      ICTU 91 Cover
      by Ember heart — Chapter 91   Chapter 27. This or That (4) The story about the young man wearing a gat that he had seen in his dream. The moment those words were spoken, a very faint, cold shiver ran down Choi Hyuk's spine. He instinctively stopped the breath he was about to inhale. Not a single muscle in his face moved, but his gaze at Seo Du-hyun grew infinitely deeper and sharper, as dark as black night. “……What did that young man wearing the gat say to you, Candidate?” Choi Hyuk's voice…

      by Ember heart — Chapter 90   Chapter 27. This or That (3) Tap. Choi Hyuk coldly closed the thick analysis report handed to him by Director Yoon Gwang-seok. He leaned deep into the back of his chair and stared through the floor-to-ceiling window. Outside, the gray sky of Gangnam and the dense forest of buildings stretched endlessly, just like any other day. Seo Doo-hyun, and Kang Jong-guk. He had spent a great deal of time thinking about which of the two he should bet on. And finally. Choi Hyuk…

      ICTU 89 Cover
      by Ember heart — Chapter 89   Chapter 27. This or That (2) There were many leading questions, but Choi Hyuk's defenses were like an iron wall. He never praised Seo Doo-hyun, nor did he support the ruling party's policies. He only gave solid, textbook answers within the broad framework of being an "entrepreneur." Because if he started taking sides, Choi Hyuk felt that the political color Seo Doo-hyun belonged to might rub off on CH as well as himself. In truth, he did not really mind if it did. As…

      by Ember heart — Chapter 88   Chapter 27. This or That (1) Late at night. A luxurious penthouse overlooking the entire city at a glance. The spacious living room was dark because none of the lights were on. Choi Hyeok sat deep in the sofa, his tired body sunk into the cushions as he stared absentmindedly at the large TV covering an entire wall. On the high-end rug below the sofa, Choi Yul was lying on her stomach, fiddling with the remote control in both hands. Yul was the one who broke the…

      by Ember heart — Chapter 87   Chapter 26. Pink Atmosphere (5) As their meal was almost over, a meaningful atmosphere continued to linger between the two of them. If someone asked what kind of atmosphere it was, Choi Hyuk would answer like this. It was a pink atmosphere filled with warmth. Moreover, Choi Hyuk did not want to let this moment pass. He did not know when he would get another chance like this. “Ms. Siyoon.” “Yes.” “If you're not too tired, would you like to take a short…

Pink Atmosphere (4) From the video meeting with a major investment company that had continued since morning, to the mountain of internal approval documents, the weekly report from the planning and production team, and even the executives' meeting about a new project for the next quarter. Because he had taken a few days off, Choi Hyuk had a mountain of work waiting for him. And yet, strangely, Choi Hyuk's concentration…

Just a few hours ago, the very name of that dish had made him shudder with disgust, but when it came from Siyoon's small lips, it no longer sounded threatening. Instead, it gave him a strange sense of anticipation and warmth. Choi Hyuk opened the slightly open door all the way and stepped back. “Come in first. Don't just stand…

Pink Atmosphere (2) The place where ASHY’s first anniversary debut party was being held was the private banquet hall of Latie Hall, right in the middle of Gangnam. Strictly controlled. Outside media were completely blocked from entering, and even the internal staff were limited to the minimum number of people whose names had been registered in advance. It was a perfect space for them alone. Even so, the soft flower…

      by Ember heart — Chapter 83   Chapter 26. Pink Atmosphere (1) Once it was confirmed that Lee Kyung-woo, who had been wanted by the police, had been caught and arrested, articles about him began pouring out from many media outlets. Lee Kyung-woo had not only tried to scam Choi Hyuk's friends, but he was also a criminal who had committed various kinds of fraud in many places and had continued to run away. Because of that, whether he had been arrested was bound to receive a lot of attention. Choi Hyuk looked at…

      by Ember heart — Chapter 25 Wanted (5) D-Day. 9 p.m. The location was the lounge of a shared office on the outskirts of Gangnam. It looked like an ordinary business meeting room, but this was a space Choi Hyuk had carefully planned. The elevator connected to the underground parking lot had been put under inspection with the management office's cooperation, and several men hired separately by Choi Hyuk were waiting in front of the emergency stairs. The only exit was the main entrance leading to the…
