“Madam, I will take my leave now.”
Chaerin looked at her secretary standing in the entranceway. He had just helped a drunken Inhyuk into the house and was now bowing his head in farewell.
With her usual grace, Chaerin responded,
“Alright, you’ve worked hard.”
As the secretary left, Chaerin walked towards the living room sofa, where Inhyuk lay in his suit, passed out.
He had drunk himself into such a state at the evening gathering that he could barely walk.
Approaching him, Chaerin said,
“Darling, let’s go to bed.”
Inhyuk just sighed heavily in response, the scent of dry wine filling the air.
Chaerin leaned in to grab his arm.
“Darling, at least take off your clothes…”
“I’ll sleep here. You go on to bed.”
Inhyuk closed his eyes without further comment.
“…….”
Chaerin watched him for a moment, then slowly withdrew her hand.
She turned towards the dressing room. Removing her elaborate earrings and wristwatch, Chaerin reflected on the evening’s events.
‘There’s absolutely no need to worry, our marriage is very good.’
Jinwook’s confident face and the way he affectionately wrapped his arm around Yeonju’s shoulder flitted through her mind.
‘We’ll share good news soon, so please wait patiently.’
Chaerin bit her lip as she thought about their seemingly happy marriage. Her face twisted with spite, and her eyes reddened with anger.
She threw the watch she was holding to the floor.
“!!”
The golden watch shattered into pieces. Chaerin seethed with rage, humiliation, and jealousy.
She couldn’t stand how Yeonju, who had usurped Jinwook, seemed to lead a peaceful life.
‘I should have been in that place…!!’
It was she who had watched Jinwook for a long time, dreaming of marrying him and preparing herself to be the perfect wife.
Then Yeonju appeared out of nowhere, ruining the life she had planned.
She had stolen Jinwook, her dreams, everything.
“I’ll make you pay…”
She vowed to see Yeonju suffer, to find her weakness and drive her out.
Chaerin bit her lip so hard it nearly bled.
“Hello, sister.”
Yeonju greeted someone at the front door.
Facing her was a woman with a kindly image, smiling warmly.
“Welcome, Yeonju.”
This was Jinwook’s older sister, Haeyoung, with striking yet distinct features resembling Jinwook’s.
Haeyoung was six years older than Jinwook and had given birth to her second child a month ago. Yeonju had been unable to visit Haeyoung due to a cold at the time of the birth, which was why she was visiting her house now.
Yeonju handed her a shopping bag with gifts.
“Congratulations on the baby. I wasn’t sure what to get, so I chose something that looked nice to me, but I hope you like it.”
“Oh, you didn’t have to bring anything. Thank you, I’ll use it well.”
Yeonju glanced around and asked,
“Where’s the baby?”
“She just fell asleep. Come, let’s go to this room.”
“Shouldn’t we avoid waking her up?”
“It’s alright. Unlike my first child who wakes up easily, the second one sleeps so deeply that you could lift her out of bed and she wouldn’t notice.”
Yeonju followed Haeyoung into the baby’s room, which was adorned with charming interior decorations and accessories.
Approaching a wooden crib in the corner of the room, Yeonju saw a baby sleeping soundly, wrapped in a white blanket.
Upon seeing the baby, Yeonju instinctively opened her mouth in awe.
The baby’s face was as small as her fist, and the tiny, neatly arranged eyes, nose, and mouth were fascinating and adorable.
“Oh my… she’s so beautiful.”
Yeonju couldn’t take her eyes off the baby, filled with admiration.
Seeing her, Haeyoung commented,
“Yeonju, your baby will be even prettier. Both parents are so attractive, the baby will be beautiful no matter who it resembles.”
Yeonju blushed slightly at her words.
“Do you wish for a daughter or a son?”
Yeonju answered without hesitation.
“I don’t mind either…”
She continued, still captivated by the baby.
“I just wish for a healthy child.”
“That’s right, having a healthy child is the greatest blessing.”
Yeonju gazed at the baby’s round, moon-like face, radiant and pretty. The long, black eyelashes, the tiny nose, everything about the baby seemed angelic.
She longed for such a precious being in her life, confident that she would cherish it more than anyone.
Looking down at the baby, Yeonju whispered,
“Still, if I could choose… I’d want the baby to resemble Jinwook.”
“Why is that?”
“His face is handsome, he’s tall, and smart.”
“And what about resembling you?”
Yeonju slowly shook her head.
No, the baby should not resemble her.
It might inherit her misfortune.
It should resemble the perfect, flawless Jinwook.
Haeyoung watched Yeonju and said,
“Yeonju, you will make a wonderful mother.”
“Me? Why?”
“The way you look at the baby. You seem like a mother who would give a lot of love.”
Haeyoung added with a smile,
“Like someone who would give everything for her child.”
Yeonju knew the meaning of giving everything to a child. Her mother had raised her that way.
Male lead first thought she played hard to get, only to realize she
really disliked him
