Seungae’s focus was on the money Yuna would provide. Every time Hyungjin calmly bounced his confidence, Seungae was agitated.
In a situation where there was no hole to get money from, they had to somehow extract money.
Even Hyunyoung, who Yuna trusted, and Taekyung, didn’t yield to Hyungjin’s threats. Now, Yuna was the only source of money.
“Three checks. This is the money you’ll give when Kim Seoha and the child are sent out of Korea. If I marry Mr. Taekyung, I’ll give you additional compensation.”
“As a down payment, let’s give two checks in advance. That way, we can prepare for the operation, right?”
Yuna replied with an unruffled expression.
“No, one check. I’ll lend you one of my villas, so hide Kim Seoha and the child there until they leave the country.”
“Fine. Well, the down payment is a bit low, but I’ll make an exception for you.”
“If I’m going to marry Mr. Taekyung, it might take some time, so if you want more money, you need to plan it carefully.”
“Don’t worry about that. Prepare, and contact us when you’re ready to proceed with the operation.”
Hyungjin smiled contentedly. At most, it was just one woman and one child. It would be enough to take them abroad and leave them.
“How can I trust you?”
“We’re partners now. If you can’t trust your partner, you won’t be able to work together.”
Hyungjin let out a sarcastic laugh.
Yuna had secretly placed a camera on the table, which was still recording. If these people didn’t have evidence, they might try to shift all the blame onto her when things went wrong.
The moment this video is released, Hyungjin won’t be able to turn away from her. Even in the worst-case scenario, Yuna won’t bear the punishment alone.
“Remember that everything you said is recorded. Don’t think about tricks.”
“Haha, you’re a cunning lady. Okay. I’m not such a bad guy just because I’m doing this.”
Hyungjin either knew or didn’t know Yuna’s intentions and just let out an unpleasant laugh.
Yuna gestured to Seungae.
“All, am I included too? Why me?”
“So, should I send all the commission fees to the man?”
“Wh-where is that?”
“Then, we’re doing this together, right?”
“Okay, got it.”
Seungae reluctantly nodded in response to Yuna’s words.
Yuna found it amusing how Seungae, who was anxious and lusting after money, looked.
Holding the hidden camera again, Yuna smiled and said, “Please handle it as quickly as possible.”
“Your temper is urgent. How can I do such an important task hastily?”
“Although we shouldn’t handle this matter carelessly, dragging it out for too long isn’t good either.”
“Anyway, don’t rush me. As the down payment comes in, I’ll prepare accordingly.”
Yuna bit her lip. Watching these two who only cared about money, she felt disgusted.
After Hyungjin and Seungae left, Yuna checked the recorded video of the camera.
Hyungjin, Seungae, and Yuna’s figures partially appeared, and their voices were clearly captured.
Yuna put the camera into her bag with a meaningful expression.

Seoha lay beside Minjun to put him to sleep. Minjun lay with his head on Seoha’s arm. Since the nightmare two nights ago, Minjun became more afraid of sleeping alone and clung more tightly to Seoha.
Seoha brushed Minjun’s hair and asked gently,
“Minjun, what did you do and play at kindergarten today?”
“I folded mini-cars. And we watched a play for abduction prevention education.”
“Abduction prevention education?”
“Yeah! They said we shouldn’t follow anyone!”
“Oh, so it was education about preventing kidnappings?”
“Yeah. They said there might be bad people. And if we get lost, we have to freeze right there. Then, Mom can find me. Or we should ask the police or people in nearby stores for help!”
Minjun spoke with round, bright eyes, seemingly without much thought.
As a smart child, he remembered well what he learned at kindergarten.
“If someone else comes and says they’ll take Minjun to Mom, what should you do?”
“Then, I have to say no and wait until Mom comes.”
“Our Minjun knows very well, right? You listened well to the teacher at kindergarten. You’re an excellent child.”
Seoha hugged Minjun tightly. Minjun also hugged Seoha tightly with his small fern-like hands.
My beloved child. When did he grow this much?
Minjun, whether aware or not of Seoha’s overwhelmed heart, was excitedly sharing what he had learned.
“And Mom, if unfamiliar adults ask for help, we shouldn’t help them. At that time, we should say, ‘Ask other adults for help.'”
“Right. Adults are taller and stronger than Minjun, so there’s hardly a case where they’d ask for Minjun’s help. Well done. Remember, don’t accept things from strangers, and don’t follow them. Okay?”
“Yeah! I know.”
Minjun answered bravely. Seoha patted Minjun’s head and kissed his forehead.
“Our son, it’s time to sleep now. You have to go to kindergarten again tomorrow.”
“Mom, good night.”
“Good night, my son.”
Minjun closed his eyes tightly and snuggled into Seoha’s embrace. Seoha stroked Minjun’s back and sang a lullaby.
My Step-brother Is Obsessed With Me (Female-dominant)
A gentle female protagonist vs pitiful in the early stage, and a sick male protagonist in the later stage
Cheng Songer transmigrated into the body of a vicious cannon fodder female supporting character with the same name as her in a female-dominant novel.
In the original story, the cannon fodder female supporting character was inhumane, committing domestic violence, gambling excessively, being lustful, and even wanting to sell her stepbrother to a brothel for money.
As luck would have it, she just happened to transmigrate at this time.
Seeing Cheng Qingzhi biting his lip, enduring the tears in his eyes, looking pitiful, her heart softened.
She stuffed the money back into the Madam’s hand and reached out to him.
“Brother, come home with me.”
