The Youngest Son Of A Rich Family - Chapter 241
[241] The Sky Falls 2
Grandpa is the person I spent the longest time with in this reborn life.
They expected a lot from me and I did not disappoint them. So I got a lot out of it.
The last words I left before the end of my life are for me. This fact came to mean more than the group’s controlling stake.
After saying that, I just looked at my grandfather who had lost his mind again for a while.
The way he smiled brightly and hugged me when we first met.
He was no different from an ordinary old man who boasted of his 10th-ranked college entrance exam score all over town.
He was thrilled when he handed out 1 billion dollars.
He was proud of the fact that he had Ajin Group in his hands, and he didn’t know what to do.
The memories of the past overlapped with the current image of him facing death, making his vision blurry.
But I had to come to my senses.
An uproar echoes through the ward. It seems people are coming.
I have to get out of the room before they enter. After all, it is the children, not the grandchildren, who should see death the closest.
Standing in the hallway of the hospital room, I bowed my head toward the running uncles.
But they didn’t even look at me and ran straight into the room.
“father!”
The children’s cries could be heard from outside. He hasn’t died yet…. I moved to the cafe at the end of the hallway, thinking how nice it would be if I was surprised and came to my senses.

Breaking into a cold sweat, the hospital director explained Chairman Jin’s condition to the ferocious brothers once again.
“I think everyone should prepare their minds. It’s not that much time.”
“Is there no chance of recovery?”
“…yes.”
The hospital director was worried about what would happen if he screamed again, but that didn’t happen.
Vice Chairman Jin Young-ki closed his eyes and hung his head.
“Now that everyone is here, I have something to tell you. In this state, it is difficult for the president to exceed 48 hours. You can use a more forcible medical device if you want…”
“You mean intubation?”
The vibrator vice president frowned and asked.
“yes. However, the president usually does not use such physical equipment…”
“Don’t do it. Let it go naturally and comfortably.”
Jinyounggi said firmly.
Even if it is not recommended by the hospital director, he remembers all of his father’s request not to forcefully slow down his way.
“yes. All right.”
The hospital director quietly left the room, and the doctor in charge waited quietly in the corner of the room.
“But what about my mother? Can’t you contact me yet?”
Jin Seo-yoon asked the three older brothers, but no one answered.
“What the hell are you doing? What if my mother can’t reach me? Wouldn’t there be an attendant?”
“The attendants are also out of contact. I ended up getting a phone call when my father was admitted to the hospital.”
At the words of the vibrator with a sigh, Jin Seo-yoon started to glar at Jin Young-gi.
“Older brother. I should send the secretarial kids to find it! And what about Hyekyung? Isn’t that girl sticking close to her mother? Can’t you reach your daughter?”
“I only confirmed that he had left the Swiss villa. After that, he didn’t answer the phone. My mother must have stopped it.”
“You mean that now?! What if I can’t even see my father’s death?”
Jin Young-gi glared at Jin Seo-yoon, who was screaming sharply.
“Isn’t it because you didn’t know I was avoiding the phone so I wouldn’t see my deathbed? and you? Where the hell is the daughter who doesn’t even know her mother’s phone number? Where are you talking about that subject? Loud!”
“Let’s lower our voice. Does that sound like that now?”
Vibrator spoke to the two of them and only sighed. It is clear that the mother, who hates and despises the father intensely, does not care in the least about his father’s death.
It is okay not to observe the end of life. Please only show up before the funeral. Family isn’t the only place at a funeral. A camera may be mobilized and the entire nation may watch.
However, if you can’t see the wife of Jo Kang, there might be some other speculation going around, and if the wrong rumors are circulating, there’s no more disgrace to the family than that.
I just wish you to return home as soon as possible. The reason I don’t worry too much is that my mother also values face. At least at the funeral, you will be able to show the grieving wife.
“Here’s the doctor.”
“Ah yes?”
The doctor in charge, who was standing in the corner, was startled and approached the vibrator vice president.
“Will there be time for us to leave for a while?”
“yes?”
“I’m asking if something big will happen in an hour or two. Are you okay?”
“yes.”
It was a meaningless question, so the doctor in charge answered dryly.
It should be considered that the probability of waking up from this lost state is almost zero. The rest of the time is just breathing. There is no reason why you must watch the moment of death.
When Vibrator confirmed the doctor’s answer, he winked at his older brother, Jin Young-ki.
The two of them came out of the room and asked for a cigarette.
“You really can’t reach your mother?”
“I’m going crazy too.”
Jinyoung-gi inhaled smoke a couple of times and threw the cigarette away.
“why? Did you talk?”
“you?”
“They don’t answer my calls at all. Still, my mother is the eldest son, so you don’t listen to my older brother.”
“How many times did you get it? But it’s always the same thing. That old man is so tired that he doesn’t die easily. He told me not to bother because he’ll be there when the time is right.”
“You have to come this time…”
Jin Young-gi, who knows what his brother is thinking, said with a sigh.
“I put a text message when I got the call earlier. He said he would have a hard time passing through the day, so he must have boarded a plane. You have that kind of notice.”
“You must come, but if you do wrong, it will be a real disgrace to the family…”
“Maybe my father’s death will be buried forever.”
“huh? What else do you mean by that?”
Vibrator’s eyes widened at his brother’s sudden words.
“It’s noisy these days. Because of the president.”
“What do we have to do with that? The presidential election funding problem has almost all subsided.”
“Maybe I will be impeached.”
“what? impeachment?”
“okay. It looks like it was prepared well over there. I was just looking for a chance, and I caught a pod.”
“no way? That much impeachment? would that be possible?”
The vibrator, frowning as if it were a vague sound, shook its head slightly.
“They were confident that the impeachment bill would pass the National Assembly. As the ruling party splits, the number of members of the opposition party is now overwhelming.”
Vibrator was not comfortable because of Jin Young-gi, who was getting stronger and stronger.
There is no one who can pass on such advanced information to himself. There are not one or two members of the National Assembly in Yeouido, but the most important information goes only to Sunyang’s eldest son.
It’s not like it’s not true, but after the funeral, as my brother said, the position of the eldest son, Jin Young-ki, will be more solid on the outside, so I kept getting anxious.
“If so, I think it will end with the suspension of the president’s duties? The regime will not really end as it is.”
Seeing Jin Young-ki grinning at his words, he felt sorry for him.
My older brother had other thoughts, and I couldn’t read them. You also have to pretend to be proud and watch yourself look down on yourself.
“Does anyone have an idea? Will you completely change the regime?”
Jin Young-gi shook his head at the startled vibrator’s question.
“I am not interested in that. I found out that if the impeachment bill passes the National Assembly, the Constitutional Court can drag off the maximum of six months.”
Only then did Vibrator realize his brother’s intentions.
“It will be six months of chaos.”
“okay. This is the first ever presidential impeachment. There’s a general election soon. It is clear that the world’s attention will be focused on the Blue House and Yeouido rather than on my father’s death. We must not miss this moment and move forward with our plan.”
“Six months where no one will be interested no matter what we do?”
“yes. You must never miss this opportunity.”
“Did my father give us presents even after he died?”
“At the funeral, most of the people we need will come to pay their respects. Then we have to finish talking.”
The brothers looked at each other and briefly smiled, but quickly erased it. Isn’t it time to hide your laughter?
“Let’s listen. I have to protect you.”

I arrived at the hospital thoroughly.
The daughters-in-law also entered the hospital room with nervous faces on their faces, and soon after, several presidents of affiliates arrived.
They stopped at the hospital room to check on the grandfather’s condition, then went out and found Chief Lee Hak-jae. Death is the responsibility of the family.
Grandchildren are also starting to appear.
The first person to arrive was Jin Yeongjun, the eldest son.
“Oh brother.”
“uh? Do-joon. You came early too.”
I took his outstretched hand.
I haven’t seen him for quite some time, and the atmosphere he exudes has changed drastically.
I don’t know if it’s because of his age in his mid-thirties and his position at the company, but his immature appearance is nowhere to be found.
“How is your grandfather?”
A low moan escaped his mouth as I shook my head slightly.
“Hmm…today…?”
“maybe.”
“let’s go.”
We walked shoulder to shoulder into the hospital room.
The large special room was full and I took a seat in a corner.
Jin Yeong-joon made his way through the crowd and approached the bed.
As cousins continued to arrive, the hospital room became cramped, so only the children were left, and the rest came out into the hallway.
The sadness of not being able to share his grandfather’s last breath weighed on his heart. I wiped and wiped, but the tears did not dry.
I didn’t even check how many hours had passed. I wished that this time would be a little longer, but my wish did not come true.
“father!!”
“father! Sobbing.”
When crying and sighing broke out in the hospital room, I ran like crazy.
When the doctor removed the oxygen mask, the grandfather’s expression was revealed. A perfectly expressionless face.
I couldn’t bear to put my hand on his face.
My aunt hugged my grandfather’s neck and began to weep, and I grabbed my half-excited spirit and dragged my feet to my grandfather’s side.
I squeezed through the people surrounding the bed and squeezed my grandfather’s hand, which was still warm.
I hope it wasn’t a painful death.
I hope there was not a single moment of regret.
I hope there was not a single second of time I wanted to erase in my life over eighty.
I begged and begged so much.
For a while, only the sound of crying and wailing echoed in the hospital room.
And a sound that didn’t match at all came out, and with that sound as a signal, the sound of wailing also died down.
“Ha grandma.”
It was because one of the grandchildren screamed close to screaming when she found the grandmother standing at the entrance of the hospital room.
“Oh mother!”
“mom! why are you so late You should have kept your father’s deathbed!”
“It’s not too late. It came just in time.”
Unlike my aunt who shouted with tears dripping down my face, my grandmother had a cold expression that did not shake in the slightest.
“mother! What do you mean now?”
“mom! What do you mean now?”
My uncle and aunt said with absurd expressions, but my grandmother did not waver at all.
“I don’t want to breathe the same air as him. So you came on time.”
I couldn’t believe my ears
I know grandma hates grandpa, but in front of the deceased… are you saying that in front of your children and grandchildren?
But this wasn’t the end.
My grandmother, who found me, raised her hand and pointed.
“Why are you here?”
My hands were shaking as if seeing me was harder than my grandfather’s death.
