Kai Does Care (1/1)

Kris arrived home exhausted from a round of heavy discussions with the board. They needed convincing on his projected expenditure for the next quarter. Even after he’d turned his father’s company around, saved it even. Saved Woo Investments and in turn this estate, they still doubted him.This board was supposed to support him. It had been newly elected when he took over the Presidency from his father but now, he could see the change happening. It was creeping up on him and he needed to nip it in the bud before things got out of hand. This was all the Vice President’s doing. Kris was sure of it. He’d been meeting with board members behind his back. Taking them out for dinners. Discussing alternative investments that in Kris’ opinion were risky and might show some initial return but were not investments he wanted associated with his name or the Consortium. This was the sort of shady deals his father used to make. Jung Hoseok had warned him against making similar mistakes.

Maybe because I’m spending millions on you and I want a return on my investment? Maybe because you have every household in this Consortium running after you, do you know what one hour of mine, or Chen and Kyungsoo’s time costs?”“Yeah yeah.” She rolled her eyes, “you want me to tell you how important you are right?”“No…” Kris gritted his teeth, “I want you to get off your ass and work for it. We believe in you so what are you doing drinking champagne when you should be out there making things happen. Song Gaelin…”“Blah blah. Song Gaelin should know better than to put her hopes on a poor country girl like me. I was never good enough for Jongin in the past so what’s chan
