She had anticipated something like this could happen someday. That Jinwook might find out first. But she didn’t expect it to be this soon. He never seemed that interested in her affairs.
“How did you…”
“Find out?” Jinwook replied in a dry tone.
“There’s nothing I can’t find out if I set my mind to it. Especially if it’s about my wife.”
“…”
She had underestimated the extent of his abilities and influence.
“The first I knew of it was November 3rd. You’ve been hiding it for almost a month.”
His cold gaze pierced Yeonju.
“Why didn’t you tell me?”
Yeonju bit her dry lips.

In the darkened atmosphere, she slowly spoke.
“…I was scared.”
Her voice was low and subdued.
“I thought you’d be disappointed.”
“…”
“That you…”
Would leave me.
That I’d lose everything and be alone overnight.
Until Mi-hyeon woke up, the only place she could rely on and fulfill her role was here.
As suffocating and lonely as it was, she couldn’t leave Jinwook’s side.

The future of being cast out from here was too terrifying and bleak to imagine.
Jinwook spoke with a slightly raised voice.
“You were short-sighted. You should’ve at least told me.”
“…”
“This isn’t just your problem; it’s about my future and the company. How could you think to cover this up alone?”
Her shoulders shrank under his barrage of words.
“…I’m sorry.”
Not telling him was a clear mistake. She had nothing else to say but apologize.
Yeonju’s face fell with remorse.
“Really… I’m sorry.”

Even with her head bowed, she could feel his icy stare. Her heart ached painfully.
If I had known this would happen, I should have talked to Jinwook first. I should have mustered up the courage somehow.
‘It’s really over now.’
Yeonju closed her eyes tightly with a face full of regret. Now, whatever he said, she had no words to reply.
‘The only condition I propose for marrying you, Kang Yeonju, is this.’
‘You must plan to get pregnant immediately after our marriage.’
Since she couldn’t fulfill the only condition he had set, the outcome was predictable.
Just when Yeonju was somewhat resigning herself, Jinwook asked,
“Who else knows about this?”
Yeonju lifted her head to look at him. He asked again with a serious face,
“Besides the doctor, does anyone else know?”
“No. I haven’t told anyone.”

“Don’t tell anyone in the future either.”
He added emphatically.
“You must not disclose it to anyone.”
“…Even to your mother?”
“The very person who would be most upset, of course not.”
“But your mother…”
Aeran was the person who most eagerly awaited Yeonju’s pregnancy. It felt too heavy and uncomfortable to keep the truth from her.
Seeing Yeonju’s troubled face, Jinwook coldly replied,
“Weren’t you planning to keep it hidden forever? If I hadn’t found out, you wouldn’t have told me at all.”
“That’s not true. I really planned to tell you someday.”

“…”
“But every time I see your face, I just can’t seem to find my voice…”
As if he didn’t want to hear it, Jinwook cut her off.
“Act as if nothing happened, just like you usually do.”
“…”
“Just focus on taking your medicine and visiting the Oriental Medicine clinic for your health. If my mother or grandfather asks, just say you’re trying.”
His icy voice pierced her heart.
“Just keep doing what you’re doing now, the way you’ve been deceiving me all along.”
When the male lead is punished by carrying the female lead’s child and having periods like a woman
“I’ve given birth to two children for you, yet you still think about him.
Was I nothing but his substitute to you from beginning to end?”
