To avoid her motherinlaw’s piercing gaze as much as possible, she had to do her best to eat.
It was when Su Yeon’s chopstick movements became a bit hurried.
Suddenly, In Ho’s voice halted Su Yeon’s hand.
“Don’t worry about the article.”
Su Yeon slowly raised her eyes.
In Ho continued his meal without giving her a glance.
It had been a long time since they had a meal together.
After he joined the new work and shooting started, it was not easy to see his face even for a moment.
Did her forced eating seem to bother him?
In Ho’s sudden words puzzled her.
Su Yeon gazed blankly at In Ho.
She couldn’t understand what he meant by not worrying about the article; the whole explanation was cut off.
But In Ho seemed to be sure that Su Yeon’s silence was either a complaint or a disappointment.
An excuse followed shortly.
“I couldn’t concentrate properly during yesterday’s shoot. So, I kept making NGs. I think they were worried, so they came to check on me during the break……”
Su Yeon maintained her silence, not removing her gaze from In Ho.
He noticed her and looked back.
Su Yeon shook her head lightly.
In Ho being wary of Su Yeon was uncommon.
“…I seemed tired, so they brought me an energy drink. Just so happens, they captured that moment.”
In Ho’s explanation ended there.
She still didn’t fully understand the details, but she roughly guessed what situation he was referring to.
An article must have popped up.
And the picture that came up with the article was certainly likely to be misunderstood for her.
“……”
“……”
Silence enveloped the neat breakfast table.
Su Yeon blinked slowly.
She was indifferent to the scandal.
Regardless of who he was pictured with and what misunderstandings it led to, such things couldn’t affect Su Yeon.
Even though they lived like a married couple in a show window, she had that much faith in In Ho.
The belief that as long as he maintained his married life with her, he would not cause embarrassment by having an affair with another woman.
But for some reason, she wasn’t feeling okay now.
She felt certain that he was hiding something from her.
“……”
“……”
Su Yeon’s dry gaze stopped at In Ho’s fingertips.
In Ho was bad at lying.
When he lied, he couldn’t meet her eyes and incessantly tormented the tips of his fingers, scratching his skin until he saw blood.
Exactly like right now.
“You’ll bleed again.”
“……What?”
“Your fingertip.”
Su Yeon looked at In Ho’s fingertip with emotionless eyes.
Only then did In Ho, realizing he couldn’t keep his hands still, hurriedly hide them under the dining table.
The corner of Su Yeon’s mouth quivered with a bitter feeling.
She quietly raised her gaze to look at In Ho.
As always, he couldn’t look at her.
It hurt her heart.
She wanted to catch his gaze, even if it was for a moment.
Even if his gaze lacked even a bit of affection.
But even so.
Even if his gaze was devoid of a single bit of affection, Su Yeon yearned and hoped for a single glance from In Ho.
She hoped that he would meet her eyes and show at least a sorry face, saying that this happened, but she doesn’t need to worry.
If she had done so, Su Yeon could confidently assert that she would have faced In Ho with a bright smile she had never dared to crack before.
Thank you for saying that.
You must be exhausted from the shoot, and with such articles being published, it must be even harder for you.
She might have been unduly worried about In Ho.
But all of that was nothing more than excessive greed.
She knew that deep in her bones, but when would she stop harbouring this vain hope, expecting, and then being disappointed?
Su Yeon found herself frustrating.
After all, In Ho was a man who not only didn’t know her feelings but also showed no interest in her at all.
Su Yeon, managing to hold a faint bitter smile, wiped it off cleanly and slowly parted her lips.
“Stop bothering me. I haven’t confirmed it yet, but it seems an article has been published. I’m fine. I’m not misunderstanding anything. So, don’t worry.”
The voice that continued without an answer was so dry that it was hard to find even a thread of emotion.
Perhaps that was what had disturbed his mind.
In Ho’s face, which she hadn’t seen since dinner, was reflected in Su Yeon’s pupils.
But it wasn’t the face she had been hoping for.
An angry face, with eyebrows slanted upwards and a furrowed forehead.
Su Yeon had to swallow a sigh at In Ho’s expression, etched deeply in her eyes.
((())) ((())) ((()))
Su Yeon quickly got out of the car that had stopped in front of the Seongbukdong mansion.
From the movement of her hand pressing the doorbell to her steps climbing the stairs as soon as the door opened.
There wasn’t a single thing that didn’t betray her impatience.
It was because In Ho’s schedule was packed in the afternoon, so she left late.
Su Yeon hastily took off her shoes and pushed her legs inside the door.
It was exactly at that moment.
Bang.
“What on earth are you doing? What are you doing to cause such articles to be published?”
With the sharp voice of her motherinlaw, the tablet PC flew towards her feet.
She had barely stepped in.
Into this hell, where she had to clock in every day, she had barely set one foot in.
And the start of it was harsher than any other day.
Su Yeon closed her eyes tightly then opened them.
Then she looked at the tablet PC lying beneath her feet.
When the male lead is punished by carrying the female lead’s child and having periods like a woman
“I’ve given birth to two children for you, yet you still think about him.
Was I nothing but his substitute to you from beginning to end?”
