Chapter 404 – Part 3

Seongjin hung up her phone and sat down on the sofa with her mouth firmly shut.

“Why? What? Why are you talking on the phone for so long?”

Jo Young-rae hurriedly asked, putting her butt on the edge of the sofa.
Jin also looked at Seongjin with her worried face.

“Ha ha.. These bastards.. Really..
This is the method Lucky Jinseong these bastards used often.
They say it’s a method of stealing technology from a powerless company, making and launching the same product, and pushing ahead with financial power to make the product that was released earlier disappear.
And when a lawsuit goes in, the prosecution and the judge lobby to make the trial drag on, or make the decision in the favor of the outcome and ruin the company.
Then go and take over the company at a low price and take over the market..
They are complete assholes.”

“No… That’s about powerless companies. It has nothing to do with you.”

“Of course it is, but… If these idiots use their hands and the injunction is dropped late, or if a lawsuit drags on time, only we will suffer. It’s a very fucking case.
Still, I ordered you to take legal action, so please wait.”

But then, as if he knew the atmosphere, the office phone rang loudly.

“Yes. This is Seongjin Lee. Ah! Sungyeol hyung. Yes? I beg your pardon?”

Seongjin sighed and hung up the phone. Again, Cho Young-rae hurriedly asked.

“Why? Why? What is it?”

“It’s Sungyeol-hyung’s future health food, but Lucky Jinseong has launched a chitosan product.”

“What? It’s our exclusive too. Uh? This is something strange…”

It was Young-rae who suddenly felt suspicious that HK Group had released a product that it had exclusively at the same time.

“Huh. It seems that he seemed to hate Lucky Jinseong for some reason. This is totally for you guys to fuck me.”

But at that time, Jang So-jin, who was watching the situation with a worried gaze, suddenly spoke up.

“Ah… Seongjin-ah. Choi Mi-yeon…”

“Huh? Ah!!!”

It was only then that Seongjin remembered that he had completely forgotten Choi Miyeon.
Then, she could clearly see why Lucky Jinseong had suddenly started a war like this.

“Keuheu… I’m sorry, Young-rae, but now go. This will be handled at the group level.. So you know..”

“Okay. I get it.”

Seongjin did not dare to bring up Choi Mi-yeon in front of Jo Young-rae, so she quickly tried to get Jo Young-rae out.
Jo Young-rae was awkward at the sudden change of atmosphere, and when he nodded to Jin So-jin and left, Jin So-jin quickly approached Seong-jin and started talking.

“Baby, haven’t you been in contact with Miyeon lately?”

“Uh.. That.. That’s because I’m a bit.. Busy..”

She couldn’t tell Seong-jin that Aunt Hyo-seon had given birth to Seol-hee and that she had forgotten Choi Mi-yeon because she was obsessed with it.
When Sung-jin awkwardly turned her words around, Jang-so Jin sighed.

“Okay? Uh… That’s weird Apparently, Miyeon said she would call her first…
Actually, she was on the phone with Miyeon a few days ago. She said that Mi-yeon seems to be having a hard time because of Go Byeong-ho..”

“What? Go Byeong-ho? She said Mi-yeon must have told me that she broke up with Ko Byeong-ho..”

When Seongjin mentioned the story of Go Byeong-ho, she was taken aback.

“I did, but Go Byeong-ho seems to be bothering me by visiting Mi-yeon every day. While I keep talking about herself to Miyeon, she continues to brainwash her as she tells her to. But she says that Miyeon seems to be having a hard time these days.”

“Haa.. So.. Now this is Ko Byeong-ho taking revenge on me for losing Mi-yeon to me, or something like that? It’s ridiculous.”

Seongjin was dumbfounded, so he wasn’t even angry.

“Well.. I don’t know about that, but from what I know at first glance, Ko Byeong-ho doesn’t have any power.. I think this is probably the fault of Chairman Ko Bong-soo.. Shall I talk to my mother and find out?”

“Yeah.. Find out what happened.”

“Okay. Okay. Then I’ll go and see. And I will find out and contact you right away.”

“Do you want to go eat lunch together?”

When Jang Jang-jin said that he was moving, Seong-jin said that it was awkward to ask Jang Jang-jin and Mrs. Hong Ra-gyeong, who were both women, so he brought up a meal that was not on her mind.
But where Jean was, she knew that something was wrong with the person she now loved, and as she was angry with her, all her nerves were on it.
As much as that, the place Jin, who has come to love her Seong-jin, is her Seong-jin’s business, so she can do anything.

“No. Lunch is the problem now. We’ve been having a hard time…”

Jang Ji-jin greeted her and left, and Seong-jin put her hand on her forehead.
How did they meet her again, but she forgot Choi Mi-yeon…
Seongjin said she was dumbfounded by herself.

No matter how much she loses her mind to Mrs. Hyo-seon and Seol-hee, she is like that. How could she forget the promise she made to her?
When she thought of how much Choi Mi-yeon had been waiting for, and how disappointed she must have been, Seong-jin’s face flushed.

Seongjin took out her cell phone and looked for Miyeon Choi’s number, then she hesitated for a moment.
Seongjin frowned slightly at her and pressed her call button.

Meanwhile at that time.
Choi Mi-yeon and Go Byeong-ho were having a meal at a high-end restaurant.

“Oh look. Miyeon.”

Go Byeong-ho cut her steak into small pieces and put it in front of Choi Mi-yeon’s mouth.
As if disapproving of her, Choi Mi-yeon frowned and looked at Ko Byeong-ho, but Ko Byeong-ho continued to hold out her fork, looking at Choi Mi-yeon with her smiley face.
Reluctantly, Miyeon Choi opened her mouth and ate her steak.

“Brother. It can’t be like this. I can eat by myself.”

“Huh. Okay. Okay. I won’t do it anymore
Mi Yuna. What shall we eat and do? The weather is nice. Shall we go for a drive to the outskirts?”

Until now, Go Byeong-ho had been friendly with Choi Mi-yeon to the point where I wondered if he was the prostitute Go Byeong-ho.
Even when Ko Byeong-ho told her to go for a drive, Choi Mi-yeon remained expressionless, but Go Byeong-ho continued to smile when she saw Choi Mi-yeon like that, and tried to lighten her mood.

‘Aww… Such a mean bitch. I’m doing this, but the reaction is so hot.. Let’s just get married and see. Bitch like a dog..’

Then, there was no way that Go Byeong-ho would treat the real Choi Mi-yeon with love.

It has already been more than three weeks since Go Byeong-ho visited Choi Mi-yeon.
Choi Mi-yeon, who at first said she didn’t like it, said that they broke up, and told her not to come again, ended up having a meal with the two of them because of the coy atmosphere of the family asking them to forgive them and Go Byung-ho’s genuinely changed appearance.

However, the reason Choi Mi-yeon allowed Go Byeong-ho to have her meal was partly due to her resentment towards Seong-jin.
How can I not contact you even after three weeks have passed since the holidays?

Choi Mi-yeon continued to bluntly cut and eat her steak, but Ko Byeong-ho kept tempting her to go for a drive while telling funny stories.
Ko Byung-ho has not been able to play properly for over three weeks.
I wanted to take some medicine and make a mess with the girls, but I was about to die trying to put up with it and curry favor with Choi Mi-yeon.

So, Ko Byeong-ho, thinking that he couldn’t continue like this, decided to commit the act when Choi Mi-yeon finally agreed to eat.
He persuaded them to go for a drive, took them to their villa, and then made up their minds to set the mood, drink, and throw themselves out of the woods.

‘What will Ji do? If you call your father-in-law after spending the night together and say you’re sorry, he’ll immediately give you permission to marry. Haha..’

Go Byeong-ho continued to entice Choi Mi-yeon to go for a drive with soft words.
For more than three weeks, Choi Mi-yeon, who was relieved to some extent by Go Byeong-ho’s extreme devotion, gradually felt frustrated, but the thought of going for a drive began to seep into her.
However, Choi Mi-yeon, whose love and longing for Seong-jin was even greater, did not answer her, she just ate in silence.

“Miyeon. Let’s go huh? Don’t you want to see the sea? Ah~ If you run coolly on Gyeongchun-ro and get blown by the cool breeze off the coast of Sokcho… Wouldn’t it kill you? Mi Yuna. Let’s go. Huh?
When school starts now, you have to study all over again. So, let’s go and get some fresh air before school starts.”

I could see her Miyeon Choi’s eyes shaking.

‘Okay. It’s okay. I’m almost over now Hehe… Choi Mi-yeon, you’re done for today.’

But at that time, the old-fashioned bell sounded from Miyeon Choi’s bag.
It was a rugged black cellphone that calls with a bar-shaped antenna made by Jangsung Electronics.
Choi Mi-yeon put down her fork and took out her cell phone, looking at the small screen that glowed green.

Choi Mi-yeon’s eyes widened, and she suddenly began to tremble violently in her pupils.
Go Byeong-ho wondered what was going on with Choi Mi-yeon’s violent reaction, but Mi-yeon Choi suddenly glanced at her and put her cell phone in her bag.

“Why? Who? Don’t you accept?”

“Huh? Yeah… It’s okay… It’s okay.”

Go Byeong-ho smiled again and tried to bring up the story of her drive, but Choi Mi-yeon’s gaze was already looking at her in a daze.
Go Byeong-ho’s face was distorted.
I don’t know who called, but the finished rice was sprinkled with ashes.

Still, Ko Byung-ho tried to bring his words out in order to somehow set the mood again.
When Choi Mi-yeon’s cell phone rang again, cursing came out of her mouth.

“Ah.. Fuck.. Really..”

Go Byeong-ho, who unknowingly cursed, looked at Choi Mi-yeon in surprise.
However, Choi Mi-yeon was not even looking at Ko Byeong-ho.
She was just staring blankly at the small screen on her phone, restless.

It was the phone call from Sungjin that he had been hoping for.
Choi Mi-yeon was filled with all sorts of emotions.
She couldn’t even properly know how she was feeling right now, such as joy, longing, disappointment, fluttering, hesitation, etc.

“Who is it? Don’t look at me and pick up the phone.”

Go Byeong-ho said to Choi Mi-yeon as if nothing had happened.
Choi Mi-yeon was taken aback by Go Byeong-ho’s words, then she raised the phone with both hands and began to hesitate.

Go Byeong-ho felt a sense of shame for a moment.

“You… By any chance. That phone call… Is it Seongjin Lee?”

“Yes? Ah.. No.. That… That…”

Go Byeong-ho’s impression was terribly crumpled and his bloody energy began to radiate.
However, Choi Mi-yeon did not care at all whether Ko Byeong-ho did or not.
She was only wondering whether to answer the phone now or not.

In the end, her phone was cut off, and Choi Mi-yeon, who was looking at it sadly, hurriedly put her cell phone in her bag and jumped up with the bag.

“Brother. I’ll go first. Thank you for your meal today.”

She hurriedly threw her words and Choi Mi-yeon ran after her and left her seat.

“Uh? Uh? Mi… Mi Yuna. Wait for a sec. Hey.. Choi Mi-yeon.”

Go Byeong-ho, who had been hesitantly standing up, sat down in his seat and smiled dejectedly.

“Lee Seong-jin… You bastard. You end up interfering with my work. Sigh..”

Go Byeong-ho sat there grinding his teeth for a while, then took out his cell phone and made a call somewhere.
It seemed like I couldn’t even do this anymore.
I just wanted to beat them all up, go somewhere to binge drink, and wreck all the girls.

“Uh.. It’s me. Byeongho. Gather some kids. Let’s have a drink today what? Not today? Haha.. Fuck. Yes I got it See you soon.”

Ko Byeong-ho grabbed his cell phone and was about to throw it away, but stopped.
Then, with a smile on his lips, he called again somewhere.

“Yes. Mrs. That’s me. Can you send just the two of us to Gapyeong today? Ah!! There is no one else. It’s a mess. Yes. All right. See you later. Heh..”

Jin So-ra had her retirement and she was a female entertainer who became the new entertainment madam du.
Perhaps because of her new activity, this mid-level talent woman was very enthusiastic.
Maybe that’s why I’ve been seeing this woman often in dramas these days.

Ko Byeong-ho liked this female talent very much.
Even though she was very young, she treated her very kindly, as if she were a high-ranking president, and even with such a simple conversation, she took care of her children and coloneled them.
Of course, her money is a little more broken than when Jin So-ra was, but she couldn’t be bothered with a few pennies of her money.

Go Byeong-ho left to do what he had done before, and did not know that it was the end of his life.

Choi Mi-yeon hurriedly left her restaurant and felt that her heart would explode, so she went into a nearby coffee shop and sat down.

She held her cellphone in her hand, wondering if she would get a call from Sungjin, but she didn’t receive any more calls.
Choi Mi-yeon, who was suddenly sullen, ordered her a cup of coffee, and she hesitated on whether or not to call Seong-jin again.

For some reason, Choi Mi-yeon felt sorry for Seong-jin.
Even having dinner with Ko Byeong-ho today, he eventually lost to the family’s compulsion and Go Byeong-ho’s sincerity.

Choi Mi-yeon let out a deep sigh and called Jang Ji-jin, not Seong-jin.
Place Jin answered her call as if he had been waiting.

[Uh.. Miyeon. Where are you?]

“Ha.. Sister. Is the time okay?”

[Huh. Then. If it’s our Miyeon, it’s fine anytime.]

“Thank you. Sister..
I… A little while ago… I got a call from Mr. Seongjin.”
