A Dizzying Pregnancy Scheme - Chapter 3

She immediately went to find the truck driver who had received Lee Yun Sook’s instructions. Even though she knew it was reckless and dangerous, she couldn’t think of any other way.

When the driver saw her face, he was startled as if his crime had been discovered and tried to flee. At that moment, Ga Eun grabbed him.

“I’m pregnant.”

At Ga Eun’s sudden confession, the man’s footsteps stopped.

“I heard you have a sick daughter. You shouldn’t become a father she would be ashamed of.”

As the man tried to move again, ignoring Ga Eun’s words, she persuaded him once more.

“I’ll help you. I’ll make sure your daughter’s heart surgery goes well. So please help me.”

The man’s footsteps completely stopped at Ga Eun’s words. He seemed to be in deep thought, unable to easily turn around.

“I want to save my child.”

Ga Eun’s voice trembled with desperation.

The man’s heart wavered as he heard in Ga Eun’s voice the same words he had spoken to the doctor. So his body turned towards Ga Eun.

“What do I need to do?”

Ga Eun planned to perfectly act out the traffic accident instructed by Lee Yun Sook, hand in hand with the truck driver.

But Ga Eun’s plan began to fall apart when the suspicious Lee Yun Sook came to the accident site to see for herself.

When Lee Yun Sook encountered the truck driver not acting as she had instructed, she seemed to realize that Ga Eun already knew about her plan.

The truck driver, as promised to Ga Eun, slightly missed her car and hit the guardrail. Taking advantage of the crowd gathering at the accident scene, he disappeared as agreed with Ga Eun.

At the moment of the accident, Ga Eun pretended to have collapsed on the steering wheel while clearly observing Lee Yun Sook, who couldn’t take her eyes off her until the end.

As she was being transported to World Hospital, only one thought crossed Ga Eun’s mind. That there was only one way to protect her child from her stepmother.

It was to pretend that she couldn’t even remember who she was.

She had to prove that she didn’t know her stepmother had tried to kill her. While pretending not to know anything, Ga Eun planned to divorce Ji Do Jun and run away.

As if trying to erase the terrible memory, Ga Eun unconsciously placed her hand on her belly.

Ga Eun felt a brief pain in her heart at Do Jun’s worried gaze, but when she faced Yun Sook again, she felt a sense of disillusionment as if all the blood had drained from her body.

Ga Eun deliberately closed her eyes to find peace of mind. As the tension eased, sweet sleep poured over her.

When she opened her eyes again, it had quickly grown dark outside. Despite hearing that his daughter had been hospitalized due to a traffic accident, Chairman Yoon Gi Cheol didn’t visit her room, using busy meetings as an excuse.

“I should never have adopted someone like you.”

Whenever Ga Eun didn’t meet his standards, Chairman Yoon Gi Cheol would habitually spit out the same words, as if threatening her.

What expression would Chairman Yoon Gi Cheol make when he found out that the adopted daughter he despised was actually his biological daughter? Ga Eun couldn’t help but laugh bitterly at the thought.

Perhaps even if Chairman Yoon Gi Cheol learned that she was his biological daughter, he might despise her even more and drive her away rather than repenting for his abuse. After all, Chairman Yoon Gi Cheol trusted Lee Yun Sook more than himself.

Although the hospital recommended a week-long stay, Ga Eun planned to discharge herself tomorrow. She had already made arrangements with a doctor before the accident to ensure favorable medical test results.

But Ga Eun’s plans began to unravel when Ji Do Jun became a variable. She couldn’t have anticipated that he hadn’t submitted the divorce papers they had prepared in advance during their marriage contract.

The contracted period had already expired.

She planned to go straight to their newlywed home after discharge and properly initiate the unfinished divorce proceedings. Everything had to be done quickly before her belly started to show. She felt a sense of urgency.

As Ga Eun was reaffirming her resolve, there was a knock at the door. She hurriedly lay back down on the bed and pretended to be asleep.

When no response came from inside the room, the door slowly opened. Just from the sound of footsteps, Ga Eun felt she knew who had come to see her.

A moment later, she felt an intense gaze looking down at her. Ga Eun calmly maintained her act of being asleep. She thought that if Ji Do Jun saw her sleeping, he would give up on talking and leave the room.

But contrary to Ga Eun’s expectations, Do Jun seemed to have no intention of leaving the room, firmly holding her hand. Unable to keep pretending, she gently opened her eyes as if just waking up and pulled her hand away from Do Jun’s grasp.

She didn’t even look at Do Jun’s face, like someone who had decided not to say anything to him.

Ga Eun turned her head to the side, showing that she felt uncomfortable and awkward being in the same space as Do Jun. Undeterred by her behavior, Do Jun firmly grasped her hand again.

“I met with the doctor.”

Ga Eun’s eyes wavered for just a moment at Do Jun’s words.

“He said there’s nothing wrong with your brain.”

Ga Eun knew Do Jun’s persistent nature very well. Once he became suspicious, he had the tenacity to not let go until he found answers.

“Starting tomorrow, it would be good for you to receive psychiatric treatment.”

As Do Jun finished speaking and stood up, Ga Eun felt relieved for a moment. But contrary to her expectations, Do Jun didn’t leave the room and instead started packing Ga Eun’s belongings from the hospital drawer.

As her schedule was suddenly disrupted, Ga Eun blurted out without thinking.

“What are you doing?”

Hearing Ga Eun’s voice, Do Jun turned his head and met her cold gaze.

“So you finally look at my face.”

Ga Eun didn’t want to have a long conversation with Do Jun. She knew that the more she talked with him, the more disadvantageous it would be for her. Do Jun was a man with an exceptionally sharp mind who could assess situations coldly.

The deeper the conversation, the greater the risk of being caught.

“We need to go to our home.”

Do Jun’s sudden action was beyond Ga Eun’s expectations. Her mind went blank, and she couldn’t think of any excuses.

“The doctor said there’s no reason for you to stay in the hospital any longer.”

Ga Eun couldn’t think of any more excuses to stay in the hospital at Do Jun’s words. She had no choice but to change into her patient clothes and follow behind Do Jun.

She had planned to go to their newlywed home, but not like this. Being alone with Do Jun suddenly felt uncomfortable.

Do Jun, who had been waiting outside while she changed clothes, firmly grasped her hand again as soon as she came out.

Ga Eun tried to pull her hand away from Do Jun’s grasp again at his action. But the more she tried to pull away, the tighter his large hand gripped hers.

“I don’t think we’re close enough to hold hands like this.”

Ga Eun moved her lips fiercely, as if trying to escape from Do Jun’s grip.

“How would you know?”

Do Jun’s sharp gaze swept over Ga Eun’s face, as if doubting her claim of memory loss. Ga Eun was taken aback for a moment but soon moved her lips confidently, pretending to be unfazed.

“It doesn’t seem like we have a very affectionate relationship. You didn’t even call me ‘honey’ affectionately while I was in the hospital.”

At Ga Eun’s words, the corners of Do Jun’s mouth turned up as if he had been waiting for this.

“That’s a misunderstanding.”

As Ga Eun finished speaking, Do Jun pressed his body closer to her as they walked.

“We were such an affectionate couple.”

Ga Eun was momentarily stunned, not knowing how to react to Do Jun’s unexpected response. He was a man who had barely spared her a glance for three years.

Could he have developed some sympathy because of Lee Yun Sook’s lie that she had caused the accident to die?

Ga Eun’s head started to ache from the complexity of Do Jun’s suddenly changed attitude. As she frowned, Do Jun stopped walking and placed his hand on her forehead.

“Does your head hurt?”

Ga Eun quickly turned her head to the side, trying to make an excuse, due to Do Jun’s face being so close.

“I did hit my head after all.”

She hurriedly got into Do Jun’s car, as if trying to avoid more questions from him. Fortunately, Do Jun didn’t ask her anything else from getting in the car until arriving at their home.

She pretended to watch Do Jun enter the security code for the front door, acting as if she didn’t know anything, while taking a step back behind him.

“There’s a lot I’ll have to teach you from now on.”

Do Jun’s voice was quite meaningful, causing Ga Eun’s heart to race continuously with anxiety.

-Ding.

Startled by the elevator arrival sound, Ga Eun got in first, pretending to be nonchalant.

She felt her chest tighten, wondering if he had noticed all of her acting. Ga Eun glanced at Do Jun’s face secretly. He was a man whose thoughts were impossible to read.

Although the plan had gone awry, she had to return to this house to get a divorce. Ga Eun tried to compose herself.

After entering the house, Do Jun spoke naturally, as if he really did this every day.

“Do you want to shower first?”

Ga Eun’s eyes widened in surprise at Do Jun’s sudden question.

“Are you going to sleep without showering?”

Ga Eun felt she couldn’t be led around by Do Jun anymore. She had to know why he hadn’t submitted the divorce papers as promised.

“I saw it in the diary in my bag. You said we were supposed to file for divorce.”

Ga Eun asked, staring directly into Do Jun’s eyes while trying to keep her expression blank.

“Why didn’t you file the divorce papers?”

Do Jun’s gaze wavered for a moment at Ga Eun’s question. But it was only for a moment before a brazen voice flowed from his mouth.

“I became curious about you.”

Ga Eun felt angry for a moment at Do Jun’s attitude of doing whatever he wanted until the end. Just as Ga Eun was about to speak first, Do Jun stole her response.

“Divorcing a sick wife would look too shabby for an heir.”

Ga Eun’s mind went blank for a moment at Do Jun’s answer. It was a completely unexpected response from him.

Ga Eun deliberately turned her gaze to the side and hurriedly entered the bathroom first. She had to avoid spending time with the sharp-witted Do Jun as much as possible. Ga Eun planned to head straight to bed pretending to be sleepy after finishing her shower.

After coming out of the bathroom, Ga Eun changed her expression nonchalantly and asked Do Jun, who was waiting for her in the living room.

“Which room should I use while staying here?”

Ga Eun stared blankly at Do Jun’s eyes, as if she couldn’t remember anything. And she waited to see what Do Jun would say to her.

“Our room is over there.”

Do Jun naturally put his arm around her waist.
