Chapter 741 – I’m Lucky
As soon as I arrived at the first day, I unpacked my luggage in each room and went into the living room to wait for Kang So-ra to come out.
‘When will it come out?’
We decided to stay in the same room, but we haven’t received a confirmation yet.
Because I was only focused on making the contract more favorable, I couldn’t get an answer even though I asked earlier.
Well, it didn’t really matter what choice I made. Whether she finds a separate room or stays here, the threat of rape doesn’t change.
It just adds to the hassle of having to find a new accommodation, but it won’t make much of a difference.
‘Let’s wait slowly.’
Deciding to wait until she came out, I sat in the living room and spent some time looking at my phone.
—————————–
While Lee Jin-seok was waiting alone in the living room, Kang So-ra went into the room and was thinking alone.
‘What should I do…?’
Because I felt like I had to close this contract unconditionally, I said I would share a room without even asking the other person’s opinion.
It must have been rude to answer without even asking the opinion of Mr. Jin-seok, who was living with me.
He was a person who helped for his own sake, but he shamelessly did something rude.
‘I have to say I’m sorry…’
If he didn’t want to, he even thought of using his own money to find another hotel.
The reason he didn’t say anything until now was because he was considerate enough.
Jinseok probably knew how big this contract was for coming to the U.S., So he just stayed silent even when he said that.
“Ahh… Why is that so…”
I regret my actions a few minutes ago, when I was focused on the contract and blurted out things without paying attention to my benefactor’s feelings.
What would happen if he said he didn’t like it and would cancel the meeting?
He usually did things that he hated most, regardless of his will.
Even after unpacking all her luggage, Kang So-ra could not easily leave the room because the other person might be upset and cancel the offer of help.
If I went out and met his face now, I would feel so sorry that I wouldn’t be able to reply at all if he gave me a look of resentment.
“Whoa… Let’s go out.”
After thinking over and over again, Kang So-ra finally decided to go out.
Even if he stays alone here, nothing will be solved. This contract is so important to her that she absolutely needs Jinseok’s help.
Since she was rude first, it was natural for her to apologize first. She wanted to ask for her forgiveness somehow.

-Squeak
When I was waiting alone in the living room to find out when I would come out, I heard the door that Kang So-ra entered open.
In order to show her my good side as much as possible, I didn’t look at her open door so as not to put pressure on her, but I was greeted with a completely different reaction than I expected.
“Ji-Jinseok… I’m really sorry!!”
“?”
He opened the door, carefully stuck his head out, found me, and then bowed his head and apologized.
I was wondering if I should talk to her because she was too embarrassed or uncomfortable to talk to me properly, but I was embarrassed to see that reaction.
While I was wondering why Kang So-ra was acting like that, I was soon able to understand why she was acting like that.
‘So it’s not my fault, right?’
Until now, I had been mistaken because I was always focused on picking on women.
Kang So-ra and I were the victims of Caitlin’s company’s mistake.
She was a fellow victim, but Kang So-ra said she would share a room with me on her own.
She didn’t care about my doctor, who was the same victim as her.
‘This… Can be used.’
Maybe it was because I was thinking about threatening Kang So-ra and raping her, but I didn’t even think about it.
For me, this incident was good, because it was definitely not something I disliked.
Faced with a completely unexpected situation, I immediately turned my head and adjusted my facial expression.
Instead of always smiling and putting on a mask to gain the favor of others, he had a clearly disappointed expression.
“…”
“You even helped me renew the contract, but I am truly sorry for creating this uncomfortable situation on my own…”
It was enough to just show disappointment without saying anything.
Kang So-ra, who was already thinking about various things in the room, apologized to me again with a very sorry look on her face.
As one person apologized and the other looked disappointed, an uncomfortable moment of silence passed.
Thinking it was the right time for her, I sighed and spoke to her.
“Ha… I’m disappointed. Ms. Kang So-ra.”
“Even if there were ten mouths, there would be nothing more to say…”
When I said clearly that I didn’t want it, Kang So-ra was shocked and apologized again.
I decided to make her feel even more guilty when she saw that she had become a complete Eul.
“Anyway, I thought you would have a word of discussion with me… But didn’t you go too far?”
“It was my mistake… I was blinded by the need to succeed in signing the contract…”
“Do you know how surprised she was when she heard that I would be sharing a room, even though I didn’t show it?”
“Sorry. If it’s very uncomfortable, I’ll get a separate room and go out…”
It just kills the effect to say that he was embarrassed when he said he would share a room while giving off the air of being very disappointed.
Actually, it was a little strange for Kang So-ra to apologize to me like this.
‘Because I also handed over her choice to her.’
When her bodyguard said that he could save her another room, she handed over the choice to Kang So-ra, and she chose to share a room for her contract.
It’s safe to say that I implicitly agreed to it, so in fact, she didn’t do anything wrong.
Because it was no different from Kang So-ra saying that she would leave the choice to her and follow her choice.
But.
‘So what should I do?’
I know the other person will come up to me in that position and apologize, but what idiot wouldn’t eat this?
Just because I left the choice up to her doesn’t change the fact that she decided on her room without consulting me.
Moreover, from Kang So-ra’s point of view, I am a super person who should not displease her.
Thanks to me, you have a chance to renew the contract, and you know that with just one word from me, everything will be ruined.
‘I was planning on waiting a bit, but I don’t have to.’
Originally, I was planning to wait a day and see the situation before threatening him, but now I think I can threaten him right away.
However, since it seemed like there would be no point in threatening her right away, I planned to just pretend to ignore it and use the fact that she was in charge to cross her line.
“Ha… Where are you looking to find a room right now?”
“If I go anywhere, wouldn’t I be able to find it…”
“Even if I go out and rescue him, I have to go with him to meet Chairman Ron anyway, so the bodyguards have to move twice.”
“If I ask for some understanding on that…”
“We’ve already said we’ll share a room, but if you say you’ll be looking for a room again, your position will be messed up. “Chairman Ron may be upset even before the contract is signed.”
“I’m really sorry…”
In fact, knowing Chairman Ron, I know very well that he would not be offended by something like this.
That old man, who is very thorough about work, would not be offended if I could arrange a room for him personally.
Why would I feel bad when I get a chance to make up for my mistakes when we are in a room together and have to accept our mistakes?
But.
‘This person doesn’t know that.’
Kang So-ra, who has never met Chairman Ron, is completely unaware of this fact.
Most wealthy people who are not just rich people are extremely sensitive to their own honor and reputation.
Even good-natured people who just smile are the ones who change if they receive something that could undermine their authority.
I know very well that Chairman Ron, who I am close with, would not do that, but Kang So-ra would not think that way.
Based on the rejections I’ve encountered so far, it was a very good situation for me.
“Now that I’ve already said I’m going to stay like this, there’s no going back. “If you say something else here, the other person may feel offended.”
“Then… Is there no way?”
“No, if you don’t want to ruin the contract, it would be better to live here until you go to Korea.”
“…”
Kang So-ra realized that there was no way and could no longer continue her words.
She feels sorry for Lee Jin-seok, but her contract is more important to her.
Of course, he could get upset and cancel this meeting, but fortunately he didn’t show any signs of that.
‘I have to be careful not to cause any inconvenience.’
In the end, Kang So-ra, who acknowledged that there was no turning back, vowed not to interfere with Lee Jin-seok as much as possible throughout her life.
If I made a mistake and hurt his feelings, the contract could have been completely canceled.
“It’s my fault, so I’ll be as quiet as possible while I stay here. There will never be any disturbance.”
“What’s the point of doing something wrong when you’ve already done it? Just act like you normally do.”
Kang So-ra saying that she will not be disturbed is not a good situation for me.
This means that you will completely stay in your room and not be seen by me except when you are eating. If you do that, you will not be able to achieve what you want.
What I want is to use this incident as an excuse to harass Kang So-ra as much as I want.
As long as it doesn’t cross her line, she will have no choice but to accept my harassment.
Until the contract is completely completed, it will be difficult to show no matter how bad you feel.
‘Because he seems like a pretty weak person.’
He seemed like a very strong-willed person at work, but he seems to be weaker-hearted than I thought.
Since she is in debt to me, even if she is harassed, she will not be able to resist strongly.
Having made all the plans in my head, I slowly stretched out my hand and grabbed Kang So-ra’s pale hand to see her reaction.
“Huh?!”
“There’s nothing we can do about it because it’s already happened. Let’s just live without causing any inconvenience to each other.”
“Yes… Ah, I understand.”
“First, now that we’ve unpacked, we need to eat. Shall we go down to the buffet below?”
“Yes… As you wish…”
I enjoy Kang So-ra’s surprised reaction when she is suddenly grabbed by her hand.
She is 33 years old and has never had any experience with a man, so she would not be immune to this kind of touch, but she is not taking her hand away.
Seeing her not reacting at all, I laughed to myself and went downstairs to the buffet to eat together.
———————
When I went downstairs, the number of people was slowly increasing as lunchtime was starting.
‘Once again here.’
In a confusing place with more people, she slowly reaches out and takes Kang So-ra’s hand.
“Hit?!”
“There are a lot of people, so we might fall, so let’s just stay like this for a while.”
“… Yes.”
Kang So-ra was embarrassed when I held her hand again, but I felt a little strength in her hand as if she agreed with what I said.
I entered the buffet while holding her hand, and as soon as I entered, I let go of her hand and said.
“I think the seat over there would be good, what do you think?”
“It’s okay.”
“Then let’s quickly grab our food and sit down.”
“Yes.”
Just today, I already held her hand twice, leaving her blushing face behind her, holding her plate, picking out her buffet food, and moving to the pre-arranged seat.
