“No, why isn’t she coming out like this? It’s driving me crazy. Is it taking too long?”
Minhyung, who had come to see Seorin’s worried face for the first time, did not step away from her until the end of the evaluation, waiting for her surprisingly intact appearance.
Uncomfortable in the car, he moved to a cafe inside the building and ordered a cup of coffee. He kept a keen eye on the elevator, the only passage from which she could come down.
He wanted to see that expression of despair fleeting across her expressionless face.
Even the mighty Baek Seorin has something she cannot do.
Yes, just that expression alone, he felt like he could stretch out and sleep well from today.
However, as the waiting became longer than expected, Minhyung sent a message to Director Yoon.
[DASH] Hasn’t the result come out yet? Is it going well? Let me know when the result is out.But as expected, the phone remained silent.
When he, anxious, gulped down an Americano that tasted like neither this nor that, finally, the right elevator door opened, revealing Director Yoon.
Surprised, Minhyung got up from his seat and left the cafe, approaching Director Yoon.
“Director Yoon! Director Yoon!”
When he called, Director Yoon turned around. It seemed like he was avoiding eye contact by narrowing his eyes for a moment.
Minhyung, who was sure of victory, couldn’t understand Director Yoon’s reaction.
“What about the result? Did it go well? Right?”
As he asked the question directly, Director Yoon pushed up his glasses and kept his words.
At that moment, the left elevator door opened, and a familiar figure descended. It was Director Park. The fact that Director Park came down meant Seorin was also there.
So, shifting his gaze, sure enough, Seorin followed.
Minhyung unconsciously clenched his fist at the expression so chic that it couldn’t be known whether she succeeded or not. But when she passed by him, Seorin’s black pupils looked at him as if peering through.
It was just a moment, but Minhyung felt an unbearable misery throughout his body, as if committing a sin and being stripped bare in front of her.
Really, how can she have such a look?
In her black pupils, numerous emotions were condensed. However, among the many emotions, there was only one thing they were saying.
‘Dare you, someone like you.’
With just one glance, he felt an unbearable misery as if committing a sin in front of her.
And Minhyung instinctively realized.
‘I lost!’
How could such a thing happen?
For today, Director Yoon had diligently managed the lobby, even hiring an actor to manipulate the situation. He boasted that Seorin, who had experienced betrayal once, would likely be shaken.
However, the result could not be reversed.
The iron lady, Baek Seorin.
It was the moment when her true value was properly demonstrated.
Already, watching Seorin leave the building ahead of him, Minhyung shook his fists, wishing he could disappear into the ground.
Unnecessary resentment was directed at Director Yoon.
You were confident! You said there would be no way you would be behind in this plan that invested an enormous amount of funds! What a disgrace!
Minhyung, leaving Director Yoon who was facing death behind, stepped out of the building, heading towards his parked car.
He got in the car and took a deep breath.
However, he couldn’t forget Seorin’s gaze when she passed by him.
No matter how much he struggled, the fact that he couldn’t surpass her had come to him as a miserable reality.
Finally, feeling like he had turned over a cesspool, Minhyung exploded.
“Uaaah [DASH] Ack! Damn!”
“Congratulations, Vice President.”
Driving, Manager Park greeted Seorin, reflected in the rearview mirror.
“Am I someone to be congratulated? You should congratulate our team members.”
“Still, if it weren’t for you, it would have been a project I wouldn’t have dared to pursue. It was also your idea, Vice President.”
“Thinking is easy. It’s difficult to make it a reality by running with your own feet. But still, it’s unavoidable that it feels good.”
“That’s right. Do you have the right to enjoy that feeling thoroughly? And did you see Jo Minhyung’s expression a while ago?”
“Yeah.”
“But why on earth did Jo Minhyung come there?”
“Well…… Haeyang Shipping acquired a construction company this time, partnering with Parao. They probably contracted the theme hotel planned by Parao. So, this matter was likely as important to Jo Minhyung as it was to me.”
“Ah… I didn’t know.”
Seorin turned her gaze out the window and smiled faintly. In fact, the moment she saw Jo Minhyung’s crumpled face, she, too, felt the accumulated bitterness of ten years subside.
That day, because Jo Minhyung leaked information that the bidding candidate was Parao, Seorin could move quickly.
The fact that Parao was attracting enormous funds from various places and that Haeyang Shipping had acquired a construction company suggested that they would prioritize a theme hotel emphasizing splendor rather than a special theme.
