Younger Man at Work (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 71

“I’ll send her over soon, so treat her well—with care. Just like you treated that woman, lavishly.”

Ae Rin was dragged away, her mouth covered, while Hong Director, who had been standing beside Yeon Hwa, spoke up, worry evident in his voice.

“Madam, truly, this is the last time.”

Hong Director had formerly been Yeon Hwa’s chief secretary and now served as the chief administrator of Dae Won Welfare Foundation, where Yeon Hwa was chairperson. Privately, he was Yeon Hwa’s fifth-cousin older brother and had been her closest aide since the days when she was merely Chairman Kwon’s mistress.
