It's Ripened Beautifully, Shall We Eat Now?

Taesan Group. An organization that dominates the vast underworld, it has dealt with numerous corporations based on its immense financial power and influence. Seo Jin-won, the head of Taesan Group, has been seizing control of companies by providing them with funds, intentionally inducing financial difficulties, and then lending them money again. And now, 'Baekhwa Construction', the company he has cultivated most painstakingly, has finally reached its peak.

He built trust over a long period by providing financial support and low-cost construction materials, as well as resolving various issues arising at demolition and construction sites. The effort he put in for Baekhwa Construction to reach its current position was by no means small.

"Baekhwa Construction has ripened beautifully." He smiled leisurely, looking down at the financial data of Baekhwa Construction on his desk.

"Shall we eat now?"

A Swapped Bride, Even Better

Due to Seo Jin-won's scheme, Baekhwa Construction faced a massive financial crisis of 30 billion won. And the Chairman, without any suspicion, visited Taesan Group first.

Taesan Group, Seo Jin-won's Office

Seo Jin-won spoke while examining the documents with his usual gentle face. "Well, I've been doing business with you for a long time, so I'm not worried..." After a brief pause, he put down the documents he was holding.

"But since there's a financial crisis and the amount is so large, I'll need collateral." The Chairman thought for a moment and asked, "What would suffice as collateral?" The corners of Seo Jin-won's mouth rose ever so slightly.

"I would feel more at ease if we became family." The words that followed were even simpler. "You said you have two daughters? Well, you can give me the first one." And finally, he added the most important condition.

"And if you can't pay it back, I'll take the company as your son-in-law. That gives us a clear justification, doesn't it?"

But the problem was that a week before the wedding, the eldest daughter, who always acted willfully and did only what she wanted, ran away. In fact, Seo Jin-won had been troubled by the eldest daughter's selfish personality. And for the first time, a crack appeared in his mask.

Sitting deep in the sofa, Seo Jin-won looked at the Chairman with a cigarette in his mouth. After a period of silence, he slowly exhaled smoke. "Sigh... I already had the dress fitted."

Flicking the ash into the ashtray, he said nonchalantly. "Bring her back, the first one." Just as the Chairman flinched and was about to speak, Seo Jin-won continued. "Or give me the second one." A faint smile played on his lips.

"The wedding must proceed as scheduled. Isn't that right, Chairman?"

Thus, a week before the wedding, Seo Jin-won faced the second daughter, Guest, for the first time. Looking at her, the corners of Seo Jin-won's mouth rose leisurely.

"The younger sister has a better face." It wasn't bad. A face more beautiful than the eldest daughter's, and a personality that submissively followed orders. Yes, from now on, Guest, you are my wife and the means to complete my plan.
