I Became a Scoundrel of a Chaebol Family-Chapter 97

+++

“Ugh...”

As soon as I boarded the AV heading to Incheon, I let out all the tension and sank back into my seat. It was impossible to feel completely at ease in the presence of the direct family members, so this moment felt all the more pleasurable.

‘I wanted to spend some more time with my aunt, but... no chance.’

There simply wasn’t enough time. I had rushed to drop everything for Grandpa’s Go debut, and as soon as the dinner was over, everyone scattered.

Min-young was no exception. At most, we managed a single hidden kiss before parting ways.

Quite a shame, really.

“Phew...”

As I lay there, feeling the comfortable embrace of the seat, the flight attendants assigned to this journey to Incheon approached with respectful bows.

“We’re here to serve you comfortably, Young Master.”

If this were my personal AV, Soo-ah would be in the driver’s seat, with Baek Seol and a couple of others by my side. But today, I was traveling in an AV from the Taeyang Palace, so there were other attendants instead.

‘Maybe I should assign my own flight crew.’

The AV I’m using and this one aren’t that different in size. There’s plenty of room to bring attendants along as well.

‘I mean, I could use my own people... but flight attendants have their own charm.’

I snapped my fingers at the one who looked the prettiest. She was standing far to the right and approached me diagonally with a slight bow.

“Yes, Young Master?”

“Why don’t you suck me off?”

“...!”

She flinched. She’d probably never received an order like that before, and quickly exchanged glances with the other attendants. However, soon enough,

“Y-Yes... I understand.”

She knelt before me and began unzipping my pants.

Sluurp.

‘Amateurish.’

There wasn’t anything particularly extraordinary about the sensation. Just enough to show she was making an effort.

But there was a certain stability and a strange thrill to it.

Receiving head from a flight attendant, I mentally reviewed the events of the day.

Grandpa became a Go professional, and, in his joy, gave me yet another gift—a bill to establish a permanent special prosecutor’s office.

Since Grandpa issued the command personally, it would likely pass without issue. I wasn’t sure of all the details, but this would undoubtedly help me gradually take over Incheon.

Just having the authority to use a special prosecutor’s office at any time brings immense power. There’s a reason the 100-day limit exists.

‘The Incheon High Prosecutor’s Office itself usually only allows a 70-day period, with an extra 30 days added upon the assembly’s approval.’

Normally, Na-eun’s special investigation would be wrapping up around now. But I’m going to make it last indefinitely.

‘If I link this with my private prison, I’ll effectively control part of Incheon’s judiciary and enforcement.’

Once Na-eun, holding actual authority within the (tentatively named) Permanent Special Prosecutor’s Office, identifies a target (as directed by me), the special prosecutors under her command would apprehend the individual and bring them in. The judge within the Permanent Special Prosecutor’s Office would deliver a swift verdict, and the convict would be sent to my private prison.

There, I’d have all the facilities set up to reshape and utilize the inmates however I saw fit.

‘If it’s a man, summary execution like the Terminator; if it’s a young, attractive woman, a life sentence without parole in my prison... a flawless plan.’

This way, any infractions committed in the process of silencing or subduing someone wouldn’t need to be hidden. Why incur the cost of concealment when it’s perfectly legal? Just do it openly.

Of course, there would still be those who’d cause a fuss, calling it a ridiculous law or worse.

‘In the long run, I’ll need to strip voting rights as well.’

Incheon is the only autonomous South Korean city open to Chinese and North Koreans, and they’re allowed to vote. However, Chinese citizens only become eligible after residing in Incheon for over 30 years, so it’ll still take some time before they can fully exercise their voting rights.

Before that happens, I need to strip them of those rights entirely.

‘But that might be a bit ambitious for now. I’ll just keep it in mind.’

Also, my secretarial office at Prestige will soon be reinstated. I had been planning to propose it myself, but it’s more convenient that Grandpa ordered it first.

I heard it’ll take about a week to get set up, so it might be a good time to check out the Prestige headquarters.

‘I’ll finally see Seo Ah-ram again.’

I wonder if she’s shed some of the insecure, gloomy aura she had when I first met her. In the game, she wasn’t quite that pitiful; it was likely due to her struggling with severe financial issues at the time. Her personality should recover as her situation improves.

“Soo-ah, have we received any messages from Prestige?”

“Yes. They’ve contacted us regarding the secretarial office setup and Jang Kyung-soo.”

“You’re the chief of staff, so assemble the team with you at the center. As for the members... you know what I want.”

“Yes, Master. I’ll focus on recruiting beautiful, sexy, and delectable women.”

Mm. As expected, excellent.

“What did Jang Kyung-soo say?”

I began reviewing the pending reports. There weren’t any major surprises. As anticipated, Jang Kyung-soo was kicking up a fuss, while everything else was progressing smoothly.

“He suggested we meet this Wednesday.”

“This Wednesday?”

Isn’t it normal to suggest the next Saturday if a deal fell through on a Saturday? Or not? Does it matter?

“He’s in a hurry. It’s only been a few days.”

“But he hasn’t mentioned the price.”

“Then proceed as planned.”

“Yes.”

That was the main report, and we reviewed and checked on other ongoing projects.

LUMINA’s status, the Nokonoko Girls, preparations for the private prison establishment, regulatory reviews for Muyeol Financial, PMC setup procedures, Namdong Complex land acquisitions, selecting a site for the Koryo Entertainment headquarters, second audition event planning, property and agency acquisitions, Na-eun’s special prosecutor case, and so on.

Why the hell is there so much? Was I really handling this much like an octopus with tentacles?

“Incredible.”

“Well... it’s not that much, sir...”

“Guess it’s time to trim some fat. Didn’t the Nokonoko head officially reject my offer?”

“Yes.”

“When we get back, track down the Nokonoko Girls and bring them to me. You can do that, right, Soo-ah? Especially now with your new implants.”

“Me, personally?”

“Yes. Take the PMC Red Team and give it a try.”

“Understood, Master.”

After converting the Nokonoko headquarters into a loose association, I’ll use Rainbow Miracle’s Kang Emilia and her counterpart as co-VPs to manage the entertainment sector.

That way, it’ll run itself without my constant oversight.

Grrrk.

“Huh?!”

“Do it properly, you wench. Gonna take all day?”

I gripped the flight attendant’s head, using her face like a toy.

“Good job today. You’re free to leave now.”

“Yes, Director, don’t overwork yourself. Hang in there!”

“Thanks.”

Watching her leave with a tired but hopeful look, Na Tae-hee sank back into her chair.

For nearly a month, she’d been surviving on four hours of sleep a day, and her entire body was beginning to creak. If she let her guard down even for a moment, she’d fall asleep instantly.

But she couldn’t afford to rest. Nokonoko Girls, the group she’d fostered, had taken off unexpectedly, and the workload was piling up.

“Just... just this week... just one more week, and then I’ll head straight to the Free States...”

She’d planned to leave sooner, all because of LUMINA. Not that she was afraid of them directly, but rather of the company they were under and its CEO.

Go Muyeol.

A notorious lecher and player in the entertainment industry.

Recently, he’d been posing as some kind of advocate for celebrities’ sexual autonomy, drawing attention to issues like standard contracts and women’s rights. But at his core, he was nothing short of a depraved rapist. Hadn’t her own daughter, Kang Chae-yul, leader of the Nokonoko Girls, nearly fallen victim to his assault?

Sure, the Nokonoko Girls had been the ones to provoke him first, but that didn’t change the fact that she’d been put in a vulnerable position. Her daughter had even developed a mild trauma from it, pushing her to pour herself into her activities.

Knowing he might strike again, Tae-hee was planning to move to the Free States.

But money was the problem.

Nokonoko was a small agency, and the money the Nokonoko Girls were currently raking in was too tempting to abandon. Every day brought in a flood of advertising deals, TV offers, and investment inquiries. To leave all that behind and head to the Free States?

Not when they weren’t even popular there yet.

It wasn’t an easy decision.

Besides, Koryo Entertainment hadn’t made any major moves yet. They’d been reaching out steadily about acquisition talks, subtly hinting at threats, but hadn’t taken any decisive action.

So maybe... could they enjoy this popularity a little longer?

Even the girls, including her daughter, Kang Chae-yul, who had nearly been assaulted, agreed with her opinion. Leaving now would feel like such a waste.

‘Alright, just one week. We’ll keep the schedule packed just for this week, and then we’ll head straight to the Free States.’
