"It's the first snow"

At the voice of Mr Park, Tae-seok came out of deep thought.

"They say it pours all night long. Hopefully it will be a white Christmas."

Mr Park who was behind the wheel looked happy. As he turned up the audio volume a little the familiar melody filled the car it was a song by a female singer with a fascinating love pitched voice.

"It's always a masterpiece." Mr Park continued.

"This song was sung by Edith Piaf at Carnegie Hall in 1957. it is a song titled , < If You Love Me, Really Love Me>, and it is an English translation of the chanson . I don't know if you know.

"I think I've heard of it."

"This song, the back story is interesting At the

time, Edith Piaf was dating a boxer. But this man died in a sudden plane accident. He was on his way to meet her, who's preparing for the concert, She wrote the lyrics thinking about him"

Mr Park looked nostalgie.

"This song was also played when I proposed to my wife while studying in the US. I asked for an event at the restaurant and the musicians came to our table and played this song.

Probably the happiest moment of my life."

"Mr Park"

Tae-seok cut off Mr Park's words. Mr Park immediately stopped speaking and looked at Tae-sook in the mirror.

"Yes sir"

"The back seat is dirty. I asked you to clean it every day, remember?'

Mr Park stammered, seemingly embarrassed "I'm sorry. Oh, my wife was sick this morning, so I was distracted keep forgetting."

"I'll be careful." Mr Park's apology followed.

Taeseok slowly rubbed his long fingers near his temple Fatigue and irritation come rushing in.

Suddenly, a former attendant who looked after him for three years come to mind. His whereabouts are currently unknown.

He was a recognized veteran in the industry and did a good job. If he hadn't tried to hand over the wealth of the Mujin family to the media after being bought out by a competitor, he would still be holding on to the steering wheel of the car he is in.

Anyway, after firing him, his father introduced Him to Mr Park as the son of an acquaintance. It is said that martial arts skills and foreign language skills a young talent who combines.

However, it bothered him to hear him mention his wife and children from time to time. Every time he talked about his wife, he laughed out loud and even told a story that he was not curious, which scratched his nerves.

Taeseok quietly watched the back of his hood.

He wondered what he would do if he heard the story that his predecessor was beaten to death with a golf club.

"And one more thing."

"Yes sir."

"I don't like music in particular, I can't tell the difference between the songs about love

because they all have the same lyrics"

"I see, I made a mistake."

"From now on, pisase pay more attention to

song selection"

The music Immediately stopped when Taeseok threw a sharp smile through the mirror

There was silence in the car.

Taeseok ignored Mr Park, who was constantly

looking at him, and turned his eyes out of the

window. When he got off work, the snow that

was lightly fluttering turned into a big one.

The car continued to walk like a turtle because

of the snow that began to accumulate, At this

rate it will take more than 30 minutes to get to

the hotel the mosting place. Taeseok was lost in thought again.

"Can I see your face for a second? It's a

restaurant in Kingsley this time."

His mother's phone call before he left work was not clear.

"What's going on? So suddenly"

"I was passing by and thought of you, it's time to get off work, so rd ilke to have dinner with you."

His heart was hausted by the friendly way of

talking

'Since when have we been eating together after work.'

'From now on we can do that.'

'I never thought I'd hear this from someone who didn't want to eat with me once. What should I do? This is such an embarrassment.'

The silence returned. Tae-seok felt happy when he imagined the humillation that must have crossed her noble face

'All right, I see you later.'

He added cleverly.

'For your information, if you're going to apologize to me, a few tears won't work.'

'I-its not like that.'

'That's a relief. I hate pathetic beings.'

He hung up with ridicule.

As a stepmother, she despised Tae-seok. It was because her husband, Kwon Chang-wook, lived in two houses. When his woman who was his first love and mistress, died in an accident, he brought a son, whom he had with her. That son was Tae-seok.

Although the whole family argued that putting

an legitimate child in the family rigister would

damage the family's honor, Kwon Chang-wook's determination was firm, Perhaps it was on Attachment for the past behavior of choosing to marry another womon instead of his first love who loved him dearly.

Of course, no one in the family welcomed Taeseok. His stepmother's cold reception was the toughest, it wasn't unconvincing to think about it now. His father cared about Tae-seok enough to push ahead despite extreme opposition, which meant that he loved him that much.

However, due to the patriarchal family atmosphere, women had no right to speak. She had to keep her anger to herself. Arrows of criticism naturally poured out on Taeseok.

To a five-year-old who lost his mother.

Taeseok's eyes staring out of the window shone fiercely for a moment.

...****************...

The meeting place, Kingsley Hotel, an affiliate of the Mujin Group.

Perhaps because it was the weekend ahead of

Christmas, the hotel was more crowded than usual Tae-seok entered the lobby, feeling the attention of people.

The noisy interior became quiet in an instant.

People seemed to be completely overwhelmed

by their stunning looks robust physique.

Among those who recognized him, there were

women who tried to approach Taeseok with

blushing faces, but it was pushed away due to

Mr Park.

"Hello Director."

A middle-aged man suit asked for a handshake as if he was waiting. Judging by his luxurious attire and his age, he did not seem to be a field worker.

"I'm Lee Kyung-hwan, head of the hotel business department."

"It must have been a long time since you got off work Aren't you busy?"

"I waited when I heard you were coming."

"That's very kind of you."

"It's an honor."

After the media reported that Taeseok is being

mentioned as the next president of the Mujin

Group, the hospitality continued wherever he

went. The manager guided Taeseok himself with a business smile.

"The way."

As he entered the restaurant, he noticed a

familiar silhouette by the window. It was her

stepmother, Park Joo-hee

She wasn't pretty, even in empty words. But she was dignified as the eldest daughter of a

prestigious family. She was very good at

speaking and had a very good external image.

After she married, his father's business was booming. In the world, she was praised as the queen of social circles and the perfect hostess.

At least on the outside.

"You're here" Joo-hee got up from her seat

happily.

Toe-seok looked at her indifferently. He didn't

want to force himself to be happy. Because he

had a rough idea of what was going on.

Taeseok's half-brother and her son, Tae-yeol,

caused a bunch of incidents When he was a

foreign student, he caused a nuisance to his

family due to his drug addiction, and after

starting his social life as an executive at a

department store in Mujin he was repeatedly

criticized for swearing. There wore numerous

incidents and accidents, including complicated

relationships with women, but his father covered them every time, Because he was the eldest son of the Mujin family, who held money and power everywhere.

However, the incident that occurred last year

was beyond the control of even his great father. Abusive language, abuse against a formale department store employee. This has caused a huge blacklash in society, in the end. Tae-yeol resigned from the position of CEO of Mujin Department Store, and the image of the company was also severely damaged it was

this incident that led to a change in the group

succession structure.

For Joo-hee worst situation was coming. If

Tae-seok really became the head of the next

Mujin Group, her son would have been

completely excluded from the management

front.

She had lived looking at only ber son. she had

been faithful to the role of the eldest daughter

in-law of the Mujin group whille enduring her

husband's affair, to see his son who will

someday lead the Mujin group.

Therefore, it was urgent to see Tae-seok

somehow and make on har side. Now that

not only the public but also the group executives and even her husband have turned their backs on Tae-yeol. If his relationship with Tae-seok went wrong his son would not be able to make a comeback.

I have to do anything not to take the crown

away from the second Legitimate child. Taeseok was seeing through her earnest desire.

"The snow. must have caused a lot of traffic."

Joo-hoe smiled affectionately at Tae-seok.

But Taeseok looking elsewhere.

Unexpectedly, his stepmother was not alone

The first woman he saw was standing next to her. On her fair skin, she had her hair hanging down to her waist. Taeseok slowly blinked his eyes

The woman had a shy, frightened face. When

their eyes met, her big eyes, which seemed to

occupy half of her face flinched.

Tae-seok, who looked at the women as if exploring, began to immense himself in the act

from a certain moment, innocent eyes and

transparant skin, Protruding black eyalashes

under the clear double eyelids. He was caught

by her as he looked at her moist looking lips.

A strange ecstasy swept through his body, his

body was paralyzed, and the pulse increased

Taeseok licked his lower lip with a burning thirst.

It was after hearing the manager's timid voice

that he noticed that he was briefly out of his

mind.

"Director..?'

Taeseok turned his head as if he had woken up.

"Your coat looks wet, do you want me to keep

It for you?'

Tae-seok managed to come to his senses and

took off his coat. His eyes were stili nailed to the women.

"Say hi to Hyewon." Joo-hee, who was watching this closely, opened her mouth.

"..she doesn't look very much the Chairman Ha, does she?"

Taeseok's hand stopped at the words.

Chairman Ha..

Taeseok, who was continuing his thoughts seemed to have been hit in the back of his head at the moment.

His gaze penetrate the woman's face again. He couldn't hide his surprise at the unexpected

meeting.

Ha Hyewon, 23 years old. The youngest daughter of the honorary chairman of Swan Group, Ha Jong-hwan, CEO of Swan H&N.

And..

A woman who will become his wife next fall.

"I can't believe it snowed on your first meeting How romantic."

Joo-hee, who was looking out the window, suddenly said.

"I stopped by an adult exhibition I knew and met Hye-won there by chance. So I was thinking about having dinner with her, but I suddenly thought of you."

"By the way, Hyewon must be very hungry. Should we eat first?"

"I am..fine."

When the woman opened her mouth. Taeseok's heart beat violently. She had such a lovely voice that I wanted to pat her cheek.

"Shall we order then?"

"I'Il prepare a menu for you. What kind of wine would you like?"

Joo-hee answered the server's question, "Oh, I'm done. I have to go in now."

"You... promised to eat with me." Hye-won looked perplexed.

"I have to go in before the traffic gets worse. I've had an accident with snow before, but I'm

nervous even if snow accumulates a little bit."

"This happens when you get older." Joo-hee smiled gracefully and got up from her seat However, there was no way Hyowon was unaware of her intention.

"Still stay a little longer..."

"Then you two talk."

When Joo-hee left, Hye-won was restless like a puppy who lost her mother. Tae-seok looked at her silently. The fact that she was hiding her face or couldn't even make eye contact stimulated his curiosity. He suddenly wondered. Laying her down on his bed, and rummaging his way through her the way he wants, what sound will she make.

Tae-seok's thoughts barely stopped when he rubbed the tip of his erect cock against his pants. The server brought the food.

"Looking at your expression, you seem to have been forced out, too," It was Tae-seok who broke the silence first.

"Do you know my name?"

"It's Kwon... Tae Seok." Hye-won looked embarrassed when he talked informally without hesitation.

She was hardly over vigilant. Tae-seok tapped the table with his long fingertips. Apparently, it was clear that she heard that his former attendant was beaten to death with a golf club.

"Since you showed up here today, you know what I mean, right?"

"What.. Do you mean?"

Hye-won, who picked up the knife, tilted her

head. Tae-sook gave a smooth smile.

"It means you can't get out of this marriage anymore."

"..."

"Your family wants to have three children, are you prepared?'

Hye-won dropped her knife from her hand because of his blunt words. Tae-seok almost burst into laughter.

"Calm down."

"..."

"Even so, I won't let you down on the first day we met."

When the knife slipped from Hye-wan's hand

again, Tao-sook could not stand it this time.

Taeseok's laughter rang out. Mr Park, who was

wary of the surroundings nearby, opened his eyes wide as if he could not believe

"it meant it for you to laugh"

"Its.. Its not funny."

"Why don't you drop honorifics? I can't wait to

get close to you."

Hyewon held the knife properly without answering. At that moment, she flinched without realizing it. It was because he got up from his seat, lowered his upper body, and made eye contact with her.

His well-grown beautiful body drew closer. Overwhelmed by the body odor of a man, she froze as it was, it was a brief moment, but she thought he was trying to forcefully take her lips

away.

"I'll do it for you."

But what Tae-seok took was Hye-won's plate.

Hye-won swallowed a sigh of relief as he began to cut the steak without hesitation, But his ever pouring of hot eyes still made her nervous. Despite her naive personality, she's not foolish enough to not realize that he has a positive feelings on her.

"Let me hear it."

"Wh.. at?"

"About you."

Tae-seok, who put her plate back in place, slowly licked up the sauce on his finger.

"Not just one thing about you but everything"

...****************...

"heard you met her last week?"

Tae-seok, who was lighting a cigarette, raised his eyes

"Who said that?"

"Well, that's a bit of a rumor."

Myung Hyuk smiled. He was Taasook's cousin and one of Mujin's lawyers.

"She is the granddaughter of the honorary chairman of the Swan Group. If it's the Swan Group, isn't it from Aunt's family?"

"That's right. I heard it's a relationship between.

my mother's family and in-laws."

"I heard that it was a marriage that was achieved because Aunt actively pushed it. How

old is she?"

"23."

"Then, is she a college student now?"

"No. She works as a regular employee at the SPA brand affiliated with the Swan Group"

"There's a lot at stake for this marriage, but in the long run, the wedding doesn't really matter.

There's nothing interesting except that she is the biological granddaughter of the honorary

chairman of Swan Group"

Tae-seok did not deny Myung-hyuk's words.

"She chose a daughter-in-law according to her

taste, in order to monitor my every move."

"Aunt still hasn't given up on the expectation that her son will take the throne?"

Myung-hyuk glanced at Tae-sook's expression.

"Are you going to do it?"

"What?'

"The marriage."

Tae-seok looked out the window of the smoking room without answering.

It was at a meal a couple of months ago that Tae-seok learned about the marriage.

Ho Jong-hwan, president and CEO of Swan Home & Network (HAN), a partner of Mujin

Construction, was seated at the place where his father called.

The two companies were preparing for a fierce

battle ahead of the selection of construction

companies for a redevelopment area in Seoul.

At first, Tae-seok thought it was just a business meeting. But the conversation gradually moved on to the other side.

'Oh yeah, I heard that Hyewon started at the

company not too long ago? How old is she this

year?'

'She's 23.'

'Already? Is she dating a man?'

'As far as I know, there isn't. She's so shy.'

'I saw Hyewon once when she was attending an international school in Hong Kong, and she was very kind. Even though she had lived abroad for a long time, she was so polite.'

'It was nothing.'

CEO Ha said modestly.

'She's still pampered at home. When she was young, she was always not feeling well, so we

took care of her. Oh, now she is in good health.'

'That's a relief.'

'Because she's the youngest, she's always like a little girl. When she joined our company this time, she wanted to move closer to the company, so l made her independent. How anxious is it for us that that child who cannot cook ramyeon lives alone. I'm worried that she might be stressed out because of her social life.'

"Yeah. Then I think my heart will be reassured...'

CEO Ha blurted out the end of his words and looked at Tae-seok's eyes.

He had a hunch then. That the old folks are already done talking.

Tae-seok was not surprised because he had a wedding with a woman from another prestigious family last year. In the world he lived in, marriage was also part of the business. To pursue corporate interests and consolidate power.

Recently, although the number of people getting married is increasing, dramatic marriages such as love with ordinary people are still rare. That is why Tae-seok accepted it with dignity. For him, who wants to take over the management of the group, marriage was like signing an approval document.

Although the fact that there might be a wife and children was uncomfortable, he could not ignore his image. In particular, it was unconditionally advantageous to have a family to deal with senior executives.

'How would you like to see her once, Tae-seok?'

When the eyes of his father and CEO Ha were focused, Tae-seok responded expressionlessly.

'I want to meet her once.'

And a few days later, a fairly thick document was delivered through his secretary. It was from his father. It seemed that the background check on the woman had already been completed. Tae-seok had left it in a drawer without even reading it. He was not that interested in his opponent.

Ha Hye-won, until he met her in person.

"...rim... Meeting?"

Tae-seok belatedly recognized Myung-hyuk's voice. He turned to Myung-hyuk with a cigarette in his mouth.

"...What?"

"Why are you so out of your mind?"

Myunghyuk stared at him with a puzzled look. "It's Christmas Eve tomorrow. Are you meeting Serim?"

"We broke up."

Taeseok answered briefly and rubbed out his cigarette. Myunghyuk's eyes widened.

"When?"

"It's been a few days."

"All of a sudden? You two were dating well not

too long ago."

"It wasn't a deep relationship in the first place. She knew that we could break up at any time."

"Really? Maybe... Is it because of that girl from the Swan Group?"

Tae-seok ignored Myung-hyuk's surprised gaze and left the smoking room.

After returning to the office, Taeseok picked up the cell phone he had left on the desk.

There were several messages from a number he saw for the first time.

[Please meet me just once. Let's meet and talk.)

Tae-seok's brow frowned.

There was no sender's name, but it was definitely Serim. Even after the farewell notice She constantly contacted him, so he blocked her number. She seemed to have left a message through someone else's cell phone. Then he called someone.

,

[Hello.]

The young voice that came after the long phone call seemed a little sleepy.

"It's me."

Hye-won was speechless as if embarrassed. Probably with those big eyes wide open.

As he imagined it, his tooth suddenly ached.

"Did you sleep? At work?"

[Today is a day off.]

"What about lunch?"

[I ate. Director... What about you?]

"What did I say on the phone yesterday?"

[To speak comfortably and... call you by your name.]

"Then say it."

[Taeseok...]

A lovely voice tickled his cardrums. Taeseok slowly closed his eyes and opened them.

"Do it again."

[Taeseok.]

He thought it was absurd. He'd feel tickled when a woman called his name once.
