"How?" I asked Assistant Cha who just walked into my study. I was so impatient to hear information about Dongju's whereabouts, Yongju didn't even come home.
Oh my god, this feeling was so uncomfortable. I felt as if I had lost a wife. But it was true, Lee Yongju was still my wife.
"Director, the patient on behalf of Lee Dongju is no longer registered at Severance Hospital. It is reported that he was discharged yesterday morning because he has been declared cured of his illness," explained Assistant Cha.
"Yesterday morning?"
"Right."
"Okay, thanks. You can come out!" I said. "Oh yeah, prepare the proposal now! After lunchtime give it to me."
"Okay. Director?"
"Hmm?"
"That... I got a report from the security staff that apart from a lot of journalists, what should we do?"
"Journalists?" I winced.
"Yes, they want to interview you regarding your wife's death."
"The news spreads fast, doesn't it?" I smirked. "You
"Oppa!" said Shela just as she entered my study.My dream was broken. Suddenly I stood up and smiled at her. Shela brought another lunch box, these few days she visited my office more often. Rumors about us also spread to almost all residents of the HK Group."Are you so busy that you forgot to reply to my messages?" Shela asked in a worried tone. "You are sick?""No, you've been here more often lately. Is there something wrong?" I asked as I walked over to her."No, it's just… we're getting married soon. When I become your wife, I'll bring you lunch, so you don't have to buy food outside."I was blown away by his intention. I couldn't stand it if I didn't smile, there was a certain pride that I felt. We sat together on the sofa and enjoyed our lunch."You cook yourself?" I asked."No, I'm still in the learning stage. So please be patient, okay?" Shela said, her smile never faded since she entered my room."Then
What made me felt in danger was when she suddenly lunged at me. She hugged me who was still half lying on the bed and I was not ready, we finally collapsed on the bed.Yongju didn't move. Turns out she was already asleep at that time, I wanted to tell her to move but couldn't bear it. So... forced to let her sleep beside me.That night, I wanted to move to the sofa but suddenly Yongju's feet locked mine, then her hands hugged my stomach tightly. Her head slipped between my neck. She looked very comfortable sleeping in that position, but I was in big disaster. BIG DISASTER.Gosh, that night I had a hard time closing my eyes. My sleepiness disappeared immediately. I was Byun Baekmyo, and I was a normal guy. I was normal. What normal man would be fine if he slept in a woman's arms like that? Even though he didn't love her, she was a woman. WOMAN. Beautiful too.I smiled a little remembering all that. “Lee Yongju… you really are a disaster.&rdquo
"Excuse me, Director." My assistant came in with two cups of tea and served them at the table."Thank you, Assistant Cha," I said.Then I turned to Detective Nam who looked shocked to see us. Was there anything strange?"Why, Detective Nam?" I asked straight away."Ah, no. It's just... you guys seem really close.""Cha Kyungsoo is my assistant. What's wrong if we are very close?" I replied.Assistant Cha who was still in my room was glaring at me as if warning me to be careful with what I said."And he's just my type." I was exaggerating on purpose. This guy must thought I was gay."What? Ahaha, everyone has different tastes. There's nothing wrong with choosing Cha Kyungsoo over your wife." After said those lines, Detective Nam immediately covered his mouth with his hand. He was shocked by his own words.I laughed out loud. I didn't expect this person to be so outspoken. I like people like this. More honesty in
Because of Shela and her mother's arrival last night, I didn't get any information about Uncle Lee's company from Dad. I intended to stay at my parents' house, but because Shela didn't bring a car, I had to take them both home.Currently the location of Dongju has been found. Most likely he was with his sister, Yongju. But I also need to know, was it true that Yongju was with him? That was why I ordered Detective Nam to track down Yongju's whereabouts, if necessary went directly to the location. It was pretty easy to find them, but I didn't want to rush either. There was something I have to do.About seizure of property.Oh yes, I remember. I've got Dongju's phone number. Out of curiosity I tried calling him."Assistant Cha!" I called to the male assistant who was busy working at his desk."Yes, Director?" The young man looked at me with his glasses still perched on his pointed nose."Can I borrow your cell phone?" I asked with my hand outst
The next day.I looked towards my study door and I found Shela standing there. She smiled, which made me smile too. She approached me and sat on the available sofa in my room. She didn't say anything, instead she took some magazines under the table and flipped through their contents. I smiled slightly at her, maybe she knew I was busy. So when she came, she didn't talk to me."You don't want to ask how I'm doing, hm?" I asked trying to provoke her."How are you, Oppa?" She was still focused on her magazine.Was she sulking at me? I felt exasperated, I shifted my chair and stood up to her. I sat next to her and kissed her cheek briefly."What are you doing?" She glared at me."Kissing you," I said casually."Aish, you're busy, aren't you? Go back to your seat! I'll accompany you here without disturbing you.""You have no idea how bothered I would be if you were here?""What?"I was laughing. "If y
I took a moment to take a breath and prepare my heart, until I finally said, "Our sponsors withdrew because of the problems experienced by the JV Group. They said the JV Group was in trouble because many investors had withdrawn their shares in the JV Group," I explained"Then... what's your plan?" Father asked curiously."I will investigate the truth, then make a decision.""Did Director Kim ask you a favor?" guess my dad."Right. How did you know?" I was quite surprised."She's always like that, always taking advantage of the situation." My father sighed. "Baekmyo, just so you know. Director Kim is Yongju and Dongju's stepmother."Deg!Stepmother? So... the information from Assistant Cha was correct?"Director Kim married Lee Kangju but in a sly way. She hid her biological child in order to marry him, who you now call your future wife."I was very surprised. I plugged my ears well. Digest every word that comes
"Where do you live?" I asked directly without further ado."On x street of Seoul city.""More precisely?"He was silent like a confused person. Maybe I intimidated him too much. All right, I would loosen the knot around his neck. Ahahahaha, he felt like a little stray dog. He didn't recognize me, of course. We never met even when he was sick Yongju forbade me to see him. All I need to do now was pretend I didn't recognize him so he didn't suspect me."Erm, forget it! By the way, who do you live with?" I asked again.I knew people were confused by my question which was out of context for this activity. But they prefer to be silent. Who dares to interrupt me?"I live alone.""Alone?" My forehead wrinkled. "Your family?"I couldn't wait for Dongju's answer. I was pounding so hard, really. It's more thrilling than shuffling the lottery."I have an older sister but live in the Daejeon area," Dongju finally answered.
I bit my pen as I stared at the door where Dongju had disappeared there. "Lee Dongju... Lee Yongju... should have passed on the company to them. But in reality, Yongju and his brother have nothing. How did JJ Group turn into JV Group and become Auntie Kim's completely?"Did Auntie Kim steal the company? But the process couldnot be arbitrary. What had Auntie Kim done to the two orphans?-o0o-Lately every weekend I always went to my parents' house. I wanted to take them out for a good meal.I felt guilty because all this time I didn't pay much attention to them. We rarely see each other because I was busy. I wanted to pay more attention to them and close the distance between us. It's quite thrilling every time I went to visit my parents' house, maybe it's because we rarely see each other.Only regret fills my heart. I shouldn't have been so angry with my parents just because they didn't approve. They had their reasons for doing it. And now I knew ev
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
