And in March, like the heralds of spring, the twin daughters arrived for them.
The names of the daughters, who resembled Chaeha and Seolwon in equal measure, were ‘Haneul’ and ‘Gureum.’
On the day the daughters were born, every member of the Chaeun family became a crybaby.
Even the renowned tiger, Gwanggangho, snatched his wife’s handkerchief, so strict was the atmosphere.
Uju, Haneul, and Gureum.
The nose of Chaeha, who became the father of these three lovely children, soared endlessly.
Secretary Jung said it wasn’t that extreme even when he was promoted to vice president.
Holding the children in his arms at once, Chaeha acted as if he had everything in the world.
And as expected, his attitude resulted in an intense and persistent morning sickness.
“Now, the playground on the rooftop is complete!”
“…Already?”
Chaeha, with gloves on, was covered in dust, indicating how diligently he had worked since morning.
It seemed like he had almost become a carpenter.
Following him, Uju came in with wooden planks, also covered in dust.
“Mom, Dad made a really, really fantastic playground! There’s a slide, a swing, and Uju’s favorite seesaw. It’s much better than the daycare playground!”
Given the generous investment, it was expected that they could afford such things.
It was impossible for the newborn twins to play in that playground.
Of course, saying such things aloud was not allowed.
If Chaeha seemed overly excited, Seolwon tried to control herself somehow, but seeing Uju’s sparkling eyes, she couldn’t bring herself to say anything.
“I’ve upgraded the swing we made in the field. Later, let’s go up together and try it. It’s very well made.”
“Yeah! Dad’s made swing is so, so fun!”
“I also made a dome-shaped ceiling that can be opened and closed like on a temporary daycare outing. Director Jung will deliver it.”
“Wow! Uju, I can’t wait!”
There was no gap for Seolwon to intervene in this back-and-forth conversation.
“Now, shall we start decorating the rooms?”
“Yeah! Uju will decorate the twins’ room too!”
“Stop, stop. That’s enough now.”
Seolwon finally managed to stop the unstoppable wealthy man who was going upstairs without hesitation, removing his gloves.
If she didn’t stop him, the twins they had carefully put to sleep would undoubtedly wake up.
Looking at the two who were looking at her with endlessly puzzled eyes, she let out a small sigh.
“It’s okay to have a playground they can’t even play on yet because Uju is here. But babies have to sleep in our room until they’re a little bigger. In other words, there’s no need to decorate the room already.”
Already overwhelmed with baby products piled up like a mountain, if they started decorating the room, there would undoubtedly be more things lacking.
And with the excess enthusiasm of the wealthy man, there would be an overflow of childcare items.
It had to be stopped before such a situation arose.
“Hmm, already…”
Seolwon’s logical argument seemed to make Chaeha lost in thought for a moment.
However, the conclusion of that thought was not in the direction Seolwon desired.
With a very confident tone, he countered, “Anything requires thorough preparation. Both business and parenting.”
“Chaeha, aren’t you supposed to be working? You took a day off yesterday and today to decorate the house.”
“Is there anything more important than this? The saying ‘family comes first’ isn’t for nothing. Honey, it’s all for you and our children….”
In the end, Seolwon lost again.
He was a man sincerely devoted to parenting. Sincerely devoted to preparation.
Quietly, Seolwon approached the door, muffling her footsteps.
Fortunately, thanks to the deeply sleeping twins, she had the luxury of this covert operation.
‘A virtual meeting…’
Careful not to be noticed even by a shadow, Seolwon, with her head peeking through the slightly open study door, listened intently.
Since the birth of the twins, Chaeha had spent much more time at home.
While he was undoubtedly an excellent vice president, there was still concern that he might neglect his work.
So, Seolwon planned to check for herself.
Whether the group in Chaeha’s mind was still firmly in place.
The moment she saw Chaeha, dressed seriously in a suit, engaged in the meeting, those worries vanished instantly.
He was perfect to the extent that it could be considered Chaeha’s conference room rather than just a study.
Chaeha’s Crown Prince was indeed a Crown Prince.
“Phew…”
Before the sigh of relief could escape on its own, Chaeha glanced in her direction.
In the moment Seolwon, surprised, tried to escape, the door opened.
“Where are you running off to?”
“Chaeha, there’s a meeting…”
“It just ended. You appeared at the perfect timing.”
“Ah…”
As he said, the monitor was now off.
In the silent air of the study, it suddenly felt like his refreshing scent was spreading.
Whether they shared the same thought or not, Chaeha pulled her into the study with a swift motion, firmly closing the door.
Then, lowering his lips, he whispered.
Turns Out He’s Been Secretly in Love with Me
