“From now on… I need to sincerely apologize to you. All your misfortunes are directly caused by me…”
Unexpectedly, at these words, Serin’s black pupils shook slightly.
Madam Son nodded, as if understanding her turmoil.
“Yeah. You probably can’t understand. I couldn’t have anticipated it either until I saw the news.”
“I… I mean…”
Stammering, Madam Son reached out her hand towards her. Then, with the hand marked by the traces of time, she warmly held Serin’s hand.
“Listen firmly to what I’m about to say.”
“…”
“The connection between your father and me… Have I ever mentioned it before?”
“Yes. I remember. You said that our father saved you.”
“Right. That’s true. If your father hadn’t intervened that day, I probably wouldn’t be here.”
Recalling that day, a moist light filled Madam Son’s wise eyes. Then, as if genuinely sorry, her voice trembled.
“That day… That day is when everything began.”
For a moment, Serin lost her words. She didn’t need Madam Son to say it; she could guess the story.
She had to catch her breath for a while.
When she had calmed down a bit, Serin asked Madam Son.
“Then… Does that mean Chairman Jo was the one your father stopped that day? But it doesn’t make sense. My father, he didn’t recognize Chairman Jo at all.”
“No, it wasn’t Chairman Jo. That damn guy never revealed his identity from the beginning to the end. But I know for sure who the Taedong Construction CEO was. At that time, it was a different company, but he ordered his employees, who were in a difficult situation, to stab me. After that incident, he pretended to close the company and then established Taedong Construction. I’ve been watching him ever since. Until he died in an accident. Back then, I thought that scoundrel was the culprit.”
“…”
“I was foolish. From the beginning, there was someone else behind the scenes.”
As if unable to overcome the resentment, Madam Son’s breathing became somewhat rough.
“After seeing the news this time, I finally realized. The guy I chased to the point of life and death turned out to be nothing more than a puppet of Chairman Jo.”
“Then… If our father stopped the accident at that time, is that the only reason for that revenge?”
Serin couldn’t continue her words, but Madam Son deeply nodded.
“That’s right. Because when Chosun Construction collapsed due to me, he, who had legally established his first company, was in a difficult situation. Then, because of me, he ordered someone to stab me. Thanks to that, the company went bankrupt. He had to come back a long way to create the present Haeyang Shipping. That made him angry. That gangster spirit couldn’t be suppressed. You can’t deceive your origin.”
With a firm affirmation, tears finally welled up in Serin’s eyes. The question that had been deeply buried in her heart was now answered.
Baek, who had always shown kindness to others, was the chairman. However, it was unbelievable that such kindness could turn into such unbearable pain and come back.
“After seeing the news, you were the first person that came to my mind. I’m sorry… I’m so sorry.”
“…”
“If I had died that day, your life wouldn’t have become so twisted. I’ve made your future, which was supposed to be bright, a lifetime of pain. Just for a few more decades of life. Just to see you like this.”
Eventually, Madam Son burst into tears.
She couldn’t bear to look at Serin’s face because she was too sorry, to the point where her chest hurt.
All the curses originated from that day.
The person who should have died didn’t die, and instead, that anger flew and struck the wrong person. Moreover, it happened to those good-natured people.
Since encountering the news, Madam Son couldn’t sleep. Moreover, with Chairman Jo’s escape, her anger didn’t subside, making her unable to do anything, and her daily life became paralyzed.
Today, Madam Son, who had barely managed to get up from her seat, spoke after harboring harsh feelings.
However, her chest felt tight, and she couldn’t hold back tears.
“I’m sorry. I know that there’s no way to compensate for your life with any words. Still… still, I’m so, so sorry. Huhuhuk.”
Serin, who must have suffered the most from that accident, was so pitiful that she couldn’t even breathe. But instead of shedding the tears that were flowing, Serin silently embraced and comforted crying Madam Son.
“No, Madam, you haven’t done anything wrong. Chairman Jo is the one who committed the crime. So… you don’t have to feel sorry anymore.”
Her words touched the heart.
And the more she was touched, the greater the anger towards Chairman Jo grew.
“There’s nothing I can do for you. But there’s one thing I can promise.”
“…”
“If the police can’t find that bastard, I’ll find him. I will find him and make him pay for his sins. So don’t worry. Chairman Jo, that bastard, won’t be able to live and breathe safely.”
In response to Madam Son’s words, Serin nodded her head slightly.
Meanwhile, at that moment, Minhyung, who had just finished showering and was drying his hair, came out of the bathroom.
Male lead is reincarnated to save his wife
I’ve also read this one twice already. The female lead is kinda soft and gets embarrassed easily—not really my type, but the plot is definitely worth reading. Hurry up and read it, y’all!
Intro
When Shen Yuan encountered Su Jin again in his previous life, she had already become the Prime Minister of the current dynasty. As for him, the former top young master of the capital, he had long since fallen into the abyss, becoming a singer on a pleasure boat.
After a song ended, he was redeemed and sent to the Su Residence.
Su Jin respected and cherished him, gave him a roof over his head, and bestowed him with warmth. Shen Yuan fell deeper and deeper, but before he could express his feelings, Su Jin passed away.
Shen Yuan died to follow her in death, but instead, he returned to when he was fifteen years old.
At that time, he was not yet engaged, and Su Jin was just a poor scholar.
Shen Yuan gritted his teeth, casting aside all his pride, and thought of ways to coax and entice her every day.
The colder and more indifferent Su Jin was towards him, the more proactive Shen Yuan became.
He was not afraid of being mocked by the world, only wanting to marry his Wife-master early, to hold her hand and never let go for a lifetime.
[Note: This story will not specifically point out the male lead’s reincarnation time point; it’s all in the details. Whenever you feel that the male lead is acting strangely, he has most likely been reincarnated.]
