle.”
“……!”
There was a slight reprimand, urging to ask the appropriate questions.
“Where is the actor in this room?”
Simply neat.
It was a humiliation.
“Let’s move on to the next agenda.”
Director Choi, who was conducting the meeting, quickly shifted the focus.
“Ah, next is about the advertising business section……. ”
Heontae, wearing a satisfied expression, couldn’t take his eyes off Jaeho. It was a moment where, without uttering a loud word, he displayed a charisma strong enough to make the other party submit.
The directors, who felt a similar sentiment, looked at Jaeho with a different perspective. They didn’t realize that, hidden in the background, he possessed a charisma as powerful as Heontae’s, who always stayed in the shadows and laughed.
Hyesoo, with an unknown sense of defeat lingering, tried to hide her expression, biting her lips. In the end, it became a scene reminding everyone of the fact that the successor of TaeMyung was a tiger hiding its teeth.
“Finally, Samhu Holdings has proposed a substantial investment in TaeMyung. I would like to discuss this with the directors.”
“Investment from Samhu?”
Heontae reacted.
“Yes, they expressed their intention to invest in our newly started coffee franchise business. The expected investment amount is approximately 10 billion……. ”
“The conditions.”
“That.”
Director Choi hesitated slightly.
“There are no special conditions.”
“Really, none?”
Jinhyuk also showed interest.
It was not only to disperse the gaze focused on Hyesoo but also because an investment without conditions naturally aroused curiosity.
“Yes.”
Even Director Choi answering felt bewildered.
“If there are no conditions, of course, we should accept! Where else can we find such an opportunity?”
Jinhyuk responded confidently. Some directors nodded in agreement.
“With what money did they invest?”
“For now, it seems to be proceeding with the cash they have on hand.”
“We do need cash circulation for new businesses. It’s a good opportunity.”
It was time for each to express approval. Jaeho, who had been smiling faintly, touched the microphone again.
“Why. Have you found out why there are no conditions?”
“No. Not yet.”
“Has Samhu recently had a significantly profitable business?”
“As far as I know, no. Sir.”
Choi replied.
“Any noticeable increase in quarterly performance.”
“Also, there’s none.”
Suspicious.
Jaeho’s eyes flashed sharply.
It was a well-known fact that Samhu Corporation was the birthplace of O Chaewon. The situation coincidentally fell into place quite intriguingly.
Jaeho discovered that the person who delivered the envelope to Dajeong in Taean was O Chaewon and planned to retaliate soon. Although he had given her no reason, this devilish woman reached out her dark hand even to Dajeong.
Investment from Samhu without conditions.
O Chaewon and Samhu. Jaeho and TaeMyung.
Jaeho, who had been contemplating for a while, made a decision and spoke up. Even if there were no issues with O Chaewon, it was clear that the investment was unsettling. Jaeho didn’t think O Chaewon could have figured out his identity, but there was always a possibility.
“I oppose. Saying there are no conditions ultimately implies that they will create debt for us.”
“But…!”
“Objectively, it’s not a good time for Samhu to invest over 10 billion. There must be strings attached. We don’t know if this favor will later hinder TaeMyung.”
Some directors nodded, but there were others who couldn’t agree. Jinhyuk also expressed his disagreement with a stern expression.
Jaeho added another word.
“I suggest you reconsider Samhu Corporation’s CEO Oh Seoktae’s character.”
A cunning snake. Or a poisonous toad.
He was famous for not doing anything that would cause harm. A person who only managed to arrange a few articles for social contribution projects commonly used for image management in companies.
Such a person couldn’t possibly make an unconditional investment.
Heontae smiled gently and made the final statement.
“A good approach. I agree with Director Lee Jaeho’s opinion. If you’re a manager, you should look at the forest rather than the trees.”
It wasn’t intentional, but it was the day when Jaeho, as the successor, left his mark. After the meeting, the looks toward Jaeho were slightly different.
**
“You embarrassed me in public.”
Jung Hyesoo said coldly.
As soon as the board meeting ended, Jinhyuk and his wife expressed their anger in their own ways. Hyesoo clenched her teeth so hard that it seemed like she might bite them off, while Jinhyuk glared straight ahead. Sensing the tense atmosphere, the chauffeur, who knew something was up, carefully started the car.
“How dare he turn me, a small mom, into a thoughtless fool. Jaeho. And during the board meeting. Declaring a direct confrontation.”
“Arrogant brat.”
My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)
Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.
Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.
Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.
“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”
Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.
A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.
“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”
Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.
Gu Sui: “……”
He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?
Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.
Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.
Hmm… she looked a little familiar.
It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.
Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.
“Finally, I found you.”
