“Now, finally, a few words from our chairman. Please welcome him with applause!”
At the host’s words, Chairman Jo, receiving applause, stood up from his seat. Then, buttoning his suit, he ascended the platform with dignified steps.
Adjusting the microphone to his height, Chairman Jo, soaked in new emotions, scanned the audience.
Of course, the visually striking two people standing prominently in the middle caught his attention, but he decided to ignore them.
He had every qualification to enjoy this moment.
“Hello, I’m Jogukjin. It feels really new to stand here.”
He cautiously opened his mouth. But then, a beep sound came from the microphone, scratching his ears. The head of the promotional team rushed to adjust the microphone.
Unintentionally, Chairman Jo took a step back from the platform, observing the struggling promotional team head. Then, the secretary approached and whispered discreetly.
“Chairman, there’s something you need to see.”
“Later.”
“But you should see it now…”
“Later!”
He felt irritated. Chairman Jo had been waiting for this moment for too long, so nothing was as important as perfecting this occasion today.
“Alright, Chairman.”
As the promotional team head stepped back, Chairman Jo returned to the platform and opened his mouth again. However, this time, the microphone malfunctioned, and his voice didn’t reach the audience.
“Why is this happening?”
He tapped the microphone, but then his voice echoed from the speakers.
[Dash] Can you hear me? Barely.Clearly, it was his own voice. However, the problem was that he wasn’t saying a single word now. Still, the familiar voice didn’t stop. [Dash]The driver who gave a ride back then died, and the coroner in charge didn’t survive either, right? All they have is circumstantial evidence, not concrete proof.
For a moment, it felt like his heart dropped beneath his feet.
Chairman Jo, stiffened all over, barely turned his body to look behind.
On the screen that had portrayed the short history of Ocean Shipping like a movie a while ago, the two were now prominently displayed. Although their faces were pixelated, Chairman Jo immediately recognized who they were.
[Dash]What about the wife of that driver? [Dash]Choi Cheolho’s wife? She knows nothing. Tae Dong Construction failed, and the president died, so that’s the end of it.It was himself and Heo Gyeongjun.
On the playing screen, in the flowing audio, people began to murmur.
Only now did Chairman Jo recall the words Taejoon dropped in the restroom earlier.
[Dash]He said he would have an interesting show here today.Unconsciously, Chairman Jo turned his head to find Taejoon and Seorin among the crowd. Their distinctive visuals made it easy to spot them amidst the people.
Taejoon and Seorin were smiling, as if watching an entertaining show.
Amidst this, the playing screen was revealing a tremendous truth.
[Dash]Everything. I knew all about the accident that happened to Baek Seorin 20 years ago, the truth, and the fact that Jung Okja was murdered because of that truth. And also that I covered it up.The truth from 20 years ago that no one could have imagined.
As the light of despair brushed Chairman Jo’s eyes, Taejoon whispered as if savoring it.
“Enjoy the show.”
My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)
Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.
Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.
Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.
“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”
Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.
A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.
“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”
Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.
Gu Sui: “……”
He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?
Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.
Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.
Hmm… she looked a little familiar.
It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.
Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.
“Finally, I found you.”
