Do Jun soon withdrew his hand that was wrapped around Tae Yeon’s waist and touching her cheek.
At his sudden touch, Tae Yeon’s face turned red.
“I’ll wash up first.”
As Tae Yeon was about to leave the room, Do Jun stopped her.
“Miss Jin Tae Yeon, can you reconsider what you said earlier?”
“What did I say?”
“The part about using separate rooms.”
“……”
“And about commuting separately.”
Do Jun added the reason for such a request.
“It’s because I’m worried that rumors might spread that our relationship isn’t good.”
“Huh. Alright.”
“Thank you.”
Do Jun was right. It was only natural for rumors to spread that the couple was not on good terms if they were spending time separately and using separate rooms, all because of such a minor emotion.
Tae Yeon went into the bathroom first, leaving Do Jun behind with a faint smile on his face.
It was an unusually hard day.
((()))((()))((()))
As soon as Do Jun arrived at work, Secretary Choi followed him in.
“Director, I think you need to look at this.”
While taking off his jacket, Do Jun gestured for him to place the tablet PC on the table.
After settling deep into his chair, Do Jun picked up the tablet PC. It was a series of photos of Tae Yeon sent by the paparazzi.
“I’ve seen this before.”
“If you flip to the next page, you might be surprised.”
As Secretary Choi had said, Do Jun checked the next photo and was silent for a while.
He barely took his eyes off the tablet PC, then Do Jun laughed softly.
“Funny.”
The photo that Secretary Choi showed was a family photo of Tae Yeon.
He knew Tae Yeon had an older sister, but this was the first time he had seen her face.
Even at the family meal before the wedding, Tae Jin had not shown her face.
“Is this woman Jin Tae Jin?”
“Yes. She is the older sister of Madam.”
Do Jun squinted and zoomed in on the photo.
“They said they were twins.”
Tae Yeon and Tae Jin looked more alike than he thought.
“Huh.”
Do Jun let out a low sigh as if he was dumbfounded.
Do Jun stared intently at the magnified face of Tae Jin, shaking his head as if he was amazed.
“Since Miss Jin Tae Jin did not attend the family dinner, you naturally wouldn’t know her face.”
Do Jun’s frown deepened at Secretary Choi’s words.
The family dinner was in lieu of the wedding.
His own brother, Ha Joon, did not attend, but their relationship was so bad that it was nearly hostile, so he could accept that.
Why hadn’t Tae Jin attended the family dinner?
At the time, he hadn’t been curious about it at all.
“Cha Sin Group has been trying hard to hide the fact that Madam and Jin Tae Jin are twins.”
Do Jun chuckled as if he couldn’t believe it.
“Hidden?”
“Madam and Yoon Tae Jin have always attended different schools.”
Do Jun nodded as if asking him to continue.
“Most of the time, Yoon Tae Jin spent abroad.”
“They sent one of their own daughters to study abroad?”
Do Jun pinpointed that part as well, seeming surprised.
“I will investigate further.”
“Do that.”
Do Jun stared hard at the picture sent by the person in question on the tablet PC.
Just by looking at the picture, he couldn’t tell whether this woman was Tae Yeon or Tae Jin.
There was no one trying to fool Do Jun, but he felt like he had been fooled by someone.
“If Secretary Choi had investigated first, I might not have had to come back to Korea.”
The woman in the picture, who he had believed to be Tae Yeon all along, could be Tae Jin.
Relief and disbelief came together.
Secretary Choi bowed his head and apologized.
“I should have investigated without letting you know, Director. I apologize.”
“No, it’s not Secretary Choi’s fault.”
As he continued to look at the picture of Tae Yeon and Tae Jin side by side, it felt like the tangled threads were being untied.
“Secretary Choi, then the person in the photo being delivered to us is…….”
“Yes. It’s more likely to be her older sister than Madam.”
“Huh.”
“During the time you’ve been in Korea and spending time with Madam, there were photos taken that made no sense, weren’t there?”
“There were.”
It all made sense. If it was not Tae Yeon but Tae Jin, that is.
Only then did he seem to understand why Tae Yeon had shed tears in front of him yesterday.
“She must have felt wronged.”
At first, he thought Tae Yeon was pretending to be weak in front of him yesterday.
However, upon seeing Tae Yeon insist on conducting her own background investigation, Do Jun began to think that he might be misunderstanding something.
“Why do you say that?”
“No, carry on.”
Secretary Choi continued to recount stories about Tae Yeon’s family.
And, pausing for a while as if there were more to say, she cautiously began to speak.
“Sir, I …”
“What else is there?”
“I pondered whether or not I should tell you this.”
“Why would that be?”
“According to my research ….”
Upon hearing Secretary Choi’s words, Do Jun’s eyebrows furrowed deeply.
It was said that the relationship between Tae Yeon and her parents was not particularly close.
Also, she reported that it was very rare for Tae Jin and Tae Yeon to dine out together as a family.
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…?
