Dialing.
“Hello?”
“This is Choi Yugeon.”
“I’m really sorry, I’m so busy right now. I’ll call you back!”
“Hey!”
Beep beep beep beep.
“…This is definitely being stood up.”
Yugeon, frozen in disbelief, chuckled and put down his phone.
If she didn’t want to, she could have just said so. Why resort to such methods to reject someone?
This was the first time he was treated this way by a woman, but now he felt determined to see this busy doctor’s face.

“She’s so busy, huh… I should pay a visit.”
Let’s see how impressive this doctor is to make someone this restless before even meeting.
“Lawyer.”
After oversleeping, Youngja entered Jaemin’s room the moment she woke up.
“Our lawyer, weren’t you supposed to go to the office this afternoon?”
“Yes. I cleared my schedule today to register the marriage immediately after filing for divorce.”
“Our Rona must be so disappointed.”
“I need to get married quickly, she’s already 12 weeks pregnant.”
“That’s why I’ve been saying Rona is good for you. When you brought Heeju home, I really didn’t like it! Apart from being obedient and naive, what else is there to see in her? Since she came, your grandparents, then your father passed away, even the fortune-tellers always predict bad things! She’s just bad luck, you know?”
It had been four years since Jaemin married Heeju, and unfortunate events followed.

His elderly grandmother and grandfather passed away within five months of each other, and a year later, Jaemin’s father died of a heart attack.
The promised position at a major corporation’s legal team was snatched away by a junior, and then Youngja was diagnosed with early-stage thyroid cancer, frequently visiting the hospital.
“But, don’t you find her a bit strange? Her way of speaking, how she dresses, and even her attitude towards me, it’s all so different… How can someone change so much all at once?”
It definitely wasn’t the image of the wife I knew.
Jaemin suddenly remembered the day they had a big argument.
“Why are you doing this? What about me don’t you like that you suddenly want a divorce?”
“I’ve fallen out of love. Look at you. What’s there to be attracted to? Your baggy clothes, constantly seeking approval for everything, your timid personality, it’s all so boring and I hate it! So let’s just end this, please.”
On the day he deliberately picked on every little thing to hurt her for not accepting the divorce.
“…I’ll change. I’ll change for you. My clothes, my personality, everything you hate, I’ll try to change.”
Could it be that she took those words to heart and attempted a drastic transformation?
Ha, the effort is commendable, but how long can such an act last? Kim Heeju is Kim Heeju.

“Don’t worry about it. She’s just struggling because she doesn’t want the divorce.”
“It’s not like Heeju knows about your affair, right?”
“That’s impossible! She mustn’t find out, at least until the divorce is finalized!”
Jaemin widened his deep-set eyes and said emphatically, “Never!”
“Okay, that’s settled then! By the way, I’m changing the house’s passcode today, son.”
“That’s a good idea. Even though it’s tough, pack up her things and leave them outside the door, Mom.”
“What do you mean tough? It’s for welcoming our new family member. Just make sure to keep Lona stress-free, okay?”
“Got it, Mom!”
Changing the house passcode and putting her stuff out, what can she do?
Heeju, who’s not aggressive by nature, won’t last long in this pretense or useless act.

Annoying Kim Heeju needs to leave quickly so I can bring Lona home and be happy with our baby.
“Right, right, hurry to work, son, our lawyer Jaemin! Fighting!”
Receiving Youngja’s warm gaze, Jaemin grinned.
Chaewon just finished a skin reconstruction treatment for a burn patient and returned to her office.
It was 5 PM. After glancing at the wall clock, she picked up her phone.
She was calling the caregiver she had hastily hired yesterday.
“Yes, it’s me. How is my sister’s condition?”
Listening intently, Chaewon’s expression grew serious.
“She hasn’t woken up yet? What does the doctor say?”
Though the injuries were severe, it wasn’t to the extent that she couldn’t wake up by now.

The doctor had said there shouldn’t be any problems, but she was still not awake.
“Okay, I’ll be there soon after I get off work. Please take good care of her and call me immediately if she wakes up.”
Hanging up, Chaewon sighed and put down her phone.
“Is she unable to wake up, or too embarrassed to wake up?”
What had happened that was so difficult for Heeju with Noh Jaemin?
“…Heeju. Should I have tried to find you sooner? Would that have prevented all this?”
Her twin sister, who only appeared in a few frames of her childhood memories, had always been a curiosity, but she never had the courage to seek her out.
After her mother, Kyung-Ah, remarried James, Chaewon couldn’t bring up Heeju, and as she grew into an adult, unnecessary caution added with time just flew by.
At the knock on the door, Chaewon responded while taking off her surgical gown.
“Come in.”

The person who entered was Moon Seongmin, a dermatologist and co-founder of this hospital, as well as her friend.
“I’m here, I’m here. Brought you coffee!”
Picking up her doctor’s coat, Chaewon glanced at him and smiled.
“Thanks.”
“Did you move in okay?”
“Been too busy to unpack.”
Seongmin put the coffee on her desk and asked.
“Do you need help?”
“No, it’s fine. I’ll do it slowly.”
“Guess I won’t get to see your new place for the next five hundred years?”

“Houses are all the same anyway.”
“Wow. That place is different, not just anyone can afford to live there. Did your father find this one for you too?”
“Yes. I guess he’s worried about me living alone in Korea.”
Just then, Nurse Oh peeked her head in with a knock.
“Give me five minutes, I’ve just finished a procedure.”
“It’s not about that.”
Why are Nurse Oh’s usually narrow eyes opened so wide in shock?
Just then, the slightly ajar door swung open, and a man entered.
Chaewon’s hand, which was fastening her gown, froze the moment their eyes met.
“I’ll talk to you after you see your patient.”
Seongmin, who had been intently looking at the man, quietly said this to Chaewon before leaving.

Chaewon gazed, as if mesmerized, at the robust man standing in front of her.
Although she often saw celebrities due to her profession, this man, dressed in a well-tailored suit, exuding an air of luxury, was strikingly impressive compared to anyone she had seen before.
“Please, take a seat.”
As Chaewon gestured, the man approached and sat down.
Chaewon glanced at her computer, trying to figure out who this man was. If he’s here for even a minor procedure on his face, she was even ready to turn him away, a first in her practice.
“I’m Choi Yugeon.”
“Choi Yu-”
Realizing belatedly that this was the name of her blind date, Chaewon turned her head in surprise.
“…Who did you say you are?”

“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?”
