Tae-ha turned into Itaewon-ro at 9 PM.
Climbing up a shabby hill with walls like a fortress, his phone rang.
The number displayed on the screen was that of the security agent who had secretly followed Eunseo. Fortunately, even though he had been trailing her for more than half a day, Eunseo had not noticed his presence.
Of course. Her daily life is far removed from surveillance, and his agent is the best of the best.
“Reporting.”
Miss Song Eunseo has arrived in front of her house now. She visited three law offices, and afterward, she looked into two share houses and seven goshiwons.
“Goshiwons?”
I will check the details and report back.
“Okay. End the tracking and go home. I will receive the report tomorrow. Thank you for your hard work.”
A law office.
It was a predictable move. He would have looked into the annulment lawsuit and how to safely conclude the lawsuit without being marked as a scammer.
However, share houses or goshiwons were unexpected. He had at least expected to look into an officetel.
Could she not even afford a one-room? What is so scarce?
The car almost reached the top of the hill. To get to the parking lot, one had to pass through the gate and turn around the curve. But in front of the gate, a person was visible.
A highly unusual sight that is almost never seen in front of his house.
In front of the intercom, the person hesitated, raising and lowering their arm, unable to make up their mind. They lifted their heel to kick, swayed their head here and there, and gestured awkwardly.
Even so, there’s no way to see inside the high wall.
He can’t enter confidently like an owner, and it’s too much like an intruder to call him a guest.
If he asks who it is, there would be no appropriate words to evade. Since most employers still don’t know of her existence, he can’t say he’s Song Eunseo, and he can’t say she’s a scammer.
It was understandable even after understanding.
“Park it.”
Driver Kim parked the car without a word.
“I will get off here. Driver, go home.”
“Yes, sir. Have a comfortable night, and I’ll see you tomorrow morning.”
Tae-ha got off with four shopping bags.
Shopping bags containing four pairs of boots ranging from size 225 to 240. It was the result of his conclusion that he didn’t know Eunseo’s foot size and thinking about it.
In the bright light behind him, Eunseo covered her eyes with the back of her hand and turned around. In the diagonal direction, a tall man was standing.
His face was hard to confirm in the backlight, but the atmosphere indicated who he was.
Perfectly open shoulders and a well-balanced figure. A posture that could match an X-ray model for a spine specialist.
Above all, there was something about him that was hard to grasp.
“Ring the bell. I’ll inform you about the house. Don’t be too conspicuous.”
“Should I come now?”
“Yes. My work is finished now. Let’s go inside.”
After passing by Eunseo, Tae-ha opened the door.
After him, the sound of the door closing was heard, and then, through the serene garden, the sound of irregularly shaped stepping stones being tread upon.
Thump, thump. The sound of a woman’s footsteps dragging on the floor was long. The sound of tired feet sticking heavily to the ground.
How many hours has it been?
Tae-ha deliberately slowed down his steps to let her catch up. When he looked back, she gave him a look as if questioning why he was staring.
People are nerve-wracking.
Tae-ha looked ahead again.
Two shadows, illuminated by a lamppost brightening the dark garden, moved slowly toward a certain place at regular intervals.
Eunseo followed him without enjoying the garden’s view. Since she had entered the house in a different way than yesterday, she couldn’t help but follow Tae-ha.
Her legs were sore and heavy, walking slowly, and he turned back. An annoying look urging her to hurry.
It’s so exhausting.
When he opened the door over the low jaw, a different space appeared from the entrance seen yesterday. It was undoubtedly the same building, but if what he saw yesterday was the back door, this seemed to be the front entrance.
It wasn’t an entrance hall, but it was no different from a spacious reception room or waiting room.
As Tae-ha took off his shoes, Eunseo also took off her shoes. Tae-ha’s eyes slowly moved to Eunseo’s shoes.
Unlike what she saw in the morning, the dirt that was scattered everywhere seemed to have been cleaned up. Although old, it looked tidy. It seemed like someone had polished the shoes to go out.
Tae-ha leisurely kneeled down and flipped the boots. Though faint, the numbers written on the sole were precisely 225.
Is her foot really that small? Can she walk with those feet?
A light laugh escaped. Of course, she can walk. He saw her with his own eyes.
Tae-ha took out a box from the shopping bag containing the boots in size 225.
Calling it a ‘gift’ is ambiguous, and the meaning of the word ‘gift’ is too grand.
Tae-ha took out the black boots from the box and neatly placed them next to Eunseo’s shoes.
