Taekyung tilted his head in confusion.
Two days ago, he had received a notification on his phone that a registered mail had been delivered, but he couldn’t find it anywhere, neither on his desk nor around.
“Miss Yoonju, did I receive any registered mail?”
“Mail?”
The female employee remembered the mail Yuna had brought yesterday and retrieved it from the drawer. Recalling Yuna’s request while looking at the meal voucher for a famous French restaurant with two Michelin stars under the mail, she thought:
‘Miss Yoonju, I accidentally took Taekyung’s mail. I came to return it. Please, don’t tell anyone I took it. Here’s a meal voucher for my friend’s French restaurant. If you need more vouchers, just ask. You’ll do me this favor, right?’
Yuna winked at her with a sly smile.
The employee handed the sealed mail to Taekyung.
“Sorry, I forgot to give it to you.”
Taekyung checked the sender on the envelope and entered his office without a word.

He carefully opened the envelope with a cautious hand.
His heart pounded as if it would burst out of his chest.
After taking a deep breath, he slowly pulled out the paper and looked at the contents.
[Paternity Probability (%): N]It felt like Taekyung had been struck on the head.
He couldn’t believe or disbelieve the result.
Immediately, he called his college senior but couldn’t reach him. So, he called the lab.
Hello, this is Biotech Research Institute.
“This is Han Taekyung, CEO of T&K, a junior of Director Joo Euntaek. Could you connect me to the director, please?”
Hello, Mr. CEO. The director is currently on a business trip in France.
“When will he be back?”

He went on a two-week trip, but the exact return date isn’t set yet.
“Okay, thank you.”
Taekyung hung up and left a message for Euntaek.
He wasn’t sure whether he didn’t want to believe the result or couldn’t.
The thought of Kim Seoha being with another man while he knew her was unthinkable. He had hoped that Minjun was his child.
He slammed his fist on the desk.
A sudden surge of anger and betrayal seemed to make his blood boil.
He couldn’t comprehend how she could have another man’s child while seeing him.
Feeling stupid for not noticing made him suffer from self-loathing.
He hated her so much. He couldn’t believe it.

But when he remembered Seoha’s face when they met again, the painful five years without her came flooding back.
He didn’t want to live in that hellish pain again.
He suffered either way.
Taekyung slumped in his office chair and covered his eyes with his forearm.
He didn’t want to see anything. He didn’t want to see that hateful paternity test report.
Even if he hated Seoha so much, could he live without her?
“Damn it.”
Taekyung spent the whole day locked in his office, refusing to meet anyone.
Kyuwon knocked on the door worriedly, but Taekyung didn’t respond.
As darkness fell, Taekyung picked up the paternity test report with a determined expression.

Riiip.
He tore the paternity test report into tiny pieces with both hands.
Refusing to believe in such a piece of paper.
Because it was Seoha, because it was her, Taekyung decided not to care whose child she was carrying.
All he wanted was for her to stay by his side and not leave him again.
He resolved to accept her child as his own, regardless of who the biological father was.
Seoha, lying weakly on the hospital bed, seemed like a candle about to go out.
Seeing her like this pained Taekyung even more. Having Kim Seoha, even if she had another man’s child, by his side was far better than not having her at all.
He decided not to care whether Minjun was another man’s child or not. As long as Seoha stayed by his side, he felt he could do anything.
“Have you sought treatment?”
“For what?”

“For your anxiety disorder, your fear of darkness. You used to be terrified of the dark, couldn’t even sleep.”
“Oh… No, I’ve been managing. Situations like today don’t happen often.”
Seoha answered weakly. Taekyung sighed deeply.
He regretted not more actively recommending treatment to Seoha, who had a particular fear of darkness.
“How about starting treatment now?”
Seoha shook her head at Taekyung’s suggestion. Going to the hospital regularly for something that wasn’t life-threatening wasn’t easy for her.
Besides, except in extreme situations like today, it was just a mild inconvenience in her daily life.
However, Taekyung thought differently. He suggested treatment with a somewhat firm attitude.
Taekyung wanted to schedule a consultation immediately, but since it was a psychological issue, he couldn’t push it without the patient’s willingness.
“Later. I’m fine for now.”

“Ha. The only thing that’s not fine for you is me, right?”
At Taekyung’s sulky voice, Seoha faintly smiled.
Even after pushing him away so many times, she was again by Taekyung’s side.
“Why aren’t you telling me to leave?”
“Even if I told you to leave, you wouldn’t go. And today… thank you.”
“…If you’re grateful, get treated. You need to.”
