“No. You’re wrong, Taejun. If I had known, I would have uncovered that truth until it was reversed.”
In her deer-like eyes, an unknown firmness shone.
Only then did Taejun realize that his judgment was wrong.
He had completely forgotten. How possessive Baek Seorin was.
“You should have told me the truth. We’re a couple. We didn’t have a wedding, but legally, we are a legitimate couple. I married you because I wanted to live safely under your shadow. Of course, it’s true that your shares were necessary to protect the company, but that doesn’t mean I became weak to the point where I always needed Taejun’s protection.”
“…….”
“So share everything with me. From now on.”
In response to her firm voice, Taejun nodded.
“Sorry. I was too short-sighted. There won’t be such a thing happening again.”
“So, did Han Jiseon only tell you that? That our dad and mom weren’t in such a relationship?”
“No. She told me other things too.”
“What?”
At her question, Taejun swallowed his dry saliva.
Even thinking about it again, the truth was shocking.
But now, he thought she needed to know, so he reluctantly spoke.
“Mom didn’t commit suicide.”
“!”
“She was murdered.”
Meanwhile, at that moment, Minhyeong was expressing displeasure over a phone call with someone.
“No, hey. Does this make any sense? Suddenly saying you can’t deposit the remaining money? Saying you’ll only invest half? You promised, damn it!”
“Oh, hyung. I’m sorry. Actually, who carries that much money in cash these days? So I used some of the deposit money. But this time, my father found out, so the remaining amount became a bit difficult.”
“Ha, s**t. Are you kidding me now?”
Annoyed voices scratched Minhyeong’s eardrums.
He felt like swearing and shouting ‘What the hell!’ but he forcibly held back those words that were about to come out.
“You know it too, hyung. Our father is really scary.”
“Oh, that’s your problem! You know I have other investors, right? I only agreed because you insisted on doing it, and we took the risk because you wanted to invest that much money! We did it because you took on that risk!”
“I know. Hyung. So I’m really grateful.”
“Are you just going to be grateful with words every time? If a business-minded child breaks promises, or if they don’t keep financial promises, how do they survive in that bottom layer?”
Ha. A sigh of anger automatically leaked out. This was all because of Baek Seorin.
In the end, Seongwon succeeded in the bid for the Theme Hotel site, and as a result, he got involved with Chairman Cho.
And on top of that, learning that he embezzled the deposit money and invested it in a drama, Cho’s anger surpassed imagination.
It was a perfect plan, but he didn’t know where it went wrong.
How could Baek Seorin remain so unaffected even after seeing those pictures? Or what kind of proposal was Seongwon’s that made him invest so much money, and despite the fact that Parao’s proposal, which ate a bribe, never saw the light and was thrown into the trash, was something he couldn’t figure out.
Moreover, after the bid, her eyes that looked at him with a hint of pity in the building lobby still lingered in his memory.
Yes, everything was Baek Seorin’s fault.
If it weren’t for her, I would have been on the path of success by now.
Everything is your fault.
“Oh, forget it! Anyway, our drama will do well. The director, writer, and actors are all perfect. Except for Seo Jiwon. But if you’re not going to invest all that money, we have no reason to take Seo Jiwon with us.”
“Ah, hyung…….”
“Jiwon is out. That’s how it is.”
The call was disconnected. However, Minhyeong had no intention of reconnecting the call that had been cut off.
He knew better than anyone that it wouldn’t help to call back and explain, given the situation. Besides, he didn’t feel like making regretful remarks to someone just for Seo Jiwon.
But even though the call was disconnected, his anger didn’t subside.
He was so angry that he couldn’t breathe.
“Ugh! So annoying! Baek Seorin, seriously!”
His life had truly become a mess.
But he didn’t know.
His life, twisted like a twist bread, was not over yet but had just begun.
“So, when will you meet her?”
Having heard the whole story from Taejun, Serin calmly asked.
As she listened, her heart trembled with a shocking truth, but she suppressed it because Taejun, who was in front of her, seemed to be in more pain.
She vaguely thought it might not be suicide.
No, maybe there needed to be a valid reason for her not to accept his suicide.
But murdered.
At the shocking twist she couldn’t have imagined, Serin’s fingertips trembled.
“I tried to contact her, and she said she’d have time next week. I’ll go down and meet her then.”
“Shall I go with you?”
“No. I’ll go alone. Instead… I’ll come back and tell you everything.”
“Promise. I won’t… suffer alone from now on.”
“Absolutely.”
“And one more thing. Promise me you won’t leave me like this again.”
Despite knowing the reason why he had to leave, Serin had no choice but to extract this promise from him.
The time of patience she never wanted to experience again.
Waiting for him without even knowing English was more cruel than she had thought.
And she realized. Now, a life without Kang Taejun for Baek Seorin was unimaginable.
Fortunately, Taejun lightly kissed her lips and returned the answer she wanted.
“Don’t leave. Never again.”
Male lead first thought she played hard to get, only to realize she
really disliked him

At first he thought she was just using the trick of feigning indifference to attract his attention. Later, he learned that she truly despised him.
