A few days ago.
Chaeyoon, who returned to her seat, postponing the promise with Kyunghi, headed to Jaeyo’s home office.
Upon knocking and entering, Jaeyo, engaged in a conversation with Woojong, became visible.
“Yes. It seems he went abroad.”
Seeing Jaeyo, who appeared lightly affected by Woojong’s words, Chaeyoon involuntarily swallowed dry saliva.
Even though she hadn’t done anything wrong, it seemed like she was nervous because she had something to say.
Chaeyoon took a deep breath and approached Jaeyo.
It seemed like he was engrossed in thinking about something, as he didn’t notice her approaching.
“Oh? Madam.”
At Woojong’s words, Jaeyo’s gaze instantly turned towards Chaeyoon.

Seeing Chaeyoon, Jaeyo, as if asking when she got so imposing, put a smile on his face and straightened up.
“Why.”
Chaeyoon felt tension from Jaeyo’s smile.
“Are you busy?”
Seeing Jaeyo looking as if he had something to say, he tilted his head slightly and replied, “No.”
When Jaeyo, who had risen from his seat, gestured for Woojong to leave, Woojong bowed slightly to Chaeyoon before leaving.
Chaeyoon fixed her gaze on Woojong’s retreating figure.
‘Of course, he must have told him.’
Since he had waited to speak about the accident, the person who had already told Jaeyo everything about the incident, including the situation with the other guy, must have been that man. If that’s the case, there was no need to detain Woojong here, but an unpleasant voice stuck in her ears.
“I’m not fond of how your gaze lingers.”

Looking at where Woojong disappeared, Chaeyoon turned her head to look at Jaeyo.
In the changed perspective, the soft smile on Han Jaeyo’s face was nowhere to be seen.
“I’m right here; why are you staring at something like that?”
Tilting her head slightly, Chaeyoon looked down at him.
Jaeyo, who was looking up at her with a twisted smile, spoke, “What.”
Chaeyoon felt tension returning with Jaeyo’s smile.
“Busy?”
Seeing Jaeyo looking as if he had something to say, he tilted his head slightly and replied, “No.”
When Jaeyo, who had risen from his seat, gestured for Woojong to leave, Woojong bowed slightly to Chaeyoon before leaving.
Chaeyoon fixed her gaze on Woojong’s retreating figure.

In that moment, the slender tips of the gracefully extended eyes subtly narrowed.
Jaeyo, who had been silently observing Chaeyoon sitting beside him, didn’t hesitate any longer. Instead, he reached out towards Chaeyoon.
The feeling of pleasant hair brushed between his fingers.
The soft texture and the faint fragrance that gently wafted through the air somewhat relieved the lingering disappointment.
Thinking that this wasn’t bad either, Jaeyo opened his mouth.
“If you have something to say, go ahead.”
When Jaeyo facilitated the flow of conversation, Chaeyoon, after sealing her lips once, brought up what she wanted to say.
“Do you know the contact information of the man involved in the accident with me last time, Oppa?”
Jaeyo’s hand hesitated, froze.

Until just before going to work, his gaze had been focused on the delicate neckline buried in his nose. Now, he moved his eyes and looked directly at Chaeyoon, who was staring at him intently.
“Why?”
“I think I need to meet that man at least once.”
The ends of his thick eyebrows twitched subtly.
Jaeyo withdrew the hand that had been touching Chaeyoon’s head and stared directly at her.
“Why.”
“That man is the one I saw when you broke the promise with Oppa before.”
This was a fact known only to Jaeyo and her.
Woojong, who wasn’t present at that moment, couldn’t know the details, so why didn’t Jaeyo seem so surprised?
Amidst a slight doubt, Jaeyo’s voice rang out.

“Does that become a reason for you to meet that man?”
Asking for the fundamental reason, Chaeyoon pursed her dry lips and asked about the photo.
“The photo of me and Director Lim that was taken together, who gave it to you?”
“Grandfather.”
“Do you know who gave it to Grandfather?”
Before seeing the photo of Chaeyoon and Hyunmin, thinking about the figure of Kyunghee leaving the Jipil’s office, Jaeyo, who answered calmly, asked curiously.
“I hadn’t asked that far.”
“In my opinion, Granny probably gave that photo to Grandfather.”
For a moment, interest sparked in Jaeyo’s eyes as he looked at Chaeyoon.
“Why do you think that way?”

“Granny hopes that I will divorce Oppa.”
Without hesitation, hearing the immediate answer, Jaeyo folded his arms over the back of the sofa and rubbed his head with his hands.
“Go on.”
“Do you remember the day Oppa first invited me to have dinner?”
“Yeah.”
“When I canceled the appointment with Oppa at that time and met Granny, that man appeared as soon as Granny left. And then, I met that man again as the driver who caused the contact accident at the last agreement ceremony.”
Ex-husband Wants Reconciliation
One-line summary: Chasing the wife to the crematorium (making an effort to attract someone who has become indifferent), the female lead doesn’t look back, the second male lead takes the position.
Intro:
To repay the kindness of the older generation, Su Mu crossed into a female-dominated world and became a live-in daughter-in-law of the Yan family, single-handedly saving the Yan family from fire and water.
But her husband, Yan Jiyue, the eldest son of the Yan family, treated her with sarcasm and never showed her a good face.
It wasn’t until after Su Mu’s death that this pampered and arrogant young master shed a few fake tears and pretended to want to die for love.
This life’s kindness was enough. If there was a next life, she would definitely kick Yan Jiyue away.
Who knew that the heavens would be so kind as to allow her to be reborn, returning to the time when she had just married into the Yan family.
Su Mu glanced at the Yan eldest son, who still spoke coldly to her, and threw a divorce letter in front of him.
“Let’s divorce!”
***
Yan Jiyue never imagined that he would be reborn. He happily went to find Su Mu, wanting to make up for the mistakes he had made in his ignorant youth.
Wasn’t the reason the heavens allowed him to be reborn to let him reconcile with Su Mu?
But when he pushed open the door to Su Mu’s room, the person lying on the bed was another man.
Su Mu’s personal attendant, Xie Yi.
Yan Jiyue hated him so much that his teeth itched. In front of Su Mu, Xie Yi was a gentle and considerate whisperer of sweet nothings, but in reality, he was vicious-hearted and deliberately sabotaged their husband and wife relationship.
In the previous life, it was he who secretly hid in Su Mu’s coffin and committed suicide, stealing a step ahead of him to be buried with Su Mu.
Yan Jiyue’s eyes were filled with hatred as he cursed, “What kind of thing are you? Your background is lowly, what right do you have to occupy Su Mu?”
Xie Yi looked at the sleeping Su Mu and no longer pretended to be a whisperer of sweet nothings.
He proudly stuck out his belly, “I have the right because my belly is capable of giving the Wife-master a daughter.”
***
Yan Jiyue was consumed with jealousy. He spread rumors that Xie Yi had once been branded with the mark of a “harlot” on his chest.
But on the night Xie Yi cut off the flesh bearing that mark, Su Mu suddenly realized something was amiss.
“How did you know the exact moment I was poisoned? And why did you show up a month early?”
Xie Yi remained silent, blood from his wound soaking through his robes. His sapphire eyes brimmed with anguish – or was it just a flawless act?
Between a once-arrogant husband now seeking redemption, and a gentle soul willing to die for her – who truly held the darkest secrets? And could it be that Su Mu and Yan Jiyue weren’t the only ones given a second chance at life…?
