– I debated whether to tell you, but thought it’s better you hear it from me.
“Ah…”
– Really, won’t you tell Taekyung Senior about Minjun? He might even call off his engagement and come to you. Why sever the natural bond with Minjun’s real dad? Wouldn’t it be better to tell him now, for Minjun’s sake?
Hyojae’s words made sense.
Minjun and Taekyung are bound by blood, can that bond be broken by her will?
She feared Minjun might resent her for keeping this secret.
But she steeled her resolve. Minjun was the child Hyunyoung so desperately wanted to erase. Could she protect him if Hyunyoung found out?
It was better to keep it hidden.
“Whether that man marries or not, it’s a closed chapter for me.”
– Right. If your heart has moved on, you can’t meet just for the child’s sake.
Seoha’s heart fluttered uncontrollably.
A flicker of hope rose, but thinking back to what happened five years ago, she was filled with a fear so deep, her body trembled.
Seoha’s mother, Seungae, found out about Seoha’s pregnancy the day Seoha confirmed it at the gynecologist. Shocked by the unexpected pregnancy, Seoha returned home to find Seungae waiting for her.
Ever since Seoha went to college, Seungae seemed to view her as an ATM, always showing up to extort money.
“You’ve been working a lot of part-time jobs, haven’t you? You’re about to get a job, right? You should give your mother some allowance. Do you know how much I struggled to give birth to you!”
“I don’t have money to give you, Mom. You already took 300,000 won last time. My lease is ending soon, and with the increased rent, I can only afford to move into a goshiwon.”
“You just need to take care of yourself. I have a family to feed, so I need money!”
“That family isn’t mine!”
Seoha cried out in frustration.
She was tired of Seungae constantly coming to ask for money. If she didn’t give her the money, Seungae would go harass her father, Munhun. Seoha thought it would be better to give Seungae whatever little savings she had.
“Oh, you wicked girl! How can you speak to your mother like that? Give me your bag!”
Seungae tried to snatch Seoha’s bag forcibly. Seoha struggled to hold on, but couldn’t match Seungae’s strength. When Seungae yanked the bag, it flipped over, spilling its contents on the ground.
Among the scattered items, Seungae found the maternity booklet and her eyes widened in shock.
Seoha panicked and reached for it, but Seungae was quicker.
“Look at you, being sneaky. Are you pregnant? Whose is it? Don’t tell me it’s that rich guy’s!”
“Give it back! It’s mine!”
Seoha desperately clung to Seungae, who snorted and pushed her away.
“Of course, it is. Your name is right here. Pretending to be prim and proper, and in the end, you use your body to trap a rich man? Well, marrying a rich guy isn’t a bad idea.”
“Mom!”
Despite Seoha’s cries, Seungae rummaged through her wallet.
“Stop pretending. I’m taking this. It will come in handy. And carry some cash with you. How can your wallet have only a single ten thousand won note? It’s pathetic.”
Seungae threw Seoha’s wallet and bag to the ground, stuffing the ultrasound photo and the ten thousand won note into her own bag. She swaggered away, shaking her hefty hips.
Seoha collapsed right there, gathering her belongings and swallowing her tears. But tears were already overflowing from her eyes.
Feeling deeply hurt, she sat hunched over, silently crying for a long time.
Days later, Seungae came to visit Seoha again.
“Why are you here again? Came for money?”
Seoha instinctively shrank away.
“Shut up, and get dressed.”
“Where are we going?”
“We have a place to go. Stop talking and come along.”
“No!”
Seoha backed away from Seungae.
Seungae, relentless, dragged Seoha towards the gynecologist.
In the hospital lobby, Seungae and Seoha’s struggle drew the attention of others.
Worried more about protecting her unborn child, Seoha thought, “What are you going to do about the baby in your belly? Huh?”
“I’m going to raise it. I will! Let me go.”
“Raise it? Are you crazy? How can you? The chairman already said he won’t accept the child!”
“How can I give up on my baby? I can’t do that!”
Seungae’s grip was too strong for Seoha. She clutched her belly, feeling pain from the struggle.
Fearful that the baby might be harmed, Seoha fought through the pain.
Fortunately, a nurse saw the commotion and called security.
“No, I’m her mother!”
“You can’t do this here. Please leave.”
Seoha’s grip tightened as she feared for her baby. The altercation caused her to experience abdominal pain, making her worry about the baby’s well-being.
Two burly security guards arrived and grabbed Seungae from either side, pulling her away.
A nurse helped Seoha up, who had fallen and clutched her abdomen.
“Are you okay?”
“My stomach hurts…”
“First, get examined. Nurse Kim, is there no patient waiting for Doctor #7? Please register her there.”
Seoha, pale-faced and sweating, barely made it to the consultation room. The doctor looked at her worriedly.
“Madam, let’s check on our baby. Take a deep breath, relax, it’s going to be okay.”
“The baby, how is my baby?”
“The baby is strong and healthy. There was some uterine contraction due to the intense stress, but the baby is fine. Shall we listen to the baby’s heartbeat?”
Reassured by the doctor, Seoha regained her composure.
Thump. Thump. Thump. Thump.
The cute and vigorous heartbeat echoed in the consultation room, easing Seoha’s expression.
How could she think of giving up the baby?
Hearing the distinct thumping of the little heart strengthened her resolve.
“Can you hear that? That’s a strong heartbeat. Your baby is healthy, no need to worry.”
Tears streamed down Seoha’s face.
The doctor calmed her and showed her the baby again through the ultrasound.
Seeing the baby, a bit bigger now, with its heart beating strongly, she felt a swell of emotions from deep within.
As if the baby was shouting, “I am here, recognize me.”
“I’ll protect you, I promise…”
Seoha’s grip on her clothing tightened with determination.

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.
