Song Kang’s gaze, released from tension, turned toward Line, who sat exhausted in the prosecutor’s seat. Song Kang approached her without being conscious of the surrounding gaze. He respectfully bowed to her.
“Thank you.”
Line, awakening from her dazed state, stood up from her seat. Tears welled up in her eyes as she approached him.
“Thank you for enduring.”
“Thank you for believing.”
Song Kang extended his hand to Line. She firmly held his sturdy hand. Song Kang couldn’t endure anymore, be it his pride or anything else.
He quickly pulled Line into his arms, as people could only gasp in surprise at the suddenness. Overwhelmed by emotions, the two couldn’t speak, tightly embracing each other.
Today, Joo-hyuk couldn’t intervene between the two. With a bitter expression, he turned away and left the courtroom.
Hae-in, with her characteristic smiling eyes, followed Joo-hyuk. As they left, Line separated from him and looked up at him.
“Would the person I chose lose? Could I be wrong?”
“How could I win this by doing well? The truth is originally one, so it’s a natural outcome.”
Just by looking at her face, which had become half-lifeless, it was clear how much she had gone through.
Despite her gaunt appearance, she exuded a beauty radiating from within. Song Kang looked at her with eyes full of respect.
“You did well. Thank you.”
At that moment, Attorney Cha Hae-in approached Song Kang cautiously. Line and Song Kang, who had now distanced themselves from each other, were now acting awkwardly.
“Director, you need to move now. Chairman is heading to the memorial park.”
“Ah… Has it already been that long? It takes about 30 minutes from here to Sunsan, right?”
Song Kang checked his watch.
“The memorial park?”
Line asked Song Kang.
“Oh, today, I’m going to see my mother. Would Prosecutor Jin Line like to come along?”
At Song Kang’s sudden suggestion, Line hesitated. Although Song Kang had suggested going together before, since he brought it up suddenly like this, she couldn’t help but feel perplexed.
She told Song Kang and Hae-in to depart promptly.
Back at the office, Line changed out of her prosecutor’s gown and put on a plain outfit. It wasn’t a dress code violation; she always wore a neat, monochromatic suit.
However, it was uncertain whether going to see his mother was the right thing. Line hesitated for a while but eventually left the prosecutor’s office. She compromised with herself, deciding to come only after seeing the distant mountain.
The place she arrived at by taxi was a secluded hill-like mountain on the outskirts of the city. Perhaps it was Taesung’s memorial park. The atmosphere there was grand yet gentle.
The unfamiliar path made Line look around. Thanks to the attendants who were accompanying Chairman Na and Song Kang, she could find him without wandering for long.
Line stood at a distance and joined in her thoughts. Watching Song Kang gently stroke his mother’s portrait, Line’s heart also ached.
As their mourning was coming to an end, Line looked away from the scene to leave. At that moment, Chairman Na pointed towards where Line was.
Song Kang’s gaze followed the direction where Line stood. Startled, Line quickly turned around, facing away from him. She hoped he hadn’t recognized her.
“Prosecutor Jin Line!”
It was Song Kang, who could recognize Line even with his eyes closed. He immediately rushed towards her.
“No, did you come here alone?”
“Ah… Yes… Well… It happened. Please finish what you were doing quickly. I’m going too.”
A bit flustered, Line tried to push away his hand. However, Song Kang couldn’t just let her go.
“Go and say hello before leaving.”
“What? Why… Chairman Na wouldn’t like it.”
“Why does Father dislike Prosecutor Jin Line? Father recognized Prosecutor Jin Line first and asked me to bring her. Besides, Mother has never met Prosecutor Jin Line. I wanted to introduce Prosecutor Jin Line to our mother.”
Song Kang, who usually doesn’t get excited, spoke at a faster pace than usual. Seeing what he was hoping for, Line couldn’t easily push away his hand. Song Kang blinked his eyes and held Line’s hand.
After dismissing all the staff except Attorney Cha Hae-in, Song Kang introduced Line to Chairman Na. Standing in front of Chairman Na, Line found it difficult to meet the older person’s eyes for some reason.
The feeling was different from when meeting as a prosecutor and defendant. Chairman Na, who had already sensed the relationship between Song Kang and Line, felt that Line coming all the way here was admirable and appreciated it.
“Prosecutor, you’ve taken difficult steps to come here.”
“Oh, no.”
Line exchanged awkward greetings with Chairman Na. Song Kang held Line’s hand and stood in front of his mother.
“Mother, this is the person I like.”
Surprised, Line looked up at Song Kang with her ears turning red. She couldn’t ignore the gaze of Attorney Cha Hae-in and Chairman Na.
Chairman Na had an almost relaxed and satisfied expression, while Hae-in just had her characteristic smiling eyes.
