While Yoo Yeon-seo was rolling in the action school, Im Seung-hyun briefly visited the Joo Sung Group headquarters. This was to handle the expenses incurred during the process of bringing in Itaegyeom and to find records of the predecessor who handled Yoo Yeon-seo.

"I need detailed information about the master."

Details about what he likes and dislikes, etc. Knowing these details was deemed necessary for working under Yoo Yeon-seo.

As he opened the door to the Strategic Planning Headquarters, vacant seats were noticeable here and there in the office. Everyone, like Im Seung-hyun, was out in the field assisting the Yu family.

"Hello."

"Oh? Mr. Seung-hyun. Is work manageable?"

"Yes."

The employee who exchanged greetings with Im Seung-hyun looked at him with a strange expression while observing his back. It had been over a month since he took over as Yoo Yeon-seo's manager, but there hadn't been any special instructions from the master yet. Moreover, Im Seung-hyun seemed to be in a better mood than when he was sitting in the office.

Im Seung-hyun quickly wrote a report on the expense handling as he sat down. The head of the Strategic Planning Headquarters was an old executive who handled Chairman Yu Chang-ho and Vice Chairman Yu Geon-min.

"What brings you here? Aren't you busy these days?"

"I just stopped by after finding the master's manager. I was planning to finish work and leave right away."

"I see. How's the manager?"

Im Seung-hyun hesitated for a moment.

'Come to think of it, why did the head of the headquarters come here?'

He counted the days he spent in the office, and he rarely saw the person in charge of the chairman and vice-chairman. But why did he come right after Im Seung-hyun briefly visited the office?

'Not the head of the headquarters, but... the chairman must be curious.'

Im Seung-hyun rolled his eyes. He was instructed to report everything about attacks on Yoo Yeon-seo. But even if it was for Yoo Yeon-seo, it wasn't comfortable to report about everything. Reporting about something else felt like being a spy.

'Well, this should be fine.'

After a moment of thought, Im Seung-hyun opened his mouth.

"Except for having a sharp personality, he's fine. His past is clean too. Personally, it seemed good to see him getting along with the master like friends."

"I see."

To change the subject, Im Seung-hyun looked around. People in the office were strangely quiet.

"I don't see a few people here?"

"Yes, they moved to other departments."

"Is that so?"

He thought it was trivial. Rather, he disliked people who cut others' future in front of them. He still couldn't forget the day when he became Yoo Yeon-seo's manager, and a farewell party was held.

"It seems the employees under the master didn't last long, and... Is everything okay?"

"Yes, it's fine. Unlike rumors... it's someone else."

The head of the headquarters scrutinized Im Seung-hyun's expression. He looked perfectly fine.

"I'll go see the master now. Sir."

"Do you need to report to Executive Director-nim?"

"I work under the master, not the executive director."
