He would only not refuse it because it wouldn’t harm Taeha, as long as her father, Chairman Jang, was pushing for it.
This marriage, there was no reason not to do it.
Even though it wouldn’t bring any gains to the company, marriage wasn’t his area of interest. As long as it wasn’t a scam, it was fine.
Song Eunseo.
Taeha shook off the name that suddenly came to mind.
“Well then, Mrs. Jang, how about we leave now and leave the kids behind? If it’s disappointing to just leave, shall we have a drink or something?”
“No, Chairman. You can drink at home. Chairman, are you going back to the office?”
“Nope. I’ve booked a restaurant to have a meal with you. Mrs. Jang, do you like soy sauce marinated crab?”
In the room, only the young man and woman remained. As people left, the space became very silent.
Perhaps she was quite tense; Haeun couldn’t easily lift her head.

“Why are you only looking at the floor when my face isn’t that worn out?”
Haeun, who had been staring at the floor, finally lifted her gaze. Taeha was calmly looking at her with a peculiar expression.
Calm. Although Taeha’s eyes were not the enchanting eyes of a woman in love, she tried to make eye contact, so it wasn’t a negative signal.
If you had to say, he wanted to believe it was more on the green light side.
What should she do? What should she do to create a perfect green light, and how could she win his heart?
She was frustrated.
In her eagerness, Haeun’s brain stopped working, and she absentmindedly fiddled with the belt of her coat.
Then, suddenly, Mrs. Jang’s words came to her mind.
[Even if that’s the case, the other party is a man.]Haeun regained her composure and placed her hand on the ribbon of the coat. As she pulled the ribbon and loosened the belt around her waist, she explained with a plausible reason.
“It feels a bit warm. Is it okay if I take it off?”
When Haeun took off her coat, a sensual figure was revealed. Taeha, who had been following the theatrical hand movements, swallowed a forced laugh.

“Did you know about today?”
“What are you talking about?”
“This place.”
“Honestly, I knew there was an engagement partner, but I didn’t know it was Mr. Kwon Taeha. Really. Did Mr. Kwon Taeha know about it?”
Haeun widened her eyes, showing a recalled expression.
“I knew there was an engagement partner, but I didn’t know we would meet today.”
“Then what did you know about…”
“It’s a place for my father and me to have a meal and discuss business. But the partner has changed.”
Taeha raised his eyebrows, smiling. It was hard to distinguish whether it was a polite smile or not, but the fact that he smiled was important to Haeun.
“It seems my father gets along well with you. Since I only have my mother, I had that kind of dream. Being loved by in-laws, being loved by my husband, preparing breakfast, sending off my husband, and when I have a baby, going to the hospital with my husband.”

At every place where ‘g’ came out, a voice that turned into a high tone scratched Taeha’s ears. Nevertheless, she didn’t lose her manners.
“Is that your dream?”
“Yes, it’s a bit simple. Maybe because I only have two family members, I like lively things like holidays and birthdays. Besides, I don’t know when I’ll be cut off. Do you know? That I’m an adopted daughter.”
“Is there a problem?”
The man was perfect.
“Because I’m an adopted daughter, there were people who didn’t like it.”
Haeun’s pupils quickly moistened.
Until now, no friend knew the fact that she was an adopted daughter, and she didn’t want to reveal it for no reason. But if she could show some pathos, it wasn’t difficult to make this level of lie.
“People are not all the same.”
“I grew up alone, and I didn’t live with my mother for a long time, so I’m a bit weak in love. But Mr. Kwon Taeha seemed like a kind person, so I was moved.”
Although it was clearly praise, Taeha’s lips drew a straight line this time, different from before. Just one change in the lips, but the atmosphere emitted a chilly feeling like winter.
“Let’s skip the build-up and get to the conclusion.”
“Yes?”
“It’s our first meeting, but it’s better to be precise.”
Unbeknownst to her, Haeun’s shoulders involuntarily stiffened in the man’s coldness with a hint of blue light.
“I don’t want to give unnecessary expectations. If you’re hoping for love, reconsider this marriage.”
It wasn’t a diplomatic expression. The word ‘reconsider’ carried an unwavering decisiveness.
“There are things I can give, and things I can’t. If you’re hoping for what I can’t give, go somewhere else.”
Mrs. Jang’s words, indicating that having good manners doesn’t necessarily mean an easy opponent, were thoroughly understood.
“That’s it for today. It seems my father initiated this without giving me time.”
“But…”

“I don’t like wasting time on undefined promises. If you want, Miss Haeun, have a meal and go. I’ll place an order for you.”
‘He doesn’t like it.’
For the first time, Haeun looked straight at Taeha. She needed to wake up. If she continued like this, she might miss what she wanted. It was no longer an issue of Mrs. Jang; now the problem was that she didn’t know what she wanted.
“I won’t ask for your heart. Still, the hope for ‘someday’ is something you can hold onto, right? By any chance, do you not like me?”
It was a somewhat bold question, but Taeha’s answer wasn’t difficult.
“Is it a problem whether I like it or not? Isn’t the point of loving, dating, and getting married living together anyway?”
“Still, in living together, isn’t it necessary to go through the process of getting to know each other? Sharing hobbies, finding out what each other likes, and at least doing that much?”
“Do I have to adjust for you?”
Haeun, with trembling lips, asked while trying to conceal it. Whether Taeha knew it or not, he responded in an indifferent tone.
Looking at the cold wristwatch as if it was annoying.

“We will maintain courtesy and propriety. That’s all.”
With a firm assertion.
Regaining her composure, Haeun asked. If Taeha left like this, she didn’t know how long it would take until their second meeting.
“Excuse me, Mr. Kwon Taeha, if we leave without having dinner, won’t the chairman wonder why you just came?”
Taeha, putting on the discarded suit jacket, responded with a warm smile.
“Seriously, are you scared of that?”
