Recognizing the caller as Jae-O, Chae-Yoon answered the call.
“Hello?”
[Dash]Come out.His first words on the call, demanding her to come out, were abrupt.
The tone of his voice didn’t sound pleasant either, making Chae-Yoon cautiously respond.
“What do you mean all of a sudden?”
[Dash]I’m at your office right now, so come out.His voice was harsh, but Chae-Yoon, surprised to hear that Jae-O was at her office, failed to notice his displeasure.
Her startled mind was only curious about his reason for being there.
“What brings you here…”
She tried to ask, but the call had already been disconnected.
Chae-Yoon stared at the disconnected call screen for a moment.
Unsure of his reason for coming, but knowing that it would complicate matters if he entered the office, she decided to meet him. She glanced around the team area and quietly left the office.
“Ma’am.”
The person waiting for her was not Jae-O but Woo-Jong.
“Director Jae-O is waiting over there.”
Seeing Woo-Jong’s face, Chae-Yoon felt relieved. She had been worried about other people seeing her with Jae-O. She followed Woo-Jong, her heart easing.
Jae-O was in a small meeting room, a short distance from the office, looking rather gloomy.
‘Why does he look so upset?’
She wondered if it was because of their divorce discussion that morning. However, his coldness seemed even more intense than before, making Chae-Yoon somewhat nervous as she took a seat in front of him.
As she sat down, Jae-O wordlessly handed her a photo envelope.
Looking at the envelope placed carelessly in front of her, Chae-Yoon raised her eyes to meet Jae-O’s.
“What’s this?”
“Look.”
Hearing his cold voice matching his dark expression, Chae-Yoon checked inside the envelope.
A photograph held in her delicate hand.
Seeing her own image in the photo, Chae-Yoon’s eyes widened in shock.
“…”
While she was startled by the photo, Jae-O recalled the report he had received from Woo-Jong before coming here.
[Hyun-Min Im. He’s thirty, with a good reputation at work.]
It wasn’t hard for Jae-O to learn about this man. Woo-Jong had mentioned that he was in the same team as Chae-Yoon.
Furthermore, Jae-O was certain that this man was the one who had taken Chae-Yoon home, the male voice he had heard over her phone.
The car he had seen in front of their house matched the one in the photo.
Pondering these thoughts, Woo-Jong added more information.
[From what I hear, he has been a great help to her since she joined.]Helping her in the same team…
‘Is this why they got close?’
Getting close while helping out, and then staying together…
‘Ah, this feels terrible. Really.’
As he dwelled on how feelings develop between a man and a woman, a sense of betrayal hit him like never before.
It was a new emotion for him, his head feeling hot, eyes sparking with anger. Lost in the whirlwind of emotions, only one
Chae-Yoon, recognizing Jae-O as the caller, answered the phone.
“Hello?”
[Dash]Come out.His abrupt command to come out, right off the bat, caught her off guard.
His tone sounded displeased, prompting Chae-Yoon to ask cautiously.
“What do you mean all of a sudden?”
[Dash]I’m right outside your office, so come out.His rough tone was evident, but Chae-Yoon, surprised to hear that Jae-O was right outside her office, couldn’t discern his level of upset.
Her startled mind was only curious about the reason for his presence.
“What brings you here…”
She attempted to ask, but realized the call had already ended.
Chae-Yoon stared at the ended call screen for a moment.
Unsure of his reason for visiting, but knowing it would complicate matters if he entered the office, she decided to step out. After glancing around the team area, she left the office quietly.
“Ma’am.”
Instead of Jae-O, it was Woo-Jong waiting for her.
“Director Jae-O is waiting for you over there.”
Relieved to see Woo-Jong instead of Jae-O, Chae-Yoon followed him, her heart settling down.
Jae-O was in a small meeting room, a bit away from the office, with a notably grim expression.
‘Why does he look so upset?’
She thought it might be due to their divorce conversation that morning, but his coldness seemed even more pronounced now, making Chae-Yoon slightly tense as she took a seat in front of him.
Once Chae-Yoon sat down, Jae-O wordlessly handed her a photo envelope.
Seeing the envelope placed without much care, Chae-Yoon looked up at Jae-O.
“What’s this?”
“Look at it.”
His dark mood was apparent in his voice. Chae-Yoon, feeling the chill in his tone, opened the envelope.
A photograph emerged in her slender hand.
Seeing herself in the photo, Chae-Yoon’s eyes widened in shock.
“…”
Jae-O, who had been watching her reaction, recalled the report Woo-Jong gave him before coming here.
[Hyun-Min Im. He’s thirty, well-reputed at work.]
It wasn’t hard to find out about this man. Woo-Jong mentioned he was on the same team as Chae-Yoon.
