While Tae-seok shook his head, Summer quickly brought out coffee. As those gathered in the living room exchanged puzzled looks, K spoke quietly.

“You didn’t tell Summer it was a secret?”

Tae-seok organized it.

“I lost. Summer knows everything now.”

“Oh, amazing.”

K laughed heartily.

“I thought Summer should have known a long time ago! Nice to meet you, Ms. Summer.”

“I’ve heard a lot about you.”

After exchanging greetings with K, Summer glanced at Reporter Oh once again.

Seo Tae-seok, Hong Min-woo, Lawyer Moon Sung-hoon, Reporter Oh Hyun-sik, and K.

“The best people in their respective fields have gathered. Lawyer Moon Sung-hoon, I didn’t know much about the legal profession, so I searched, and your track record in corporate law is impressive. I admire you.”

“You’re exaggerating.”

He replied modestly.
“It’s not just about the retainer fee. I have personal resentment against Ji Hyeon-jeong. My younger sibling signed a contract with HJ Planning, trained as a trainee, but couldn’t debut and was kicked out. It was a very serious unfair contract.”

“Ah, that happened.”

“Now that I’m a lawyer, I won’t be subject to such things, but back then, I was just a student, so there was nothing I could do. Honestly, I feel good to be able to help even in this way.”

He laughed briefly. K cheered, raising his thumb.

Tae-seok confessed everything to Summer yesterday. Not only the video that Summer was curious about but also the future plans and the people involved in these plans. As if that wasn’t enough, he even included Summer in the meeting.

Tae-seok disliked things being in-between. Summer not knowing was the best situation, but now that she knew, there was no need to be vague. Summer was now an official member.

“Fraud doesn’t stand. Ji Hyeon-jeong hasn’t gained any financial benefit.”

Moon Sung-hoon explained in a businesslike manner, handing over documents.

“Coercion is possible, but… the penalty is very low. Imprisonment for less than 3 years. Ji Hyeon-jeong will hire a top-notch lawyer, so coercion will probably end with a fine.”

Tae-seok put on a stern expression.

Everyone felt the desire to repay what Summer had suffered, but the legal fence was too fragile and light. Everyone shared Tae-seok’s thoughts.

“Let’s read the article at this point. It’s almost 90% complete.”

Oh Hyun-sik displayed a file in the group room.

It was a somewhat long and detailed article titled “This Is It.” There were still gaps here and there. It seemed like they wanted to add more evidence, but it didn’t seem readily available.

Other than that, it was a flawless article, utilizing CCTV footage, photos, and audio files to expose everything about Ji Hyeon-jeong. K applauded.

“Actress Jung In-ah said what CEO Shin Min-cheol mentioned. If this actress can testify, the credibility of the article will be much better. We can complete it without her, but it’s a bit disappointing.”

Tae-seok nodded.

“Summer. If it’s okay, can I meet Jung In-ah?”

“I’m okay.”

Summer didn’t seem to mind.

‘Oh, what’s all this.’

It shouldn’t be embraced with such malicious thoughts, but witnessing such thoroughly prepared revenge filled him with an indescribable joy. It was a feeling so satisfying that it made his own humanity shameful.

Ji Hyeon-jeong is finally getting what she deserves.

Not only did she use a breakup but also manipulated various conspiracies, framing herself and hurling insults until recently. Thinking about the long, dark period sent shivers down his spine again.

So, maybe… it’s okay to be a little happy?

It was difficult to control his expression since finding joy in others’ misfortune wasn’t quite pleasant. While Tae-seok gazed at Summer with such thoughts, he held her hand.

“It’s okay, Summer. Whatever it is.”

Tae-seok was firm. Summer was overwhelmed by him. However, K played around.

“Kiss! Kiss! Should we give them some space?”

Blushing, Summer quickly changed the subject.
“No! I have something more important to discuss. It’s about the video!”

The words that had been bothering her mind just popped out.

With various revenge methods in mind, in the end, it seemed like the video would be a stumbling block for Tae-seok. The expressions of everyone became a bit cloudy.

“There’s still no clear solution. Since we have a copy, it’s impossible to erase all the videos.”

Moon Sung-hoon said.

Summer now knew the identity of that video, but knowing didn’t change anything.

“Maybe Ji Hyeon-jeong won’t just discard it. Because she loves Seo Tae-seok…”

Summer argued in a small voice, but her voice gradually faded as she spoke. Even though they could understand the sentiment behind her words, no one sympathized.

K openly mocked.

“That woman? Doesn’t she realize even after being deceived? I could tell just by watching the CCTV.”

Tae-seok growled.

“Don’t rub it in.”

At that moment, a thought suddenly popped into Summer’s mind. Like a beam of light, the idea struck her brain and poured out quickly through her mouth.

“Oh! How about this?”

“What is it?”

“What surprised me when I watched that video was because of its realism and rarity. It was incredibly realistic and also because I had never seen such a video before. I kept searching online, but it really didn’t exist anywhere. Since there’s only one, it felt like a hidden truth.”

“Hmm, yes.”

Oh Hyun-sik found it interesting.

“How about we break the rarity of that video? Since we can’t erase the video, let’s spread it everywhere instead. Create gifs or memes, make it a bit humorous. Emphasize the evil deeds of a stunt double who looks like Seo Tae-seok. Of course, after removing the victim woman, let’s only share the ones with the man.”

The audience was too quiet.

Ah, could this be wrong? Did it really fail?

Summer let out an awkward laugh.
