He would soon apologize, saying he was sorry for seeing again the item touched by his mother. Yeon-ji thought that way and turned her head.
“I didn’t know you would stick to the lie until the end.”
“What are you talking about?”
“I should be thankful because you make me lose even human sympathy.”
Yeon-ji’s eyes widened at Hyuk-joo, who uttered incomprehensible words.
“I don’t know how that handkerchief ended up in your hands, but you shouldn’t have lied like that.”
“What are you talking about?”
Yeon-ji frowned heavily.
Removing his hand that had been holding her arm, Hyuk-joo walked to the desk.
He picked up a large envelope that had been placed on one side of the desk and came back, handing it to Yeon-ji.
Seeing the envelope, Yeon-ji asked, “What’s this?”
“Open it.”
Yeon-ji opened the entrance of the envelope.
Inside, there was a thick stack of papers. She pulled out the papers all at once.
“…….,”
Confirming the writing on the paper, Yeon-ji dropped her hand weakly.
“A person named Ma Sam-seop knows well about it.”
“Hyuk-joo Oppa…”
“I’m talking about you.”
Yeon-ji’s face turned pale all at once.
She wondered where the abundant materials proving what she did in the past came from, and it was Ma Sam-seop who provided them.
Yeon-ji’s clenched fist trembled.
It was clear that Ma Sam-seop had contacted Hyuk-joo. So he came to meet her and demanded an absurd interest, saying something unreasonable.
‘This idiot!’
Rather, if he had come to her first, she could have earned more money in the future than 1 billion won.
Cursing Ma Sam-seop’s foolishness, Yeon-ji raised her head and faced Hyuk-joo.
“Do you believe the nonsense that such a rascal says? You should have talked to me first when he came and blabbered some strange things! Ma Sam-seop is here talking nonsense!”
She shouted with an excited voice.
“Did you make Ma Sam-seop watch me? How could you do this to me, Oppa?”
“Stop it.”
“Stop it? Huh, I’m really disappointed in Oppa. No matter how much Oh Eun-soo likes that woman, how could you do this to me, Oppa?”
Yeon-ji burst into tears.
It wasn’t tears of sadness, but tears of anger. Wiping away the flowing tears with her hands, she glanced at Hyuk-joo’s face with a hint of resentment.
I thought there would be a hint of confusion, but Hyuk-joo stood expressionless.
No, it was a face that showed no signs of surprise.
She felt that something was wrong, but Yeon-ji had no way of knowing exactly what was off.
“Seo Yeon-ji, stop it now.”
Hyuk-joo let out a short bitter laugh, as if his energy was drained, and swept his hair back with his hand.
“Do I have to point out your lie from the beginning?”
“W-What lie did I tell?”
Yeon-ji questioned with blood vessels popping on her neck.
“The child I was looking for, it’s not you.”
“…What? No, no!”
“I found that child. So stop lying.”
“You found him?”
Yeon-ji swallowed dryly with a surprised expression.
She couldn’t understand how he found that child or what method he used. Yeon-ji vigorously shook her head.
“Lies! The person who claims to be that child is the one lying. The child you were looking for is me!”
“If I had known you were such a low person, I should have checked properly earlier.”
Muttering to himself mixed with self-pity, Hyuk-joo took out a photo from his wallet.
It was a picture he received from his father when his mother passed away at the age of 49.
Until now, he thought his father and aunt had gotten rid of everything related to his mother.
So, he deliberately avoided looking for things like his mother’s photos. He believed it was something he couldn’t find no matter how desperately he searched.
However, his father said that he left his mother’s belongings as they were in the house in Sokcho.
In the photo, his mother, even lying in bed, was smiling.
Without the hospital gown and the hanging IV line by the bedside, it would be hard to think of her as a sick person.
She was smiling brightly despite being bedridden.
Hyuk-joo showed the photo to Yeon-ji.
“My mother never wore a hat like the one you mentioned.”
Throughout her illness, his mother wore a scarf instead of a hat. She explained that she found hats uncomfortable due to her fever.
“And you don’t even know exactly who my mother is.”
“…”
“To the extent of calling this person my mother.”
Yeon-ji bit her lip.
Hyuk-joo thoroughly proved his lie as if he had prepared for this moment.
He made himself look ridiculous by insisting on a nonexistent hat.
Moreover, he thought she wouldn’t figure out who his mother was and showed another woman’s photo first.
Faced with such a well-constructed lie, Yeon-ji fell into contemplation.
