“I have a business planning meeting soon. Just in case, I should look at them. Director, please leave first.”

Meeting Jaeho’s gaze, Director Jung laughed quite convincingly.

“Don’t make me a bad boss. Go in and rest soon.”

Director Jung briefly thought about what Jaeho had done over the past week.

Having obtained a confession from Hajeo through Hajeo, Jaeho had provided data along with Hajeo’s personal information to Prosecutor Kim, whom he had informed in advance. Thanks to this, a reinvestigation into the fire accident 13 years ago had been launched. Director Jung tried to stop Jaeho, but he couldn’t break his stubbornness.

Once the reinvestigation starts, Inhae will surface, and the reason why Inhae tried to set fire to the students’ dormitory must also be revealed. The childhood of Jaeho, which Heontaeha wanted to hide so desperately, was a matter of time before it was exposed.

It was also the biggest secret of Jaeho that he wanted to hide from Yoon Dajeong.
Director Jung insisted that he would handle Hajeo on his own for everyone’s sake, but Jaeho did not yield to his intentions.

Whether his unfortunate past was exposed to the world or not, it didn’t matter to him. Until the moment Hajeo was brought in, he had wanted to hide the fact that Jinhyuk had orchestrated everything, erasing such memories entirely.

He acted as if he wanted everything to be completely ruined.

As soon as Hajeo was arrested, the prosecution summoned Kwun Seokpil, the director of Yonghyun Mental Hospital. If an investigation into the hospital was initiated, it wouldn’t take long to find its connection to Jinhyuk.

Jaeho had already completed the investigation into the unauthorized funds related to TaeMyung Construction. Jinhyuk was embezzling money through a simple method.

Over several years, he had embezzled hundreds of billions by paying purchase prices to overseas subsidiaries’ accounts listed as suppliers of materials to TaeMyung. Since the owner’s family was excluded from audits, they had managed to keep the secret for a long time.

One of the overseas subsidiaries created by Jinhyuk was connected to Kwun Seokpil. The money from TaeMyung was flowing to the person who contributed to killing TaeMyung’s bloodline.

Moreover, it was revealed that Lee Saeah also received enormous rebates from collaborating companies.

Soon, the prosecution would uncover these facts and summon Jinhyuk. If that happened, the shareholders’ meeting would be stopped, but the impact on Jaeho’s side would be considerable.

Director Jung couldn’t grasp how far Jaeho would go.

“… Ms. Yoon Dajeong. May I check how you’re doing and report back?”

Jaeho’s busy hands finally stopped.

Looking at the papers, Jaeho exhaled a short sigh, then lifted his head to gaze at Director Jung.

“It’s fine.”

“I’m collapsing.”

Taking out the approval documents quickly, Director Jung raised his head.

“If you keep this up, I might have to report it to the chairman.”

Jaeho chuckled coldly, slightly furrowing his brows.

“What are you talking about? I’m just doing my job.”

Then, he reached out to take the documents. However, Director Jung was quick. He moved the papers further away, saying,

“Snap out of it.”

“…”

“Go home.”

“I won’t.”

Director Jung’s gaze briefly touched the corner of the desk. He saw a suspicious medicine bottle. When he looked closely, it was an awakening agent. An agent to keep one awake.

Exasperated, he laughed and threw the bottle into the trash.

“How long do you think you can endure by taking this? A week? Two weeks? Then you’ll collapse. You’ll have to be in the hospital like before, unable to move.”

Director Jung quickly snatched the pen from Jaeho’s hand.

Jaeho glared fiercely at Director Jung, but he didn’t open his mouth to argue. After leaning against the back of the chair for a while, he closed his eyes silently.

“All right, hyung. Look after Dajeong a bit.”

The empty voice was like the wind.

“Okay. I’ll have someone secretly watch her and report back…”

“No. Don’t report.”

Jaeho, who had closed his eyes, opened them with a cloudy look, gazing down at the desk.
“Just watch over. The world is so dark. Bad things can happen. Just in case. So, just.”

“…”

“Stay well and safe, just that.”

There’s a sea in Taean with many stars.

On clear days, if you bring a high-performance camera, you could capture a breathtaking scene. It was a nameless, small beach where the sounds of crickets and waves were mixed intermittently. We had promised to go there together next time.

At that time, Dajeong responded.

“To see the stars. Yes. Sure.”

A lie. Even then, you were already full of thoughts about breaking up with me.

Looking back, you were also full of lies.

Staring up at the empty black night sky, it felt suffocating. I had no sense of how much time had passed.

Holding a fruit tray, Mijeong visited Jinyeong’s study.

“Young Master, are you busy?”

“Oh! No. Sister-in-law! Come in.”

Jinyeong’s study was always neat no matter when you entered. Although he appeared a bit lazy on the outside, Mijeong knew he was a quite tidy and principled person.

“Young Master’s study is always the same. How can you be so diligent?”

“Well, because I’m unemployed? If I don’t clean, I might get kicked out.”

Picking up an apple, Jinyeong said jokingly.

“Sister-in-law, stop bringing things like this around. There are many servants. Why bother? Father would make a fuss again if he finds out.”

“I came secretly.”

After a few more pleasant jokes, Mijeong brought up the main topic.

“It’s about Jaeho, Young Master.”

“Why Jaeho?”

“It’s about the atmosphere at the company, which isn’t easy to adapt to. I happened to overhear a conversation between Father and you not long ago. However…”

After a moment of hesitation, Mijeong, as if making a big decision, opened her mouth.

“It seems like Father has ordered to re-investigate Mr. Jinwoo’s accident.”

“Big brother… an accident…?”

Ex-husband Wants Reconciliation

One-line summary: Chasing the wife to the crematorium (making an effort to attract someone who has become indifferent), the female lead doesn’t look back, the second male lead takes the position.

Intro:

To repay the kindness of the older generation, Su Mu crossed into a female-dominated world and became a live-in daughter-in-law of the Yan family, single-handedly saving the Yan family from fire and water.

But her husband, Yan Jiyue, the eldest son of the Yan family, treated her with sarcasm and never showed her a good face.

It wasn’t until after Su Mu’s death that this pampered and arrogant young master shed a few fake tears and pretended to want to die for love.

This life’s kindness was enough. If there was a next life, she would definitely kick Yan Jiyue away.

Who knew that the heavens would be so kind as to allow her to be reborn, returning to the time when she had just married into the Yan family.

Su Mu glanced at the Yan eldest son, who still spoke coldly to her, and threw a divorce letter in front of him.

“Let’s divorce!”

***

Yan Jiyue never imagined that he would be reborn. He happily went to find Su Mu, wanting to make up for the mistakes he had made in his ignorant youth.

Wasn’t the reason the heavens allowed him to be reborn to let him reconcile with Su Mu?

But when he pushed open the door to Su Mu’s room, the person lying on the bed was another man.

Su Mu’s personal attendant, Xie Yi.

Yan Jiyue hated him so much that his teeth itched. In front of Su Mu, Xie Yi was a gentle and considerate whisperer of sweet nothings, but in reality, he was vicious-hearted and deliberately sabotaged their husband and wife relationship.

In the previous life, it was he who secretly hid in Su Mu’s coffin and committed suicide, stealing a step ahead of him to be buried with Su Mu.

Yan Jiyue’s eyes were filled with hatred as he cursed, “What kind of thing are you? Your background is lowly, what right do you have to occupy Su Mu?”

Xie Yi looked at the sleeping Su Mu and no longer pretended to be a whisperer of sweet nothings.

He proudly stuck out his belly, “I have the right because my belly is capable of giving the Wife-master a daughter.”

***

Yan Jiyue was consumed with jealousy. He spread rumors that Xie Yi had once been branded with the mark of a “harlot” on his chest.

But on the night Xie Yi cut off the flesh bearing that mark, Su Mu suddenly realized something was amiss.

“How did you know the exact moment I was poisoned? And why did you show up a month early?”

Xie Yi remained silent, blood from his wound soaking through his robes. His sapphire eyes brimmed with anguish – or was it just a flawless act?

Between a once-arrogant husband now seeking redemption, and a gentle soul willing to die for her – who truly held the darkest secrets? And could it be that Su Mu and Yan Jiyue weren’t the only ones given a second chance at life…?

[Reading Guide]

1. True divorce, chasing the wife to the crematorium, the female lead doesn’t look back, the male lead is Xie Yi.

2. The ex-husband did not cheat, he just realized too late and didn’t realize that he liked the female lead.
