“But this time, Director, you are not the one being indicted.”
Geum Moran, Na Song-rim, and Na Song-un were the subjects of the indictment.
“Your case, Director, has been appealed by the prosecution. And it seems like they are trying to reveal the truth of this matter through a new case.”
Song-kang felt not only confused but also a heavy heart.
Jin La-in, that smart person, had a sense of what significant plan was being drawn. Worries overwhelmed him.
Once, he thought she could uncover the truth of every case and catch the real criminals, but if it meant putting her life at stake, he was willing to give it all up.
So, he let go of everything… But now, to jump into such a dangerous case again…
“Would Geum Moran stay quiet?”
Song-kang asked Cha Hae-in, even though he knew it was a meaningless question. Geum Moran couldn’t stay quiet; she was someone who would do anything to survive.
“She has already visited the head of the law firm. She requested the appointment of an external law firm in addition to the Taesung Law Firm.”

He didn’t know who would approve it, but the authority was in Song-kang’s hands. Then a knock on the door was heard, and the secretary entered.
“Director, Geum Moran is here.”
The secretary stood, looking at Song-kang’s reaction.
“Bring her in.”
Following the secretary’s guidance, Geum Moran entered the director’s office. Hae-in stepped aside to give them space. Geum Moran glanced at him and quickly shifted her gaze to Song-kang, immediately changing her posture.
“Song-kang, do you know? Does this make any sense? Me, you, and your siblings, we are kids who live without the law.”
In her self-hypnotic tone, Geum Moran’s words unsettled Song-kang. He looked at a distant mountain.
“How much did you ignore Taesung…! A mere district prosecutor!”
Whether it was too urgent or not, Geum Moran’s tone, revealing her true nature, irritated Song-kang. More than anything, mentioning the district prosecutor who… shouldn’t be described as ‘mere’…
“If you’re so upright, won’t you be acquitted even without a lawyer?”

“But, please consider my honor as Taesung’s mother…”
Song-kang turned away from Geum Moran with a displeased expression. Hoping for the best, Geum Moran came to find Song-kang, but as expected, she gained no results and headed straight to the chairman’s office.
Song-kang had been waiting for when she would make the call from the chairman’s office. He could tell what action Geum Moran would take without even seeing it.
As expected, Chairman Na called Song-kang. He showed a somewhat uncomfortable expression.
“I should have uprooted you last time, but because I took a look, thinking it would be pretty, you keep crawling, thinking I’ll let you go!”
Furious at the prosecution’s challenge, Chairman Na vented his anger, and on top of that, Geum Moran added fuel to the fire.
“Do as your mother wishes.”
The expression ‘mother’ stabbed Song-kang’s heart.
“I cannot do that.”
“What?”
“What are you afraid of, to the extent of appointing an external law firm in addition to Taesung Law Firm? I don’t understand.”

“Even if your mother and siblings go through hardships now, you don’t care! You can say that after going through the same agony for the past few months!”
Chairman Na’s words intensified Song-kang’s suppressed frustration.
“Chairman, the process of proving my innocence has never been comfortable. But during that time…”
During that time, the image of Prosecutor Jin La-in could not be avoided. Song-kang closed and opened his eyes.
“During that time, I learned more and realized how to operate a company in the future. If there is no guilt, it will be resolved without any problems.”
Song-kang’s words were not wrong. Chairman Na coughed uncomfortably and couldn’t continue speaking.
“Chairman, I understand what you are concerned about. If that’s the case, we should let the investigation proceed fairly. In my judgment, it would be counterproductive to increase our presence and participate in the trial now.”
“This time, close your eyes and appoint an external law firm.”
No matter how much he was the chairman, it was not something he could push forward as he pleased. If he proceeded without Song-kang’s approval, he might face not only criticism from the board but also legal responsibility.
“I cannot do that. The hiring of lawyers from Taesung Law Firm is also under consideration.”

“What?”
As Song-kang turned away, Chairman Na called him again.
“Song-kang.”
That call was not just anger; it was mixed with earnestness. Song-kang stopped and turned around.
“The roots of Taesung may shake this time.”
What could he be worried about?
Chairman Na’s unexpected attitude became a piece of the puzzle. Although all the pieces of the puzzle were not in place, it seemed to vaguely show some form, like a puzzle.
Could it be implicated…?
“Now, tell me honestly. How much do you know?”
He asked Chairman Na cautiously. Chairman Na kept his eyes closed and opened them without any tremor.

“I know Geum Moran couldn’t be like that, but…”

Top celebrity Yu Shu suddenly fell into a coma during a concert.
Research scientist Yan Jin fainted in the lab after working overtime.
Two people with no connection were rushed to the same hospital.

Suddenly, the entire nation discovered that a live streaming app had been forcibly installed on their phones.
Upon opening it, they heard the two discussing how to escape from the brothel.
The entire internet was in an uproar.

“Big sister bravely took action to defend the chastity of our idol!”

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
[Although it’s inappropriate, I also want a young and handsome boyfriend to have my child.]
