“Kyaaaaaah~ where do you think you’re touching!”

“Heh heh. My little sister’s chest has grown a lot~.”

“Unnieeeeee!”

Splash, splashhh.

At one end of Daecheon beach a pair of beautiful twin women were playing in the waves.

Their faces looked young, but their figures were exactly those of grown women.

The men around them watched the scene and let the drool run.

Set against the girlfriends they’d come with, there was no comparison.

“We hit the jackpot today!”

“Heh heh heh. I don’t see any men with them. Shall we make a move?”

“Hey! Get a sense of your own place!”

Wolves drooled on every side.

The twins, overflowing with life, are that much of a fantasy.

“Ohhh!”

“What is that? A foreign model?”

“Isn’t that one of the foreign beauties on Witches’ Chat?”

“Whoaaaa…, she’s a killer!”

Just then a woman appeared.

The interest in the twins was cleared away in one stroke by the appearance of one woman.

She had her hat pulled down, but the long black hair swung as she moved.

Long-limbed and sharp-figured enough to overwhelm every other woman, she was a goddess come down onto a beach.

Even a single step of her walk overflowed with dignity.

Through the faintly visible see-through cardigan, a daring two-piece swimsuit showed.

The beauty went toward the twins.

“Clara unnie~ come in!”

“Unnie, it’s really cool in here!”

The twins called Clara in loud voices.

“All right. I’m coming~.”

Clara put her cover-up and her hat on the sun bed she’d reserved.

And she walked into the sea with light steps.

It’s the bearing of a mermaid hiding herself from the human world.

“The water’s good today~.”

“What’s this? Dong-seong, did you arrange a present?”

“Ohh~ she’s sharp.”

Three men sitting under the resort’s VIP beach parasol, a little way from the sun bed Clara was using, had a light in their eyes.

They’d been drunk on beer since the middle of the day.

Every summer vacation season, Oh Dong-seong used the group’s own resorts on Jeju, on the East Sea and here at Daecheon.

The trio, who had come down from Seoul yesterday to play, have been friends since kindergarten.

They were out of a prestigious private kindergarten in Gangnam, and all of their families were loaded.

Choe Ji-hyeong is a late child, and his father is a multi-term National Assembly member for a Gyeongsang district.

Oh Dong-seong is the third son among the Ana Group’s heirs.

Ban Dae-sik’s grandfather and father are the direct line of a central daily newspaper group.

The trio, holding enormous influence in politics, in business and in the press, carried desire in their eyes.

They have several partners each in Seoul, but they enjoyed picking women up like this.

Put an imported sports car, a top-class resort room and money thrown around in front of a woman, and almost none of them didn’t fall.

They didn’t care about age.

They threw out the bait, got them drunk, and then did what they did.

Some among them cried and made a scene, but money and threats shut their mouths.

For the taste of that, these wretches kept on doing it.

“Dong-seong, what happened with that one?”

“Who?”

“Heh heh. You know. Your junior from school.”

“Ah~ Ye-rin?”

“Are you done with her already?”

“She whines, so I’m clearing it up. Luxury gifts and a trip abroad, that’s enough. I did as much as anyone would. I even pushed for her father’s promotion.”

“Her father was a presiding judge at the High Court, right?”

“Yes. Stiff-necked man, but after he got shunted out to the provinces he learned that the world is a frightening place. Heh heh heh.”

“That girl was pretty good, though~.”

“Why, do you want her? Shall I hand her over?”

Things like this happened all the time in the past too.

Even among friends they shared a girlfriend without a second thought.

“Forget it. The whining talk kills my appetite. The ones who study well have too much pride and they’re exhausting.”

“That’s exactly what I’m saying. I treated her well and she started thinking of me as a real marriage prospect. Only twenty years old and she wants a free ride through life.”

“That beggar mentality is better cleared up fast. You have to make them see the bad habit of trying to raise their level in life with nothing but studying and a face. Farmhands have a farmhand’s life.”

“Ji-hyeong, our old man wants to give your uncle a present, so tell your father to make some time.”

Choe Ji-hyeong’s uncle is one of the opposition party’s presidential candidates.

While he served as mayor of Seoul he swept up the votes with a real-estate redevelopment boom.

With the current ruling party’s blundering, once he’s the candidate his election as president is settled.

The rival on the other side is Jo Geun-yeong, daughter of President Jo Jeong-hui.

The fight over organization and money was fierce.

Choe Ji-hyeong’s father, Choe Sang-deuk, was pulling in campaign funds on behalf of his younger brother Choe Byeong-bak.

The votes of the delegates and the party members were all connected to money.

“All right. The candidate vote is on the nineteenth of next month, so everybody’s out of their minds.”

“Don’t you need a lot of ammunition?”

“Heh heh, saying it twice is nagging. There are a fair number of them pushing Jo Geun-yeong. Especially the one behind her, Ju Sun-ja…, this one’s a piece of work. She’s quietly bringing the old-timers over and working her tricks.”

“Don’t worry about it. My grandfather is an enemy of Jo Geun-yeong’s. The family has concluded that we’re definitely backing your uncle.”

Ban Dae-sik of the Joguk Ilbo’s direct line joined in too.

“Thanks, both of you. When my uncle becomes president…, he’ll pay it back and nobody will be disappointed.”

They’re all still young in years, but they were at the central axis of power in the Republic of Korea.

If Choe Byeong-bak becomes president, they’ll get an enormous lump of meat when the spoils are handed out.

“Anyway. Aren’t those ones really something?”

Oh Dong-seong drank his beer and took the foreign beauty in with his eyes.

For the first time in a while, it set his chest burning hot.

When she took her hat off a moment ago, he’d been shocked.

Not only the air about her — the quiet sexiness is the best there is.

Every single movement overflowed with a dignity money can’t paint on.

Among the foreign beauties he’d met until now, there had never been a top-grade article like that.

“I’ll take the twins!”

“Really? I like the twins too. Heh heh heh.”

Once the drink had risen in them to about the right level, the desire came to a boil.

Ban Dae-sik and Choe Ji-hyeong were killers of the very young.

Yesterday they’d toyed with three freshman college girls who came down to play, and the animals were still hungry.

“Who’s going?”

“I did it yesterday, so today’s Dong-seong’s turn.”

“Fine, I’ll go.”

Oh Dong-seong got up from his seat.

Walk over easily, exchange a few words, suggest a cold drink — most of them follow.

Oh Dong-seong had his shirt off, and the muscle built up at the gym was decent.

The chocolate-bar abs flexed and showed.

He put on sunglasses.

He was tall and his looks were clean, so women fell for him the moment they saw him.

Oh Dong-seong squared his shoulders confidently and went over to the three women.

He was not like the males around them, who only watched for an opening and licked their lips.

“Eek! Unnie!”

“Ju-hui, attack!”

“Yes! Unnie!”

Splashing the water up, the three women played with delight.

They paid no attention to what was around them and enjoyed the sea for all it was worth.

With their looks and their presence, no man came hanging around them.

“I surrender! I’m worn out now~ let’s rest a little and then play.”

Ju-a shouted her surrender and came out of the water.

“Shall we? Clara unnie. Let’s rest a little.”

“Okay~.”

Clara, who had gone back to childhood and played hard with the twins, nodded too.

The three women came out of the water.

They shook out their soaked hair with both hands.

The swimsuits, thoroughly soaked in seawater, clung to their bodies.

The eyes of men, hotter than the sun, poured onto the three of them.

“Excuse me.”

Just then Oh Dong-seong came over with a well-mannered smile.

“Yes? What is it?”

Ju-a asked, startled at the appearance of an unfamiliar man.

Ju-a is young, but she knew what there was to know.

The men’s eyes had been a weight on her for a while now.

What’s this? He’s never met us, so why is he smiling at us?

He was fairly good-looking, but the energy coming off him was murky, and it put Ju-a’s guard up.

“There seem to be three of you — if it’s all right, would you join us? My friends and I happen to be three too.”

“Yes? Join you?”

“Ju-a, what is this man saying?”

Clara asked.

“It means joining us at our table. Lady.”

Oh Dong-seong answered Clara in fluent English.

“No. No, thank you.”

Clara refused the moment she heard it.

“Don’t feel any pressure. We aren’t bad men. We’re staying in a special suite at a resort my family’s group owns. If you’d like, wouldn’t it be good to enjoy a drive in a sports car, drink some wine and get to know each other?”

Oh Dong-seong threw out a tasty bait.

He stressed the part about the resort being group-owned.

At that much, all of them understood roughly.

These days the dramas and the films wrap a group heir up so prettily that it worked even better.

“Ah~ right. Have a good time, all of you.”

Ju-hui refused, bold as anything.

At home she’d ridden in her oppa‘s sports car plenty of times.

The family was staying in three special suites.

It isn’t a group, but where money is concerned they had no worries at all.

And the decisive thing was what her parents had always told her.

That she must never meet a man who brags first about his money, his car and his family.

“Hahaha. Is it that you don’t believe me? My father is the chairman of the Ana Group.”

Thinking it was because they hadn’t understood, Oh Dong-seong made it clear one more time.

“So? We’d like to rest now~. If you’d step aside I’d be enormously grateful. Crown Prince oraboni.”

Bold Ju-hui answered without flinching in the slightest.

In the past she would have been surprised, but now it was nothing of the kind.

“This is unpleasant. Please keep your manners.”

Clara had read the way the game was going from the mood, and she answered coldly in English.

There had been plenty of this on the beaches in Hong Kong too.

But there had never been ones as persistent as this.

His eyes were murky and the smell of drink came off him strong.

He’s a man without even the minimum of etiquette.

In Hong Kong, you report it to the police and they’re dragged off at once.

“Haah, will you look at these? What are you? Do I look funny to you?”

Oh Dong-seong’s face twisted.

Humiliation like this was the first in his life.

The filthy temper came out at once.

“What’s with this guy? Is he getting irritated at us right now?”

Ju-a was sincerely astonished.

“Whoa…, you see every kind of crazy guy. Is it everything, being a group chairman’s son?”

Tomboy Ju-hui blew up.

“Why, you—!!!”

Oh Dong-seong, famous for his short temper, snapped his hand up.

With the alcohol soaked into his brain, the foul temper and the habits came straight out.

Shhhhk!

His hand flew straight at Ju-hui’s face.

The word guy had made him snap.

Thock!

Just then Oh Dong-seong’s hand was blocked.

Somebody had a hard grip on Oh Dong-seong’s hand.

“And what is this!”

Oh Dong-seong, angry to the top of his head, turned.

“What do you think it is, you bastard. It’s your hyung.”

“What did you say, you bastard!”

Oh Dong-seong strained with everything he had to pull his hand out.

“!!!”

It didn’t budge.

From when he was small, his father the chairman had made him exercise, saying a man has to be strong to survive in the world.

He’d had him learn everything from horse riding to boxing, squeezed in between his studies.

Oh Dong-seong had never come second to anyone in strength, and he was thrown.

What is this guy???

The man’s height was greater than his own.

He was wearing a flowered Hawaiian shirt.

The hand of the man holding his had hard, developed muscle.

“Oppa!!!”

“Daniel!”

“You were all startled, weren’t you? Sorry. I didn’t tell you in advance that there’s a lot of garbage on the beach that doesn’t go in the recycling.”

The twins were relieved at their oppa’s appearance.

Never in their dreams had they thought a drunk stranger would raise a hand in the middle of the day.

“Y-You, you bastard, do you know who I am! Do you think you’ll be all right after this!”

At the word garbage, Oh Dong-seong felt his lid about to blow.

People gathered around them.

Even so, he wasn’t afraid.

His father had always stressed it at home.

That the ones who don’t know their own place are to be broken by whatever means it takes.

“I know very well~.”

“What was that, punk!”

“The Ana Group’s wretch of a third son, Oh Dong-seong~. That’s you, isn’t it, you bastard~.”

“!!!”
