‘What’s going on all of a sudden?’

Startled by Juran’s unexpected contact, Sea was inexplicably anxious.

‘Could it be about Cha Min Woo’s engagement?’

The thought intensified her anxiety, and Sea bit her nails unconsciously.

“Really, everyone in this house must be crazy. How can they marry their son to another woman, not the one carrying their grandchild?”

The child in her womb was meant to be the heir of C&C.

She couldn’t give up this position.

‘But how do I protect it? What if I’m thrown out penniless? I’m the powerless one now, aren’t I?’

Numerous thoughts tangled in her head, amplifying Sea’s anxiety.

“You’re here, mother. How have you been? It’s quite hot outside, isn’t it?”

Putting aside her troubling thoughts, Sea greeted Juran with a feigned smile.

“Why ask about my wellbeing when you don’t mean it. Just do as you always do.”

Juran cut off Sea’s words with disinterest and sat in the living room.

“Let’s talk.”

“What are you looking at me so fiercely for, mother?”

Juran always looked at Sea with disfavor, but today her glare was particularly frightening.

“So, what are you planning to do?”

“What do you mean, mother?”

“You and the child in your womb! I’m talking about your child!”

“My child? This baby is Min Woo’s and my baby, not just mine.”

“We’ll see when it’s born! Fine, let’s say that’s true. But you don’t think you can marry Min Woo and enter our family, do you?”

“Of course, I think so. The father should take responsibility for the baby and its mother.”

“What nonsense are you spouting! Be sensible.”

“Why……. Are you planning to marry Min Woo to some other corporate daughter?”

Sea’s expression turned venomous in an instant, surprising Juran.

“Don’t pretend you don’t know. You arranged for Min Woo to meet another corporate heiress.”

“I don’t know how you found out. Yes, I’ll tell you since you know already. Min Woo is getting married soon. He’s very proactive this time, and they’re already close. Simply put, it’s a marriage Min Woo wants.”

“Ha! Cha Min Woo wants to marry that woman, leaving me, the mother of his child?”

Despite her words, Sea felt it too.

His heart had already drifted far from her.

Especially after meeting Chairman Cha Seung Jo, the way he looked at her like she was a bug, it seemed his heart had completely left.

What could she gain by holding onto someone who had left her in both heart and body?

‘I need to think cleverly to avoid loss…….’

As Sea pondered what was best for her, Juran, unable to wait any longer, spoke up.

“Sea, you like money, right? I’m not just telling you to leave.”

At her words, Sea’s head shot up.

‘As expected, she reacts to that. Yes……. it’s money for her.’

With a triumphant smile inside, she confidently stated the amount.

An amount that had significantly increased compared to a few years ago.
“You must need money. I’ll give you 1 billion won.”

But surprisingly, Sea showed no reaction to these words.

Juran’s mouth went dry seeing Sea not take the bait, but she continued as if it didn’t bother her.

“To be frank, you… you’re the main reason for Min Woo’s marital issues, and you’re not even in a good relationship with him now. You’re not even legally married. In simple terms, you two might have lived together because you liked each other, but you were just an ordinary couple, a common relationship.”

Juran hastened her words, needing to persuade Sea.

“Even if you try to ruin Min Woo’s upcoming marriage, you won’t be able to. We have more than you. So think about it. Do you want to be thrown out? Or would you prefer to leave with some money you like?”

“What about the baby?”

“The baby? It’s best if the mother raises the child. But if you want, we can take the child later.”

‘Ha! So, you mean to give me a pittance and take the child away?’

The more she thought about it, the more absurd it seemed, and Sea’s lips tightened.

“Mother, you’re undervaluing your son and grandchild. 1 billion won? It should be at least 5 billion won. And I will raise the child, so don’t even dream about it. I won’t let our child be raised by someone else’s hand.”

Having the only link to Min Woo, the child, was crucial for possibly reconnecting with him later.

But other thoughts began to creep into Sea’s mind.

It wasn’t just about the money, but his attitude of denying her existence infuriated her.

Even couples who dated for a few months meet in person to talk when breaking up, but he was hiding behind his mother now.

As if she wasn’t even worth meeting.

‘Are you trying to treat me worse than a piece of trash on the street? How do I fill this unjust feeling? Huh? Cha Min Woo. I feel so wronged?’

[Is Saturday morning okay for you?] [Yes, that should be fine.] [Then let’s meet at 10 AM. I’ll send you the location in a message.] [Understood. I look forward to a good response.]

After arranging a meeting with Kim Ji Won via messages, Ji Yeon briefly looked up at the sky.
