“I haven’t changed my mind. Please don’t call me again for such reasons. I’m busy, so I’ll leave first.”
“Where are you going, disrespectfully leaving while adults are speaking!”
“This marriage, you don’t mind if I call it off?”
“What?”
“You need the investment for the new department store, don’t you? That’s why you’re marrying me off.”
“Yura, what are you saying?”
Yeong-eun stepped in, taken aback. Kang-soo was internally stung, realizing Yura had grasped the true purpose behind the marriage.
Initially, Yura wasn’t the focus. He had been looking into arranging a marriage for Yoo-gun with the daughter of Dongho Industries. But Dongho’s eldest son had taken a liking to Yura, and they wanted their son married first.
The plan was to marry off Yura and secure investment for the new department store when the proposal from CH came.
“I’ve already secured investment from CH, and finding another investor would be difficult if we call off the engagement, are you okay with that?”
Kang-soo thought of Yoo-gun. Only he could have told Yura such business details. It was even less likely that Baek Lee Hyun would have told her such things.
Kang-soo was at a loss for words in response to Yura’s clear understanding of the company’s situation. Trying to break his daughter’s stubbornness only to potentially ruin the marriage would be more than just a minor inconvenience.
Especially knowing Yura’s character – once she sets her mind on something, she’d see it through no matter what unfolded. It made Kang-soo all the more cautious.
“Don’t talk like that if you want to use me to expand your business.”
His daughter’s piercing look and disrespectful words made his blood boil, but Kang-soo ultimately remained silent.
Even upon reflection, his face remained hardened with frustration. It was Yoo-gun who broke the heavy silence.
“I told her.”
“Why meddle unnecessarily?” Kang-soo clicked his tongue disapprovingly at Yoo-gun. He had suspected Yoo-gun might have leaked company information to Yura, but never imagined it would be to this extent. He felt betrayed.
Between their sharp glances, Lee Hyun stepped in as a mediator.
“I actually like that Yura works. I was attracted to her for that.”
Kang-soo cleared his throat uncomfortably.
“Yura is keeping up well, so please don’t worry too much.”
“Fine, if you say so.”
Thankfully, Kang-soo dropped the matter.
For now, things might be quiet, but stronger measures would be necessary to silence Kang-soo in the future. Given his nature, ensuring Yura’s freedom was an unavoidable choice.
The meal ended in a somewhat chilly atmosphere. Lee Hyun saw Kang-soo off and then headed to the bar at Hotel Grand Garden with Yoo-gun.
“I was wondering why you suddenly invited me for dinner.”
Officially, it was to greet Yoo-gun, who couldn’t attend the family meeting, but the real intention was to stop interference in Yura’s life.
“Someone seemed constantly upset.”
“Did Yura say anything?”
Lee Hyun simply sipped his whiskey in response to Yoo-gun’s question.
Yura wasn’t the type to easily open up about the things happening to her. Even the reason behind her shaken expression on the day she visited Se-jin’s practice room remained a mystery.
He would ask her a hundred, a thousand times if she would answer, but knowing she wouldn’t, he just waited patiently.
“Not her style,” Yoo-gun shook his head, knowing Yura’s nature.
Yura’s secretive nature was intriguing, but her secrets regarding Se-jin increasingly agitated Lee Hyun.
All he could do was to delve deeper into her surroundings, guessing at the secrets she didn’t reveal.
He wanted to pull her away from that performance, but feared it might indeed jeopardize their marriage, so he couldn’t act rashly.
“Did you really fall for her just like that?”
As he swirled the whiskey in his glass, Lee Hyun let out a chuckle.

“I’ve given birth to two children for you, yet you still think about him.
Was I nothing but his substitute to you from beginning to end?”
