Chapter 124

Words : 2366 Updated : Jun 24th, 2025
Kwonseonjingak Project. “Let’s get married.” It was a terrible nightmare. Perhaps thanks to the publication of Han Chae-won’s book, I dreamed of myself in the past, kneeling and proposing to her with a bouquet. ‘No. Don’t do it.’ ‘This isn’t it.’ ‘You want to ruin my life!’ Even when she calls her desperately, she smiles brightly and proposes to Han Chae-won. “Marry me. Chae Won. I’ll make you happy!” His bright face was full of dreams and hopes. At this time, I was beaten enough to be beaten by Han Chae-won, but I was an immature person who didn’t even know what it was because it was my first relationship. Looking at it from a third person’s point of view, it feels like a mixture of idiots and hogs. ‘Hey. You crazy bastard! stop.’ ‘Throw away the bouquet.’ ‘It’s not too late now. Run into the driveway, I’m not hurt enough to die.’ How much did you scream in pain? I woke up with my body drenched in sweat. Seeing that it was a hotel room in New York, I let out a sigh of relief. A royal suite with a comfortable and fluffy wide bed, a terrace where you can see the night view, and a bar with high-quality drinks. “ah… … . The aftereffects of this are terrible.” I opened a can of beer from the refrigerator and drank it. Quite a few memories were bound to become beautified over time. I read Han Chae-won’s manuscript for no reason, and the past came to my mind again. Living freely, I realize how hellish those days were. Taking advantage of the rise in stock prices, he disposed of stocks on a large scale and proceeded with the acquisition of the New York Mets. Purchase price $2.6 billion. It’s over 3 trillion won in Hanhwa, and it’s an amount that can buy a whole small business. “Older brother. Are you going to give me full power to negotiate?” “Okay.” “A takeover of a major league club?” “You should experience this too.” When I brought Lee Jong-yeop from Korea as my secretary, I didn’t have high expectations. I thought it would be a good fit because I was a subordinate at Arcor. Even if my skills were lacking or I couldn’t adapt, I thought of helping out with loyalty. Lee Jong-yeop did a good job beyond the salary he received. ‘It’s not like I can do a better job of acquiring a major league club.’ I can leave the things I am not good at to the people around me. Lee Jong-yeop, the Boston Consulting Group, and the Wilpon family had a tense tug-of-war. In the end, the sale price and conditions were the problem, and the contract was terminated at $2.53 billion by negotiating the desired parts. “I hope to go along well.” “Yes. We will make a good team.” I attended the takeover of the Mets club, and more than 300 reporters gathered. Rather than purely taking over a sports club, Han Chae-won’s book was causing a sensation. 〈The New York Times’ Best Sellers in the Second Half of 2020〉 〈The reality of an amazing married life〉 〈Kim Shin, who became the 4th richest man in the world after his divorce〉 Because the articles were running out endlessly. Thanks to this, we had to change the location of the press conference to a wider location and limit the number of reporters to two per media outlet. “What are the Mets’ plans for the future?” A question from a sports reporter. Being a baseball fan, I was very interested. “I plan to continue investing in the Mets. A club that develops good players. I want to create a club that is loved by fans.” Honestly, it was a model answer that I memorized. I didn’t have much interest in baseball, so even if my grades fell, I had no intention of cutting the general manager or manager or getting involved in player recruitment. I know how the owner’s tyranny ruins a sports team, but I don’t have much interest in baseball. Even so, I wanted to make the Mets a prestigious club. Did Oh Myung-woo say that he was envious of being able to enjoy the game of running a baseball or soccer team in real life? “I see!” “It’s from Fox News. I have a question.” When it was their turn to ask the next question, the reporters raised their hands in unison. He pointed at one of the reporters, roughly guessing what question would be asked. “Yes. Please tell me.” “This is Tom Karen from ABC. A book about my past marriage was published. Are the contents of the book unilateral claims of the ex-wife? Or is it based on facts?” “Whoa.” Perhaps, I thought that broadcasters around the world would take advantage of this moment. Still, you’ll have to answer. “I haven’t read all the books. There must be quite a few incidents that I forgot about during my married life. But as far as I know, most of the contents of the book are true.” Papababat! At that moment, camera flashes exploded. I was asked the following question, and I gave it to a reporter from the Wall Street Journal. “This is Matthew Barkley of the Wall Street Journal. I’m sorry, but there is a part in the book where you say that you are happiest when you do the dishes and that you want to divorce.” “Yes. I remember that.” It was an unforgettable event. I think I said it while shedding tears over how sad it was. “In Korea, there is a word, pong pong an,m, that compares washing dishes. Is it true that living in Pong Pong Nam was the happiest time in your married life?” “… … .” I never thought Han Chae-won’s book would have such a ripple effect. If you don’t answer, the topic will become even bigger. Moreover, when this happened, I just wanted to be honest. “Do you know how much fun washing dishes is?” “Yes?” “I had the small pleasure of cooking, eating delicious food, and wiping the dishes clean.” Rather than being nagged at by Han Chae-won, it was much more fun to wash the dishes for two hours with a housewife’s eczema-stricken hands. I even felt pleasure. The feeling of putting detergent on an oily bowl and wiping it with your hands until it makes a soft sound. I would say it was a little healing in my married life. Now that he escaped, it remained only as a memory. The reason why the movie The Shawshank Redemption is a masterpiece is that the main character eventually succeeded in escaping from prison. “I think everyone has hard times in life. It’s just that my marriage to him didn’t suit me. Today, we have acquired a major league club with a great history. From now on, I want you to only ask questions about sports.” After drawing the line, fortunately, the stories about the Mets were the main ones. ―The Earth Channel is now broadcasting the Mets' takeover live hahaha ―Have you heard the answer? It’s a big deal. ―The hyung who dreamed of becoming a Pong Pong Nam. ―How simple was your life before you started earning money? -Tears won’t stop. Lee Jong-yeop watched Kim Shin’s interview from the side and confirmed the community’s reaction. ‘As expected, the public praises my older brother.’ Kim Shin didn’t seem to hate Han Chae-won. I feel so bad that I don’t even want to go near it. ‘But I can’t just leave it alone. I can’t forgive Han Chae-won.’ Lee Jong-yeop did not forget Kim Shin, who reached out to him and gave him a chance. Acquiring the Mets club accumulated experience and knowledge. A high salary is good, but isn’t a person growing by taking on these jobs one by one? Han Chae-won also became a celebrity and would receive media attention, so illegal revenge could be difficult. However, legal revenge was the law that destroyed more people. ―Lee Jong-yeop: Are you paying royalties to Han Chae-won well? -Rel: Yes, of course. As you said, it is being settled like a knife. I had someone attached to Han Chae-won and received regular reports. We obtained information that she shopped for luxury goods at a department store and even signed a contract for an apartment in Gangnam. ‘Everyone has a different way of living when they have a lot of money.’ Kim Shin, who was a dirt spoon among dirt spoons, was afraid to spend money even though he had a huge fortune. Even canned coffee would be looking for promotional products. These days, I use it when I need to spend it boldly, but I still think carefully every time I spend money. But most people don’t do that when they have a lot of money. They spend it relentlessly as if to relieve the longing that they have not been able to spend money until now. It is not uncommon for a lottery winner to go bankrupt. ‘Han Chae-won is the type to spend money without hesitation.’ Then there were any number of legitimate ways to get revenge on her. ―Lee Jong-yeop: Sign a contract for the next book. ―Lel: The next book? ―Lee Jong-yeop: He is a person who is enough to worry about while publishing the second and third books in a row, with his marriage to CEO Kim Shin. I knew the taste of money, but there was no way I would quit. ―Lee Jong-yeop: Sign a contract before other publishers approach you. ―Rel: She’s a greedy woman, so she’ll ask for a lot of down payment. -Lee Jong-yeop: That’s right. Please give me plenty. The biggest reason Han Chae-won was so vicious towards Kim Shin was one thing. Money. Because she married Kim Shin, who had no money, she looked down on her and constantly bullied her. Lee Jong-yeop liked the story of good luck and punishment the most in children’s books. ‘It should be destroyed with money.’ No one hated Jo Soo-ah as much as Han Chae-won and was jealous. From the time Han Chae-won started dating Kim Shin, she blamed herself for not having the courage. Nevertheless, when the two got married, he generously wished them happiness. “Have a good life. Seniors.” “Yes. Thank you.” At the wedding hall, seeing Kim Shin, who smiled brightly and thanked him, she quietly shed tears. It was hard to go to Arkor, but even so, I couldn’t get my heart off of Kim Shin. ‘I can’t like you anymore. He’s someone I shouldn’t like.’ And the two divorced. I felt sorry for Kim Shin’s misfortune, but thanks to him, I was able to get closer little by little. A few days ago, I heard that Han Chae-won published a book about her married life with Kim Shin. “Han Chae-won. I knew it was really bad. But I didn’t know you were such a wicked woman.” “Yes?” “You didn’t hear Mr. Sua. Rumors about Han Chae-won’s personality spread widely among our female employees.” Lee Min-young is in the secretary’s office. One of the most beautiful women in Arkor informed Jo Soo-ah on the roof. “Han Chae-won left the company and published a book with an American publisher.” “Really?” “Yes. It sold hugely in the US. It is the same in Korea.” “Did you?” Jo Soo-ah could not read the book written by Han Chae-won even after hearing the news. When I read the book she wrote, I thought it would hurt my heart, and I thought I would be very envious of living with Kim Shin. “Han Chae-won. It’s not normal.” “I hate having to work with someone like that.” “My mother said so. Have you been close to Han Chae-won? I said no.” “I don’t think I’ll be able to go on a blind date because I’m an Arkor employee.” The story spread widely among the female employees. Jo Soo-ah stood still with an iced Americano. “Didn’t Sua read the book?” “Yes.” “I read everything. Shall I give it to you?” Lee Min-yeong of the secretary’s office gave her a book. From the cover, Han Chae-won was posing as a model with her hand on her waist. “Yes. I will read it.” I went back to my office and opened the bookshelf with a pounding heart. I thought of just skimming through the contents and returning the book to Lee Min-young. Page 1, page 2, page 3…. I couldn’t close the book. ‘Was Han Chae-won this kind of person?’ I felt so sorry and sorry for Kim Shin, who must have felt even greater loneliness after getting married. How good it would have been if I had had a little courage. ―Jo Soo-ah: Please take good care of my brother. ―Lee Jong-yeop: I am doing that. Brother is doing well. Kakao talk with Lee Jong-yeop in the US. I heard news of Kim Shin while contacting him from time to time. ―Jo Soo-ah: Aren’t you suffering because of Han Chae-won’s books? ―Lee Jong-yeop: It’s a pity that I couldn’t go to a delicious hamburger restaurant in New York, but emotionally, I feel like I’ve almost overcome it. ―Joshua: Is that so? ―Lee Jong-yeop: Han Chae-won is too terrible for me to remain attached to her because she is my ex-wife. Haha, this is heaven now. – Jo Soo-ah: I’m glad. Jo Soo-ah hesitated for a moment, then sent a text message. ―Sua Jo: Can I go to America? I can just look at your face for a moment. It was a carefully sent text message, but the reply came right away. ―Lee Jong-yeop: Are you going to meet your brother? Hyung-nim will be happy to see Su-ah. ―Joshua: Really? Jo Soo-ah felt her heart beat as she read the text message.
