The next two days were also busy days due to all the work related to P.M.E's launch in two months.
Yo-han as the boss faced more challenging issues as he was trying to perform his normal duties and at the same time prevent Mr Geum from getting the design out to V motors. It is unbelievable how great Mr Geum's network is, he managed to get the design to the underworld and after a few trades with some Lord's of the underworld, it will eventually get to V motors. This, Yo-han has to stop as soon as possible.
He and Ron had meetings with some Mafia Lords to bargain for the design and stop it from getting to V motors.
If we wouldn't forget Yo-Han is also considered a Mafia Lord, he inherited Wang Dae-Woong's mafia and turned it to PiA but still, the mafia still exists in the underworld, it only runs as PiA to the real world, a part of it still goes with the mafia theme.
His influence in the underworld is strong due to the fact that he succeeded Wang Dae-Woong as the Ridder, if not he wouldn't get to achieve a thing at all. Though he hasn't manage to stop the transmission of the design, he easily got reliable information about Seung-Heon's and Kim Do-Joon's cahoots, more details of their plans and a list of Mr Geum's connections working with him to get the design to V motors. The old man had to use this channel since Yo-han blocked every other channels available.
From several 'behind the mask' meetings, Yo-Han had to rush over to meetings organized by several of those government officials, an evidence that the Prime Minister had cajoled and threatened the several officials to bend to his will like he asked.
Just as expected, the government officials started working on his requests as if they owe him a great favour which they have to repay. It was good because at the pace at which they are getting things done, it might not be difficult to launch P.M.E in two months. This way, his meetings with the mafia Lords will be for the sake of being on the safe side.
These meetings upon meetings took up his whole day making him really tired and craving his mother's cooking. This craving made him switch the direction from his home to his mother's. "Mr Seo, take me to mother's Villa."
"Okay Boss."
The car slowly pulled over at the front of the building after about half an hour of anticipation. He got off the car and was about to walk into the building when he noticed a strange car parked at the side. It strangely didn't look like something his mother would have bought out of interest, rather it looked like someone visited. Who that person is, he could only guess, he has no certainty.
He pushed that aside and proudly made his way into Min Ju-Eun's majestic palace. An abode he specifically and diligently seek out for.
She wanted a simple lifestyle but he persuaded her and gave her a life of luxury because he wanted her to stand out among women, he wanted for her to be treated like a queen and since the very first breakthrough of Min Corporation, he started to treat his mother better than the crème de la crème of the socialites.
He got her a mansion, a number of maids to do the chores, a butler, a chauffeur to take her where ever she wants to go, sufficient money to cater for all her needs and every other thing that would make her happy, he provided.
His only problem with her is her refusal to stop working. She says she is not at retirement age yet and will not stop working until it's the right time. If she had listened to him earlier, their is no way Kim Hyun-Jun would have found her.
Contrary to how he treats his mom, he barely spends so much money on himself. For example, even though his home is quite exquisite, 'he lives in an apartment block', so unfit for a big CEO of his calibre. His cars come from the company so he doesn't need to buy them, he doesn't have needs to use his money for and all he does is to work, work, work, and not spend.
He laughed at himself quietly as he followed the Butler leading him to the living room and as they got closer a very familiar voice started to resound in Yo-Han's ears.
"Butler Lee, who visited?" Yo-han asked for a confirmation of his guess. 'if it's who I think it is then... Oh no, what is he doing here?, he is the last person I wish to see today.'
"Young Master Han, it's CEO Kim Hyun-Jun, he arrived about an hour ago. He is in the living room with Madam Min." The Butler replied and said nothing more until he had to announce Yo-Han's presence. Yo-han did not wait for the man to say a word, he went straight into the living room and saw Kim Hyun-Jun seating on a sofa opposite the one his mother sat in, quietly listening to her words.
"... Wow, that's great you are really... Oh Yo-han, Yo-han you are here." Min Ju-Eun notice Yo-Han's presence in the middle of her discussion with Kim Hyun-Jun. The man also turned to look at Yo-han with a smile laced on his face.
Yo-han bowed in greetings to his mother and only took a glance at Kim Hyun-Jun before settling himself in a seat. There was no way the mood won't turn awkward but Yo-Han simply didn't care.
"Mom, What's for dinner?, I am so famished." Yo-han turned to face Min Ju-Eun with a smile.
From the other side, Kim Hyun-Jun felt ignored though he didn't mind, he understood Yo-Han's actions but he wanted to fix their relationship so he tried to have a conversation. "Yo-han, ahem, son, how was your day?"
"Uhm, It was great, great until I found out you are here, then it started taking a turn to be as terrible as hell." Yo-Han replied arrogantly.
At first Min Ju-Eun was glad that Yo-han replied Kim Hyun-Jun but after listening to his full speech, she became very furious at him. "Yo-han!, If you don't eat up your words first and behave yourself, you will starve tonight. Show some respect, would you?!." She yelled and glared angrily at him and turned to Kim Hyun-Jun. "Please don't mind him."
"It's okay, I understand that I am yet to earn your respect but I only wish you let me try." Kim Hyun-Jun said to Yo-han. He glanced at his watch and rose to his feet. "I should get going, it's getting late." He then walked out of the living room and left the building with Min Ju-Eun tailing behind him asking him not to take Yo-han too seriously.
"Ju-Eun, he is my son, I can't get angry at him because I messed up. I am 23years late and I understand that it's going to be difficult to make things smooth again. At least you forgave me, I am okay with that for now. Surely I will find a way to make him accept me sooner or later, you don't have to worry." Kim Hyun-Jun said to Min Ju-Eun before getting into his car. He smiled at Min Ju-Eun but his smile froze when Yo-Han's voice rang in his ears again.
"Don't bother about me, you should bother about your beloved Kim Do-Joon instead, he is a pain in my ass and when I get a hold of him, you would tear up for his sake." Yo-han reported and turned around to get back into the building.
Kim Hyun-Jun's smile disappeared immediately and a troubled expression assumed his face. A burden seemed to suddenly have dropped on his chest but he erased every traces of his troubles and hid away his worries behind an emotionless face very quickly. He set the car in motion and drove away from the Villa.
Even though he tried to cover his worries, Min Ju-Eun still managed to notice his change in mood and understood what was going on in his mind. She hurried inside and went on to find Yo-han.
"Yo-Han. Yo-Han", she checked the living room but didn't find him, she called the Butler and asked for Yo-Han's whereabouts. It was quite difficult to know of his whereabouts because in the big building, it is a bit of a task to find someone easily.
She finally found Yo-han in the kitchen putting food in the microwave. The big CEO preparing his own meal when the maids are around. It is obvious that Yo-han asked them not to help with his food.
When Min Ju-Eun entered the Kitchen she dismissed the maids for privacy before she started bombarding Yo-han with questions. " Yo-han about what you just said, what's going on with you and Kim Do-Joon?, His he picking a bone with you because you guys are half brothers?, He probably must be scared that he may lose his heirship to you, is that why, How did they find out that you are Kim Hyun-Jun's son?, Don't do anything stupid all because you don't want to acknowledge Hyun-Jun as your father, I am happy that I met him again, do you wish to see me sad one more time?, If not..."
"Hold on, first name basis huh?, What's your relationship with that man actually?" Yo-han asked without answering any of her previous questions.
Min Ju-Eun paused and stuttered for words to reply Yo-han but she just could not find the words to retort with.
