Genius Manager Who Hears Voices - Chapter 45
Only Noblemtl
Episode 45
Heeseong stood frozen as if he was alone in a separate space.
The voice that he had heard only a moment ago was making him do that.
[Manager Jung, can you do me one favor? There’s one thing I really want to ask of you before I die.]
If it had been an hour ago, it would not have been easy to tell who this voice belonged to.
Because I had never had a single private conversation with her before.
But not now.
Because now Hee-sung is also her manager.
[Looking at my physical condition right now, it seems like I don’t have much time left. The pain is getting worse and my energy is depleting… …. I feel like I should leave a will to someone before it’s too late. I feel really bad about leaving the burden on Manager Jeong.]
An Jeong was talking to Hee Sung, but Hee Sung was not heard in the conversation.
Only her dry, parchment-like voice is being spat out.
[Send this letter to this address. And when I die, return all my property to that child. I have already made all the necessary preparations a long time ago, so it won’t be difficult. It’s just that I can’t do it while I’m alive… ]
It was a surprise that was more shocking than confusing.
This can’t possibly be decades in the future, yet An Jeong mentions his own death several times.
‘Could this really be the reason for his retirement…?’
[I am a truly sinful person. I will now go to hell to pay the price for my sins. It was a life where I could not do anything as I wished, but I feel relieved that I can decorate it as I wish, even at the end. Thank you for being my last manager, Manager Jung.]
The period she and Heesung promised was until this work.
The fact that she said this also meant that something was going to happen soon.
So that means your current physical condition is not very good… … .
What on earth must it be like for someone to even leave a will?
And, what does the will mean?
At that moment, Heeseong’s voice, which had been disconnected for a long time, flowed out.
[Where is this letter being sent? Who is the recipient?]
[You can send it to Atlanta. I have written down the address and name. It is a letter that I tried to deliver in person two years ago but couldn’t, but I didn’t have the courage at the time… ]
Her last voice was faintly heard through the noise that broke apart like noise.
[I’m leaving my secret that I couldn’t tell anyone for 30 years only with Manager Jung. Thank you again and I’m sorry, Manager Jung.]
Hee-sung returns to reality.
In his sight, he could see Jeongwonho and Amy.
Heesung immediately turned his gaze and began to search for stability.
Then, not far away, she was seen sitting there in a state of anxiety.
“Senior, are you okay?”
“Haa… … ha.”
“I’ll take you to the hospital right away. Lean on me, sir.”
Now that he knew that her condition wasn’t just a simple cold, Hee-sung started to look for the assistant director while supporting her.
Because being unable to even control one’s body means that filming is no longer possible.
He shook his head with an uneasy look while holding onto Heeseong’s arm.
“It’s okay. But more importantly, why did those people come here… … ?”
“Those people? Who… … .”
In the place where An Jeong’s gaze landed, there were two people talking to the A team coach, and it seemed like he was asking because they were the first to exchange a laugh with Hee Sung right after they arrived on the scene.
“Oh, are you talking about Representative Jeong? He said he was nearby and wanted to show me the filming set. The person next to him is a casting manager in Hollywood.”
“… …Hollywood? That kid?”
“Huh? That kid… … .”
Amy was over thirty years old.
Of course, he may be a little young by American standards, but he certainly doesn’t look young enough to be called a child.
But it’s ironic.
Just when they started to feel that something was strange, CEO Jeongwonho approached the two.
“Hello, senior! This is Jeong Won-ho. It’s been about three years since I’ve seen you. How have you been?”
As Jeong Won-ho approached and greeted her, as if they were already familiar with each other, An Jeong hurriedly covered his forehead with one hand and nodded.
“Oh, right. It’s been a while. But I’m not feeling well today, so I think I should go in first… … .”
“Oh, dear. Your complexion doesn’t look so good. I was going to introduce you to someone in Hollywood, but today doesn’t seem to be the day. I hope you get well soon, sir.”
Amy, who was with him, looked at An Jeong-gyeong, but An Jeong-gyeong was still covering his face without making eye contact with Amy.
Heeseong, who sensed a strange atmosphere, supported her and spoke to the two of them.
“First, I will take you to the car first.”
After a while, Heeseong returned to the car and quietly watched Anjeong’s face, which was so pale that it didn’t even show any blood.
The voice that was suddenly heard and the words she let out within it.
At first, I was only concerned about her health, but after thinking about her behavior on set a little while ago, a plausible hypothesis came to mind.
‘Atlanta, child, 30 years ago. And… … the voice that was heard at that moment of all times.’
Hee-sung could never dismiss it as a simple coincidence, as he had already had similar experiences several times.
Because the voice that tells us the future never appears without a reason.
But there was one catch to this hypothesis.
‘If it was 30 years ago, you would have been before you became an adult. And at that time, you would have just debuted.’
Although it may not be exact, considering her debut career, it was a puzzle that was hard to fit together.
It is realistically unimaginable that she gave birth to a child and sent him for adoption to the distant United States before becoming an adult, and after she had already made her debut.
Nevertheless, all the clues entered were pointing there, so I couldn’t help but fit the piece together.
“Senior, do you have any children who were adopted in the United States?”
At Heeseong’s sudden question, she raised her head from where she had been resting her hand on her forehead and looked at Heeseong with surprised eyes.
“… … What are you talking about? Adoption… … . Why all of a sudden… … .”
“Ever since I saw Amy earlier, you’ve been acting very anxious. Of course, I don’t think it makes sense, but if that’s not the case, then I can’t explain how you’re acting now. Do you know why Amy is in Korea right now?”
“… … How can I… … .”
“He said it was to find his biological mother, from whom he was separated 30 years ago. At that time, he was abandoned by his biological mother and adopted to the United States, but now he wants to meet her. CEO Jeong Won-ho and I are helping him with that.”
“… … .”
“Just now, you referred to Amy as ‘that girl’. That’s a term that you would never normally use. And above all.”
Heeseong’s gaze, which had stopped talking, turned to the back of her hand resting on her leg.
“A mole just below the fourth nail on your left finger, sir. I shook hands with Amy once, and she had a mole in exactly the same spot as you. It seems like it doesn’t make sense, but my intuition and the circumstances just don’t allow it to pass. If my guess is wrong, I deeply apologize for my rudeness. But right now, sir, I need a definitive answer.”
In fact, moles are not inherited.
People often misunderstand this because there are many cases where moles are in similar locations among family members, but this is not actually the case.
So, although this was obviously just a coincidence, I thought it would definitely be effective in eliciting an answer from her.
How much time has passed?
As if Heeseong’s guess was correct, a trembling voice came out of Anjeong’s mouth, breaking the long silence.
“Excuse me, but could you close the window? What I’m about to say is something that no one should know.”
***
Nearly an hour had passed since then.
When Heeseong returned to the filming set, Jeongwonho and Amy had also finished their work.
Jeong Won-ho said to Hee-seong who returned with a pleased smile.
“I think it was a good idea to bring Amy here today. I think it felt much fresher because it was a historical drama rather than a modern one, haha. Right, Amy?”
“It was great. Hollywood productions are increasingly featuring scenes set in Asia, so I think today’s tour was very helpful in that regard. Thank you, Mr. Jung.”
“Um, if you’re going to keep calling me that, wouldn’t it be better to just call me by my name, Amy? It’d be more confusing that way.”
“I was thinking about that anyway. I think I’ll be seeing you more often than I thought.”
Amy looks at Heesung and smiles her signature smile.
Jeongwonho also turned his gaze to Heeseong and asked as if something had come to mind.
“Oh, right, didn’t you ask me on the phone earlier? Did you get something from Amy? What was it?”
It was about a story I heard from Choi Pil-hwan earlier.
However, Heesung, who had been hearing the story of stabilization for quite some time, now brought up a completely different story.
“We found Amy’s biological mother. I heard that her biological mother has been missing Amy for a long time and has even tried to find her herself. She has expressed her desire to meet her right away. What do you think, Amy?”
Amy’s eyes widened and she reacted with great surprise at those words.
He opened his mouth right away, saying there was nothing to worry about.
“Of course you should. Where are you now? I’ll come find you right away!”
“He is nearby. Will you follow me?”
The place Amy was taken to was in front of the van.
Heeseong said, pointing to the back door.
“There is a mother inside me that Amy has been desperately looking for. As you will learn as you talk, her biological mother has never forgotten Amy even for a single day. So please feel free to talk to her comfortably without being restricted by time.”
After saying that, Hee-seong quietly walked back to where Jeong-won was.
I saw Hee-sung, who had said he would take me to my biological mother but was guided to the car that An-jeong was in, and asked him what on earth was going on.
“No way… … Are you saying that Senior Ahn is Amy’s biological mother? No, how could that be possible?”
“Sir, before that, there’s something I need to ask you personally. There’s something I need to make sure of.”
Among the stories he heard from An Jeong-gyeong, one thing kept bothering him.
He opened his mouth again and asked Jeongwonho.
“Could you connect me with the director of the hospital I was admitted to last time?”
