Ziing.
A short vibration came from the cellphone.
Waiting for Kyung Hee’s call, Ho Yeon quickly checked her phone.
「If you bother Jae Oh like this, he might take the business back, so wait for a while.」
Ho Yeon’s face crumpled with displeasure.
“How long do they expect me to wait?”
The time she had already waited was long enough. And again.
“Ugh…”
A frustrated sigh escaped Ho Yeon’s lips.
Although the business handover was an associated matter and wouldn’t drag on forever, she had already seen the contract drafted by Chae Yoon and Jae Oh.

She felt she needed to drive a wedge between the two before a month was up.
Feeling impatient, Ho Yeon began brainstorming solutions.
If Chae Yoon had the decision power for the divorce, targeting Chae Yoon rather than Jae Oh seemed more feasible.
For that, she needed something to sway Chae Yoon’s heart.
If it were a man, it would be perfect, but Chae Yoon was as loyal to Jae Oh as he was to her.
Then the only option left was opposition from the family…
“I need to heed their words to take action.”
Remembering Jae Oh, who never listened to anyone, a frustrated sigh left her lips.
As long as Han Jae Oh’s personality doesn’t change overnight, it seemed best to introduce a man to Song Chae Yoon.
With her mind made up, Ho Yeon immediately made a call.

The man who answered was the one she had hired not long ago to sway Chae Yoon’s heart. A wasted expense because of the unexpected appearance of Jae Oh.
“Do you remember Song Chae Yoon?”
[Dash] Song Chae Yoon…? Oh, yes. I remember.“I’ll pay you double this time. Do whatever it takes to win Song Chae Yoon’s heart.”
[Dash] What? Is she still considering a divorce? It didn’t seem that way.Irritated by his prying, Ho Yeon shot back.
“That’s none of your business. Just do as you’re told.”
Sensing Ho Yeon’s displeasure, the man quickly responded.
[Dash] When should I start?ads
Ho Yeon mentioned she would get in touch and hung up.
She then delved into the schedule sent from Jae Oh’s secretary.
Currently, wherever Jae Oh went, he took Chae Yoon with him.
And rumors about them circulated without her even trying to eavesdrop.
[Isn’t this the first time VP Han Jae Oh has been seen with a female secretary?] [I heard they’re divorcing soon. Is it because of her?] [Seems like it. The atmosphere was unusual.]Impatience welled up in Ho Yeon, her face souring.
‘There must be a time when they’re apart…’
With no signs of that happening, her frustration grew.

She examined Jae Oh’s packed schedule.
The moment an opportunity arises, she’d seize it.
Her determined eyes shone brightly.
[Star icon]Sitting in her chair, Chae Yoon intently observed a small gift box, her chin resting on her hands.
One of her hands reached for the box.
Her delicate fingertips touched the earrings inside.
They were a gift from Jae Oh when he went out in the morning.
Since buying her an éclair once, he’d always bring her something whenever he went out.
Until yesterday, it had been food, but today, it was earrings.

The image of him, wearing the tie pin she gave and gifting her the earrings.
She wasn’t exactly sure why he was showering her with gifts, but from a conversation a few days ago, she had a glimpse into his heart.
[You’re kind and beautiful.] [The more I see you, the more I realize my inadequacies.]Since hearing that, she hadn’t discussed the topic with Jae Oh.
His plea to stop worrying about him made it hard for her to speak. And his somewhat subdued state after that day was the primary reason.
Chae Yoon’s fingertip grazed the earring once more.
‘Lacking…’
The only thing he lacked was a ‘heart’.
Jae Oh acknowledged that Chae Yoon held a special place in his heart. While he couldn’t precisely determine the depth of that sentiment, he knew it wasn’t something shallow.

Also, observing his demeanor, which seemed to prioritize her over his work, she occasionally thought, ‘Perhaps this man has some affection for me.’
Because she felt it.
His direct words and voice that didn’t hide emotions, the way he gazed at her, and even his facial expressions.
Whenever she looked at him, she felt an overwhelming desire to be by his side.
However, that was no longer the case now.
‘It’s not the indifference I felt before…’
As she tried to discern the change in the atmosphere, Woo Jong’s voice echoed from behind the partition.
“Ah, right now? Okay. Yes, I’ll consult with the executive director and get back to you.”
Seeing Woo Jong, with an urgent tone, entering Jae Oh’s office, Chae Yoon closed the gift box.
Curious about what was happening, she stepped into Jae Oh’s office, and their conversation reached her ears.

“Now?”
“Yes. The investor is saying they have to advance their departure schedule and would like to meet as soon as possible.”
While listening to their discussion, Chae Yoon approached Jae Oh, sensing the mood.
It seemed like a challenging situation.

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
[Although it’s inappropriate, I also want a young and handsome boyfriend to have my child.]
①Male pregnancy (highlighted)
