I'm on my way to meet the President at his residence. I'm going solo, without Baekhoon, who's been avoiding his parents since they shattered his heart. The irony isn't lost on me.I'm not here for some obligatory meet-and-greet between father-in-law and daughter-in-law. No, I have a mission update to share with the President – specifically, Baekhoon's progress, or rather, his downward spiral. I need to fill him in on Baekhoon's blatant display of bringing another woman to the party, his public declaration that he doesn't love his wife, and the subsequent controversy that's left me humiliated. And then there's his persistent nightclubbing and "socializing" with other men, not to mention his outrageous accusation that I'm the reason he and Shela broke up.I've spilled everything to Baekhoon's parents, and now all I can do is wait and see what's next. I've already set numerous plans in motion, one of which involves attending various events where I know the press will be swarming. My goal
I call Baekhoon and ask him to pick me up at the bus stop near the office. I'm not even sure why, but he's the only one who comes to mind. "I can't, I have somewhere to be," Baekhoon said over the phone. "Please, I'm begging you. I don't have any money to get home. My bag was stolen, and my wallet was inside. All my cards are in there, and all I have left is my phone. You should probably block the ATM card you gave me," I explain. "Mm," Baekhoon responds, sounding like he's agreeing. Beep beep beep...The phone call cuts off. Baekhoon refuses to pick me up. Who else can I turn to for help? I'd better call my old friend instead. "Hello, Rina. I’m Lee Yongju.". . . "Oh my God, Yongju, what happened to you?" Rina asked as she arrives beside me. She ushers me into her car, and I'm taken aback by her swift response. I thought she'd ignore me after all these years. "Yongju, how many times do I have to tell you? If you've got a problem, you can come to me anytime. Even if you're dow
The next day. At the President Director's residence, I'm sitting there again, facing Baekhoon’s parents and giving my report as usual. But of course, I'm not reporting that I successfully 'slept' with their son, but rather about the person who 'harmed' Shela. I look down for a moment, then muster the courage to glance at the President Director and his wife alternately. I can't take it anymore, being labeled as a 'suspect' by Baekhoon; he might just kill me sooner or later. "Sir, I want to inform you about Shela," I said. "I've already heard everything," the President Director replied. "I apologize, I'm not capable of handling this matter." I look down, embarrassed. "I've told you that Baekhoon is normal. Even though he's married to me, that won't change his decision. It seems... he won't end this charade until he can get Shela. Can't you just approve of them? They love each other, I think that's best for your son. Making Shela miserable will only complicate your relationship with yo
Thank goodness someone saw this incident. I didn't know what it would be like if that strange man didn't come."Who are you? Better not get involved in our business!" warned the knife bearer."Oh, I see?" replied the man casually. He started walking closer."If you don't want to have the same fate as her, you better go, Sir!""Have the same fate? What are you going to do to that woman? If it's for fun, may I join you?"I glared. What was with him? Join? The man was crazy or what?"Hahaha! No way, this woman belongs to us!" said the knife bearer.Gosh, I was just like merchandise.
Click!Our seat belts were on and the car went fast. I was safe, right? Regarding whose car was this, who was this man, where was the man who beat up the criminals, how could this man knew that I was in danger, before I didn't care, but now I was just thinking about finding out.I immediately turned my head to look at the seat beside me, the Helper who was driving."BYUN BAEKMYO!" My chin fell to see the driver. "What are you doing here?" I demanded hysterically."What do you mean?" Baekmyo glanced at me without interest and focused on driving.It was dark in this car, I couldn't see his expression in detail. His face was still cold, but there was a hint of gloom in there. S
"You should be able to recognize my voice. Ah ... how disappointing."Heard Baekmyo said 'disappointing', my heart ached to hear that. To reduce my heart pounding, I went back to treating Baekmyo's wounds and tried to relax."Sorry. But ... since when have you been able to do taekwondo?" I asked during my activities cleaning Baekmyo's wounds on his arm.Instead he laughed, a mocking laugh. "Not taekwondo, but hapkido.""Ouh, yes. I mean that," I replied awkwardly, really I was so embarrassed. "Aren't you a man without muscles and a little ...""What? What? What?" cut with a fierce tone. "Don't underestimate my body shape! Even though my body is not athletic but my strength is very st
"Wait!" I shouted, I ran as hard as I could to catch the bus which was about to get back on its feet. "Wait! Hey!" I shouted irritably. "Jeez!" I massaged my temples.The bus was gone a long way and I missed it."Stupid! Didn't he see anyone chasing him behind through the rearview mirror?" I grumbled irritably.I walked back to the stop and sat there waited for the next bus to come.Not long after, a shiny black car stopped in front of me. The window opened and featured the figure of a man in casual clothes. It was Byun Baekmyo."Come in!" he ordered from within."What? What are you doing here? What if someone sees?" I said frantica
"My father changed his mind. He begged me himself." Baekmyo smiled mysteriously and it made me shudder a little with horror. Baekmyo has a dark side, the man looks white on the outside but black on the inside.How could? The president has strong determination and ambition."Are you threatening the President?" My eyes narrowed suspiciously.Baekmyo just answered me with a grin."You're sneaky, Baekmyo. Even your own parents.""But Yongju, I need your help." Baekmyo took a step closer to me, his eyes looking hopeful. "My father gave a condition, if you want to divorce me ... then my father will allow me to marry Shela. The decision is yours. Think carefully."
I sigh. That is true. Father and son alike, both like simple and uncomplicated clothes. I see Hajun reach for the hat hanging in front of him. He plays with it then he walks towards the exit carrying the hat. "Hajun where are you going? Just put the hat here!" I said. Hajun just babbles as he keep walks. Baekmyo follows behind while asking for the hat from Hajun. I watchs from afar, a little worried. Hajun is walking fast enough but not really strong yet. I'm afraid he will fall. "Hajun, don't take it out it will ring!" Baekmyo said in a patient tone. Hajun keep walking towards the door and right, when he passes the exit the device installed on the door immediately rang because the hat Hajun brought had not been paid for, there is still the seal. I see from afar Hajun panick and go back inside. Then he wept for fear of the sound. Baekmyo takes the hat and carries Hajun into the shop again. I smile a little holding back laughter
After leaving the salon, Baekmyo takes me to lunch at a restaurant. He invites me to eat well. I feel today is my lucky day. Baekmyo really served me. I feel like a queen. After feeding, Hajun fell asleep. Earlier he had defecated and luckily we were already at the restaurant and the restaurant has baby care facilities. I put Hajun in the stroller beside me then started eating my food. "Where are we going after this?" Baekmyo asked. "I think we should just go home. I didn't bring much change of clothes for Hajun." "Okay, it's up to you." I devour my food voraciously. I don't know if it's because I'm hungry or if the food tastes good to me. Baekmyo watches me with a smile on his lips. I know he likes to watch me eat well. He said it was something cute. Though I ate like a hungry lion, I don't know which side he was looking at so thought it was cute. "Is the food good?" Baekmyo asked as he put a slice of meat on top of my rice.
"It's up to you what you want to do there. Think of it as a gift from me. You need to take care of yourself." "Is that true?" "Yes." "Oppa, I love you!" I said happily even though my voice is drowned by Baekmyo's embrace. "You, at this rate just said you love me," he sneered. "You say that to Hajun more often. Almost every second you say it." "Do not exaggerate!" my murmur. I know Baekmyo didn't mean it. I hug Baekmyo back. He always pays attention to me. Even if it's just a small attention, it's often. My love does not decrease, in fact it increases every day. "Sorry, I didn't pay much attention to you. You almost became a zombie because you didn't have time to take care of yourself," Baekmyo said. "What's that bad?" "No, you're still beautiful in my eyes. Uh... I think I'm the one who loves you more." "I love you more." "No, I'm the one who loves you the most." "Then love me as
Three months have passed. It's true what people say, if you have a baby, your sleep time will be reduced. Time for yourself will be greatly reduced. That's right. Very true. Sometimes I'm tired and sometimes I'm happy. Tired of when the little one cries and asks to be carried, not to mention that I have to do homework. It's nice, when I feel like I'm back in childhood. Invite him to play, joke. Even though he can't speak yet and can only roll there, roll here, but my Hajun can already laugh. His motor skills are developing. Really, I love my Hajun. "I thought you only loved Hajun," Baekmyo begin to protest. It is always like that when he felt it was unfair to him. Even though I've tried my best to be fair to these two men I love. Hajun and Baekmyo. But... it can't be denied, ever since Hajun is there, I put Hajun first. "Oh, I love you both," I evaded, I don't want Baekmyo to be jealous of his own son even though I know he's just kidding. Baek
Now I'm lying in the hospital. My stomach hurts excruciatingly. Baekmyo stands beside me lying down. He looked very worried and scared to see my state like this. Though I just want to give birth, not dying. I'm in the delivery room, I don't know how many hours I've been here. I will give birth to a baby. Happiness and fear become one. Thrilling. It is so thrilling that my heart is about to explode. Luckily Baekmyo had not left for the office, after seeing me in pain he immediately took me to the hospital. Now he's here with me. Holds my hand and gives me a reassuring smile. Occasionally kissing my hand and looking at me with love. I can tell he is no less nervous than me, his face like a confused person. "It's okay, everything will be fine," he whispered reassuringly. "I love you." Baekmyo looked like he is about to cry, but he tries to hold it in. Behind this pain, there is a burning feeling that fills my chest. This is what it feels like to gi
"Oppa... what's wrong with you? Why do you call me like that?" At this rate Shela looks like a normal human. "Haeyeon, you know right? I used to tell you that... love and mate won't go anywhere. We've been through a lot, you should understand that we weren't meant to be together. One day you'll find out. someone you really love," Baekmyo said at length. "Oppa..." "It is not my child and you know very well it is not my child but Hong Kangmin's child. Remember, he loves you very much and you deserve to be loved. So... stop feeling alone. You have many people who love you. There is your mother, your cousin, Hong Kangmin and. .. you see there?" Baekmyo turns to look at me with a smile. "She's one of those people who wants you to be happy. She doesn't hate you. Look, she's standing in this room, do you think she deserves your hate?" I see Shela stares at me for a long time with a calmer expression. She looks confused. Suddenly her tears f
Several months pass. The seasons have changed. I'm eight months pregnant and my stomach has grown. Baekmyo and I have been through a lot. Especially Baekmyo, for about three months he suffered. It's a pain, but it's so funny. Sympathetic pregnancy. It doesn't feel like time has passed quickly. My stomach feels heavier as if I am pocketing something in my stomach. However, my feelings grew extraordinary. Day by day feels more and more thrilling. When we did the USG, the doctor said it was a boy. I can't wait for it. Little Baekmyo, he must be very cute like his father. Today I take Baekmyo somewhere. Actually he balks, but in the end I manage to persuade him. Melting his heart is actually easy, but for that one... it's really hard. Inside the car it is a little... cold. Baekmyo exudes a cold air because he's actually angry I take him to that place. It's nothing, ever since I hear the news... for some reason my heart immediately pinched. Maybe it's because we'r
I arrive downstairs and greet my mother-in-law and hug her. "I'm doing the laundry, Mom," I explained. "laundry? Let your husband do it! You're pregnant, my God!" Sometimes I don't understand. What do people like my mother-in-law feel like? Baekmyo is her biological son, but my mother-in-law always treats me very well. I'm so grateful to have her. "Well, daddy brought a lot of meat! I know you like meat!" Suddenly my father-in-law appeared carrying a lot of carry-ons. "Dad why are you carrying heavy things like this?" I want to help him but my mother-in-law immediately stop me on the grounds that I am pregnant. "Your Dad is still strong!" said my father-in-law with a smile. My father-in-law takes all the packages to the kitchen. I don't know what they carry but... this looks like a month's worth of shopping. "Baekmyo will be home soon, right? Mom will cook for you, you just stay here!" my mother-in-law said. "Mom, how c
"Hah?" I howl in surprise. "I'm pregnant why do you have cravings? Are you delirious?" "Earlier my mother called me and asked how I was. Mother said I had an sympathetic pregnancy. Because of that I was nauseous and even my back hurt. I also have cravings like pregnant people. My father used to experience it when my mother was pregnant with me," he explained with his face still covered by his arms. . I am quiet. That seems to be true, I've heard of that too. But it's also funny if for example Baekmyo has cravings. Even a few days ago we did not notice the signs at all. I thought Baekmyo had a problem at work, but he's in a bad mood because of that? "Now how do you feel?" I asked. "Mixed together." I frown in confusion. "Are you nauseous?" "No." Baekmyo openes his eyes and loweres his arms from his face. He looks at me with a sad look. "I'm going to be a father. I'm going to have other responsibilities besides you." Baekmyo sits up and
