“Argh! So annoying!”
After sending Heo Young Joo, who insisted on coming with her, off first, Baek Sara pounded her car’s steering wheel till it seemed like it might break.
The nail parts, shining from the tips of her fingernails, fell to the floor, but she couldn’t be bothered to care.
The sight of the two people she had seen earlier at Chae Ha’s house was grating on her nerves like grains of sand in her eyes.
Min Seol Won, that woman, and presumably, Kwon Chae Ha’s child.
She tried so hard not to see them, but alas, this day had finally come.
“What? You don’t remember?”
Recalling what Seol Won said earlier, Baek Sara sneered.
Even if Kwon Chae Ha didn’t know, she knew the truth.
Unlike what the public knew, Min Seol Won didn’t really fall into the sea.
So there was no reason for her to be ill or lose her memory.
But she would never have thought that she would pretend to lose her memory and come back like this.
“Sigh…”
The thought of Kwon Chae Ha’s gaze when he looked at Seol Won earlier made her seethe with irritation.
How did she get this far, almost there!

Baek Sara, who had pressured Chae Un with the Baek Young group and slowly boiled Heo Young Joo, was just about to finalize the marriage with Chae Ha.
But that detestable woman appeared again, it was no different from five years ago.
Hadn’t that mixedblood Min Seol Won appeared and ruined her life when she was about to marry?
“Min Seol Won… Just you wait. Dare to block my path again?”
The faint smell of blood wafted from her lips as she bit down in anger.
She had generously given her a chance to run away, but Min Seol Won was the one who broke the promise first.
Since it’s come to this, she was determined to thoroughly get rid of her this time.
“Are you okay? You seemed quite startled.”
“…I’m fine. I should go and see Woo Joo now.”
Gently stepping back from the approaching Chae Ha, Seol Won quickly put some distance between them.
Since she had pretended not to know them, there was no need to talk about the unwelcome guests earlier.
At any rate, Seol Won was determined to remain ‘amnesic’ in front of them.
Even if there was, it wasn’t a story she could tell him.

Moreover, beyond Chae Ha’s discomfort, Seol Won was also extremely uncomfortable with those two.
She expected to encounter them someday once she decided to come back here, but she didn’t expect it to be today.
As she did to me, it was obvious that Heo Young Joo would see Woo Joo, who had her blood running in him, as an eyesore.
So much so, she wanted to keep Woo Joo out of sight as much as possible…
Chae Ha glanced at her expression and naturally changed the subject.
“Why don’t we eat dinner together? I…”
“No.”
Seol Won cut off Chae Ha’s words decisively.
No matter what he suggested, now was not the time for them to be eating together cheerfully.
“I had snacks with Woo Joo before I came. I also brought snacks for Woo Joo to eat.”
“Alright. Then go to your room and rest early.”
Chae Ha, looking a bit embarrassed, made a gesture to return to the room.
However, this time Seol Won shook her head more firmly.
“No, I’ll share the room with Wooju.”
“It’s tight in there.”
“It is tight. But it’s three times bigger than the room I used to live in. There were bunk beds when I looked earlier.”
“Hmm…”
Kwon Chae Ha, who clearly realized she was refusing to share a room with him, grumbled roughly.
He then systematically refuted her.
“At that age, you should be able to sleep alone.”
“Wooju has never slept alone before.”
“Then it’s good. This time, he can sleep alone.”
“No, Wooju is easily scared.”
“He didn’t seem to be.”
“Regardless, it’s not possible.”
At the firm attitude of Min Seol Won, Chae Ha exhaled a soft breath again.
No matter what he said to tempt her, she was not going to sleep in my bed that night.

With no other choice, Chae Ha decided to step back a bit.
Due to the storm that just swept away, Seol Won probably needed a bit of stability.
“Okay. Then I will negotiate separately with Wooju later.”
“…”
“Get some rest. In that cramped bunk bed.”
With some mysterious words that felt like a hidden grudge, Chae Ha casually disappeared into his room.
Seol Won, who had been watching his back, let out a quiet sigh that he wouldn’t hear and moved her steps.
That night, Wooju, who played with every toy in the room, fell into a deep sleep.
On the other hand, Seol Won couldn’t sleep for a long time.
She couldn’t see any sign of sleep coming, despite the familiar, soft breathing sound coming from the other side of the bed.
Perhaps it was only natural.
She was now by Chae Ha’s side, in Chae Un’s house, a place she thought would never return.
Thinking about it, it was a marriage with a clear purpose from the start.
She had no expectations of married life with him from the start, and that’s why it was enough to be faithful to the roles they both promised.

However, the three years slowly caused a crack in Seol Won’s heart, and in the end, the existence named Kwon Chae Ha deeply penetrated between those cracks.
