After ending the call with Yoon Seol-hee, Jin Young-chul found himself in a dilemma. He couldn’t guess why Baek Sun-joo suddenly wanted to see him.
As always, Jin Young-chul discussed this issue with his wife, In Young.
“What should I do?”
In Young frowned. Though it had been over 30 years, she was his first love, and their relationship was so deep that they even had a son together.
No matter how sturdy In Young was, it wasn’t easy for her to accept her husband meeting that woman.
“I think Baek Sun-joo will suggest you join her party.”
“What? No way… She’s the one who used to insist that our paths were different.”
“Currently, the second opposition party has 13 incumbent members. If Baek Sun-joo’s party sweeps all six constituencies in this by-election, they will secure a total of 19 seats. And if you, as an independent, join them, what happens then?”
“Seriously! Baek Sun-joo is aiming for an intra-party negotiation group!”
A political party with more than 20 members can form an intra-party negotiation group.

The presence or absence of an intra-party negotiation group within a party made a tremendous difference in power. It not only increased government subsidies but also provided opportunities to speak at ad-hoc and regular sessions.
Jin Young-chul looked at his wife In Young, gauging her reaction, and asked.
“What should I do? Should I meet Baek Sun-joo or not?”
“At least meet her. You won’t lose anything by hearing what she has to say.”
“Are you serious?”
Jin Young-chul looked at In Young in surprise. He had expected her to come up with various excuses to prevent the meeting.
However, In Young was, in fact, pushing Jin Young-chul toward Baek Sun-joo.
Feeling a sadness he couldn’t express to his wife, Jin Young-chul thought that even if there was a speck of affection, he couldn’t let things go on like this.
“You’re really amazing. Are you saying it’s all for my sake? So, you’re willing to let me meet Baek Sun-joo without any reservations?”
“If you don’t want to end your last political career in a trivial way.”

“Well, is it for my sake that you’re saying this?”
“Consider all the conditions.”
Jin Young-chul, deeply hurt, raised his voice.
“As long as we’re on the subject, let me ask you. What are your thoughts on you and your father and our son Seon-woo? Are we going to let Seon-woo, our truly talented child, live as an ordinary wage earner for the rest of his life?”
“…That depends on Seon-woo.”
“Ha! Are you really saying that even if Seon-woo were your real son? Are you going to let that talented kid rot as an ordinary wage earner?”
“If Seon-woo were my son, I would have handed down K1 Construction without hesitation, as you said. But Seon-woo is not my son, as you claim.”
Jin Young-chul felt a chill at In Young’s cold words.
For 30 years, it was the first time In Young had uttered the words that Seon-woo was not her son.
Although she had said those words countless times herself, hearing them from In Young’s mouth made Jin Young-chul feel an indescribable sorrow.

“In the end, you reveal your true feelings. I endured it for a long time, 30 years. I’ve endured it for you.”
Despite Jin Young-chul’s sulking, In Young remained unfazed.
Looking at his wife, he abruptly stood up with a displeased expression.
“From now on, don’t interfere in Seon-woo’s affairs. If you recklessly get involved in what I’m doing, I won’t forgive you!”
Jin Young-chul prepared to go out and left the house. In Young muttered to herself as she watched her husband’s retreating figure.
“If thinking of me as your son makes me a real son, I’d rather not.”
“Grandpa, we’re here.”
Green and Seon-woo visited Park Chan-wook’s mansion in Pyeongchang-dong.
They had heard that he had been suffering from a cold for a week.
“Seon-woo, is it okay for you to leave your place unattended when Marseille is not just next door? Is running a business child’s play?”
“I’ve arranged it to run smoothly even without me.”

“Hmph, then why do I pay you a salary? It should run fine on its own!”
Even if he was a bit worn out from the cold, Park Chan-wook was still Park Chan-wook. Seon-woo’s feeble excuse didn’t cut it.
Seon-woo surrendered with a smile, conceding defeat.
“I made a mistake. I’ll try to return as soon as possible, sir.”
“Hmph!”
Even while grumbling, Park Chan-wook seemed pleased to see Seon-woo.
Green, suddenly appearing much older because of Park Chan-wook’s demeanor, began nagging.
“Do have your meals on time. You know you should take medicine with your meals, right? It’s not even winter yet; why catch a cold? Maybe you should take some red ginseng…”
“This rascal has red ginseng piled up at home. Since the old man won’t eat it no matter how much you give him, take some when you go. He insists on giving only red ginseng as gifts, you know.”
Perhaps because he was unwell, Park Chan-wook’s temper flared up more than usual. Seeing him like this, Green couldn’t help but laugh. At times like this, he didn’t seem like a fearsome CEO but rather a normal neighborhood grandpa.
