It seemed that Taejin had no intention of giving even such time.
Taeyeon closed her eyes.
The face of Dojun I saw in the photo earlier kept flashing before my eyes.
I knew better than anyone that he wouldn’t give his attention to anyone other than me.
But what use was it now?
If Taejin decided to maliciously report the photo to the media, the image that Dojun had built up so well would collapse in an instant.
People will believe what they see.
Even if I explain it well and get over it.
Taeyeon knew better than anyone that Taejin wouldn’t stop there.
So, she must have secretly kept the genetic test report and the photo of Dojun in case the new product leak incident is resolved smoothly.
“Haha.”

She was truly a frightening woman.
What Taejin wanted was just one thing – for me to become unhappy.
“That won’t happen as your heart desires, sister.”
Of course, I might be a little unhappy for a while when I leave Dojun, but that would be it.
If I endure that short period, an unimaginable happiness unique to Taeyeon will bloom.
After I leave, CEO Jindongpil and Taejin won’t touch Dojun.
Because there’s no reason for them to meddle.
Yes, that’s enough for me.
As long as Dojun, who was the only light and sun in my world, remains unharmed.
If they don’t touch Dojun, Taeyeon can endure her heart being torn apart for a while.

That is my happiness.
If I can help Dojun advance on the path he wants without being hindered by leaving myself.
If I can only be evaluated for Dojun’s work from now on.
So, although I can only cheer for him from afar now, it’s fine.
It’s a hundred times better than seeing Dojun scratched and battered everywhere.
Tears gathered in Taeyeon’s eyes as she thought this.
Gathering and gathering, then, after a moment, the clear liquid overflowed down her cheeks.
Taeyeon wiped away the tears with the back of her hand and stood up.
Walking aimlessly outside, her thoughts became clearer.
Checking the time, Taeyeon quickly hailed a taxi.

Today, Dojun’s meeting would end late.
Now was the last time given to me.
Arriving home with puffy eyes, Taeyeon was met with surprise by Mrs. Choi, who was tidying up.
Taeyeon looked around awkwardly.
“The response to the new product I released today was so good.”
“Ah…”
“So, I was so happy that I cried on the way home without realizing it.”
Whether she believed the unreasonable excuse or not, Mrs. Choi sincerely congratulated her.
“Madam, Dojun will be late today, and I’ve also had dinner after work. You can leave now.”
After seeing off Mrs. Choi, Taeyeon felt more anxious.

Going up to the second floor, Taeyeon opened her room.
She took out the divorce papers that Jindongpil had prepared and handed to her.
“Haah.”
I really didn’t know that I would fill this out with my own hands.
Taeyeon bit her lip and neatly filled in her information.
I have to finish writing this before Dojun arrives.
Because when I see Dojun’s face, what I firmly decided will quickly crumble.
As Taeyeon was nervously filling in each box.
The phone that was placed on the desk rang briefly.
It was a message from Dojun.

At the usual and warm message, Taeyeon put down the pen and lifted her head.
The tears that I had been holding back burst out again.
Why is this man so affectionate to me every moment?
So, even at the moment of leaving, he makes me cry like this.
“If you find out about the decision I’ve made… You won’t forgive me either.”
Still, I hoped you wouldn’t hate me for too long.
I couldn’t expect you to understand, but I hoped you would acknowledge that it was the best choice for Dojun.
It was truly selfish.
Taeyeon began quickly filling out the documents again.
After a while, the phone vibrated again.
I wondered if it was a message that Dojun’s meeting had ended, my heart fluttered, but fortunately, it was a call from CEO Jindongpil.

Taeyeon looked at the filled documents and took a deep breath before answering the phone.
“Yes.”
Normally, she would have warmly responded, “Yes, father.”
But today, she didn’t want to address him that way.
No, she won’t in the future either.
-Is it Taeyeon?
“…….”
-I heard from Taejin. You’ve decided to get a divorce.
“Yes, that’s right. I was just in the middle of filling out the divorce papers.”
-You thought well. How much do you think KK Group will look down on you when they see how indifferent you are?

While receiving the call from CEO Jindongpil, Taeyeon quickly put the divorce papers into the envelope.
-Are you planning to live separately from Mr. Cha for a while?
“Yes. That’s my plan.”
-Okay, Dad will find a place for you.
Hearing the word ‘Dad’, Taeyeon stopped abruptly in her tracks.
How ridiculous it must have been to deceive me all this time.
Taeyeon spoke with a chillingly calm voice.
“You don’t have to help me so much, even though you’re not really my father.”
-… What are you saying?
“But still, I appreciate what you’ve done for me. Through this marriage, Cha Shin Yub has gained something. I’ll consider it a way of repaying your kindness.”

-No, Taeyeon…
Although CEO Jindongpil shouted something, Taeyeon quickly hung up the phone.
Staring at the constantly ringing phone, she threw it carelessly on her desk.
The vibration sound continued.
Whether it was a call from CEO Jindongpil or a call from Dojun, without checking, Taeyeon slammed the door.
“Sigh.”
After packing a few underwear and clothes in a bag, Taeyeon left the house without any regrets.
It was really the end now.
Tears kept pouring out, blurry vision covering everything.
Why am I crying like this when I don’t even have the right to cry?

Pressing down the erupting emotions with one hand, Taeyeon pushed the front door with determination.
