There was something that people like Ju Ran and Go Jin Ah, who had only joined the Emerald Club a few years ago, didn’t know well.
This club was a community club created about 15 years ago by three university seniors and juniors, Kim Ji Won from C&C, Kim Go Eun from Onyu Pharmaceuticals, and Gu Ja Yeon from C Bio.
The Emerald Club was originally focused on noblesse oblige (a high level of moral duty required of highranking social figures), but as more people gathered, the original essence gradually blurred.
With this, Lady Kim Go Eun was the first to drop out of the club, and the remaining two also gradually stopped participating.
The Emerald Club, whose essence had changed, was propagated among the rich housewives as a stepping stone that must be passed to join the upper class in a different sense.
Among them, the early members were excited when the two club founders, Kim Ji Won and Kim Go Eun, appeared.
Even if they were not founding members, the name value of Kim Ji Won from C&C and Kim Go Eun from Onyu Pharmaceuticals shone on them.
Upon seeing the two, Ju Ran froze and stopped moving instantly.
Anyone could tell that she was tense.
Kim Ji Won, the person she hated and felt most uncomfortable with in the world, and Kim Go Eun from Onyu Pharmaceuticals, whom she had called her inlaw until recently, came together.

They were the last people she wanted to meet here.
‘Did that woman Kim Go Eun hear everything from my daughter Ji Yeon?’
With that thought, a bitter taste rose in Ju Ran’s mouth.
However, thinking calmly, if Kim Go Eun or Chairman Eun had heard the story from Ji Yeon, Chairman Cha Seung Jo would not have been so silent.
‘She doesn’t know the details yet! She hasn’t heard anything. Eun Ji Yeon, that daughter of hers, probably couldn’t say anything to her parents yet, right? How easy could it be to say, we broke up?’
With this thought, her face brightened again.
She thought she needed to grill Kim Go Eun before meeting Eun Ji Yeon again.
‘If she is her mother, she will listen to her mother a bit since she’s a child who would die miserably.’
Ju Ran stared at Ji Won and Go Eun, lost in her own thoughts.
“Ma’am~ No, President Kim Ji Won. It’s been a while.”
“Oh my, even Lady Kim Go Eun! Do the original members gather like this?”
“Why haven’t you come like this, both of you? Anyone and everyone have been coming in, and the name of the Emerald Club has faded, now it looks a bit like a social club.”
The last words, as if intended for Kang Ju Ran to hear, were spoken by Lady Ga Mi Sook from T Electronics, who always disliked Kang Ju Ran’s crowd.
Because it was publicly known that Ju Ran had donated a large sum of money to the club and took a high position, she was the person who had opposed accepting her as a member until the end.
Ju Ran glared fiercely, but no one cared.
“Ju Ran sister, aren’t you going to say hello to your brotherinlaw?”
Go Jin Ah, who was just glaring at Ju Ran, poked her side and asked.

Upon hearing Go Jin Ah’s words, who was subtly scratching her pride with a bright smile, Ju Ran almost screamed, but held back due to the many watching eyes.
As Kim Ji Won entered the hall and locked eyes with Ju Ran, she turned her eyes away, pretending not to know, and exchanged greetings with the people around her.
“Why would I need to greet someone like you? You’re just a cockroach who sneaked into my husband’s life and laid an egg.”
Ji Won said nothing, but a strange sound rang in Ju Ran’s head, as if her guilt was making her hear things due to the unwarranted selfreproach.
Ji Won and Go Eun received the crowd’s hospitality and took seats in the center of the hall.
Since there was about 30 minutes before the official meeting started, Ju Ran promptly stood up from her seat with her eyes closed.
She disliked being with Kim Ji Won, but she needed to talk to Kim Go Eun as soon as possible.
While Ji Won and Go Eun were engaged in conversations with the people around, Ju Ran subtly moved closer to Go Eun.
Feeling her gaze, Go Eun paused her conversation and looked up at Ju Ran.
“Inlaw, it’s been a while. Have you been well all this time?”
Just in case anyone might hear, Ju Ran lowered her voice to talk to Go Eun.
It was rare, but Ju Ran, who never initiated conversation at gatherings where they occasionally met, had done so.

Go Eun, who was always worried about Ji Yeon, only asked Ju Ran to look after her youngest daughter and gave her expensive gifts without Ji Yeon knowing.
She hoped that as a mother who had sent her daughter away, her daughter would be taken care of well, and on the other hand, she might have had a feeling of how strong and fierce Ju Ran was.
Go Eun looked at Ju Ran, but did not respond.
Ju Ran was annoyed, but she held back her frustration and spoke again.
“Inlaw, I have something urgent to discuss. Can you spare some time now?”
At that, Go Eun gave a slight laugh.
“Us, Lady Kang Ju Ran?”
Go Eun’s voice was not loud, but since many people were watching the two, her response was heard by many.

Short scene 2:
