Tae In was as stiff as a stone at the conspicuous rumbling sound.

Why is this happening, Seo Tae In? You’re someone who’s oblivious to things like hunger.

Hungry in this situation? Are you sane?

“It’s not me.”
Tae In said, still with her back towards Nok Hyun and Arin.

It was a blatant lie.

“Uh, sister. It seems like you’re hungry. Just eat.”
“No, it’s not me. I said it’s not me!”
Nok Hyun had an indifferent expression, as if someone had said something.

In contrast, Tae In’s face was blazing like a ruby.

“Just deny it and eat with us.”
“It’s really not me!”
When Tae In raised her voice, her face blushing, Nok Hyun chuckled.

“I’m eating out of respect for the lady’s kindness. As you know, I value courtesy.”
Despite a clueless expression, Nok Hyun said nothing more, and Tae In sat down, feeling like she wanted to cry.

Nok Hyun, as if he had been waiting, placed meat in front of Tae In.

Tae In hesitated and then put the meat in her mouth.

The moment it was in her mouth, it melted and disappeared. It was so incredibly delicious that it made her want to cry.

Only then did Tae In realize she hadn’t been eating properly since she went back home.

Tae In decided to eat just enough to survive.

However, all the food was delicious, and Tae In started eating properly.

After finishing a large amount of food and desserts, Tae In returned to a rational state.

Arin seemed to like Stella, following her everywhere, and Stella trailed behind Tae In.

“I’m sorry for being so irresponsible after bringing you here.”
Tae In apologized to Stella with sincerity.

After regaining my memories, I realized for the first time that I was such an irresponsible and incapable person.

She was worried whether it was right to impulsively bring Arin and Stella without having the capability to handle them.

“Let Arin and Stella play, we have things to discuss, don’t we?”
Nok Hyun, who was watching the three from the couch, suddenly said.

Tae In slowly nodded.

“Let’s go to the study.”
Tae In seemed about to say something, but then gave up and headed towards Nok Hyun’s study.

The bookshelf was packed with books without a single gap and a round wooden table was in front of it.

When Nok Hyun stayed up all night at the company, Tae In would come here and secretly read books.

Although they were boring and difficult books, it was somehow interesting and a bit fun thinking that Nok Hyun chose and read them.

Tae In sat down in front of the wooden table and waited for Nok Hyun.

Soon, Nok Hyun brought in the tea. It was a flowerscented black tea, which Tae In, who didn’t enjoy coffee, liked.

Tae In took a sip of the moderately warm tea. Her anxious heart seemed to be settling down a bit.

Nok Hyun asked Tae In to think about what would be more beneficial.

Tae In had already finished thinking. However, she didn’t know how to bring it up.

Tae In exhaled deeply, then spoke up.

“Honestly, I’ll tell you straight.”
“Go ahead.”
“All my stocks and assets have already been taken, and I’ve given up all rights to my home and company. In other words, I’m practically penniless.”
“What a shame.”
“Furthermore, I haven’t found a place to live yet.”
“Stay here.”
Tae In tilted her head.

Is he permitting this so easily?

“But you can’t divorce.”
I knew it would be like this.

“You agreed back then.”
“I changed my mind.”
Tae In bit her lower lip softly.

Regardless of her feelings for Nok Hyun, she was unsure about his.

The Nok Hyun that Tae In knew was a strategist, as addicted to work as she was.

He could ruthlessly cut off anyone who interfered with his work, and he would use anyone who was useful to him, no matter who they were.

To Nok Hyun, Tae In, who had lost her memory, must have been a thorn in his side.

Tae In had agreed to marry Nok Hyun on the condition that she become the CEO of Taegang and hand over her shares.

Nok Hyun had agreed to help Tae In become CEO.

If you look at the results, his investment had failed spectacularly.

Once Tae In became useless, he probably thought it was only a matter of time before he discarded her.

That’s why he could easily suggest a divorce.

“Tae In.”
Her name, spoken in a voice that was sweet yet firm, pulled Tae In out of her thoughts.

When Tae In lifted her head, Nok Hyun continued speaking.

“You’re bound to ask for a divorce again when you regain your memory. Do you think I wouldn’t have prepared for this?”
Tae In’s eyes trembled slightly.

Nok Hyun reached out his arm to Tae In. For a moment, Tae In held her breath. Nok Hyun smirked, then pulled out a document envelope from the bookshelf behind her.

“Do the family know you’ve regained your memory?”
“No, only Arin knows.”
“Well done.”
Nok Hyun handed the document envelope to Tae In.

“What is this?”
“Evidence of will tampering and footage of the faces of the people who were at the factory at the time of the accident.”
“There was CCTV footage?”
Tae In looked incredulous. Those people wouldn’t leave something like that behind.
