Chapter 19: The Tower
Seo-yeon held the phone out to Do-hyun across the dark counter.
He read it. He read it again.
Then he looked up at the ceiling, toward the room where his mother was asleep in Seo-yeon's old bed under Seo-yeon's mother's spare quilt.
"She'll want to go," he said.
"How do you know?"
"Because she said she was tired of the chair." He folded the red apron over the back of a stool, very neatly.
"She's never once said she was tired of anything."
On Thursday morning Seo-yeon's phone rang at eight. It was Bo-ra's cousin in procurement.
"The chairman's coming to the tower at ten," he said in a whisper, as if someone might hear him through the phone.
"With the board's lawyers. For CEO Kang's review."
"Does Do-hyun know?"
"He's the one who told me to call you."
The lobby of the Hwaseon E&C tower was three storeys of grey stone and glass.
Down the middle ran a long glass case with a model of every bridge the company had ever built.
At ten o'clock it was full.
Not with visitors. With staff.
