For a moment, Jinwoo, forgetting his words, gazed at Jina quietly. Jina’s transparent eyes, as if about to be sucked in, blinked slowly, as if she knew everything.
“I always know that I’m the first for you. Don’t miss anything because of me.”
At her words, Jinwoo slightly nodded.
“It’s something that can wait until tomorrow.”
“The hospital called you.”
Even in Jina’s ear, which was embraced in Jinwoo’s arms, the voice from the handset seemed to be heard. Jinwoo, who had an awkward expression, smiled wryly.
“I understand. Then, I’ll take you home and go.”
Jina didn’t object to Jinwoo’s words. Jinwoo, who was about to move naturally, looked at Jina once more.
“I’ll go to the hospital by myself.”
“Jinwoo.”
Jina’s voice calling Jinwoo’s name sounded somewhat tearful.
“You’re always my top priority. You are more important to me than anything else.”
“…”
“If there’s a place I shouldn’t go, I’ll wait in the corridor. But, if I feel like I’m bothering you even a little, I’ll be very sad.”
Jinwoo’s eyes trembled slightly. He couldn’t make Jina sad. Jinwoo, who sighed lightly, opened his mouth.
“I understand. Stay by my side.”
Jinwoo’s eyes, who had made a decision in no time, shone dimly.
The hospital, late in the evening, felt much quieter than before. A few hours later, Sehee greeted Jinwoo and Jina with a more tired face.
“I’m sorry for calling you when you’re busy. The chairman was so angry.”
Unlike Jina, who couldn’t understand the reason, Jinwoo’s expression hardened. It was as if he had put on a mask.
“You.”
As soon as Jinwoo arrived, Iljun glared at him with sharp eyes.
“Have you handled company matters with personal emotions until now?”
Jina’s eyes widened at the unexpected words. Watching from the side, Jinwoo had worked hard for the company more than anyone else.
“Well, when you said you would come under me, it was because of a woman.”
Iljun clicked his tongue with an unpleasant face.
“I would have entrusted the company to someone else at that time. If I had done that, I wouldn’t have seen this miserable situation.”
Even with Iljun’s rough words, Jinwoo stood silently. Like a person who had prepared to endure any words.
“In the end, is it revenge against your father? Is that why you crawled under me?”
At the end of Iljun’s words, he breathed heavily. His thin, angular shoulders trembled.
“I never thought of it as revenge.”
Finally, Jinwoo opened his mouth. He was as calm as if he were in a different world from Iljun.
“Why did you bring a professional manager if you’re going to say such nonsense? Ruining my father’s company? What a nerve!”
Iljun raised his voice.
“How did I build my company? You, bastard! Are you trying to stab me in the back for your mother?”
“Revenge is,”
Jinwoo clenched his teeth tightly.
“It is done when there are lingering emotions. I have no lingering emotions towards Chairman.”
A distinctly different voice from Iljun’s was calm. However, that made the tension even more palpable, like a time bomb ready to explode at any moment.
“What?”
Iljun frowned.
“Are you saying there’s no such thing as love between the rich?”
Iljun’s clenched fist trembled.
“There never was.”
Jinwoo didn’t step back.
“Since Chairman abandoned my mother and me.”
He still had the same toneless voice. Nevertheless, to Jina, his voice sounded incredibly sad.
“He didn’t abandon you. Your mother took you and left. It was your mother who abandoned the family.”
Iljun responded roughly.
“If I hadn’t seen my mother’s scream at the sight of my husband embracing another woman… maybe I could have believed it. As another man.”
Iljun’s eyebrows twitched at Jinwoo’s words. Sehee, standing next to him, also shrank her shoulders.
“We were abandoned back then.”
The emotionless voice resonated with profound sadness. Silence fell momentarily inside the hospital room.
“So.”
Iljun looked at Jinwoo with a somewhat bitter expression.
“If you’re abandoning your father now, I should praise it as perfect revenge.”
“…”
“How can there be no affection between parents and children? Even if you and I have been apart for a long time, isn’t it the parents and children who seek each other when it’s important?”
Iljun muttered quietly.
“Even if you deny it, you are seeking revenge on me. In other words, you have emotions. No matter how much you deny it, the baby in your wife’s belly will feel emotions towards you as soon as it’s born. Even before you show fatherly love.”
“Even if I have to die,”
Jinwoo’s gaze sank coldly.
“I won’t abandon my wife and child.”
He didn’t intend to become the same kind of father. He hadn’t properly experienced the weight of being a father. Therefore, he wasn’t confident that he would be a good father. But he was sure that he would never abandon his wife and son, no matter what happened.
“If you’ve finished what you wanted to say, I’ll leave now.”
Jinwoo’s voice, suppressing emotions, shook slightly. He couldn’t endure Iljun’s words mentioning Jina and the baby any longer.
“Seo Jinwoo.”
