S-grade security matters are so secretive that they might surface once a year, or not at all, and definitely should not go outside.

Yeoneu, with a puzzled expression, clicked on the email.

All communications from C Pharmaceutical should be appropriately handled only from the secretary’s side until further instructions, and do not connect to the assigned lawyers.

Personally report to the team leader if you have any personal connection with C Pharmaceutical.

······In other words, all the lawyers at Ro&Yul were instructed to keep a distance from C Pharmaceutical.

So suddenly? Why?

It was just last week that Kim Juhwan, the CEO, had used Yeoneu messily to impress Vice President Park Hyunsoo.

But now, they were building a thorough wall and were instructed not to receive any calls. This happened just after the CEO had apologized to Yeoneu for the incident.

Honestly, there was only a 1% chance of that happening, but was there any chance they were trying to protect Yeoneu or something?

“Oh, come on. I’m not that important.”

Yeah, this organization doesn’t care about individual employees. Ro&Yul is not a delicate place that cherishes each employee.

While still shaking his head, the messenger window blinked. It was a group chat of close secretaries.

“Yeah, your friend worked there and quit, but the atmosphere was really bad.”

“Did the lawyers curse too? They called lawyers to calculate the bill for their drinking party. They sponsored the in-house workshop and called for a meeting at the hotel, making everyone chip in for the meal.”

Along with the revelations of C Pharmaceutical’s misdeeds that had spread unnoticed, congratulatory messages from colleagues poured in. Yeoneu also managed a few words of thanks.

“That’s right. Yeoneu was handling both of them at the same time. Must have been tough ㅠㅠ. Really suffered.”

Yeah, the two of them created quite a synergy. It was to the extent that one life was at risk.

Being able to think lightly of past events like recalling a joke must be thanks to having a good lover.

“Kwon Junhwi’s magic effect is amazing.”

Being next to someone with a high winning rate, everything seems to go smoothly! We must definitely celebrate this. Let’s ask him to have beef for dinner.

Yeoneu’s typing sound, full of excitement, became faster.

C Pharmaceutical, Vice President Park Hyunsoo’s office.

“So, are you all just going to sit there and watch quietly? Huh? Jusung Group is saying they’ll eat up the startup we’ve done all the groundwork for!”

Park Hyunsoo, who had been rallying the executives, couldn’t contain his temper and spat out a profanity in English.

People just exchanged serious looks and checked each other out, and no one dared to intervene in Park Hyunsoo’s eruption.

The investment case in the U.S. bio company was the first occasion for Park Hyunsoo to showcase his abilities since he took over the position of successor.
Moreover, there was another hidden intention. Taking advantage of the pretext of securing funds, it was an opportunity to establish a paper company and pocket some additional money under the table. So, even more reason to do our best.

Now that it’s almost done, suddenly Jusung Group intervened and started secret negotiations with the target company.

······The conditions offered by Jusung Group were overwhelmingly better than what Park Hyunsoo proposed.

“These Jusung guys have so much, and yet they want to snatch someone else’s meal!”

Park Hyunsoo, who had turned beet red with excitement, suddenly stood up and scolded the people.

“So, what are we supposed to do without any other alternatives!”

“······.”

Sighing as if anger was now a waste, Park Hyunsoo sat back down.

Taking advantage of the moment, the secretary, who was standing at the back, quietly approached.

“Vice President, something more serious has happened.”

What now? Annoyed, Park Hyunsoo turned to the secretary, who secretly whispered something.

“Three days ago, among the people you met when you went to the club······. One of them, who gave you some help, was arrested a while ago because of a drug crackdown.”

“What?”

For a moment, his pupils noticeably shook.

On that day, after a long time, he went to the club to relieve stress and, while having fun, received some special assistance. The news from the secretary meant that one of the guys who gave him drugs on that day was caught.

Why does Korea care so much about other people’s business! Regardless of how others enjoy themselves, why does it matter? Trying to hide his anxiety, Park Hyunsoo muttered nonsense.

“I did well not to mention my name, right?”

“Well, this kind of matter is treated very seriously.”

“Ugh. Call the legal team!”

The secretary, with a bowed head, dissuaded him with a voice that crawled into the ear.
