After sending the message and checking the time, another one quickly arrived.
[Oh. It’s too late. Contact me tomorrow.]However, Taeseok didn’t hesitate and pressed the call button. The other person answered the phone with a slightly surprised voice.
[Haven’t you slept?]“The shoot ended late. Speak.”
In frustration, he lightly clenched his fist, feeling uneasy for no reason.
[Uh. I finished tracing the account. Shall I give you the main points easily? Or do you want to hear the complicated process?]“Just the main points.”
Impatience was evident in the response. K chuckled and began explaining.
[The person who transferred 500 million won to Choi Summer’s account is Jihyunjeong. And a week later, the money flowed overseas.]“Overseas?”
He remembered that Choi Summer had traveled to the United States.
“She probably withdrew it in dollars from the United States.”
[Uh. No, not really?]While typing on the keyboard, K continued.
[Not the United States at first, but China, then India. Anyway, that money went through several countries and came back into the country. The process is quite complicated.]K muttered a few words mixed with curses.
[Oh, damn. This process is so complicated and time-consuming. Most people would have given up midway. Because it took so much time, I painstakingly hacked everything to find it, not anyone else…….]“Hey. Just the main points.”
Taeseok cut in impatiently.
“Why did it get so complicated? Is it related to money laundering?”
When Taeseok asked, he opened his mouth again.
[Money laundering is not done this way.]Then he stopped typing on the keyboard and yawned.
[In the end, the money was deposited back into Jihyunjeong’s account. Originally, it means that Choi Summer never had that money.]Paper rustled in Taeseok’s mind.
[Um. The reason for taking a complicated route is not money laundering, and it’s just my guess, but it seems like an attempt to conceal the fact that the money was received again. Well, there’s no other explanation, right?]With the sound of rustling plastic, K continued the call.
All the remaining traces of sleep had escaped from Taeseok, and he wiped his face, asking in a low voice.
“Are you sure about that? It has to be certain.”
[Yeah. I triple-checked it so that I wouldn’t get cursed for making a mistake.]Two years ago, in the midst of a breakup and a tax audit, he was busy. During that time, he heard that Summer demanded a large sum of money. At first, he naturally didn’t believe it. Summer wasn’t a calculating woman who would take money to that extent.
But Jihyunjeong showed him the deposit statement. Showing a message that she received the money well.
Taeseok didn’t believe it but rather had to accept it with a feeling of resignation. And since that day, he took sleeping pills.
‘What the hell is all this…’
His stomach felt as if it were on fire. At the same time, his heart beat rapidly.
[Hey, Seo Taeseok. But why did you expect it to be withdrawn in the United States?]K took out snacks from the plastic bag, chewing loudly as he asked the question. Taeseok mechanically answered in a half-dazed state.
“Two years ago, Choi Summer went to the United States.”
K emptied his pockets.
[Hey. You’ve got it wrong. Choi Summer hasn’t left the country within the last 5 years. I’ve investigated that thoroughly.]
“What… what did you say?”
[Oh, seriously. Hey. What’s wrong with this snack? Potato chips are really a scam.]While K continued the distracted conversation, Taeseok didn’t hear anything. The lingering questions that had been on his mind, the unresolved mysteries. Why did she leave the country so urgently?
A fearful premonition, as if something could explain this inexplicable separation, rushed in like a burst dam.
[But who is Choi Summer, anyway?]At K’s question, he suddenly felt choked.
What should he say? About you.
An ex-girlfriend. Or a woman he still loves. Or maybe someone he met through work.
Setting aside the overwhelming thoughts that were flooding in, Taeseok briefly explained their relationship. K responded with a slightly surprised tone.
[So, Choi Summer was Je Su’s sister? I thought she might be a swindling employee or something. That’s why I dug up the records of her leaving the country.]“I’ve been thinking that Summer took the money until now, but if that’s not true, why in the world…”
[It’s obvious.]K cut him off.
[It’s just a well-thought-out design. For evidence, Jihyunjeong made an initial deposit and collected it, claiming that he sent money to Choi Summer. The problem is…]Taeseok swallowed a bitter breath.
[Anyway, to return the deposited money, you have to send it back yourself. So, how did Jihyunjeong manipulate Choi Summer to willingly return it? Only they know.]The long call came to an end. Taeseok couldn’t sleep.
Jihyunjeong.
He silently muttered that name, uncomfortable at the tip of his tongue.
Male lead first thought she played hard to get, only to realize she
really disliked him

At first he thought she was just using the trick of feigning indifference to attract his attention. Later, he learned that she truly despised him.
