“Why… Why you’re like this, you need to tell me to understand.”
“Why didn’t Director tell me? About such a thing…”
In her resentful voice, Song-gang had no words. Tears began to well up in Line’s eyes. Song-gang, with a large hand, gently rested it on her knee and comforted her.
“I want to cry, but why does everyone else cry first, really…”
Song-gang wore a bitter expression. Line completely understood his words, holding back her tears. Then, she placed her hand on the back of his hand.
“It must have been hard…”
Line blinked her eyes rapidly, as if tears were about to flow.
“A lot… It was hard.”
He didn’t deny it. If such words came out of his mouth saying it was difficult, one could guess the extent of the painful time he had been through.
“But you didn’t say anything to me… Ugh… We’ll see after it’s over. Really… Don’t just stay still.”
Her eyes and mouth were conveying completely different messages. Smiling, Song-gang stood up.
“Until Prosecutor Jin Line finishes work, how can I wait because I’m scared? I want to take you away right now…”
He glanced around the office. A sigh involuntarily escaped at the pile of documents. And the seat of Prosecutor Choi Ju-hyuk, who was too close, was really annoying.
“Working in a place like this. It’s so rough; it hurts my heart.”
In Song-gang’s eyes, there were more parts he wanted to take care of. Holding her hand, he kissed the back of her hand and looked at her with affectionate eyes.
“I’ll be relieved if you calm down a bit.”
Line gradually regained composure at his voice. Now that she thought about it, she felt sorry for treating his father so harshly. However, even if she could go back to that situation, she would have done the same.
“Don’t think about anything, Prosecutor Jin Line. Work hard on what you like, and let’s meet for dinner tonight.”
With those words, Song-gang left her office.
Now it was Na Song-woon’s turn. There was a need to secure more statements about the suspicion of embezzlement. Na Song-woon learned about the schedule for the summons investigation and raised a fuss.
Na Song-woon went straight to Song-gang. Song-gang, who was already drained, had no room to accommodate Na Song-woon’s complaints. Na Song-woon started crying from the moment she entered.
“Oppa, talk to me.”
“Go back.”
“What on earth happened? How could you do that to Mom? How could you kick Mom out like that?”
Na Song-woon questioned Song-gang, her expression somewhat frightened, as he stood up from his seat. When Song-gang rose, Na Song-woon seemed a bit intimidated.
“Oppa, that prosecutor sister is taking too long again. If this continues, something really bad might happen to me too. I really didn’t do anything wrong!”
“No, did you do nothing… wrong?”
“I just did what Mom told me to do. I didn’t do anything she didn’t ask for. Mom handled it herself.”
Song-gang was dumbfounded by Na Song-woon’s words. Putting his hand in his pocket, Song-gang sighed deeply, then sat on the edge of the desk and looked at Na Song-woon.
“And I told you before, right? That prosecutor sister, it’s no joke. I shudder at the thought of her. If I go this time, she probably won’t let me go until she hears the answers she wants. Oppa can do it. Can’t you save us, please…!”
Although Na Song-woon spoke as if she would grasp Song-gang’s hem, he had nothing to say to the child.
“When you go for the next investigation, go and answer as you are. That’s the way to survive.”
“If I say everything, what about Mom? What about Song-rim Oppa?”
Neither Geum Moran nor Na Song-rim was a subject of sympathy, but Na Song-woon’s heart was one that harbored a touch of sympathy.
“Pay the price, repent, and never do such things again.”
“Then I won’t do it again. Can’t you do something for me, Oppa?”
When Na Song-woon tried to kneel down, Song-gang sternly spoke.
“Don’t do that. It’s a meaningless gesture.”
In the face of Song-gang’s cold words, Na Song-woon couldn’t help but feel scared. Although Song-gang had knelt down in front of Na Song-woon before, he had never lifted her up or prevented such actions.
“Oppa…”
“I have no intention of forgiving you and your family. So don’t kneel down, don’t make such futile requests, repent in your heart, and go get investigated sincerely. That’s all I can say.”
Song-gang gave Geum Moran, Na Song-rim, and Na Song-woon opportunities.
“Fine, I’ll do that. Then I’ll just leave now. I have my own assets now! I’ll do everything I couldn’t do while watching out for Oppa!”
It was an expected but still unrepentant attitude. Song-gang didn’t bat an eye.
After Na Song-woon noisily disturbed Song-gang’s inner thoughts and left, he looked out the window and calmed his mind. He didn’t want to go meet Line with a completely shattered mood.
But because it didn’t seem like it would be resolved so easily, he set out with the desire to see her a little sooner.
When Song-gang stepped into Line’s house, she approached him and hugged him tightly. Song-gang wordlessly placed his large hands on her back and comforted her by stroking her gently.
