3 hours ago.
Because he missed Taeyeon so much, Dojun quickly finished his work as fast as light and boarded a plane to Seoul.
Without saying a word, he arrived at Gimpo Airport with the intention of surprising her.
However, what greeted Dojun was even more astonishing news.
Secretary Choi cautiously delivered the news, “Madam went into a club in Gangnam.”
“Why would she go there?”
“I don’t know the reason.”
“Go there immediately.”
“Should I instruct the security team to follow her in?”
“For now, go inside together, but keep a distance and watch.”
“Understood.”
While Dojun was away, he worried that Mr. Jin might come and cause trouble for Taeyeon, so he had stationed a security team near her house. He had instructed them to keep a watchful eye from a distance in case Taeyeon went out, and that contact came through Secretary Choi.
It was evening, but the roads were heavily congested.
Dojun loosened the necktie that was choking him and pulled it down.
Secretary Choi, driving, smirked, “But why did Madam go to a club? She seemed to prefer quiet places.”
“She probably went to meet Jin Taejin.”
“Ah, I see.”
Secretary Choi nodded as if understanding now.
Until the phone call earlier today, there had been no mention of anything.
So, he couldn’t have predicted this.
She probably went without telling me to avoid burdening me.
“Think about yourself first.”
Taeyeon was always more considerate of the other person.
It was Friday, a day when Taeyeon never missed going to the club, so she probably didn’t want to miss this day.
“This is why she said she didn’t want to be left alone.”
The road, jammed like a parking lot, was incredibly frustrating.
Secretary Choi received a call from a security guard.
“Oh, now?”
“What’s going on?”
“They say Madam and Jin Taejin came out together.”
The security guard conveyed something, and Secretary Choi reported it as it was.
“They’re talking outside. Should I intervene?”
It didn’t seem good for someone else to get involved.
“For now, watch, and if they move elsewhere, ask for an update.”
“Understood.”
“How much time is left?”
“We’ll be there in about five minutes.”
Even the alley leading to the club was heavily congested.
Without hesitation, Dojun unbuckled the seatbelt and briskly opened the door.
“Chief!”
Ignoring Secretary Choi calling him, Dojun quickly moved forward.
Just as Taeyeon came into view from a distance, his steps quickened even more.
Almost there.
He witnessed Taeyeon, unable to endure, slapping Jin Taejin’s cheek.
He was furious to the point of losing his composure.
How dare he lay a hand on my wife.
It made him sigh, wondering if there was no way to communicate without resorting to violence in that family.
“Jin Taejin, go tell my father that we’re going to cancel this marriage!”
At Taeyeon’s sharp voice, Dojun’s steps gradually slowed down.
Divorce.
The word struck his heart like a hammer.
Dojun moved very slowly, like someone had tied sandbags to his legs.
Fortunately, Taeyeon didn’t say anything.
“When your sister is talking, don’t you listen?”
When Taeyeon reached out to grab a handful of Taeyeon’s lush hair, Dojun suddenly intervened, grabbing Taeyeon’s wrist and twisting it.
“Ahh, it hurts. Who does this…?”
Taeyeon cried out, but when she spotted Dojun, she bit her lips and fell silent.
It was unclear from where Dojun heard, but he sighed contemplatively.
Dojun casually pushed away Taeyeon’s wrist, turned toward her, and saw her swollen cheek.
“Mr. Dojun?”
Taeyeon blinked her large eyes, seeming unsure if what she was witnessing was correct.
Without saying anything, Dojun opened his arms wide and embraced Taeyeon.
“First, let’s go to the hospital.”
“No, I’m fine.”
Dojun released his grip on Taeyeon’s arms, turned to face her, looked at her face with a stern expression, and covered her swollen cheek with his hand. The area that had been hit was very hot.
“Maybe we should call Dr. Kim.”
“I’ll be fine if I apply an ice pack.”
Amidst their chatter, Dojun felt the gaze of someone eyeing the affectionate couple. Slowly, he straightened his posture, hiding Taeyeon behind him and sending a cold stare.
“Mr. Jin Taejin, is having bad habits a family tradition?”
“Oh, what are you talking about? Taeyeon has been following me around, causing me so much stress.”
“The person following you is not my wife.”
“How do you know? Did she secretly follow me to the club today?”
“I believe it.”
“…”
“My wife.”
With a serious gaze, Taeyeon lost her words and opened her mouth wide.
Dojun, with a gaze that seemed capable of freezing the person in front of him, spoke with a cold tone.
“Go and tell Mr. Jin clearly.”
“What are you saying?”
“I violated the only condition I set, so there will be no more investment from now on.”
“What?”
“You’d better convey it yourself. Before I step forward.”
Taeyeon wore a bewildered expression.
“I’m the victim!”
Without properly listening to the story, Dojun raised the corner of his mouth.
“Do you think I’ll stay still like this?”
“Do it according to the law.”
My Step-brother Is Obsessed With Me (Female-dominant)
A gentle female protagonist vs pitiful in the early stage, and a sick male protagonist in the later stage
Cheng Songer transmigrated into the body of a vicious cannon fodder female supporting character with the same name as her in a female-dominant novel.
In the original story, the cannon fodder female supporting character was inhumane, committing domestic violence, gambling excessively, being lustful, and even wanting to sell her stepbrother to a brothel for money.
As luck would have it, she just happened to transmigrate at this time.
Seeing Cheng Qingzhi biting his lip, enduring the tears in his eyes, looking pitiful, her heart softened.
She stuffed the money back into the Madam’s hand and reached out to him.
“Brother, come home with me.”
