The Chaebeol’s Youngest Son Chapter 242

[242]The sky is falling 3

The grandmother looked around the hospital room and frowned.

“It didn’t come just in time. I can’t believe I have to see things like that again… .”

There was no one who didn’t know that the things my grandmother said were me, Sangjun, and my mother.

“What on earth are we going to do now? “Do you mean that?”

My father’s face, stained with tears, was distorted in despair and he shouted.

The reason he could not bear to make a loud noise in the face of his grandfather’s death was probably due to his last patience.

“This guy, that guy… It’s full of people who aren’t good enough. “How could I be so pathetic because I don’t know whose blood it is?”

The grandmother clicked her tongue and gave a cold look to her children and grandchildren.

“Have the funeral at home. “Mourners are strictly screened out and special care is taken to avoid any trouble.”

The grandmother left the hospital room as if she had nothing more to say.

“By the way, Young-gi, please tell me what you need and come home. “I have a pressing story to tell you.”

The grandmother winked at Jin Hye-kyung, the eldest daughter of Vice Chairman Jin Young-ki, and left. Jin Hye-kyung bowed her head towards everyone and quickly followed.

My father, who was watching this, finally ran out of patience and tried to chase after my grandmother with his face turning red.

But his mother grabbed his arm, and his second oldest father also blocked his path.

“Yoongi. Be patient today. Please, just for today… .”

My father, whose tightly clenched fists were shaking, relaxed.

“Big brother!”

My father shouted at Vice Chairman Jin Young-ki.

“I need to make sure that my mother sees my father entering the hospital with her own eyes. If you don’t see it, be sure to bring it with you! “Brother, take responsibility.”

Coffin is not a simple act of putting a body in a coffin. It means saying a final goodbye to the deceased before closing the coffin lid. It seemed like he was saying that whether you are Miu or Gou, you should not neglect your courtesy towards the husband you have spent your whole life with.

The eldest uncle nodded his head weakly.

I was furious at my grandmother’s absurd behavior, but I suppressed it as I looked at my grandfather’s face with his eyes quietly closed.

The words to forgive my grandmother still remain vivid in my ears.

* * *

Quite a number of people were gathered in the special ward conference room. It was to prepare for 5 days without waking up.

“Do we all agree that the funeral should be held as a family funeral?”

Jinyoung-gi led the meeting as the eldest priest.

The brothers all nodded, but the expressions on the faces of the CEOs of the main affiliates who rushed over did not look good.

“Vice Chairman. I am of the opinion that it would be a good idea to make him the head of economics at the Federation of Korean Industries. Of course, the chairman’s funeral should be entirely based on the opinions of his children, but please also consider the opinions of people from all walks of life.”

“you’re right. To be honest, social work is not difficult. Isn’t the Chairman’s life the history of the Korean economy? “It’s not unreasonable at all.”

Jinyoung-ki listened to the words of the two presidents and looked at Vibrator’s expression.

Although he was sitting there with an expressionless expression, I thought that he must have been the one who orchestrated this opinion. It was a trick to minimize exposure to the eldest son, and that was it.

The funeral is a funeral held with the highest honors, next to the state funeral and the national funeral. Although the government is not directly involved in funeral procedures and methods, it sometimes awards posthumous medals in consideration of the deceased’s achievements.

In addition, the chairman of the society gathers senior members of social organizations from all walks of life to determine departments, elect members, form a funeral committee, make plans, and execute funerals.

In this case, the chairman of the funeral committee is not the eldest son of the deceased, but the most influential elder. When it comes to the chairman of the Sunyang Group, someone at the level of a former prime minister is at least a top priority.

The media’s spotlight is not on him, the eldest son, but on the committee members. His younger brother’s nod of the head when he suggested that he should hold a quiet funeral and take care of business was a pretense.

Jinyoung-gi did not show much emotion.

Anyway, this attempt is a failure.

His mother also declared him to be the head of the family, and the rest of his siblings also want to be the head of the family. Above all, it is also the will of the late Chairman Jin.

Sure enough, Yoongi, the youngest, takes care of it.

“I will gratefully accept the wishes of the bosses. But this is not the path my father wants. He always said that he would quietly put his life in order. “I will pay it as a family funeral.”

No words came out of Jin Yoongi’s firm words.

The vibrator made my cheeks twitch a little, but that was all.

Jinyoung-gi looked around the crowd and came to a conclusion.

“Then I will be the head of the family. The press announcement will be made tomorrow… .”

Jinyoung-gi glanced at Director Hak-jae Lee and then looked at Baek Jun-hyuk, the Chief of Staff, who was standing right behind him.

“Chief Baek, prepare to avoid any disruption. By the way, reporters are camped out in front of the house and are prevented from reporting. “Customers who come to pay their respects feel uncomfortable.”

“Yes, Vice President.”

Hakjae Lee had to suppress his laughter.

Blatant exclusion… . It was a signal to withdraw from the group’s work and an order to give up the name of the group’s chief secretary.

“And all the staff from the Strategy Office will be appointed to ensure that mourners do not experience any inconvenience during the funeral.”

“yes.”

Jinyoung-gi felt a little better when no one complained about his instructions. Doesn’t he look like the chairman of a group?

“Oh, wouldn’t it be a good idea to prepare incense burners in the lobby of the group’s main building, affiliates’ headquarters, and local business sites?”

When the still vibrator spoke to the presidents of affiliates, they all nodded as if it was obvious.

“And bosses, please make a list of people whose obituaries we should not miss. “Shouldn’t we double check just in case?”

The vibrator spoke to the youngest as if it had suddenly remembered something.

“Yoongi. Let me ask you a favor. “You probably know a lot of famous celebrities, and those people have a relationship with you that you can’t miss paying condolences to.”

Jin Yoon-ki, a big player in media entertainment, will have his portrait book turned into a film festival in an instant. There will be no red carpet, but it is obvious that the best actors of the time will appear one after another.

“I know what you mean. I will only allow the CEOs of production companies and entertainment companies to come to pay their condolences. “The actors only receive a wreath.”

“okay. thank you for understanding.”

“no. I was thinking that too. “I can’t have my father’s funeral published in the entertainment section of the media instead of the economic and social sections.”

While they were in the middle of talking about the funeral, the hospital director came in and spoke carefully.

“Chairman’s body… “We are ready to move to our home.”

Jinyoung-gi stood up first.

“Then let’s finish this and see you at home.”

『Soonyang Group officially announced this morning that Chairman Jin Yang-cheol passed away last night due to old age.

The passing of Chairman Jin Yang-cheol is a big shock to Sunyang executives and employees.

Overseas media outlets, including CNN and the New York Times, have already reported the news of Chairman Jin Yang-cheol’s death as urgent news, and major overseas media outlets have also covered the news of Chairman Jin’s death heavily.

Business groups at home and abroad, including the American Chamber of Commerce in Korea, are deeply mourning the passing of Chairman Jin Yang-cheol.

Also, there was a wave of black suits today around the Sunyang headquarters where the founder was lost.

Here’s the next news. The National Assembly is still heated today with discussions on the pros and cons of impeaching the president… .』

The first news in the morning was my grandfather’s death. However, he did not deliver news all day like he did in the past when he was Chairman Joo Young-il of Daehyun Group.

Grandfather’s death is simple news, but the president’s impeachment is a reality. As the much-talked-about impeachment of the president became a reality, all media cameras turned to the National Assembly and the Blue House, and there were only a few cameras left to turn to the Sunyang Group.

I turned off the TV and changed into mourning clothes.

I was out of my mind, but I had work to do, so I returned home for a while, and with the sound of the doorbell, assistant manager Kim Yun-seok, dressed in a black suit, cautiously came in.

“How heartbroken you are, Director. What should I do to comfort you… .”

“it’s okay. “More than that, I feel embarrassed to have to talk about work in the middle of this.”

“Oh no, no. “Please tell me anything.”

“You mobilized all employees from the Strategy Office, right?”

“yes. “All the female employees who supported the chairman’s family rushed to the chairman’s home.”

“Did Assistant Manager Kim maintain a relationship with those employees?”

“of course. “As directed by the director, I bought them food, drinks, and even gave them transportation expenses every time so as not to lose their humanity.”

I was relieved to see Kim Yun-seok’s confident attitude.

“Then have those employees check who is meeting whom during the funeral. There is no need for simple condolences. I’m sure there will be people talking secretly. In particular, be sure to write a list of people who speak alone with the two vice presidents.”

“We should also check how long we’ve been chatting in secret, right?”

“If you can confirm that, it’s the icing on the cake.”

Having a long conversation means that it is not just a greeting.

At this time, Assistant Manager Kim Yun-seok looked at me and said something strange.

“Hey, manager. Rather… .”

“Speak without hesitation. Because it’s okay.”

“How about installing a listening device in every room? “Wouldn’t that be more clear?”

At first glance, it seems like a very good idea, but I say this because I don’t know my grandfather. His meticulousness is beyond anyone’s guess.

“That’s not possible. Twice a day, security guards check the inside of the house. Wiretapping is impossible.”

Numerous people chatted with grandfather in the study and living room. Most of that conversation should not be leaked and no one should know about it.

Attempts to give large sums of money to people who do housework and hide wiretapping devices have been completely blocked.

“Oh, I see. I said something for no reason… .”

“no. If you have any ideas in the future, please tell them openly. “Don’t think about leverage.”

“yes. Then I will go out and contact you.”

“is it so. take care.”

After Assistant Manager Kim left, I drank a cup of coffee and took a short break. Because there are more important things left to do.

Managing Director Woo Byeong-jun also stepped into the house wearing a black tie.

“sorry. “It’s late.”

“no. “Have you been to the main incense burner?”

“yes.”

“There was no need to… . “It was okay for him to come see his grandfather with me.”

“Does location matter? I just need to convey my feelings to the Chairman. “Don’t worry about it.”

He was always expressionless and stiff, but he looked different today. She blinked her bloodshot eyes from tears.

“Let’s go to the grave with me later. “I promised to say hello every day.”

“yes. “Let’s do that.”

Only then did he show a faint smile.

“Well, please tell me what you are telling me to do. “Shouldn’t you, Director, quickly protect the mortuary?”

I took a deep breath and said.

“Check out your grandmother. In particular, take a close look at the purchase and sale of art. “Isn’t it a widely known fact that the floor was dirty?”

I remember my grandfather telling me to forgive my grandmother.

According to those words, I forgive you for trying to kill me.

Also, I remember his last words to live as a villain.

I cannot forgive anyone who hurts me and my family in the slightest. If you’re a villain, wouldn’t cruel revenge be the right thing to do?

Even if the target of revenge is the biological grandmother.

It is only when you treat even your blood in a ruthless way that you become a villain.
