“What? Kyle? Are you listening to me?”
“I’m listening. Very well, for over 10 minutes.”
“Chairman Schneider is completely intractable! He’s acting as if he won’t deal with any of us! That damned old man! If he finds out you went to Seoul instead of Paris, it’s obvious what will happen! He probably won’t even take the call!”
“Pierre, consider your salary. Don’t you have to handle a few old men as picky as Schneider?”
“Kyle, you’re really pushing it. I’m not in the mood for jokes!”
“Did that sound like a joke?”
At the end of the smooth French, a soft laugh was attached.
To an outsider, it could have sounded like the whispers exchanged between lovers.
But in reality, he was openly mocking his counterpart.
His longtime friend and the holder of an important position at the Paris Central Branch of Blackstone Partners, Pierre Lucson.
Kwon Jae Ha, who was looking at his shiny shoes at the end of his crossed leg, let out a silent sigh.
It’s disgraceful to rely on the shoulder of ‘ignorance is bliss’. But his current mood, he could afford to show a small amount of goodwill.
“Just wait patiently. That’s the only hint I can give you. You know as well as I do that the NEM’s management rights sale issue will eventually be reflected as bad news on the stock price. Last weekend, the Hong Kong Container Freight Index (HCI) reached a record high.”
“…That’s right.”
“Is it? Listen, Pierre. Think about it. If this upcycle continues, do you think Schneider will come forward to sell the CB right away? He’ll talk about holding onto his shares and selling them around the year after next without any loss.”
“Hmm, so what you’re saying is, just as it has risen sharply, there’s also a possibility of a sudden drop at any time? Ah! So it’s ultimately a psychological war?”
“No, don’t get it wrong. It’s a strategy based on analysis and statistics. Of course, if you, like now, call it a psychological war to a savvy Schneider, I don’t mind.”
“Okay! I got it! But Kyle, why did you suddenly change direction to Seoul?”
“It’s 9:57 in Paris. Did you say the meeting was at 10?”
“Oh, shoot! I’ll call you back!”
“It’s okay.”
Kwon Jae Ha pressed the end call button without even a short goodbye.
“Idiots who only know how to study. They only understand when you teach them one by one.”
A cold smile appeared on his face, which had been bluntly jeering.
It was because of the blonde who had approached him in an instant and arbitrarily sat down in front of him.
In fact, the woman had been waiting for the call to end, thinking about the first greeting she should give him.
His impressive appearance was only captivating for a moment. From the moment she realized who he was, it would be correct to say she felt distressed.
Moreover, his faint, sultry voice. It felt like a soft feather tickling her ears.
It didn’t matter who he was talking to and what kind of call he was making.
It felt like good fortune that they were the only two in this place right now.
“Hello.”
The woman who gave a lively greeting smiled with the corners of her mouth extended. It was clear that she was asking for a welcome.
However, the man remained silent, only holding a subtle smile.
The woman, who finally got anxious due to his relaxed attitude, opened her mouth again.
“Um… You’re Alexis, right? Kyle Alexis.”
“And you know me?”
A voice thrown bluntly without any high or low.
In the gaze devoid of any meaning, the woman’s face noticeably reddened.
She knew exactly who the man was.
Kyle J. Alexis. The next generation owner of the American financial conglomerate, the Alexis family.
There’s not much known about him due to his quiet and secretive personal life, but even that is considered charming.
“Megan Reed. Um, Ridgewood High School. We took APClass geometry together… Oh, I remember you were the first to get early admission to Harvard.”
The woman’s face reddened a bit more due to the man who arrogantly just nodded his head. However, she didn’t want to miss this opportunity easily.
The queen who created the current Alexis family, Genesis Alexis.
She, famous for not revealing her true feelings, unabashedly stated. Kyle was a ‘perfect creation’.
The blonde, who couldn’t take her eyes off that beautiful creation, quickly extended her business card.
“Call me if you remember me later.”
“If you know me well, you would also know that I have a fiancée.”
“I know. Who wouldn’t know that the two of you have been engaged for six long years? Anyway, are you going to Seoul? I’ve been there too. The place is truly…..”
The blonde, startled by the coughing sound of an employee, covered her mouth with her hand.
“Excuse me, Mr. Alexis, boarding will begin soon. I will guide you.”
Kwon Jae Ha, who got up from his seat, slowly buttoned his jacket.
“No, thank you, but I know where it is.”
The smile at the end of the man’s goodlooking lips, adjusting his clothes, was refreshing.
The blonde with a bitter expression stood up from her seat and extended her hand.
“You look happy. I wish you luck.”
The gaze that momentarily lingered on the woman’s hand soon shifted to the runway extending coolly beyond the fulllength window.
“I don’t need something like luck. But you’re right, I’m in a good mood.”
The faint and cool foreign language, Korean. The blonde who didn’t understand Korean just looked confused.
The man, who had been expressionless all along, slightly twisted his eyes.
“Just imagining it, it’s thrilling.”
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.
