Chapter 69

“What?”

[Mr. Han, are you there? Mr. Han?]

Han was in a state of shock. One billion dollars? How did the gross average get so high!? The last time he saw it, it wasn’t even at five hundred million yet!

A hand touched Han from behind and he turned back to see Rina standing three. She came out to see how hews doing when she waited for him for too long. Once she saw Han’s face her eyes widened at the amount of anger in his eyes! He was fuming.

“H-Han...Han-Oppa, what’s wrong?”

Han closed his eyes and squeezed his hand before cutting the phone. He bowed his head so his hair covers his eyes and started walking away from the parking lot, but his sister stopped him and dragged his hand back.

“Wait, Han. Tell me what’s wrong! Don’t just leave me in the dark!”

“Can I get a hug?”

Han was not going to tell Rina what was wrong. He still didn’t want her being involved in the dirty politics of the upper part of society, but he was very angry right now. He just wanted to be around someone he loved.

Rina would’ve blushed if Han asked her that before, but right now she was too worried to even blush. She pulled him towards her and pressed him against her body. It didn’t matter if people were watching. Her brother was hurting and she just wanted to take care of him.

Han wrapped his hand around his sister and squeezed.

“Han... Are you okay?

Han didn’t respond to her and Rina became very worried. She has never seen her brother so angry before, not even when they were still poor! He always tried to smile for her. But now something happened that made him lose his smile? What dead person could do something like that to Han!?

Han enjoyed the feeling of his sister for a few more minutes before he spoke.

“I’ll be gone for a while, Rina,”

“Han-Oppa?”

“I want you to know that I’m going to be okay. Will you trust your brother?”

Tears began to fall from Rina’s eyes. Why wouldn’t he just tell her what was wrong!?

“Han-Oppa! Please, just let me help you this time! Please! You’re always working for us so let me help you too!”

He turned to Tao Long and told him to leave them be in the office for now. He needed to arrange some things before they began.

Tao Long nodded and Han entered with Rin Woo.

“So you’re my new secretary? I don’t think you would have agreed if you knew who it was so that means Gou Young didn’t tell you either”

Rin Woo was silent as she stood in front of Han’s table. She was stuck between being professional and trying her hardest not to blush in embarrassment. How could that vice president do something like this to her! This was so embarrassing!

“You can leave if you don’t think we can work well together. I don’t need anything holding me back right now and I won’t tolerate you bringing personal relationships into the office,”

Han was going to make sure there were no distractions for what he wanted to do. If she was going to make things difficult then she should just go.

Rin Woo felt insulted that Han would think she was that type of woman! Did he think she would just jeopardize the entire company for the sake of their personal relationships!?

“I don’t know what kind of person you think I am, but I won’t destroy our professional relationship because of something like that! I thought you were better than this!!”

Han narrowed his eyes at Rin Woo before he sighed and stood up. He took off his outer coat and Rin Woo took a step back in shock. What was he doing!?

Han hung his coat on his chair and rolled up his shirt.

“The next one week, do you have any important occasion?”

“W-What?”

“I asked if you have any important occasion. Did you not hear me well?”

Rin Woo quickly shook her head when Han’s tone because harder and she realized he was not playing around. What made him become so serious.

Han nodded his head and then began walking out of the office. He gave Rin Woo a file and told her to follow him.

The traders outside his office all quieted down once Han walked out and he walked to the front of the office without a single glance at anyone. There was a small elevated platform where he stood with a large screen behind him.

“I am Han Luo. Your CEO and boss. Most of you have never met me till today, but I know all of you personally. I was the one that ensured you were hired here out of the thousands of people that applied for this job, so it is my job to know you. The largest challenge most of you ever faced was the screening process to enter the company, but now there is a new challenge,”

Han pressed a button and the screen lit up with the number ‘300,000,000’ on display. He waited for everyone to get a good look at it before he began talking again.

“This is the current net worth of our company today,”

Murmurs broke out among the traders once they saw the number and Han could tell they were all very happy! The number on the screen was something that most companies couldn’t achieve in their entire lifetimes and since they were already this rich they would be making even more in the future! The traders were all excited! But Han was not.

“And it will soon be the cause of our closure,”

The murmurs died down immediately!
