At that time, at that time, we
25


Where should I start? Attend a company meeting, hold a press conference, or hold an interview.

Even though I was a minor, it was already a familiar social situation.

My father, who had not even glanced at me during the entire meeting, stood in front of me after the meeting was over.

강회장
Have you seen the article? This is what you will enjoy in the future.

I nodded at that.


강다니엘
Yes, it's mine..

A look that seems a little reluctant to what I say


강다니엘
There's a press conference...

I avoided that spot and walked away.

After the press conference, I sat down, feeling exhausted.


강다니엘
Ha... Secretary Hwang

Secretary Hwang sat down next to Niel, who sighed tiredly.

Secretary Hwang answers with a look of pity

황비서
yes..


강다니엘
..will I be able to do it well..?

황비서
You will do well.

It was like a small consolation.

Niel nods and walks away

The press conference that just ended was followed by another press conference, where a major announcement was made.

I leave this message saying that I will do my best in the position given to me by the Chairman.

In just a few minutes, the news and articles posted on the internet...

Chairman Kang's son, Kang Daniel, owns a significant stake in the company despite being a minor.

Kang Gun, a promising young man, will do his best in his position.

A major announcement is scheduled for Kang Gun's congratulatory party tomorrow evening.

The world has become noisy... At this point, Daniel feels his influence again.

And it seems like I've decided on something I've been thinking about for a while now.

A beautifully decorated restaurant

Daniel was sitting there looking a little nervous.

Not long after, footsteps were heard.

The person who walked in was Jaehwan, followed by Yeri and Joy.


강다니엘
..are you here?


예리
...huh..

Jaehwan, unable to bear to watch the slightly awkward greeting, makes Yeri sit in front of Daniel and opens his mouth with a smile.


김재환
Did you rent the whole place? There's no one there?


강다니엘
Yeah... I thought it would be noisy if it was too noticeable.

Jaehwan nods at those words


조이
We're going out, call me, Yeri.

The two people who were trying to get away with it affectionately linked arms and left.

A space where a little silence flows


강다니엘
I won't say sorry anymore..

Yeri lifts her head and looks at Daniel at Daniel's words.


강다니엘
.. I am ..


강다니엘
Even though I seem to have a lot, I live every day as if I lack something.


강다니엘
Unlike other people... it seems a little bit lacking...


강다니엘
Living a life where I want to do what I want, expressing myself and speaking... is awkward.


강다니엘
The whole world is focused on me now, so there are a lot of things I need to be careful about, and that means I'll have a lot more to acquire.


강다니엘
It's my first time too, so I'm scared, but... if you're by my side, I won't let go of your hand, no matter what the reason is...


강다니엘
I will rise above this world for you... I will never make it hard for you like that again...


강다니엘
Even though it's a little risky... and it might take some time...


강다니엘
Yeri...

Yeri opened her mouth and lifted her head at Niel's call.


예리
Ah... wait a minute...


예리
I still don't know. Everything you say is difficult.. I can't even imagine..


예리
therefore..


예리
Please protect me without letting go of my hand.. I think that will be enough..
