Young Suk’s eyes widened.
“Excuse me? The, the director wants to see me?”
“Yes, that’s correct.”
The secretary said, coming forward to open the door to the director’s office for her.
“Ththank you.”
Had she heard the noise of the commotion?
Though it was a crude method, it had worked, which was fortunate.
Even if she ended up withdrawing in the end, she was curious to see just how remarkable this woman was and wanted to see the director’s face at least once.
Nervously, Young Suk roughly straightened her disheveled clothes, brushed her hair a few times, and walked towards the director’s office. Her heart pounded rapidly at the sudden meeting.
She was finally going to see that dignified face. This was her last chance to convince her not to withdraw, no matter what.
As Young Suk strode through the door the secretary had opened, the secretary and security guards followed her in and closed the door. Young Suk looked around for the director’s seat.
Just who was this woman?
Then, her eyes met with a woman sitting in front of a large desk, exuding a sophisticated aura. Instantly, Young Suk reflexively opened her mouth to offer a polite greeting.

“Hello….”
It took only a few seconds. That’s how long it took for her to realize that the woman’s face was all too familiar.
She couldn’t believe it because the person was too unexpected. She was stunned, wondering if it was really the person she knew.
Perhaps it was someone who looked strikingly similar, but she couldn’t afford to make a mistake, so she lowered her gaze to the nameplate.
[Director Luna Lee]Luna Lee. The surname was the same, but the name wasn’t Hyun Seo, and no matter how much she looked at the face, it was definitely Hyun Seo’s.
As if she was possessed, she was in a state of shock, when the director opened her mouth.
“Hello, Member Han Young Suk.”
Young Suk’s eyes widened even more. It couldn’t possibly be the same voice. It was indeed Hyun Seo!
“You, you!”
“You wanted to meet me?”
She asked calmly, but the fact that she hadn’t anticipated Young Suk’s reaction confirmed it was definitely Hyun Seo.
“Why are you sitting there?”
Young Suk fumbled, as if she had been hit hard in the back of her head. Looking at her, Hyun Seo wore a faint smile.
“I am the director of Songhwagung, Luna Lee.”
Young Suk’s mouth opened wide involuntarily.

“What? You, you?”
She couldn’t believe what she was hearing. She couldn’t fathom why Hyun Seo was sitting in the director’s seat, let alone believe what she was saying.
“I can’t believe you’re joking around like this after such a long time. You should make a joke that makes sense. Where’s the director…? I’m in a hurry, I need to see the director first.”
Young Suk looked around unnecessarily. The secretary standing next to her was also surprised, not understanding the situation. The embarrassed secretary whispered to Young Suk.
“Member, I’m sorry to inform you, but she is indeed Director Luna Lee.”
Young Suk turned her head sharply to look at the secretary who had spoken.
“…Excuse me?”
Then she looked at Hyun Seo’s face once again. Hyun Seo, with her cool expression, asked her.
“What did you want to discuss?”
“……”
Young Suk felt as though she was dreaming.
“You’re really the director of Songhwagung? How?”
“Member, I… don’t have much time. As you know, this was an unscheduled meeting.”
“Huh, huh!”
Young Suk let out a hollow laugh. It was truly a strange situation.
“You! My goodness! You’ve made a name for yourself? My, when did you become so successful?”
Young Suk quickly changed her tune.
“They say you can’t predict people’s fortunes, how did this happen?”
“I don’t have time for small talk right now. I would appreciate it if you could tell me what you wanted to discuss.”
“No, wait! Aside from that! Why didn’t you contact us even once when you were doing so well?”
“Did that upset you?”
“Ah, well, not that.”
Young Suk was at a loss for words.

“Well, anyway. We’ll have plenty of opportunities to catch up since we’ve met like this. Right now, you’re busy, so I should probably discuss the business… first?”
It was incredibly awkward and surprising, but knowing that the director of Songhwagung, whom she had been so worried about, was her former daughterinlaw, she felt she was in a better position than dealing with a total stranger.
She had always been a good kid, so surely things would work out somehow.
Wait, but that meant! What the?
“So, you’re the one who expelled me?”
“Well, yes, I did make the final decision.”
Thinking of that, Young Suk was momentarily hot with anger and her eyes twitched, but she spoke in a mollified voice.
“Ah… I see. Well, you have your position as the operator, so you must have had no other choice.”
“I’m glad you understand.”
“Huh… Well, okay. In a way, I should be grateful you didn’t contact the police. That was probably because you’re the director and you were looking out for me.”
“That’s right.”
“If you were the director from the start, you should have told me directly. I had to argue unnecessarily with the staff.”

really disliked him
