Taehoon gently comforted her by patting her back as she cried.
However, there was another person listening to that mournful cry.
On a rare weekend without golf appointments, Chairman Baek, feeling a bit suffocated, got in his car and unconsciously ended up visiting Chairman Baek’s resting place.
The timing was right, and it wasn’t too far away, so he easily made the trip without much thought.
There could be no lingering attachment to someone who had passed away, but still, in times like these when he felt frustrated, the only person he could really open up to was Chairman Baek, his lifelong confidant.
Whether it was good news or bad, they had always been there for each other.
They fought a lot and had moments of resentment in the past, but still, Chairman Baek was special because he was the only confidant left in the world.
However, it was at the very spot where he had parked his car that Chairman Baek came face to face with Seo Rin’s crying.
“…Seo Rin?”
It was undoubtedly Seo Rin. And the sleek figure beside her was unmistakably James Kang.
Chairman Baek, who had never imagined that Seo Rin would come to visit Chairman Baek with James Kang like this, furrowed his brow in an instant.
In their lifetime, they hadn’t been particularly close as mother and daughter-in-law. Seo Rin didn’t even shed a single tear at the funeral.
It wasn’t surprising, as there had been no affection between them; hence, there could be no sorrow.
But this crying… it resonated in his heart.
“Why are you…”
He couldn’t understand why she was crying so bitterly.
Was it guilt? Or perhaps regret?
It didn’t matter which one it was. She had no right to cry.
As someone who had watched Chairman Baek fret and worry about Seo Rin all his life, he couldn’t tolerate either side.
“[Dash] Are you saying you’ll wrap up the investigation as an accident? That’s unbelievable. Moreover, that wasn’t even the route our sister-in-law usually took! So, please, conduct a more thorough investigation!”
In the wake of the sudden deaths in the family, Chairman Baek, who was left distraught, personally took charge of handling everything. He even voiced harsh objections to the detective who wanted to quickly conclude the investigation. However, the response he received from the detective was quite shocking.
“[Dash] The second daughter of this house wanted to go that way. Well… she said she wanted to see the flowers. So, on that day, as an exception, she went that way. Now, does that answer your questions?”
Seo Rin was the culprit behind all the incidents.
The happiest family in the world had crumbled like that.
So, you don’t have the right to cry.
Because all of this misfortune began with you.
Chairman Baek turned away from Seo Rin’s sorrowful sobbing. The car left Sunsan and entered the highway, but her crying still clung to his ears.
It felt like his already stifled and blocked chest was tightening even more.
But Seo Rin, unaware that Chairman Baek had come like this, had shed all the sorrow and guilt she had been carrying for so long as tears.
The sobbing that made anyone who heard it want to cry together seeped into the clear air and rose to the sky.
“Hehehe… Dad.”
Why did I only realize it now? The fact that you loved me so deeply.
I wanted to turn back time.
So, if I could go back to the moment when my father was alive, I wanted to say it then.
I, too, loved you… deeply.
Male lead reborn without memories — but he still falls for her.
The person he finds displeasing in this life turns out to be his cherished wife-master in previous life…
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…
