“Um, what do you mean by that…”
“Right in front of me, you’re freely using company funds, saying it’s a mistake, no big deal, the amount is not that much. Do you think that’s normal?”
“That, Director Mun, is something I did for the sake of MJ Group.”
Thinking he was pushed to the edge of the cliff, Juhwan said whatever came to his mind.
Believing that as long as he denied it was his fault, he added another excuse to cover it up.
“Did I do it just for myself to live well? It’s to meet people while publicizing how great our son-in-law is. Strictly speaking, it’s a promotional expense. However, since we couldn’t handle the expense properly, there was a bit of illegality involved, so if you could understand that…”
“Are you mentioning our Hyuk-joo’s name right now?”
“Uh…”
Under Eun-su’s cold gaze, Juhwan’s mouth froze.
With a darkened complexion, he only observed Eun-su’s reaction with a gloomy expression. After a moment of silence, Eun-su sighed once and said quietly.
“Do you think I wouldn’t know what our President Oh did?”
“…I’m sorry.”
“I know, but what can I do? It’s not a significant amount, just as President Oh said. You could think of it as me providing living expenses for my son-in-law’s family, right? Isn’t that so?”
“If you think so, I don’t have much to say…”
“But if things had reached this point before I could cover it up, there’s nothing we can do. It’s appropriate to undergo a sincere investigation.”
“Even so…”
Unable to avoid the investigation, Juhwan couldn’t respond properly to Yeongran’s words. Then, a thought quickly crossed his mind, and he twisted his lips into a smile.
“Oh, right. Why didn’t I think of that earlier?”
He had a vulnerability that could tarnish the honor of the MJ Group. If he brought it up, even the invincible Moon Yeongran would have to undertake rescue activities for him.
“Ahem.”
Juhwan coughed lightly and raised his head.
With his sudden change in attitude, Yeongran furrowed her eyebrows.
“If President Oh comes out like this, I can’t help it either.”
Juhwan, grabbing onto the weight, put on a stubborn act. Wondering if there was suddenly a significant threat, Yeongran stared at him intently.
Facing Yeongran’s gaze, Juhwan confidently thought it was his turn to wield the knife.
“Didn’t Mr. Moon have an upright married life?”
“What kind of upright married life can there be?”
“He openly met other women, leaving aside my kind daughter. If that becomes known to the world, how ridiculous will the MJ Group look?”
“My kind daughter… Well, if President Oh says so, I’ll tell the story too.”
Seeing Yeongran effortlessly counter his words without any sign of surprise, Juhwan quickly lowered his tail. He felt that something was going wrong.
“When Eun-su was young, she pretended to be sick.”
“H-How do you know that…”
“Where can there be eternal secrets in this world?”
“Of course, but she recovered! She’s healthy now!”
“In a prestigious household like ours, sending in a sick daughter as a daughter-in-law, I even thought about filing for annulment of the marriage. Even though it happened in the past, there won’t be anything to gain by doing that.”
“… ”
“Eun-su was deceived, not President Oh.”
Yeongran spoke subtly, glancing at Juhwan. In the matter of concealing the history of pediatric cancer, Juhwan strategically distanced himself from responsibility.
In doing so, he knew that the selfish Oh Juhwan would undoubtedly do as instructed.
“What will happen if that woman has Mr. Moon’s child?”
“Ah, I forgot to mention that I was so busy. President Oh misunderstood.”
“Misunderstood?”
Juhwan stared at Yeongran with widened eyes.
“Suyeon Ji has never had a child.”
“… ”
“Hyeok-joo just helped because he felt sorry for that child. It’s not as if President Oh deceived him.”
“Who would believe that!”
Juhwan spat out, raising his voice.
“If you can’t trust me, go ahead and spread it around, President Oh. Even if you do, President Oh won’t gain anything from it. Of course, if you go around making noise like that, be prepared for embezzlement, misappropriation, and defamation to be added.”
Yeongran kindly informed Juhwan that there was nothing he could do. Seeing his pale face, Yeongran muttered to herself in a small voice.
“But there’s something interesting.”
With the confidence that she could now shake the other party in her grasp, Yeongran’s lips curled slightly upward.
Now, with just a word, Juhwan would undoubtedly do anything, hungry for the past three days like a famished person.
“Some of the money President Oh embezzled was going into an account under Eun-su’s name.”
“What?”
Juhwan’s eyes widened like saucers.
He had never put the embezzled money into Eun-su’s account. Considering his good memory regarding money matters, Juhwan was confident.
He raised his hand.
“I haven’t done that. Why would I put such money into Eun-su’s account?”
“According to what I’ve seen, that’s correct.”
“Where could it have gone wrong?”
Claiming it was absurd, Juhwan shook his head vehemently this time.
Staring at him, denying strongly, Yeongran opened her mouth.
“Who actually did it or not is not important.”
“What do you mean…”
“In the prosecution’s investigation, they judge based on the results. It’s crucial to determine where the money President Oh embezzled ultimately went.”
Yeongran pressed the narrowed space between her eyebrows with her fingertip.
After exhaling a rather heavy sigh, she tightly pursed her lips, then opened and closed them again.
“I have no emotions towards President Oh. I just feel betrayed by Eun-su.”
Juhwan pondered each word that came out of Yeongran’s mouth.
They were probably not fabricated lies. What did she really want to say?
After rolling his eyes for a while, deep in thought, Juhwan’s eyebrows twitched suddenly.
When the male lead is punished by carrying the female lead’s child and having periods like a woman
“I’ve given birth to two children for you, yet you still think about him.
Was I nothing but his substitute to you from beginning to end?”
