In his youth, Soocheol’s idol was Changjeong. Perhaps others felt the same.
Like a rational businessman, he wouldn’t be swayed by others, coldly discarding anyone without abilities. He lacked humanity, but his skills were unmatched.
However, the idol turned into a rival, and a rival soon became someone to be wary of.
Changjeong, still young compared to himself, saw through Soocheol’s malice and sneered.
“You were never meticulous from your youth. You acted without thinking about the consequences, driven by greed and avarice.”
“Chairman, your words are excessive. I learned from you since my youth.”
“Amusing. Compared to my youth, you couldn’t even keep up.”
Changjeong’s voice carried a sense of discomfort, as if asking, How dare you compare yourself?
Covering his mouth with his palm, Changjeong coughed several times. Then, without hiding the blood on his lips, he wiped it away and chuckled, coughing again.
Changjeong openly displayed that he had faced death. “Am I too much? I merely stated the truth. What you’ve done wasn’t excessive? Don’t be so angry. You’re just receiving what you deserve now.”
Soocheol ground his teeth. Anyway, once he played with Changjeong, the feeble old man would fall apart. Maybe it was better to just knock him down. After all, covering it up with money would solve the problem.
Would it be an issue to bring forward the end of life, which was only a few days away?
Anyway, it seemed that Minhyuk and Shihun didn’t know about Changjeong’s health condition.
If they knew, he wouldn’t be preparing to face death alone in the hospital.
“Now, come down from that high horse and face the consequences.”
“Why should I face consequences? I took care of Yeonsil because there was no one else.”
“Who would believe that? You kidnapped Yeonsil. You’re the one holding onto that child instead of letting her go.”
“No! I’m just doing what I should be doing, taking care of her because no one else will.”
“Not out of guilt?”
“……”
Guilt? Was he talking about guilt? Soocheol, who had never thought about such a word, pursed his lips. It wasn’t funny.
Guilt for deliberately causing the deeds? Such a thing couldn’t exist.
“Chairman, I’m protecting Yeonsil! It’s something that no one else can do!”
Soocheol shamelessly shouted about ‘protecting’ Yeonsil. He boldly declared that if it wasn’t him, Yeonsil would have become a dead person.
Changjeong laughed mockingly at Soocheol’s justification of confinement as protection.
“Pitiful. Did you become like this, blinded by jealousy for not being loved?”
Soocheol’s pupils dilated, and for a moment, they flickered rapidly. The secret that no one knew slipped out too easily from Changjeong’s lips, leaving Soocheol stunned.
“…What are you talking about?”
There’s no way. Surely there were no witnesses, and the driver who caused the accident handled it cleanly.
Soocheol bit back his words with certainty that Changjeong knew more than he thought.
His heart raced as if it would explode. Soocheol’s breathing became rough, and goosebumps formed on his spine. Clenching his fist, he regulated his breath, repeating inhales and exhales to hide the fact that he was trembling.
However, Changjeong already noticed Soocheol’s awkward behavior, detecting the irregularity in his breathing.
“Shall I tell you why Yusoong can’t become the number one company in South Korea?”
“…….”
“It’s because you’re lacking. A company can’t be perfect if the owner isn’t perfect.”
“Hehe, Chairman Kang. What in the world…”
“The secret I thought would go with me to the grave.”
Under Changjeong’s sharp gaze, Soocheol stopped breathing. Soocheol forced a laugh, realizing that his acting wasn’t working on Changjeong.
Changjeong indeed knew the secret Soocheol wanted to keep hidden. If that was the case, Changjeong could expose the secret at any time through the media.
“How did you know? It’s something no one should know. Chairman Kang, how did you find out about that fact?”
“Foolish. You thought you’d keep it a secret forever.”
Changjeong looked pitifully at Soocheol, who dared to cheekily question how he found out. As people age, some become wiser, while Soocheol seemed to age disgracefully.
Soocheol wouldn’t even look down on himself even if he had set aside the day of his death. Changjeong also anticipated that Soocheol would come to find him.
“Why did our family get involved? I asked twice. You could have rejected it sufficiently.”
“I got involved with your family because of Dahyun.”
Soocheol rushed to confirm the obvious, and it was a problem.
“To bring that child to our HG Group.”
A skilled businessman should be able to discern what is not visible, but Soocheol was only concerned with immediate gains in front of him. Therefore, he had many shortcomings and couldn’t properly tie up the loose ends of what he had done.
“It wouldn’t have mattered if it weren’t for Sae-ah. Your Yusoong would have been just one of many companies in my eyes.”
When the male lead is punished by carrying the female lead’s child and having periods like a woman
“I’ve given birth to two children for you, yet you still think about him.
Was I nothing but his substitute to you from beginning to end?”
