“You did well.”
After the woman finished her audition and bowed out, the judges seated at the panel began to discuss.
“Everyone is so picky, I thought she was okay.”
“She fits the image of the role, but her acting skills are lacking. But for a lead role, we really need to prioritize acting skills.”
“Still, it’s hard to find someone with that kind of image, so it’s a dilemma.”
Unable to make a decision, the director turned to Yugeon for his opinion.
Yugeon, with his smooth face, tilted his head from side to side, prompting a chuckle from the director.
“Looks like CEO Choi is tired.”
“I haven’t slept much in hours.”
“Everyone knows EM Entertainment. You’ve grown the business to this extent, you should take it easy now.”
As the conversation shifted, the agency president seated next to the director chimed in.
“I feel quite guilty for having slept nine hours yesterday. Haha.”
Yugeon, who faintly smiled, placed his hand on his nape.
While massaging his stiff neck, his phone on the table blinked.
[Butler Gong]Yugeon looked down at it with an indifferent gaze and then stood up.
“Let’s take a break. I’ll step out for a call.”
As he pressed the call button and stepped outside, Yugeon leaned against the semi-circular railing.
“Go ahead.”
The madam has requested everyone to gather by 7 o’clock tonight.
Sigh. Yugeon let out a tired breath.
He had planned to catch some sleep after finishing the auditions today, but his grandmother, holding considerable wealth, had been calling her children frequently, changing conditions ahead of the inheritance distribution.
She said if even one person is missing, she will donate all the wealth to society.
Yugeon looked down at the open first floor with a tired expression, his annoyance evident.
“I really wish she would.”
He was too busy focusing on his own business to care whether the grandmother donated her wealth or gave it all to his petty uncle and aunt, who were desperate for it.
Just as he thought it would be nice to get an extra hour of sleep, Butler Gong, who had emphasized the need to attend, added.
Also, she said you must bring the result of yesterday’s arranged marriage meeting.
Ah, the arranged marriage.
Yes, yesterday, he had reluctantly gone to a blind date arranged by his grandmother, Kim Bok-Rye. Busy as he was, he made time, but the woman never showed up. When he called her, she said she was busy and would contact him later, but he hadn’t heard from her since.
“You need the other party to have a blind date and bring results.”
Oh, you didn’t meet your blind date yesterday?
“I got stood up. Please relay that to Mrs. Kim.”
Oh my, stood up? How could that happen?
Kim Bok-Rye’s voice came over the phone as if she was nearby, saying, “Give that here.”
Yugeon, you rascal, are you trying to skip blind dates again by making up lies?
He knew his grandmother well enough not to fall for her tricks.
“I’m not lying.”
That lady is a doctor, so she must have been busy.
I’m busy too. Before he could finish his thought, Kim Bok-Rye’s shaky voice continued.
Doctors can suddenly get busy. You call her and arrange another meeting. Understand?
Sensing Yugeon’s reluctance, Mrs. Kim’s voice suddenly intensified.
Look at you, not answering again. I will definitely see you married and having children before I go to the afterlife!
“May you live a long life.”
“Stop it, you brat! Just arrange another meeting with that doctor lady. Otherwise, I’ll give the Seongsu-dong house to Hote as his honeymoon house.”
Yugeon’s eyes snapped open, his expression bored.
“No, you can’t do that with that house.”
Despite Yugeon’s cold tone, Mrs. Kim spoke even louder.
“Why not? It’s my property, and I’m saying I’ll give it to my grandchild! If you don’t like it, then meet that doctor lady and get married!”
That house in Seongsu-dong holds memories of trees planted with his father.
A place where his family, once scattered, finally gathered, marked with doodles of his eight-year-younger sister.
A place that held his mother’s humming tunes.
Though he lost his father, mother, and sister in a plane accident, the house in Seongsu-dong, imprinted with the laughter and wind of his family, couldn’t just be handed over to Hote, who would surely misuse it.
“Grandma, no. Respectable Mrs. Kim Bok-Rye.”
Yugeon, with his eyes shut and then opened, spoke in a coaxing tone.
“Why keep calling me, you brat! It’s my dying wish, so hurry up and find a wife and get married, I’m hanging up! Busy now.”
“Bu-”
The call abruptly ended, and Yugeon felt a sense of déjà vu.
Why are there so many heartless women these days, hanging up on him and being busy?
“Sigh…”
Leaning against the railing, Yugeon stared blankly into space before picking up his phone again.
Dialing the phone number of the doctor lady who hung up on him twice and failed to contact him back.
Dialing as if he’s a very understanding blind date.
Dialing with a gentle tone, ready to forgive everything.
