The Youngest Son of Sunyang

Chapter 132 A Slice of the Pie 3

I first thought the house was small.

I understand why the board members of the medical foundation came to greet the new chairman for the New Year. Oh, I even understand the directors of the five provincial medical centers.

However, the managers were a bit excessive. When you add the managers who came from the provinces, it's close to a hundred.

Considering there are over thirty different medical specialties, you can assume that all the hospital's important managers have gathered. Only doctors uninterested in career advancement didn't come.

My father also showed a puzzled expression. Soon, people from the film industry would arrive... It was obvious it would turn into a chaotic scene.

But I couldn't just turn them away at the doorstep, so I quickly called my aunt.

"Aunt, can you urgently clear out a banquet hall at a Gangnam hotel? About a hundred people... They'll arrive in about thirty minutes. We also need to prepare food and drinks..."

"Whose request is this? Don't worry. We'll set it up." My aunt's cheerful voice echoed.

"Father, invite the board members and directors into the house for greetings. We've arranged for the doctors to have their meal at the hotel. Since they are all alumni or have senior-junior relationships, they should at least have a drink."

"Yes, yes. That's a good idea."

At times like this, I can put my past experiences to use. How many receptions have I hosted in the past? Even when unexpected situations arise, I must smoothly handle them. My agility from those times still hasn't faded.

As the doctors quickly left, my father sighed and received the guests. He hadn't forgotten what I considered particularly important.

He promptly summoned the directors to confirm the VIP patients and the secret patients in the 20 exclusive VVIP rooms in the hospital.

Even if it's not today, shouldn't we visit those people we should personally greet for the New Year as soon as possible? People who come to check on you when you're unwell are always appreciated.

The New Year atmosphere improved even more due to the film industry professionals who came later. The foundation board members and hospital directors exchanged business cards with the stars they had seen on screen, their expressions changing to beaming smiles. They didn't forget to offer an open invitation for anyone to visit if they ever felt unwell.

After entertaining guests until the afternoon, only our family remained.

My father, still slightly tipsy, quietly called me out to the garden.

"The cold breeze clears the alcohol out of your system, doesn't it?"

"Are you going to share something important once the alcohol has completely worn off?"

My father gave me a quick glance and playfully jabbed my side. "My child, at least one thing about your demeanor..."

My father recounted everything that had happened in his study today, without omitting a single detail. As soon as he finished speaking, my aunt came to mind.

Should I go ahead and offer half of my shares as promised?

And one word that piqued my interest.

"What about the financial aspect?"

"That's right. What do you think? Do you believe your Grandfather will give you the financial part?"

"Yes." I confidently replied, adding a few more words. "As long as there are no major hindrances from the elder uncles, it should naturally pass to me. But it might take some time to sort out the ownership of subsidiary shares, right? Who knows what might happen within that process?"

"What do you mean?"

"I'm making sure Aunt gets her share for certain. Both uncles have only secured their say in the matter. But nobody can predict how Grandfather's whims might change things."

My father took in the chilly winter air, lost in thought. Finally, he said, "Don't try to do everything on your own. When you need help, talk to someone. If necessary, I'll even grab your elder uncles by the collar for you."

"It seems like our elder uncles will have to grab Father by the collar first, haha."

Before that, let's start with Aunt...

On the second day of the New Year, Mayor Choi Seo-bang straightened his attire in front of the study and quietly knocked on the door.

There was no response, but he quietly opened the door and entered.

"Oh my, come in, Mayor Choi. You don't have to bother with New Year's greetings. Haha."

Mayor Choi, who was quite nervous, shook the rough hand extended by Chairman Jin with a bright smile, but the use of the term "Mayor Choi" instead of "Son-in-law Choi" bothered him.

"I apologize, Father-in-law. I should have come earlier, but I was delayed."

"Why worry so much when you're so busy with official duties? It's fine."

Mayor Choi realized from Chairman Jin's tone how he was perceived by the Chairman.

He was not just a son-in-law but also the Mayor of Seoul. Mayor Choi stood up from his chair and kneeled on the study floor.

"Father-in-law, I apologize. Please give me one more chance. I got carried away by power for a moment. Please forgive me."

Chairman Jin looked down at the kneeling Mayor Choi and delivered a firm but low-spoken word. "It's over. Stop. Get up."

It's over...!

Those words came from Chairman Jin. It's irreversible. This is final.

Mayor Choi remained prostrate. Although the business card that identified him as Chairman Jin's son-in-law had disappeared, he couldn't discard the business card of Choi Seo-bang, the politician.

He knew well that to maintain this business card, he had to cleanly part ways with Chairman Jin. When that old man decided, one's life could turn into a living hell.

"Please forgive me!"

Even though the request for another chance was futile, the desire for forgiveness had to be conveyed.

Mayor Choi unpacked the gift bundle he had brought, just as Jin Do-jun had advised him. He had to seek forgiveness with this.

"We've completely abandoned the Newtown project we had agreed upon with Daehyun Group. If you grant me a chance, I will come up with a new Newtown plan to be developed according to your desired location and scale." Mayor Choi hoped that the message of his willingness to create what Chairman Jin desired would be conveyed accurately.

"I said get up."

Mayor Choi slowly rose to his feet and sat in the chair.

"Do you have anything to say? Say only the essentials so that this old man can understand."

"I will do whatever you ask."

"Even if you do, nothing will change, will it?"

"I will do whatever you ask."

"We'll proceed with the divorce. Seo-yoon didn't reluctantly follow my wishes. It was her decision. No matter what happens, you can't set foot in our house."
