Chapter 59.2
Absolute Advantage
âChairman Seo said nothingâ¦â¦.â
âShe met a high-ranking prosecutor, a college alumnus, and agreed not to release any reports about Seo Ellie. It is confidential information, so you can trust me.â
âI canât believe it.â
âWe wonât know until long after.â
Adam shrugged his shoulders.
âIt must be quite complicated because the children of opposition politicians are also intertwined. She canât avoid jail time.â
He gulped down the wine. Now that all about Marie has been forgotten, and a terrible unseen fight had plagued the man.
âIs the person who was alive, should supposedly stay alive?â
Adam gave him a moment to cool off and asked softly.
âSo, what have we decided to hand over to them on the terms of a political marriage?â
âIâve decided to hand over the position as JS Trade Director.â
âLetâs give that spot to Haewon.â
âWhat? What are you talking aboutâ¦.?â
âThe chairman wonât be able to say anything about it, if you say that you will give it to Seo Hae-won under the pretext of this incident.â
The vice chairman nodded his head, perhaps persuaded by Adamâs words. But he added as if something had come to mind.
âBut if itâs your fiancée, weâve agreed to put her in the position of the JS Welfare Foundation.â
âDonât you think we should give her a better seat?â
Adam tilted his head.
âI donât like to fight in the house, but if I were to be honest, Iâm on your side.â
â!â
âI noticed what you wanted me to do.â
A commentary saw that Adam had a prudent personality unlike his outward appearance.
âSo you have to use it well. Haewon and I are on the same team.â
ââ¦â¦one team, I see.â
Certainly, it was as Adam said.
Rather than handing over the JS stake to Seo Sera or Seo Ellie, it was in the interest of the vice chairman to give it to Seo Hae-won. If Adam will be on his side as he is now.
And Ellieâs arrest gave Haewon a reason to give him a key position.
âIf Adam didnât find meâ¦â¦.â
The vice chairman glanced at Adam.
He would have been tricked by the viper-like Chairman Seo and had a wedding before he found out about her arrest. At that time, it must have been after all the shares of JS had already passed to the mother and daughters.
âI see. Iâll rearrange the position of trade director, to hand over to your fiancé.â
He nodded his head.
âIâm glad it helped. Oh and brother  . . ..â
Adam continued
âChairman Seo should not know that I am behind this deal. You know, right?â
âYes, that would be in our favor.â
The vice chairman raised his glass and drank it down. When he straightened his head, Adam was reaching out.
âNow youâre on the same boat as me.â
The vice chairman shook hands with Adam while laughing lonely.

The next day.
The vice chairman waited for the chairman at a fancy Korean restaurant. Half an hour after the appointment, the door opened. Chairman Seo appeared with her usual arrogant attitude.
However, she was not as relaxed as usual. Her eyes were unusually sharp today.
âWhat Adam said was all true.â
Itâs not that he didnât believe it, but it was a commentary that admired his brotherâs intelligence.
âWhy did you suddenly say to meet each other?â
âDo you really need to meet family members who have a good reason?â
The vice chairman struck back.
âYouâre up to something.â
Chairman Seo thought.
She was recently spending a busy day dealing with Ellieâs arrest without the JS family knowing.
Meanwhile, she got a call from the chairman.
Did the information leak? In order to find out his intentions, she had no choice but to meet in person.
So he took his cup back and forth, and at last he revealed its claws. It was a dull but definite shot.
âThe youngest lady is caught up in an unsavory affair.â
Alas.
Chairman Seo gathered her eyebrows.
âIt would have been helpful if you could at least give me a word. Itâs upsetting to know this from the third personâs mouth, Chairman Seo.â
In his sly performance, the chairman snorted, a trilateral sound sheâs sure he figured it out.
âI didnât say it on purpose to avoid worrying about it before the wedding, but now that I see it, thereâs no need for that?â
Chairman Seo put down her glass with a snap.
âI donât have time. Just get to the point.â
A smile faded from her face.
âIâm giving your second daughter the position of JS Trade Director, which I decided to hand over to the eldest.â
âWhy is it like that?â
Chairman Seo smiled.
âIf you give up this much, we both wonât be at an advantage.â
âAdvantage? There must have been someone else who could see better than me, right?â
Chairman Seo asked back with a grin.
âHa ha. Well, my father would be shocked to hear about this, butâ¦â¦.â
âYes. He, who had the vulgar bastard omega bastard as a son.â
Chairman Seo stared at the vice chairman with an angry face.
