The conclusion is the same anyway. Even if Da Jeong leaves me in the future, nothing changes now. My choice has always been Da Jeong.”

“Da Jeong.”
No matter how many times he called her name, it was never enough. The suppressed desires that hadn’t found release kept bubbling up and escaping his lips.
“Why do you keep calling me?”
“I feel anxious if I don’t.”
“…Am I the one making Tae Sang anxious?”
Her innocent eyes widened in surprise. Those eyes, brighter than jewels, seemed to have no concept of her own worth.
“Only when I’m by your side.”
“I’ve never thought that way before. I always believed that I was the one who made you anxious, Tae Sang, and that you would leave me at any moment…”
Suddenly, Tae Sang’s eyes contorted. He couldn’t bear the thought of Da Jeong’s heart being hurt in any way.
His gaze fixated on Da Jeong’s lips as if questioning her. Sensing his unspoken demand, Da Jeong cautiously spoke.
“…You chose me out of necessity, Tae Sang.”
Courage surged in her, as if she were falling deeply into his intense gaze. Da Jeong continued to speak with a clear voice.
“So, I always thought that making me anxious was my role. You were the kind of man who would leave me behind at any time…”
“…”
“Isn’t it funny? It’s not even a real marriage…”
A bitter smile tinged her lips with pain.
She had believed, even for a moment, that her thirst for his affection would be quenched if she stayed by his side, the thirst she felt for a man like Cha Tae Sang.
But it was a naive misconception.
Whenever she received his affectionate gaze, his sincerity became evident.
Because he needed a marriage partner, and she was the only woman who could hold his hand without any concern. She had hoped for him to look at her without any need or reason.
In fact, sometimes she had believed it so deeply. His gaze was too sweet, his worried words too warm.
But as always, the movie ended, and the delusion ended.
Da Jeong softly averted her gaze, waiting for the impending reality. It felt like the beautiful ice beneath her feet was slowly cracking.
“Da Jeong.”
“…”
Feeling that he had shattered her fleeting dream, she was slightly resentful. Da Jeong stubbornly lowered her head.
“Han Da Jeong.”
He whispered again, placing his hands on her small shoulders. As she lifted her head, she saw his fragile, almost precarious expression.
“As long as you allow it, I’ll always be by your side.”
“…”
“Our marriage… it will end when you want it to end. So you’ll never be left alone.”
For a moment, Da Jeong’s heart stopped.
“Really…?”
“Promise. So don’t look at the end from my side.”
“…”
If there was no end, could they continue to be together like this? The end that seemed so close suddenly felt distant.
At the same time, a small hope gently raised its head in her heart.
If our end keeps getting farther away, could it eventually disappear altogether?
It seemed like a small hope was gradually taking root. Da Jeong looked at him cautiously, keeping her true feelings hidden.
“I won’t do that anymore. I… while I’m by Vice President’s side, I won’t think about anything else.”
As if that was enough, Tae Sang’s lips curved with satisfaction.
After finishing a meal that felt like chewing on stones, Chairman Cha gave a long speech with refreshments.
Of course, the main characters of the speech were Tae Sang and Subin.
Why didn’t you teach Tae Sang about the company’s affairs earlier?
Can’t you be as diligent as Tae Sang?
Tae Sang, Tae Sang.
Subin, just before collapsing, managed to maintain a smiling face. After the dreadful dessert time ended, Myung Ok followed Subin to see him off.
“Subin, Cha Subin!”
Subin didn’t respond to Myung Ok’s call and continued walking.
“Hey, stop for a moment!”
Desperately grabbing Subin’s arm and shaking him, Myung Ok turned red. But what caught her eye was Subin’s reddened palm.
“You, you did this…”
Blood was seeping up again from the bandage that had been tightly wound around Subin’s wrist since the last time. In an instant, Myung Ok’s face contorted.
“You’ve been clenching your fist until it got to this point? Huh? You’re really something, Cha Subin.”
Myung Ok gently covered Subin’s hand with both of hers, trying to examine how serious it was, but he pulled his hand away abruptly.
“That’s enough. Give me Cha Tae Sang’s medical records.”
“…What? What are you going to do with that?”
Myung Ok’s face was suddenly filled with confusion at the unexpected statement.
“What am I going to do? I’m going to expose it.”
