Chapter 3: Do You Believe In Love? (3)
The chief prosecutor shook his head.
The crime scene? Nonhyun-dong? What…did she hear that wrong?
Vice Chairman Minhyeok was Seo Geon-u's eldest son and his successor.
She heard the prosecutor general sigh.
A chill sprang up the spine of the chief prosecutor.
The chief prosecutor's hand shook as he put the phone down.
Unless the Incheon police chief was playing a joke or the Prosecutor General was given a false report…
Last night the vice chairman of the Eunseong Group died.
Someone had murdered him and his father died of a heart attack.
Even after nearly thirty years of numerous cases, where he started as a lowly prosecutor then ascended to the second-highest post in the district, this was the first time he face something this monumental.
This would be an earthquake that would shake the Korean business world.
His pupils trembled as if impacted by a magnitude 10 shock.
Jiyeon's heart was also pounding.
The chief prosecutor, who was reluctant to say anything else, looked at Jiyeon.
She was in shock. There was a whole line of prosecutors who would fight to take on this megaton-class case.
She was hardly an elite prosecutor, and wasn't she the one that caused the office to fall into chaos?
Was this part of a game?
She couldn't directly ask him that.
Her stomach twisted. It was an order and she had to obey.
Jiyeon took several deep breaths.
The chief prosecutor opened up a file of the Eunseong Group family tree on the computer monitor.
Numerous family members were intertwined with each other, giving a brief glimpse into their complex private lives.
The chief prosecutor pointed to one of them with his finger.
The district prosecutor enlarged his image with a click of his mouse.
He was dressed in a stylish suit, and had well-groomed hair and chiseled features like a Greek statue.
Unlike the other solemn portraits of the other businessmen, this man had a cheerful smile.
The chief prosecutor pulled up the face of Minseok on the monitor.
Minseok was just as famous as his older brother, Minhyeok.
Eunseong Motors became one of the world's top 10 car companies due to his aggressive management style, and the Eunseong Foundation became popular for its social contribution projects.
The chief prosecutor put Minho's face on the monitor again.
Come to think of it, Jiyeon remembered seeing an entertainment article about Eunseong's relationship with an actress a couple years ago.
The chief prosecutor did not answer.
Jiyeon stared at the smiling face of Seo Minho on the monitor.
