“By the way, Secretary Kim, what happened to the task I assigned earlier?”
“Oh, I was about to report it.”
Changjeong nodded as if urging them to continue the story, extending a hand towards the secretary. The secretary quickly pulled a pen from their jacket pocket and gently placed it in Changjeong’s hand.
Click, the sound of the pen turning quietly echoed. Changjeong signed the documents at the last section.
Handing the documents and pen back to the secretary, Changjeong, feeling tired, took off his glasses and massaged his temples.
The secretary held the documents in one hand and put the pen back in the pocket with the other, then raised the corner of their mouth with a determined expression.
“We’ve identified the location where Hansucheol has hidden Baek Yeonsil.”
“Good. It’s time to find Yeonsil now. Once I know how my daughter has been living all this time, I might open my eyes wide and strangle a chairman’s neck. But before that, I need to tell the truth to Saaga.”
At the secretary’s confident statement, Changjeong’s smooth lips curved, the fatigue in his eyes momentarily forgotten.
Minhyuk immediately got up as soon as he received a text from Kim Yoon-hee about the meeting place and time with Dahyun. The time to return to the company had already passed.
Just in case, Minhyuk contacted Shihun and postponed the beta test by a day. He planned to handle the postponed work once the misunderstanding between Dahyun and him was resolved.
Although Minhyuk didn’t expect Kim Yoon-hee to smoothly admit that the child was not his, her strong determination not to meet Dahyun seemed evident. It appeared that Kim Yoon-hee was desperate and revealed the truth ahead of time.
“Wake up. Let’s go right away.”
As Minhyuk stood up, Kim Yoon-hee gathered her shopping bags and followed him.
“Oops!”
Kim Yoon-hee, rushing to pick up the shopping bags, stumbled forward, twisting her ankle as they exited the café.
“Oh, Oppa!”
Yoon-hee urgently called Minhyuk when she was about to fall. However, Minhyuk merely stopped walking, turned around, and watched her stumble forward without reaching out to help.
“Ack!”
Losing grip of the shopping bags, Kim Yoon-hee awkwardly fell forward.
Observing the scattered shopping bags, Minhyuk, with his hands in his pockets, looked down at Kim Yoon-hee’s back as she stumbled, shaking her head.
Fortunately, the place where Yoon-hee fell was not crowded, but it wasn’t entirely empty either.
From a distance, Yoon-hee pressed her lower lip tightly at Minhyuk, who seemed to mock her and talk as if it was troublesome.
If Minhyuk had held her in time, this embarrassing incident wouldn’t have happened.
Even though he knew she was about to fall, Minhyuk didn’t reach out to help.
“No time. Don’t think about making Dahyun wait. Especially in the early stages of pregnancy, you need to be careful and avoid stress.”
In his voice, filled with impatience, implying, “What are you still doing there?” winded out from Yoon-hee, who bowed her head.
Yeah, Kang Minhyuk wasn’t originally a gentle man. He knew it but forgot while watching how he treated Dahyun.
“She’ll get up eventually…”
Yoon-hee, enduring embarrassment and shame, put strength into her knees, slowly raising her upper body while Minhyuk watched her fallen back.
Minhyuk kneeled down and began picking up the fallen shopping bags one by one, glancing at Yoon-hee’s back. Then, he checked the time.
If he lingered here any longer, he would be late for the appointment.
Minhyuk felt anxious. He was afraid she might suddenly change her mind and not believe him.
Even though she had prepared evidence and was ready to apologize without misunderstanding, it was a waste of time for Kim Yoon-hee to stumble and fall.
“It’s expected to be congested. We need to hurry.”
Minhyuk’s focus was solely on Dahyun. He didn’t want to keep her waiting, and he missed her scent terribly.
As Minhyuk’s thoughts were filled with Dahyun, Yoon-hee’s voice gradually faded.
“Even if I hate it, that’s how it is. I could have held you…”
Holding all the shopping bags, Kim Yoon-hee let out a sigh of resentment and sorrow.
Minhyuk sincerely thought that Kim Yoon-hee’s brain structure had gone awry. It didn’t seem like she was like this before.
“Yoon-hee, did you forget what you did while falling? Pull yourself together.”
Minhyuk’s Adam’s apple made a gulping sound as he let out a short chuckle.
He found Yoon-hee’s childish whining, complaining about not holding her hand despite knowing how patient he was, absurd.
It was necessary to imprint the situation she was in back into Yoon-hee’s head.
“Yoon-hee, you need to know your priorities. Does the person going to Villa have time to fuss around? Do I have to hold your hand in a situation where apologizing to the person involved is insufficient?”
“…….”
“Why should I?”
I should be holding you.
Under Minhyuk’s cold gaze, Yoon-hee’s lips weakly drooped. She wanted to express her frustration, saying she couldn’t help it, and how she had no money.
But looking back at what she did to Dahyun, who had no memory of the past, she felt grateful that she could still walk on two legs.
“Okay, sorry. Let’s go quickly.”
Moreover, since Minhyuk offered to support the child’s medical expenses, she had to let go of her pride and everything else.
Minhyuk quickly walked past Yoon-hee, who was heading towards the elevator, standing by her side.
Pressing his forehead with his fingers, Minhyuk suppressed his irritation. Even the time spent talking to Kim Yoon-hee seemed wasteful.
He lowered his voice to be barely audible to Yoon-hee, conscious of people passing by.
“If Dahyun collapses in shock again like last time, and if there’s any problem with our child, do you think I’ll just stand by quietly like a chairman?”
“…….”
As they reached the elevator, Yoon-hee’s complexion gradually turned pale.
Minhyuk finished speaking and walked past Yoon-hee.
He stood in front of the elevator door with Yoon-hee behind him.
Remembering Minhyuk’s warning, Yoon-hee’s face slowly paled.
Minhyuk passed by Yoon-hee after saying what he had to say.
He stood in front of the elevator door with Yoon-hee behind him.
Yoon-hee turned her head back, recalling Minhyuk’s whispered warning. Three people who looked like bodyguards were standing behind her.
The attitude was clean, clearly indicating not to even think about escaping.
Yoon-hee’s eyes were tingling, and she tensed up.
“It’ll be difficult to live peacefully while holding your breath.”
Indeed, Minhyuk was a dual personality, one who begged like an angel only to Dahyun.
