Shocked and frightened by Kyunghee’s duplicity, Chaeyoon brushed her hair back with trembling hands.
During that time, the phone, which had turned off, vibrated briefly.
Even though it was a faint vibration, Chaeyoon reacted sensitively, startled.
“Miss Chaeyoon, if you’ve read it, please say something.”
The message from the employee who spread the rumor among the staff appeared, but she had no attention to spare for it right now.
“I’ll contact you later.”
Responding vaguely, Chaeyoon quickly checked Kyunghee’s message.
“He’s not answering the call. When you see this, please contact me.”
The moment she read the message, a shiver ran through her, and Chaeyoon took a deep breath.
‘Pull yourself together.’
She had to.
She had to remain calm to understand the situation without being deceived by Kyunghee’s duplicity.
The time the message arrived was shortly after Jae-oh went outside the room to take a call.
‘In that case…’
Chaeyoon, speculating about Kyunghee’s business, got up from her seat and headed outside.
Entering the empty meeting room, Chaeyoon swallowed dryly once before calling Kyunghee.
The phone connected quickly, as if she had been waiting for the call to come.
[Dash] Hello, Chaeyoon.With Kyunghee’s affectionate voice, goosebumps rose again, and Chaeyoon’s hair stood on end.
Feeling her body tense with nervousness, Chaeyoon moved her lips as casually as possible.
[Dash] Hello. Mother. I just saw your missed call. What’s the matter?
Hearing Chaeyoon’s usual voice, Kyunghee’s eyebrows furrowed.
Even with the company in chaos, Chaeyoon’s nonchalant tone was unexpected.
Kyunghee didn’t like the atmosphere of Chaeyoon, who had not slept a wink last night, contrasting with her.
“Did you see the news about the construction company change yesterday?”
[Dash] Yes.“I wanted to talk about that. Is now a good time?”
Kyunghee naturally assumed that Chaeyoon would say it’s okay.
[Dash] Oh, if it’s about the construction company, I don’t think there’s much to discuss with me.At the unexpected response, the end of Kyunghee’s eyebrow rose slightly.
It was unbelievable. Kyunghee coolly raised her lip as if saying, ‘That’s ridiculous,’ and said:
“If there’s nothing to talk about, what does that mean? The reason everything is in chaos right now is because of your divorce.”
[Dash]…“And, since you were the first one to bring up the divorce, make time to talk.”
Handing over responsibility to Chaeyoon with a kind yet pointed tone, Kyunghee thought Chaeyoon would follow her lead.
“Then, I’ll consider you understood what I said and end the call.”
As Kyunghee was about to end the call, Chaeyoon spoke.
[Dash] I’m sorry, but it won’t be possible right away.Kyunghee’s hand, which was about to take the phone away from her ear, froze.
“What did you say?”
[Dash] I said I can’t meet your request right away.A gasp escaped from Kyunghee.
“Chaeyoon, it seems you don’t really understand the seriousness of this situation right now…”
[Dash] I also want to meet Mother, discuss the situation, and share what happened, but my brother told me not to meet her yesterday.When Chaeyoon mentioned Jae-oh, Kyunghee’s mouth was sealed.
[Dash] Even if Mother wants to meet, she told me not to.“…”
[Dash] So, I won’t be able to meet right away. I hope you understand without any misunderstanding.“…”
[Dash] I’ll assess the situation and contact you as soon as possible.With the sound of the call ending, the phone was hung up.
Kyunghee threw the phone she was holding as it was.
Frustration that couldn’t be expressed in words rose in the face of the situation that didn’t go as planned.
Kyunghee held her sore neck with her hand and leaned her head back.
“Ah, I’ve been too complacent all this time.”
Without realizing.
“Does she even know what she’s talking about?”
Kyunghee’s mouth corners drooped coldly.
The gaze thinking about Jae-oh was fierce.
On the other hand, after the call with Kyunghee, Chaeyoon returned to her seat, still holding her slightly trembling hands, and regulated her breathing.
‘Now that we’ve bought some time, the only thing left is…’
[If you ever feel unwell, please contact me.]Chaeyoon’s eyes lit up firmly, recalling the man who had told her to contact him in place of Woojong.
“Wow, still no news whatsoever.”
Hoyeon, who found it ridiculous, put down the phone she was holding.
She had sent a voice message to resolve the situation, but there had been no contact for two days. What should she do if there was no contact?
“But I can’t just reveal the contract…”
While contemplating how to deal with the situation of Kyunghee and the severed contact, a secretary came in.
“I received a call from Mr. Choi Namseo.”
It was the man she intended to assign to Sooah.
The situation was that he was temporarily abroad due to Chaeyoon’s motorcycle accident, but now he was calling.
“What did he say?”
“Ms. Song Chaeyoon asked to meet.”
Hoyeon’s eyes sparkled.
“What did she say?”
The secretary played the voice message sent by the man.
“Hello. I am Song Chaeyoon, the victim of the contact accident that happened about three weeks ago. I contacted you because I have some questions about the accident, but you didn’t answer the phone. Please check the voice message and contact me.”
It definitely sounded like Song Chaeyoon’s voice.
Feeling like she had once again seized an unexpected opportunity, Hoyeon quickly said:
“Make the call.”
When the order was given, the secretary handed the phone that was calling the man to Hoyeon.
[Dash] Yes.“This is Kwon Hoyeon. When did you receive this message?”
Hoyeon didn’t know why Song Chaeyoon contacted this man, but any connection with him would be good.
[Dash] What should we do?Not knowing when and how this meeting would be used, Hoyeon immediately gave permission.
“She wants to meet. However, it has to be just the two of you.”
[Dash] Naturally. But, as you know, Song Chaeyoon didn’t call me; the secretary who was with her took my number.As the situation was difficult, it seemed like he was asking for more money.
“As long as you meet alone, I’ll take care of the cost. So, go ahead and meet her.”
[Dash] Yes. Understood.The deal was settled.
Some time later, a satisfactory message arrived.
“We’ve set a meeting.”
Hoyeon’s mouth corners stretched long.
