"What did you find out about Jeong Gu Won?" Ji Hu asked as she held out her hand for the file that Ki Hwan worked on all night. Ki Hwan placed the file into her hand as she walked through her office. Her employees bowed in her passing; she gave a small wave as she walked to her office. Ki Hwan followed quickly behiind. "He was grandfathered in, I see." Ji Hu as she pushed open her office door.

"I could only go back three generations with the time frame you gave me, Ji Hu." Ki Hwan stood before her desk, hands in front of him. "According to a couple of very low viewed articles about his grandfather's and father's deaths, Sunwol Foundation has been handed down from father to son for the past several decades." Ki Hwan explained.

Ji Hu flipped the page over. "How did his father die? He wasn't too old."

"According to one article, it was a heart attack, two others just said natural causes." Ki Hwan shrugged.

"He only took it over four years ago." Ji Hu leaned back in the chair, gently kicking her leg back and forth as she read over the file that Ki Hwan hand crafted. Even for three generations, Ki Hwan gave her a lot of information about Jeong Gu Won. "Good work." Ji Hu closed the file. "Now, what about the other problem?" Ji Hu asked, tossing the file onto her desk.

"Your private detective will be within the hour with photographs. As for the article, I was able to find out who wrote it, and yes, there is a direct link between him and your half-sister, Ji Hu." Ki Hwan explained.

Ji Hu rolled her eyes. "Seok Min is behaving, yet Su Ahn is the bitch of the week." Ji Hu shook her head. "And the police?"

"They should have the results by 3, I was given their word." Ki Hwan stated.

Ji Hu smiled. "You know, you might be working here to learn about the entertainment industry and how to run your own company, but you make a damn good assistant on the side." Ji Hu stated, spinning in her chair.

"Not that you give me much of a choice."

"What was that?" Her heel slammed down onto the foot. Ki Hwan stood frozen, back straightened. Ji Hu tilted her head, waiting for an answer, but an email appeared on her screen from Ms. Shin. She reached her hand out, grabbing the mouse. She clicked on the email, seeing the brand-new article, retracting what was previously said. Ji Hu wondered how long Ms. Shin stood behind the reporter until he was finished writing the retraction. "Do you know how much we lost in the meantime?" Ji Hu questioned.

Ki Hwan shook his head. "Not my department."

Ji Hu laughed at his honesty. "You'll make a great CEO one day, Ki Hwan." Ji Hu grabbed her phone, sending a quick text to Seong Min to find out how much money they lost from that article. Ji Hu knew that F&B lost several million won with the article that Su Ahn had written about the newest product. "Some of us are just as clueless about stocks as the average person. Get a good COO who passed math with flying colors." Ji Hu said, hitting send on the message to Seong Min.

"Oh, I passed math with flying colors, I just don't understand stocks."

"You and me both." Ji Hu set the phone upside down. "So, do you expect that poor bastard has no idea?" Ji Hu asked.

"Which one are we talking about? You've had me background check several people that last few days." Ki Hwan remarked.

"Mr. Unicorn."

"Noh Su Ahn's husband?" Ji Hu nodded once. "I think he's too clueless to realize his wife is having an affair."

"Runs in the family." Ji Hu mumbled.
