Especially Jungmi frowned at Summer, who was looking at her as if she had made a promise, while taking a spoonful of rice and putting it in her mouth.
“You said you would give as much as a new recruit in this house? You said you were starving to death? Is that a new recruit? Is that the amount of food for someone starving to death?”
Unlike other family members, Summer’s meal was a high-class meal.
“Why, Summer’s food looks ridiculous.”
Kitaek praised.
“No, it’s like that. How can that be a new recruit? Has a ghost attached to her after starving to death?”
Once again, Summer, who put a large spoonful of rice in her mouth, spoke with her mouth full.
“This is a new recruit, right.”
“What?”
“Grandma would think it’s a small chick, right? But the bird I’m thinking of is a big condor that dominates the sky. This amount is right for a condor.”
“Are you saying you’re a condor?”
“Of course. A giant condor at that.”
Stunned, Jungmi made a snorting sound.
Anyway, Summer enjoyed her meal deliciously.
“Inpyo, Haeun.”
Suddenly, Juhwa called the two.
“Yes.”
They quickly put down their chopsticks and looked at each other.
“Even if it’s upsetting, bear with it for a while. Understand?”
The gloomy faces of the two quickly brightened.
The same was true for Jungmi and Sophia.
“And Manager Park, distribute these.”
“Yes, Chairman.”
It was a red envelope adorned with gold leaf.
Everyone in the family, except for Summer, received them.
Manager Park felt rather sorry.
“Nunim, what about Summer?”
With a puzzled expression, Kitaek asked.
“Why would I give her an allowance?”
Everyone, except Kitaek, looked at her as if she were an oddity.
With a piercing gaze, Juwha asked Summer.
“Are you feeling hurt by any chance?”
‘Blatantly discriminating and asking if I’m hurt? Seriously? What nonsense?’
Juwha snorted while making circles with her words.
“Still, endure it. Because I won’t give you an allowance. Besides, it’s my money, spoken outright. I have the freedom to spend it on the person I want. Right?”
“That’s right. Since it’s Chairman’s money, you should spend it on the person you want.”
“Thank you for understanding.”
She calmly replied and lifted her chopsticks.
“Silly child with childish Jjamppong.”
All eyes were awkwardly fixed on Summer.
“Deathly Sweet and Sour Pork, evil old lady.”
“What did you just say?”
Juwha’s forehead wrinkled.
“What? Oh, the silly child with childish Jjamppong? Or Deathly Sweet and Sour Pork, evil old lady?”
“Are you telling me to hear that right now?”
“No.”
“Are you sure you’re not?”
“No.”
“It’s definitely not!”
Juwha slammed the chopsticks onto the table.
The employees around froze in unison.
However, Summer spoke while putting a side dish in her mouth.
“Why are you so angry? It’s just muttering.”
“What?”
“It’s my mouth that said it. Can’t I speak with my mouth?”
Summer asked Juwha, who looked bewildered.
“Is Chairman feeling upset right now? If you have even a little bit of that, consider it the nonsense of a child and just endure it.”
Despite Juwha’s thoroughly wrinkled face, Summer casually ate her meal.
“How did that kid become so vulgar.”
Leaving the dining room, Jungmi complained irritably.
“Mom, that thing literally came out of a shed. It’s really unbearable to be in the same house.”
Haeun also expressed her discontent.
Sophia said.
“But I’m glad that Aunt didn’t actually demote Inpyo and the young lady. Look at the allowance; it’s more generous than before. It’s a way of letting us relax, right?”
“Just words.”
“I was worried, but now my mind is at ease.”
“Me too. Well, our brother has always favored our kids. And your father remains the representative director.”
“Mom. How about using this opportunity to ask Aunt Jungyeoreum to kick out Jung Summer here?”
“Right, Mom. I need to find my room quickly.”
“Should we try that?”
“Since Aunt is still before going to work, let’s go together and tell her.”
The eyes of the three women sparkled joyfully.
They headed to the room where Juwha lived.
Beside Juwha, who was getting ready for work in the dressing room, was Manager Park.
“Hey, Hyungnim.”
Jungmi called Juwha.
“Why?”
“How about kicking out Jung Summer from this house?”
In the full-length mirror, Juwha looked at Jungmi.
Under that sharp gaze, Jungmi involuntarily lowered her head.
Sophia, who was observing the situation, stepped forward.
“You saw it at the dining table earlier. The atmosphere in the house right now is unbearable because of Jung Summer.”
“Yes, Aunt.”
Juwha remained silent, merely putting on diamond earrings.
Jungmi, who was watching her reaction, spoke again.
“That kid loudly claims that if something happens to you in front of the employees, Blue House will be hers. She’s a troublesome and frightening child. It’s really embarrassing and uncomfortable. Chairman, why not get a separate, humble house for her? That way, Chairman can be more comfortable.”
Juwha said, “I don’t find it uncomfortable.”
“…What?”
“I actually find it amusing that she puts on such airs and endures.”
The unexpected answer left the three women bewildered.
In the meantime, Juwha glanced at her reflection in the mirror and then turned away.
“If you’ve said what you wanted, could you please leave my room now?”
“…Yes.”
Pushed by Juwha’s gaze, the three women turned around and left hesitantly.
“And.”
As if under a spell, the three women all stopped.
“If any of you enter my room without permission one more time, you’ll be the ones leaving this house.”
“…Yes?”
“I knew you wouldn’t understand. You’ve been snooping around in my room.”
The three women’s necks trembled with fear.
Especially Ha-eun felt a sense of crisis in this situation.
‘This is definitely…’
“I’m strict about protecting my privacy. I clearly warned you. If you don’t want to be kicked out and face a lawsuit later, don’t touch my belongings. Got it? I do things my way.”
With a chilling gaze, she glared at Ha-eun, who stood frozen, and scolded, “Leave.”
“…Yes.”
Under Juwha’s stern eyes, the three women hurriedly bowed and left.
“Her privacy protection is strict, yet she’s taking over Summer’s entire life?”
Manager Park commented to Juwha.
“In other words, why are you in such a state because you don’t have money?”
“…Chairman.”
“Kim Sejin is probably feeling it painfully right now. The money that wasn’t so important, as you claimed, now that it’s gone, I wonder what kind of situation your husband and daughter are in.”
“Chairman, are you really such a bad mother-in-law and grandmother? You said it a little while ago. Do you, who knows the current situation better than anyone, give allowances to the representative’s family? And even leave out Summer.”
“It’s my heart.”
Park Housekeeper said, “Really pathetic.”
“I’ve always been pathetic. Didn’t you know?”
Dismissing Park Housekeeper’s straightforward words lightly, Juwha went outside.
Although Park Housekeeper made unpleasant remarks, she followed behind.
“Please be careful.”
“Sure.”
Juwha sat in the back seat of the parked sedan.
The car quickly passed through the main gate.
At that moment, Summer was seen running energetically ahead.
Driver Park cautiously asked through the rearview mirror, “Excuse me, Chairman.”
“Why?”
“It’s on the way, how about giving Miss Summer a ride? The bus stop isn’t too far, is it?”
“Never mind.”
The refusal was swift.
Unavoidably, Driver Park ran past Summer.
Juwha glanced at the side mirror.
Summer raised her fist.
On top of that, her lips were spitting out words, and somehow, you could tell she was expressing her anger.
“If you give me a ride on the way, what’s the big deal! You filthy old hag with a bad temper!”
Juwha stared blankly out of the car window.
‘The bird that Granny imagines must be a small chick, right? But the bird I imagine is a huge condor that dominates the sky. This amount suits a condor, right?’
‘Are you saying you’re a condor?’
“Of course. A king-sized condor, too.”
Juwha, who was smiling sardonically, murmured, “King-sized condor…”
