by AnonAnemoneTaeKyung woke up in 8794e9df41 a haze of pain.c92996791a2ca655
Sunlight crept into the room from between the curtains. An unfamiliar ceiling, the clearly visible packages of syringes. He could smell a sweet aroma wafting in from somewhere. When he smelled that familiar scent, he cried out his sister’s name. What happened?9b59e95d765fa0ee

He had been caught by President Min. He recalled being beaten, torn, and left to suffer until he almost died. Even though it didn’t seem like it would end, he tried to hang on with all his might. However, WooKyung-ahjussi couldn’t do it. It was unbearable watching WooKyung-ahjussi crumble and collapse before his very eyes.81d74bbbbfb5daaa
In the end, TaeKyung had given up the account in Luxembourg to save WooKyung’s life, but President Min didn’t hesitate to kill him anyway.0c25098f139fb877

Son of a bitch. TaeKyung was going to kill him. It was no longer enough to just bring him to his knees. If it wasn’t for Yuan holding him back , he would have already killed Min DaeYup by now.9bd467c26733f93d

At his words, Yuan looked disappointed. They were finally able to properly talk after a year of being unable to, but the first thing he did was scold her. TaeKyung also didn’t like it, but he couldn’t help it. 2d700ef6c77b86b4

Yuan’s answer was short. TaeKyung narrowed his eyes as he looked at his sister. His sister was avoiding his eyes.

Yuan’s face paled. As he watched his sister’s face harden, TaeKyung suddenly felt a sharp pain go through his body. He didn’t want any help from someone like Seo JoonHun.

28 years ago, thanks to the merger, the company had managed to rake in a lot of investors. However, its performance couldn’t be considered top-tier. Actually, they strangely suffered many losses in the beginning. After that, they absorbed a sturdy, smaller business called M&A.50ceb4f27b81a5ca
The companies that President Min invested in would temporarily run into all sorts of problems, causing their stock prices to plummet. With their backs against the wall, these companies would then be reluctantly absorbed into R&K under the pretext of an investment.622e2ef126344994
