“Really… is that okay…?”
Her father’s painting.
Normally, Autumn would have adamantly refused, but this time, she quickly asked back.
Shin Mincheol readily answered.
“Of course. Anytime.”
Autumn’s face bloomed with a fresh smile as if she had already seen . Observing her bright smile, Shin Mincheol widened his eyes, then burst into laughter.
“Looking at Autumn, she’s not only good at painting, but also a very pretty lady.”
“Ne…? Ah, th-thank you, Chairman.”
Caught off guard by the unexpected compliment, Autumn didn’t know how to react, while Shin Mincheol continued speaking on his own.
“I’d like to introduce her to my grandson.”
Then, he suddenly started praising his grandson.
“Of course, my grandson is quite a catch. Not just because he’s my grandson, but he’s really a good kid.”
The conversation took a detour, but Shin Mincheol seemed keen on keeping his promise, making this suggestion to Baek Ho.
“Since you’ve invited me for dinner today, next time, you should come to our house. Autumn can come to see the painting, and Chairman, you can have a drink with me like today.”
“Hehe, that wasn’t my intention for inviting you.”
“It’s good to visit each other. My wife is an excellent cook. I’d like to treat you sometime.”
“Oh, really?”
The meeting was almost set.
After that, business talks, discussions about paintings, and stories about being a fan of Yun Daeho while tipsy continued until Shin Mincheol’s face was red with alcohol. Only after much drinking did the meal finally come to an end.
He almost leaned on his driver as he left the main house. Autumn thanked him with a bow, expressing her gratitude for his drunken state.
Baek Ho then approached Autumn. She quickly composed her expression and faced him.
He asked her in a generous voice.
“So, you entered the gallery?”
“Yes, Chairman.”
“Good job. Keep working hard like you are now.”
“Yes, I will.”
He was as if nothing had happened.
A few days later, Shin Mincheol quickly arranged the promised meeting. So, the dinner was set soon.
Autumn accompanied Baek Ho to the Shin family’s mansion.
It was her father’s painting she was about to see after almost a decade.
Her heart beat faster than usual in anticipation.
Arriving at the entrance of Shin Mincheol’s mansion, they were warmly welcomed by Shin Mincheol and his wife.
“Welcome, Chairman Han, Autumn, right? My husband told me about you. Please, come in, Autumn.”
“Thank you.”
Guided kindly by the couple, Autumn entered the mansion.
Shin Mincheol’s house was vast. A long corridor led to the living room, lined with numerous paintings.
Among them was her father’s work.
Autumn carefully examined each painting, not to miss her father’s. Then, she chuckled.
“…There it is. .”
How could she miss her father’s painting?
hung next to , drawn by Autumn. As if they were always meant to be together.
Stepping closer to the painting, Autumn’s eyes soon drooped sadly.
How long had it been since she last saw her father’s work…?
The sight of her father painting those roses and his large hands wielding the brush vividly came back to Autumn. She had watched the entire process of that painting’s creation with delight, as it was a collaboration with her father.
She longed to touch the painting, but restrained herself, knowing it wasn’t hers to touch. Withdrawing her hand, Autumn stood at a distance, merely observing.
“Our father’s painting is still the same.”
Despite the passing years, the painting’s true value hadn’t faded, thanks to careful preservation. The vibrant reds of the roses, the lively green vines, and the weathered gray wall – all were as she remembered from her childhood.
Lost in the painting, Autumn was unaware of time passing until Shin Mincheol spoke, suggesting they leave her alone for a while. He led Chairman Han to the dining room.
Seizing the moment as Shin Mincheol and Chairman Han entered the dining room, Autumn expressed her gratitude.
“Thank you, Chairman.”
“Don’t worry. Take your time to look around. We won’t mind.”
“Thank you, really.”
Autumn turned her gaze back to the painting once they had gone.
“I miss you, Dad.”
Just looking at the painting brought back vivid memories of that day.
Then, a sudden longing surged within her.
“I wish I had it.”
She thought viewing would be enough, but that seemed like a fleeting thought. If only she had the means, she would have asked Chairman Shin to let her take the painting home…
Trying to hold back tears, Autumn bit her lower lip.
After a while, she heard someone approaching. Startled, Autumn turned to find a man who had just appeared in the long corridor. He too seemed surprised.
The man hesitated, then approached Autumn.
Taken aback by his closeness, Autumn stiffened, but the man only looked at the painting.
Relieved, she finally exhaled.
“He must have been curious about the painting.”
The man then asked, “Who are you? I didn’t hear we had guests today.”
