Chae Won zoomed in on the photo reflected in her phone, then returned it to normal.

“Why is there such a height difference?”

Even though she wore low-heeled sandals today, why does she look so small standing next to Choi Yoo Gun?

She thinks she’ll have to wear higher heels when meeting him to avoid lowering her self-esteem.

It was fortunate that her expression didn’t show clearly because of the darkness around.

Even at a glance, it’s a foolish expression.

Chae Won shifted her gaze to her hand holding the phone.

All five of these fingers fit inside his hand.

Warm as if wearing gloves and also…

Chae Won shook her head, trying hard to erase the strange sensation that wouldn’t go away.

Chae Won looked at Hee Joo, who was breathing evenly with her eyes closed.

“I told you, right? That I was in the drama club in middle school. So I’m much better at acting like that. Next time, I’ll link arms first. Today I wasn’t in good condition in many ways. That’s why I was surprised. I absolutely didn’t feel anything like butterflies or heart fluttering.”

At some point, she developed this habit of mumbling like this.

Thinking Hee Joo might hear something and regain consciousness.

Afraid it would be too scary if nothing could be seen and no sound could be heard.

Chae Won didn’t let silence settle in this space, at least.

“Elder sister, you knew, didn’t you? That Noh Jae Min was cheating.”

It seems he was planning to deceive completely and divorce easily, so that’s why you didn’t want to grant the divorce, right?

As much as I’d like to just let the trash live well together and divorce, you have to make all the choices, Hee Joo.

“We have to see Noh Jae Min regret, see the trash become trash. So elder sister, you must… open your eyes.”

Chae Won, who had been looking with desperate eyes contrary to her harsh voice, soon lowered her gaze to her phone.

First, I need to secure evidence.

I could request a company, but I hear that might not be legally accepted as accurate evidence.

“This is Choi Yoo Gun.”

Chae Won spoke with strong-willed eyes, holding the phone to her ear.

“I’ll decide the photo location for tomorrow.”

Impressive driving skills.

Choi Yoo Gun, I acknowledge your driving skills.

It would be a shame to waste those driving skills, so I’ll specially select you.

“Let’s meet at the apartment cafe lounge at 8 AM tomorrow.”

It’s not necessarily because it might be difficult to drive and collect evidence simultaneously.

Best driver Choi Yoo Gun.

That sense of speed that seemed like a violation but wasn’t, that passion and golden timing that never misses.

May your bold handling shine once more tomorrow.

The next day.

Ro Na called a detective agency she had selected after searching all night.

Confidentiality, former police, swift action, quick and accurate.

The reason she chose this agency among many promising various things was because she liked the “swift action” written in their introduction.

“Yes. He’s staying out now, so I’d like to know where he is and what he’s doing. Especially if there’s a man he’s hanging out with, that would be even better…”

Just a little while ago, she was hesitant to make such a call.

What if they know I’m a school teacher and threaten me by questioning an educator’s qualifications?

Wondering if these people are really trustworthy…

“Is it possible to arrange a man?”

But with the active and kind response, Ro Na gripped her phone more tightly, gaining trust.

She wanted to quickly shake off Kim Hee Joo by somehow encouraging or threatening divorce, even if it meant creating a man if there wasn’t one close by.

“Ah, that’s difficult, yes.”

Should I have called the agency that said anything was possible?

With a lowered voice, the consultant emphasized speed, saying they would handle it quickly if entrusted.

After pondering for a while, Ro Na said with a determined expression.

“For now, please take pictures of everything she does, her every move. Her name is Kim Hee Joo, and I’ll send her photo right after we end the call. She comes home on weekends, so you can start following and investigating from that day.”

With a request to capture and send even the smallest details, Ro Na ended the call.

She accessed her phone gallery to find the photo of Hee Joo she was going to send to the agency.

There was a time when they had an after-party at Jae Min’s house after finishing a class reunion, and Hee Joo was captured with an awkward expression in a group photo taken then.

‘It’s okay, please stay seated. If you need anything else, just let me know.’

Kim Hee Joo, who wore baggy clothes and didn’t even wear lipstick, smiling innocently at everyone, so unadorned.

She who rarely went out except for grocery shopping and only did housework and cooking, really had amazing cooking skills.

At first, Jae Min said he liked her because she seemed so pure and delicate that it evoked a protective instinct, but now he says she’s quite boring.

“I’m sorry, but please divorce and get lost, Kim Hee Joo. I really have no choice now that a child is coming.”

Ro Na, who had been looking at the photo while muttering, soon captured her face and sent the photo to the agency.

The ongoing meetings with Jae Min that started with a fire that couldn’t be extinguished after drinking.

She had resolved to break up several times, thinking she shouldn’t do this as an educator, but suddenly a baby was conceived.

As a fellow woman, she feels sorry, but now she decided to let go of that sorry feeling, thinking only of the baby.

“Honey, let’s meet a little earlier today.”

Ro Na called Jae Min.

− Is this Ro Na? Jae Min is taking a shower right now.

At Young Ja’s voice, Ro Na straightened her body.

“Ah, I see. Mother, are you doing well?”

− Of course. Ah. We need to send that Hee Joo away and bring in our grandchild quickly.

With such a benevolent mother-in-law’s support, I should quickly marry the caring Jae Min and live happily with our little bean.

“I know you’re working hard. I’m trusting and waiting for Jae Min.”

Happiness is right before my eyes.

If only Kim Hee Joo would agree to divorce.

Chae Won entered the cafe lounge inside the apartment complex.

As befitting a high-end apartment, it was spacious and pleasant with luxurious interior decorations.

After surveying the people seated, Chae Won turned her body towards the corner where the elevator was located.

The elevator’s exterior surface reflected like a mirror, perfect for checking one’s appearance.

“Whew.”

Chae Won, who let out a long breath, checked her appearance in sportswear that was good for activity, top and bottom.

She slightly lowered the zipper of her black top and bottom with a cap, revealing a white round-neck t-shirt to avoid looking too stuffy.

She turns slightly to check her back view.

“Even covered like this, it’s still an apple hip…”

Although her attractive back view was very concerning, this was still perfect disguise.

The scarf she brought just in case, Chae Won slowly wrapped it around her neck with a solemn expression.

Dressed all in black for camouflage, with this scarf covering her face, neither Noh Jae Min nor anyone else would ever recognize her.

No one.

“Ms. Kim Chae Won.”

Chae Won, who was pressing her cap down deeply, turned her head with a start.

“You said to meet at the cafe lounge, what are you doing here?”

The one who approached closely was Choi Yoo Gun.

Chae Won quietly asked, maintaining her solemn expression.

“How on earth did you know it was me?”

“It’s obviously Ms. Kim Chae Won. This pink scarf also stands out a bit.”

After pondering for a while, Chae Won quietly unwrapped the scarf around her neck.

“I brought it thinking of disguise, but I was just about to take it off because I thought it didn’t match my style today either.”

She was someone who could never give up on style at any moment.

Yoo Gun looked at her appearance with binoculars over stylish sportswear with a puzzled expression.

“Wasn’t it to take pictures of exercising?”

“That’s not wrong. The characteristic of today is that we’re going a bit far.”

Yoo Gun tilted his head slightly, unable to understand what Chae Won was saying.

“But Choi Yoo Gun, you stand out too much. I told you to dress plainly!”

Chae Won frowned disapprovingly as she scanned Yoo Gun’s sportswear outfit.

A perfect figure as if about to shoot a sportswear pictorial in this situation that required disguise.

This was certainly not a moment that needed a handsome face and golden ratio body.

Chae Won sighed as if there was no help for it and said:

“My principle is to live as beautifully and prettily as possible, even if just for one more day. Like me, who ends up showing despite trying to be ordinary, it seems Choi Yoo Gun also has the same principle as me.”

Yoo Gun let out a low breath at the sight of Chae Won being self-conscious alone when no one was looking.

It seems she’s in bad condition from staying up all night nursing Hee Joo.

Maybe the cult religion she said she believes in is real.

“Ms. Kim Chae Won looks in very bad condition, if you’re tired we can take pictures in the evening, so go in and get some sleep.”

“It’s true that I’m sleepy, but now is not the time to be sleeping.”

As Yoo Gun finally closed his lips and stood askew, Chae Won pulled out the black cap she had prepared.

“Don’t misunderstand, it may be exactly the same as my cap, but it’s not a couple cap.”

It’s just a disguise. And Choi Yoo Gun needs to be covered a bit.

She mumbled as she stood on tiptoe to put the cap on Yoo Gun’s head.

“Huh…?”

This isn’t right.

She put it on to cover, but in the end even wearing a cap shines.

It even matches the sportswear he’s wearing quite well.

“Ha… This isn’t what I expected, but we have no choice due to time. For now, wear this mask. Let’s leave before it’s too late. We.”

Yoo Gun grabbed Chae Won, who was stepping forward with a solemn expression, and turned her back to her place.

He looked into Chae Won’s rounded eyes and asked.

“Where are we going and what are we doing? You need to explain.”

Chae Won’s eyes, which had been quietly staring, gradually curved prettily.

“We’re going to catch cheating husbands, no, bastards.”

“…Pardon?”

Chae Won spread her shoulders wide in a haughty posture with her arms crossed.

“Your driving skills yesterday were excellent, Choi Yoo Gun. Indeed, we are the best partners and I’m sure Choi Yoo Gun can do well today too, I believe. In Choi Yoo Gun.”

Yoo Gun put strength in one eyebrow.

Ah… What’s with this woman.

Chae Won gently pressed the edge of the cap she put on Yoo Gun and smiled.

“Fighting!”
