‘Why not? I’m just saying this to relieve the stress of being a fake American who just returned from the United States.’
Hyesoo recognized Suho, the representative of Haesong Group and a regular customer, and readily agreed to his request.
And from that night, Suho started paying attention to Hyesoo.
Even after returning from overseas business trips, Suho visited the restaurant late at night without fail.
To everyone’s eyes, Hyesoo, being much younger, made her parents think of Suho’s words and actions as kindness.
Even Suho himself might have thought so at first.
But as Suho, who couldn’t control the deepening emotions, began to develop twisted desires, everything changed.
It was a time when Haesong was leaping, opening overseas branches. Suho, as the chairman of a major corporation, had everything he could desire, despite having a wife and child.
In the end, Suho’s feelings turned into a repulsive bundle of desires.
Starting with purchasing the building where the restaurant was located, events unfolded one after another that an ordinary couple couldn’t handle.
However, no matter how much of a chairman of a large company Suho was, Hyesoo’s parents were not people who would push their daughter about to get married to a married man.
Hyesoo, who learned the truth belatedly, chose to ride the car sent by Suho, hoping her parents could reopen the restaurant, and headed to his villa.
Even for Hyesoo, it was a choice she hadn’t thought her life would change drastically.
However, before she could shake off the guilt of her impending marriage, she found out she was pregnant, adding misfortune to misfortune.
“Your mother, oddly enough, lied to protect the child in her womb and forced herself into marriage. Then she left for the United States with her husband.”
Sunho’s lips twisted bitterly as he recalled his father’s obsessive behavior towards Hyesoo.
Meanwhile, my mother passed away from an overdose of sleeping pills.
So, if someone had to be happy, it had to be her.
Since the world was pointing fingers at her.
Sunho opened his mouth like a final warning to say the remaining words.
“I found the apartment in the United States where your mother lived. She clung to me, begging me to pretend not to know. She wanted to live happily with her husband.”
“…….”
“But I didn’t want to see her living happily as a family. So I let your father know. About the child’s existence too.”
In the end, Hyesoo had no choice but to divorce and return to Korea.
Sunho wished Hyesoo unhappiness due to his father’s insane obsession, just as his mother had been unhappy.
Along with that, he wanted her son and even her family to be unhappy.
“When your daughter went to the villa to protect the restaurant, your maternal aunt collapsed. Your maternal uncle ended his life with alcohol in the restaurant where no customers came.”
Sunho stopped talking and looked at Danwoo’s expressionless face. Then, he pointed at Danwoo with his chin.
“Your mother shouldn’t have given birth to you. If she hadn’t, your father wouldn’t have been so obsessed. Who would have thought there was such a disgusting face behind the upright and clean image? No one, right?”
Although Sunho’s words were meant to stir up emotions, Danwoo hardened his expression unemotionally.
Then, without hesitation, he slowly nodded his head as if to say it was irrelevant to him.
“So, why are you telling me this story? Are you trying to grab me by the collar and ask if it’s true, hoping I’ll cry? You’re delusional.”
“Being here reminded me of what you said. You said I twisted my life over such a trivial matter.”
Sunho repeated what Danwoo had said to him just before he was arrested.
“But look at how many people’s lives were ruined because of you.”
“Speak properly. It’s not because of me, it’s because of my father. The blood flowing through me feels dirty. It’s more disgusting than I thought.”
Danwoo stood up from his chair, nodded as if he had heard the story well, and nonchalantly left the visitation room.
However, with each step he took, a sense of despair welled up.
Perhaps his mother hadn’t found anything sweet in the offerings of Chairman Soo-ho, like the rest of the world seemed to think.
Danwoo could fully understand the modest house in a small neighborhood and the tears his mother shed.
“You can be anything, and anyone you want to be.”
Danwoo recalled Chairman Woosuho’s words that had inspired him to dream of becoming a game developer, even when he was forced to go to the United States.
“He said something like that.”
Living as if those words were a source of hope.
Moreover, believing that he was the only person who could save his mother and himself.
Such a person attended the shareholders’ meeting, supporting the company established by that person and came after consolidating the shares.
“You’re truly a great person.”
Danwoo, whose gaze turned as cold as an ice wall, uttered bitter words and got into the car.
Taeyoon, seeing the frozen face of his superior in the rearview mirror, started the car without saying a word.
While driving at a constant speed, Danwoo spoke softly inside the car.
“Taeyoon! There should be slush funds hidden in the name of the Woosuho family. Dig that up and hand it over to the prosecution. Also, make an appointment with the CEO Kim of Jeil Holdings. He asked to prepare some investment information that is convincing enough. Find someone in prison who can listen to us.”
“Someone?”
“Yeah. …Today, I’ll go home directly.”
Danwoo couldn’t bring himself to go to the hospital where his mother was admitted.
Entering the penthouse with a despondent heart, he knew the house was empty and looked at his wristwatch.
As it was getting late, Jian should be at home.
Then he remembered Yonwoo, Ha Jun’s mother, whom he had seen passing by during the day. Regardless of her relationship with Ha Jun, Danwoo knew who she meant to Jian.
If, by any chance, she came to see Jian?
If she met Jian and her heart got hurt, could this situation be explained?
He opened his phone and called Jian.
The dialing sound clicked and disconnected, indicating that Jian had answered the phone.
Danwoo.
Her voice seemed absent-minded.
“Are you on your way home by any chance? It’s too late.”
Danwoo. I’m sorry. I’m at Lake Tower. I’ll sleep here tonight.
“What’s going on?”
No. Just… I felt like I left the house empty for too long.
Danwoo pondered for a moment and answered in a low voice.
“Okay. Then. See you at the office tomorrow.”
Yeah.
After ending the call, Danwoo sat on the sofa, but unable to withstand the silent air, he stood up again.
With a heavy heart, he wanted to see Jian right away.
And for some reason, an inexplicable anxiety made him feel like he shouldn’t leave Jian alone.
