The Youngest Son Of A Rich Family - Chapter 273
[273] Filial sons 1
Everyone wondered why they were using their mother’s name, but only managing director Byung-Jun Woo, who knew everything about our family, hit his forehead and burst into laughter.
“haha. This is really… what to say… if the lady knows, you might collapse with foam on your face… hehe.”
“If that’s the case, it’s perfect.”
After reading the sincerity in my words, Managing Director Woo Byeong-jun hurriedly laughed.
“sorry. It’s too exquisite, so I’ll stop…”
“It’s not something you’ll even apologize for. it’s okay.”
Those who guessed what our conversation was about pretended not to have seen or heard while digging through the documents.
I spoke to Cheon Sang-pil to clear the heavy air in the room.
“The money promised is being processed now. Don’t worry, we’ll let you know as soon as it’s done. Take care of your work tomorrow.”
Looking at him nodding his head, I opened the stock status file.
Tomorrow morning Grandma will be broke.

“Your aunt is trying not to be kicked out.”
Vice Chairman Jin Young-ki strode in while looking around the hotel restaurant, sitting in a chair with a satisfied expression on his face.
“What are you talking about?”
“I mean the hotel. It’s been a while since I came here, but it’s very different from before. It looks much more sophisticated and modern. The staff’s expressions are also nice and have improved.”
“I heard that department store sales continue to rise. I think my aunt is a person with great potential.”
“Didn’t you have a role?”
There may be some degree of heartache, but I’m going to pass it up anyway. You don’t have to answer seriously.
“I have money invested in Miracle, but it is across the bridge. What is my role… to use it often to raise sales…?”
“His dexterity is also natural… I like it. Hehe.”
After drinking a glass of water, the food came out. Since it was Korean food, there were many side dishes, but my uncle rarely used chopsticks.
He asked after a short meal.
“What do you really want?”
“I already told my second uncle everything. Didn’t you hear?”
“You don’t want to look like grandma?”
Simplifying matters is excellent. I’ll sum it up in one word.
“I guess you could say that.”
“Actually, my mother was a bit harsh. I was impatient because I couldn’t eat my Jesu, but I never thought it would lead to you like that… There were times when I frowned when I saw it.”
What is the reason for making such a joke? Do you still think I don’t know about borrowed-name stocks?
“Then you will understand me.”
“of course. So, as the best adult in the family, I plan to clean things up.”
“Tell me.”
“As you wish, Mother will never let you set foot on Korean soil again. You will spend the rest of your life as if you were living in exile in a foreign country. Of course, if you become so weak that you can’t even move, we’ll have to take care of you. Aren’t you going to stay in the hospital anyway?”
“There are many good hospitals abroad.”
“what?”
The face that had been smiling softly was distorted in an instant.
“Because this guy wants to see you. You child! is that what you mean? No matter how much you hate it, do you think the guest house can do it?”
“Uncle. Since you asked me what I wanted, I told you my honest heart. Isn’t that the grandmother who pushed her grandson in a truck? No matter how much I hate my grandson, is this reasonable?”
People in this family will keep their mouths shut when talking about trucks. Because my grandfather was there at the time.
“Uncle. If you have something to say, just do it. Right now, my thoughts don’t seem to matter.”
He glared at me and drank a glass of water.
“My mother will continue to live abroad. However, we cannot allow him to live a real life in exile. I plan to support enough money so that there is no inconvenience in staying. This is something you cannot stop.”
The son of the richest family in Korea is said to be filial, but he has no intention of stopping it.
“Is this what you want? So, pick up what you spilled on the opposition party again. Don’t you know that it’s not good for our cruiser names to go up and down in the world?”
“Is that all?”
“You have Cheon Sang-pil, right? I heard that he knows a lot about his mother’s mistakes. Don’t think about using him for nothing. I will organize the art foundation so that there is no mess.”
Seeing that I don’t even talk about borrowed-name stocks, I think I don’t know about it, or borrowed-name stocks seem to be out of my interest.
When I didn’t say anything, he went on to say that his idea was the best way to benefit everyone.
I just listened to him. You don’t know how fortunate I am to spend time talking like this.
What kind of expression would you make if you knew my actions that quickly ended in just one day?
After talking excitedly for a while, he stopped talking and took out his cell phone from the inside pocket of his jacket.
“wait for a sec.”
I opened the folder of the trembling phone.
“what’s the matter?”
The voice of the other party, which was difficult to understand, leaked out.
“what?”
I was so surprised that I even knocked over a chair and stood up.
My uncle started staring at me without taking the phone off his ear. Did you notice the stock movement in Myeongdong?
There must be people who will be eyes and ears already sprinkled here and there.
“You bastard…!”
The hand holding the unhung up phone trembled.
“I heard that our sunyang stocks are moving a lot right now. Are you the one doing this?”
It is not polite to sit while an adult is standing. He said he got up slowly.
“I don’t know what my uncle said to lawyer Cheon Sang-pil, but he asked me for help. So I took it out… Didn’t you say you would sell stocks right away? I have a habit of buying blue chip stocks… He said he would pay a little more than the market price.”
“Is stock what you were aiming for from the beginning?”
“It’s a bonus. Did I tell you what I wanted?”
“hey!”
“I plan to continue to leak information to the opposition party.”
“Neither stocks nor mother will go your way. No matter how messy you are, a few calls from me will calm you down. A hundred years is not enough for you to stand up to me.”
“Let it be. But so far is just the prologue. If the opposition party stops, the prosecution will move. If you stop that, it will explode in America. If the Korean Consulate General was involved in smuggling, isn’t it a diplomatic problem? If Uncle Father blocks the US too… Grandma will return to Korea.”
“You are so crazy. what? USA?”
“I am very excited to see how you will take the stock. The scenario is drawn roughly…”
I want to let you know that nothing is easy.
“Where is the movie released according to the scenario? Production company’s influence. Director’s correction. Actor’s whim. There are many things that are caught in the theater with completely different content from the scenario. A movie is known only after final editing is done.”
Grandpa laughed. He still looks confident.
“Don’t be fooled and accept my offer. It’s not too late.”
“sorry. Let alone digesting what you ate for breakfast, I’m telling you something that might upset you. Thanks for the suggestion, but I can’t. I just want to go as I please.”
Oh no, my uncle hasn’t hung up the phone yet.
I don’t know who it is, but I’m sure you’ve heard all our conversations and your shitline will burn.
I would have been paid a lot of money to be good at stock monitoring…. Because it turned into a failure, I had to regurgitate it all.

“The real name conversion is complete. Everything was transferred to the name of the director’s mother.”
Vice President Jang Do-hyeong held out a thick bundle of papers.
“You worked hard.”
I said to Cheon Sang-pil, who had a refreshing expression.
“Have you checked your account?”
“yes. The down payment was well received.”
Unsatisfied with 100 million dollars, this man is wrong to live a normal life.
“I will definitely give you the balance.”
reached out to him
“Now meet your family, rest and decide where to settle. We will look after it until the end.”
“Thank you for your concern. Chief Jin Do-jun.”
Cheon Sang-pil bowed his head to me, and Woo Byeong-jun, managing director, said.
“Shall we leave now? At Incheon or Gimpo International Airport, Vice Chairman Jin Young-ki’s people will be camped out. Cheon Sang-pil will cross over to Japan by ship from Busan Port, where he will board a plane to Bali.”
“Are you stowing away?”
When Cheon Sang-pil’s face was filled with fear, managing director Woo Byung-jun burst into laughter.
“You have seen a lot of movies. There are many passenger ships going to Japan. I can go to Fukuoka in three hours. Take care of your passport. haha.”
After confirming that Cheon Sang-pil was leaving for Busan, he headed to his parents’ house.
The hardest part of this job still remains.
It felt like coming home after a long time. My mother was busy preparing dinner and my busy father returned early.
“I’m sure you didn’t come to see your parents, what’s going on?”
“I came with both sides. Do you think I am an unfilial son who doesn’t even say hello?”
“If you want to see our faces, you reserve a restaurant first. I hate to see you working in your mother’s kitchen.”
The father pointed to the mother who was bustling in the kitchen.
“So. But today I will eat at home. I thought the restaurant would be noisy if I said it outside.”
“What else? What accident did you have?”
“I’ll talk to you after dinner.”
After dinner prepared by my mother, the two of us sat in the living room.
“So what are you talking about?”
First of all, I told you about my grandmother’s art trade. Father’s face hardened when he learned that the Sunyang Arts Foundation was completely ruined.
“So you mean you bought the group stock by selling all the paintings?”
“yes. I bought it step by step for a long time. Among them are unlisted stocks. I secretly bought the stocks that my grandfather split from the founders, so they are quite valuable.”
I couldn’t bear to say that I had dug a trap.
“Are all those stocks in borrowed names?”
“yes.”
I think my father already noticed what I was talking about.
“And I don’t know how, but you got the stock?”
“you’re right. How did you know?”
“If the stock ended up in your uncle’s hands, you wouldn’t bother reporting it to us.”
My father said it calmly, as if it was nothing.
“Do you mean to be prepared because my older brothers might yell at me?”
“yes. This time, the mother also needs to hold on tight.”
The mother’s big eyes widened.
“I?”
“yes. I transferred all of my grandmother’s borrowed-name stocks this time to my mother’s name. The exact stake must be confirmed with Chairman Lee Hak-jae, but it will be more than 3% of the group’s controlling stake.”
“Oh, you moved your mother’s share to me…?”
“yes.”
It would have been much more shocking to have the group share than the number, plus the mother-in-law’s share. Mother spoke even though she stuttered.
My father just opened his mouth in amazement.
“Isn’t it natural for the daughter-in-law who suffered the most to inherit? Mothers deserve it.”
The mother was quickly out of shock. No matter how you look at it, he doesn’t seem to be burdened with stocks or worried about being attacked by his relatives.
“Do-joon.”
“yes.”
Her mother, who had regained her composure, spoke in a calm voice.
“Thanks to your father, I endured the humiliation and humiliation I experienced after I got married.”
Father held Mother’s hand tightly, as if Mother’s words hurt his heart.
“But today, thanks to you, I erased that memory. It’s the first time I’ve felt refreshed like I am now. Thank you son.”
My father and I were at a loss for what to say at mother’s unexpected words.
