Whack—!The golf ball was hit with a clean impact sound and flew forward in a beautiful arc. The people watching Kim Han-Gyo’s tee shot from behind him exclaimed as if they had been waiting for it.
“Great shot!”
“As expected of Congressman Kim! Your skills haven’t rusted a bit!”
Han-Gyo, who had come to a golf course for a change of pace, clicked his tongue as he stared at his ball that had fallen short of the green. He handed his club to his caddie and got on the golf cart with the others to move to where their balls had landed. On the drive there, one of the young politicians that supported Han-Gyo cautiously brought up a sensitive topic.
“It’s very unfortunate what happened with the Jo Su-Yeon case.”
Jo Su-Yeon was an extraordinary swindler who had impacted the financial, entertainment, and even the political world. Her deeds had been exposed by a certain reporter.
“Did Reporter Ahn Su-Jin have a part in this as well?”
“Yes, she was the one who published the article.”
“How in the world does that Ahn Su-Jin woman get all of this information?”
“Could she be a helper of the ‘masked woman’ that Congressman Kim had mentioned?”
“Who knows?”
Han-Gyo had once again been brought up as a topic of gossip due to the Jo Su-Yeon incident. He of course was not as closely connected to her compared to other people; he had simply had a meal with her once. However, he was such an influential figure that just a simple meal had become a huge deal. The Jo Su-Yeon case had stirred Korea yet again.
Han-Gyo walked to where his ball had landed once the golf cart stopped. He confidently got into position after changing his club.
“There’s no need to be muddled over every single trivial incident like this. We’ve all survived in this dirty world of politics for a long time. Don’t even give a storm this light the time of day and wait until it blows over.”
However, he couldn’t just continue to take this lying down.
Whack—!
The golf ball flew as if it slightly jumped in the air and rapidly rolled toward the hole. It just barely missed it, but it was extremely close to it now.
“Not everything goes the way you want it to. Such is life.”
Han-Gyo did not let the chance to score a birdie go.
“There is no such thing as a plan that can’t go wrong. What’s more important is being bold enough to completely modify the plan and go in an entirely different direction.”
The golf ball rolled into the hole as if it was being pulled in by it. Incidents had occurred one by one after the appearance of the mysterious woman who knew all of Han-Gyo’s secrets. He did not know who the woman was, but he would absolutely not take this lying down. Hence, he decided to be ‘bold’ like he had mentioned just now.
“Secretary Jang.”
“Yes, Congressman?” his secretary energetically answered.
Han-Gyo fixed his hat and said with a meaningful smile, “I’ll have to meet some people. Set a schedule.”
***
There was one more person who had realized that there were times when things did not go to plan. Kang Ra-Eun softly sighed in disappointment. She had come to know why Kang Ra-Hyuk cared so much for her after hearing about the past of this body’s former owner from Seo Yi-Seo.
