Chapter 84 – A Brief Illusion

I smiled and was surprised.
At least, this wasn’t a polite behavior for Shin Hye-yeon.
To put it bluntly, everything was far from normal, but I reflexively looked at Shin Hye-yeon’s face anyway.

She was looking at me without any change in her expression.
Even the gentle smile he wore hadn’t changed at all from a few seconds ago.

“I’m with Hyeyeon.”
– Oh yeah?

I could feel Park Eun-ha hesitating.
Even before I met her, Hyeyeon Shin was already my girlfriend.
As Park Eun-ha, she deserved to have complicated feelings for Shin Hye-yeon.
I don’t think anything will fundamentally change though.

“What did Eunha do? If you’re not busy, ask me to meet you.”

Hyeyeon Shin said.
I looked at her in surprise.

“Really?”

Unknowingly, I questioned myself.
Shin Hye-yeon smiled and nodded her head.

“Yeah, there’s nothing wrong with that. It’s still a lot of time, how about shopping together? Sunggyu, although it might be a little boring for you.”
“No, no.”

A voice came from inside the phone.

– Can I meet you guys?

It seemed that the conversation between Shin Hye-yeon and me had flowed into the phone.
Hearing the voice, it seemed that Park Eun-ha also wanted to meet me.
I don’t know what the call was about, but it was only natural that the woman with whom I had such an intimate time yesterday would want to see me.
If I didn’t have another girlfriend, I would have thought that I would also like to meet Park Eun-ha.

“Yes, we are at the hotel cafe right now. I want to go shopping, would you like to come with me?”
– Huh! If only you guys are okay!

That’s how Park Eun-ha came out and joined the meeting with Shin Hye-yeon.
Before she appeared, I wondered if it was really okay for her to be like this, but after her Park Eun-ha appeared, I was more than happy to see her.

Shin Hye-yeon was also beautiful and full of force to attract people’s attention from her appearance, but Park Eun-ha also had her own beauty and aura.
Although the types were different, in terms of beauty, it was impossible to distinguish superiority and inferiority.

There were more people in the cafe than before.
I could see that their eyes naturally turned this way.

Shin Hye-yeon and Park Eun-ha both attracted people’s attention.
But the two women were only looking at me and smiling at me.

This kind of superiority was something I had hardly felt in my previous life.
After all, I always had girlfriends, and most of them were beautiful women in Hunter, but I only focused on them.
And they were never the easy types to deal with.
I’ve never felt as comfortable and happy with them as when I was with Shin Hye-yeon and Park Eun-ha.
Even with two women with me, I felt pleasant and comfortable.

“Hi, how are you?”

Shin Hye-yeon casually greeted Park Eun-ha.

“Yeah, what about you?”

Park Eun-ha had a slightly hesitant look compared to Shin Hye-yeon.
It was natural.
Yesterday she spent the night with Hyeyeon Shin’s boyfriend, me.
That night was a good enough time to say that it was ecstatic, but anyway, Park Eun-ha deserved to feel guilty.

“I was the same. Sunggyu Since he got busy, I can’t see his face often. That’s the saddest thing, what. You too come to school often. It would be nice to spend time together.”
“Okay. Sorry. Originally, I was not interested in school. I went in because of Sunggyu, but this bastard suddenly got busy. I’ll do that. See you more often at school.”

The conversation was much more natural than expected.
Park Eun-ha showed her a little bit of discomfort at first, but thanks to her Shin Hye-yeon, who made her feel comfortable, she soon shook it off.

However, Park Eun-ha’s personality was straightforward no matter what anyone said.
In her high school, she tried to hide her feelings and keep quiet on purpose, but it was hard to say that was her nature.
She’d rather have rebelled despite the numbers of her opponents when she was driven into a pinch.
That was close to her nature.

Because of her straight-forward personality, she couldn’t get over it and directly put sensitive things into her mouth.

“I’m sorry, Hyeyeon. Yesterday was… That’s how it was.”

Park Eun-ha glanced at me.
She was a rare shy woman.

My heart sank.
I vowed to get used to this situation, but my heart was still beating in the familiar direction.

“I know. Don’t think so.”

Shin Hye-yeon reached out onto her table and took Park Eun-ha’s hand.

“I know you met Sunggyu before me and liked him. Sunggyu is a special kid. No matter what happens, I can’t throw away my feelings for Sunggyu. I think you will be the same. If the situation is like this, of course, shouldn’t the response be different?”

I was dumbfounded.
If I recall the first time I met Shin Hye-yeon, her words and actions now were like a completely different person.
In addition, it was possible to know that she had been thinking about this relationship in her own way.
Of course.
What kind of woman can accept and accept this kind of thing naturally?
However, of course, the system and the change in my fate would have had the effect of her coming to this conclusion.

“Hyeyeon is you…”

Park Eun-ha faced Shin Hye-yeon with her indescribably complicated face.
I felt like a bomb was going to explode, so I was complicated.
Shin Hye-yeon took her own course to open her heart, but Park Eun-ha didn’t have enough time to do that.
If she can’t accept this as easily as Shin Hye-yeon…

“Thank you. As you say. Really, that’s what you mean.”

But my worries were in vain.
Park Eun-ha held Shin Hye-yeon’s hand tighter with her clean face.

“Whoa…”

I tried not to show it, but I couldn’t help letting out a sigh of relief.
Shin Hye-yeon and Park Eun-ha looked at me with a funny face.

“Is that real?”
– Yes, Senator. I went to work today. It has also been confirmed that the two of them met yesterday. I’m sorry to say, but…
“Huuuuu ok. You said you signed a contract today?”
– That’s right. Inside the GP, we see this deal as very big. We started commercialization right away. The recipe itself is not difficult, so I think it will be released on the market soon. If so…
“What if that happens?”
– GP will become a global company. I will also be listing. Then you will no longer have to worry about money.
“What? Is that such a great thing?”
– That’s right. Although it is a potion, the effect is completely different from the existing one. Hunters usually use potions in dungeons, but these potions are something that can be used on a daily basis. It is likely to be consumed like water. Then, GP’s sales will increase exponentially.
“Like water?”
– Yes, Kang Mi-ra boasts that the potion will be made like Coke for hunters.

Park Cheol-gwan stopped receiving the report and was lost in his thoughts.
He planted people in several places to keep an eye on Choi Joo-ri.
Naturally, there was someone inside the GP who gave him regular reports.

The reports I received today were not regular.
It was because of the strange thing that Park Cheol-gwan had said, telling him to contact him if he noticed something strange.

Park Cheol-gwan remembered a young man he had seen when he went to meet Choi Joo-ri at work a few days ago.
Sungkyu Choi.
His handsome appearance would make any woman fall in love with him.
The first time I saw it, I felt uncomfortable.
Why did he come to the company in broad daylight and meet Choi Joo-ri alone?

I just skipped it at the time, but of course I kept it in my heart and ordered an investigation.
The result was this.

Today, Choi Seong-gyu came to the company once again and met Choi Joo-ri, and the reason was because of the contract.
Therefore, Park Cheol-gwan accepted this with a headache.
Because things have become complicated to see as simply cheating.

But one thing was certain.
Regardless of whether this guy is a cheater or not, he showed up with a great recipe that changed the sound of the GP.
Today, the contract was concluded, and if things went on like this, GP would be financially independent with nothing to depend on.
That meant Choi Ju-ri could be on an equal footing with him.

“What the fuck!!”

Park Cheol-gwan suddenly screamed into the phone.
The hesitant opponent lowered his voice and spoke secretly.

– Senator.
“What?”
– I’ll try it.
“So what?”
– Let’s take out the recipe. It’s still before commercialization, so there’s plenty of room to sell it elsewhere. If everyone has the same recipe, the GP will have no room to use it. It becomes nothing.
“Hmm…”

Park Cheol-gwan thought about it.
Certainly it was.
If other companies have the recipe Choi Seong-gyu showed up with…

Products that cannot be exclusively produced do not make decisive profits, although they may be profitable.
Then, Choi Ju-ri’s dream would be shattered.

“Good. If you succeed, I will properly reward you. You can never make a mistake. I will trust you.”
– There is no way, Senator! I will do my best!
