“Oh… You don’t have to think like that. Instead, I’m impressed by Director Na Song-woon.”
Defense attorney Cha Hae-in looked at Song Kang with a respectful expression. However, Song Kang felt he didn’t deserve such words.
“Now you can really go out. Thank you for your hard work.”
Finally, Hae-in left the office.
As time passed, even after the sun had set, Song Kang continued to sit and keep his seat. There was a lot of work to be done, but overwhelming thoughts prevented him from getting up.
It wasn’t just the hurtful words the child had said. It was cruel to think about how they had come to this point and how irreversible time was. He disliked himself for not being able to prevent Geum Moran from entering Tae-sung, even though it couldn’t be helped.
Even if Geum Moran was inevitable, couldn’t he have raised the siblings born afterward as Tae-sung’s heirs? If he had taken care of and taught them well, wouldn’t things have turned out differently? These self-reproaching thoughts lingered as he headed home.
He checked the text message he sent to Lain as soon as he got in the car. He found out that she hadn’t even checked the message yet and felt more exhausted. As he tried to put down his phone, a short vibration sounded.
Director, I’m really sorry. I’m on my way now.
When she arrived at his house, it was already past 10 p.m. Lain prepared herself to hear something from Song Kang.
“I’m sorry.”
But contrary to her expectations, he embraced her.
“You had a hard day today.”
Lain hesitated. While it was true that she had a tough day, she felt no pride from him. The tired look emanating from him didn’t seem to be due to his mood.
Rather, she felt like she should ask him if he had a tough day. She buried her face in his chest and wrapped her arms around his waist.
“No.”
Song Kang laughed unknowingly.
“Director, are you laughing? Why are you laughing?”
Lain raised her head to look into his face.
There was a reason he laughed. He couldn’t help but laugh at how much he had frightened the child for her to come running like that, even to him.
He hadn’t laughed today. “Am I laughing? I didn’t have a single reason to laugh today…”
He wiped her face as she stared at him with concern.
“Is it so good to go back to the prosecutor’s office? No contact all day.”
“I didn’t know it was so good. But still… It would be nice if you contacted me more often. I shouldn’t be aimlessly wandering around the area near the prosecutor’s office just because I miss Prosecutor Jin-rae.”
His eyes, looking at her, had double eyelids.
“Why are you… looking at me like that?”
“Because I’m jealous.”
Song Kang pulled her waist closer.
“I can’t be your government, and you don’t know how frustrating that is. If only I were a lawyer, I would have set up a law firm for you…”
He burrowed into her neck and embraced her fully. She giggled and squirmed, feeling ticklish.
“Ah! It tickles!”
He lifted her up into his arms.
“Oh!”
Lain widened her eyes and, against her will, her face turned red. Due to the tension in his abdominal muscles, Lain became even more tense.
“Director, I’m hungry.”
Lain tried to divert his attention with the excuse that she was hungry. Then he looked at her with deeper eyes.
“I am too.”
Song Kang approached Lain’s lips like a hungry person. Due to the tension in Lain’s body, it was difficult for him to reach even though he relaxed his grip a bit.
“Let me go.”
“I did…”
She, who usually didn’t say no, was acting coy. Her teasing attitude stimulated Song Kang’s conquering desire even more.
He opened the bedroom door and gently laid her on the bed. Trapped within his gaze, Lain remained stiff, only blinking her eyes rapidly.
“I won’t touch you without permission. If you don’t want it, just say so anytime.”
Despite his gentle words, he roughly threw off his shirt.
“If you don’t say it, I won’t know. Today, you won’t say it.”
Not saying no verbally meant his declaration to do anything he wanted.
Song Kang again sealed Lain’s lips. His breath became rough due to the indescribable softness. His naughty hand gradually descended, starting to undo each button of her blouse.
As his lips followed the touch of his hand down her neck, she shivered and tensed her shoulders. She was too preoccupied with holding back the sound that wanted to burst out of her mouth.
Song Kang was captivated by the exposed collarbone and shoulder line. With a desire to see a more perfect curve, his hand delved deeper.
“Uh…”
Lain pulled his head up and embraced him with a rough breath. Her body trembled delicately. For some reason, even her pure appearance felt incredibly sexy to him.
“Ha… It seems like it can’t go on anymore.”
Her whisper and breath hitting his ear felt cruel. His body relaxed, pressing hers down.
“Uh… Director… I can’t breathe…”
Song Kang flipped his body, letting her come up on top.
“Haa… Isn’t this beyond cruel?”
He said with resentment mixed in his breath. Lain, as if not understanding English, touched his chest, got up, and looked at his expression.
Seeing her innocent appearance, he felt like he was going crazy.
Lain belatedly realized how she looked through his agonized expression.
“Oh my God!”
To hide the sight of her flesh revealed through the unbuttoned blouse, she hugged him again.
“I’ve lived enduring and enduring countless things, but today feels like an unprecedented challenge.”
