It was a proposal so shocking that it could be described as nothing less than radical.
Dojun didn’t even bother asking Youngjae how much incentive he had agreed to receive. His reckless confidence was even making him feel awkward.
“Isn’t this a bit too impulsive?”
“It might be less impulsive than being manipulated by money.”
Dojun’s profession revolved around handling money. He understood the ecology of money better than anyone else and had witnessed the nature of human beings, who laughed and cried with money, countless times.
Considering this, he couldn’t be unaware of how to use money to influence people. Perhaps he thought that, in this regard, he was more shrewd with money than Chairman Yu himself.
“Why are you going to such lengths?”
“Don’t make things uncomfortable for Haewon.”
“…!”
“Obstructing and helping are two entirely different things.”
“I also have commitments; there’s nothing I can do.”
“Doing this might not be helpful for your career. Isn’t that so?”
“What do you mean by saying that?”
“I mean, it would be better if Haewon didn’t have any unpleasant memories related to you.”
Dojun’s words were not entirely wrong. No matter how well-respected a manager was, once a negative rumor spread, it could be problematic.
Haewon was currently pregnant, and stability was more critical than ever. After giving birth, she would inevitably need a period of rest. Being burdened with the title of a global star was only adding pressure.
Youngjae couldn’t offer a substantial response. Even in a relatively good position as a manager, enduring constant disrespect all day long was damaging to his self-esteem.
“I understand what you mean.”
“It’s better not to deal with Han Jintae from the beginning.”
“…?”
“If I’m crazy, that guy is a scoundrel.”
“…!”
“If you don’t believe me, find out for yourself. Now would be a good time.”
Dojun’s piercing gaze in the bright sunlight struck Youngjae sharply.
After a moment of silence, Dojun uttered in a languid voice.
“Get lost.”
Various emotions flooded Youngjae’s face.
As he revealed his complicated feelings, Dojun turned away and added one more statement.
“Misusing money can lead to ruin. Consider the proposal I made.”
Dojun walked into the studio.
As his solid figure moved away beyond the glass, Youngjae turned his steps.
He barely managed to grasp his recently clouded judgment. Considering how he forcefully left a comfortable position due to Han Jintae’s temptation, money was indeed terrifying.
“I’ve done something crazy.”
He instructed Park Gun to drive him to GN Entertainment. He left the car key at the security office, which the manager team leader had handed over before being fired.
Once he regained his composure, he felt regret.
After a short call to Han Jintae, who was on his way to GN Entertainment, the phone call was made.
When Jinhwan received Haewon’s call, he felt a throbbing headache from the stress.
Chairman Yu’s stubbornness, which dictated that he would do as he pleased, even if he had to squeeze people, had tormented him. Jinhwan headed to GN headquarters.
He intentionally didn’t contact them and entered through the first-floor gate.
“Have you arrived?”
Recognizing him, some of the security guards and employees bowed their heads.
In the vast space composed of three buildings, Jinhwan paused for a moment.
“Is Chairman in the office?”
“Yes, Director Han Jintae called….”
“Don’t make the call.”
The security guard who had been holding the phone bowed.
Jinhwan passed through the executive elevator, past sculptures hanging from the high ceiling, to reach the top floor.
Looking at himself in the mirror, he arrived at the top floor while adjusting his tie and shirt collar.
Walking down the corridor and stopping, he found the office where Han Jintae was.
He had to pass through here to meet Chairman Yu.
After a casual knock, he opened the door.
Upon doing so, Han Jintae and two employees stood up to greet him.
“Director, what’s the matter without any notice?”
“I’ve come to see Father. Is he inside?”
“I can go and tell him….”
“Leave it.”
Jinhwan couldn’t tolerate Han Jintae’s arrogance any longer.
Suppressing him from crossing the line by trusting only Chairman Yu, Jinhwan pretended to knock on the office door.
“Father.”
“What are you doing at this hour?”
“Please spare me some time.”
“Come in.”
To prevent Han Jintae from entering, Jinhwan locked the door.
Having entered, Jinhwan sat facing Chairman Yu.
“Father, do you know what Director Han Jintae is doing behind your back?”
“He’s just a guy who does a little scheming; leave him be.”
“He might ruin everything, even in front of you.”
Even with Jinhwan’s earnest advice, Chairman Yu only chuckled.
He lifted his wrinkled eyelids, revealing stubbornness.
“You’re still naive.”
“The world has changed.”
“People haven’t changed, though. What’s the use of just changing the shell?”
Chairman Yu was self-assured.

Short scene 2:

Before he could speak, Feng Bai Su suddenly bent down and bit his cheek.
