Chapter 28 “…What? What did you just say?” “Mr. Lee Myung-hwan, you are no longer the CEO of Yunopro.” “Do you think you can just fire the CEO because you own some shares? Do you really think that makes any sense?” “Why wouldn't it make sense?” Kim Si-min smiled. A stack of documents flew from his hand and landed on the desk. “What is this?” “Read it.” Lee Myung-hwan grabbed the documents, and his face twisted badly. The first thing written there…

Chapter 27 After receiving a call from Jung Woon-taek, Kim Si-min was heading to the gambling house that President Lee Myung-hwan frequently visited. Sitting in the driver's seat was Han Moo-sik, a man with an incredibly sturdy build. “What are you staring at?” “Wasn't working with me still on hold?” “So, you don't want me to come with you?” “Well, I certainly don't mind having such a reliable bodyguard with me.” “Then what's the problem?” Ah, that speech…

Chapter 26 After resolving Choi Deuk-su's problem and returning home, Kim Si-min sank into the sofa while looking at the window that had appeared before him for the first time in a long while. It was a window he had not seen in a long time. Kim Si-min naturally took out the three lucky pouches that appeared before him and opened them.

Chapter 51 Chapter 17. The One Who Will Make It (2) The next day. As expected from a government-sponsored event, the venue was extremely elaborate. Just when Choi Hyuk was thinking, ‘Is it really necessary to decorate this much?’ he saw several reporters filming the event with their cameras and finally understood why the government officials had put so much effort into setting up the venue. ‘Well, of course.

Chapter 49 Chapter 16. The Holiday (4) The moment he stepped out of the main house, the suffocating feeling that had been lodged deep in his chest flowed away like the receding tide. Instead, the cold winter wind brushed against the tip of his nose. Separated by only one door, the sounds of laughter and fake coughs suddenly stopped. It felt as if he had crossed a boundary and stepped into another world. But he felt extremely good. Perhaps he should call it a feeling of…

Chapter 32 “Even those words would hurt that child.” “Then isn't that actually a good thing? She won't be able to break out on her own, but there will be many people outside to help her.” “Leonard.” Leonard was not a good person. Neither Aiden nor Aurelia, who had been commoners all their lives since birth, could ever understand his arrogance. That made Leonard an even more cruel person. But what was even more cruel was himself. “Even if she doesn't like it, it…-

Chapter 30 Since she had sent the sheet music, she would have to attend every recital that was held for the time being. In particular, recitals by newly debuted musicians were scheduled at awkward times rather than during the prime hours, so it would be difficult to continue working at the workshop while attending them. “I can't stop you even if I try. So go ahead.” “Thank you, Father.” “That damn piano is the problem. The moment you start tinkering away at it, you want to run…
