The money was instantly transferred into In Seong’s account which then started their virtual employee/employer relationship.
Immediately it was arranged for Park In Seong to join Silver Lining.
Kim Seon Ju was supposed to be on a sabbatical so Park In Seong became the new President of Silver Lining.

Episode 4
Park In Seong dropped Kim Seon Ju’s phone on the toilet and had it repaired.
Wow, this drama is a hidden gem.
It just got exciting as the horrible loan shark, Ma Pi rescued Jung Se Yeon and Park In Seong from murderous thugs headed by Nam Sang Won.
Ma Pi tortured Nam Sang Won to confess who ordered to kill Park In Seong and Jung Se Yeon.
Nam Sang Won said it was Kim Seon Ju😲
Episode 5
The police arrived before they could interrogate him further.
The Chairman of Bumyoung died without leaving an heir. There is now a power struggle between Oh Mi Ran and Vice President Oh Young Geun.
Meanwhile, Nam Sang Won got away. Park In Seong and Jung Se Yeon can’t find him.
Ma Pi became their official bodyguard though he was really expensive but he was worth it as he does not suffer fools gladly so he gets on with the job.
It was MIn Ah’s birthday so Park in Seong with the Se Yeon, Mapi, the nanny and the butler went camping to celebrate.
Minah accidentally overheard Park In Seong talking with her father. She overheard her father sounding hopeless that he will not see his daughter again.
Episode 6 – 9
Kim Sun Joo was kidnapped via order of Oh Mi Ran because she wanted total control of the Bumyoung company which was denied her at first for being a woman.
Jung Se Yeon was working for her secretly because Oh Mi Ran was financing Jung Se Yeon’s mother’s hospitalization.
Meanwhile, Mapi had been saving the day. Seriously, Mapi is so charismatic, he should be given his own drama.
Episode 10
It was a major shareholder meeting where Oh MI Ran was being voted on whether she could remain as Vice President of Bumyoung or not.
The shareholders voted against her dismissal. In turn, Oh Mi Ran proposed that President Park In Sung should be dismissed as he was absolutely useless in managing Silver Lining. The shareholders agreed because Baro was a failure.
Episode 11
They did the stupidest thing. They killed Mapi, the most charismatic character in this drama. Why, why, why?!!!😭😭😭
It turned out that the spy in Kim Sun Joo’s household was not the nanny but the butler. Well, it is always the butler whose done it.
The person on the phone was not Kim Sun Joo’s soul or spirit but Baro 4.0, the AI
Episode 12
The ending is anti-climactic. Kim Sun Joo’s comatose body started to have a little eye-movement at the last second.
