The exclusive report on “Hasong Bio Director Ji Hyesu” by KN Newspaper dominated the news category of search sites in just a few minutes.
News with provocative titles based on the content of the first article continued to be uploaded without pause.
Unexpectedly, both Hasong Group and Play Round’s secretariat were frantically busy in the midst of this. Meanwhile, Hasong Group released a clarification article first.
[Hasong Group announced that it conducted an internal investigation into the situation at Hasong Bio and held an emergency shareholders’ meeting to dismiss Director Ji Hyesu. It is true that Udanwoo, the CEO of Play Round, is Ji Hyesu’s son, but reports implicating CEO Useonho are baseless, the statement said.]Play Round’s executive office.
On the screen, Donwoo’s gaze was fixed on the news report being played. Taeyoon, who was watching with him, had a serious expression.
[Hasong Group is said to hold Ji Hyesu responsible for the recent situation and is preparing for legal action. The whereabouts of Ji Hyesu and the identity of the collaborator known to have assisted her are currently unknown.]Donwoo spoke with a confident expression.
“They haven’t revealed your mother’s whereabouts, and they mentioned a collaborator. This implies that there might still be a desire to exchange information for your mother with the Eagles. …The probability is high that it was Lee Sujeong who reported, not Useonho.”
“Coincidentally, Lee Sujeong disappeared at the right time.”

Taeyoon touched the tablet and played a video. It showed a video of Sujeong, her brother Jeongho, and a scuffle in the underground parking lot.
“It was sent by the investigation agency that Lee Jeongho hired. He was lurking, expecting that Lee Sujeong might come.”
“Lee Sujeong?”
“She immediately got in her car and drove away. Her actions were mysterious. Since the request to find Lee Jeongho came from him, Lee Sujeong probably didn’t pay much attention.”
Taeyoon added that the team members who returned from the United States with her were searching for her car. Although it was an illegal route, there was no basis to request a police investigation.
For some reason, Donwoo felt strangely bitter.
‘My older brother used sponsorship as an excuse to bring her to various places.’
Thinking about the reports on Sujeong, who seemed to have become weary of life because of the family that was not like a family, Donwoo momentarily felt sorry for her.
“Being family is not an absolute excuse.”
Donwoo murmured softly and said to Taeyoon.

“Lee Jeongho, either prevent him from approaching Lee Sujeong, like putting him in a gambling den, or put him back in jail. Since Lee Sujeong, regardless of what happened, is a person with information we need, let’s protect her for now.”
“Understood.”
Sujeong, who had visited the library last time, didn’t seem anxious as if she were about to cause trouble. If her sudden change in mood was due to Jeongho, that could be prevented as well. If she could perfectly prove her mother’s innocence with the evidence she had, it was something Donwoo would do a hundred times over.
“Did we have the interview video ready from last time? Let’s broadcast that first and schedule a press conference as soon as possible. We need to preempt the broadcast.”
“We can’t publicly disclose the name of the hospital where my mother is. However, everyone will likely suspect it’s a hospital operated by Hasong Group. Still, it might make things difficult for my mother.”
In preparation for such a situation, Donwoo had planned to broadcast the interview video created in advance through the platform and cable broadcasting company that secured the exclusive broadcasting rights for the Eagles League.
To inform the public of the truth, it wasn’t necessary to rely solely on a credible central broadcasting station.
After a moment of silence, he spoke again.
“The public tends to have more confidence in frequently exposed information. We need to use that. U Seonho is blinded by the Eagles merger, so he can’t rashly do anything about my mother.”
To reveal U Seonho’s true nature, Donwoo had to disclose the fact that his mother was confined to the closed ward.
It was also necessary to do so to expose the fact that U Seonho was the mastermind behind Hasong Bio’s corruption.

An hour later, an emergency interview with Donwoo was broadcast on a news-specialized cable channel.
As an announcer asked about his birth, Donwoo’s face was close-up, and his answer was broadcast nationwide.
“I am indeed the illegitimate child of the Hasong family. Chairman U Suho, who has been unconscious due to a traffic accident ten years ago, is my father.”
Donwoo dully mentioned the fact that he and his mother were separated on the day of the fire.
“Hasong Bio’s corruption has nothing to do with my mother. Since that day, my mother has been confined to the closed ward without being on the patient list.”
Consistently, Donwoo asserted that there was no connection between Hasong Bio’s corruption and his mother, Director Ji Hyesu.

The demon lord’s eyes were red with fury:
“This is all your doing! Today, I won’t rest until I kill you!”
