Chapter 92
“Lately, it seems like the CEO’s mood has been easily disturbed... don’t you think?”
“I can’t exactly deny that.”
That morning. Even Yoon Taeo—who was usually unable to distinguish people—could tell the driver was a stranger. It was clear he wasn’t Kang Seokho, who was excluded from work, nor anyone from Security Team 3. He was one of the eyes and ears of the Chief Secretary scattered all around. The story about what had happened in the car on the way to work had definitely reached the Chief Secretary.
“But leave it for now. If it needs sorting out, I’ll handle it myself.”
“Still...”
“Stop. I said, I’ll do it myself.”
The persistent words slightly broke his composure. Baek Sieon’s attempt to act completely worthless had failed. Before more suspicion arose, he had to steer the conversation away.
“...Still, the Chief Secretary’s point makes some sense.”
“Excuse me...?”
“It’s nothing. More importantly, you’ve been in the bathroom too long. Should we check? I’m worried.”
When Taeo’s attention turned to Choi Hyunjin, who had left the room, the Chief Secretary silently exited. If only a little longer could be endured, he could clear away all the annoying things at once—but that ‘little’ was extremely irritating. However, from the conversation with the Chief Secretary, an unintended good idea came to him.
If persuasion doesn’t work, another method can be used. His endlessly sinking mood seemed to lift a bit.
