Thump. Thump.
Jae In was caught off guard by Do Hyuk’s sudden appearance.
“TTeam Leader, what brings you here?”
“Seo Team Leader, what brings you here? And me, the team leader.”
“…We’re having a meal. As you can see.”
“You seemed so happy. Were you in the middle of an interesting conversation?”
Do Hyuk’s eyes, pressing with every word, were cold.
Jae In hadn’t done anything wrong, but she suddenly felt uneasy.
“Is he suspecting that I had some secret communication with the team leader? He seems firmly misunderstood from the look in his eyes. What should I do?”
“Ah, it was nothing. Just idle chatter, you know. Right, senior?”
In that instant, seeing the flustered expression on Min Woo’s face, Jae In realized her mistake.
Having called the proposal talk idle chatter, Min Woo, who didn’t know the situation, might have felt upset.
“Oh no, that wasn’t my intention. What if he misunderstands?”
Jae In hurriedly tried to salvage the situation.
“No, it’s not like that… It was a very important conversation. Haha.”
“A very important conversation?”
Do Hyuk pondered her words.
“Goodness!”
Jae In broke out in a cold sweat.
“So… It wasn’t exactly idle chatter, but it wasn’t something very important either.”
“Not something very important?”
Do Hyuk’s eyebrows twitched.
It seemed like she had created an even bigger misunderstanding.
An irreparable situation.
Jae In couldn’t find any more words to dig herself out and could only blink helplessly.
Since Min Woo hadn’t announced the news of their marriage at the company yet, she couldn’t be the one to bring it up.
“Senior Min Woo, help me!”
With an expression as if carving the letters ‘SOS’ on a deserted island beach, Jae In sent a pleading gaze to Min Woo.
With that, as if understanding the meaning perfectly, Min Woo smiled and spoke.
“Team Leader Cha, I invited Seo Team Leader to have a meal together. We’ve been close since college.”
“So you’ve been close for a long time.”
Do Hyuk put on a businesslike smile.
“Yes. Jae In used to follow me around calling me ‘oppa’ when she was a freshman. It feels like just yesterday, but it’s already been eight years. She was really cute back then, haha.”
“Calling you ‘oppa’ since freshman year, she must have been really adorable.”
A vertical line appeared between Do Hyuk’s brows as he muttered.
Jae In, who was observing Do Hyuk’s complexion, sensed that something was off in the atmosphere.
Something seems strange.
“Jae In is my most cherished junior. So, Team Leader Cha, I kindly ask you to take care of our Jae In.”
“Of course. She’s our most cherished junior, our Jae In.”
As Do Hyuk neatly summarized the main points and played along, Min Woo smiled with a satisfied expression, as if he had completed his task.
And as Jae In watched their conversation, she realized a significant issue.
I understand that Min Woo emphasized our friendship and asked him to take care of me in a subtle way.
However.
Being close to Min Woo, who is now the newly appointed executive, in the current situation only raised suspicions.
Jae In glanced at Do Hyuk with a worried heart, and their eyes met.
And then, she knew.
A storm brewing within his seemingly indifferent pupils.
Ah. It seems like today won’t be a smooth day either.
Jae In took a deep breath and forcefully scooped a spoonful of rice into her mouth.
During difficult times, it’s important to eat solidly.
At that time, when Jae In was personally experiencing whether the rice was going into her nose or her mouth.
Do Hyuk’s cell phone rang.
“I understand. I’ll go right away.”
Do Hyuk answered the call and stood up from his seat. Then he bid farewell to Jae In and Min Woo with a stern face.
“I have something to attend to, so I should go first. Well then.”
“Team Leader, it’s alri…”
Before Jae In could finish her sentence, Do Hyuk quickly moved away with fast steps.
What could have happened that is not good?
Jae In was concerned about the last tone of Do Hyuk’s voice, which sank heavily in her heart.
Hanse Hospital VIP Suite.
In the middle of the spacious room that resembled a luxury hotel suite, an elderly man with white hair lay weakly with his eyes closed.
It was Cha Dae San, the chairman of Daesan Group and Do Hyuk’s grandfather.
As Do Hyuk entered the room, Seong Joon approached Chairman Cha and spoke quietly.
“Chairman, Master Do Hyuk has arrived.”
“Hmm… Do Hyuk…?”
“Yes. Then I’ll leave for a moment. Please have a comfortable conversation.”
“Okay…”
As Seong Joon went out, Chairman Cha, who opened his eyes with a sigh, gestured for Do Hyuk to come closer.
Do Hyuk sat on the chair next to the bed and spoke.
“Grandfather, how are you feeling?”
“I was trying to get up and suddenly lost consciousness. Now I’m fine, so don’t worry too much.”
“…”
“As long as you’re doing well, that’s all that matters to me. With that, I would have no regrets even if I went to the other world.”
When Chairman Cha spoke with a weak voice, Do Hyuk’s brows furrowed as he watched him.
“So, Do Hyuk, you should…”
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?”
