◈ Episode 189 Abu Dhabi (1)

Nam Woon-myung has never met Chairman Hyun Man-heum in person. So he has not been able to look into Chairman Hyun Man-heum’s fate.

The same goes for President Hyeon-Seop. I’ve heard a lot about him, but I don’t remember meeting him in person yet.

That’s why Joo Do-hee was the first senior member of the Bukseong Group.

From her, we get a glimpse into the turbulent history of the North Star Group and its family.

Although the Bukseong Group is his enemy, the parties involved are Chairman Hyun Man-heum and Hyun Jae-seop. He had no particular ill feelings toward Joo Do-hee, who kept her distance from the group’s management and devoted her entire life to quietly devoting herself to housework.

That’s why I looked at her with a bit of pity, as she didn’t have much time left to live.

‘Are Hyunjae Seop and Hyunjae Eun’s mothers different?’

The marriage fortune that appeared in Joo Do-hee’s fate did not match Hyeon Jae-seop’s age.

Hyun Man-heum had two children, Hyeon Jae-seop and Hyeon Jae-eun. However, Joo Do-hee got married after Hyeon Jae-seop was born.

Because it happened so long ago, little was known about it to the world.

It’s something that will have to be verified for sure someday, but his guess is unlikely to be wrong.

Perhaps, Hyun Man-heum’s first wife died when Hyun Jae-seop was born, and then Hyun Man-heum remarried Joo Do-hee.

Also, Joo Do-hee’s fate was not to have a son, so at least it was certain that Hyun Jae-seop was not the son she gave birth to.

As soon as we finished eating, the car arrived.

While drinking tea leisurely, Joo Do-hee opened her mouth again.

“Are you close with Asol?”

“Oh, yes.”

There was no reason to say no, so I said yes.

“Asol is really pretty. Her personality is not feminine but aggressive. She was raised with too much squeamishness.”

The kindness of a grandmother who loves her granddaughter can be seen in Joo Do-hee who brings up Hyun Ah-sol.

While they were arguing this way and that, Joo Do-hee asked again.

“……But why did you want to see me? I don’t think it was because of Asol.”

Finally, let’s get to the main point.

Nam Yun-myeong straightened his upper body.

“Do you know the circumstances surrounding the day that Chairman Hyun Man-heum passed away?”

At the unexpected topic, not only Joo Do-hee but also Hyun A-ram’s expression changed.

“What do you mean?”

“Chairman Hyun Man-heum has been receiving treatment at Bukseong Hospital due to poor health.”

“Yes, I was hospitalized for almost five years.”

“It is understandable that you were physically weak due to a chronic illness, but weren’t you healthy enough to handle major tasks in the hospital room?”

“It wasn’t healthy, but… that’s what it was.”

“What I mean is, it wasn’t like he was going to go back anytime soon.”

Unlike Joo Do-hee, Hyun A-ram’s eyebrows rose slightly.

“Are you saying that you don’t understand the reason for your grandfather’s death?”

Nam Woon-myung nodded.

“That’s… I wonder if you could be more careful with your words?”

Nam Woon Myung continued speaking without any hesitation at all in response to Hyun A Ram’s barbed tone.

“It may be embarrassing, but think back to that day. I heard that the whole family went to visit him that day. At that time, Chairman Hyun Man-heum was fine, right? He welcomed his family as usual.”

“but…….”

“What happened that night?”

“You write novels in your head.”

Joo Do-hee was frowning, and Hyun A-ram and Nam Woon-myung were arguing.

Of course, Nam Yun-myeong doesn’t know the details of what happened that night.

Although it is impossible to make an accurate guess without seeing the key party, Hyun Jae-seop, in person, it was enough to identify the culprit just by looking at the photo.

“There is a doctor at Bukseong Hospital, right? He holds the answer. What is clear is that he was not yet in a condition to die, but he passed away suddenly. Was there a family member who was with him that day?”

It couldn’t be. After visiting him in the hospital as usual and going their separate ways, they would have been notified of his sudden death not long after. Even the eldest son, Hyeonjae-seop, couldn’t be there to be with him when he died.

“No matter what, I can’t doubt it like that…….”

“Call the hospital staff and check. Of course, you shouldn’t call the attending physician first. First, quietly call the other doctors who were involved in the treatment and ask for their opinions.”

Hyun Aram was so shocked that she couldn’t say anything.

“The culprit is the one who benefits the most from Chairman Hyun Man-heum’s death. The person who carried it out and connected it is the attending physician. What is the attending physician doing now?”

“Dr. Yeom Jong-bok was… a specialist in internal medicine and the director of the cancer center… and was recently promoted to vice director.”

“If we investigate who was involved in that promotion, we’ll find the culprit.”

“Well…….”

Hyun Aram, who had been speaking absentmindedly, closed her mouth.

“That’s all I have to tell you. Since they are your opponents, you should investigate them carefully. If you’re not careful, all the evidence could disappear.”

Nam Woon-myung turned his gaze to Joo Do-hee again.

“What do you think when you see President Hyeon-Seop’s usual personality?”

Joo Do-hee couldn’t answer right away.

As expected, Nam Woon-myung continued speaking.

“When Chairman Hyun Man-heum was first hospitalized a few years ago, President Hyun Jae-seop must have been excited about becoming the group’s CEO. However, Chairman Hyun Man-heum’s health did not worsen after hospitalization. He continued to devote himself to group work even in his hospital room. As there was no change after several years, President Hyun Jae-seop became increasingly anxious.”

The atmosphere inside the room became increasingly heavy.

“Then, on that day, as far as I know, Chairman Hyun Man-heum made an unexpected statement. He said that he would transfer 10% of the stocks in Bukseong Pharmaceutical that he owned to Hyun Ah-sol.”

“That’s right. That’s what happened that day.”

“This incident shocked President Hyeon-Seop Hyun. Because, as you know, Bukseong Pharmaceutical stocks are not simple. They are connected to Bukseong Bio. President Hyeon-Seop Hyun became anxious. If Chairman Hyeon Man-Heum lives for another ten years, and during that time, he passes on the stocks to his grandchildren instead of his son…….”

How long will Hyun Man-Heum live? Hyun Jae-Seop thought seriously.

Even if he inherits it in the future, isn’t it a long shot to become the head of a powerful group? If he’s old and the major stocks have already been passed down to his descendants.

The scene where he handed over the stocks to Hyun Ah-sol that day must have been shocking to Hyun Jae-seop.

Even so, Hyun-Seop couldn’t help but decide on something he had been planning in secret for a long time, and he must have consulted with his doctor about it. How to make sure it doesn’t get revealed to the outside world.

And I put it into action right away. There’s no way things will get better if I put it off. After all, the sooner I get to the chairman’s position, the better.

Nam Yun-myeong briefly floated a fortune based on the facts he had guessed.

And I was confident enough that it was true.

If the hospital is dug up, the truth will be revealed. The share of this naturally falls to Hyun Ah-ram and Joo Do-hee. If Joo Do-hee is not Hyun Jae-seop’s biological mother, the possibility increases.

Because she would want to find her daughter’s share of the inheritance that she had been passed over for. Because Hyun-Seop is not her son.

It was enough to cause this much of a stir. Even if they don’t move right away, it doesn’t matter. I’ve planted a small seed of doubt in their minds. The truth will come out someday.

Nam Yun-myeong got up from his seat, leaving the two people with pale faces.

“I apologize for my off-topic remarks. I had a nice lunch today. Next time, I will come back with a more constructive topic.”

Nam Yun-myeong bowed deeply.

It’s been a long time since I heard from Choi Da-eun.

[Wise man! Help me!]

She asked for help out of the blue, without any reason.

“What’s going on?”

[Would you like to come to the Hwayoung Hotel? As soon as possible.]

There’s no reason I can’t go if you tell me to, but I’m busy with work right now.

“I have a lot to do right now.”

[What? Do I have to do it today?]

That’s true. But if you keep putting it off, it will just keep getting put off and it will also be detrimental to your coworkers.

While Choi Da-eun was chatting with him, Jeong Seon-yeong, sitting next to him, poked him in the ribs.

“Are you Da-eun?”

“Yes, he asked me to come quickly and help him… For now, I don’t know what it is.”

“You have to help out at times like this to get points.”

“Is that so?”

After answering, something seemed strange. What could possibly be the reason for him to get points from Choi Da-eun?

When I look at Jeong Seon-yeong, I see a meaningful expression on her face, as if she knows something. It seems like there was a serious misunderstanding, but there is no need to make excuses.

Jeong Seon-yeong pushed him, who was still hesitating.

“Have a nice day. If you have anything to do, I’ll take care of it.”

“Oh, I understand. I’ll buy you dinner next time.”

Isn’t buying meals for colleagues the best reward?

Nam Woon-myung shouted into his cell phone, leaving behind the smiling Jeong Seon-yeong.

“Okay, I’ll go now. Where should I go?”

* * *

Choi Da-eun was at the main branch of Hwayoung Hotel.

In line with the HY Emerald brand chain project, the sign that read “Hwayoung Hotel” disappeared and was replaced with the sign that read “HY Emerald.” Compared to the past, it had a more modern aesthetic.

He went up to the top floor of the hotel where Choi Da-eun was. As if he had been told in advance, the hotel staff kindly guided him.

The moment he stepped out of the elevator after reaching the top floor, Nam Woon-myung opened his eyes wide.

This is the floor where the most expensive presidential rooms in the hotel are located. However, it is currently in disarray due to interior renovations.

“came?”

As I was watching in a daze, Choi Da-eun approached me.

“Why is there chaos all of a sudden?”

“A state guest has decided to visit.”

I’ve heard that this happens when a foreign leader visits. They completely change the bedding and interior decoration of the hotel to match the country.

I followed Choi Da-eun into the room under construction.

He also saw the presidential room for the first time. His mouth dropped open at the view of Seoul through the large windows.

“How much does it cost to stay here for one night?”

“Twenty million won. Sometimes it’s set at thirty million won. Actually, there’s no set price, so you can call the price. Are you coming with your girlfriend?”

“I don’t have a girlfriend, and I don’t have the means to stay in a place like this.”

Even for a conglomerate, this is not an easy price to pay. I wondered again who would spend tens of millions of won per night in a place like this.

“Who is coming?”

“Ashuryo.”

“ah!”

Assur is a member of the royal family of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) in the Middle East. To be exact, he is the younger brother of the current king. He is in charge of the sovereign wealth fund of the United Arab Emirates and is actively engaged in investment activities worldwide. He is famous for investing in English EPL clubs.

He is a famous person known to the public in our country as the richest man in the world. He was once called Eoksur.

I vaguely remember seeing it on the news. It said that Assur of the United Arab Emirates was visiting Korea to discuss economic cooperation between the two countries.

We have previously cooperated with each other in the construction of nuclear power plants. I think this visit to Korea was to discuss follow-up cooperation.

Recently, with Saudi Arabia pouring huge amounts of investment into Neom City, the eyes of the business world have turned to the United Arab Emirates as well.

“Ashur decided to stay at our hotel. This is partly because of the high-end image of the Hwayoung Hotel, but also because my father had some previous friendship with us.”

Chairman Choi Yong-mook of Hwayoung Group looked new. In business, connections are important, and the ability to catch those connections is even more important.

It was a perfect opportunity for Hwayoung Group to launch a new brand, HY Emerald, so they were doing their best to visit Assur.

“Of course, the hotel will take care of the basics… Is there anything you would recommend? Like interior decoration items or welcome programs.”

He also knew nothing about Middle Eastern customs or practices.

When he shook his head, Choi Da-eun pouts.

“I thought a wise man knew everything.”

Nam Woon-myung looked around the hotel room with a smile on his face.

The construction was almost finished.

“Do you have any information about Ashur?”
