Cherry blossoms were in full bloom. The branches, which had been tightly clenched by the cold, suddenly burst into vibrant petals.
“Spring has already come.”
It seemed like just yesterday that the cold spell had receded, and in no time, flowers were in full bloom. Jina, caressing the boat she had called, enjoyed the scenery with satisfaction.
The swollen belly, which seemed ready to burst on her thin body, indicated that the due date was approaching with the waning moon.
“Noona, I caught a cold.”
Jinwoo approached Jina, who was standing in the lobby, with brisk steps. Secretaries stood behind Jinwoo.
“I told you to wait inside.”
“The weather is nice.”
“Can I really go with you?”
“Yeah. I’ve almost finished all the important tasks. Vice Chairman. It’s not slacking off.”
At Jina’s words, Jinwoo smiled uncontrollably, as if he couldn’t hold back.
“It’s not like that. Well then, let’s go.”
With care, Jinwoo held Jina’s hand and took cautious steps. It was evident to anyone that he was considerate of Jina.
A day before Jina and Jinwoo’s wedding, Chairman Seo collapsed.
In place of Chairman Seo, who was admitted to the hospital, Jinwoo became the vice chairman. Jinwoo was called by Chairman Seo, who had been incessantly busy.
In response to the sudden summons, Jina followed him as he seemed to be going together.
Smiling at each other, Jinwoo and Jina got into the car. The sight of Jina, working diligently at the company with her visibly swollen belly, made him feel sorry and proud. However, Jinwoo felt an infinite gratitude towards her for accompanying him to the hospital without missing a beat.
“Can Father see our Jiwoo?”
In response to Jina’s question, Jinwoo squeezed her hand a little harder.
“Yes.”
His voice, whose recipient was unknown, trembled slightly. Looking at Jinwoo, Jina covered his hand with her other hand. Rather than words, Jina’s warm gesture made Jinwoo smile.
“Thank you.”
Although he tried not to show it, Jinwoo seemed uncomfortable every time he went to see Chairman Seo. Jina knew this because she could see and feel everything about Jinwoo.
She knew that Jinwoo had accepted Chairman Seo’s request to meet her.
Since he was running his father’s company, who had abandoned his mother. For Jinwoo, who had given up everything for himself, Jina was always there when he went to meet Chairman Seo.
“We have arrived.”
K Hospital, a subsidiary of the K Group, was located on a spacious hill overlooking the Han River. Thanks to this, the hospital was not only reputable for its medical skills but also popular as a Han River view restaurant.
The VIP ward was calm and quiet compared to the general ward. The deep dark wood interior created an atmosphere much more luxurious than any hotel.
At the window overlooking the Han River, Chairman Seo, with the shadow of death hanging over him, lay in bed. The unknown intravenous lines, intended to prolong his life, seemed to restrain him as if binding him.
“Chairman, we have arrived.”
Jinwoo approached Seo Iljun with a determined expression. Iljun’s wife, who had been nursing him, abruptly stood up to greet Jinwoo and Jina.
“Come in.”
It hadn’t been long since he was admitted to the hospital, but he looked much more emaciated than when seen at home.
Iljun, sensing their presence, slowly opened his eyes.
“You came.”
Iljun, who seemed to find it difficult even to breathe, looked much more exhausted than last week.
“I heard you called.”
As always, Jinwoo maintained a businesslike attitude in front of Iljun. If not for their relationship as father and son, one wouldn’t even be able to infer the dry atmosphere.
“Has Saeaga come too?”
Iljun turned his head laboriously to look at Jina.
“Yes, Father. How are you feeling?”
Iljun’s dim eyes brightened at Jina’s cheerful greeting.
“It seems better since Saeaga came.”
“I dropped by while working. Since we don’t have much time, please speak.”
Cutting off Iljun’s words, Jinwoo’s firm voice was heard.
It was an answerless action. When facing his father, Jinwoo was always like this. His once affectionate and gentle attitude in everything seemed to have stiffened and become uneasy.
“You worthless fellow, blocking the way between my granddaughter and son-in-law.”
Iljun grimaced and spoke with an unsatisfied expression.
“Yeah. He’s in a hurry for the succession.”
Whether it was an expected event or not, Jinwoo did not react. Quietly listening to Iljun’s words, Jinwoo asked without any emotions.
“When exactly is the timing?”
“I told Lawyer Park, so figure it out yourselves.”
After finishing his words, Iljun turned his head to the other side. He seemed to no longer want to talk to Jinwoo.
“Well then, we’ll leave now.”
Jinwoo politely greeted, took Jina’s hand, and turned around. At that moment, Iljun asked in a low voice.
“When is Saeaga’s due date?”
“It’s in mid-April, Father.”
In response to Jina’s answer, Iljun faintly smiled.
“I see.”
