Seo Rin reminded Director Park once again about Tae Joon’s conditions. However, Director Park’s eyes were still filled with dissatisfaction and worry.
Others were managing well even with strategic marriages. Why were they so dissatisfied with her marriage, which was done based on conditions?
She didn’t understand why it was okay for others, but not for her.
During the silence, they arrived at the city hall parking lot. When Seo Rin sent a message to Tae Joon, he was seen getting out of the car.
His figure was noticeable even from afar. A petite woman was next to him. It was probably his secretary, whom he had been boasting about all along.
“He’s already here.”
Everything was perfectly prepared. All she needed to do now was get off the car with Director Park and present him as a witness to the marriage.
However, the back of Director Park’s head, who was not easily dealt with, pricked Seo Rin’s eyes uncomfortably.
“Get out. We’re going into the city hall together.”
“Me, me? Why me? I’m not the one registering for marriage.”
Surprised, Director Park turned around and asked, but Seo Rin didn’t have time to kindly explain and opened her mouth in her characteristic dry voice.
“Yes. Director Park needs to be a witness.”
“Whaat?”
He asked back, extending the end of his sentence, seeming quite surprised.
However, seeing her resolute face, which didn’t seem to intend to take back the words she had spit out, Director Park’s face began to change rapidly.
“Then who’s going to do it? If it were a public wedding that the neighborhood could gossip about, I wouldn’t need to bring Director Park as a witness. But the situation turned out this way. The only people around me who know about this marriage are my stepmother and Director Park. So, get out.”
Eventually, at her words, Director Park exploded his anger that he had been holding back and hit the steering wheel.
“Why are you doing this to me… whyyy!”
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Despite his strong display of dissatisfaction, Seo Rin seemed completely unconcerned and got out of the car to approach Tae Joon.
Director Park glared at Tae Joon with a resentful look in his eyes.
He remembered the moment he was first captivated by Tae Joon’s modellike appearance.
At first, he had taken Tae Joon’s side for fear that Seo Rin might make a mistake due to personal feelings, but now he couldn’t do that anymore.
How could he propose marriage to Seo Rin using stocks as an excuse! How could he!
Of course, someone might say that he was reacting too emotionally to his employee’s marriage. But Director Park and Seo Rin had a bond beyond that.
Seven years ago, his wife died.
She had been a maid working hard at the current Sungwon Crystal Hotel to take care of their just over oneyearold daughter, instead of him who was wandering around recklessly getting into trouble.
His woman, whom he never once called “honey” because they hadn’t even registered their marriage.
It was pancreatic cancer. However, until the moment of her death, he didn’t even know that his wife was sick.
The first one to extend a hand to him, who was sitting in a daze holding his oneyearold daughter, was Seo Rin.
Introducing herself as the director of Sungwon Hotel, she handed him a business card and disappeared.
He couldn’t go back to his reckless life, leaving his crying baby girl in his arms. But there was no place to give immediate employment to him who had never had a decent job.
He was at a loss. It was just despair. And at the end of his thinking, he sought Seo Rin.
He thought the best he could do was to guide parking in the hotel parking lot, but he had no choice but to grab at straws.
But Seo Rin hired him as her personal driver. It was a groundbreaking offer for him who had only been a thug without even graduating from college.
And that wasn’t all. After two years, he was transferred to the secretary’s office, and now he had even earned the title ‘Director’ as Seo Rin’s closest secretary.
And his baby daughter, who used to be breastfed, was now eight years old, calling Seo Rin ‘aunt’ and following her around.
The opportunity that Seo Rin gave not only saved his life but also his young daughter’s life.
She was a benefactor. A lifelong benefactor who opened the way again for him and his young daughter who were only left to fall off a cliff.
Once, someone asked why she gave such an opportunity to a thug like him.
“Because he was desperately holding onto the crying baby in his arms at the funeral, not entrusting it to someone else’s hand. He wasn’t a good husband, but still… he was a father of a child. That alone was enough to qualify for an opportunity.”
From then on, Director Park pledged his loyalty to Seo Rin with all his might.
That’s why he wished for her happiness more than anyone else.
As his and his daughter’s lives blossomed upon meeting her, he sincerely wished that she too would meet someone and blossom.
But this kind of strategic marriage, he was not happy about it at all.
Stand as a witness to this marriage? He couldn’t possibly light the way with his own hands for a journey heading towards misery. Even if he couldn’t prevent it, he couldn’t directly facilitate it either.
He might not have the right, but he intended to show his discontent in his own way.
I’m not getting out of this car even if I die!
“Get out, I guess!”
With that sentiment, Director Park gripped the steering wheel as hard as he could.
“Is Director Park not getting out?”
Tae Joon asked, seeing Seo Rin getting down from the car alone. She looked back once and sighed softly.
Undoubtedly, Director Park would be roughly gripping the steering wheel with a displeased look. It was like watching a video, even without looking.
But she wasn’t too worried.
Because as much as Director Park knew her well being her closest aide, she also knew Director Park better than anyone else.
“Is he against this marriage?”
“Rather than being against it, he probably doesn’t like the idea of standing as a witness with his own hands.”
She pinpointed the facts accurately.
“But don’t worry, he’ll get out.”
As Tae Joon’s gaze turned towards the car, Seo Rin confidently said and picked up her cell phone.
“Are you really not getting out? Then, just sign.”
At her question, a man’s voice echoed from the phone. He couldn’t hear what he was saying exactly, but he could tell he was expressing strong discontent.
After listening for a while, Seo Rin, who had been frowning, relaxed her brows and looked at the car with a leisurely gaze.
However, the sight looked incredibly chilly, as if she was loading a decisive strike.
His guess was correct.
Because Seo Rin, in a slow but clear voice, uttered the following words.
“Alright, Director Park. But you know, it’s a marriage that’s going to happen anyway, so what if she meets someone like Jo Min Hyung again?”
Tae Joon had no idea what that meant.
But at that moment, a miracle happened. Director Park, who had been stubborn, got out of the car, screaming as soon as he heard those words.
The shell she had loaded hit its mark.
“Uwaaaak!”
It was so resounding that it seemed to echo through the parking lot.
But Seo Rin turned to leave as if she didn’t care about Director Park’s reaction.
At this point, a question arose. And he followed Seo Rin, leaving the incandescent Director Park behind, and voiced his curiosity.
“Let me ask one thing.”
That name, unfamiliar yet not unfamiliar.
“But… who is Jo Min Hyung?”
It was a name that strangely upset him.

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.
