44 A Mole In The System (1/2)
After the delightful dinner, the trio thanked Minhyun one more time for the amazing opportunity. They all exchanged their goodbyes before the driver drove them back home.
Minhyun was picked up by his personal driver. When he entered, he noticed Secretary Kim at the back seat, organizing some files on his tablet. From the serious look on his face, Minhyun knew that there was a lot to talk about. Secretary Kim rarely sat at the back, out of respect for the CEO, unless there was an urgent matter to discuss.
Minhyun sat on the beige seat and crossed his legs. The happy smile on his face suddenly disappeared, replaced by his normal icy frown. ”What is the problem.”
”I believe you should see this,” Secretary Kim said. He pa.s.sed the tablet into Minhyun's hands.
Intel had made a report to outline the suspicious activities and reasons for the data delay In regards to the Moon group. While reading through the contents, Minhyun's eyes suddenly stopped in the middle. His fingers clenched, almost causing the screen to crack.
”This is all bulls.h.i.+t.”
Secretary Kim gulped. ”Yes, as you can see, a lot of the contents in the report don't align and seem to be bogus. Clearly, someone either tampered with the reports or a higher-up on the team is hiding something.”
”Is there anyone in intel we can trust?”
There was a pause. ”n.o.body is one hundred percent innocent but I do have two candidates. Currently, I had someone plant a few bugs inside the room in case of suspicious conversations. I will other use other measures to figure this situation out.”
”Okay,” Minhyun said. The atmosphere became heavy; gaze sharp as knifes. ”Get me everything by Sunday.”
”Yes, sir.”
Minhyun placed his palm against his head, trying to mend the growing headache. The mole was the last thing he wanted to deal with.
There were so many things to take care of; the mole, the company itself, the project with the restaurant, and the Moon group. This list excluded all events in his personal life. He had such limited time to handle so many cases.
Secretary Kim watched his superior with a sorrowfully. Minhyun was a perfectionist and strove to take the burden onto himself. From the calendar, Secretary Kim could already tell most hours were full of work. There was not even time to sleep.
”Sir, why don't you let the restaurant project be monitored by someone else? I am sure another higher-up would be happy to take your place,” Secretary Kim suggested.
Minhyun shook his head. ”I will not give this project to someone else, nor do I trust anyone else to handle this well.”
Although he wanted to protest, Secretary Kim knew what his boss was feeling. Though he didn't explicitly say it, he wanted to stay close to Yoona, despite his busy schedule. This was the only way.
The other projects could not be handed to someone else since they were on a larger scale. Plus, after the mole appeared, it was clear that the system was infiltrated and enemies lurking behind the scenes. They had to be careful. Important events had to be left to the president.
There was a lot of work to be done.
