“She decided to do the movie again?”
“Yeah. I guess it somehow worked out.”
After receiving training at an action school for her upcoming action movie; Jang Seol Hyun returned and talked about Jung Ah Young. It seemed as though things were already resolved—but to Ahn Soo Ho—it seemed like a bomb that could explode at any moment. However, for Jung Ah Young who received the support of Hosoo Entertainment Group; she gained more than what she lost.
“Are you going to be friendly with her outside of business?”
“I like her personality.”
They had different backgrounds, but the two women had similar personalities. Jang Seol Hyun had probably just gone off from action school because she was wearing leggings and a short yoga pants.
“We only have three hours left. Hurry up and get ready.”
“Okay.”
Ahn Soo Ho’s scolding made her rush to get washed up. The two of them were in a suite at the Daesan Hotel. They were not in their house, but they soon felt just as comfortable in their hotel’s suite as they did at home. Living in hotels was probably hard to understand in the eyes of Koreans. However, staying in a hotel was normal for Ahn Soo Ho since he had been to hotels all over the world.
Should a person decide not to stay in a place for a long time; there wasn’t a better place to stay than in a nice hotel. Ahn Soo Ho’s house wasn’t that bad either. However, he didn’t want Logan and his underlings visiting all the time and making Mrs. Park Ok Nam and Lee So Hye uncomfortable. All men needed their own workspace.
‘I’d better get myself another building.’
Ahn Soo Ho did have a safe house. However, Alexa and Kosino used that house a lot. There would be a time when Ahn Soo Ho would have to tell Jang Seol Hyun everything—but that wasn’t going to happen today or tomorrow.
Ahn Soo Ho’s schedule looked like this.
Visiting in-laws.
Signing the take-over contract for JTV.
Visiting Kim Na Hee and talk to Han Chae Kyung before going to New York.
He had quite the busy schedule ahead.
After Ahn Soo Ho’s call with Prince Hashim; it was possible that Jenkins had already caught on and ran away. However, he was certain that wasn’t going to happen. Peter Jenkins wasn’t going to leave New York. That was because Ahn Soo Ho was with Lila.
‘This was an unintended strategy.’
Ahn Soo Ho and Lila did come to Korea together, but they didn’t mind each other. It was Oh Joo Kyung’s job to take care of Lila. The story of a pop star’s vacation in Korea was a good story to tell for the promotion of Hosoo Entertainment. However, giving Lila a package tour wasn’t going to be exciting. So Oh Joo Kyung made up an itinerary of her own.
‘Director Oh sure is shameless.’
Since Lila was just in her early 20’s she had never taught of teaching anyone before. So employing her to be a teacher at Hosoo Entertainment Academy was quite shocking. However, Oh Joo Kyung—the one who made the offer—didn’t think she’d actually accept. Lila thought teaching was fun though.
‘Raising someone while seeing them get better is pretty fun.’
The feeling of being accepted by the world? Teaching another person was an honorable thing to do, and it was beyond the popularity and money. Lila enjoyed teaching for the first time, and that caused a huge change in the future she imagined for herself. This wasn’t Oh Joo Kyung’s intention, but Lila matured as a human being.
Lila’s mood was so great that she wanted to do something for her students, so she took them on a trip. If Hosoo Entertainment didn’t own their own airline; getting seats for dozens of students wouldn’t have been easy. Lila probably didn’t know how much it would cost to use a private jet either.
‘How would she know when she went on tour all the time?’
Oh Joo Kyung probably thought she was using Lila to make Hosoo Entertainment look better—but the way Ahn Soo Ho saw it—Lila was ripping Oh Joo Kyung off instead. She knew exactly how much she was worth. The internet’s news was focused on Lila’s whereabouts. However, the economic columnists focused on Hosoo Entertainment and Holly Corporation.
Scott Warren of Holly Corporation is in the middle of a divorce suit!
The executive committee must put their foot down! If they don’t want the company to split up—they must bring new investors in!
Is Korea’s Big money targeting Hollywood? What’s CEO Ahn Soo Ho thinking?
CEO Ahn Soo Ho’s base is actually America, not Korea!
“What are you doing?”
Ahn Soo Ho—who was looking through his tablet PC—grabbed Jang Seol Hyun by the waist and gave her a short kiss.
“That’s an article about Lila.”
“Do you meet up with her these days?”
“Even if I ask, she says she’s too busy. She must be having fun teaching.”
The hotel staff had already brought Jang Seol Hyun’s clothes, shoes, makeup, and other belongings into their suite. This was another service that was offered by the hotel, and this kind of service was only offered to special guests. Jang Seol Hyun’s stylist and hairdresser showed up and fixed her hair and makeup. They finished in no time since there were multiple people working on one person.
“What do you think?”
“You look beautiful.”
Jang Seol Hyun didn’t bother to put on an extravagant makeup and clothes since the party that she was attending wasn’t that fancy. Jang Seol Hyun arrived at an outdoor restaurant that they rented out—the restaurant was called—The Garden.
“Is our son-in-law here?”
As soon as Ahn Soo Ho said hello to his future mother-in-law;
Ahn Soo Ho greeted his future mother-in-law and everyone in the party. He was being sociable today which was very different from his usual self. Jang Seol Hyun was also busy greeting everyone as well.
It was great that there were no unpleasant relatives that came—or maybe—their relatives hadn’t revealed their true colors yet
“Is he good to you?”
“Of course! He’s so caring.”
“What about the articles about him and Lila in the States?”
“That was a false report.”
“You have to be careful of men with lots of money. You don’t know when the young girls might pounce.”
“That won’t happen.”
Jang Seol Hyun was surrounded by some of her female relatives that were jealous of her. It wasn’t that they weren’t well-off, but Jang Seol Hyun had more. It was normal for a person to feel that other people had more. Of course, the party wouldn’t be complete without Jang Seol Hyun giving out favors.
“If you run into any trouble call this number. Tell them your name and they’ll treat you well.”
“Thanks. But where is this?”
“The group’s secretary room.”
“Wow, that makes you sound like the wife of the owner.”
The status of heirs in Korean society was astronomical. People cursed at heirs while still wanting to get close to them. Ahn Soo Ho succeeded so much in his life that he was at the same level as heirs if not higher. If he was just sort of wealthy; people would have said that Jang Seol Hyun could do better. However, since he was now the richest man in Korea—no one could say anything.
However, someone did dare to say something about him. Jang Seol Hyun still checked on Ahn Soo Ho from time to time while she entertains their guest. She looked at her watch three times—excused herself—then approached Ahn Soo Ho.
“Dad, uncles. I’m sorry, but may I borrow Soo Ho?”
“Wow, Seol Hyun. Are you choosing him over us now?”
“That’s not what I’m saying. He squeezed this party in his schedule despite having an important contract signing today. So please let him go.”
“Well, how can we argue with that? Okay, Soo Ho. It must have been hard dealing with us old folk. Go on and do your work.”
“I apologize. I’ll treat you to delicious food next time.”
Ahn Soo Ho bowed and apologized.
“We should be the ones apologizing for calling over a busy man. But are you going to be alright? The highways in Seoul are probably full of traffic as of the moment.”
“I have my ways.”
Ahn Soo Ho smirked. At that moment, he saw his employees on the grass making some room. There was a reason why he booked an outdoor restaurant for the Jang family’s gathering. When a helicopter landed; all eyes were on Ahn Soo Ho.
“I apologize, everyone. I must get going. Seol Hyun, take care of the elders, okay?”
“Don’t worry, Soo Ho.”
The way he leisurely took a helicopter to leave looked like a scene from a movie. The kids were busy taking photos, and the adults were very pleased to see him taking a helicopter as if it was a car.
They felt great.
In Korean families, there was a tendency to stress the word—us. Ahn Soo Ho realized early on that rather than rejecting it, it was better to use it to his advantage. Blood ties were both easy and difficult. One couldn’t abandon any of their family members because of a single mistake.
‘I’m sure Seul Hyun was doing a good job though…’
Since showing off was crucial in society; Jang Seol Hyun had to be respected as Hosoo Entertainment Group’s future wife.
“We’ve arrived.”
The distance that would have taken over an hour by car only took less than 20 minutes by helicopter. All preparations for the transfer of JTV was completed by Oh Joo Kyung, who waited for Ahn Soo Ho to arrive. Once he arrived, he shook hands, signed the papers, and then it ended there.
He left the press conference to Oh Joo Kyung. Ahn Soo Ho got into the helicopter and took off again. The last place he arrived at was a parking ramp in the corner of Incheon International Airport. There, he met Kim Na Hee and Han Chae Kyung. This was the one thing that Ahn Soo Ho agreed to take on by himself.
“You sure put a lot of care into it. Is she your daughter? I did hear about a surrogate being a thing… People even donate eggs.”
“Stop the nonsense!”
Kim Na Hee shook her head at Ahn Soo Ho’s nonsense.
“Don’t learn that from him, Chae Kyung.”
“Why not? He’s cool.”
“It sounds like you know what cool is, Chae Kyung. You’ll succeed for sure. No, I’ll make sure you do.”
“Thank you, Uncle!”
Han Chae Kyung accepted Ahn Soo Ho’s jokes with a bright smile. The pilot informed them that they were ready for take off, and they let Han Chae Kyung get on first. Ahn Soo Ho and Kim Na Hee went for a walk. There were many signs with warnings on them since they were in a restricted area.
“Did you start the lawsuit?”
“Yeah.”
“He must be pretty sad.”
“Are you meeting him without my knowledge?”
“No.”
Ahn Soo Ho was never close to Kim Na Hee’s husband.
“Why are you going to New York? As for me, it’s best that I keep my distance from Korea, but you just got here. Didn’t Seol Hyun want to go with you?”
“She has a movie filming starting next month, so she can’t go with me.”
“Oh yeah. She’s working with Director Yoon, right? She must have hated that even more.”
“I’ll be back soon.”
Ahn Soo Ho planned to be gone for just a week. He then asked about Han Chae Kyung.
“Did you go to a doctor? What did they say?”
“Apparently, she’s so strong-willed that there probably won’t be much of an issue. He said I should make her work instead of letting her stay in her room all day.”
“Really? She seems to be doing fine. She reminds me of you when you were younger.”
“I’m still young, you know. But then again, I’ve been so stressed these days that my skin’s been suffering… Do I look old?”
“Old lady, you’re in your fifties already. Think about your age. If this was the Joseon era, you’d have great-grandchildren already.”
However, she looked young for a 50-year-old woman. She looked like she was in her early 40’s. The expensive makeup and massages she got helped her look 10 years younger.
“You’re going to age, too, Soo Ho. Just you wait.”
“But until then, I’m fine.”
Ahn Soo Ho enjoyed making fun of Kim Na Hee. The flight attendant waved at them again so Ahn Soo Ho walked Kim Na Hee to the entrance.
“Have a safe trip.”
“Don’t drag on the lawsuit too much. If you don’t have money, I’ll help you.”
“Aw, thanks for saying that.”
Kim Na Hee grumbled and hugged Ahn Soo Ho while also being thankful and sorry to him. They both waved at each other as they parted. Another exclusive news about Hosoo Entertainment Group took over Korea while Ahn Soo Ho was away in his private jet that was headed to New York.
