Su Hee, looking up at the towering building, turned around.
“Is the shoot in the same building?”
Chul Yong, who just got off the driver’s seat, was humming and hawing, not knowing his mistake.
“Well, Su Hee.”
“I’m not supposed to have a meeting with Studio Green today, am I?”
Su Hee’s eyes carried a cold light as if telling him to be truthful right away.
“I told the boss to postpone the meeting, but he insisted on taking you to the meeting…”
The magazine shoot was just a bait to call Su Hee out.
Chul Yong, trailing off his sentence, seemed to wonder what he did wrong.
He had done his duty as a manager, and the boss wasn’t Su Hee but Chairman Choi.
Even if Su Hee was to get mad and run amok here, nothing would change.
Chairman Choi would certainly have tried to sit Su Hee in front of Seung Jo again and again for her return.
“If I don’t like the script, I’ll leave right away.”
In the end, Su Hee, who had raised the white flag, headed towards the building.
Chul Yong, who had brightened his heavy face in a flash, quickly stuck to Su Hee’s side.
As Su Hee entered the building, all eyes were on her.
Some even took out their cellphones to take pictures, while others jumped up and down in place in delight.
Su Hee followed the reception desk employee who had been waiting for her.
People blatantly stared at one place of Su Hee passing by them.
It was Su Hee’s belly, as she was wearing a dress.
“Look at her belly. Doesn’t she look pregnant?”
“You know how well maternity bands are coming out these days. She could hide it.”
They thought she wouldn’t hear, but even the smallest whispers were heard by Su Hee’s ears.
Not wanting to cause a stir, Su Hee crossed her arms and tried to appear relaxed.
When the employee guided her to the elevator, Su Hee stepped inside.
As soon as the elevator doors closed, Su Hee opened her mouth that she had been keeping closed.
“Is my pregnancy scandal that serious?”
Su Hee didn’t know how things were going because she had turned off her phone for two days.
Chul Yong, who was pondering whether or not to tell the truth, nodded his head.
“Not only on YouTube, but eyewitness accounts have also been posted on anonymous cafes, causing more noise.”
“Eyewitness accounts?”
“Yes. It seems they saw you at an OB/GYN with a guy.”
The rumor that seemed to subside for a moment seemed to be expanding its reach without a gap to handle.
Caught up in a bothersome matter, Su Hee’s head even throbbed.
“What about the YouTube video? Has it been taken down?”
“They’re continuing to livestream it, so it seems difficult to completely block it.”
As they would generate revenue based on the number of views, it wasn’t easy to let it go.
It was only after all the flesh was torn off that one would finally discard the bone.
“Do not worry too much. It will quiet down soon.”
“It should… it should get quiet soon.”
This wasn’t the first time they faced absurd rumors.
Had it been a normal day, they would have passed without much impact.
But at this mentally challenging time, even a small pebble caused a big ripple.
The elevator door opened on the floor where the representative’s office was.
Cha, the secretary, was waiting. Had they received a call from an employee?
“The representative is waiting for you. This way.”
Cha, with their back of the hand facing the floor, led the way.
The representative’s office was located at the end of the long hallway.
Cha, who knocked a couple of times, opened the glass door and went in to announce.
“Miss Oh Su Hee has arrived.”
As Cha moved aside, Su Hee set foot into the representative’s office.
Perhaps because the office was all glass, the sun poured in abundantly.
Seung Jo, who she saw again after a week and two days, was no different from before.
“Nice to see you again, Miss Oh Su Hee.”
His deep and intense eyes that stood out even from afar, and his spotlessly clean skin for a man.
Sharp, sharp. She realized his gaze had been on her for a long time and raised her voice.
“Nice to see you.”
“Please sit.”
Su Hee sat on the long green sofa where Seung Jo gestured.
Seung Jo, who sat on the single sofa at a diagonal position, asked how she had been.
“Have you been well?”
He must know that she hasn’t been well.
Unlike the last time they met, her eyes were dark as if shadows were cast.
He saw everything, even her barely lifting the corners of her mouth.
He knew at once that she was here not of her own volition, but forced.
“I’ve been well, thanks to you.”
Seung Jo, who looked away from the silently smiling Su Hee, instructed Cha.
“Bring the prepared script.”
At the word script, Su Hee secretly bit the soft flesh inside her lips.
Soon, three scripts were laid on the table.
“I’ve picked roles that would suit Miss Oh Su Hee.”
Chul Yong was making a fuss next to the silent Su Hee.
“There’s a piece by writer Kim Si Woon.”
He was one of the writers who had swept all the playwriting awards, recognized for both his commercial and artistic successes.
Su Hee also wanted to try a piece by writer Kim Si Woon if given a chance.
That was until eight months ago.
Ex-husband Wants Reconciliation
One-line summary: Chasing the wife to the crematorium (making an effort to attract someone who has become indifferent), the female lead doesn’t look back, the second male lead takes the position.
Intro:
To repay the kindness of the older generation, Su Mu crossed into a female-dominated world and became a live-in daughter-in-law of the Yan family, single-handedly saving the Yan family from fire and water.
But her husband, Yan Jiyue, the eldest son of the Yan family, treated her with sarcasm and never showed her a good face.
It wasn’t until after Su Mu’s death that this pampered and arrogant young master shed a few fake tears and pretended to want to die for love.
This life’s kindness was enough. If there was a next life, she would definitely kick Yan Jiyue away.
Who knew that the heavens would be so kind as to allow her to be reborn, returning to the time when she had just married into the Yan family.
Su Mu glanced at the Yan eldest son, who still spoke coldly to her, and threw a divorce letter in front of him.
“Let’s divorce!”
***
Yan Jiyue never imagined that he would be reborn. He happily went to find Su Mu, wanting to make up for the mistakes he had made in his ignorant youth.
Wasn’t the reason the heavens allowed him to be reborn to let him reconcile with Su Mu?
But when he pushed open the door to Su Mu’s room, the person lying on the bed was another man.
Su Mu’s personal attendant, Xie Yi.
Yan Jiyue hated him so much that his teeth itched. In front of Su Mu, Xie Yi was a gentle and considerate whisperer of sweet nothings, but in reality, he was vicious-hearted and deliberately sabotaged their husband and wife relationship.
In the previous life, it was he who secretly hid in Su Mu’s coffin and committed suicide, stealing a step ahead of him to be buried with Su Mu.
Yan Jiyue’s eyes were filled with hatred as he cursed, “What kind of thing are you? Your background is lowly, what right do you have to occupy Su Mu?”
Xie Yi looked at the sleeping Su Mu and no longer pretended to be a whisperer of sweet nothings.
He proudly stuck out his belly, “I have the right because my belly is capable of giving the Wife-master a daughter.”
***
Yan Jiyue was consumed with jealousy. He spread rumors that Xie Yi had once been branded with the mark of a “harlot” on his chest.
But on the night Xie Yi cut off the flesh bearing that mark, Su Mu suddenly realized something was amiss.
“How did you know the exact moment I was poisoned? And why did you show up a month early?”
Xie Yi remained silent, blood from his wound soaking through his robes. His sapphire eyes brimmed with anguish – or was it just a flawless act?
Between a once-arrogant husband now seeking redemption, and a gentle soul willing to die for her – who truly held the darkest secrets? And could it be that Su Mu and Yan Jiyue weren’t the only ones given a second chance at life…?
