Four days had passed, and fortunately, Da Hyun hadn’t mentioned the dream since.
Yet, Min Hyuk’s unease hadn’t disappeared.
He felt drained day by day, anxious about when Da Hyun would regain her memory.
At work, Min Hyuk fretted about her possibly remembering, frequently calling her to ease his nerves.
In Chairman Si Hoon’s office, Min Hyuk rubbed his eyes, sighing.
“Why do you look so bad? Are you okay?”
Si Hoon, noticing Min Hyuk’s condition, asked with concern.
Min Hyuk looked almost ghostly.
“Look okay to you?”
“No.”
Si Hoon decisively said he didn’t look okay.
“I haven’t slept well recently.”
Si Hoon observed Min Hyuk, whose complexion worsened since their last meeting. Regretting his call, Si Hoon sighed, “I shouldn’t have called him if I knew he would look so gloomy.”
“Why such a gloomy face over Chairman Han’s movements?”
“Chairman Han has made his move.”
“That’s expected. A man blinded by greed.”
Si Hoon knew it was bound to happen, given Su Cheol’s nature.
“You expected it, right?”
“Yes.”
But Si Hoon was puzzled. Min Hyuk anticipated it, so why did he look so defeated?
“It’s not that.”
“Right, you wouldn’t be down just because of Chairman Han.”
Maybe Da Hyun told him not to mess with her father. Even if estranged, she might have familial bonds, Si Hoon thought.
Min Hyuk could be shaken only by one person.
Da Hyun. The only person who could make Min Hyuk restless.
Si Hoon pondered, “Did you fight with Da Hyun?”
It couldn’t be anything else. Min Hyuk wouldn’t look so lifeless.
“No, how could I fight with her.”
Min Hyuk’s glance implied the question was absurd. Si Hoon clenched his teeth, knowing getting angry at Min Hyuk was pointless.
“Then what is it?”
Min Hyuk ran his fingers through his hair, reluctant to speak.
“I think Da Hyun might regain her memory.”
Hearing this, Si Hoon froze.
“She’s dreaming.”
“What kind of dream?”
“Dreams of us meeting in the past. She remembers it all.”
Min Hyuk looked up, bitter.
“…”
Si Hoon was at a loss for words. He had thought the memory would return eventually, but the timing was sooner than expected and disconcerting.
Da Hyun hadn’t regained her memory for two years, but ever since meeting Min Hyuk, her memory seemed to be rapidly returning. It appeared as if Min Hyuk was acting as a catalyst.
“You knew this could happen when you met Da Hyun again. You’ll have to deal with it. Or it’s not too late to tell her the truth now.”
“If I intended to tell her, I would have done it long ago.”
Min Hyuk laughed hollowly. Would things have been different if he had told her from the start? Now, it seemed pointless to ponder.
“It’s too late to tell Da Hyun now.”
“You don’t know? If you don’t tell her and she remembers, it could cause a bigger misunderstanding.”
“I’m not confident about it.”
Si Hoon, hearing Min Hyuk express a lack of confidence for the first time, couldn’t help but let out an incredulous laugh. Min Hyuk recalled seeing Da Hyun with Kim Chan two years ago.
Despite Da Hyun saying they were just friends, why didn’t it look like a mere friendship back then?
Why did she smile at another man when she said she liked him?
Da Hyun and Kim Chan appeared very close, even intimate enough for others to mistake them for a couple.
Min Hyuk clenched his eyes shut. He recalled seeing Kim Chan hugging Da Hyun in the past.
Quietly simmering with anger, Min Hyuk tried to calm himself. The past was the past.
Now, he was the one who had Da Hyun, and more importantly, she was carrying his child.
Feeling a headache, Min Hyuk frowned. Si Hoon shook his head in frustration.
“It’s frustrating. I don’t know what happened between you two.”
Si Hoon resolved never to invite Min Hyuk to the chairman’s office for a meal again. His mood had soured too.
“Hyung.”
“What now?”
Min Hyuk looked at the discontented Si Hoon and let out a bitter smile.
“Da Hyun’s pregnant.”
“Oh, yeah, Da Hyun’s pregnan… What?”
Si Hoon’s eyebrows shot up. Had he been holding a glass, it would have shattered from shock.
“What did you say?”
“She’s pregnant.”
Min Hyuk kindly repeated himself, knowing Si Hoon heard him.
“When did you find out?”
“It’s been a while.”
Si Hoon’s mouth hung open in disbelief.
“Why didn’t you say anything earlier? With your situation, a child? What will you do if Da Hyun regains her memory?”
Having a child was usually not problematic for couples, but it was different for Da Hyun and Min Hyuk. Their relationship still had unresolved issues.
“I don’t want advice from anyone, especially not you.”
Si Hoon felt slighted that Min Hyuk hadn’t confided in him, but put that aside.
“What will you do if she remembers everything? Your situation is already complicated.”
“I know. Who’s asking? I’m keeping my mouth shut.”
Si Hoon, who once stirred up trouble in his family before his marriage, wasn’t in a position to reprimand Min Hyuk.
Rubbing his eyes, Si Hoon let out a deep sigh.
“I shouldn’t have called you for lunch. It wasn’t the right time.”
Si Hoon regretted inviting Min Hyuk as he only brought surprising news.
“I wish I hadn’t listened.”

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
[Although it’s inappropriate, I also want a young and handsome boyfriend to have my child.]
