Even as the chairman’s grandson, Kim Jae-pil was not someone Tae-jun could easily meet. On the day Tae-jun returned to Korea, Jae-pil left for a business trip to Europe. Even after delegating most of the work to professional managers, Jae-pil continued to expand the group’s business. With his veteran presence sparking opportunities on each trip, he couldn’t afford to rest.
‘It’s hard to see my grandson’s face like this.’
‘You’ve been busy, Grandfather.’
‘How’s the work going?’
‘I just started.’
‘I’m sure you’ll do well.’
Ha-ha-ha. A faint wheezing sound mixed with grandfather’s laughter. Tae-jun felt that his grandfather had changed a lot from long ago.
Jae-pil seemed worried about his grandson, with a touch of concern in his gentle gaze.
‘But be careful not to get caught by anyone.’
‘Yes, I will.’
‘I won’t call you separately for a while. First, meet a lot of people. As you did in the PT, put effort into scouting international talents. You can do it, right?’
‘Yes.’
‘And call me whenever there’s something crucial.’
After a conversation filled with advice, encouragement, and comforting words, Jae-pil left for his next schedule. Tae-jun also exited the office and headed downstairs.
‘Oh, my nephew.’
Amidst the crowded lobby with several executives passing by, Tae-jun’s fifth cousin and the president of K Electronics Mobile Business, Kim Sang-deok, called out to him first.
Tae-jun politely greeted him.
‘Hello, President.’
‘Let’s just call each other comfortably among ourselves.’
Ha-ha-ha. Sang-deok’s hearty laughter attracted attention from those around, but neither Sang-deok nor Tae-jun paid them any mind, maintaining a relaxed demeanor.
‘You’re growing up well, resembling your father more and more. Did he pass away when he was forty?’
After his father’s death, the man who inherited his father’s business without any particular emotions towards him, but Tae-jun would react differently if he spoke lightly about his father. Tae-jun’s smile vanished instantly.
Sensing the subtle change, Sang-deok’s tone became a bit more respectful.
‘Now that you’ve joined the group, let’s do well. I’ve talked to the CEO of Oga to take good care of you. He will pay much attention.’
‘You don’t need to do that. I appreciate the thought, though.’
‘How can I not care about our precious nephew?’
‘…….’
‘Theory and practice are very different. I have many Ivy League graduates under me, but they’re not quite effective. But our nephew will do well. Don’t tarnish Grandfather’s name. Let’s meet again.’
‘Goodbye.’
After Sang-deok left with his ambiguous words of encouragement or mockery, Tae-jun’s aunt Kim Seok-hwa filled his space.
‘That guy never grows up.’
Standing next to Tae-jun, Seok-hwa casually referred to her cousin, who was several years older. It seemed she heard some of what Sang-deok said. Well, his voice was loud enough to boil a cauldron.
Tae-jun tightened his lips, amused by Seok-hwa’s description.”
“You don’t need to pay attention to what Kim Sang-deok says. Honestly, he only got where he is by luck. It was Seok-woo, your uncle, who laid the foundation for the mobile business.”
“…….”
“If Kim Sang-deok crosses the line, just tell me. I’ll handle it.”
“How would you do that?”
“By pulling off his wig in public.”
Pfft. Relieved to see her nephew smiling, Seok-hwa’s expression relaxed. She inquired about Director Song Moon-kyung, Tae-jun’s secretary.
“Do you get along well with Director Song Moon-kyung?”
“Yes.”
“Good. That’s a relief.”
“Thank you for your concern.”
“You know she’s smart and good at her job. She’ll be a strong support for you.”
“Yes.”
“It’s late. Do you want to have dinner together? Are you free?”
“I have an appointment. I’ll visit you another time.”
Tae-jun gracefully declined his aunt’s invitation, maintaining a slight smile.
[Star Icon]8:50 PM.
Tae-jun walked through a somewhat dark hallway to enter the Future Services Team office.
He actually wanted to ignore it, but he couldn’t help thinking about Director Song Moon-kyung. She became his secretary due to his aunt’s orders and had started to take an interest in Han So-eun. If Director Song casually mentioned Han So-eun’s name during a call with his aunt, she might become interested. Tae-jun wanted to avoid such troublesome commotion.
Despite the sound of the door opening, Han So-eun did not stir. Tae-jun saw the woman fast asleep on the desk, looking utterly relaxed, and was exasperated.
Such a way to earn a special allowance.
Tae-jun thought about waking her up and telling her to go home but instead sat in front of her.
Planning to change jobs and studying English, huh? The TOEIC workbook under her face looked pitiful. She had fallen asleep after studying only a few pages. Tae-jun leaned his chin on his hand, staring at her for a while. The smooth light flowing down her white neck tempted him to release his deep breath in front of her.
The long eyelashes visible between her closed eyes were less irritating than Han So-eun when she was awake and talking.
Soon, the vibration of a phone rang. The phone’s vibration did not wake So-eun. The phone lit up, displaying a message. Tae-jun inevitably glanced at it.
[Dash] Are you going to keep ignoring me?The message from someone saved as ‘Oppa♥’ was easily guessable. Tae-jun picked up her phone.
The phone’s light revealed the password pattern. Tae-jun drew an ‘L’ to unlock the phone.
So careless.
This time, he was annoyed at her lax security.
Tae-jun pressed the delete button on the message. He felt no guilt whatsoever.
