“Your relationship with Sebastian. Shouldn’t your husband know about it?”
“There’s no need for Mr. Baek Si Heon to know false information.”
Ye Seul thought there was no way Si Heon would believe such baseless words.
Upon seeing Si Heon’s cold gaze, her faith wavered.
Could he believe that she had become a chocolatiere because she was involved with Sebastian in such a way?
The person who had once praised Chloe’s chocolates….
“Mr. Si Heon. You don’t believe what I just said, do you?”
Ye Seul was taken aback by the situation where Si Heon didn’t even force a fake smile.
“It’s not true.”
Ye Seul tried to explain hurriedly.
“Ye Seul.”
Si Heon’s voice was chillingly cold.
“Whatever your relationship is with Sebastian, it doesn’t matter.”
Ye Seul felt oppressed by Si Heon’s words, as if her chest was being crushed.
It sounded like it didn’t matter what Ye Seul did since they were going to divorce anyway.
Considering it as a business relationship, Ye Seul should also not care how Si Heon thought of her.
Yet she wanted to justify herself and wanted him to listen more.
“Mr. Si Heon……”
Ye Seul swallowed her words as she licked her lips.
She had no idea what to say to Si Heon to explain herself.
“Sebastian had no reason to reject when young girls were throwing themselves at him. Did you hide your marriage from Sebastian too? Or did he know and still played around?”
Juliet babbled on as if seizing the opportunity from the cold air flowing between the two.
“Juliet. I also find it hard to bear when you insult Sebastian.”
Ye Seul’s voice trembled and her shoulders tensed up.
“You also know well what kind of person Sebastian is since you worked with him.”
Ye Seul was angry at Sebastian being treated like a low person.
There was a time when Ye Seul had a crush on Sebastian, but Sebastian had drawn a line and rejected her.
Ye Seul now knew for sure that what she felt was closer to admiration than love.
“Look. Seeing how you defend Sebastian, you can tell how deep your relationship is.”
Juliet clung to Si Heon’s side and stroked his arm with her palm while wearing a smug face.
“Your wife is a person who can commit an immoral act without any remorse. It’s Mr. Baek Si Heon who would regret being dumped by such a woman. Don’t regret not choosing me then.”
Si Heon removed Juliet’s hand from his arm.
“Ms. Juliet.”
Si Heon called Juliet with his usual warm voice.
Juliet looked at Si Heon with hopeful eyes.
“Yes, Mr. Si Heon.”
“Please go now. I really hope you’ll bring a business discussion next time.”
“Mr. Si Heon!”
Juliet called Si Heon’s name as if screaming at his reaction.
“I’m sorry, but this matter is a problem between us as a couple. I hope Mrs. Choi Moon Kyung would not interfere.”
“Ha… Mr. Baek Si Heon. You’ll regret this today.”
Juliet looked at Ye Seul’s pale expression, then picked up her bag.
The atmosphere was like walking on thin ice that seemed to break at any moment.
She had a good feeling.
“Mr. Baek Si Heon. See you next time.”
She smiled brightly as she turned to look at them before going out the door that Si Heon had opened for her.
“I’ll look forward to the divorce news then.”
With steps light in the assurance of her victory, Juliet headed towards the elevator.
In the meeting room, Si Heon and Ye Seul stood in silence.
Ye Seul felt a prickling sensation on her skin in the sharp air.
Feeling the need to break the long silence, Ye Seul moved her lips.
“Do you really believe Juliet’s words?”
Si Heon brushed his forehead and sighed.
“Miss Ye Seul.”
Ye Seul lifted her head and looked at Si Heon.
She nervously bit her lip.
She hadn’t dated a man in the past seven years.
For Ye Seul now, Sebastian was a familylike figure, a sturdy support, not a man.
Would Si Heon understand Ye Seul’s circumstances?
“Whether it’s true or not doesn’t matter. Miss Ye Seul’s abilities have been fully verified.”
Why won’t he say he trusts Ye Seul?
Although, how could Baek Si Heon trust Ye Seul when they’ve only met recently?
Even so, Ye Seul was only disappointed with Si Heon’s answer.
“I… don’t have that kind of relationship with Sebastian…”
Ye Seul moved closer to Si Heon.
She had a feeling that Si Heon would leave without hearing Ye Seul’s story to the end.
If he leaves, he leaves. Why did she want to make a pathetic excuse to Si Heon?
“It’s not an important story to me now.”
“Do you believe Juliet’s words?”
A wave of disappointment rushed over her.
Si Heon neither denied nor confirmed.
It seemed like he misunderstood her relationship with Sebastian.
“We’re really just priestly relations. For me who has no relatives in Paris, Sebastian was like family.”
Ye Seul was frustrated.
Si Heon looked down at Ye Seul with a downcast gaze.
Ye Seul bit her lip and avoided Si Heon’s gaze with teary eyes.
Her tightly clenched fist was trembling.
Si Heon found Ye Seul’s behavior curious.
Why was she so desperate to make excuses?
If that was acting, I thought it was a truly remarkable talent.
Had Si Heon not witnessed such a spectacle, he might have believed Ye Seul.
The conversation flowing out through the slightly opened door between Sebastian and Ye Seul affirmed their relationship.
‘My cat (Mon chat). I don’t want to let you go.’
‘……. It was so good…….’
Ye Seul’s voice, deeper inside than Sebastian’s, was heard intermittently.
Furthermore, because their conversation was in French, it was difficult to catch all of Ye Seul’s words.
‘……. You are my everything. ……. I love you.’
‘Your place is always here.’
Sebastian gently stroked Ye Seul’s head.
Si Heon thought it was nothing serious.
Yet, his feelings were rattled differently than when he knew she was his wife.
Considering the time of seven years, it could be a very possible event, yet he felt twisted inside.
What Juliette said would be a public fact within Cidu.
He had no intention to inquire about the nature of their relationship with Sebastian, so he kept his mouth shut.
Although fake, Si Heon was content with feeling as if he had a family, and he did not want to clash emotionally and break that.
“Miss Ye Seul. It’s alright now.”
Si Heon’s voice had softened.
Ye Seul did not need to reveal everything to him.
Just like he didn’t tell Ye Seul the real reason why he needed to maintain the marriage.
“Miss Ye Seul. I have no intention to divorce. I will faithfully execute the contract, and if a divorce happens, I will give what I promised, so please rest assured.”
“Do you trust me?”
Ye Seul’s chocolatecolored eyes sparkled with hope.
Was she worrying so much because of the rights to the factory site?
Was she worried about the business with Cidu for Sebastian?
Si Heon wanted to shake off the feeling of becoming a petty person.
“Let’s stop this conversation now.”
He should not have thought about it.
He felt nauseous. Si Heon turned his head away with a disgusting feeling.
