When Seonwoo and Director Ahn Yonggi arrived at the company, an emergency meeting convened by CEO Park Chanwook was in full swing.
From the controversy over Director Jin Seonwoo being an illegitimate child to Jin Youngcheol’s scandal with Haedanghwa, K1 Construction’s stock prices had been fluctuating daily.
“There’s a continuous stream of issues, but no one is taking responsibility. This is a matter of the company’s credibility. We need a decisive action from the CEO.”
As Sales General Manager Park Suho opened the discussion, others chimed in, one after the other.
Although they were cautious of Vice President Park Inyoung’s reaction, the gist was to make an example out of Jin Seonwoo, who was at the center of the controversy.
Even though people resented Seonwoo’s rapid rise at a young age, they only watched him warily because he was the only grandson of the founder, Park Chanwook. However, once it was revealed that Seonwoo was Jin Youngcheol’s illegitimate child, they attacked him like hyenas.
Technically, Park Kyungmin and Park Suho, who were nephews of Park Chanwook, thought they were closer to him than Seonwoo, who didn’t share a drop of blood with Park Chanwook.
Despite not showing it, Park Inyoung also believed that she couldn’t have any affection for Seonwoo, a child her husband had with another woman.
“Vice President Park Inyoung, how much must you have been boiling inside? To hide your true feelings for 30 years is truly remarkable.”
Park Kyungmin and Park Suho looked at her as if they completely understood, but Inyoung’s eyes, closely monitoring the meeting room situation, remained cold.
“Sorry for being late.”
Seonwoo entered the meeting room, apologizing confidently and took his seat with ease.
“The person who threw the entire company into chaos seems quite unperturbed, Director Jin Seonwoo?”
Park Kyungmin, Head of Housing Business, who had always been irked by Seonwoo, seized the moment to taunt him.
Seonwoo looked at him with an expressionless face and asked,
“Are you referring to me?”
“Ha! Are you asking because you don’t know?”
“Yes, I’m asking because I don’t understand.”
Seonwoo’s confident demeanor slightly flustered Park Kyungmin.
“Is it my fault for being an illegitimate child? Or did I spread the news about being an illegitimate child in the media?”
“Well, that’s not it, but…”
“Or, are you saying it’s my fault that my father met with a shaman, Mr. Park Kyungmin?”
Park Kyungmin, now at a loss for words, began to argue out of stubbornness.
“Regardless, the entire company has been turned upside down due to Director Jin’s family issues. Isn’t indirect responsibility still a responsibility?”
“I see.”
Seonwoo’s sudden agreement caught Park Kyungmin off guard. He wasn’t someone who would easily concede.
“Then, am I the only one in this room who should bear indirect responsibility?”
Seonwoo, who had been staring directly at Park Kyungmin, slowly shifted his gaze towards Inyoung and Park Chanwook.
According to Park Kyungmin’s logic, the person who should be most questioned was Park Inyoung, who lived in the same house as Jin Youngcheol. She was the one who accepted Seonwoo, the illegitimate child, as her son.
In fact, Seonwoo was convinced that the person who leaked the news about him being an illegitimate child to the media was CEO Park Chanwook. He had already received a warning through Green.
“I’m going to make things a bit difficult for you. But don’t hate me too much for it.”
He couldn’t be sure of Park Chanwook’s intentions in warning Green in advance, but it confirmed one thing.
The current situation was not his fault. That’s why Seonwoo could stand tall.
A strange silence filled the meeting room. No one could refute Seonwoo’s words. At that moment, Park Chanwook spoke.
“Director Jin Seonwoo, let’s hear your thoughts.”
“When Seonwoo and Director Ahn Yonggi arrived at the company, an emergency meeting convened by Chairman Park Chanwook was already underway.
From the controversy about Director Jin Seonwoo being an illegitimate child to Jin Youngcheol’s scandal with the shaman Haedanghwa, K1 Construction’s stock prices had been fluctuating significantly.
‘There’s a series of issues occurring, and no one is taking responsibility. This is a matter of the company’s credibility. We need a decisive action from the Chairman,’ said Park Suho, the General Manager of Sales, opening the discussion. Others echoed the sentiment.
Although they were cautious of Vice Chairman Park Inyoung’s reaction, the main point was to set an example by addressing Jin Seonwoo, who was at the center of the controversy.
Despite being resentful of Seonwoo’s rapid rise at a young age, people had been cautious because he was the only grandson of the founder, Park Chanwook. However, once it was revealed that Seonwoo was Jin Youngcheol’s illegitimate child, they attacked him like hyenas.
Technically, Park Kyungmin and Park Suho, who were relatives of Park Chanwook, felt they had a closer claim than Seonwoo, who didn’t share any blood relation with Park Chanwook.
My Step-brother Is Obsessed With Me (Female-dominant)
A gentle female protagonist vs pitiful in the early stage, and a sick male protagonist in the later stage
Cheng Songer transmigrated into the body of a vicious cannon fodder female supporting character with the same name as her in a female-dominant novel.
In the original story, the cannon fodder female supporting character was inhumane, committing domestic violence, gambling excessively, being lustful, and even wanting to sell her stepbrother to a brothel for money.
As luck would have it, she just happened to transmigrate at this time.
Seeing Cheng Qingzhi biting his lip, enduring the tears in his eyes, looking pitiful, her heart softened.
She stuffed the money back into the Madam’s hand and reached out to him.
“Brother, come home with me.”
