“Starting with the hospital director, let’s thoroughly investigate this hospital. Deploy all personnel here.”
“Understood.”
drama continued to rise day by day. Especially, praises for Oh Chaewon’s beauty and acting were noticeably increasing. It had been quite a while since there were more positive comments than negative ones. Although she should be in a good mood, Oh Chaewon didn’t smile.
Today is the final episode, but she didn’t even want to look at the monitor. Everything was annoying.
“Team leader, is this really true? He went to a hotel with a woman.”
“Yes. That’s correct.”
“That woman. That seaside pension. Yoon Dajeong.”
“Yes.”
Ha. It was so absurd that a chuckle escaped.
Women, being sensitive creatures, easily waver with the slightest suspicion. Yoon Dajeong played perfectly into Jaeho’s plan, and now that she knew the truth, she must be feeling extremely miserable by now. Even without looking, it was obvious.

But she followed him to the hotel…
Did Jaeho cover up all the truth? How is that possible? It’s true that he secretly called her to the pension.
Or did Yoon Dajeong pretend not to know and prepare to stay by his side? If that’s the case, it would be very awkward.
Oh Chaewon hoped that Yoon Dajeong would feel miserable and distance herself. She didn’t want a life like other third-generation chaebol heirs, where marriage and lovers were separate. She wanted everything about Jaeho.
Yoon Dajeong had no intention of hiding in the shadows and watching Jaeho play the role of someone’s lover. Typically, such issues could never be solved by manipulating the man; it would only provoke more resentment and fuel love.
A dad who had a hidden lover. A mom who sweetly indulged in that dad.
Despite making an effort to appear harmonious, no one was unaware that they were, in fact, a show-window couple. Oh Chaewon, too, pretended not to know.
She bit her lips. She would never live like her mom, who, unable to help it, suffered internally over a secret lover.
“How much more miserable do you have to get before you’ll leave? Huh?”
In the end, was it necessary for her to reveal her true self?
Recalling the plan she had left as the last resort, she instructed Director Kim.

“For now, please check if the two of them continue to meet regularly. But Jaeho said it would be difficult to tail him. How did you find out so easily? Director, you’re amazing.”
“I haven’t seen Director Jeong around lately. That’s why the opportunity presented itself.”
Busy with other matters.
Well, it was something unrelated to her. As long as she received good reports, it was more than welcome. If there were no inconvenient people, it was even better.
“Good job. Please contact me again.”
Oh Chaewon saw him off with a forced smile.
Narin Nursing Hospital, located on the outskirts of Seoul, was not large but had a deep history.
Under the direction of the kind director, many long-serving employees made the satisfaction of patients and their guardians high. The quality of meals and rehabilitation therapy was also good, making it difficult to find an open spot.
DaJeong’s mother, Cha Myeongsuk, was here.
DaJeong came to the nursing hospital by driving herself after a long time. Although she had stopped by right after coming up from Taean, it was only to the extent of showing her face, and today she planned to stay for quite a while.

“Hello.”
Greeting the nurses at the information desk, when she pressed the elevator button to go up to the patient room, it happened.
“Oh! Ms. Cha Myeongsuk’s guardian! You moved rooms, right? The elevator to the odd-numbered floors is on the opposite side.”
“Move rooms? No, I didn’t. I haven’t done that.”
“Really? You definitely moved to the VIP room. Wait a moment.”
After checking the computer once again, the nurse, with a confident tone, spoke again.
“You moved. Just go to room 301.”
DaJeong boarded the odd-numbered floor elevator with an awkward smile.
It was her first time on the third floor. She thought she knew every nook and cranny of this hospital, but coming here, it turned out not to be the case. The luxurious interior of the VIP floor was unfamiliar to DaJeong.
‘Was there a mistake with the room… How much does it cost here?’
When the door to room 301 opened, a spacious living room was the first thing that caught the eye. Beyond the neatly arranged arch-shaped door at the end of the hospital room, there was a bed where her mother lay, surrounded by bright windows, a sofa, a TV, and well-arranged furniture.

Near the bed, a humidifier was running, and a flower vase, unfamiliar to her eyes, was also visible. Judging by the door at the back, it seemed there was more space.
‘An incredibly nice hospital room… something must be wrong.’
Concerns about the cost made her heart race. Even if it was a mistake on the hospital’s part, the fact remained that the room was used, and she would likely be billed. She knew better than anyone how exorbitant the cost of a VIP room was.
Staying for just a month could cost tens of millions.
First, let’s go to the billing department. Let’s settle the accounts…
At that moment, a stranger came out of the bathroom. She was a lively-looking woman in her fifties.
“Oh? Hello. You’re the daughter, right? I’m the one taking care of Ms. Cha Myeongsuk during the day.”
“There was a caregiver who was originally here.”
“That person now comes at night.”
“At night? I’ve never hired a caregiver for 24 hours.”

“Well, I’m working according to the schedule the hospital gave me.”
“I’ll go to the billing department first.”
DaJeong left the room without properly greeting her mother. As she was about to run somewhere, she coincidentally met the assigned nurse in front of the room.
“Someone came and paid a year’s worth of hospital and caregiving fees in advance for Ms. Cha Myeongsuk. Also, for a 24-hour caregiver in a VIP room. Since we received the payment, we will continue to provide the service as is.”
The face of a smiling man flashed in her mind. How did he find out about this place?
She felt irritated.
She couldn’t accept this. Her pride was already in tatters with the 2 billion she declared she wouldn’t pay back.
But as an excuse to repay this, she couldn’t entangle herself with the man again. In this helpless situation, her lips dried up.
“Do you know who it is?”
“I’m not sure. Anyway, they said to provide the best environment for Ms. Cha Myeongsuk. If additional fees are needed, they’ll pay anytime.”

“Thank you.”
Afterwards, she checked here and there, but the answers were the same. Since they received the money, they were providing benefits. DaJeong returned to the somewhat disheveled hospital room. The caregiver informed her about her mother’s condition today and politely left the room, suggesting she have a comfortable conversation.
DaJeong looked down at the note she received from the billing department.
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…?
