Now, even if Seorin looks for Director Hong, nothing will change.
Because she has already obtained everything she needed.
[Where are you? Come to the office quickly. [Dash] Jaeha]I received a message from Jaeha as I was heading home.
It was an urgent message asking me to come to his home office.
I immediately called Jaeha, but the message informed me that his phone was turned off, making my heart sink.
I hurriedly headed to Jaeha’s home office.
As I opened the office door, breathing heavily,
Jaeha, looking just like when he greeted me in the morning, shook my hand while looking at me.
“No… What is this situation?”
“What situation is there? It was a message asking you to come and bring your husband who is working overtime.”
Looking at Jaeha welcoming me with the same face as usual, I felt disheartened.
What on earth did the message mean, as if something serious had happened?
“I knew you would worry, thinking something happened.”
Unconsciously, Jaeha, who had risen from his seat, approached me.
On the way to the W office, I recalled the things that had been bothering me.
I even sped to come quickly.
If this was going to happen, I should have come slowly, a belated regret rushed in.
“Why on earth did you turn off your phone?”
“Oh, did my phone battery run out? I didn’t realize because I was so absent-minded.”
“Is that an excuse… Does that make sense?”
Only now did he seem to feel my concern and approached, hugging me.
Annoyed by his attempt to comfort me after making me worry, Jaeha hugged me tightly as I tried to push him away.
“Really. There was a very minor incident before Ms. Yujin arrived.”
“A minor incident?”
If there’s an incident, it’s an incident, not minor.
It was a moment when I was smiling meaningfully.
[Dash] Ding-dong.“Come in.”
As Jaeha gave permission, the closed office door opened.
When a secretary entered, she was surprised and pushed Jaeha away.
“CEO, the car… Why is Ms. Yujin here?”
The secretary, who saw me and stopped talking as if she were in the wrong place, seemed flustered.
“I asked Ms. Yujin to come. She’s going to drive me.”
It bothered me that the hand he grabbed seemed to be focused on.
But Jaeha didn’t let go, unashamedly holding onto my hand.
“Oh, is that so? I was waiting for the company car to arrive.”
“When will the car be repaired?”
“They said it would be completed tomorrow morning.”
‘What is he talking about? Car repair? No way…’
While looking at the two people continuing an incomprehensible conversation, I opened my eyes wide.
I wondered if what I was thinking was correct.
“Did the car get into an accident by any chance?”
Both of them, who were continuing the conversation, looked at me at the same time.
Jaeha smiled as if to say he just found out.
“There was a minor collision in front of the company.”
Now I understand why Jaeha contacted me.
To the point where he didn’t even know that his phone was turned off, he was too preoccupied.
“I told you. There was a minor incident.”
I didn’t expect that the minor incident would be a collision.
Moreover, it’s a car accident, and that’s not something minor.
Unlike my surprised expression, Jaeha had a relaxed expression.
The next morning.
I looked at myself in the mirror and fixed my hair.
Last night, on the way home with Jaeha, I received a call from Seorin.
I expected a call after parting at the OB-GYN during the day, but I didn’t expect her to contact me so soon.
[Dash] Unni, let’s meet briefly tomorrow. I want to talk in a quiet place.I didn’t expect Seorin to suggest meeting so directly.
Her unusually calm voice was unfamiliar.
Perhaps Director Hong didn’t tell the whole truth.
However, the voice coming through the phone seemed unstable, as if sensing a subtly changed atmosphere.
But the place Seorin told me wasn’t in Seoul.
Meeting at a sparsely populated park in the suburbs felt oddly ominous.
‘Maybe it’s not something others should hear.’
Just in case, Mr. Hyun-ik decided to come to the meeting place.
I thought I should hurry up and set off while gathering my thoughts.
“He hasn’t come out yet? Didn’t he say he would come out in the morning?”
In the living room, I heard Jaeha talking to someone on the phone.
Jaeha swept his face awkwardly.
“Even if I bring the company car, it seems to be late. I really don’t want to ride in a car driven by someone else… Okay.”
Jaeha sighed deeply and hung up the phone.
At a glance, his face seemed very awkward in this situation.
“The car hasn’t come out yet?”
“Yes. It seems to be about an hour late.”
“We had an important meeting today, didn’t we?”
Jaeha seemed deeply troubled.
He said that today’s meeting was crucial for advancing Intech’s bankruptcy.
‘Even on the weekend, he scheduled a meeting. It must be urgent. You can’t postpone such a meeting.’
I’ve never seen Jaeha look so awkward.
“That’s right. It seems to be too late to wait for a secretary to arrive. Should I take a taxi?”
He said he wouldn’t ride in a car driven by someone else.

One-line summary: Male lead chases female lead. The male lead’s love is a bit sick, an invincible love brain.
Synopsis
During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.
Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”
Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”
With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.
Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?
He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”
