Hearing a similar story through Director Hong and hearing it through a psychiatrist felt significantly different. Listening to a doctor, the precarious state seemed more vivid.
Moreover, Director Hong had only mentioned the need for sleeping pills and didn’t explicitly say that he was hospitalized as casually as having a meal.
“…Then, what happens now? Is Mr. Seo Taeseok okay now, or what about the future…”
Tears foolishly sprang forth again. If she had become the cause of making him like this and now wanted to replace the tears like it was nothing.
Summer felt repulsive to herself. So she endured the tears, insignificant like nail clippings, and wanted to speak only the words he needed.
“How can he stop taking tranquilizers?”
Kim Jeong-im looked at Summer with interest.
She seemed like she would burst into tears any moment, but soon she lifted her head, suppressing her emotions. Her eyes, once blurry, were now filled with determination. It was much better than a crying expression.
“Seeking medication for the illness of the mind. Will you stay by Summer’s side?”
“Do you know me?”
Summer asked in surprise. Kim Jeong-im smiled once again.
“As I said, I’ve been Seo Taeseok’s long-time psychiatrist. I’ve been by Summer’s side for much longer than she thinks.”
How long? Well, let’s see. About 31 years? It had settled in her abdomen, dividing cells on its own accord.
Amused by her own thoughts, Kim Jeong-im chuckled. Now she had a clear justification to kick out Ji Hyeon-jeong, and it made her feel relieved.
“Instead of tranquilizers, what’s needed. Summer, stay here. Don’t leave, wait here for a moment.”
It was a very gentle-toned command. Summer remained motionless until Kim Jeong-im rose from her seat and disappeared from her sight.
Can she really enter his hospital room?
She deliberately tried not to expect more, especially after several disappointments today. There is nothing more despairing than hope turning into disappointment.
Moreover, no matter how much of a psychiatrist she is, it wouldn’t be easy to dismiss Ji Hyeon-jeong, who came as a guardian. Summer’s heart was only half full.
‘Right. Just meeting the psychiatrist is fortunate enough.’
But the goddess of luck was much more on her side than her own thoughts.
10 minutes later.
“Summer, come here.”
Ji Hyeon-jeong, who was wiping Taeseok’s face, suddenly stood up at Kim Jeong-im’s visit once again. She awkwardly withdrew, losing the position to see Taeseok’s face up close.
Kim Jeong-im approached Taeseok, measured his blood pressure and temperature, then spoke.
“I’m going to play the role of a mother after a long time. Since I took a week off, I’ll be with Taeseok in the hospital. Miss Ji, please leave.”
It was a firm command that didn’t allow any objection. Who could oppose the idea of a mother taking care of her son? Ji Hyeon-jeong bit her lip tightly.
She wanted to be the one by Taeseok’s side when he opened his eyes. To show an affectionate appearance, caring for Taeseok alone by discarding all schedules. Hoping that, in painful moments, his heart could turn toward her. With such thoughts…
But the other party was none other than Taeseok’s mother. There was simply no reason for anger.
“…Understood, Professor. Then, I’ll come back tomorrow…”
“No.”
Reading the faint irritation in Ji Hyeon-jeong’s voice, Kim Jeong-im gave a bitter smile.
“I’ll stay. Nobody else should come except for Director Hong. It’s not a request but an order.”
Reluctantly, Ji Hyeon-jeong started to pack her belongings.
“Send away the guards at the door.”
“Yes. Understood.”
Ji Hyeon-jeong politely replied.
Summer and Kim Jeong-im stood side by side in front of the hospital room door.
She reduced her clinic hours a bit, but naturally didn’t take a vacation. Suddenly, taking a week off was not a profession that allowed for such breaks. Nevertheless, she felt proud of her own lie.
“From now on, there won’t be any guardians in Seo Taeseok’s room. May I ask for your cooperation?”
Without a moment’s hesitation, Summer nodded her head. She had no intention of leaving her seat until Taeseok regained consciousness. If there was something essential, she could ask Director Hong for help.
She was curious about how the chief physician had pushed Ji Hyeon-jeong out, but now, the safety of Taeseok came first, so she forcibly erased any unnecessary curiosity. And she expressed her gratitude once again.
“Doctor, thank you so much.”
“I’m the one who should be thankful.”
Kim Jeong-im smiled.
‘Please be the stabilizer for my son’s nerves.’
“Doctor, may I ask for your name?”
“I’m Professor Kim Jeong-im from the Department of Neuropsychiatry. Nice to meet you.”
Kim Jeong-im extended her hand as if meeting someone for the first time. Summer hesitated for a moment, then shook hands.
“Oh, and… Taeseok Oppa’s parents would be very worried too. Is there any way to contact them?”
Even to this unexpected question, Kim Jeong-im made a somewhat awkward expression, then quickly smiled.
“Well, I’ll contact them separately, so don’t worry.”
“Thank you.”
“Minwoo… No, Director Hong Minwoo, please tell him to come to my research lab when he comes.”
“Yes.”
That way, Kim Jeong-im left, and Summer, who was left alone, opened the door to the hospital room.
The thumping sound of her heartbeat seemed to resonate throughout the entire hospital. The time when she was sitting in the living room, casually organizing the house, felt like a distant memory.
It was only three hours ago. In those three hours, Summer went through the agony of despair and frustration, with her heart torn apart countless times.
Taeseok was asleep. Seriously. His face seemed quite injured, and he looked thinner.
Even in his dreams, he frowned uncomfortably. Without further thought, Summer rushed to hold his hand.
“Oppa.”
She gently folded his large and firm hand and brought it to his cheek. The warmth conveyed through his hand was more comforting than anything. Inevitably, tears flowed down her cheeks, wetting his hand.
‘It wasn’t that you were avoiding me. You were just out of your mind due to the effects of the medication. I didn’t know that and acted like a fool…’
I love you.
“Oppa, I’ll be by your side. I love you.”
Taeseok’s forehead, which had been heavily creased, softened. Finally, his breathing became more relaxed.
“Meet a good dream and come back. Sleep well and come back again. I’ll be waiting here.”

“How dare you!”
“How dare you make me love you, only to cast me aside as nothing more than a friend?!?
“I will never accept that.”
“I will never let you return to him.”
“Even if I have to burn myself to ashes.”
“Even if I must shatter my purity, my dignity, my very soul.”
“I will never let you escape me!”
This was the first novel that introduced me to the matriarchal genre. I’ve read it three times already!
At first, the male lead despised the female lead. Later, he misunderstood that she liked him, so he condescendingly and reluctantly reciprocated her feelings.
Then, he suddenly discovered that she was kind to everyone in the same way, and there was already someone she cherished in her heart, and that person was not him.
The male lead couldn’t believe it, he became angry and crazy. He was determined to capture her body and heart by any means necessary.
