Kim Seo-jung, who voluntarily appeared at the prosecution for investigation, was eventually arrested on charges of murdering a teacher.
Upon this, even members of the same party who had been watching Seo Ji-man’s every move began to criticize him loudly. The party was even discussing Seo Ji-man’s expulsion.
Meanwhile, the bribery charges that Ji-man had been suppressing also resurfaced, and Ji-man, who had been enduring at home, had no choice but to appear before the prosecution.
“Assemblyman, do you admit to the bribery charges?”
“It’s not true.”
Ji-man made an unjust expression.
“So, you’re saying you didn’t take bribes?”
“The truth will be revealed.”
Ji-man stared at the camera with a determined expression, much like a hawk.
“There is clear evidence of bribery going back and forth; what do you think about that?”

“This is a political conspiracy. Political oppression. I won’t yield.”
Avoiding answering the question until the end and without a word of apology, Ji-man confidently walked into the prosecutor’s office.
Chairman Cha, watching the news about Representative Seo, turned off the television.
“Chairman, it’s time for your meal.”
At the call of the princess, Chairman Cha entered the dining room.
“What about Seok-jun?”
“He went to the madam’s birthday party.”
Chairman Cha sat alone at the large dining table.
‘Was the table always this big?’
He felt unusually empty sitting alone at this wide table today.

‘My family is falling apart, and they’re having a birthday party.’
Chairman Cha clicked his tongue.
‘Still, it’s a relief. Thanks to Yoon being revealed to have been abused. Now there’s no need for further involvement with Representative Seo. It would have been better if they had made more noise in the news for a few more days, but Kang Hyun probably stopped it again.’
Chairman Cha lost his appetite and put down the spoon.
On the other hand, watching Chairman Cha, who looked particularly lonely today, the princess clicked her tongue.
‘When you get old, no matter what, a wife is the best. Our Chairman probably thought he would be forever young. Chairman, wouldn’t it have been better if you had treated the madam better when she was alive? Tsk tsk.’
Yoo Seon, Kang Hyun’s aunt, wanted to prepare a birthday party for Yun, so Yun’s birthday party was held at Yoo Seon’s restaurant.
‘I don’t have a daughter, so can I consider you my daughter?’
Fortunately, Yoo Seon treated Yun like her own daughter. Perhaps because she was like a mother to Kang Hyun, Yun also felt particularly affectionate toward Yoo Seon.
“Thank you so much for treating our Yun so well.”
Ok-soon held Yoo Seon’s hand and bowed repeatedly.

“Our Yun has decided to consider you as her mother now. So, as her mother, it’s only natural to celebrate her daughter’s birthday.”
“What? No, I’m so thankful for this.”
Yoo Seon’s words deeply moved Ok-soon and Hosik.
“Well then, I’ll step out for a moment.”
As Yoo Seon stood up, Ok-soon and Hosik also rose and escorted her to the door.
“Grandma, are you feeling better now?”
Kyung-hwa asked as she helped Ok-soon sit back down. Kyung-hwa, Cheol-young, and Moo-jin had all gathered to celebrate Yun’s birthday.
“I’m fine now. You needlessly worried about me.”
Ok-soon, watching the people being interviewed on television about Yun being abused at Representative Seo’s house, fainted on the spot. The vague thought that Yun had experienced something difficult when she ran away came to her mind. Ok-soon innocently believed that Yun had fallen down the stairs.
But now, knowing that it was all true, Ok-soon couldn’t recover from the shock for a long time.

Hosik also suffered from shock and groaned, eventually being hospitalized by Kang Hyun.
Hosik couldn’t forgive himself for pushing Yun into that house.
‘It’s not Grandpa’s fault.’
However, despite Kang Hyun’s comfort, Hosik couldn’t recover his strength for a while. Therefore, Kang Hyun stated that legal measures would be taken regarding the news related to Yun, and after that, the news about Yun no longer spread.
‘Those who tormented Yun will soon pay the price.’
In response to Kang Hyun’s words, Hosik nodded silently. After that, he gradually began to regain his strength. For Yun’s birthday, he made sure to attend the meal.
“Madam, here’s the gift. It’s a dress I designed. You can wear it this spring.”
Kyung-hwa offered a gift to Yun.
“Thank you.”
Yun carefully unwrapped Kyung-hwa’s gift.

“Wow! It’s so beautiful. Unni, I’ll wear it well.”
Yun, who had no fashion sense, became a topic of conversation on the internet when she wore a dress designed by Kyung-hwa. The fact that it was a dress by an unknown designer created a bigger sensation, and inspired by this, Kyung-hwa, who gained courage, was preparing to develop her own independent brand.
“Madam, this is the gift I prepared.”
Cheol-young also presented a gift. It was an aesthetically designed bookstand that he had chosen after much contemplation.
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.”
