“Bocchan. The president is calling.”

Facing Dokgojin’s aide, Dokgojeong’s face turned white. It was all the more so because Dokgo-jin had already grasped the situation before the story of the knight reached his ears.

“Are you very angry?”

“Let’s go.”

“You must have been very angry.”

Calling me before I even recovered from the PTSD I had from getting beaten up the other day. It was like pushing the head into the jaws of a tiger.

Even though I knew with my head that I had to go, cold sweat ran down my forehead and my feet wouldn’t come off.

His entourage and his subordinates surrounded Dokgojeong. The bodyguards hired by Dok-go-jeong swallowed and looked at Dok-go-jeong.

The opponent was hired by the group president, so I didn’t want to fight as much as possible.

“Can I help you if you’re having trouble moving?”

“Go home… stop by the house and go.”

“He told me to bring him right away.”

“Let’s go home and go.”

Dokgojeong glared at her aides with poisonous eyes. I wanted to leave my seat because of my temper, but I couldn’t if my father had sent me.

The phone screen in his hand was constantly pouring provocative articles.

‘Damn it. Even if it wasn’t just him.’

It was Kim Jae-goo’s interview that became the catalyst for this. He revealed that he had framed him in Dokgo Commerce, and as the words continued to add to it, the arrow eventually went back to the Dokgo Group.

It looked like that in the eyes of Dok-go-jeong, who did not know that Kim Jae-gu even hired someone to manipulate public opinion.

‘I’m crazy. Crazy.’

Seo Eun-chae, no, she did it on her own to get Dok Go-hyeok, the son she was pregnant with, but I couldn’t help but hate her now that the situation was like this.

‘Hyuk!’

Dok Go-hyeok is the only grandson his father, who has no blood or tears, loves. That was all he had left.

“If you don’t come home, you’ll be prepared for war.”

When Dok-go-jeong beckoned, the bodyguards stepped forward with nervous expressions. Although their skills were not comparable to Dokgo Jin’s aides, they were also professionals in their own right.

The aide looked at them with an expressionless face for a while, then opened his mouth.

“I’ll give you just five minutes.”

“That’s enough.”

Dok-go-jeong stood up from her seat with staggering legs.

The reason why he took the risk and seated Seo Eun-chae as his wife. I felt like I would die if my father didn’t take his cute grandson, Dok Go-hyeok.

Dok-go-jeong arrived home in the car of her aides. Usually, the attendants would have opened the door, but now, since they were separated from them, he opened the door himself and entered.

A hired man who was tidying up the yard came running.

“Is the boss here?”

“What about Eunchae?”

“My wife went out to work for a while.”

He went out to withdraw the child support payments for Kim Jae-gu, but he did not know because it was a secret work.

‘Seobang is having such a hard time, so why don’t we throw the kids away and go out to play?’

If it was in front of my eyes, I would have wanted to put a fight on it.

“Four minutes left.”

I was blown away.

“Where is Hyuk?”

“Bocchan will be in his room. Shall I bring him?”

The old man had a messy look from tidying the yard just before. After washing my hands and changing my clothes, it seemed that 4 minutes would disappear without a mouse or a bird.

“It’s okay. It’s on the second floor, right?”

“Yes. Boss.”

Dok Go-jeong strode into Dok Go-hyeok’s room. When the door burst open, the housekeeper who had been dozing while watching the child jumped up.

“Sa… boss. Hello.”

Damn! Stars twinkled in front of the housekeeper’s eyes, and when she came to her senses, she was lying on the floor. Her cheeks tingled like they were on fire.

“Where do you sleep?”

“sorry!”

The housekeeper lowered her head, swallowing the tears along with the fishy blood in her mouth. There is no excuse for not getting a good night’s sleep the night before because your child struggles to sleep.

Dok-go-jeong took the child. Dok Go-hyeok burst into tears as his head fell back due to the violent lifting.

“Ahhh.”

“Crying because she looks like Ji Ami.”

The housekeeper hurried to the child.

“Sa… I’ll take care of you, boss.”

“It will be soon.”

When Dok-go-jeong roughly handed over the child, the housekeeper stumbled and accepted the child. She patted and froze the crying child.

“You’re kind, Bocchan. It’s okay.”

“It hurts. It hurts.”

The child burst into tears and cried as she was held by the housekeeper. It was more familiar than my mother’s.

“Follow me quickly.”

Dokgojeong’s legs continued to tremble as she headed toward her father’s mansion. It was because I was so nervous that I couldn’t bear to do anything.

The people sitting next to him didn’t say anything about it, which made him even more nervous.

The car with the docking station passed the gate and the yard and stopped in front of the front door. An employee opened the door.

“He’s waiting for you in the study.”

Dokgojeong raised her head and looked at the mansion. It seemed as if a huge building was looking down on him. The place that used to be a place of memories from childhood, now looked like a mouth of hell.

The housekeeper brought the child down carefully.

“Come here.”

Dokgojeong snatched Dokgohyeok from the housekeeper. This time, it was a little cautious gesture so as not to cry. However, the sensitive child felt unfamiliar and cried.

“don’t cry!”

An aide who couldn’t see it opened his mouth.

“Leave the little boy in charge.”

“it’s okay.”

Dok-go-jeong pushed her entourage into the mansion. There was no order to take the grandson, so I let it be. It would be a big deal if I accidentally touched it and hurt myself.

When he arrived at the study with a child in his arms, which was out of place, the guard who was waiting opened the door.

‘Did you even call the bodyguard?’

The back of the bone gave way and the hair became soft. Perhaps feeling the strange atmosphere, the child also closed his mouth and looked around.

“Why are you so late!”

As soon as I entered, Dokgo-jin yelled at me with such a force that I thought I would tear him to death at any moment.

“Grandpa…”

Tears welled up in Dok Go-hyeok’s eyes when he saw his grandfather’s terrifying appearance for the first time. A look of bewilderment appeared on Dokgo-jin’s face when he found him. As he softened his expression, the child sniffed.

“Let the child go.”

“Ha… He said he wanted to meet Grandpa.”

Dok-go-jeong instinctively felt it. That without Dok Go-hyeok, he would be beaten more.

“Ugly bastard. Using my son as a shield?”

‘A father beats his son bloody.’

The place where I was hit last time was throbbing.

“Hyuk, let’s go to Grandpa.”

Dokgo Jin’s expression changed to that of a benevolent grandfather. As he pulled candy out of his pocket, the child reached for him.

“candy!”

Dok-go-jeong put the child down on the floor. When the child toddled to Dokgo-jin, he lifted the child up and headed for the back door.

“Father. Where are you going?”

Dok-go-jeong, who belatedly realized that the child had been taken away, hurriedly followed.

At Dokgojin’s gesture, the bodyguards grabbed Dokgojeong and covered their mouths. Dokgo Jin very naturally gave the child candy and distracted him.

He went out the back door and turned the child over to his employer.

“Go and get me something delicious.”

“Yes. Chairman.”

The child glanced at her grandfather, but soon looked away when she noticed the snack the employee was holding.

Meanwhile, the door to the library was closed.

bang.

There was no leaking sound in the study, which was triple-insulated.

***

Seo Eun-chae, who arrived at the property, was negotiating to reduce the deposit by persuading the landlord. She just said she wanted to reduce the deposit, although the actual negotiations were done by a real estate agent.

“If you reduce your deposit, you have to take out a loan, so you have to increase your monthly rent.”

In a word, it meant raising the rent higher than the market price.

Seo Eun-chae bit her lip.

“Please do it anyway.”

‘I mustn’t tarnish the name of Dokgo Group.’

Even now, I was in a situation where I was barely sticking with my eyes. Fortunately, the son, who looked just like him and looked cute, was loved by his grandfather, Dokgo-jin.

If he hadn’t, he would have been kicked out already.

‘no. I wouldn’t have been able to get married.’

Dokgo-jin was a man who could knock people down if they wanted to. Not long ago, when I saw Dok-go-jeong, who came in with a broken body, I felt it.

In a situation where Dokgo-jeong is being filmed by Dokgo-jin, if the child support lawsuit gains public attention, just thinking about it made me dizzy.

Her own son is also a person who beats like a dog, but what about a daughter-in-law who has no backbone to tarnish the family’s honor?

So I had to somehow shut up Kim Jae-goo by sending child support.

‘Fortunately, 3 million won is not that big of money.’

It wasn’t bad as a deal to protect the reputation of Dokgo Group’s third daughter-in-law.

The real estate agent handed out the newly drawn up contract.

“Then, since both parties have agreed, we will rewrite the contract.”

Instead of taking out more than half of the deposit, the monthly rent was doubled.

‘Still, with this money, I can last for two years.’

I had enough money to pay child support and rent for two years. She immediately went to the bank and transferred 3 million won to Kim Jae-gu’s account.

[I sent child support this month]

I didn’t get a reply, but since I sent it, there won’t be much trouble.

‘Shall we go shopping after a long time?’

When I held the money in my hand, my hand itched. As Dokgo Commerce repeatedly suffered losses due to Chicken Race, I couldn’t buy a new bag for the past few months.

‘If not at this time, when would I buy it?’

Seo Eun-chae hummed and headed to the department store.

***

3 million won in child support came into the bank account.

‘Do you drag something that can be sent so quickly?’

I thought there would be a lawsuit and a mud fight, but seeing that she immediately lowered her tail when she said she would report it to the media, it seems that Eun-chae Seo had a lot to lose.

‘That is that and this is this.’

The Koryo Ilbo, a major media outlet, requested an interview. He asked me to tell him in detail about his experience of being imprisoned because of Dokgo Group.

‘Of course I have to agree.’

I bought a suitable suit at an outlet and put it on, in case I felt uncomfortable if I looked like I was living too well. It was definitely frustrating to wear, but this was more commonplace.

‘Isn’t that overdoing it?’

However, if embezzlers appear in the media wearing nice clothes, don’t they think that they can eat well and live well with the embezzlement money?

I had never seen the money with my hand on my conscience.

“Are you ready?”

“Yes. I’m ready.”

“Maybe it’s because I have good skin, so my make-up goes well. Why don’t you just do a mosaic?”

“Mosaic please.”

“That’s too bad.”

The time when I acted as if I would lose my liver at a single compliment is now over.

“But this person…”

The makeup artist looked at Jaffrey and was nervous. When Jaffrey glanced at her with an expressionless face, she averted her gaze and shrank.

“My friends.”

Next to Jeffrey, the crew of the CBS broadcasting station ‘I Want to Know It’ was with a hidden camera. I gave money to an internet media company and contacted the obtained number to ask for cooperation in filming.

‘Because the Koryo Ilbo is one of the trumpeters of the Dokgo Group.’

Calling me from such a place, no matter how much I think about it, couldn’t have been good intentions.

The things going on here were going to be filmed and broadcast through CBS I Want to Know It. The subject was ‘I, a man who was unfairly imprisoned for two years due to a conglomerate’s scheme’.

“Even if I have a meal after work today…”

“It’s over. You can go into the studio.”

Thanks to the production team’s nice assist, the makeup artist left with her face stiffened.

“thank you.”

I smiled at her once and went into the office. A well-dressed reporter got up from his seat and came out to meet me.

“welcome.”

“i look forward to.”

“I’m asking you to take good care of me.”

I sat diagonally with her on the sofa in the sunny office. The cameraman pointed the camera at us. A reporter looked at him and asked.

“Shall we start?”

The cameraman nodded and the interview with the reporter began. She checked my mic and opened her mouth.

“I heard that the informant went to prison after being falsely accused of embezzlement. Is that correct?”

“Yes. That’s right. I’ve been imprisoned for embezzling money I never touched.”

“The informant said that he had never touched the money, but wasn’t he in charge of the budget at Kangmyeong Moolsan?

The reporter’s eyes shone strangely.

‘I knew it would be like this.’

The reporter looked at me with a proud face as if he had accomplished something.

“There seems to be a contradiction in the informant’s words.”

“It would have been if the money went into my bank account. But I wasn’t the owner of the bank account the money flowed into.”

“How do you assert that?”

“I know because I found the owner.”

The reporter looked at me with surprised eyes.

Did you think I wouldn’t have done a background check?

“Would you like to know who it is?”

“Who are you?”

“Do you know that I am Han Min-jae, general manager of Gangmyeong Products? Ah. I am Han Min-jae, managing director now.”

“Do you have any proof?”

“I have, but I won’t show you here.”

Where are you going to eat someone else’s evidence with your bare mouth?

“Isn’t it possible that the informant fabricated the evidence?”

It must be an attempt to induce a slip of the tongue with baseless accusations. And if they get caught, they will write a fabricated article based on that.

But what about this?

the words you say

The production team of ‘I Want to Know That’ is filming.

The crew was looking at the reporter with a serious face.
