Dahyun picked up the maternity notebook placed on Yul’s desk. She made sure to look at the ultrasound photo attached to the maternity notebook at least once a day.
After her memory returned, she couldn’t bring herself to go to the maternity hospital. She felt like she would burst into tears as soon as she saw the ultrasound.
Dahyun texted Kim Yoon-hee to meet at a cafe near Yul’s house in three hours.
One hour had passed since Dahyun sent a message to Yoon-hee. She was already prepared.
She couldn’t just stay still while waiting for the appointed time.
Various thoughts crossed her mind. She thought about apologizing to Minhyuk if he wasn’t the biological father, as Yoon-hee might have deceived her and caused misunderstandings.
Her heart was beating rapidly. Since she still didn’t know anything, she couldn’t solely trust Yoon-hee’s words.
“Anyway, whether or not he’s the child’s father, it doesn’t change the fact that she deceived me.”
But the reason Dahyun wanted to end things with Minhyuk was because of the existence of Yoon-hee’s child.
It was akin to a fraudulent marriage. However, if Minhyuk chose that path out of fear that Dahyun would leave if she found out, she somewhat understood why.
After ending the call with Yoon-hee, Dahyun contemplated calling Minhyuk.
However, he hadn’t contacted her once. It felt ridiculous to suddenly reach out to him now.
He must be doing well, dismissing her concerns. There was a reason he confidently stated that he had no relationship with Kim Yoon-hee. She turned away from his earnestness.
Despite being shocked by Yoon-hee’s bombshell statement, Dahyun tried to accept it calmly.
If she were Minhyuk, how would she have reacted? She also wanted to know why Soo-cheol personally intervened.
Ding-dash.
Dahyun cancelled the silent mode set for Kim Yoon-hee and changed her phone to vibrate.
Naturally, she thought it would be Yoon-hee’s call, but an unexpected person contacted her.
Dash-Father-Dash.
Soo-cheol contacted her at an incredible timing.
This time, Dahyun had no hesitation in answering Soo-cheol’s call.
“Yes, Father.”
[I heard the story.]“What story?”
[I heard that you and Kang Minhyuk are separated.]Dahyun couldn’t help but let out a bitter laugh at Soo-cheol’s lie spoken as if he just found out.
Did he really think she knew nothing?
Once again, Dahyun wondered how Soo-cheol perceived her. Was she just a tool for gaining benefits for Yusoong Group, or did he consider her as his real daughter?
“Yes, I apologize for not telling you when I contacted you earlier.”
[No, it’s difficult to talk about matters between spouses with parents.]
“Thank you for understanding, Father. And I apologize for being rude when I contacted you last time.”
Here is the English translation of the provided Korean paragraph:
“Dahyun apologized for the day she contacted Suchul a few days ago. Although she felt no remorse, it was an unavoidable choice to soften Suchul’s heart even a little.
Matching Suchul’s taste has been something she’s done since childhood, so it felt familiar.
[Fine, but until when do you plan to stay at a friend’s house? You have a home, so why go to a strict place? Come home soon.]“No, it’s comfortable here.”
[Anyway, if you divorce, you’ll come back to your parents’ house. Whether you come in now or later, what does it matter? Come in today.]Divorce. Suchul was confident that he and Minhyuk would divorce.
If Suchul deliberately called Kim Yunhee to separate his relationship with Minhyuk, he was sure that he believed Kim Yunhee’s child was Minhyuk’s child.
He knows that Suchul knows he left knowing that. Yet, acting like a caring father, considering his daughter while pretending not to know anything, amazed Dahyun.
He was always kind when he needed it. Dahyun knew Suchul’s obvious tactics pattern, yet fell for it every time.
She always smiled and agreed like a fool. If she seemed resentful to Suchul, she might be kicked out of the house and never see Yeonsil again, realizing she had lived as if in subjugation from a young age.
But not anymore.
“I don’t want to.”
[What? Are you rebelling against your father’s words again?]The voice that had softened suddenly became harsh. Dahyun felt strange that Suchul somehow knew where she was staying.
“But how did you know I was at Yul’s house? Minhyuk doesn’t even know I’m here.”
Like Minhyuk, did Suchul also attach someone to her?
Kim Yunhee doesn’t know where she is either. There is no one to tell Suchul where she is.
It feels completely different from when Minhyuk attached someone to her. It was horrifying as if bugs were crawling all over her body.
Suchul realized he made a mistake and fell silent.
I knew it. Since he was at a disadvantage, he uses Yeonsil as an excuse. Dahyun bit her weak flesh in her mouth.
“Father, w-wait!”
