The room that was in the annex was moved to the main building. Young Yoo Yeon-seo couldn't adapt to the changed environment and got out of bed.

Walking blankly down the corridor, he sensed a loud noise coming from his grandfather's study and headed in that direction.

"We've decided to settle the case."

"Father!"

Through the partially open door, his grandfather and father were facing off.

Yoo Geon-min glared at Chairman Yoo with bloodshot eyes.

"You're not going that way. You know it too, Father."

"Geon-min, let's stop this."

"There's definitely a reason!"

"For how long?"

The restrained Chairman Yoo burst out.

"How long are you going to do this?!"

Although the circumstances of the incident had already concluded that Lee Hee-seo had committed suicide, it was still unresolved due to Yoo Geon-min's insistence on further investigation.

"We need to keep going until we catch the culprit!"

"The culprit, right. You said it well. Then who is the culprit?"

Yoo Geon-min remained silent. Despite his efforts, he still couldn't find any leads on the culprit. He was the only one who believed there was a culprit in the first place.

"Just a little more, just a little more searching..."

"Your stubbornness isn't worth consuming police resources. Do you understand?"

Already, rumors surrounding Lee Hee-seo's death were spiraling out of control, and on top of that, the conglomerate was being criticized in the media for wasting police resources.

Stock prices were declining due to the owner's risk. There was nothing to gain by dragging it out.

"Are you going to wait until the child has another seizure? Stop it!"

Furthermore, Yoo Yeon-seo had collapsed again after just being discharged from the hospital due to the numerous police and detectives swarming the annex for the reinvestigation.

"But..."

"Stop talking nonsense and listen to your father!"

Chairman Yoo stood up abruptly. Despite his age, he had a considerable presence in front of his son.

"You're neglecting your work at the company and obsessing over the case. I understand. I understand! But what about Eun-ho and Yeon-seo? Are they going to be left alone like that?"

"······."

"Eun-ho has been working hard, and the whole family has been making efforts to support Yeon-seo. But what about you, Geon-min?"

Chairman Yoo had been busy trying to recover from the owner's risk. Park Geum-joo was suffering from depression, making it difficult for her to take care of herself.

Even Yoo Eun-ho, who had told him to take care of his brother first, was only eleven years old. He was a child who needed protection.

"Do you even know what Eun-ho has been doing all this time?"

Chairman Yoo's daughters had their own jobs and children to take care of, but they still came by whenever they had time. However, at the time when Geon-min should have been filling the void that parents should have filled, he was busy chasing after an elusive culprit.
