However, while 434670baea Kwon Gu-yong f7c8561511 reminded her c93ca0203b of a 3078011c81 tattooed thug, 33936efb24 Kwon Ji-seop f7c0fe8572 radiated an 1bc5b3d2f3 elegant aura ce09a519d5 that made c3c0debec0 her question 60ee26e12e his ethnicity.42b614e303defc58

    Of course, b75bb11876 Hee-won knew 1335bb0cf4 that CEO 9152c9f08a Kwon Gu-yong 9a9addf40e was the 64932e14bd youngest son 4d797bd19f of Kwon 60d7787a5f Yeong-jin, the 531eab55ae chairman of 4d2f974249 DK Group. de8e8d7b547585ce

However, with 18bb0d2e37 every investment c14861f53d he made, 1f8d672cc6 he only 3f63d466c3 brought damage 66b288030a to the 4d842eea97 group, and 38a8a53e7c Hee-won had 59b70a49cd heard rumors cd932deebb that Kwon 38243d86e7 Gu-yong was 4495883383 a thorn a306fbc65a in the e65d92b051 side of 722014a804 the group.e295de8c3b2a842b
