The Third-Gen Chaebol Becomes a Genius Actor

Chapter 136: Who is the ‘Head’?

Chapter 136 < Who is the Head? >

Yeon Seo hid his complicated thoughts and pretended to be normal. His aunt and uncle patted his shoulder and said,

Youre doing well. Youve been more successful lately, havent you?

Thank you. I still have a long way to go.

More than this? Youre just like your brother

They exchanged polite greetings. Like his father? Yeon Seo noticed something odd in their expressions and tones.

The atmosphere is strange, isnt it?

He felt they were hiding their discomfort behind their smiles. Yeon Seo passed them by and headed to the sofa where the adults were not sitting. Yeonho was caught by the adults.

It must be because of the inheritance.

It was already reported several times that Chairman Yoo had stepped down from the front line and even distributed his wealth. That was why he had been getting a lot of annoying calls from Yugeonmin lately, and Chairman Yoo had been urging him to take over his position.

But it has nothing to do with me.

Would he really give that much to his grandchildren? Maybe to his brother, but Yeon Seo was satisfied with his current situation. But the ones who had more wanted more, and the other relatives might have different thoughts.

Did you come?

Yeah.

Yeon Seo glanced at his cousin sister, Seoyoon. It was surprising that she spoke to him first. The cousins he was close with were Sunwoo and Yujung. They were the children of his small aunt.

Oh, right. Thanks for the gift.

He had ordered bags from a luxury brand where he was an ambassador for the women in his family. When they heard that Yeon Seo had ordered them, the exclusive designer made bags with unique designs that were one of a kind in the world.

They could have gotten something like that with their own abilities, but it felt better to receive a gift from someone. Yeon Seo looked at the bag on the table. It looked used, not new.

Youre using it well. Let me know if you need more.

I should have come in earlier if I knew this would happen.

There was a complex emotion in her voice that said, How dare you say that to me She was one of the people who had witnessed the incident up close, only a year younger than Yeonho. Yeon Seo coughed awkwardly.

Are you fully in now?

Probably.

Seoyoon, the eldest daughter of his big aunt, worked at a hotel overseas, and Seoa, the younger one, spent more days abroad than in Korea for studying. They rarely met even on holidays, and they left their seats right away without saying much. It had been a long time since they sat close and talked like this since they were young.

I dont have anything more to learn outside.

Really? Thats good.

Sis, you know thats not true.

Seoa, who was playing with her phone next to her, protested.

Bro, we were forced to come. Grandpa told us to suck up to him and get our fair share.

Seoa. Who said that?

Do you have to say it to know? Its the adults business, but why did they drag us in? Its obvious.

Seoa.

She shut her mouth at the low voice.

Yeon Seos eyes sparkled. He was going to tease them a little, but they spilled everything He could breathe easy without lifting a finger. Did he have Seoas number? He should meet her separately later.

The mood sank heavily. Sunwoo, who hated this kind of atmosphere, joked.

Did that really happen? Aunt is scary.

Mom didnt do that. Dad did.

Seoa cleared her throat and puffed up her shoulders.

Dad likes our kids, so why dont we call them this time? What do you think, honey? They might get some money too. Like Yeon Seo. Something like that.

Pfft!

Seoa imitated her father, Youngtaek, in a way that was similar but not similar, and Sunwoo couldnt help but laugh.

Yeon Seo also pretended to laugh casually and chewed on her words. Like Yeon Seo? She probably meant when he collapsed and Chairman Yoo gave him some money. Of course, that money was not a normal amount of money Anyway, his big uncle must have kept that in mind.

Is he jealous?

Yeon Seo was quite favored among the grandchildren. His daughters might be jealous of the affection they couldnt get So they might be trying to use their daughters to get a better share of the inheritance.

Sis, be quiet. They can hear you.

You laughed too.

Its because youre so alike. Sis, you should be an actress. Bro, what do you think of Seoa sis?

Contact me if youre interested.

Yeon Seo chuckled and naturally got Seoas number.

You got a new phone number in Korea, right?

Lee Seo-yoon sighed as she looked at the phone he handed her and entered her number on the screen. As she was about to give the phone back, she inadvertently saw a pop-up message. She couldnt help but notice the name of the saved person.

(Slave) Have a good Chuseok or not

Who is this?

My manager.

You saved your manager as a slave?

Were close. Thats how friends of the same age are.

She felt a bit embarrassed after sending a to Lee Tae-gyeom. Lee Seo-yoon looked at him with a curious eye.

Youre famous.

Only now?

No, I knew, but. Its crazy where I used to work. The staff are talking about you

She remembered that he had been working in Dubai until just before he came here That far? Park Seon-woo raved about how popular Yoo Yeon-seo was in Korea, and Lee Se-ah asked if he knew any idol groups. He politely responded to them and turned his head to Lee Seo-yoon, who was staring blankly at him.

Do you have something to say?

No Im just jealous that youre doing what you want.

You can do it too, sis.

Thats because your family treats you well Lee Seo-yoon was about to say that, but she sighed softly. She understood that he had overcome his grandfathers opposition and worked hard until now.

Well Its a bit hard.

Why? You can do it. You have money and everything, sis.

Thats, true

Lee Seo-yoon looked dejected. And Yoo Yeon-seo didnt understand why she was like that. She had money and was a royal family, so it wouldnt matter if she missed a few days of work. Was he the same type as his brother who didnt take vacations?

I should have insisted on doing what I wanted if I knew this would happen.

Lee Seo-yoon glanced at Yoo Eun-ho, who was among the adults. She couldnt fit in there no matter how hard she tried. She wasnt as brazen as Park Yoo-jung, who pushed her face in without being invited.

Yoo-jung is already like that, dont you have any ambition, sis?

Park Seon-woo looked like he had no idea, and Park Yoo-jung was always ambitious and shameless. Yoo Yeon-seo gently nudged Lee Seo-yoon, who looked unmotivated.

Will you give us that much too? I dont know about Eun-ho oppa, but

Lee Seo-yoon quickly turned her head as soon as she met eyes with her father, Lee Young-taek. She felt suffocated by his gaze, which scolded her for not coming here like Park Yoo-jung.

The big uncle must be putting a lot of pressure on her.

Yoo Yeon-seo changed his mind at that sight. Could it be that he was jealous of his mother, not of me, who was favored by his grandfather? His mother was also favored by his grandfather enough to give her a share

Maybe he planned it because of that.

He meant the plan to kill Lee Hee-seo. Yoo Yeon-seo narrowed his eyes. He had originally thought of the two uncles as the main candidates for the head. Of course, he couldnt pinpoint it yet. There were times when unexpected people hit him in the back of the head.

The large family, who had a conversation in the living room for a while, moved to the dining table and looked at the big elder at the head of the table.

Lets eat comfortably.

Yes.

The table, where pleasant conversations had been going on during the meal, was quiet as if something had not been agreed upon. Yoo Chairman, who read the atmosphere, slammed his chopsticks down.

My plan will not change.

Father-in-law.

Be quiet.

Yoo Chairman suppressed the small uncle, Lee Young-taek, with his eyes and looked at his grandchildren who were watching.

Listen up, you guys.

At his voice, the grandchildren who had buried their heads and put food in their mouths raised their heads.

I will retire within three years. You guys should prepare too. Your parents will take care of the taxes. If you cant handle that, youre not qualified

As he said that, Yoo Chairman glanced at Yoo Yeon-seo. He was doing well enough to handle the huge taxes without his parents help. The people there noticed the gentleness in his eyes.

Us too?

Of course, youre my grandchildren, arent you? Im giving you this because I want to give it to you in advance.

Only Park Seon-woo asked nervously. Then his eyes sparkled. He didnt expect him to take care of him like this.

Eun-ho and Yeon-seo have something else to give them, so dont complain later.

That meant he gave more to the two brothers. Me too? Unexpected. Yoo Yeon-seo, who had already received a lot, opened his eyes wide.

Father.

The big uncle, Lee Young-taek, said in a dissatisfied voice. He was already unhappy with the inheritance. Yoo Eun-ho was his grandson and his successor, but his daughter, Lee Seo-yoon, had the right to receive as much as Yoo Eun-ho. But why was Yoo Yeon-seo involved? He had already received a lot.

That thing I wanted to give separately, it wasnt mine originally.

What? Then

It was for that child. It didnt work out, though.

Yu Gunmins hand twitched. He was talking about that child, his late wife Lee Heeseo.

Then shouldnt you give it to Vice Chairman Choi?

Honey.

Yu Minjung stopped Lee Youngtaek. Choi Yujin laughed and said, Oh, why would I take that?

The aunts may not know, but the two uncles hated that mom received a share of the company.

Yoo Yeon Seo knew that grandpa loved mom enough to give her a share. As soon as he got that memory, he investigated the two uncles. They didnt get much from grandpa. Chairman Yoo thought they didnt deserve to receive anything.

That dissatisfaction led to eventually?

The older uncle, Lee Youngtaek, was an elite from a legal family who had the ability and confidence to aim for a high position. He sometimes made disparaging remarks about Park Kyungseok, showing his superiority.

But the younger uncle, Park Kyungseok, was not easy either. He grew up in an ordinary middle-class family, but at that time, Juseong was a conglomerate that was hard to enter even for graduates of prestigious universities. He also had ambition to grow a business in one field. He might have resented Lee Heeseo, who married well and had a good fortune.

And now theyre dissatisfied with me too.

They originally liked Yoo Yeon Seo because grandpa, the real power in the family, favored him. But when they felt like they were losing their share, their eyes changed. It couldnt be helped.

This is the same as any other family.

He was talking about the inheritance disputes he saw in the media. Yoo Yeon Seo laughed. It might look like a provocation, but it was actually a bait. He had to figure them out more. To find out who the head was.

This is not a topic for the dinner table.

Park Geumju, who quietly held a spoon next to Chairman Yoo, wrapped up the situation. Yoo Yeon Seos eyes naturally turned to grandma.

The relatives think I lost my memory in a car accident. Still.

Because Park Geumju didnt say anything. Yoo Yeon Seo clenched his teeth at the sudden pain that pierced his head.
