Episode 122
* * *
Meanwhile, in the garden of a peaceful detached house in Pyeongchang-dong.
“Yusong, is there something wrong…?”
Here, several high-ranking government officials, politicians, and the Hion Owner Family were secretly gathered for a meeting.
And all of them were focused on just one person.
Hyeon Yuseong.
This moment was when the future of many patients would be decided by a single word from Hyeon Yuseong!
“Ah.”
Yusong, who had been lost in thought for a moment, calmly shook his head.
“It’s nothing. Please continue.”
“Ah, yes. Regarding the 4th generation anticancer drug from S-Heal… we all have high expectations for it. However…”
“If it’s about the price issue, there’s no need to persuade me.”
“!”
“We’ve already agreed to proactively lower the price as much as possible, specifically for Korea.”
Yusong said this as if it were nothing special, then stood up.
“There will be a minimum threshold due to R&D costs, but fortunately we’ve devised a way to dramatically reduce production costs, so it will be a much better price than you expect.”
“!!!”
Such wonderful news!
The officials from the Health Insurance Review & Assessment Service breathed sighs of relief.
To think he would be so cooperative…!
They thought it would be extremely difficult since it was the ‘Hyun Family’!
“Well then, I’ll be going now. I have a prior appointment. Please discuss the rest with the working-level staff.”
Since dealing with them up to this point had already required considerable patience from him, Yusong left without hesitation.
However, no one felt bad about his quick departure.
Soon after, one of the working-level staff discreetly showed them a paper with the estimated price written on it.
‘!!!!’
What, it’s one-tenth the level, at this price?!
There would certainly be no one foolish enough to commit the blunder of saying ‘How rude of him to get up from his seat first!’ to someone offering to sell anticancer drugs—one of the most expensive medicines in the world—at such a reasonable price.
“A-are you serious about this price…?”
“It’s the CEO’s decision.”
“W-why would he make such a decision…?”
The working-level staff simply remained silent.
Because honestly, they couldn’t understand the situation either.
For that cold-blooded ‘Hyeon Yuseong’ to make such an absurd decision!
Whether the S-Heal people felt regretful inside or not, the government officials decided to simply enjoy this wonderful news.
This was a tremendous achievement when dealing with the Hyun Family, famous for being ‘completely unpredictable lunatics.’
The government officials each had similar thoughts.
‘…He really is unpredictable!’
Today, fortunately, it was unpredictable in a good way!
Leaving behind the people who had become harmonious.
Yusong let out a short sigh and called to the man who had followed him.
“Have you found traces of that woman?”
“Ah, yes. CEO. We’ve found almost everything. However…”
“What is it.”
“…We need a little more time.”
Kim Manager spoke hesitantly, which was very rare for him.
He had found something out, but the content was something even he found hard to believe.
“Five days remain until I return to the United States. Finish it within three days.”
Yusong spoke in a voice tinged with fatigue.
“I will definitely accomplish it within that time.”
“Good.”
Yusong said this and entered the house.
He had come to Korea by splitting and re-splitting his busy schedule, all just to find that one woman.
It was a decision no rational, logical person would ever make. If he were in his right mind, he should have been participating in new drug-related IR events in the United States.
“You’re back, son?”
Yusong turned at the sound of Mrs. Ju calling him.
“Yes, Mother.”
“You still look preoccupied with finding that child.”
“…”
“Foolish boy.”
Mrs. Ju’s voice was so cold that Kim Manager, standing behind Yusong, felt his heart tremble.
Well.
If he’s been chasing after a woman of unknown identity for nearly 9 years, from a chaebol family matriarch’s perspective, it would certainly be—
“Not only did you let go of such a wonderful child, but you still haven’t found her!”
Hm? The point seems a bit strange?
Kim Manager was momentarily confused.
However, Yusong looked directly at Mrs. Ju without showing any sign of disturbance, as if he had expected these words.
“You must not know how vast the United States is. It takes 9 years to search the entire United States.”
In the first place, the reason Yusong didn’t return to Korea and started his business in the United States was to find ‘that woman.’
After searching and re-searching all over the United States without finding her, he had come to Korea temporarily, judging that ‘the only place left is Korea.’
“9 years? If you were my son, you should have finished within 9 months. Don’t even think about telling people you’re my son.”
“I don’t think a typical man in his 30s would have much occasion to mention his mother’s name and claim to be her son.”
Kim Manager was starting to feel dizzy from this mother-son conversation.
What are these people?
Since Kim Manager had first been scouted by Yusong in the United States, this was his first encounter with other members of the Hyun Family.
So this side of Yusong was a first for him.
“You’re good with words. Why didn’t you use that skill to hold onto that child properly? How inadequate must you have been…”
“…”
Whether Yusong was frustrated but couldn’t find words to refute, or simply didn’t want to deal with her, he didn’t respond.
However, he soon displayed superhuman patience.
“Why don’t you try finding her better yourself, Mother.”
“When all I know is that her English name is ‘Haley’ and her Korean surname is Lee, what am I supposed to do! Without even a single photo!”
Mrs. Ju snapped in a voice colder than ever before.
“If it were me, I would have collected and preserved her hair first! No, I would have held onto her properly so she couldn’t go anywhere!”
“I’m sorry for not being born with distrust of humanity like you, Mother.”
Yusong said coldly.
“And since it’s my business, please lose interest. Don’t you have two other children besides me, Mother.”
“I’m not interested in your business. I’m interested in my lovely daughter-in-law! The other two sons keep shouting ‘No dating or marriage in this lifetime.’ Shouldn’t I at least try to catch that child, my only hope! Good heavens! Having only me as the woman in this desolate house! Absolutely not! Even if dirt gets in my eyes! I will definitely bring in a rabbit-like daughter-in-law!”
“Then work hard at it.”
“I’m already working hard without you telling me! I will definitely find that child and use all the wealth of this house and all my political connections to make her settle down in this house!”
“…”
“If my daughter-in-law gives me a rabbit-like granddaughter, I can even give away the other two sons!”
For the first time, Yusong thought it might be fortunate that his father had passed away long ago.
If he had heard his mother’s words just now, there would have been twice as many people tormenting him, saying ‘That’s right, dear!’
As if he wouldn’t engage in this useless argument any longer, he went into his room.
And only Kim Manager was left standing silently, once again realizing the meaning of ‘the completely unpredictable lunatic Hyun Family.’
Just then.
“You said your name was Manager Kim, right?”
“Ah, yes. Ma’am. That’s correct.”
“How much did you find out before coming here?”
“Pardon?”
Manager Kim was momentarily flustered.
What the hell??
“You might fool that dense fool, but you can’t fool me. Looks like you found something. Shall we share it?”
“!!!!”
Manager Kim’s jaw dropped.
Really, there’s no predicting her at all…!
* * *
“Hm? Tomorrow?”
“Yeah. Yewon needs to go to school, so we should buy her a backpack and new clothes. Let’s go to the department store and look around. I heard there’s a kids lounge in the basement for children. They say there are lots of rides too?”
At Doha’s words, Yewon nodded with an “ah.”
The end of the year is already approaching. It’s about time to start preparing for elementary school…
She had no interest in the kids lounge at all, but it wouldn’t be bad to go along with her uncles’ plans.
‘I don’t know why, but my uncles seem to really like it when I play like a kid…’
“Mm. Got it. Then are all the other uncles coming too?”
“Yeah. I think so.”
Doha took off Yewon’s socks and nodded.
Then he paused for a moment and spoke up.
“…We’re going in our spare time from work, so don’t be too hard on us…”
“…Really?”
“Yeah…”
If that’s the case.
Yewon nodded.
“My uncles don’t fight these days, right?”
“….”
For some reason, Doha nodded as a wave of self-loathing washed over him.
“Yeah… we don’t fight… How could we fight when Yewon is here.”
“Mm. Don’t fight and get along well. When I go to school, there will be lots of time when I’m not here. Don’t fight during those times either.”
Until I win the Fox Lead Actor Award and Uncle becomes truly safe, you absolutely must not fight!
Yewon widened her eyes and stared at Doha.
“…Mmhm…”
At that gaze, Doha really began to feel a little sad.
I need to tell the members to be thoroughly careful in front of Yewon…
“But, Yewon. If you’re that worried about your uncles, you don’t have to go to school and could do homeschooling instead-“
“Uncle. If you stick together 24 hours a day like that, you’ll only grow apart.”
“….”
“I saw on a drama that maintaining proper distance is the key to human relationships.”
Yewon said firmly.
And Doha vowed that whatever drama that was, he would make sure Yewon never watched it again.
