“There hasn’t been any significant movement yet. The sole witness hasn’t woken up from a coma, and there’s still no clear evidence to arrest him.”
Even if there was evidence, since Minwoo had already left France, he could only be forcibly returned when he stayed in a country that had an extradition treaty. But even so, how long could he keep running?
“Anyway, it’s impressive. How well he managed to keep everyone’s mouths shut. No one knows yet. That rascal Minwoo, pretending to be on vacation and not going to work.”
“Still, he won’t be able to hold out for long. It will leak to the press soon.”
When Jeho tried to drink again, Woo-gyeol snapped his fingers as if he remembered something.
“Yeah. And you know what. There’s a secret ledger. The one Director Yoon told me about before. I think Vice President Kwon heard about that story.”
“Sure?”
At Jeho’s question, Woogyul nodded vigorously. Then he soon lowered his head.
“Well, Minwoo is in this situation now. Will he care about that kind of thing?”
“If I know Little Father, he’ll pay more attention to the secret ledger. It’s a matter of life and death for him.”
“The regular board meeting this time will be quite interesting.”
Jeho smirked and took a sip of water.
After parting with Woogyul and returning home, Jeho headed straight to the guest room where Yuri was.
He thought she would still be asleep, but the bed was empty. As he looked around, a note on the kitchen island caught his eye.
“We agreed to go to the officetel together yesterday.”
Muttering to himself, Jeho touched the paper. Seeing that it was written that she would come in the afternoon, it meant she had something to do before that.
After staring at the note Yuri left for a while, Jeho turned and headed to the study. He walked to the bookshelf, opened the safe, and took out the ledger placed under the wooden box, bringing it to the desk.
Sitting down, he looked seriously at the numbers written in the ledger and slowly began flipping through the pages.
“I made plenty of cucumber side dishes. Put them in the refrigerator, and take them when you leave later.”
After finishing breakfast and getting up from the table, Mrs. Ahn showed the container of side dishes to Yuri. Except for the cucumber side dish, she had put various other side dishes in the container.
“You don’t have to put too much. Yoo-ri likes cucumber side dishes.”
“Don’t worry about Yoo-ri. Sometimes, if I do it for her, it’s enough.”
Perhaps because it was the weekend, or she was sleeping in, Yuri didn’t come downstairs to have breakfast together. Since talking about Minwoo’s situation a few days ago, they hadn’t had a chance to talk.
Thinking she might still be asleep, Jeho went upstairs with the intention of seeing Yuri for a moment. Knocking on the door and opening it, he noticed a note on the kitchen island.
“What are you doing?”
“Oh, Unni. I was organizing my things in advance. I have to leave here soon.”
At first, Yuri seemed excited about going abroad. However, from some point on, she reluctantly packed her belongings, seemingly having found out the real reason she had to go abroad. But she never showed any discomfort in front of them.
“Sorry, Unni.”
Yuri stopped what she was doing and hugged Yuri, who approached her silently.
“It’s okay. What are you sorry for? It’s not like you separated Minwoo and me….”
“Other than that.”
“Yeah?”
“You know what I’m talking about, right, Unni?”
“Okay. What’s there to apologize for? It’s not like you’re the one who separated Minwoo and me……”
“Besides that.”
“Yeah?”
“Unni, you know what I’m talking about.”
Yuri released the embraced arms, stepped back, and looked at Yuri intently. For a moment, Yuri was left speechless and couldn’t say anything. Until now, the two had never opened up and talked about their birth.
Yuri assumed that Mrs. Ahn, Yuri’s biological mother, knew the fact, but she didn’t have the courage to ask.
“…Yuri.”
“Sorry, Unni. If I had the choice, I would never have been born.”
“When did you find out?”
It was a simple question, but a dark shadow fell over Yuri’s face. Even just recalling that time seemed painful.
“Before Mom passed away, she gave me a letter. She told me to open it when I went to college later. After the funeral, as soon as I came home, I opened it.”
Now it seemed like Yuri would understand. At that time, Yuri was so rebellious that she couldn’t be controlled. She thought it was difficult for her because her mother had passed away, but it turned out that she was shocked by the revelation of her birth.
“It must have been very difficult for you alone. Why didn’t you tell me?”
“Unni, I have my pride too. How could I tell Unni that?”
Yuri continued, rubbing her reddened eyes with the back of her hand.
“I was young, but I knew everything. I felt so sorry for Mom who had passed away. Of course, I felt sorry for Unni too.”
She had never thought about it. Even her younger sister must have gone through quite a difficult time in her own way.
It wasn’t just her own pain. Of course, what happened afterward was regrettable, but Yuri couldn’t have changed the situation much.
“But why are you telling me this now?”
Actually, when Yuri found out everything, she wanted to tell Unni when they had a big fight with Dad. But she didn’t have the courage. She was afraid of losing Unni forever.
Maybe her sister’s words were true. If she had confessed back then, she would have been angry for hiding it and keeping it a secret. At that time, Yuri tried to cut off ties with her family.
“I ended up hiding more and more from Unni. Even though I liked Minwoo oppa, I couldn’t show it. When Unni said she would have a strategic marriage with Minwoo oppa, it was the same. But now, Unni, I don’t want to do that anymore. I’m too tired. Instead of postponing it, I think it’s better to face it head-on.”
As Yuri listened in silence, Yuri, perhaps misunderstanding her mood, hugged her again, subtly pulling her closer.
“Unni, don’t hate me too much.”
It was a habit her sister had had since she was young. Whenever Yuri looked like she was angry, her sister would come closer and hug her.
“Why would I hate you? ”
Yuri patted her sister’s back with a perplexed face.
She didn’t hate her. She couldn’t say that she loved her sister terribly like when she was young, but at least she didn’t hate her. And she didn’t want to hurt her sister.
If only I could, I wanted to protect as long as my strength reached.
Leaving the main house, Yuri headed to the officetel. While packing her belongings, she seriously contemplated.
If the affair is revealed, who will suffer the most?
Honestly, she wasn’t particularly concerned about the disadvantages Chae Eui-won would face. Her father would find a way to survive in the political arena no matter what. Mrs. Ahn probably had already resolved everything when she prevented the affair.
The person who would suffer the most from this incident would be her sister, Yuri. Yuri’s life would take a 180-degree turn.
So, what would happen to Kwon Jeho?
It seemed like he would experience some disruptions in the planned succession.
Since Minwoo had already been driven out overseas, he wouldn’t suffer much setback in the competition for the successor position.
“Ha.”
She chuckled at herself for worrying about others before herself when she planned revenge.
So, always being the one who gets hurt.
Chae Yul-ri, take care of yourself first before telling others to do so!
But how could she take care of herself?
Unfortunately, she couldn’t come up with a clear answer.
