For some reason, Tae In felt unjustly treated.
So unjust that she was on the verge of tears.
Soon, the tears that came out of Tae In’s eyes accumulated blackly on the floor, and Tae In’s feet were stuck.
She tried to move her feet, but the black water, like mud, bound Tae In’s feet so she couldn’t move.
Nevertheless, Tae In shouted with all her might.
“It wasn’t me, I did nothing wrong!”
Unfortunately, Tae In’s words were lost in the void and reached no one.
At that moment, someone pulled Tae In’s feet. Tae In was sucked into the black water in an instant.
She felt suffocated and uncomfortable.
“Who’s going to believe that?”
A sweet voice echoed in her ear. That smooth voice felt disgusting for some reason. Tae In wanted to say something, but her mouth was locked and she couldn’t say anything.
“In this house, no, in this world, no one is on your side, who’s going to believe you?”
“You killed them all, didn’t you, Tae In? It’s chilling. How can a person do that?”
Tae In screamed with all her might.
And then she woke up from the dream.
Even after waking up, she felt immobilized, as if her arms and legs were tied.
She felt a damp and warm energy on her feet. From that point, her rigid body began to gradually loosen.
Completely exhausted, Tae In tightly embraced Stella, who was licking her feet.
Tae In bit her stinging lips. The burning sensation flooded back.
Nok Hyun returned to Seoul in no time. She was curious about what urgent matter he had to deal with, why he suddenly became so busy that he couldn’t see her for a while, but she didn’t ask. No, she couldn’t ask.
Tae In looked over the documents given by Lee Kyung again and again. She had memorized everything the moment she first saw them, but she kept looking for any small hint.
She didn’t receive any contact from either Nok Hyun or Lee Kyung until late in the afternoon.
She had expected not to hear from Nok Hyun, but when Lee Kyung didn’t call either, Tae In felt ominous.
Was it because of Nok Hyun’s bad expression yesterday, or because of the urgent kiss?
He’s probably busy, usually when the boss is busy, the secretary is busy too.
When she hung up the phone, the TV turned on with a beep.
When she turned around, Stella was gently gnawing on the remote control.
“Alright, alright. I’ll feed you.”
Tae In slowly got up and picked up the remote control.
The moment she was about to turn it off, Tae In saw the screen and froze.
Precisely, it was because of the breaking news at the bottom.
“Kang Nok Hyun was arrested?”
At that moment, the phone she had left on the floor rang. Tae In, still staring at the screen, picked up the phone and answered.
Did you see the news?
It was Lee Kyung.
“….I’m watching it.”
Tae In mumbled while still staring blankly at the screen.
Why was Kang Nok Hyun arrested on suspicion of murdering me?
Miss Seo Tae In, the executive will be released soon, so don’t worry too much and stay at home quietly. I can’t talk for long.
“Of course I need to get out, but how can I prove it?”
…We will take care of that, Ms. Seo Tae In, you just focus on eating well. Hang up.
The call was disconnected.
“In the midst of this, food really goes down well.”
Tae In served Stella her food and water.
She tried to remain calm, but her hand shook, spilling the food on the floor.
Stella ran toward her rapidly.
“You must have been hungry.”
Stella didn’t even look at the food, but licked Tae In’s trembling hand.
It felt like she was asking if everything was okay, and Tae In almost cried.
“After all, he’s a secondgeneration conglomerate, the conglomerates usually get out quickly. The most unnecessary worries are about celebrities and conglomerates.”
Tae In nodded grimly and opened the refrigerator door.
The refrigerator was filled with side dishes and food.
When Tae In had difficulty remembering, Lee Kyung hired a person.
While Tae In hid in the room, that employee visited three times a week, cleaned the house and prepared food.
His cooking skills were good, so Tae In lived well without worrying about meals.
Tae In, who was about to get the food, closed the refrigerator door again.
“But Kang Nok Hyun is not just a conglomerate, he’s my husband.”
My husband is someone I should protect.
Tae In sat on the sofa with her phone. She opened an internet window and searched for Doctor Ji Eun Seok.
[Men’s pride, we will take responsibility and protect.]Beneath the phrase, Eun Seok was showing his teeth and smiling.
“He was more famous than me.”
Tae In immediately called the hospital.
Good morning, urology clinic.
“Hello, I’d like to speak with the director.”
May I ask your name?
“If you tell him it’s Seo Tae In, he’ll know.”
Tae In spoke her name without hesitation.
Today, Tae In intended to reclaim her name.
Ms. Seo Tae In?
“I’m sorry to bother you, I’m calling because of my husband.”
…Ah, I found out a while ago too.
“It’s a difficult situation, isn’t it?”
It’s not much of a worry as long as Ms. Seo Tae In is alive, but the problem is…
Male lead reborn without memories — but he still falls for her.
The person he finds displeasing in this life turns out to be his cherished wife-master in previous life…
Xie Zhi and Fang Xianxing who had known each other for less than three days through a blind date sat in the same car in front of the civil affairs bureau. They had a disagreement and failed to get married.
Xie Zhi immediately took out his phone, slid through his contacts, and randomly selected the next marriage candidate.
The woman snatched his phone and hung up. Looking at his phone wallpaper, she awkwardly changed the subject: “An ancient painting, eh? It looks pretty good, it’s just that the person in the painting looks a bit like me.”
When he heard this, he sarcastically mocked her for being so delusional, completely unaware that, the person in front of him was the reincarnation of Wen Ru, the famous prime minister of Yuan Shun whom he most admired…
