Hyun-sook turned to face Nam-tae, whose face was seething with irritation.
“If it’s so important, do it yourself.”
“What?”
“I’m too old for this. I can’t do your errands anymore.”
“What else do you do at home? You don’t even do household chores, and there’s no grandchild to take care of. Besides, can Se Ah even get pregnant? Is it because her body’s weak, or does she not want kids? They say young people these days don’t want children. Is she like that?”
Nam-tae’s specialty was to escalate blame. In his youth, he’d join with his mother-in-law to turn his anger towards Hyun-sook’s family or Kang Woo. Now, he was displeased with Se Ah.
Thinking one more tolerance would bring peace to the household, Hyun-sook had been suppressing her anger. She had managed to cope since the mother-in-law’s death.
“It’s up to the kids.”
“You should back off like that. That’s why your son doesn’t respect his father.”
“I have nothing more to say to you. From here to there.”
Hyun-sook stretched her finger across the wardrobe.
“Everything is yours, so pack whatever you need.”
She dismissed him coldly and left the dressing room.
‘Has that woman lost her mind?’
Left alone, Nam-tae’s face flushed red with suppressed anger. Shaking his tie violently, he called out.
“Young-cheon!”
She entered the dressing room promptly.
“Yes, Assemblyman.”
“Has Director Lee arrived?”
“Not yet.”
“Get him on the phone.”
“Yes.”
Young-cheon connected the call and respectfully handed the phone to Nam-tae.
“Director Lee. Where are you?”
[Almost there.]“Turn around right now. Go to the department store and buy something from her favorite brand, what’s it called?”
[H Brand.]“Right, get anything expensive from there.”
[Understood.]“One gift and she’ll shut up.”
Nam-tae quickly regained his composure.
“Then go to my house, pack my bags, and head to Jeju. I’ll take this driver’s car to the airport.”
[Alright.]After hanging up, Young-cheon held her hands together.
Nam-tae’s eyes were fierce as he placed the phone in her hand.
“You have a tough job with such a demanding mistress. Your son is starting college, right? I’ll pay his tuition. Just make sure to keep your mouth shut.”
“Thank you.”
Kang Woo gazed down at Se Ah nestled in his arms. He moved as little as possible, careful not to disturb Se Ah’s deep slumber.
Her small hand twitched on his chest.
He was unbearably adorable. The persistent desire to wake Se Ah with another kiss, just as she seemed exhausted to death, was tempting him to the edge.
Ultimately, he couldn’t resist his selfishness and pressed his lips to hers.
“……Hmm ……what.”
Startled like a wild animal, Se Ah pushed him away from her chest.
Although she didn’t explicitly say she disliked it, her eyes were already rejecting him.
“Did you sleep well?”
“……Yes.”
Since she was awake anyway, his guilt vanished. Kang Woo lifted his hand to play with her luscious hair.
Annoyed by his gesture, Se Ah adjusted the strap of her slip.
“Harsh.”
“I’m shy.”
“Still?”
“I don’t know…… Stop looking at me like that. We were just making dumplings. Suddenly…… I thought it was pure intention.”
Feeling guilty, Kang Woo chuckled.
“There was a purpose in making dumplings.”
“Naughty.”
As Se Ah tried to lie down properly, Kang Woo didn’t let her.
“Doesn’t your arm get numb?”
“It’s bearable.”
A typical and frank reply from him. Se Ah giggled in response.
Listening to his heartbeat felt so good. His unique body warmth, his firm and comforting embrace.
She cautiously touched his strong arm, wrapped tightly around her.
She hadn’t fully explored his muscular body yet. Even the slightest caress of his skin surface made him react.
His long eyelashes lifted slightly, casting a cool shadow, as his sturdy body took over hers.
“What if we have a child? Will our contract as a window-display couple end?”
“……Why suddenly that question?”
“It’s a plausible scenario.”
It was their first serious conversation about having a child. Se Ah blinked her heavy eyelids.
“Do you want a child?”
“Yes.”
Surprised by his quick and clear answer, Se Ah was inwardly startled.
“You never talked about having a child before.”
“There was no need to ask before. It’s natural for a married couple to have a child.”
“Ah…….”
Kang Woo’s eyes narrowed.
“That reaction seems like you’re not keen.”
“We agreed to take our time and start over slowly.”
“Still, a child might happen unexpectedly.”
His persistent gaze, alternating between coaxing and demanding, followed her, yet she couldn’t easily respond. Their relationship was still uncertain, and more importantly, she had to reveal her past to him first.
“……Of course, we should have it.”
Though the likelihood of pregnancy was almost nil, she only answered the remote possibility. It was sincere, after all.
Content with her response, Kang Woo’s lips curled.
“Promise me. If you get pregnant, tell me first.”
He didn’t know she was on birth control.
Considering natural conception, he spoke with anticipation. His excitement was palpable, making her heart heavy.
Would he still want the child after knowing the past? Although he would take responsibility, would it be a stumbling block to their divorce, making the child unwelcome?
“Hurry.”
“Promise.”
Se Ah reluctantly crossed her fingers, knowing the odds of pregnancy were slim.
“Don’t worry. I’ll be a good father.”
He reassured her with more conviction in his voice.
“Talking about a baby feels weird…… I’m confused by how fast and sudden our relationship is changing.”
“I want to be tied down.”
“What?”
The necklace around Se Ah’s slender neck, identical to his, shimmered.
Kang Woo traced the HOlIC engraved on the metal surface and then aligned the pendant with his lips.
His intense and passionate gaze tightly bound Se Ah.
“A child will bind you and me forever. That’s what I want.”
Scenes of their happy life together, with maybe three or four kids, flashed in Kang Woo’s mind.
Perhaps inheriting his father’s ruthless nature, he was now dreaming of a relationship that wouldn’t break, a binding one.
When the male lead is punished by carrying the female lead’s child and having periods like a woman
“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?”
