This was what Ha Joon had reported to Seok-hoon before he came to Seo Ah’s house.
It wasn’t clear yet if Young-ju was harmful to Seo Ah, but they couldn’t leave someone who was meeting with a cruel broker near Seo Ah.
Even if the broker’s intention wasn’t related to Seo Ah, they couldn’t rule out the possibility of using Seo Ah, who was closest to Young-ju, to intimidate her.
Ha Joon planned to meet Young-ju directly after he figured out the relationship and purpose between her and the broker.
If Young-ju was in danger, he was willing to help her, as she was someone Seo Ah trusted and followed.
Until then, they had to keep Young-ju and Seo Ah apart in case of any unexpected situations.
[Star Icon]“I would prefer if you didn’t tell the truth to Seo Ah and Choi Young-ju. I know Choi Young-ju cares a lot about Seo Ah, and she might feel hurt.”

“That’s true…”
“I understand she’s started learning secretarial work. Maybe suggest focusing on that as a reason?”
“That sounds good. I’ve been concerned lately because the time I pick up Seo Ah has been slightly off.”
“I’m looking for a female bodyguard who can care for Seo Ah as much as Choi Young-ju. Until then, my executive assistant will protect her.”
“Heh, I was worried because Kang was a bit blunt, but now I see there’s no need to worry since you care so much about our Seo Ah.”
“I’ve been restraining myself for Seo Ah’s sake, but now there’s no need.”
Jinwon, who had a puzzled expression at Ha Joon’s cryptic words, soon nodded in understanding with a pleased smile.
“I understand there were checks on Yu Young Group since the marriage news. Could you inform me of even the trivial matters that haven’t been made public?”
“It’s all in the past, why worry about such things? Don’t concern yourself, Vice President Kang took care of it too.”
“I think we should identify who the enemy is. There are some suspects, but I need to be sure. There’s no guarantee it won’t happen again.”

“That’s fine. I’ll handle the company matters, you just take care of Seo Ah.”
“Seo Ah, being relatively vulnerable, might be targeted. It’s for her safety.”
Jinwon’s eyes vibrated intensely, and a spasm crossed his lips.
“Right, that could happen. I’ll prepare the information and give it to you.”
Ha Joon was not at ease either. He didn’t want to cause Jinwon anxiety, but it seemed like the only way to get him to divulge the information.
“As I said before, there will be no harm coming to Seo Ah.”
Jinwon’s trembling lips finally stabilized.
“Having Kang around is reassuring. Please take good care of our Seo Ah.”
“Yes. Don’t worry. And if it’s not too much trouble, I would like father-in-law to handle the documentation himself, secretly. The enemy could be very close. Not even the house helpers or Choi Young-ju are exceptions. It’s better to be safe than sorry.”
This was Ha Joon’s main concern. He hoped Jinwon wouldn’t trust Young-ju too much, since the broker might be targeting Yu Young Group.
Even though he hadn’t thought about it extending to Young-ju, who had saved Seo Ah’s life, Jinwon’s pupils shook violently but he soon nodded in agreement.

“Alright. We’ll do that.”
“Please let me know when you’re done organizing. I’ll send someone.”
[Star Icon]Everyone gathered and started eating together in the dining room.
“Come to think of it, this is the first time the four of us are eating together like this. We always ate with the in-laws.”
“That’s true. I’ll make sure to visit more often from now on.”
“Oh, no need to bother when you’re busy. Just come by when you’re free, like today. Even if it’s just our Seo Ah…”
“Hmm.”
Hye-kyung couldn’t continue speaking because Jinwon gave her a sign.
Jinwon, too, would like Seo Ah and Ha Joon to visit often, but he didn’t want them to feel uncomfortable because of it.

“Stop talking during meals. Let them eat in peace.”
“Oh, did I do that? Eat comfortably. Comfortably.”
“It can’t be helped if we’re busy, but we’ll try to visit at least once a month. Seo Ah will come more often if nothing’s up.”
“Really?”
Hye-kyung’s face lit up, but then Jinwon gave her a sign again.
“Don’t worry too much. We can video call if we miss each other. No need to make time specially.”
“We still need to eat even if we’re busy. If you understand that we might just come for a meal and leave.”
Ha Joon’s words, filled with a smile, warmed Jinwon and Hye-kyung’s hearts.
“Oh, I understand! You’re always welcome, even if it’s sudden. Feel free to come alone too.”
“It’s better for us if Ha Joon takes Seo Ah on dates. Right, dear?”

“That’s true! Have lots of dates with Seo Ah, Kang.”

She fears nothing in heaven or earth, except for him getting close to her.

At first he thought she was just using the trick of feigning indifference to attract his attention. Later, he learned that she truly despised him.
This dealt a heavy blow to Jiang Mingyue, and he vowed to make her, like everyone else, fall at his feet in worship!
