Chapter Index

    Photos taken over time.

    What would happen if I took this to people and showed it to them?

    That was obvious without even having to check.

    At least everyone will shout with their mouths together.

    I did it, I did it.

    I don’t know what I did inside, but I did it anyway.

    To that extent… it was quite a strong feeling.

    Even so, in the end, it’s just a rumor and there’s no concrete evidence at all, right?

    That was just the logic of a powerless person.

    If you have power, it doesn’t matter whether what you’re holding in your hand is a symbol or a physical evidence.

    It’s just that the person’s intention is important.

    And what about the position of chairman of Sacheon Group?

    It was a position where it was possible not only to threaten a person with a single thought, but also to create evidence that did not exist.

    But is there any reason not to be suspicious of a guy who can clearly see that his back is messed up?

    Did such an accident have an impact?

    He might have seemed a little bit pricked by his conscience at the fact that he had betrayed his prospective son-in-law, but no such expression was found on the faces of the party members in front of the party office.

    Instead of being tormented by his conscience, he just looks like he’s asking what to do now.

    Of course… that was only the position of the party, and the party office did not sit still.

    “Are you following us now?”

    From the moment I landed in this city, I was somewhat prepared.

    I was prepared for something like this, but I never thought it would happen so quickly.

    So I had no choice but to admit it.

    So… that I underestimated the person called my father.

    Even so, I never thought they would put surveillance on me right away like this.

    I felt a feeling of regret creeping up from deep in my heart, and I lifted my slightly disheveled bangs with my hand.

    It was in the midst of this that my father’s voice continued.

    “You said that to Soa earlier.”

    “···.”

    “Choosing a groom is your right according to family tradition.”

    Sure… I did say that.

    I never dreamed that that statement would hit me like this.

    “If that is your right, then this is my right. It is a right and a duty.”

    “Watching your daughter?”

    “No, protecting and reviving the party family. And to do that, prevent foreign substances from entering the family.”

    A cold and firm voice.

    No matter how many times I heard it, a voice I couldn’t get used to weighed heavily on my shoulders.

    “Break up before you get involved further.”

    “···I don’t like it.”

    “Are you still stubborn even after seeing this?”

    “A deep-seated mind is just a deep-seated person, and there is no evidence anywhere that this person is really a liaison for another force, right?”

    Although she was momentarily shocked and accepted it right away, it wasn’t like she hadn’t thought about that possibility.

    To be honest, I couldn’t help it… Even if you think about cancer, Su-hyeon had more than one or two suspicious corners.

    Despite being practically a ronin, he had a suspiciously deep level of inner strength, and the fact that he was able to use martial arts and magic together without any hesitation was the same… and so were the ‘samples’ he brought in for research this time.

    So, she was a little suspicious of Su-hyeon… but why did she still feel so moved?

    Is it because we’ve spent so much time together that we’ve grown to hate each other?

    Or… is it because she regrets the benefits that Yoon Soo-hyun could give her, regardless of the suspiciousness?

    I couldn’t figure it out.

    I didn’t know why I felt this way, but what was certain was that I didn’t want to do as my father said.

    Thanks to this, my eyes reflexively gained strength.

    Did my father feel the same way?

    “So? Are you planning on going and asking? What did you do while I was away?”

    “There’s nothing you can’t do.”

    “···Good. Then, let’s see if I can hear it. I wonder what that guy will say.”

    “Yes…?”

    As I was inwardly embarrassed by the unexpected remark, my father spoke to the display built into the desk.

    “Contact the head of the party.”

    -Yes, Chairman, did you find it?

    “That guy I mentioned earlier, is he still looking for a location?”

    ㅡYes.

    “Then bring it to me as soon as you get out of there.”

    Dangdeung, who was confident in his heart that this photo would be enough to get this guy, who was an unknown and lecherous guy from nowhere, away from his precious youngest daughter, was a little taken aback by his daughter’s reaction.

    The moment I saw the photo, I thought I would be angry at the betrayal of the man I trusted, but I never dreamed I would rebel in this way.

    From his perspective, it was well deserved… because his daughter, Soso, was a very bright child from a young age.

    So, I thought that if I just made a suitable excuse, they would get rid of it on their own… but I never thought they would actually try to protect that bastard.

    Does this mean that my feelings for him are that deep?

    ···No, that can’t be possible.

    Although she became faceless after ‘that incident’, she was a child who had clear eyes for men since she was small, to the point where she always said that she would marry her father when she grew up.

    There was no way he didn’t know that the kid who was like that was an empty Gangjeong.

    Nevertheless, being stubborn like that… is probably an expression of rebellion rather than because you actually have deep feelings for that guy.

    If that’s the case, there’s nothing we can do.

    The shock my daughter will feel may be quite big, but I can only teach her that this is reality.

    Needless to say, it was for that purpose that I immediately contacted the secretary’s office and ordered that someone who was Yoon Soo-hyun or something be brought here as soon as he got out of the building.

    How long has it been since I gave instructions directly to the Chief Secretary?

    A message from the manager that the target had been secured came through the display built into the desk.

    Thanks to that, I was able to see the end if I waited just a little longer.

    ‘ruler···.’

    Just try to arrive.

    Let me clearly show you how pathetic and untrustworthy it is to have a man other than your family.

    Party, etc.

    I am 55 years old this year.

    He was still at an age where he was hungry for his youngest daughter’s cuteness and affection.

    ‘This is so…’

    I feel like I’m meeting a lot of suit people today.

    No, even if that’s the case, this guy is really from the Sacheon Group, right?

    Could it be that I’m being lured into a strange place again?

    Just in case, before I got in the car, I asked if the person who wanted to meet me had the last name ‘Dang’ and heard the answer, but it seems that Sacheondanga is not the only person in the world with the name Dang.

    No matter how large China is, that can’t be possible.

    Well… it’s been a long time since the land that was so large was ravaged by radioactivity due to the effects of nuclear war.

    While I was thinking these thoughts, the large limousine driving with me inside entered the underground parking lot of a certain building.

    It literally happened in an instant.

    But I saw it.

    This is the sight of the ‘SC’ logo engraved on the wall of the building that houses the underground parking lot that I am currently in.

    ‘I guess he’s from that party.’

    So, is this building the headquarters of Sacheon Pharmaceutical?

    There was a high possibility of that happening.

    Even though Sacheon Group is a world-renowned megacorp, it is unlikely that it would be using such a large building as an affiliate building in this era when clean land is extremely precious.

    Also… if it was an affiliated building, wouldn’t there have been additional things like construction in addition to the SC?

    And if this was indeed the headquarters of Sacheon Pharmaceutical, which can be said to be the Sacheon Group itself, the identity of the person who invited me here, even accompanying him in a limousine, was obvious.

    ‘Dangdeung’, the current chairman of Sacheon Group and the owner of this year’s Dangga.

    I’m sure he called me here.

    ‘This is so…’

    Even if the guy called Mo Yong-cheol or whatever Yong-cheol hadn’t mistaken the person who sent him for someone from the party, there wouldn’t have been a reason to be this nervous.

    I really didn’t care about betrayal, but maybe it was because I couldn’t be honest about the situation.

    As I got on the elevator and got closer to the top floor, where the president’s office seemed to be, my heart started pounding.

    Thanks to this, the excellent performance of the elevator felt a little bit harsh.

    If I had gone a little slower, I would have been able to calm my nerves…

    It’s unfortunate, but what can you do?

    Since it’s come to this, the only thing I can do is face it.

    ‘Still, he is the one who promised to marry my daughter. Do I really have to kill him…?’

    So it will be okay.

    It must have been the moment when I entered what was presumed to be the president’s office through the open door while muttering the words to myself.

    “···Are you here?”

    No, Soso, why are you here…?
