Hyun-young deliberately brought up Seo-ha. Tae-kyung hesitated for a moment without a word, then agreed and hung up.
Hyun-young, feeling suffocated, asked her secretary to bring some ice water and gulped it down.
Less than an hour after hanging up, Tae-kyung entered the chairman’s office.
“What’s the matter? Why are you bringing up Seo-ha?”
As soon as Tae-kyung entered the chairman’s office, he stood before Hyun-young with an askew attitude.
“Are you meeting Seo-ha again?”
“What does that have to do with you, Chairman?”
“Break it off with Seo-ha right now. What about Yuna?”
Tae-kyung stood more defiantly, crossing his arms.
“There’s nothing between me and Jin Yuna. You know. I told you before. I will protect Seo-ha.”

“What power do you have to protect Seo-ha! Just leave her alone, she’s living well without getting hurt!”
“Why can’t I protect Seo-ha? Are you telling me to marry Jin Yuna instead?”
“Why can’t you? If you really care about Seo-ha, forget her and marry Yuna!”
Hyun-young knew her son’s stubbornness but couldn’t yield this time.
Not just for her son, but for Seo-ha’s sake too, she thought it was right to break Tae-kyung’s connection with her. The mother of Seo-ha was a parasite, likely to cling to Tae-kyung and Seo-ha for money.
She must not give that woman any chance. Seo-ha, and that child, will suffer at the hands of that woman if they stay with Tae-kyung.
Sometimes, even if it hurts and brings tears, one must cut off their own flesh, a lesson Hyun-young learned painfully.
For Hyun-young, it was time to cut, even if it hurt. It seemed Tae-kyung still didn’t know the child was his.
Hyun-young resolved to separate them before Tae-kyung learned about the child.
“Seo-ha is one thing, but why should a child be entangled in this? Are you only thinking about your feelings and not about Seo-ha and the child?”
“How do you know Seo-ha has a child? Did you investigate behind my back? Ha!”

Hyun-young had made up her mind firmly. It would be a lie to say that Hyun-young found this situation comfortable or easy.
She knew better than anyone how hard it is for a woman to raise a child alone.
She had raised two children herself.
With an almost non-existent ex-husband, who would constantly come asking for money until his death, she knew all too well what people like Seung-ae were like.
Hyun-young hoped Tae-kyung and Seo-ha wouldn’t have to spend their lives being extorted like she did.
“You can’t handle Seo-ha’s mother or Congressman Jin. Just stop!”
“Chairman!”
Hyun-young was determined not to back down today.
‘Besides, with Congressman Jin Cheol-wook running for president, who knows how he’ll react if he knows about Seo-ha’s existence. It’s not just Tae-kyung; Seo-ha might be in danger too. That’s why it can’t be.’
The Jin Cheol-wook that Hyun-young knew was notorious for not hesitating to use any means, legal or illegal, to achieve his goals, despite his gentle appearance.

So Hyun-young bit down harder, pushing Tae-kyung.
“If you truly care for Seo-ha, listen to her mother! Announce your marriage to Yuna now!”
“I refuse! I won’t marry Yuna. If I marry, it will be to no one but Kim Seo-ha.”
Tae-kyung’s firmness gave Hyun-young a headache.
After Tae-kyung left the chairman’s office, Hyun-young took out some headache pills and swallowed them.
She figured it would be difficult to persuade Tae-kyung.
In that case, she had no choice but to meet Seo-ha herself.
Hyun-young made a phone call.
Ring-ring-ring.
“It’s been a while. Have you been well? I need to see Seo-ha… Yes. Let’s meet later.”

She sighed and finished the call.
The dry early winter air painfully grazed Hyun-young’s heart.
When Hyun-young arrived in Yangpyeong, Yun-hee greeted her with a consistently warm smile.
“You’ve had a hard time coming here. It might seem modest to the Chairman, but have some tea anyway. The green tea I bought recently is really good.”
“Modest? It’s cozy and nice. You’re known for your tea-making skills.”
Yun-hee and Hyun-young slowly walked to the principal’s office. Just then, the five-year-old children of the Pulip class were lining up to move to another classroom.
“Hello, Principal?”
“Hello. How are you?”
The children greeted like little birds chirping.
Yun-hee warmly received their greetings like a grandmother.

Hyun-young’s gaze was drawn to Min-joon among the children.
Min-joon was the spitting image of Tae-kyung as a child. She thought she was seeing young Tae-kyung standing there.
“Is that child him?”
“He looks a lot like Tae-kyung, doesn’t he?”
“Yes, he does.”
Hyun-young’s voice sank low.
‘If only he had inherited the good traits, why did he have to inherit growing up without a father too?’
Hyun-young felt a throbbing in her heart.
The guilt overwhelmed her, but she had made up her mind firmly.
“Kim Teacher is doing fine. Your son isn’t. You know that, right?”

“He won’t listen to me. He used to be a child in my arms, but now he’s all grown-up and stubborn.”
“Ha-ha. I can’t believe you’re saying that. Time really is scary. Your mother would jump out of her grave if she heard that.”
“Really, you!”
Hyun-young acted petulantly like a young girl. Yun-hee just chuckled and opened the door to the principal’s office.
The two women sipped the green tea Yun-hee had carefully brewed.
The first to speak was Hyun-young.
“Thank you for taking care of Seo-ha.”
“I should be the one thankful. Having Teacher Kim is a relief. She’s better than my disobedient daughter. She’s considerate and good at her job. If I had a son, I would have wanted her as my daughter-in-law. Min-joon is also adorable.”
“His name is Min-joon?”
“Yes. Kim Min-joon.”
Hyun-young rolled the name ‘Min-joon’ around in her mouth.

“It should have been Han Min-joon.”

Yan Jin transmigrated into a brothel, with a fellow transmigrated junior beside her.
Hearing the obscene words coming from outside, the unfortunate junior covered his ears tightly, his cheeks flushed red, and whispered to comfort her, “Don’t worry, I will definitely help you escape.”
“Don’t worry, I will definitely defend your chastity.” Yan Jin looked at the flawless and delicate features of the unfortunate junior and gently comforted, “Because we have transmigrated into a female-dominant world.”

Top celebrity Yu Shu suddenly fell into a coma during a concert.
Research scientist Yan Jin fainted in the lab after working overtime.
Two people with no connection were rushed to the same hospital.
Three days later, neither of them had woken up.
Suddenly, the entire nation discovered that a live streaming app had been forcibly installed on their phones.
Upon opening it, they heard the two discussing how to escape from the brothel.
The entire internet was in an uproar.
After the two successfully escaped from the brothel, Yu Shu’s fan group rushed to make a banner and sent it to the hospital overnight.
“Big sister bravely took action to defend the chastity of our idol!”

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.]
