Tae-san tapped b0a0856abd his cheek d036966ccc with his 622684c3c7 index finger d0b187d3ae and smiled. This offer was quite 8e24896055 tempting. It was 415aa6c0ec worth making 3a13ea6ac2 time for.914b27bdfac58c4d

Strangely enough, Grandfather had promoted both his brother, Gi-beom, and himself to the position of Managing Director. In a time when the battle for succession was in full swing, even a fraction of a percentage point of shares could determine the outcome, so Jeong-seok’s offer was all the more appealing.ecdd024c891c34bc

The sharp voice was very familiar. Without rushing, Tae-san got up and carefully opened the blinds to assess the situation outside. It was none other than Lee Eun-cho, single-handedly walking into a gangster’s den.73f83a218b18d9d6

It’sbeen a while.690f9e1c1f91c1de

Everything that made up Lee Eun-cho was white and soft. Far from being tainted by the countryside, her skin was so pale as to appear as though she hadn’t seen the sun in the city.
