"Damn, it smells like shit." Eunho muttered, lying on the bed. How was he supposed to live here? The pillow, the blanket, everything smelled like Choi Yeorok, making him feel watched even when he wasn't there. He quickly got up and walked to the window. He parted the curtains and secretly scanned the scenery outside. He saw bodyguards stationed around the mansion. Hours had passed, but nothing had changed since he first saw them. There was no way out. Eunho exhaled his frustration and kicked the…- 240.1 K • Completed
- The bright sunlight made his eyes open on their own. Eunho frowned and woke up to find himself moved to the mansion without even realizing it. And this was Choi Yeorok's bedroom. Instantly, a sense of emptiness washed over him, and he quickly kicked off the bed. As he opened the door and stepped out, Yeorok blocked his path. He looked as neat and tidy as ever. "Did you sleep well? How's your headache?" Eunho glared at him. The very fact that Choi Yeorok was asking how he was made him…

- There was no sign of anyone in the annex. It was dark and desolate. Yeorok looked around the house, then went upstairs. Even on the second floor, the stillness was the same. His slow steps led him to one specific place as if he already knew where to go. Dim light leaked through the crack under Eunho’s closed door. Yeorok stopped in front of it. He was about to knock but instead turned the doorknob. When he stepped inside, the familiar room felt strangely foreign. Nothing had actually changed, yet…

- Yeorok’s hair bristled all the way down to his scalp. This wasn’t Sim Eunho. From the outer shell to the very core, everything in front of him was his nephew. He froze in place as Eunho kicked his chair back and stood up. He slowly walked towards Yeorok. Eunho leaned on one leg and looked him up and down. When their eyes met, the corners of his lips, which had always shown a gentle smile, split into a fierce grin. “I heard you’re the one who threw me in here, uncle. How could you do…

- After finishing the press conference, Yeorok headed for Incheon Airport. About eight hours had passed since Eunho had left first. He went through departure procedures and boarded his flight. After a full fourteen hours of travel, he arrived at Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport. While crossing the jet bridge, Yeorok immediately called Eunho. He had told Eunho to contact him when he arrived, but their flight times overlapped, and they missed each other. Eunho would understand the situation, but even then,…

- Eunho covered his face and burst out laughing. Tears trickled down his palms. He was on the verge of going crazy. Despair, tears and laughter erupted simultaneously. “Until when?” “…There’s no set period.” “Ah, I might be locked up until I die.” For Choi Yoonho, it was enough reason to stay isolated for a lifetime. He’d only harmed people, so the ones who locked him up would want “Choi Yoonho” to stay inside as long as possible. Eunho realized his situation and laughed…

- “I guess you were really looking forward to it.” “Chairman will be there soon, right?” “I promised you. I said I’d spend my whole week with you, Sim Eunho-ssi.” Yeorok still had work to finish and was planning to leave on an evening flight. He was a little worried about sending Eunho to France alone, but Eunho was an adult and had flown before. He couldn’t treat him like a child left to fend for himself. “You did well today. You must’ve been nervous, so get some rest when…

- “……” Yeorok spent a long time reading the document in his hand. The contract was completely nullified. The weight on his shoulders was finally gone. Now that everything was settled, his resolve to keep Eunho with him for the rest of his life only grew stronger. Yeorok put the contract, a reminder of his past choices and his flaws, back into the envelope and sealed it deep inside the drawer. Knock knock. A small knock came from outside the study. He softly smiled as he recognized…

- Just because it's your birthday doesn't mean you'll wake up to a special world. From Eunho's experience, it's just another ordinary day. But today was different. The first thing Eunho saw upon waking was seven stacked boxes on the carpet. Each box, varying in size, was tied with a pink satin ribbon. Anyone could tell they were birthday presents. Eunho got out of bed and kneeled in front of the boxes. His hair was a mess, his face puffy, but the drowsiness had completely vanished. His heart even…

- Choi Yeorok was so busy he couldn’t catch his breath. Meetings with shareholders who had voting rights and with the heads of Haegang Group’s affiliates became frequent. He also needed to handle the external duties he already had. Just like he warned, it became hard to even see his face at home. When the trust ended, Yeorok would get all the shares Chairman Choi left behind. It meant he’d become the official owner who led Haegang. After Chairman Choi passed away, the position of Haegang’s head…
