Tachibana uncovers that the true architect is Park Jin-woo, Ji-ah's younger brother, who was only eight when he witnessed his sister's destruction. Unlike Ji-ah, who channeled her trauma into legal advocacy, Jin-woo spent years infiltrating Keiyo Corporation, rising through the ranks while systematically gathering evidence of historical exploitation and present-day corruption. His revenge is not merely personal but ideological: each victim represents a pillar of the system that destroyed his family. The chapter reveals his meticulous planning, including how he manipulated the reunion's security firm. Ji-ah, discovering her brother's involvement, faces an impossible choice between justice and family. Meanwhile, Park's investigative article on the Keiyo ruling is set to publish, and she realizes Jin-woo's actions could undermine the legitimate legal victory by providing ammunition to those who dismiss historical claims as personal vendettas.
