Breaking Up Is Better Than Divorce

To make matters worse

“He was so scared. So far, I’ve done everything he told me to do. Black!”

Han Chae-ah sheds tears again.

No, it is highly likely that the other side of the phone is only smiling and crying.

“Sorry. sorry. Black!”

Maybe he’s so absorbed in acting that he’s really crying.

“He won’t let me go. So I’m running away. Now here…”

She tried to tell me where she was.

“I would rather go to the police. Seeing me now won’t help. Rather, your actions will only be questioned. If you’re really being threatened by that man, that’s the only way to live.”

Eugene never thought of meeting her or helping her.

However, I can’t leave a coldly ignorant statement.

If so, this woman will use it as a weapon.

“Call the police right now. And also in newspapers. Any newspaper is fine. All Korean reporters are looking for you right now, so they’ll listen to anything you say right now. ah! Except for the Minkuk Ilbo.”

“Are you still unable to forgive me?”

“It’s not about forgiveness. I’m talking about the best way to survive. You’re a smart person, so you’ll understand what I mean.”

“okay. I will do that. And… if I survive, I’ll call you back. Then I will ask for forgiveness again.”

Without giving up hope until the very end, she hung up the phone.

“Bad bastard!”

When the phone hung up, the woman began to swear again. Even if I did, it didn’t come off either.

“Are you pretending not to know that you were raped anyway? dirty bastard. you were the same ㅤ!”

The woman spit on the road.

These are things you wouldn’t normally do. However, in a corner, she didn’t even know that the nature she had been hiding was coming out.

After thinking for a while, the woman calls again somewhere.

“Mom. It’s me. uh. did you watch the show? Don’t look at it like that. After all, they’re all just swearing at me now. Rather than that, I’ll pack my bags now and get out of there. Why? Just do what you’re told. Where are you hiding with your child? for now. huh? no. it’s kinda okay there Go somewhere else you don’t know. right now. I don’t bring anything, just a bottle and a diaper and go out. Buy what you need outside… with cash. I see. Don’t even call other people until I get in touch.”

The woman who gave the urgent instructions hung up again.

After standing there and pondering for a moment, she turned and started walking towards somewhere.

After hanging up, Eugene thought about it for a while. How do I do this conversation?

Of course, the worries don’t last long. Eugene immediately called the lawyer and informed him of the conversation that had just taken place.

“Did you record the call? Okay. If so, we will determine it as an emergency and notify the police. Please send me the recorded file. Rather, it is a good thing. I think we can feed the Daeyang group one more shot. haha.”

He is a lawyer from a high-ranking position in the prosecution, so I believe he will take care of it.

That evening, luxury cars again gathered at the mansion of the chairman of the Daeyang Group.

“What the hell are you doing! Why did no one know yet that he had such evidence!”

A loud roar echoed through the mansion that was hard to believe it was the voice of a ninety-year-old man.

Crisp!

The Joseon white porcelain on the table in the living room was thrown into the hands of the old man and shattered, but no one cared about it.

“sorry. father.”

The eldest son, his children, and his son-in-law all bowed their heads in unison and prayed for a mistake.

How could anyone possibly know what the other person might have, but the important thing now wasn’t to decide what was right or wrong.

Until the old man’s surname, whose anger had reached the top of his head, was released, he had no choice but to frown.

“Aren’t all of them mindless? How could you make things like this!”

The old man’s anger never subsided.

Wow!

From the pottery on the table to the ashtray, it flew in the sky.

Every time that happened, the sons and son-in-law all flinched in fear that they might fly to him.

“Look at what the world is saying about the ocean now! They are unscrupulous bastards.”

bang!

The old man’s fist struck the table.

“How in the world could this be? Wouldn’t it be better if it was murder, adultery? her! That’s amazing! Where can you guys go with your heads up?”

At every word the old man spit out, the figures in the left bowed their heads and looked uncomfortable.

Even though it’s embarrassing, it doesn’t seem like it’s usually embarrassing.

If Ryu Seong-gyu, the party involved, had been here, he would have been very timid.

But Ryu Seong-gyu was not here now.

“Someone should have figured out what he was up to! What kind of business are you running with such minds?”

The old man’s reproach continued for a long time.

“Where is the child now?”

Finally, the arrow of the old man returned to the person who brought the incident.

“They say they are coming. I’m on my way from Gyeonggi-do, but the car seems to be blocked.”

Ryu Geun-soo, Sunggyu’s father, answered.

“It’s not coming. I don’t want to see you like that, so please don’t even come here.”

said the old man in a voice full of anger.

“yes. father. We’re going to keep it down for the time being.”

“For the time being, whatever, send him to Taean right away!”

Ryu Geun-soo is startled by the old man’s words.

“All right.”

But what else to vomit?

All I had to do was agree and accept it.

“You mean Taean? Yes. All right.”

Sunggyu, who was driving his car to his grandfather’s house, got a phone call from his father and frowned.

“I will go home now and pack my things. No… Yes, I understand. Shit!”

As soon as he hung up the phone, Sunggyu spat out abusive language.

The only ones in Taean are sanatoriums and villas belonging to the Daeyang Group.

There is nothing to do at the sanatorium, so what can Sunggyu do there?

It means to just stay in the villa and live like you’re dead until you’re called.

Since I fell out of my grandfather’s eyes one by one, it was uncertain whether he would be able to come back again.

“You damn bastard! die! die! die!”

Sunggyu stopped the car and slammed the steering wheel with both hands.

“Let’s see. I know I’ll be quiet like this! Kang Yoojin! 이 개새끼! I know how to die at my hands!”

I have been angry for not being able to solve my anger for a while, and the phone rings.

Seeing the other person’s phone number displayed on the phone, Sunggyu twisted his face again.

“what are you doing? Why haven’t you left yet? I told you to leave on the fastest plane.”

Press the call button and start screaming.

– I avoided myself because I thought there were reporters at the airport. I think everyone is looking at me.

“Where are you now?”

– Cheongju. It’s near the terminal.

“Why did you go there again?”

– I got on any bus. There was no slack.

“Damn it, what are you going to do? now?”

– I’d rather hide in a quiet place.

“Do that.”

– So, by the way, give me some money to protect myself from damage for the time being.

“yes? Ummm… yes. I’d rather do this Did I mention that it’s near the Cheongju terminal now? I’ll send someone, so come this way. Let’s make plans for the future.”

Sunggyu’s voice softened, but his eyes were shining.

After hanging up with the woman, Sunggyu called again somewhere else.

Upon arriving at the company, Eugene looked at the reaction of the media and the Internet.

As you might have guessed, opinions are divided all over today’s events.

– Wow! this bro is awesome How come you haven’t popped it yet?

– It must have been because it was sloppy. Wouldn’t it be easy to disclose that your fiancee was having an affair with another man?

– Actually, even like me, I can’t speak easily. What’s more, everyone in the world knows it.

– I’m so glad. If I hadn’t found that video, wouldn’t I have just gotten married?

– Wow, that’s terrible. Marrying a woman like that and living together?

In general, there are many positive articles about Eugene.

– I don’t know if the video is real. you’re so rich So, can’t we make fake videos too?

– You’re talking nonsense. how do you make it What’s more, I’m going to submit it to the court as evidence.

– What can’t you do with Hollywood special effects? Wouldn’t it be nice to spend a billion dollars?

– There are things in the world that work for money and there are things that don’t. wake up from your delusion

On the other hand, there are many articles that try to criticize Eugene somehow.

It is natural. The other side must be desperate right now.

– By the way, it’s funny because you’re the Daeyang group. How long ago was the youngest grandson? You bought it in America. Are you a grandson again? All your grandchildren are just leaving.

– At that time, he wasn’t a grandson, he was a son. The youngest son of the Chairman of the Daeyang Group. grandson this time

– Son? At that time, how old were you? The president is 90 years old?

– He said that he was the son he gave birth to when he was 70 years old. because it’s funny

– Chairman of the Daeyang Group, you are amazing.

– But if you’re an industrial spy, do you go to jail?

– What is a prison? Did you see the family of the owner of a large corporation go to jail? At best, probation

– You don’t even know if it’s an industrial spy. To be honest, can’t we just ask each other?

– I’m bored. So, can couples just leak company secrets?

Among the posts, there were clearly some posts that were deliberately trying to cause a riot.

However, countless more articles criticized the immoral Daeyang and offered the opinion that they would boycott the products of Daeyang Group affiliates.

Even Eugene, reading it, couldn’t tell which article was posted by a subcontractor for Sejong’s publicity. Perhaps most of them were written by really angry people.

I don’t know about other problems, but trying to get married while hiding the fact that I was pregnant with someone else’s child was difficult for anyone to accept.

There was no excuse for it in that it was an order from a family member of a large corporation with bad intentions.

I was resting for a while, observing the reaction, when Sejong public relations officer Cheol-woo came to visit.

“Yeah, a lot of work today.”

“What is hard work? It’s all about putting the dishes you’ve made on the table.”

“There was a lot of commotion with the portal site and the news. It is thanks to the hard work in Sejong.”

“A riot is a riot. At least a week will be dominated by this.”

“A week?”

Even major incidents such as serial killers and child abuse tend to be erased from people’s minds within a week.

“Announcing investment in Korean ventures should be done around the weekend. We have to keep building so that the firewood doesn’t fall out.”

After Cheol-woo returned, he called Kim Hwan and Joanna to discuss what was going on.

“We have reduced the number of companies we invest in to 50.”

First, Kim Hwan reported.

“We’re going to announce the 1 trillion won investment confirmation this weekend, so can we finish the negotiations by then?”

“It’s the weekend, so time is running out.”

Kim Hwan said with a smile.

“But it’s not about attracting investment, it’s about making an investment, but it’s not going to happen. At least we will finish the MOU exchange. But 1 trillion won is a lot of money. haha.”

“okay. Don’t confirm, just finish the memorandum of understanding. Even that much will help each other. Joanna?”

“I checked out the businesses that the Daeyang Group is working on. The most important things right now are the acquisition of Samho Card and the acquisition of Max Convenience Store. It was amazing. What are Korean conglomerates? How is it possible to touch so many fields and constantly expand?”

“As the generations pass, there are more family members to take care of. If you have ten grandchildren, you need about ten businesses.”

“It’s hard to understand, but… If this is the case for Asian companies, then there is nothing we can do about it. Anyway, the Samho Card is a bit bigger than the Max. If the boss is involved, it would be good to put power on the Samho Card.”

“okay? It’s Max Convenience Store…”

Eugene traced what happened to Max’s convenience store around this time.

The war with the ocean is not over. Rather, it could be said that the real war began from the moment Eugene exploded it at the courthouse.

Upon arriving at the villa in Taean, Sunggyu took out strong whiskey from the decoration in the living room.

“How about dinner? I didn’t hear that you were coming, so I don’t have a cook right now…”

The old man in charge of the villa took some snacks from the refrigerator and brought them to Seong-gyu, bowing his head and asking.

“It’s dinner time. I just want to rest alone, so leave me alone. ah! And Mr. Kim, come in too. I’m going to be quiet for the time being, so don’t walk away until I call you.”

“Yes. I know. Then call me if you need anything.”

The manager said goodbye and left the villa.

“Woo…

Sunggyu roughly opened the lid of the whiskey bottle and poured it into a glass.

Just thinking about it makes me burn.

I’ve been struggling all the way down, but to no avail.

I don’t see any way to get through this hurdle.

“That bastard . . . won’t leave him alone. I······.”

Sunggyu’s eyes were burning with anger as he was emptying his drink, but there was nothing he could do.

Just emptying the whiskey over and over again.

How much time has passed?

The whiskey bottle was 1/3 empty, and Sunggyu’s face was a little loose.

But his anger did not subside even a little.

Rather, as time passed, his anger towards the man who had pushed him to such a corner was only growing.

It was when Sunggyu was pouring whiskey into the glass again.

A bell rings on the intercom in the living room.

Perhaps the guys who ordered her to come have arrived.

Sunggyu staggered slightly and got up from his seat.

Opening the front door and walking a fairly long distance to the gate, I regretted having sent Mr. Kim back.

Wouldn’t it be too late to send them back after they came?

not. No one can see her coming in.

As I walked to the gate, I was able to get some cool breeze and calm myself down a bit.

Sunggyu took a few deep breaths and opened the door.

However, the men waiting at the door were not what Sunggyu expected.

“Mr. Ryu Seong-gyu?”

asked the man in the jacket.

“Who are you?”

suddenly get drunk Are you a journalist?

“It’s the police. We are arresting Ryu Seong-gyu on charges of s*xual assault and kidnapping.”

The detective pulled out the handcuffs and put them roughly on Sunggyu’s hands.
