“This is strange. I’m sure I left it here, but where did it go?”
No matter how hard she looked, the box was empty.
Recalling Seungyul’s visit during the day, Hyojin thought for a moment and then went to the guesthouse to search for Seungyul’s room.
“Seungyul, did you happen to see my necklace when you came into my room earlier?”
“Necklace? What does it look like?”
“Oh, it’s a silver necklace.”
In an instant, Hyojin remembered the swap and the necklace with her initials engraved on it, leaving her speechless.
“No, I need to look for it again.”
Suspecting someone was the worst thing. There’s no way our baby and Roy would have touched it.
“I’m sorry for bothering you. Goodnight.”
It’s the worst to suspect someone. There’s no way our baby and Roy would have touched it.

“Sorry for bothering you. Goodnight.”
Seungyul, who had been pretending to sleep in bed, got up as soon as Hyojin left the room and leaned close to the door, as if listening.
“Why? What’s wrong?”
The sound of Dad opening and coming out of the door as if he had been waiting was heard.
“It’s nothing, really.”
As expected. The teacher didn’t say anything to Dad, just as I expected. Like a fool.
The next afternoon,
After finishing a meeting with the Speaker of Parliament and businessmen from Singapore, Gyo-hwan returned to his office and received a note from his female secretary while she was away.
“Someone named Silvia asked for a call back when she returns. She said you would recognize her as Roy’s mother.”
“Silvia?”

What could Silvia want from me?
“Please connect me.”
“Yes.”
Gyo-hwan, who sent the female secretary out, answered the phone.
[Dash] Good morning, Gyo-hwan.She thanked me for taking care of Roy yesterday. She said Roy had a great time and sent a picture via his cell phone.
Gyo-hwan’s eyes narrowed when he saw the necklace.
This is the necklace I gave to Teacher Bong. Why does Silvia have this picture?
[Dash] Roy brought it yesterday. He said he received it as a gift from Seungyul.“A gift? From Seungyul?”
[Dash] Roy said he wanted it so much because it’s beautiful.ads
Even if Roy likes it a lot, it’s too much. How could he take the teacher’s necklace with initials and a date engraved on it…!
As Gyo-hwan thought about it, he clenched his phone.
Could it be that this kid figured it out when he saw it?
Gyo-hwan, who had initially intended to confess formally and felt puzzled, raised his eyebrows again.
But even if he saw it, he wouldn’t have given it to Roy, knowing it belongs to Teacher Bong.
“Silvia, I’m sorry, but I’ll have someone pick you up, so can you return that necklace? I’ll get Seungyul to give Roy a different gift. It’s a necklace with an owner.”
Confused, Gyo-hwan instructed the team leader to come and retrieve the necklace and then called Hyojin.
“Hello, Teacher.”
Hyojin, who had thoroughly searched under the bed after sending Seungyul to school, was now answering her phone from under the desk.
“Father, what are you doing at this hour…?”

“What? Could it be that my necklace was taken by Father?”
Startled, Hyojin raised her head and bumped it against the desk.
Ouch! Oh, it hurts.
Despite the pain in her head, she felt relieved, and her legs stretched out.
“Oh, I’m really relieved. I had no idea and searched for it for a while, thinking I had lost it.”
But why didn’t you say anything? If you lost it, you should have told me.
“Oh, I’m sorry. I left it in my room, and I thought I couldn’t find it.”
Hyojin apologized, thinking he was criticizing her for being careless.
What Gyo-hwan wanted to ask wasn’t about that.
“But where did you find my necklace?”

Right, where did Seungyul find it? Could it be in Teacher Bong’s room?
As he thought about it, Gyo-hwan realized he had asked a foolish question.
Even if Seungyul had taken it, Teacher Bong wouldn’t tell him about it.
It’s my fault for not noticing.
[Dash] I’ll be waiting in the study to discuss something with Teacher. I’ll go in early.“All right, I understand.”
It’s really strange. What’s going on?
Hyojin was curious about the reason, but Gyo-hwan hung up without waiting for a response.
That evening.
“Did you bring it?”
The chauffeur entered Seungyul’s room and handed over the necklace he had received from the department store.

“Is this it?”
Inside the box with the name of the same brand, there was the same design necklace that Seungyul had seen in Teacher Bong’s room yesterday.
Seungyul, who had checked if the department store had it in stock over the phone, asked to purchase it with the emergency credit card that Jihyun used.
The chauffeur, who had often bought gifts on behalf of Seungyul for Mrs. Bang or the family’s birthdays, didn’t particularly doubt Seungyul’s request to keep it a secret from Teacher.
“Yes, that’s right. Thank you.”
After the chauffeur left, Teacher’s voice was heard from outside the door of the Love House.
“Oh? Why is Mr. Chauffeur here?”
“Seungyul asked for a favor.”
“A favor? What’s that about?”
Before the conversation could finish, Seungyul abruptly opened the door and stepped out.
“What brings Teacher here?”

“Yeah, Dad said there’s something to discuss.”
“Dad?”
Seeing Seungyul, who had just entered the study, wrapped the necklace tightly in both hands, he came out as if things were going well.
Crossing the garden and entering Jihyun’s room with the secret code Teacher had given, Seungyul opened the box on the desk to put away the necklace he had brought.
But what’s this? There was already a necklace in the box.
And even the initials and the engraved date were the same.
Huh? Why is this here? I definitely gave it to Roy.
“Choi Seungyul.”
At the unexpected voice, Seungyul froze like ice, unable to even move his eyes.
“What are you doing here right now?”

Seeing the same necklace he was holding, Gyo-hwan approached with a face that seemed about to explode and looked down intimidatingly at Seungyul.
“Follow me.”

Xie Zhi and Fang Xianxing who had known each other for less than three days through a blind date sat in the same car in front of the civil affairs bureau. They had a disagreement and failed to get married.
Xie Zhi immediately took out his phone, slid through his contacts, and randomly selected the next marriage candidate.
The woman snatched his phone and hung up. Looking at his phone wallpaper, she awkwardly changed the subject: “An ancient painting, eh? It looks pretty good, it’s just that the person in the painting looks a bit like me.”
When he heard this, he sarcastically mocked her for being so delusional, completely unaware that, the person in front of him was the reincarnation of Wen Ru, the famous prime minister of Yuan Shun whom he most admired…
