The van with John Smith and Hookchung’s boss moved away from the building. Paul and Brian, each carrying a black bag, whimpered and climbed the stairs of the building’s front door.

Another bag is from Hookchung’s hideout. Hookchung had less cash than expected, and there were quite a few gems like rough diamonds instead.

Cheol-woo and his party climbed dozens of small stairs and entered the 55-story building. The building was at the entrance to the beginning of Wall Street.

Across the street was the Crump Building. If you walk along the road for a while, you can meet the symbol of Wall Street, the ‘Rushing Bull’ statue.

G Company, the holding company of the Grace family, occupied the entire 32nd and 33rd floors of the building. As the three men with suspicious bags entered the front door, the security guard hurriedly stopped them.

“Wait, this place is forbidden for generals!”

“Damn, do I even have to be treated like a junkie now?”

“Ugh! Sah, boss!”

Guards wearing bulletproof vests under their uniforms and with pistols around their waists restrained them and treated them as mercenaries. The form that entered the front door carrying a large bag looked like a workman or peddler.

The goods needed for the building were always to be used by the freight elevator in the underground parking lot. Porters could only use it, and the ground floor could never enter without prior permission.

It was a security guard who stopped them according to the guidelines, but Brian, who made the guidelines, distorted his impression terribly. This building was also one of the places he managed.

It was as if he was being treated as a merch by the guards at the entrance when he entered his house. It was an indelible disgrace for him, who had always lived with one pride.

“Sorry, I’m sorry. I didn’t know the boss before…”

“What is your name? Even if I suffer like this, if I stay still…”

“done! Let’s just move on.”

“That’s me, Brian, isn’t it? I am following the instructions well. you did a good job haha!”

It was Brian who quickly changed his attitude at Cheol-woo’s words. Today, he painfully experienced that self-esteem should be built by choosing people.

“thank you. president! The burden must be heavy, but if you give me, I will…”

The security guard expressed his gratitude over and over again with a shocked face. No one has ever touched Brian’s fiery personality and was unharmed.

So, I couldn’t help but be moved as if I was alive from the dead. He glanced at Cheol-woo as he saw the security guard asking for a heavy load, who had mistaken Brian for a merchant.

“done! just let me hear it I beg you to stand guard. shit!”

Seeing Cheol-woo’s eyes, he straightened his luggage with a gloomy face. What the heck was the weight of the weight to the point that my waist was going to fall out.

Anxious at Brian’s words, the security guard hurriedly signaled a colleague to grab the elevator. A colleague hurried into the elevator and tapped the lobby floor button over and over again.

“Come on, this way…”

“Because it is! Maybe I don’t even know the structure here? This building was also remodeled with my own hands!”

Brian grumbled and walked towards the elevator. Paul, who was carrying a bigger load next to him, followed him and asked.

“Then this building…?”

“Grace’s beggar. I am managing…”

Again, Paul’s guess was correct. The 55-story building, one of the symbols of New York and Wall Street, also belonged to the Grace family.

“What is the name of this building…?”

“You’re not asking because you really don’t know, are you? Of course it’s the Grace Building. Across the street is the Crump Building.”

“Damn, what is the price of this building…?”

“It would be better not to ask… It’s an amount you’ll never hear in your lifetime anyway. Whoops!”

“Is that kind of yangban acting no different from me now?”

“That’s right. A new boss has arrived… What can I do, I have to show my loyalty like this. Shit!”

Brian grumbled and climbed into the elevator. He put down his big bag and leaned against the wall, but it was worth it.

ding!

The elevator door to the 33rd floor opened. With the bags on their shoulders again, the two of them went out the door ahead of Cheol-woo.

McKay was waiting for them right in front of the elevator. He quickly told the situation and led the party.

“The board has just started.”

“Linda?”

“You are inside.”

“How is the atmosphere in the conference hall?”

“Huh! It seems that the major shareholders and directors have already passed to Steve. He’s very blatantly blatant that he’s perfectly crafted and will wield it as he pleases.”

“Where are Fred and Eddie?”

“We cannot enter the conference hall, so we are waiting in the car in the underground parking lot. We are guarding a bag of bonds and are heavily armed in case of any possible attack.”

Cheol-woo, who was being guided by Mackay and listening to the explanation, suddenly stopped walking. Then everyone around him had to stop walking.

“Brian should put down the burden and do what I tell him to do.”

“Huh! Just say anything! I’ll do it all…”

When Cheol-woo told him to put down the luggage, Brian’s dying face widened. As if he had regained his power, he put down his bag and waited for his command with a bright expression on his face.

At the same time, Paul quietly put down his bag. As he grew older, he had no choice but to dislike hard work.

“Do you know the location of the firefighting facilities on this floor?”

“It hurts my mouth. I know everything about this building like the palm of my hand. Huh!”

“Go there and wait, and when I give you a signal, sound the fire alarm.”

“Oh! Does it have to be a real fire for it to work? Do you know how much fines the authorities pay for making a false report or intentionally setting a fire?”

“Shut up and do what I tell you! Or are you going to ask Paul to pick up the luggage again?”

“Go, go! You mean you just need to sound the alarm?”

Let Cheol-woo catch you again. Brian fluttered his eyebrows and ran to the other side. Seeing him disappear to the end of the hallway, Cheol-woo looked at the two remaining people and said:

“The remaining bags are . . .”

“The conference room is over here.”

McKay, who was noticing, quickly walked to the breaking news. He then pointed his hand in the direction of the conference room.

“Paul, I think you should both listen.”

“Damn, why do I have to listen to both…”

“Five thousand dollars! You asked for that too, maybe?”

“Shit!”

I couldn’t lose my new honey job. Paul could walk briskly with two bags, commensurate with his size, but his expression turned into a swamp.

The party, guided by McKay, entered the large door. In a large room like a basketball court, there was a long, rectangular table.

Dozens of people were sitting around the table. Then, when Cheol-woo, Mackay, and Paul entered, they all looked at Cheol-woo and the others with curious eyes.

“Who is that?”

“He is my fiance. He’s the one my father chose.”

A man standing on the podium in front of the table looked at him and asked. Then Linda responded quickly.

“The author is Steve Wilson.”

Mackay gave a small voice to Cheol-woo. Behind the narrow, transparent desk on the podium stood a white man the age of Brian.

“Miss Linda, no matter what you do, no one else can attend this meeting.”

“Like I said, he is a man that my father recognized. He deserves a representative on my behalf!”

Linda jumped up from her seat and said. Just by looking at her actions, she could have guessed just how much pressure she had been under for all this time.

“You should have told me that before the meeting. Let’s start qualifying. But now…”

“I don’t deserve this?”

Steve froze her with a pitiful expression on his face. It was an expression of confidence that no matter how hard he tried, he had no choice but to achieve his current position.

‘Warrior, call Brian to sound the alarm!’

[I have contacted you.]

Seeing Steve’s confident expression on his face, Cheol-woo gave instructions to the Warrior. Then he looked at Steve and asked a short question.

He really enjoyed Chul-woo’s question. He shrugged his shoulders, slightly revealing his teeth, as if enjoying this moment.

“Unfortunately···.”

“Then the next one is after the meeting, right?”

“···Yes, it is.”

“I can’t help it because the rules are like that.”

“I’m glad you understand.”

During the fight between the two of them, no one in the meeting room raised an objection. They watched the situation quietly, with their mouths shut, like spectators watching two gladiators fight.

Follow me!

At that moment, a loud bell rang throughout the building. The fire alarm went off in the building.

A few seconds after the sound, the door to the conference room opened again. And the inside guard with a nametag in a suit shouted at the crowd.

“Looks like there’s a fire on a nearby floor! You must stop the meeting and evacuate everyone to a safe place. Hurry up!”

The building’s security guards were forced to follow the rules of conduct in case of fire. The sudden situation turned Steve into a poopy expression.

Even if I pretended, I could tell that Linda’s guys forced this situation. However, he could not ignore the situation and force the meeting to continue.

“Then see you at the next meeting. Mr Steve!”

Cheol-woo gave a sinister smile and reached out to Linda and held out his hand. With a bright expression on her face, she noticed what had happened to her too, and she stood up holding his hand.

With no time for Steve to stop, everyone on the board escaped to a safe place. Again, the more money he had and the higher his status, the more attached he was to his life.

“It was a fantastic solution. Thanks to you, from now on, time is on our side. Whoops!”

“Yeah, during that time, we’ll have to convince those in-between with bonds and cash.”

McKay smiled with a cheerful expression on his face. Cheol-woo sat with Linda on his lap, one hand wrapped around her shoulder and the other holding her hand.

When Cheol-woo was beside her, her face came to life without realizing it. She looked like she had ‘dispelled’ the pressure that she had to endure alone.

They were in a large hall. People who had taken refuge downstairs were scattered in a wide space, each murmuring.

Among them was Steve’s gang. They glanced at Cheol-woo and looked like they were plotting something.

“Since today’s meeting is over the water, we have plenty of time. In the meantime, if you convince people with a lot of stake one by one…”

“Well, will today’s meeting end like this?”

Cheol-woo brushed Linda’s messy hair and asked a question. She leaned into his hand and made eye contact with him.

“It’s customary, of course…”

“Tradition is a non-substantial word. He who knows the timing will never be bound by such conventions.”

“Then you mean they are going to have a meeting again?”

“That’s it, I’m not even sure. But if it were me, I would definitely have done that. And when you see them driving all the meeting attendees here…”

Cheol-woo looked around and stopped talking. They were all forcibly confined in one space, claiming to lead them to a safe place.

It was then that McKay realized the situation. The good guys who stood guarding the entrance were not trying to protect the people inside, they were monitoring them.

“Is this going to be difficult?”

“That’s it, it’s difficult to approach and negotiate one by one in a situation like this…”

“So, why are you trying to deal with them one by one?”

“yes? Then, right here right now…?”

It was when McKay was surprised by Chul-Woo’s plan and was about to ask him something specific. There was a murmur outside, followed by Brian’s screams.
