“Yeah, Young-jin.”
「Sister.」
It had been a while since she heard her younger brother’s voice, which still carried its usual cheerfulness. Da Jeong smiled lightly and sat in front of the dressing table.
“Why?”
「Sister, are you dating?」
“What? Why, why would you suddenly ask that?”
「The kids were saying today… they saw you in some really handsome guy’s car passing by the orphanage.」
“Oh, uh, that’s…….”
Da Jeong awkwardly rolled her eyes.
Ever since she decided to marry Tae Sang, she had thought about telling Young-jin about him. But it always felt awkward and embarrassing, so she kept postponing it.
Even though they grew up with no secrets between them, Da Jeong found herself feeling embarrassed.
「That man, he’s the one who bought the orphanage land, right?」
“Yeah…….”
「He must have done that to impress you, right?」
“Maybe…….”
「So, you knew him before that day, not just met him then?」
“Yeah…….”
Why did her brother have to be both musically talented and so sharp? Da Jeong answered slowly, like a caterpillar.
「Who is he?」
“That’s…….”
Now that her relationship with Tae Sang was real, it seemed like the perfect time to talk about it. A sudden thought lightened Da Jeong’s voice.
“A person I met at work.”
Da Jeong tried her best to make the term ‘Vice President’ sound as friendly as possible.
「Hmm, really?」
“Yeah. Really.”
「Sister.」
“Why?”
「Our school’s art festival is this Saturday.」
Young-jin’s school held an annual exhibition and concert called ‘Midsummer Art Festival.’ Fitting for Korea’s top arts high school, it was a dignified yet somewhat stuffy event.
“I know, I was planning to go. But why bring that up all of a sudden…”
Da Jeong’s gentle voice evaporated in an instant.
“No, you can’t. He’s busy.”
「Busy people don’t go on dates? I’ll wait.」
“Young-jin, hey, Han Young-jin!”
She called out her brother’s name repeatedly, but all she got in return was the cold sound of the call ending.
“Ah…….”
A long sigh escaped Da Jeong’s lips.
Introducing Tae Sang to Young-jin. It wasn’t impossible, but it made her feel uneasy.
They had just started dating, but was it okay to introduce him to her family? Would Tae Sang feel burdened?
Now that their relationship was real, everything from start to finish was a source of worry.
Da Jeong raised her head and stared blankly at the ceiling.
“Family…….”
Muttering the word, the heavy reality pressed on her heart.
Young-jin, still a carefree high school student, wanted to meet Tae Sang out of concern for her. What about Tae Sang’s family?
The chairman who dearly cherished Tae Sang, his only sibling.
Just thinking about their judgment if she didn’t meet their expectations drained her energy.
Da Jeong’s eyes drooped. Just then, her phone vibrated briefly in her hand.
Hoping Young-jin had changed his mind, she quickly glanced down.
‘Have you unpacked everything?’
It was a text from Tae Sang. How did he always manage to time it so well? Her previously downcast mood brightened instantly.
‘Yes. Just finished unpacking.’
‘Which room did you choose?’
Da Jeong quickly deleted her message saying it was the last room on the second floor.
“……What should I say.”
Before leaving, Tae Sang had told her to choose the biggest and best room.
Da Jeong said she would, but eventually chose the last room on the second floor. She wanted to leave the entire first floor for Tae Sang.
He always had to appear flawless at his workplace. His position as the vice president and the responsibilities weighing on his shoulders made him that way.
Da Jeong wanted to give him a space where he could breathe freely. A space entirely his own, away from others’ scrutiny.
She started typing again.
‘Chose the best room. Come see it in the evening.’
In the director’s office of the Hyosung Foundation.
Tae Sang stopped his work and picked up his phone. His eyes were unusually soft as he gazed at it, and the corners of his mouth curled up gently.
Secretary Kim was baffled by this new side of Tae Sang.
Just this morning, Tae Sang had been like a furious beast, snatching away car keys. Now, his face was melting, a sight unfamiliar to her.
And then.
‘Please come to the director’s office of the Hyosung Foundation immediately. Bring all the personnel records of the main office secretary too.’
He had been unreachable by phone when it was urgent, and now he suddenly contacts her for this.
Secretary Kim prepared the requested files and headed to the foundation office. When she arrived, Tae Sang was already buried in a mountain of documents, seemingly financial statements.
Was he planning an unexpected audit? It was unclear what he was looking for in these vast records.
“Secretary Kim.”
“Yes.”
At Tae Sang’s call, she straightened up immediately.
“I’ll need the foundation’s donation expenditure report for the second half of last year too.”
“I anticipated you might ask for it, so I’ve already prepared it.”
When the male lead is punished by carrying the female lead’s child and having periods like a woman
“I’ve given birth to two children for you, yet you still think about him.
Was I nothing but his substitute to you from beginning to end?”
