Minhyuk’s face approached Dahyun, who was nestled in his arms. Dahyun didn’t push him away.
But just before Minhyuk’s lips touched hers, the ringtone of Minhyuk’s mobile phone rang out.
“Ugh.”
Confirming that the caller who interrupted the flow was Sihoon, Minhyuk reluctantly answered the call.
“What terrible timing for a call… What?”
Annoyed at the call, Minhyuk’s face stiffened. Dahyun, who had been watching him, also looked at him with an anxious gaze.
“No, it’ll be buried right away even if I check now. I’ll verify it.”
After exchanging a few serious words, Minhyuk looked at Dahyun, who was standing awkwardly with the mobile phone in her hand, and sighed.
“Dahyun, we’re in trouble.”
Just when they thought they had overcome one crisis, they faced another obstacle. An article had been released. The news that Su Cheol had confined Yeonsil spread uncontrollably. Originally, Sihoon was planning to spread the illegal surveillance of Yusoong.
However, someone else intervened first, and it was an affair unknown unless it was Su Cheol’s family.
Who on earth?
It was sensitive to inform Dahyun, especially since it was an article about Yeonsil. Just when things were finally starting to settle down.
“…What’s going on?”
Dahyun noticed Minhyuk’s hesitation and asked.
Minhyuk bit his lip, hesitated for a moment, and then handed over the mobile phone.
“I think we need to check the article.”
“What article? Did a false article about Ms. Kim Yoon-hee come out?”
Dahyun, puzzled, took the mobile phone handed to her by Minhyuk, wondering if someone had spread malicious rumors about Kim Yoon-hee and Minhyuk.
If it was a false article, they needed to issue a correction article before it was too late.
However, after confirming that the article was going in a completely different direction, Dahyun’s face turned pale.
Her fingers tapping on the screen slowed down.
Dahyun read the titles and contents of countless articles that had already been published, one by one.
“Dahyun.”
Minhyuk, worried that she might be shocked, reached out and held her shoulders. As expected, her shoulders trembled.
“Father wouldn’t personally orchestrate something like this. There’s no need to expose his weaknesses and attract attention. Especially with a disadvantageous article like this.”
Dahyun handed the phone to Minhyuk, no longer reading the articles.
Minhyuk accepted the mobile phone and comforted the unsettled her.
“We’re looking for the person who spread it. Don’t worry too much.”
Dahyun nodded, forcing a smile, as if trying to put aside any thoughts. She had planned to stop thinking about anything when she returned home today, but something had happened in the meantime.
It felt like it wasn’t a time for a deep rest. Dahyun speculated about who might have triggered the articles, but apart from Jiyeon and Youngsuk, no one came to mind.
She briefly considered Kim Yoon-hee, but she had no way of knowing about Yeonsil’s existence and her family. Even if she did, she wouldn’t engage in such a crazy act of triggering an article. After all, there was no benefit for Kim Yoon-hee even if she did.
The content of the article was about Su Cheol keeping Yeonsil, who was unconscious, hidden from everyone and only looking at her.
Well, it wasn’t entirely wrong. Rather, it accurately pinpointed the core. Articles claiming that confining Yeonsil was no different from imprisoning his former wife continued to emerge.
“…Maybe this could be a good thing for me.”
If the articles about Yeonsil being confined helped in bringing her to him, then maybe this side was better.
She didn’t want to put Yeonsil in the public eye, and she never got around to it. Someone else did it for her.
“Are you really okay?”
Considering all the events she went through today, he worried if she could handle it.
“Even if I think about it, this might be better, but I worry about you.”
“I’m okay.”
As Da-hyun took a deep breath, her pale face gradually regained color.
“You can’t keep hiding forever.”
Smiling at his warm gaze filled with concern, Da-hyun smiled.
Su Cheol must have seen the article, and Minhyuk wondered how he would handle it.
It was obvious that he would deny and negate, but Da-hyun intended to see how Su Cheol would respond.
However, it was puzzling. It hadn’t been five hours since Su Cheol left his house. Why did he hesitate to reveal Yeonsil’s existence until now? It wasn’t like she was in the same situation.
Moreover, someone knew about Yeonsil. Da-hyun wanted to meet the person who knew Yeonsil.
She wondered how they knew Yeonsil and when they found out that Su Cheol was taking her. She wanted to know why the articles were triggered today.
“Mr. Minhyuk, the time the article broke is when you and Mr. Minhyuk will come home and talk. Is this a coincidence, or was it planned?”
“To call it a coincidence, the timing is too incredible.”
Da-hyun also agreed with Minhyuk’s words. The timing seemed too well coordinated to be a coincidence.
When Minhyuk looked at the flow of the article coldly, there was no harm to Da-hyun at the moment.

When he discovers she has gone, he risks everything to pursue her on land, enduring agonizing pain to transform his tail into human legs…
One-line summary: Male lead chases female lead. The male lead’s love is a bit sick, an invincible love brain.
Synopsis
During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.
Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”
Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”
With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.
Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?
He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”
