When Seji was arrested for embezzlement, Jeongli sensed that she had lost her job. As she went to Taein’s office to pick up her belongings, she unexpectedly ran into Yeongwon, who had been waiting for her.

Yeongwon scratched the back of his head with an apologetic expression, seemingly preparing to bring up a difficult topic.

“We decided to join Taegang.”

Since the successful launch of the brand created by Taein, it had been on a steady rise. She heard that they absorbed Taegang Industrial, where she had worked before losing her memory, and managed it directly. So, it was only natural to take the twins who had helped her in difficult times.

“You’ve been through a lot.”

Getting fired from being a spy was also expected.

“Yes, thank you.”

Yeongwon handed a envelope left by Taein to Jeongli. She exhaled a bitter breath and accepted the envelope.

There was no reason not to take it. It was now ridiculous to try to find her conscience. She had betrayed Taein, whom she claimed to do it for the family, and even stabbed him in the back.

Jeongli quickly organized her things. There were not many things to take. She didn’t have anything personal, just bags and wallets Taein had distributed to all the employees as samples, along with notes and stationery.

Debating whether to take them or not, Jeongli decided to pack everything into a large box. In fact, during the few weeks when she was a spy, Jeongli felt like a real part of the company.

There were times when she reported to Seji without telling Taein and even covered up Taein with lies after drinking at a company dinner.

She laughed bitterly, thinking about the futility of it all. Regret was a luxury. She had to live her life now. So, she had to think about changing jobs and settling down first.

After packing all her belongings, Jeongli left the office after saying goodbye to Yeongwon and Huiwon.

Sitting at the bus stop, Jeongli shivered at the suddenly cold weather. Then, she remembered a bag that she had thought of and took out a note from her pocket.

Inside the envelope was a note. Jeongli, who stared blankly at Taein’s crumpled handwriting, tilted her head.

The address written below was undoubtedly Taein’s family home. It was a place she used to frequent like her own because of Seji.

Jeongli, who had been contemplating, decided not to go to the goshiwon and hailed a taxi to Taein’s family home.

Why on earth did he ask her to come home? Could it be that he noticed she was a spy and wanted to hold her legally accountable?

Jeongli clenched her dry fingers tightly. Anyway, she intended to meet Taein and apologize. Whether she accepted it or not.

Since Taein returned alive, she had a burden on her heart. She felt that expressing her sorry feelings towards her was a necessary step to start a peaceful life in a new place.

Entering through the front gate, Jeongli looked down at the fallen soccer ball.

This soccer ball was something Jeongli had bought for Jeongdon. As she often lost the ball, Jeongli had personally written Jeongdon’s name on it.
However, on Jeongli’s toes, the rolling ball had the words ‘Im Jeongdon’ written on it.

Jeongli put down her belongings and reached out to grab the ball.

“Sister!”

With a joyful voice, Jeongdon appeared and hugged Jeongli tightly.

While petting Jeongdon’s head, Jeongli found it difficult to grasp a sense of reality, as if she were dreaming.

Jeongli grabbed Jeongdon’s shoulders, pulled away, and touched her brother’s face. No matter how she looked, he was her brother.

“Jeongdon, why are you here?”

“Grandma got a job here, so I’m living here. Taesik, no, Taein told me that you would live here.”

Taesik? Taein? Is he talking about Seo Taein?

Jeongli widened her eyes and looked at Jeongdon. Jeongdon took her hand and ran to the detached house where he stayed.

Jeongli, who ended up running along, was confused.

“Grandma got a job here?”

“Yeah! Now you have to call Grandma a director.”

What on earth is this about?

Jeongli followed Jeongdon into the detached house. Just as Jeongdon said, there were Grandma and Jeongdon’s belongings.

Staring blankly at the family photo on the table, Jeongli carefully looked around the detached house.

There was a sofa and a TV in the living room, and a dining table in the kitchen. In Jeongdon’s room, there was a small bed with a sky-blue puzzle-piece-patterned blanket laid on top, as if completing a puzzle.

It was a comfortable house that she had always dreamed of moving to when she earned a lot of money.

“There’s a room for you too.”

“My, my room?”

Jeongli went to the room Jeongdon pointed to. It was a room with a bed and a desk. Jeongli, who had never had her own room, felt strange.

“Is this really my room?”

“Yeah. Sister, when did you start working with Taein?”

She roughly heard it from Taein.

“Just a while ago.”

After roughly looking around, Jeongli opened the desk drawer. In the desk drawer, there was an envelope with the same design as the one she received from Yeongwon.

Feeling enchanted, Jeongli opened the envelope, and inside was a letter from Taein.
