“Chairman’s impeachment?”
“Yes.”
“It’s my company, Hyunyang Construction, so who has the right to impeach me? They’re talking nonsense.”
Daehoon, who had finished the prosecutor’s investigation, got into the waiting car. Avoiding the gathering reporters, as soon as they stepped onto the early morning road, Director Kim brought news about the shareholder meeting scheduled for this afternoon.
Not the majority, but Daehoon, who held stocks equivalent to that, couldn’t help but scoff. Even if some people gathered and talked nonsense about impeaching the chairman among themselves, how many executives were there who couldn’t stab him in the back with weaknesses?
“What do they think will happen if I step down? They’ll all just scatter. Hyunyang was built by me, and I am Hyunyang. What nonsense is this about impeachment?”
Even if there were those who turned around, it would be difficult to surpass the shares held by me and my family, especially considering the missing 5.8 percent of stocks that couldn’t be found.
Once upon a time, Daehoon also tried to find the whereabouts of the evaporated stocks, but he couldn’t find them in the end. Since I couldn’t find what I couldn’t find, Daehoon thought there was no need to worry about that part.
Although he was worried about the stocks he handed over to his wife and daughter, it would be difficult for his wife, who is undergoing a prosecutor’s investigation, to dispose of the stocks as she wishes.
Jo Yuri doesn’t know anything about stocks or that side, but considering her greedy personality, it was her judgment that she wouldn’t easily give up what she has.
“Did you move to Yangpyeong?”
The prosecution, which received a search and seizure warrant, would have ransacked the house yesterday afternoon. Daehoon believed that Director Kim had safely moved what was in his safe to the Yangpyeong villa.
“The villa doesn’t seem safe either, so I moved it to another place.”
“Where?”
“Near my hometown.”
“Oh, you mentioned Asan?”
Daehoon recalled that it was a place where he and Director Kim had lived alone before he entered the childcare center.
“It’s Osong. A small town in Chungbuk Cheongju. Shall I bring them now?”
“No, I’m a bit tired now. Those prosecution guys who went back empty-handed will be keeping an eye on me, too. Let’s leave them there for a while.”
Even if the prosecution guys say they’ll fly high, they wouldn’t dare to search for my father’s hometown house.
Satisfied with this thought, Daehoon smiled as if content. Deeply sinking into the chair, he stiffly leaned his neck against the rigid and hardened neck.
“If we get through this, let’s go to Switzerland.”
“Yes.”
“You must have suffered from this incident, too, so you should rest there for a while.”
“…Thank you.”
It meant that he would take out the embezzled secret funds and give him a share. Giving a reward to a faithful dog guarding the house was important. Daehoon intended to take good care of Director Kim.
“How is that child doing? Is she still sticking close to Gang Taeseo?”
“That’s what I know. Oh, Yoo Yuri left for Canada yesterday morning.”
“Ah… Was the child’s grandpa’s villa there?”
“Yes.”
“Hmm…”
Yuri, who was sure to be whining, was not in Daehoon’s favor. Throughout the prosecutor’s investigation, Daehoon thought about what to do with Yun Jae-in, that tricky child.
She was a girl who, even when threatened, said she could break even. He forgot that she was a child who lived alone with her mother. Since she seemed to have no positive feelings towards me, it was challenging to use her in a good way. In that case…
“Useless…”
Daehoon, scratching his ear while sticking his tongue out, frowned at the violin sound that scratched his eardrums.
“Turn off the music. I want to go quietly.”
“Yes, understood.”
The fatigue accumulated from the intense investigation over the past few days was significant. Daehoon, feeling even irritated by the classical music he always heard, closed his eyes in the quiet.
“Is Taeseo going, too?”
“If so, will you be the only one enjoying the good sight? Although you’re the largest shareholder, I also have the right to attend.”
Perhaps the fatigue was relieved after just one night, Taeseo, who had become neat, appeared in a suit. Amber, who was talking with Director Jang while twisting her red hair, widened her eyes.
{You weren’t going to step forward? That’s why you put me in front to invest in Hyunyang Construction.}
{It’s meaningless. They already know the situation involving me and Jaein from that side. Moreover, if rumors about me and Jaein spread unpleasantly, we need to make it clear.}
{What are you going to do?}
At Amber’s question, Taeseo smiled and toyed with the cufflinks buttons on his sleeves.
“I don’t know how to wear a tie.”
“I’ll tie it like a ribbon for you.”
“Oh, really. It feels silly.”
“A silly man because of me?”
“I guess it’s okay to become silly because of me.”
“A bit?”
Actually, a lot.”

Several months after transmigrating into a book, Yu Wu found herself facing the demon lord Li You, who could no longer conceal his dragon horns. With one hand on her aching waist and the other gripping a sharp sword, she stared at him.
The demon lord’s eyes were red with fury:
“This is all your doing! Today, I won’t rest until I kill you!”
Yu Wu rubbed her temples. Putting aside the taboo against bloodshed during pregnancy, wasn’t it this very man who willingly walked into her trap that day?!
