“…What?”
Lee Kyung-ho had no choice but to question the unexpected answer.
“You’re going to hand over the company?”
I expected something like compensation or an apology.
What is the intention behind handing over the company?
“Pay off the remaining debt. If you hand over your company stock to us, you can survive. “Actually, that’s the only way.”
That’s natural.
What is the point of a company that has never made a profit?
“Sell on Jia’s side?”
Is that the end?
After all the threats I’ve made so far, it feels like I’ve opened up a way for them to survive. What’s the benefit to Jia?
Since Lee Kyung-ho didn’t know the internal situation, he couldn’t help but be skeptical.
It was worthwhile for Joo Hyuk.
‘It worked cheaper than borrowing a name.’
Popular culture and arts planning business.
Starting this business requires many years of experience in the relevant industry.
Joo Hyuk’s career wasn’t enough to fill it all. It took two more years.
He had no intention of staying on as a manager for two years.
“All you have to do is borrow the name and start a business. Or, someone who has already started a business will hand over the company to you.”
This is what I heard when I spoke on the phone with a senior legal officer.
Other methods were barely legal. This is the only normal and stable method.
And from Lee Kyung-ho’s perspective, it was the same.
“Ah… I understand. “Let’s do that.”
In the end he made a decision. He said he would pay off the remaining debt and hand over the company.
“You are no longer a representative or a shareholder.”
Okay.
Joo-hyuk presents the documents he has already prepared.
Lee Kyung-ho held the pen with trembling hands.
‘okay. ‘Let’s just forget about it and live our lives.’
There is no way anyway.
If they really make a profit from that company, he might lose his job and even be sued for damages.
I wouldn’t go that far in the private sector, but large corporations are not people to look down on.
You can do that even for the sake of the world.
‘You saw the trailer earlier.’
If you think about the times when you were attacked thinking it was an audit team, this seems like a cheap deal.
Kyung-ho Lee thought like that as he drew a pen.
‘uh?’
Why does that happen when you’ve been in society for a long time? Before you sign any document, everything becomes suspicious.
‘for a moment. You’re not selling this to Jia, are you?’
The other person’s name is Kim Joo-hyuk.
“Now wait… is this your name?”
“okay.”
“Sell it to Jia?”
“Jia’s side.”
Joo-hyuk points to himself and shrugs.
Jia’s side is him.
“This… doesn’t make sense. Did Seo Ji-ah agree?”
‘what?’
Joo Hyuk thought it was a strange reaction.
I’m sorry for Seo Ji-ah or here.
Wouldn’t it be nice if he could just leave the corporation?
It’s like paying off only half of the debt.
He even speaks gibberish.
“Not this. Honestly I can’t believe you. You lied everything from the beginning. I… I don’t think Gia would agree to this. “This is strange.”
Joo Hyuk sighed and nodded.
“Then I’m reading it slowly to see if it’s anything strange. You can see it with your own eyes. “I was going to call and confirm anyway.”
Jia is also a co-representative, so we need to check with each other. At least that’s the case on paper. I had finished talking with Jia.
‘I didn’t know you’d be suspicious like this.’
I didn’t know you would be suspicious because I didn’t want to sell it to Joo Hyuk.
Anyway, Joo-hyuk sends a message and begins to explain everything to Jia.
Meanwhile, Kyung-ho Lee read the letters in the document. But there was no way anything could work out in this situation.
Nevertheless, he checked the letters while pressing down on his beating heart.
There is no problem with the contract itself.
But I have doubts.
“…under.”
Are you sure?
In this situation, will I be able to confirm this by reading this with my heart pounding?
‘It’s crazy to sign here anyway.’
He thought he should at least call a lawyer.
They should have at least reviewed this document.
“Is everything suspicious because you are running so many scams? Do you think others are like you?”
“…what?”
“You don’t have a choice anyway. I don’t know what you’re worried about. I’m just helping to speed up the process. “There is nothing more than this.”
With those words, Joo Hyuk picked up the phone.
A familiar voice came from the speaker phone.
[I also agreed.]
The moment Lee Kyung-ho heard that voice, his mind heated up.
“Ji… Jia. “Is that really… you?”
[Yes.]
Joo-hyuk adjusted his glasses and watched Lee Kyung-ho’s reaction.
‘This is unexpected.’
He didn’t think Lee Kyung-ho really liked Jia.
That’s because the only thing he did was cause harm.
But…
“When I called, he… didn’t answer…”
When talking to Joo-hyuk, he seemed like the head of the planning department who was sharp in his own way.
When I heard Jia’s voice, it seemed like a completely different person.
‘So you said it was okay to sell it to Jia, but it was strange to sell it to me?’
I didn’t understand.
‘If it’s going to be like this, why did you do it?’
I don’t know.
Although it is said that there is no relationship in which common sense is not as common as that between a man and a woman…
“Jia. Let’s meet. Let’s meet and talk. uh? “I can explain everything…”
Lee Kyung-ho almost begs.
[I don’t like it…]
“What? This is what I do. How can you not even meet me? uh?”
Lee Kyung-ho seemed to have almost forgotten that Joo-hyuk was next to him.
[meet? I don’t even want to talk to you. Talking to you in front of my boyfriend right now… do you know this is a pleasant feeling?]
“Ji Ji-ya?”
[I’m afraid that if I keep talking now, you’ll say things like I recorded my voice or something!]
Jia gasped for a moment as if she was out of breath.
[Ha… I’m saying this because I’m afraid that might happen. Anyway… I agreed to the contract. You can just leave. Then there will be no problem.]
“Jia. I got that money…! I’ll pay it all back. I just need to send less money home. Then it will be soon. uh?”
[Is it that simple? Then I should have paid it back sooner.]
“I didn’t pay it back on purpose! I’m afraid that the only link I have with you will be broken! If this happens, you will have no choice but to appear again! “But you’re sending the man you’re seeing now?!”
[You are just a crazy person. Please go to a psychiatrist. You don’t have to repay the money I’ve already paid. Because it’s cheap to deal with you.]
“Oh, how could you treat me!” no. no. That money! I’ll pay you back! So—”
Tuk.
The phone was disconnected.
Lee Kyung-ho lowered his upper body and said nothing. All I could see was his chin shaking.
Joo Hyuk entered the final stages of his work.
“This currency is the greatest mercy that can be shown right now. Nothing more than this. “Except everything goes according to the trailer.”
Kyungho Lee raised his head.
“What are you…what are you? Why why did you do this? From the looks of it, it’s not like you’re short on money!? “What the heck…”
It feels really bad to face a man in his 30s covered in tears. Joo Hyuk thought so.
“I have to tie a knot. “Wouldn’t that be the case for me?”
“….”
Certainly, from the current lover’s perspective, it couldn’t have been good for the ghost of the past to haunt him like this.
But this wasn’t just a passionate fight like kicking out an ex-boyfriend.
There is no need for Joo-hyuk to prepare this much for such an event.
It would have been resolved quickly just by reporting the stalking, filing a complaint, and even coming and kicking it in person.
It may be a hassle, but it’s probably nothing compared to the time it took to prepare this scenario.
‘I have something to gain on my own.’
He is looking at something different.
Perhaps Lee Kyung-ho also feels that sense of disconnect. He seems to have a good sense of it.
But it was no use.
Lee Kyung-ho was just an extra trapped in the scenario that Joo-hyuk had put so much effort into.
In the end, he had no choice but to cry and pick up the pen.
And then he starts signing.
Ssyuk.
Sssseuseu….
The contract was finalized after going through three or four certificate authentications.
widely.
Joo Hyuk snatched the documents and put them in his bag. And then he stood up.
“That’s a good choice. Manager Lee.”
It’s over now.
entire.
‘I guess there’s nothing to see.’
Kyung-ho Lee was still sitting there, as if he was in a daze.
A lot of time has passed. There is no contact even from colleagues who entered first. They probably thought it was the audit team, so they already cut their losses.
‘I was originally going to give you a punch.’
I thought Joo-hyuk would at least kick him in the head with his shoe.
However, beating up a man who had already lost his fighting spirit and was only shedding tears did not suit Joo-hyuk’s hobby.
‘Because a suitable punishment is prepared anyway.’
Anyway, getting kicked was like a free gift compared to the gifts that would be given to Lee Kyung-ho in the future.

“ruler. Almond~! great. “One more take from here and this scene will be over.”
“Yes yes.”
Meanwhile, the filming site was almost at its end.
Compared to the first commercial, Sanghyun has become much more proficient.
“ah. Is it good? I think it’ll take one shot!”
Because this advertisement featured Sanghyeon entirely alone, there was no waiting time.
Lee Kyung-ho came in halfway through filming and just sat quietly with a distraught look on his face.
A colleague who is worse off asks.
“…Chief Lee. “What was it?”
“no. nothing.”
He didn’t answer. Who are you telling this to in the first place?
“I think the filming is going well. I’m sorry, but… can I go first?”
“uh. is it so. I have an appointment nearby later. “Let’s go further from here.”
Seeing that he looked so droopy, his colleague readily accepted.
“yes. “Then…”
Lee Kyung-ho said thank you, took his bag, and got into the backseat of his car, massaging his sore neck.
dump.
“Haa…”
He looked up at the ceiling for a moment and sighed.
“The Harrison Hotel. “A place I use often.”
[He heads to the parking lot of The Harrison Hotel, which he often used as a destination.]
The car started alone and headed to the hotel he liked to visit.
He lands in the parking lot and takes out his golf bag from the trunk.
“hello. Member.”
“yes. “It’s a one-day ticket.”
At the counter, I casually prepaid everything with Beopka and then went to the sauna.
After warming up for a while, he took out the golf clubs from the storage box and headed to the golf course provided inside.
“Wow. Mr. Gyeongho. Are you here again? “I want to know just how good your skills are.”
“ah. yes. If you don’t have talent, you have to work hard. ha ha ha.”
“How’s business going these days?”
“No~ I’m coming to relieve that stress.”
“It’s a shame. For someone who comes here so often, there’s no one I don’t like. ha ha ha.”
I chat about other worlds with the impressive acquaintances I meet all the time. If you do this, everything will soon be forgotten.
After that, he went to work peacefully again. Did about a week pass like that?
“uh? Why are you doing this!? “What is it?”
It was a car where I was having a peaceful morning at work.
“This is the audit team. “I’ll take it for a moment.”
“What?”
The real audit team started to take out his desk. This is what a real audit team looks like.
“No…”
Only then did Lee Kyung-ho distinguish between the real and the fake… but
he should never have had the ability to distinguish in the first place.
Because you can’t face the real thing.
“Oh no, you can’t do that!”
chin.
A slightly older looking person grabbed his shoulder and stopped him.
“The report came in and I checked and it turned out to be correct. Let’s go together. Or should I tell you everything here?”
All of his subordinates, colleagues, and seniors who worked with him are looking this way.
“what? “What did the manager do?”
“Hasn’t it been a while since you came here?”
“Looks like something got caught. Ugh….”
“Madame, don’t just throw poop….”
There weren’t many people who could endure so many gazes.
“…Let go of the paddle. “I will go.”
Kyung-ho Lee lowered his head and followed the audit team as if running away.
* * *
“No, now they’ve been dragged away? how?”
Sanghyun asked.
He opens his eyes as if he is very interested.
The green bottle placed on the red table of the food stall is the same as before.
I had forgotten to drink for a while and was listening to Lee Kyung-ho’s story.
I thought it ended with him handing over the company, but in the end, he ended up being referred to the disciplinary committee.
I couldn’t help but be surprised.
Maybe it was Joo-hyuk’s design?
“You did it?”
When Sanghyun asks again, Joohyuk nods.
“okay. “I did it.”
He grinned, his face flushed with alcohol. It seems refreshing.
“Isn’t it shameful to end it like that? “In the end, we just took care of the mess and scolded him.”
