“Hmm.”
Shirak covered her mouth in surprise with one hand and reached out with the other to snatch the phone from Dojun.
However, because Dojun skillfully raised his arm higher, Shirak immediately missed the phone right in front of her.
From the phone, the lively voice of Taejin began to flow.
“Oppa, you said you erased all the CCTV footage, right? Especially the ones from the elevator and lobby CCTV where Jintae-yeon appears, prioritize those.”
Hearing that story, Shirak fell into contemplation, and Dojun, as if finding it interesting, smiled, pulling up the corners of his mouth.
It was the moment when the hunt was successful.
For a moment, silence fell on the emergency staircase.
Taejin, sensing something strange in Shirak’s silent response, spoke again.
“Oppa, are you listening to me?”

“Mr. Jintaejin, this is Manager Chae Dojun.”
…….
“Do you admit to being the one who attempted to invade KK Food’s main server?”
“What are you talking about?”
It seemed that Taejin understood the situation only now, as his voice began to tremble.
At the right moment, the audit team leader, who had been waiting upstairs, revealed himself.
Shirak’s face became even colder.
“It seems that Jintaejin is also involved in this new product leakage incident.”
“I don’t know anything about it. Talk to Shirak Oppa.”
With that statement, Taejin abruptly hung up.

Shirak, with a contemplative expression, waved his hand in the air.
“Whatever that woman said, it has nothing to do with me. Director, please…”
No matter what Shirak said, the audit team leader ignored him and blocked Dojun’s way.
“Manager Chae Shirak, we need to talk again. Please make some time.”
Taking a step back, Shirak spat out his words.
“Fine. Jintaejin asked me to do something. Does that have nothing to do with this matter?”
Dojun ignored him.
“Taejin asked for a background check on Director Jin.”
Dojun also knew that much, so he had a calm expression.
Impatient Shirak began to blurt out whatever came to his mind.

“I didn’t send that email to ○○ Food!”
The audit team leader once again blocked Shirak’s path, who was raging.
“We can check that ourselves. Let’s go first.”
“No, why are you taking me without any evidence?”
In response, Dojun smirked.
“Evidence?”
“Yeah, do you have evidence? Evidence that I sent that email!”
Dojun raised only one corner of his mouth sarcastically.
“Evidence? If there’s none, then we have to find it.”
Thinking that there would be no way to find it, Shirak still did not give up the last hope.
“If you can’t find evidence, you’ll have to apologize to me properly for falsely accusing me like this.”
“There’s no way we won’t find it.”
“What are you saying?”
“Even if there isn’t, we’ll have to create it.”
“What?”
Shirak’s face turned even paler at the ominous words.
“No, what did you just say… Manager Chae Dojun, wait a moment!”
Uttering a chilling remark, Dojun quickly ascended the emergency staircase, indicating the end of the conversation.
Upon hearing Shirak’s loud exclamations from downstairs, with a whale-like sound, Dojun approached Taeyeon.
“Shall we leave now?”
“Yes, let’s.”

Taeyeon’s legs were trembling, so she barely managed to grab the wall and move outside.
With a thud, the door closed, and Shirak’s loud shouting was no longer audible.
“Ha…”
Perhaps it was because of the astonishing story.
Taeyeon, unable to take a few steps, grabbed the wall again and exhaled deeply.
“Are you okay?”
“Yes, I’m fine, so Director, please go in first.”
“You’re here; where else would I go?”
Dojun, still checking the empty corridor, swiftly embraced Taeyeon with both arms.
“Director?”

“It seems doing more work here today is impossible.”
Dojun pressed the executive elevator button, and they entered, quickly descending to the parking lot.
“I’ll take you home, so rest.”
“No, I’m really okay…”
“Anyway, there’s no one here to question you about what happened even if you go back now.”
Though that was true.
Right on cue, the elevator they both entered arrived at the parking lot.
“I’ll get off here and go down.”
However, Dojun insisted as if he didn’t hear Taeyeon’s words.
“I can’t comply with your request today.”

Dojun quickly walked, pressed the car key with a beep, opened the passenger door, carefully lowered Taeyeon, and got in himself.
“You can go home alone. Dojun-ssi has a lot to do, so please go upstairs quickly.”
However, Dojun insisted, starting the engine.
“I may not go home. Yes?”
“In case I take a different route, I’ll have to come looking for you again.”
So, in many ways, it’s better for me to take you home.
During the journey home, Taeyeon asked cautiously.
“Did you know by any chance?”
“About what?”
“My sister asked Manager Chae to investigate me.”

Dojun smiled bitterly and nodded.
“Oh, so…”
So, why did Shirak start a pointless conversation with me?
Taeyeon let out a short sigh.
“Do I have to do this until the end? If I don’t find any evidence, you’ll properly apologize for falsely accusing me.”
“There’s no way we won’t find it.”
Ex-husband Wants Reconciliation
One-line summary: Chasing the wife to the crematorium (making an effort to attract someone who has become indifferent), the female lead doesn’t look back, the second male lead takes the position.
Intro:
To repay the kindness of the older generation, Su Mu crossed into a female-dominated world and became a live-in daughter-in-law of the Yan family, single-handedly saving the Yan family from fire and water.
But her husband, Yan Jiyue, the eldest son of the Yan family, treated her with sarcasm and never showed her a good face.
It wasn’t until after Su Mu’s death that this pampered and arrogant young master shed a few fake tears and pretended to want to die for love.
This life’s kindness was enough. If there was a next life, she would definitely kick Yan Jiyue away.
Who knew that the heavens would be so kind as to allow her to be reborn, returning to the time when she had just married into the Yan family.
Su Mu glanced at the Yan eldest son, who still spoke coldly to her, and threw a divorce letter in front of him.
“Let’s divorce!”
***
Yan Jiyue never imagined that he would be reborn. He happily went to find Su Mu, wanting to make up for the mistakes he had made in his ignorant youth.
Wasn’t the reason the heavens allowed him to be reborn to let him reconcile with Su Mu?
But when he pushed open the door to Su Mu’s room, the person lying on the bed was another man.
Su Mu’s personal attendant, Xie Yi.
Yan Jiyue hated him so much that his teeth itched. In front of Su Mu, Xie Yi was a gentle and considerate whisperer of sweet nothings, but in reality, he was vicious-hearted and deliberately sabotaged their husband and wife relationship.
In the previous life, it was he who secretly hid in Su Mu’s coffin and committed suicide, stealing a step ahead of him to be buried with Su Mu.
Yan Jiyue’s eyes were filled with hatred as he cursed, “What kind of thing are you? Your background is lowly, what right do you have to occupy Su Mu?”
Xie Yi looked at the sleeping Su Mu and no longer pretended to be a whisperer of sweet nothings.
He proudly stuck out his belly, “I have the right because my belly is capable of giving the Wife-master a daughter.”
***
Yan Jiyue was consumed with jealousy. He spread rumors that Xie Yi had once been branded with the mark of a “harlot” on his chest.
But on the night Xie Yi cut off the flesh bearing that mark, Su Mu suddenly realized something was amiss.
“How did you know the exact moment I was poisoned? And why did you show up a month early?”
Xie Yi remained silent, blood from his wound soaking through his robes. His sapphire eyes brimmed with anguish – or was it just a flawless act?
Between a once-arrogant husband now seeking redemption, and a gentle soul willing to die for her – who truly held the darkest secrets? And could it be that Su Mu and Yan Jiyue weren’t the only ones given a second chance at life…?
