Kang ji hoon's P.O.V

"What do you mean you couldn't reach Susan?" I almost yelled at my secretary. "Did I ask you to look for a ghost?"

"I'm sorry, Sir. But it seems like that." his answer raised my temper again.

"Do you think I'm joking around? She even sent condolence bouquet for grandpa's funeral. That means she was in Korea. Then, why can't you find her?"

"I'm saying the truth, Sir. We couldn't trace her whereabouts. we don't even know if she had left Korea or not."

"did you run a background check on her?"

''yes, I did. But there isn't much. She's Korean American hired as assistant executive director of US branch by Mr. Wang Dae Hyun two years ago. But she has her own brand showroom 'Turquoise'

"Is that a small brand?"

"no. it's being famous accessory brand recently.''

"If she already owned a famous brand then why did Hyung (referring to older) hired her in M.K group?"

"That brand wasn't well-known two years back. It was growing then." He informed. "Or I guess she was hired because of her competency. I heard she's very talented and hardworking woman. Remember, when the US branch was facing crisis, and also was able to thrive again within short time? It was for her competency. But there are also rumors that apart from her skills, she is very reckless arrogant and bad tempered."

"whatever it is, I need to meet her. It is for the sake of the company. So, you better do your job properly. Try to contact her again and arrange a meeting. "I ordered him.

"Yes, Sir." he left my office.

This woman is mysterious. she has been hiding and working for MK group. she must have known some business plan of Dae Hyun and grandpa.

It has been three months since grandpa died and internal chaos has already started inside the company. The two most competent men died one after another. I was in such a messy situation where I don't know whether I should mourn for grandpa or handle all the business matter. But someone crossed my mind during those days. Tae Zing. I wondered if she had heard about grandpa's death. It has been almost 9 years since I saw her last. When I tried to met her at prison, she was already bailed out. And after that she disappeared. Though he never mentioned about it, but I knew it was grandpa's doing because he loved her more than me. it been long time, but I still don't wanna meet her again for some reasons; maybe because of what happened in past, it is hard for me to let things go.

"Sir! Sir!!" my secretary rushed and bumped into my office door.

"What happened?"

"That---that Susan." he almost ran out of his breath. "she's here. She came with some representatives. Looks like she's here for today's executive board meeting."

"What?" I hurriedly left my office and took the elevator to go down to the lobby. I saw a woman in red suit with black high heels walking confidently towards me. As soon as she came near, I got shocked. I was shocked to such extent that my words were stuck. it was Tae Zing.

"long time no see, CEO Kang Ji Hoon." She smirked.

"Tae Zing? how did you---"

"Looks like CEO Kang it's too surprised to see his ex-girlfriend after so many years. But please save the feelings for our little reunion. We should talk about the business first."
