And that wasn’t all. He wavered without any standards.
At Ji-an’s every word and every expression, Tae-jun’s heart swayed back and forth.
And when he looked at her, he kept wanting things that weren’t in his original plans.
It was the same now. The professional interpreter stationed at the hospital kept lingering in his mind.
And his thoughts naturally expanded toward the foundation’s projects.
Realistically, employing permanent staff that included multiple languages and even sign language wasn’t easy.
Not just personnel supply, but schedule gaps, scope of responsibility, security training, medical information access rights – even for Hanyeong Hospital, it would be too much.
But reinforcing the medical video interpretation app would be entirely possible.
If they distributed more dedicated terminals or tablets, on-site response would be faster. Since automatic translation has its limits, some could be linked with volunteers.
If they developed a dedicated app, they’d need to consider medical information protection, servers, logs, and if it was truly for public benefit to help with medical care, the design would need to be thorough.
Before he knew it, he was calculating far into the future through watching Ji-an work.
His heart grew urgent as he pressed the accelerator and increased speed.
The more he loved, the more new challenges not in his plans kept increasing.
Tae-jun was a businessman. He had run forward prioritizing direct profit and efficiency.
But after meeting Ji-an, stepping into the foundation, he was now thinking about social contribution.
As the things he started for her gathered one by one, a new path revealed itself in his life.
That feeling was quite wonderful, and Tae-jun’s chest swelled with emotion.
More than any project he had ever succeeded with, at this moment he was most filled with determination.
“Should I check medical law instead of dinner tonight?”
He drove through the sparkling night rain, lost in serious thought.
He didn’t know then.
That the rain tickling the car window would soon turn into a massive downpour.
***
A newly uploaded Hanyeong Hospital promotional video played on the tablet.
-When the heart stops, you must force blood circulation through chest compressions. A real person’s body is much firmer than practice dummies. So you need to compress with a stronger, faster rhythm, and deeply. The most important thing is to never stop in the middle.
Hong Ji-an began demonstrating CPR on the dummy herself.
All the comments were full of praise, and the view count kept rising.
“Aaaahhh!”
Bo-kyung screamed in rage and threw the tablet.
She’d already been stuck at the Incheon villa for a week.
No matter how much she drank, she couldn’t sleep at all.
“I’m suffocating! I’m suffocating!”
The sticky rain didn’t stop until night, and all her planned affairs had no news whatsoever.
While Father was handling the hospital director, she had planned to deal with Hong Ji-an directly.
She had been confident. She was already executing her plan.
But when the nurse she bribed failed to steal the fentanyl, everything went wrong.
“Why! Why is it so quiet?”
It was frustrating.
By now, whether on bulletin boards, resident group chats, or anywhere, rumors about Hong Ji-an should have been circulating.
But it was too quiet. No matter how much she searched, there were no traces anywhere.
Instead, new videos were uploaded to the hospital channel, making Hong Ji-an’s popularity even higher.
“That was my position. It was all mine!”
She was so angry she couldn’t stand it.
Seo Tae-jun, the promotional model position, and all that envy and praise in the comments.
Originally, it should have all been hers.
“I could have done better! I could have done more! Ahhh!”
She screamed frantically in excitement. But all that returned was an empty echo.
“Hah. This is driving me crazy. What the hell is Father doing?”
How long did she have to wait stuck here?
Surviving on delivery food and alcohol had its limits too.
She didn’t want to be stuck in this countryside villa anymore.
“This won’t do. I have to go see for myself.”
Just as she staggered to her feet to check with her own eyes.
Ring ring! Ring ring!
Her quiet phone finally rang.
Seeing Father’s name on the screen, Bo-kyung grabbed the phone feeling like her drunkenness was instantly clearing.
“Father? Is it resolved? Can I go to Seoul now?”
Father’s voice flowed out low and cold.
-Go stay at your cousin’s house in Russia for a while.
“What? Russia?”
Father had said he’d solve it if she stayed quiet, keeping her stuck at the villa.
But now, knowing she absolutely hated the cold, he was exiling her to Russia.
Bo-kyung absolutely couldn’t accept it and screamed.
“No! Why should I go to that wasteland?”
-I told you to stay put! So why did you interfere?
“What did I do?”
-You bribed a nurse to steal drugs from the emergency room, didn’t you?
“How, how did you know that?”
-Seo Tae-jun caught that nurse. It’s only a matter of time before your name comes up!
Damn, she got caught.
She had already sensed things were going wrong.
But Bo-kyung wasn’t afraid at all. Hiding evidence and concealing her identity in case of emergencies was her specialty.
“Father. Don’t you know me? That nurse has no idea who I am. There’s no evidence. You think I wouldn’t be that careful?”
-Seo Tae-jun has already pointed you out and stepped forward. Now he’s trying to fire me too because I’m involved!
“I told you I wasn’t caught?”
-Why on earth did you have to mess with Seo Tae-jun of all people?
“I wasn’t messing with Seo Tae-jun, but Hong Ji-an! I did it to catch that bitch. Because she stole Seo Tae-jun from me. I was trying to get him back!”
-Hah, you stupid thing. It’s already over, so get on a plane before they catch your tail. I’ll send Manager Park tomorrow.
“No! Why should I over such a trivial matter!”
She had lived doing whatever she wanted without lacking anything. She couldn’t be chased away to Russia where she couldn’t even communicate over something like this.
“I’ll handle it. I just need to clean everything up!”
-Get your head straight! They caught the hospital director to get us from the beginning. Seo Tae-jun is systematically trying to take us down now. What the hell have you been doing at the hospital! Huh? Why did you have to mess with Seo Tae-jun!
“No. It wasn’t me. What did I even do! I just…!”
As Bo-kyung shook her head, Park Soon-ja flashed through her mind instantly.
That’s it. Seo Tae-jun found out about that. That I used Park Soon-ja.
Suddenly a chill rushed through her body, making her shiver.
-Stay away until things quiet down. Never get caught by Seo Tae-jun!
The call ended with that firm command.
Bo-kyung trembled while holding her phone.
She was angry. She felt wronged.
“Seo Tae-jun. That bastard!”
Her eyes flashed wickedly.
“He knew everything all along and was playing with me?”
It was do or die anyway.
Then she’d have to cause some chaos before getting on that plane.
Bo-kyung grabbed the whiskey bottle and gulped it down, then dialed the caregiver’s number who always sent the same routine reports.
-What’s the matter calling suddenly at this hour?
The caregiver’s voice came through, deliberately lowered.
“Listen carefully. Bring Hong Ji-an’s mother out of the hospital without anyone knowing. Then, I’ll give you ten times more.”
She began instructing the caregiver to commit kidnapping.
-But, but how can I? There are even bodyguards.
“There’s medicine in my locker. I’ll give you the number, so mix it into drinks and make them all consume it.”
-Hey, medicine? What kind of medicine?
“One pill will put them all to sleep within 10 minutes. Oh, give Hong Ji-an’s mother a few more pills to make her sleep deeply. I’ll handle the rest, so bring the entire medicine box from the locker too.”
-I, I can’t do it. That kind of thing….
“If I get caught, you’re finished too. We’re already in the same boat. So stick with me. If you just do as I say, I’ll create a way out for you.”
-…Really, I just need to do as you say?
“That’s right. Put them to sleep and secretly slip out of the hospital room, then contact me.”
-Ah, I understand.
Bo-kyung gave her the locker’s passcode with a grotesque smile and ended the call.
“Now you’re all dead. Just wait. I’ll make you regret touching me for the rest of your life.”
Consumed by excitement, Bo-kyung picked up the tablet she had thrown with blazing eyes. Then she left malicious comments under Hong Ji-an’s video.
After that, under the pretense of serving the public good and with a sense of mission that everyone in the world should know, she spread the fact that Hong Ji-an was Park Soon-ja’s granddaughter everywhere along with all sorts of scandals. Filled with filthy malice.
