Chapter 43 Chapter 15. The Fight That Came to Him First (2) The CEO of Lumenator, Seo Jun-ha. There was something unusual about the way he looked at Choi Hyuk. His eyes were filled with wariness, as though he were looking at a rival. After meeting so many different people over the years, Choi Hyuk had reached a point where he could usually tell at a glance what kind of feelings someone held toward him. And he came to one conclusion. ‘This guy doesn’t seem to like me very…-

Chapter 42 Chapter 15. The Fight That Came to Him First (1) Winter sunlight shattered sharply across the floor through the office’s wall-to-wall windows. Choi Hyuk lightly tapped a business card and several other documents lying on his desk with his fingertips. Something completely unexpected had happened to him today. Director Yoon Gwang-seok carefully spoke while watching Choi Hyuk’s reaction. “I never expected an interview request to come in for you,…

Chapter 41 Chapter 14. A Special Fan (3) After finishing what could be called either a long or short vacation, the ASHY members returned to their dorm and began preparing in earnest for their second album. The biggest event among all of this was undoubtedly ASHY’s first fan meeting. The fan meeting was also something Choi Hyuk had strongly insisted on from the very beginning, back when he was planning the ASHY project. When he received a call from the CEO of CHN, Choi Hyuk answered…

Chapter 40 Chapter 14. A Special Fan (2) Warm steam rose gently from the dining table in the middle of the living room. “CEO, please sit here. It’s hot, so be careful.” Siyoon said this as she tightened the strings of her apron. Instead of the charisma of the perfect center everyone saw on stage, what filled her now was a serious yet gentle air that somehow felt very homely. As Choi Hyuk sat down, the aroma tickling his nose made him narrow his eyes. It wasn’t the scent of…

Chapter 24 “Was your previous experience uncomfortable? If there was anything that bothered you, please let me know, and I will take care of it.” “No, no. It’s fine. It’s not like that….” Aurelia hesitated for a moment, watching the usher’s reaction. The usher naturally assumed that Leonard would be performing. It was not easy to tell someone who thought that way that she was the performer today. “I’ll be the one performing today. Mr. Deimus will, um… be…-

Chapter 23 At this point, it was obvious what Aiden was doing. He must have chosen a piece Aurelia was already familiar with, hoping to make things even a little easier for her. Still, Leonard did not like Aiden’s approach. No musician would be happy to receive sheet music that every pianist had played at least once. If Leonard were Aurelia, he would never choose such an overused piece to prove himself. “Do you even consider her a musician?” Leonard never thought Aurelia was…

Chapter 22 It was obvious without even looking. Aiden must have deliberately brought sheet music that Aurelia would be familiar with, hoping to make things even slightly easier for her. But Leonard did not like Aiden’s approach. No musician would be pleased to receive sheet music that every pianist had played at least once. If Leonard were Aurelia, he would never choose such an ordinary, overused piece to prove himself. “Do you even consider her a musician in the first…

Chapter 21 “I knew you’d come.” After seeing Aurelia home, Aiden’s final destination was Leonard’s house. The kind of place where thick smoke always poured out through the windows. Whenever Aiden opened the door to Leonard’s house, the smoke seemed almost afraid of the man who had created it, clinging helplessly to Aiden’s body instead. “I was hoping you wouldn’t.” “How long are you planning to stay here? You have plenty of good hotels to choose from, so I…

Chapter 24 Eroika hurriedly finished speaking and turned her gaze toward the window, where the trees swayed in the wind. Now that she had said it aloud, she could not understand why she had brought it up in the first place. But Eroika knew one thing. The reason she could now feel even a little more at ease in a place like an orphanage, which had always been a source of fear and psychological discomfort for her, was entirely because of Kaileph. She had not brought it up because she…-

Chapter 23 Grrr... Perhaps because she had skipped her meal, Eroika's stomach growled loudly. At Kaileph's quiet, almost mocking laugh, she felt her face grow hot. “Cough... What were you doing with the children earlier? You were lifting them up one after another.” Desperate to cover up the embarrassing sound, Eroika decided to say whatever came to mind. He had obviously heard it anyway. “I was giving them airplane rides.” Kaileph did not seem to have any intention of hiding his…
