A Dizzying Pregnancy Scheme - Chapter 11

“Why did you wait?”

Ga Eun asked, standing at a distance and looking at Do Jun without sitting down in front of him.

“I waited for over two hours, sit down first.”

When the staff confirmed Ga Eun’s arrival, they placed another glass of water on the table. Feeling the gazes of people around, she had no choice but to sit in front of Do Jun.

“Let’s have dinner together.”

Ga Eun hadn’t taken her morning sickness medication today and had been fasting all day. She hadn’t even touched the lunchbox Oh Jipsa had packed for her.

“I already ate at the company.”

Before Ga Eun could finish speaking, a growling sound came from her stomach. As Do Jun raised his hand, a restaurant staff approached to take their order.

“Two A-course meals, please.”

When Ga Eun didn’t choose the menu herself, Do Jun quickly finished ordering and shifted his gaze to her body.

“You seem to be losing more weight. You.”

Ga Eun looked out the window, avoiding Do Jun’s gaze. She was afraid of how he might interrogate her.

“How about we go see Dr. Kim together tomorrow?”

Do Jun mentioned Dr. Kim to probe the reason why Ga Eun had been visiting local hospitals during the three months she had left his side.

“There’s no need to worry. It’s just that I lost my appetite after the car accident.”

The more Do Jun saw Ga Eun’s cold demeanor, the more his possessiveness towards her grew. The loving look in her eyes that used to follow him around was nowhere to be seen, replaced by coldness, and she wouldn’t even look at him properly.

“Are you hiding something from me?”

Do Jun’s persistent gaze scrutinized Ga Eun’s face accusingly.

“There’s nothing like that.”

Despite Ga Eun’s firm answer, Do Jun didn’t easily withdraw his suspicious gaze. Inevitably, Ga Eun had to make excuses for her current situation.

“Secrets are only made between intimate people. Weren’t we nothing to each other? Besides, I don’t remember anything, so what could I hide?”

Ga Eun tried her best to use her head and evade Do Jun’s questions. Just as Do Jun was about to ask the next question, an elaborate course meal was served in front of them.

Even looking at the food placed in front of her, Ga Eun didn’t feel the desire to eat. Rather, the smell of balsamic sauce sprinkled on the salad made her nauseous again.

Ga Eun held her breath for a moment, trying not to show that she was feeling unwell in front of Do Jun. Do Jun, who hadn’t noticed anything yet, cut the steak in front of him into bite-sized pieces and placed them in front of Ga Eun.

“You should eat even if you don’t have an appetite.”

At Do Jun’s words that sounded like a command, Ga Eun picked up her fork and took the smallest piece of beef. She slowly put it in her mouth and swallowed it while holding her breath.

“How about having some wine together?”

As soon as Do Jun raised his hand to call the manager, Ga Eun quickly moved her lips.

“I have some urgent documents to deal with at home.”

At Ga Eun’s cold words refusing the wine, Do Jun couldn’t insist on offering wine anymore.

The small piece of beef in front of Ga Eun felt too big. As Do Jun kept placing lobster and salad on her plate, Ga Eun felt like she couldn’t bear it anymore.

“Excuse me, I’ll go to the restroom for a moment.”

Ga Eun stood up hurriedly, maintaining a calm expression as much as possible. As soon as she passed out of Do Jun’s sight, Ga Eun ran at full speed towards the restroom. She felt like she was about to throw up as nausea rose.

Seeing the toilet, Ga Eun vomited the few bites of beef she had eaten.

As Ga Eun didn’t return from the restroom for a while, Do Jun’s suspicion deepened.

“Let’s just have a glass of wine.”

Before their divorce, Ga Eun had tried several times to create drinking occasions with Do Jun. It was none other than Do Jun who had avoided those occasions, making excuses about company work.

‘So this is how it feels to be rejected.’

It felt like a bitter taste was spreading in his mouth, as if he had taken a bite of dark chocolate. A moment later, Ga Eun sat down in front of Do Jun again as if nothing had happened.

Do Jun immediately noticed her smudged lipstick.

“Are you feeling unwell?”

Ga Eun’s eyes widened for a moment at Do Jun’s words, which accurately pointed out her situation. She tried to regain her composure and quickly continued with her excuses.

“I must have been very nervous about my first day at work. I feel a bit under the weather.”

Although he sensed Ga Eun’s clumsy lie, Do Jun didn’t question her further.

“Then, shall we get up now?”

Do Jun hadn’t eaten anything even while Ga Eun was in the restroom. The course meal remained on the table just as it had been served.

“You should eat your meal.”

Ga Eun felt somewhat sorry and urged Do Jun to eat.

“You know I don’t eat at this hour.”

Only then did Ga Eun recall that she had never seen Do Jun eating late at night. But she calmly responded to his words.

“I’m sorry. Because I lost my memory…”

As she trailed off, Do Jun’s eyes wavered for a very brief moment.

The moment he thought she was pretending to have lost her memory, she would act like someone who really didn’t know anything. Because of this, Do Jun couldn’t clearly grasp what Ga Eun’s true self was in front of him now.

As Do Jun came out in front of the restaurant, Driver Kim opened the door as if he had been waiting.

“It wouldn’t be a good thing for rumors of discord between us to spread until you establish yourself as a team leader.”

Do Jun warned her preemptively, as if afraid Ga Eun might say she would go separately again. This time, Ga Eun got into the seat next to Do Jun without a word.

As soon as the car started, Do Jun spoke to Driver Kim first.

“Please stop at a nearby pharmacy.”

“Yes, Representative.”

The car stopped in front of a pharmacy not far from the restaurant. As Driver Kim unbuckled his seatbelt, Do Jun opened the car door first and went outside.

At Do Jun’s sudden action, Ga Eun could only stare blankly at his retreating figure. After some time passed, Do Jun’s hand held a thick medicine bag.

‘No way.’

Ga Eun frowned deeply, feeling an ominous premonition. As soon as Do Jun got into the car, he handed the medicine to Ga Eun indifferently.

“Take the medicine before we leave.”

Ga Eun was in no state to hastily take any medicine. But she couldn’t ignore Do Jun’s consideration in personally going to the pharmacy for her, putting her in an awkward situation.

“When my stomach settles, I’ll take it at home.”

Ga Eun pretended to be calming her stomach and closed her eyes tightly, avoiding Do Jun’s gaze. Until the car arrived at the apartment entrance, Ga Eun had to pretend to be fast asleep.

A moment later, when the car stopped, Do Jun gently shook Ga Eun’s arm to wake her. Only then did Ga Eun pretend to have just woken up and hurriedly got out of the car.

The moment waiting for the elevator felt like a hundred years. Due to her continuous nausea, she wanted to take her prescribed morning sickness medication as quickly as possible.

As soon as she arrived home, Ga Eun went into her room and searched for the morning sickness medication in the drawer.

As soon as she heard the sound of water in the bathroom, Ga Eun headed to the kitchen, trying not to make any footsteps. Only after secretly taking her morning sickness medication could Ga Eun catch her breath.

“What kind of medicine is that?”

Do Jun, who she thought had gone into the bathroom, suddenly approached from the side and asked about the name of the medicine.

“I have a separate medicine I take often for indigestion.”

Ga Eun pretended to be calm and drank all the remaining water in the cup. Her heart felt like it was about to burst.

“I’ll shower first.”

Ga Eun hurriedly entered the bathroom, avoiding Do Jun’s persistent gaze. Ga Eun knew Do Jun’s persistent personality better than anyone.

That meant the longer she stayed in this house, the higher the chance of Do Jun discovering her pregnancy.

Although her belly wasn’t showing yet, as time passed, it would become too obvious to hide. Ga Eun felt dizzy at that thought.

She had to somehow finalize the divorce with Do Jun before he discovered her pregnancy. That was the only thought in Ga Eun’s mind.

When Ga Eun came out after drying her hair and didn’t see Do Jun in the living room, she let out a sigh of relief.

Even when he was at home, he mostly stayed cooped up in his study and rarely came out. That meant he had a lot of company work to handle alone. Ga Eun comforted herself.

In the past, Do Jun’s behavior of not even showing his face properly at home had only felt disappointing, but now Ga Eun felt relieved by his actions. Ga Eun hurriedly walked towards the bedroom.

Do Jun, whom she had expected to be in the study, was already lying on the bed waiting for Ga Eun. Ga Eun tried to hide her startled expression and probed Do Jun’s mind.

“Don’t you have any work to handle today?”

Ga Eun felt like she would fall into a deep sleep as soon as she lay on the bed. But because Do Jun was firmly planted on the bed, Ga Eun couldn’t lie down right away.

“Go to sleep first. I have some work left to finish.”

Just as Ga Eun was about to leave the bedroom, Do Jun called her name in a low voice.

“Yoon Ga Eun.”

Like someone who had committed a crime, Ga Eun’s body stiffened in place at Do Jun’s voice. Ga Eun couldn’t ignore Do Jun’s voice and couldn’t take a single step.

“You know what I hate the most.”

At Do Jun’s words, Ga Eun’s lips trembled slightly. Ga Eun knew better than anyone that what Do Jun hated most was lying.

The fact that he despised liars as if he could kill them. She knew it all too well. Ga Eun swallowed dryly and looked into his eyes, pretending not to know.

“What is it?”

Do Jun stared directly into her eyes as if trying to determine if she was really lying to him.

“Yoon Ga Eun.”

Do Jun called Ga Eun’s name once more. Just as Ga Eun was about to answer, Do Jun’s lips parted faster.

“Are you pregnant?”

Do Jun and Ga Eun’s gazes met in mid-air.
