“After Line’s investigation of the Taeseong case was transferred to Nansul, there had been no progress. Juhyuk began to feel anxious.
Was the prosecutor planning to summon soon even grasping the core of this case or on the right track?
The problem was that the prosecutor in charge was Yoon Nansul.
Known as a princess both at Hankuk University Law School and in the prosecutor’s office, Prosecutor Yoon Nansul came from a prestigious family with generations in the legal field, with a father who was a Constitutional Court Chief Justice and a mother who was a judge.
Due to this background, even her seniors and the chief prosecutor were careful around her, aptly earning her the nickname ‘princess.’
Thus, no one in the organization dared to speak ill of Nansul, except Juhyuk.
‘Here’s the summary of the investigation compiled by Prosecutor Jin,’ Juhyuk handed Nansul the concise summary of the extensive materials submitted by Taeseong.
‘Why should I refer to what Jin Line compiled?’
Juhyuk, trying to remain calm in the face of Nansul’s childish rhetoric, replied dryly, ‘It’s not just a reference. This is the main material. It’s better to proceed this way.’
Nansul didn’t even glance at the document Juhyuk offered. Juhyuk, frustrated, tossed the document onto her desk. Nansul looked up at him as it landed.
‘Yoon Nansul, you know this isn’t a small case, right? Line and I investigated this, but it’s significant.’
Nansul, dodging Juhyuk’s seriousness, lifted her head more defiantly.
‘Of course, it’s the Taeseong case. But since the seniors didn’t help Jin Line, you two had to investigate it alone, right?’
Juhyuk crossed his arms and looked down at her disapprovingly. He didn’t have the energy to correct her attitude when there was work to be done.
‘I’m really curious why you’re so eager about this case.’
Nansul had shown great interest in the Taeseong case even before it was assigned to her.
‘To get involved with Taeseong?’
A too simple thought that Juhyuk hadn’t anticipated.
Juhyuk, not wanting to waste time arguing, pointed to the document on the desk.
‘Please, read this. The real culprit is elsewhere.’
Nansul chuckled at his words.
‘So what if there’s another culprit? The case ends with Na Song Kang taking responsibility, right?’
Hearing her words, Juhyuk felt a cold intuition. She seemed to echo the stance of Taeseong’s legal team.
‘We’ll see what happens.’
This was why Juhyuk disliked Nansul. Her misuse of prosecutorial power and her indifference to potentially sentencing someone innocent revealed a lack of the qualities required of a prosecutor.
Moreover, her passion was directed in a completely different way from the truth of this case, leaving Juhyuk feeling dismayed.”
“Really, I didn’t want to talk about work, but the ethical responsibility of being a prosecutor weighed heavily on my shoulders, and I couldn’t hold back. What constrained me more was the current situation faced by Director Na Song Kang.
With his lawyer practically handing him over, a slight misstep in the investigation could result in an innocent person being unjustly sentenced.
‘Let’s not do the thing where we fit the charges to the suspect.’
She visibly showed her displeasure, frowning and not wanting to hear it.
‘You know this case was avoided by the seniors at first for some reason, but now it’s infamous for being a lot of work, and everyone openly avoids it. If you volunteered to take it, then investigate it responsibly. Or, if not, let go of it now. I’ll handle it alone,’ Juhyuk practically advised and left Nansul’s office.
Nansul’s gaze lingered on the summary Juhyuk left behind. The paper seemed to hold power. Resentment filled her as she remembered the traces left by Line.
Jin Line, if their relationship had to be defined, was like a nemesis. The deeper the losses against Line, who had no notable background or origins, the deeper her hatred grew. Every time Line ranked first, people would whisper behind her back.
‘Even with her dad’s and mom’s help, Yoon Nansul can’t win against Jin Line even once.’
Thinking of those moments, Nansul stared at the paper for a while and eventually, unable to control her frustration, grabbed the summary and threw it into the trash can.
As the prosecution’s direction was likely to turn against Song Kang due to Line’s absence, he couldn’t help but be restless.
The office near the Taeseong Group’s building had been fully prepared, waiting only for her first arrival.
Arriving at the address Song Kang texted, Line stood in front of the door with a password lock and took out her phone.
Hesitating on the last number of the password, she realized it was her birthday and also the day her parents passed away.
The door opened from inside. Line stepped back two steps, following the direction of the opening door. Song Kang had arrived earlier.
‘Thinking it might be a hassle to remember the password, I set it as your birthday, but why are you taking so long? Come in,’ Song Kang said, holding the door wide open.
Male lead is reincarnated to save his wife
I’ve also read this one twice already. The female lead is kinda soft and gets embarrassed easily—not really my type, but the plot is definitely worth reading. Hurry up and read it, y’all!
Intro
When Shen Yuan encountered Su Jin again in his previous life, she had already become the Prime Minister of the current dynasty. As for him, the former top young master of the capital, he had long since fallen into the abyss, becoming a singer on a pleasure boat.
After a song ended, he was redeemed and sent to the Su Residence.
Su Jin respected and cherished him, gave him a roof over his head, and bestowed him with warmth. Shen Yuan fell deeper and deeper, but before he could express his feelings, Su Jin passed away.
Shen Yuan died to follow her in death, but instead, he returned to when he was fifteen years old.
At that time, he was not yet engaged, and Su Jin was just a poor scholar.
Shen Yuan gritted his teeth, casting aside all his pride, and thought of ways to coax and entice her every day.
The colder and more indifferent Su Jin was towards him, the more proactive Shen Yuan became.
He was not afraid of being mocked by the world, only wanting to marry his Wife-master early, to hold her hand and never let go for a lifetime.
