Chapter 15 Eleanor's eyes darkened as she stared at the firmly closed door. The image of the Viscountess of Belvor that she had seen just before the door closed remained vivid in her mind, leaving her feeling heavy-hearted. The Viscountess had been worried about the child who would be left all alone if something happened to her as well. When Eleanor remembered the sorrowful look in her eyes, her own eyes reddened. This time, things will definitely be different! “I'm…-

Chapter 14 The cold eyes that looked down at the child were as frigid as the rain pouring onto his face. Joshua shook off the child's hand. It was only a light motion, but for a young child who was already frightened and had almost no strength, it was more forceful than he could handle. As the child's body staggered, the coachman quickly caught him with one hand. He seemed quite surprised, apparently never expecting his master to act this way. Joshua frowned when he noticed that the child's muddy…

Chapter 13 Eleanor pressed her lips tightly together and said nothing. She suppressed her rising anger and examined Harry. At first, she had thought that he was simply soaked from the rain, but when she looked at him more closely, she saw that his clothes were a complete mess, as though he had rolled around in muddy water. The skin on the back of his hand had been scraped off, and blood was trickling from the wound. His hair was completely covered in rain and mud. It looked as though he had lost his…

Chapter 12 “It seems our disciple is… terribly worried about this teacher.” “Of course I am!” When Eleanor snapped angrily, the Viscountess raised the corners of her lips. Soon afterward, she covered her mouth and began coughing violently. Alarmed, Eleanor hurriedly rubbed her chest. When the nanny brought some water, Eleanor supported the Viscountess and helped her drink. After moistening her lips, the redness in her face faded slightly. When the Viscountess tried to sit up, Eleanor…

Chapter 18 “……” I stared blankly at the two stocks that were breaking through the roof of the chart like mad. Both stocks had hit the maximum they could rise in a single day, and neither showed any sign of coming back down. “Wow. This is truly amazing. Absolutely incredible.” Behind me, Assistant Manager Yoo shook his head and applauded. “How are you still holding onto them? Is this what they call having the heart of a beast? No, wait. Maybe you just don't have a heart…-

chapter 17 “Where is he right now?” Manager Park seemed to growl under his breath. “Why?” “We need to sell before things get worse. I’m not going to have his desk taken away. If he sells everything this time, it’s true that he’ll make a huge profit from Hansung Steel. But we need to teach him a serious lesson. He needs to understand that trading isn’t gambling. It’s about strict discipline and risk management.” The risk management team held tremendous power within the…

Chapter 16 “Suho~!” I turned around at the fresh, cheerful voice coming from behind me. It had only been a day since I left the Research Center. Yet somehow, it felt like it had been ages since I had seen the junior employee. “How’s life as a trader? Is it manageable? It’s on a completely different level from research, right? Your dopamine must be exploding all over the place.” “I don’t even know how the day passed.” “It was that much fun!” “……” She…

Chapter 15 “Intern Kang. How was your first day? Pretty hectic, huh… Huh?” Assistant Manager Yoo let out a gasp and smacked me on the back. “W-What on earth did you do?!” I was startled too and finally snapped out of my daze. “Excuse me?” “What is this? Why is all the money invested here?!” “……” “Oh, dear. I should’ve come earlier. You looked so innocent that I thought you’d be too scared to buy anything properly. But this isn’t the heart of a beast.…

Chapter 14 “Son. Did you say you’re becoming a permanent employee next month?” “Huh? Ah, y-yeah… But didn’t you ask me that yesterday, too?” “Hehe. It’s because I’m so proud of my son. So proud.” “……” Mom patted me on the back as she spoke. “You worked hard again today. Seeing you work so diligently makes me feel sorry for you, but I’m also so proud. It really feels like you’ve become a proper adult.” Hearing her say that made me feel good, but at…

Chapter 13 “It’s worse than usual today.” Maybe it was because there was so much fine dust in the air. Breathing felt especially difficult today. That was how my commute usually was. Normally, wearing a mask made things bearable, but whenever the air quality was bad, the foul odors and dust would stab at my nose and torment me. “Going to work really is the hardest part.” It wasn’t because I disliked going to the company. It was the journey to the company that was…
