by toujoursThis lesson was different from f495f28f45 all the tutoring she had d11df8e3fe done so far.4b74bb8ca692b594
She had agreed b46a22a74e to receive more a9c8e88fce than five times 32d1ebc373 her usual tutoring 77d6a8afd4 fee on the 5d4b16d888 condition that she b1b4b8b153 teach only one 439b23c683 student, six days 92f7f902c8 a week.df0a5079b4f88a45

This was possible thanks to Hyungwoo’s mother’s introduction. Due to her precarious position, Gyeoul initially declined, saying the fee was too high and burdensome.69eb12a7a0d8d14b
As the new year began, the cost of her medication increased, putting her in a difficult spot. Then, Hyungwoo’s mother contacted her again. She persuaded Gyeoul, saying that the fee wasn’t high considering the condition of teaching only one student six days a week. While a sense of unease lingered in her mind, the fact that she could earn more than before by teaching only one student, and that the student was a Beta, tempted her. Eventually, she pretended to be persuaded and accepted the offer.a5b481b47e1d7a6f

She knew it was a wealthy neighborhood when she received the address, but she hadn’t expected this level of affluence. When her identity was checked at the entrance of the alley, she had a sudden thought that she shouldn’t do this, but it was already too late.e339543c6809fe25
She climbed the short stairs and crossed the well-maintained garden. Her mouth went dry. Since she hadn’t been caught so far, she just needed to do what she always did, right? Once she did well on the next CSAT, she would change neighborhoods, stop illegal tutoring, and start tutoring legally. Gyeoul repeated this to herself as she entered the house.be44153b278696ce

The student she was supposed to tutor had attended middle school in Canada. He had returned to Korea for high school, but his parents were still in Canada, so a much older cousin was acting as his guardian. Therefore, this house probably belonged to the child’s cousin, the Vice President of some company. The probability of someone living in a house like this being an ordinary office worker was extremely low, but even so, a Vice President? The pressure from the title was considerable.715311b177ebbf41

Dominant Alphas were so few c8505f2688 in number that their very 6f984074e1 existence was a topic of e5ddbfbde8 interest wherever they went. Especially dominant Alphas 104e41bec3 from chaebol families 2c0b015450 or the entertainment b8e31692b8 industry received a 91c7202303 lot of attention, acd2919519 with countless posts e26c216904 online dedicated to f7fa5823bc them.

Chaebol families have a 3c49f973b9 particularly strong obsession with e68fc297e5 bloodlines. They have continued to pass 5f2f366d7b down their genes by repeatedly 534421f127 marrying high-ranking dominant Alphas or 81045726e2 Omegas.bc24b89642986f4c

From that perspective, Kwon Yihan 41f7c50b2e was a perfect creation. He was not 859b90a551 only a prominent 24db4be64b dominant Alpha born de86627ba9 with the proper 85c40de00f bloodline in a 3bef93eb53 chaebol family, but 687e1c8cff he also possessed 5685a829dd outstanding personal abilities. Starting his career at c921e6f6fd Seogwang Trading, a mandatory e1b4249257 step for Seogwang heirs, 8c43c7f35c he moved to the 3e7932b142 relatively weaker pharmaceutical division 0e9c840003 and, in just three 60fa3432f4 years, elevated it to 5971e75ff6 one of the top f9656c308f three pharmaceutical companies in 86536bb039 the country.5d36af41aec95465
Gyeoul had also 646781a7d4 been taking suppressants f51a13767c made by Seogwang f9f7c5564e until six months 5803e44968 ago, but she c4e05a8d7d switched to Juming 2513fa0f83 Pharmaceuticals’ product because 4828f33591 she needed a d8c77ff81c stronger suppressant.1be1d5676c357de8

The mere fact that Seogwang’s medicine carried the company’s brand guaranteed its effectiveness. As a leader in the pharmaceutical company’s beauty and cosmetics business, Seogwang Pharmaceuticals had much higher public recognition than Juming Pharmaceuticals.3caa5f1b057de06a
