The Grand Temptation (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 93
A few hours before the emergency interim board meeting.
With a loud *click*, the safe door opened. Jae Ho carefully moved aside the wooden box and picked up the ledger underneath. After a quick glance at the cover, he flipped it open and checked the number on the last page.
“Huh, just as I expected.”
Jae Ho let out a quiet chuckle, closed the safe door, and tossed the ledger into the trash bin beneath his desk.
“Uncle, how can you be so naïve?”
When he’d first set the bait, he hadn’t anticipated Executive Director Kwon would take it so easily.
Jae Ho had deliberately leaked word to Executive Director Kwon’s closest shareholder allies that he’d obtained a secret ledger from Department Head Yoon—one containing crucial evidence that could finally reveal the true reason behind Vice Chairman Kwon’s forced resignation ten years ago.
That rumor quickly reached Executive Director Kwon, who then resorted to underhanded tactics to retrieve the ledger. Jae Ho hadn’t even considered that Executive Director Kwon might use Yuli.
He didn’t know exactly how the man had turned her to his side, but judging solely by the ledger swap, it wasn’t a bad move. Still, that minor victory was as far as Executive Director Kwon would get.
Arriving late to the board meeting, Executive Director Kwon stood frozen, wearing a stunned expression at the unexpected scene before him.
“You’re late. Please come in and take your seat.”
Jae Ho greeted him with a bright smile.
“Now, things are about to get serious.”
Executive Director Kwon, rooted to the spot and unable to move, only shuffled toward his seat after Chairman Kwon, seated at the head of the table, frowned and cleared his throat pointedly. Once Executive Director Kwon sat down, Jae Ho turned back toward the screen.
“This chart will make it easier to understand.”
An Indifferent Woman is the One Men Desire the Most
One-line summary: The female lead is actually cold-hearted and extremely rational. She has stage-by-stage relationships and won’t two-time, but there will always be someone who secretly likes her.
This novel has the following triggers, so if you’re sensitive to these, please don’t read:
1. The female lead has had many relationships, but she treated each one seriously and broke up properly.
It’s just that the men unilaterally pestered her incessantly. For the female lead, when she doesn’t like someone anymore, she simply doesn’t like them.
(This applies to her relationships with Male Lead 1, 2, 3, and 4 as well, but she’s loyal in each 1-on-1 relationship!)
2. In this novel, Male Lead 2 and the female lead kiss in a car, and Male Lead 1 sees it and beats up Male Lead 2.
The female lead calls the police and sends both Male Lead 1 and 2 to the police station! Male Lead 1 begs the female lead not to break up with him.
3. Male Lead 1 has a gentle appearance but an obsessive personality.
Male Lead 2 has a delicate and soft appearance, slightly green tea-like (two-faced).
Male Lead 3 is a youthful college student and a smart person who has secretly liked the female lead for a long time.
Male Lead 4 is the female lead’s father’s special assistant, a business elite with deep, hidden thoughts.
4. At the beginning of this novel, the female lead has already broken up with Male Lead 1 (Chapter 4) and gotten back together with Male Lead 2 (ex-boyfriend).
5. Enter with caution if you have triggers!!!
