Whether it was because Chaeyoon saw that the rumor was spreading due to her holding hands with Jae-oh or for another reason, she remained indifferent for now.
“What’s suddenly going on?”
“Miss Chaeyoon, yesterday, holding hands with a certain manager wasn’t just for fun. It’s really chaotic now.”
It seemed she was indeed seen holding hands with him yesterday.
Chaeyoon pondered for a moment on how to respond to the reason behind the rumor she had just discovered.
In the meantime, speech bubbles popped up one after another.
“Miss Chaeyoon, no matter what, that’s one married manager.”
“Or did his wife cheat on him, and he’s meeting you because he’s getting a divorce?”
Without giving her a chance to respond, she saw consecutive messages, and Chaeyoon squinted her eyes.
‘Getting divorced because of infidelity…’

That phrase started to lead her thoughts in a different direction.
The reason she had hidden the fact that she was married was because she had been considering divorce.
However, now that there was no need to hide the truth, there was no problem in stating it. Yet, she hesitated because of what happened with Kyunghee.
[I also heard this from a close acquaintance, so I don’t know exactly where this rumor came from, but isn’t it just groundless?]The rumor about Jae-oh’s wife cheating that Kyunghee told her, and the photo that Jae-oh showed her.
The photo, except for Eunha’s figure, was missing. Chaeyoon thought that the photo might not have originated from Kyunghee directly, but she didn’t directly ask Jae-oh where the photo came from.
Until yesterday morning, it was impossible to think that Kyunghee had spread rumors about her or had anything to do with her.
But now, things were different after she brought up the topic of divorce with Jae-oh.
Things that she had easily brushed off were starting to feel significant.
Among them, the presence of the man she saw when she met Kyunghee after canceling the appointment with Jae-oh gave strength to the assumption that Kyunghee might have assigned someone.

Kyunghee, who usually preferred secluded spaces when meeting someone, was sitting in a spacious hall that day.
Immediately after their conversation ended, without even eating, she left the seat and then the man appeared.
The man knew that she frequented that place and even mentioned that he was about to get a divorce.
“Oh? I see you again.”
“…”
“Did you make the right decision to get a divorce?”
Is this all just a coincidence?
It could be a coincidence, but Chaeyoon felt that it was more likely not.
The reason was that Jae-oh was conspicuously absent from the place where the man appeared.
If Jae-oh hadn’t shown up when she first met the man, she and the man would have been captured in the same frame, just like the photo that was taken with Hyunmin.

Since Hyunmin was meeting Eunha, a three-person meeting could resolve any misunderstandings, but…
The chain of thoughts that had been linked one after another suddenly came to a halt.
With the abrupt mention of Hyunmin’s dispatch, a slight tremor appeared in Chaeyoon’s eyes.
[“The headquarters director told me to go to the U.S. as a promotion condition, but I’m not going.”]At that time, Chaeyoon had found it strange to hastily send someone on a dispatch with promotion as a condition, but she didn’t think deeply about it, wondering what the reason might be.
But now she understood.
‘He sent me away hoping the misunderstanding wouldn’t be resolved quickly.’
That way, he could proceed with the divorce.
A shocked gleam appeared in her eyes as the realization dawned on her.
Chaeyoon was so surprised that she instinctively covered her mouth with her hand.

Until now, it had been mere suspicion, but Hyunmin’s dispatch confirmed it.
The person who orchestrated all this was Kyunghee.
It couldn’t be anyone other than Kyunghee.
She could check how things were between Jae-oh and her, and the only person in a position to make the executive director move was Kyunghee.
Without any mental preparation, Chaeyoon’s body started to tremble slightly in the face of the reality she suddenly encountered.
The person who attached someone to her even before she brought up the divorce, manipulated a photo with Hyunmin, and even attached a man to make Jae-oh divorce her was none other than Kyunghee.
“Ha, it can’t be.”
[Jae-oh might treat you coldly, but there’s no one else who will take care of you like Jungwoong. Do you know what ‘stepfather’ means?]For Jipil to say such things, and for someone who always treated Jae-oh affectionately to be like this…
“What? What are you talking about?”

Chaeyoon, surprised at my divorce decision, and the kind smile Kyunghee gave me, both images came to my mind successively, and Chaeyoon closed her eyes tightly.
It was terrifying.
How could a person be like that?
