After Chang-jung left, Da-hyun said she wanted to be alone and went into the room. Min-hyuk expressed that he wanted to stay with her, but she insisted that he should call her when Kim Yoon-hee arrives.
“Da-hyun, let’s talk about it next time, not today, when Kim Yoon-hee comes. You need to rest now. Calling Kim Yoon-hee won’t make you feel better; there’s nothing good for you.”
“No. Please call Ms. Kim Yoon-hee. If she knows she did something wrong, she should face the consequences of her actions.”
Min-hyuk suggested discussing what to do with Soo-cheol first before calling her, as it was not too late. However, Da-hyun stubbornly asked him to call Kim Yoon-hee today. To fulfill her request, Min-hyuk contacted Kim Yoon-hee.
Kim Yoon-hee subtly asked if Da-hyun still hadn’t cooled down. Da-hyun was about to say that Kim Yoon-hee meant nothing to her after discovering the secret of her birth. How could Soo-cheol not be her father?
“I never thought we looked alike, but he really was not related by a single drop of blood.”
When Kim Yoon-hee comes, Da-hyun apologized to Min-hyuk, asking him to stay out and she felt sorry for him. Amidst her apology, when she entered the room, Min-hyuk felt even worse.
Soo-cheol, who should be apologizing, walks confidently with his head held high, and Da-hyun, who should receive the apology, is apologizing on his behalf.
Min-hyuk wanted to go find Soo-cheol right away and ask what he had been thinking treating Da-hyun like that.
Min-hyuk understood why Soo-cheol openly discriminated against Hahn Ji-yeon and Da-hyun.

It was Soo-cheol who married knowing that Da-hyun was not his child. Instead of raising her with love, he was mentally abusing her.
“By the way, what about the unchecked USB.”
Seeing Da-hyun entering her room, Min-hyuk stepped down the stairs, but stopped and got lost in thought.
However, he couldn’t bring himself to ask her what the square black USB was causing her distress and agony.
It was only after Da-hyun went into the room that Min-hyuk finally remembered what Chang-jung had said. He slowly revisited the conversation, wondering if there was something intentionally omitted by Chang-jung that he didn’t understand.
“It’s endless.”
Min-hyuk was curious about what Da-hyun was doing right now, but he let her be alone for a while as she wanted.
Taking off the stopped steps, Min-hyuk headed to the kitchen.
Worried about her body due to the stress that had been going on since Kim Yoon-hee misunderstood that she had her child.
Min-hyuk thought it would be over once Kim Yoon-hee was resolved, but it turned out to be a never-ending series of problems. Min-hyuk’s face darkened.

If Da-hyun had considered Soo-cheol her birth parents, she would have endured harsh words from him and being ignored by Ji-yeon and Young-sook.
Having endured over a decade of mistreatment from Soo-cheol’s family, Da-hyun must have lived a lonely life. Min-hyuk had never felt as frustrated as he did now for not being there for her during her childhood.
He felt uneasy, thinking Da-hyun might cry alone in her room until she falls asleep.
At times like this, he couldn’t comfort her, and it seemed like there was nothing he could do for her.
He couldn’t just stand by and watch for Da-hyun’s sake. He wanted to do something, to fight for her now that Chang-jung had revealed the truth to her.
Though he didn’t like fighting, if the opponent was Soo-cheol, it would be quite enjoyable. The corner of Min-hyuk’s mouth raised as he held a cup.
“Come to think of it, I don’t need to care at all now.”
He could show what he had been enduring until now, knowing that he was Da-hyun’s father.
“First, I should exclude Yusong from the project I’ll announce soon.”
Min-hyuk wished he had noticed Soo-cheol’s intention to add a spoon to the already set table. There was no need to watch and wait anymore.
He had to show how a locomotive runs wild.

Three years for Yusong. At most, it would collapse within ten years.
Min-hyuk was confident. He had illegal surveillance files and Yusong’s slush fund irregularities in his hands.

“I’ve started. Will arrive within an hour.”
Checking Kim Yoon-hee’s text, Min-hyuk was not at all pleased.
Min-hyuk stared silently at the clear liquid in the cup. How should he clean it if it gets dirty?
Once stained, it would be challenging to return to its original color. Instead, what if he changed that color to a different one?
Min-hyuk decided to destroy Soo-cheol without hesitation, regardless of how Da-hyun thought of him.
At that moment, he recalled the text from Kim Yoon-hee, saying she was coming. If black suited her in the past, it didn’t now.

Seeing her apologize to Da-hyun and not hesitate to sacrifice herself for her child, she was now red. In a positive sense, it was passion.
Since Kim Yoon-hee knew what unpleasant things Soo-cheol had done, it was easiest to approach Soo-cheol.
Although colors are opposites, when mixed, they blend quite well.
“This time, you quietly have to be used.”
My Step-brother Is Obsessed With Me (Female-dominant)
A gentle female protagonist vs pitiful in the early stage, and a sick male protagonist in the later stage
Cheng Songer transmigrated into the body of a vicious cannon fodder female supporting character with the same name as her in a female-dominant novel.
In the original story, the cannon fodder female supporting character was inhumane, committing domestic violence, gambling excessively, being lustful, and even wanting to sell her stepbrother to a brothel for money.
As luck would have it, she just happened to transmigrate at this time.
Seeing Cheng Qingzhi biting his lip, enduring the tears in his eyes, looking pitiful, her heart softened.
She stuffed the money back into the Madam’s hand and reached out to him.
“Brother, come home with me.”
