While entertaining this thought…
As Yoon-ji returned to her seat after going to the restroom, she approached Shirak’s desk.
Cough
Putting her hand on the desk, Yoon-ji asked, “Manager Chae, do you happen to like Taeyeon?”
“Huh?”
“Do you like Taeyeon?”
“What?”
Shirak stood up abruptly and waved her hand.
Yoon-ji deliberately spoke louder, as if wanting others to hear.
“No, Manager Chae, do you know that Director Jin has been constantly following Mr. Taeyeon these days?”
“Yoon-ji, when did I ever…”
The once quiet office now had everyone looking at Yoon-ji and Shirak.
Suddenly, Taeyeon, who was working, also stared at Shirak with a curious expression.
It was a nerve-wracking situation.
“Me with Director Jin? No way.”
“Then why do you keep spacing out and watching every time?”
“Ha, seriously.”
Shirak was truly in a nerve-wracking situation.
After all, she had to monitor Taeyeon’s every move and report to Taejin.
“Anyway, it’s not like that.”
Yoon-ji clenched her fist with a firm expression.
“Taeyeon could like him. He’s pretty, good at his job, and has a good personality.”
Taking a step closer, Yoon-ji continued with determination.
“Director Jin, she’s married.”
“I know, I am too.”
“So, Manager Chae, don’t entertain baseless thoughts.”
Shirak looked genuinely aggrieved, twisting her face as if feeling unjust.
Then, lost in thought, she suddenly locked onto an idea.
‘Wait a moment. What if I take advantage of this intense attention?’
Soon, Shirak’s eyes sparkled.
“This is all Director Jin’s fault.”
“What nonsense is this?”
Yoon-ji gave Shirak a skeptical look as she uttered unbelievable words.
“Who here has seen Director Jin’s husband?”
“No.”
Though Shirak turned her head and asked, no one in the office had seen Taeyeon’s husband.
“Look at that. Director Jin, isn’t this approaching a fake marriage?”
The attention that was focused on Shirak shifted entirely to Taeyeon.
“Yeah, Director Jin hasn’t been married for more than a year, right?”
“Her husband is abroad, but she’s still doing this?”
It was a situation Taeyeon truly didn’t want.
Everyone was waiting for Taeyeon’s response, making it difficult for her to remain silent.
Shirak, with a confident posture, smirked at Taeyeon.
“Oh, well…”
Taeyeon stood up from her seat, feeling dizzy.
Her head was spinning too much.
“Show us a photo you took with your husband.”
It was impossible.
The moment they saw that photo, they would realize her husband was Do-jun.
“Or a phone call? How about that?”
“My husband covers his face a lot.”
As Taeyeon continued to refuse, it seemed to make everyone suspicious.
When they were wondering if there was any other good solution.
Taeyeon’s phone, placed on the desk, started ringing.
Looking at the caller, Taeyeon’s face turned contemplative.
“Why, Director Jin?”
“Isn’t it your husband calling?”
Unfortunately, it was not Taeyeon’s husband who was calling.
Taeyeon hesitated for a moment, then continued with a perplexed expression.
And she turned the screen to show everyone.
“Uncle is calling…”
“Ah…”
As if to prove Taeyeon’s words, her phone displayed a call from ‘Uncle.’
It was truly perfect timing.
With just one call, the married female employees had apparently forgotten about Taeyeon’s fake marriage.
Everyone probably didn’t know it even in their dreams.
That the chairman of KK Group was Taeyeon’s father.
Whatever the case, getting out of this situation was more important for now.
“Well, then I’ll take the call and come back.”
“Hurry and go answer. Imagine how upset he’d be if you’re late. Manager Jin, isn’t that right for your father too?”
“Yes, well…”
Chairman Cha wasn’t that kind of person, but for now, Taeyeon nodded and left the office.
Purposely going out of the office, Taeyeon raised her voice a bit as she answered the phone.
“Yes, Father.”
Hearing that call, everyone in the room assumed it was a call from their respective fathers, and the rumor about Taeyeon’s fake marriage was put to rest.
Only Shirak, who was watching Taeyeon’s back, had an expression of disbelief.
Taeyeon entered an empty meeting room nearby.
“Father, I answered the call a bit late because I was in the office.”
My dear, I’m not sure if I called when you were busy.
“No, Father. Is something wrong?”
Oh, it’s nothing. I just wanted to hear my daughter-in-law’s voice.
It was a call with Chairman Cha after a long time.
It seemed Chairman Cha was genuinely curious about Taeyeon’s well-being and decided to call.
How about spending time with Do-jun?
“Sure. He takes good care of me.”
We might go on a date, but I’m not sure. He’s a guy who doesn’t have much interest outside of work.
“We occasionally go for drives around the neighborhood on weekends. How about going on a picnic together next time?”
Haha, a picnic. Sounds good.
As they exchanged pleasantries, when they reached the end of the call, Chairman Cha cautiously brought up something.
I had a dream yesterday.
“Yes, Father.”
It’s…
Wondering what story made him hesitate like this, Taeyeon listened attentively.
Finally, Chairman Cha’s voice came through the receiver, and Taeyeon’s eyes widened distinctly.
A giant white tiger leaped into my arms, not for a hug, but to be embraced. Hahaha.
It was a dream that would evoke thoughts of auspiciousness to anyone who heard it.
