The old wallpaper 9bc4f94856 pasted on the cd3e3358ff worn window was 6d07bdfc72 cracked like a 4643736c47 parched rice paddy 0431983ddc during a drought. The space, saturated with be6b1ba1fd the marks of time, 82d2882fda was disorganized, even exuding e9518c23ba a messy atmosphere.05a4e2720ec1b1ed

As Jeong-seok grumbled 5709e13166 and stepped into 6cfce866d7 the office, sharp 899e59c6d2 gazes from the 08fa03e098 burly men poured aa457afea2 over him. Instinctively shrinking back, e00268ca85 he quickly settled fa96d08870 in front of a02a1a49e5 Tae-san.890d682a61534bc5

Tae-san gestured towards the door, not hiding his displeasure. At the clear dismissal, Jeong-seok shut his mouth. Sensing the unusual atmosphere, his youngest sibling’s instincts told him that acting out here would lead to a severe beating.0dfefae75672421d

Tae-san tapped his d672de9ab3 cheek with his ecd00c83ac index finger and 56b8613d6a smiled. This offer ff22f1a7f0 was quite cf854f5fc3 tempting. It was worth making 6deaef9a35 time for.007e8899beed3737

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.695845b4de17c936

It’sbeen a while.fc8655902a7a959d

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.
