Chapter 129
A little later.
I dialed the number given to me by Deputy Eunhaje.
It was an internal number connected to Director Ho’s private office.
[Hello?]@@@@
“...!”
“Good evening, Director Ho.”
From the moment the call connected, my supervisors went silent, watching the scene unfold.
I kept my tone as calm and polite as possible as I spoke.
“This is Assistant Manager Kim Soleum, who went missing a month ago. I’ve finally made it out of the darkness and am contacting you now.”
Of course, he already knew.
"He’s framing this entirely around the company charging me for costs."
As someone in the development department, Director Ho had the power to prevent such issues but seemed content to merely express concern without offering direct assistance.
Not that I expected him to help.
I had already braced myself for this.
“Yes. That’s why I wanted to discuss something with you.”
I deliberately paused, maintaining composure before continuing.
“Director, is the proposal you mentioned previously about joining your project still on the table?”
