Seol Jio headed toward a busy main road to catch a taxi and called Seo Hyejeong.
The dial tone stopped, and Seo Hyejeong answered the phone.
“What on earth is this? I asked you to prevent the scandal. When did I ask you to make a scandal with you?”
[Sorry. It seems like my brother is targeting me. I really didn’t know.]Seol Jio pondered over this. Did Sehwa Group’s eldest son deliberately create a scandal to tarnish Seo Hyejeong’s image?
Instantly, anger surged within him.
Why do I have to be a sacrificial lamb in their fight?
Entering the taxi that had stopped in front of him, Seol Jio spoke coldly to Seo Hyejeong.
“Handle it immediately, deny everything. We need to handle it properly this time.”
Throughout the ride to the company, he felt uneasy. He was also bothered by Yeorun, who he had left behind.
“Damn it.”
Swear words escaped involuntarily, intensifying the already tense atmosphere.
Trying to stop Seo Hye-ri resulted in creating a scandal with Seo Hyejeong.
“……”
Seol Jio covered his face with both hands. His head throbbed.
A while ago, the call from Ju Seok-yeong, received during the after-party, was like a thunderbolt.
A scandal with Vice President Seo.
Even Ju Seok-yeong seemed bewildered. He had just heard that Seol Jio was going to meet Yeorun, and suddenly, a picture of him in a hotel with another woman appeared.
Of course, the picture was fabricated. It was just two separate photos of him and Seo Hyejeong leaving the same hotel room.
Since their goal was to create gossip about Seo Hyejeong, even with such a shoddy picture, they could fabricate a dating rumor.
And it was quite sensational.
Seol Jio found himself unjustly caught up in this situation.
As he recalled the picture, Seol Jio had a thought that flashed through his mind, prompting him to call Ju Seok-yeong.
[Hey, Jio.]It was a voice filled with fatigue.
Pausing briefly in his apology, Seol Jio said, “Hyung, I’m sorry.”
At his unexpected apology, Ju Seok-yeong chuckled lightly.
[Are you really sorry? The guy who never caused any trouble until now is causing scandals for the second time this year? You can’t make it a third time, okay? You became a world star and now turning into a world troublemaker. I can’t stand it.]Seol Jio laughed lightly at Ju Seok-yeong’s banter. Despite his own difficulties, he was thankful for Ju Seok-yeong’s easygoing attitude.
After a moment of bitter laughter, Seol Jio brought up the main topic.
“Hyung, can you check the CCTV in the hotel corridor I went to?”
[CCTV? Why?]“I only stayed in that room for about 5 minutes. The CCTV should have recorded the time.”
[Oh, okay. If we use that as evidence, we can counter the articles. But why did you spread the dating rumor so recklessly? Loud but empty.]“That was the purpose. It won’t die down easily. It’s perfect for tearing apart a conglomerate and a top star. Just handle it firmly.”
Seol Jio leaned his head against the car seat, pressing his forehead with the back of his hand. The alcohol he had consumed at the after-party seemed to be circulating through his veins.
Closed eyes brought up Yeorun’s face.
In reality, whether it was a dating rumor or anything else, the most important thing to him was Yeorun.
He regretted it.
He had rushed out thinking he needed to resolve the situation somehow, but now he realized he shouldn’t have come to the company right away.
He should have stayed by Yeorun’s side. How anxious she must be right now…
Moreover, the thought of Min Jiwook being with her made his mood plummet.
“…What a mess.”
Seol Jio washed his face quickly and opened his phone.
Should he have gone straight to Yeorun’s house?
As he opened the call log to find Yeorun’s name, a call came in.
‘Seo Hyejeong Executive Director.’
It was an unwanted call. Right now, more than anyone else, he wanted to hear Yeorun’s voice.
With an unwilling hand, Seol Jio pressed the call button.
“Yes.”
[Mr. Seol Jio, where are you?]“Yes?”
Why would she be curious about where I am?
“What’s going on…”
[Hyeri has run away. We’re currently looking for her, so Mr. Seol Jio, please go to a safe place if possible.]“What are you saying?”
Annoyance set in. What kind of work were they doing? Couldn’t they properly monitor even one younger sibling and let her run away?
Now, there was even suspicion about the abilities of Executive Director Seo. Then, a slightly urgent voice came through the receiver.
“Don’t listen carelessly and go to a safe place. Hyeri is not in the right state of mind now.”
“What are you talking about?”
Seo Hyejeong hesitated for a moment, then spoke truthfully.
“She stabbed a bodyguard with a weapon and ran away. That’s the situation right now. She’s holding a knife.”
…What?
Seol Jio was speechless for a moment. Goosebumps ran over his entire body as soon as he heard the word ‘knife.’
The sister who had been trapped at home for stalking him had stabbed a bodyguard and run away?

“Don’t worry, I will definitely defend your chastity.” Yan Jin looked at the flawless and delicate features of the unfortunate junior and gently comforted, “Because we have transmigrated into a female-dominant world.”

Top celebrity Yu Shu suddenly fell into a coma during a concert.
Research scientist Yan Jin fainted in the lab after working overtime.
Two people with no connection were rushed to the same hospital.
Three days later, neither of them had woken up.
Suddenly, the entire nation discovered that a live streaming app had been forcibly installed on their phones.
Upon opening it, they heard the two discussing how to escape from the brothel.
The entire internet was in an uproar.
After the two successfully escaped from the brothel, Yu Shu’s fan group rushed to make a banner and sent it to the hospital overnight.
“Big sister bravely took action to defend the chastity of our idol!”

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
[Although it’s inappropriate, I also want a young and handsome boyfriend to have my child.]
①Male pregnancy (highlighted)
The female lead is five years older than the male lead, and the male lead is already an adult when he appears.
