I took a deep breath and exhaled Perhaps it was because of the incident, but the air up here felt different from the lower floors A heavy at it seem like I shouldn’t breathe heavily
I saw a few familiar faces in front of the CEO’s office PR Teao in, and the balding ement business director next to her
Sung Dowon’s er, who I had met last time, had his head down like a sinner
Then did thisDowon had already arrived?
“Hey You…”
The director let out a big sigh that seeround
“Just how are to et into this kind of trouble?”
“I-I ao home first…”
“So you just let hio and you went home by yourself?!”
“He said it was a private party with a few close acquaintances… I-I really didn’t knoas that kind of party…”
As if he couldn’t handle this situation, Sung Dowon’sHis face was already deadly pale
“Director Team Leader Park”
“Huh?”
As we approached, the director became surprised
“Why’d you co to let everyone know?”
“That’s not it…”
When Kim Hyunjo transmitted what I said to the director, his eyes shi+ned
“It was a bastard from Pure Star Entertainment?”
“Yes I thought it would be good if I told you so I brought him here”
“Pure Star…”
The director pondered
“Seems a bit suspicious, doesn’t it?”
“Very Director should knoell That company is a bit…”
“Wait for a bit”
The director knocked on the office door and went in I saw a few faces as the door quickly opened and closed
Twosuits, one was the beardedsat with an incomprehensible expression
And Sung Dowon
He always had a bright, gentle smile on his face, but it was currently stiff like a rock
“Haa…”
As soon as the director entered the office, Sung Dowon’shis hair
Both sides looked like they were about to collapse
“It looks like the legal tea to file a lawsuit?”
When Kim Hyunjo asked Team Leader Park, she tilted her head
“I don’t know”
Now that I thought about it, there were no talks about W&U filing a lawsuit against the anonymous man in the future
Why?
Even if Song Doas a nationally recognized celebrity, taking a picture without per, weren’t these crih to shut him down? There were plenty of times when Hollywood actors would sue the paparazzi If they just filed a lawsuit against them before the incident exploded…
“If we file a lawsuit, there will probably be quite a feill rush here trying to dig soets out, we have so much to lose”
“Then…”
“If we can stop hi him money, this will probably be the best”
Ah, so that was how they sunk deeper into the depths of despair
A few minutes that felt like hours passed and just then, the office door opened
Then the director pointed at me
“Jung Sunwoo”
“Yes?”
“The CEO wants to hear your story personally… so come in”
The door of the office was opened wide
“There’s no need to be nervous Just tell us what you heard”
Ki my back
The hts went throughwas settled well, the recognition from the company, a raise, a bonus, froes I would receive if it failed to go the way I iined
Either way, the door was opened and I entered the office
Thud
Team Leader Park who followed in behind me closed the door
When I lifted my head, everyone inside the roo Dowon and the bearded man, they seemed to bore holes in me with their stares
“I aement Team 3”
I clearedcalm Of course, my mind wasn’t calm at all
No uilty feelings, their hearts would probably freeze
What was really fortunate was that I saw the photo on top of the table
The photo evidence was both the trigger and the key to solving this incident
Figuring out I was looking at the photo, the bearded man flipped it over, but it was already after I had examined it
It was because reatly after I got ht ability
Sung Dowon and a woman, whose identity was covered by a mosaic, were captured in the photo and the coht
“What did the Pure Star Entertainer say?”
CEO Baek Hansung was aly calm even in this situation
I tried to answer as calmly as possible
“He asked if ‘those unethical bastards at W&U teach you to work that way? You’ll wake up to your senses after being stabbed in the back’”
I supplemented what I said to Kim Hyunjo before
They say people get better at lying thefrom my mouth
“You don’t have any more than that?”
“Yes Only… now that I think about it, it see up their sleeves”
CEO Baek Hansung fell into a state of deep thought for avoice
“Hey If there was so fishy, you should have reported to us immediately Did you not know that our relationshi+p with theood since Dowon left his contract with them for us?”
“That round There were ruht that he was trying toreally happened to Sung Dowon, then I thought I should let you know… I a you so late”
“No”
The director shook his head
“It only seems like this because this incident occurred It was normal for you to think that way back then”
“Anyways…Pure Star Entertainment are bastards who could do this and even sters over there”
“It’s only a belief, we aren’t certain”
