New York to Incheon UAIRLINE 723e.
It had flown for seven hours. Around eight hours remained.
Somewhere halfway between New York and Seoul.
The first class, with more crew members than passengers, was asleep under the dim lights.
Kwon Jae Ha’s gaze, moving between an open laptop and documents, landed suddenly on his cooling coffee cup. It was an expression neither showing fatigue nor disturbance.
“Kyle? Are you listening? Why Seoul all of a sudden? Is there a problem?”
A problem.
Recalling Pierre’s voice, Jae Ha smirked faintly.
If there was a problem, it was that no one would admit it.
In Blackstone Partners, the largest hedge fund in the US, the standing of Kyle J. Alexis, that is, Kwon Jae Ha, was already firm.

The penthouse he had entered holding the hand of his adoptive father, Sean Alexis, at the age of 10. The person waiting for Kwon Jae Ha there was Genesis Alexis.
A teacher and a parent. A boss and a business partner. And in the end, a grandmotherlike friend.
Jae Ha, lifting his lips from the coffee cup, gently smiled and shook his head.
“Kyle, surely you don’t plan to live single like Sean? You need a wife and child!”
“You mean you need a greatgrandchild.”
“What’s the difference? What’s good for you is good for me, it’s always been the top priority! By the way, not ‘a child’ but ‘children’.”
What was she trying to say? She repeated the same story several times when he announced his trip to Seoul.
The once demanding figure of his mentor was now nowhere to be seen.
In fact, Genesis’s initially tough attitude did not last long. Because the 10yearold boy was too strict with himself.
He once asked her a question, right after he finished his French and Chinese lessons and was preparing for a piano lesson.
[Kyle, I fully understand that you’re smart. But I have no idea why you’re running like a racehorse. Do you even know yourself?]Jae Ha, who stroked his eyelashes with a long finger, gave a bitter laugh.

Who taught you about purposes and reasons? Has that ever changed? There wasn’t any particular reason to change.
Quickly and accurately collecting and analyzing information, planning and executing efficient investments. Sticking a knife into the backs of competitors and feeling joy. A life chasing the maximization of profit.
In other words, like a hunting dog that scents money and runs around the swamp day and night.
Ah, of course. A dog sitting on wealth and fame, enjoying a luxurious life.
Naturally, there are plenty of people around trying to pick up even the fallen bean crumbs.
Jae Ha, who pushed the empty cup to the end of the table, laughed out quietly.
The money that Genesis gave to him to play with when he was 15 was $100,000. He started buying and selling domains with that money and tripled it in a year.
In fact, since then, Jae Ha grew without any interference.
He became a complete ‘Alexis’, and Korea became more distant.
“Shall I take away the empty cup?”
Jae Ha gave a slight nod. To the gentle question of whether there was anything more he needed, he answered with a brief ‘No’.

A crew member who returned to Galileo asked a colleague.
“Which side is the senior on? 6A? 6D?”
“I’m, D. Based on looks, of course A, but somehow it’s uncomfortable even being near.”
“That’s what I’m saying. He’s too cold. I’ve never seen him laugh. Would it cost him to smile with that face? Ugh.”
“Wouldn’t he laugh if it costs money?”
The eyes of the flight attendant, wholly captured by passenger 6A, narrowed even more.
“Ah, look at that tightly fitted shirt. It looks like he’s about to swim.”
“That’s right. He looks slim yet seems rather solid. Oh, D.”
“Yes?”
The flight attendant found the sparkling call light at the senior’s chin gesture. She gave an awkward smile and then trotted off.
6D, Choi Sun Woo.
A surgical specialist at St. Roosevelt Hospital in New York. He had recently obtained a long vacation shortly after completing his residency and gaining his specialist qualification.
“May I help you?”
“I thought I was wearing something comfortable, but apparently not. Could you get me a pair of slippers? I can’t see them.”
“Here, they’re down here!”
The flight attendant, who pulled out the slippers that had been hidden under the seat, smiled brightly.
Upon closer inspection, he was undoubtedly a sadeyed handsome man. His looks would not lose to 6A even if compared.
“If you need anything else, please let me know.”
“Ah, can I ask a question?”
“Of course.”
“That is… what would be a good gift for a woman I’m meeting after 3 years? Is there any particular gift that Korean women currently prefer?”
“I’m not sure about the relationship, but wouldn’t flowers be safe for a lady?”
“Safe? As in, secure?”
“Yes, secure. Is that bad?”
The two, who had been exchanging words in hushed voices, let out a light laugh.

Choi Sun Woo, who moved naturally, caught sight of 6A. The man with whom he had briefly exchanged a glance when boarding was still immersed in his work.
