“Because of that?”

[Dash] Well, I’m not sure if I can say.

“It’s okay. Please tell me.”

[Dash] There’s news about Jaehun’s marriage.

Lajin almost missed her phone. She took a deep breath, but her fingertips had become cold and trembled.

[Dash] I just sent you a link. Would you like to check it?

When Lajin clicked on the link Sunwoo sent, an article titled “Geonyeong Group and Domun Group, Merger Due to Marriage?” appeared. It was uploaded just 4 hours and 13 minutes ago.

It takes about 4 hours by car from Seoul to Yeonjun, and at the fastest, about 3 hours and 30 minutes remain.

Jaehun rushed to Yeonjun as soon as the article was uploaded.

[Dash] It seems like there’s a lot you’d want the chief secretary Lajin to handle. Probably because it’s more convenient for someone who has worked closely for a long time.

“……Is there any chance of a contract between Geonyeong Food and the foundation? Like for meals.”

[Dash] As far as I know, there is none. The contract with the food service company was renewed not long ago. Once a connection is made, it’s hard to change.

Then, could the reason for coming to Yeonjun be… because of me?

Probably, since the other party disappeared before the contract period ended, he might want to make sure the contract termination is definite.

For example, he might not know what to say to the person who appears later and becomes his wife…

Lajin never thought about that. But Jaehun’s thoughts might be different.

‘Could it be… he didn’t notice the pregnancy.’

As she thought about it, cold sweat ran down her back.

Even if she was careful, she might have unconsciously revealed it, or perhaps Yoonhee made a mistake and found out.

Whatever happened, the process didn’t matter.

The reason Jaehun was trying to find her, who was pregnant, was probably for one thing.

To eliminate the aftermath.

‘I didn’t know it was progressing so quickly.’

Seeing that he came to her right after the article was published, it seemed that her thoughts were probably correct.

“……Oppa.”

[Dash] Yeah, Lajin.

“In the future, even if you hear what I have to say, I hope you won’t tell Director that I’m here.”

Sunwoo immediately responded.

[Dash] Don’t worry. I’m always on your side, Lajin.

“We should talk about it in person, but.”

[Dash] What is it?

Lajin closed her eyes tightly for a moment and then opened her mouth.

“I’m pregnant, Oppa.”

Beyond the phone, she heard Sunwoo taking a deep breath.

A short exhale, followed by a big inhale.

He repeated that sequence, and Sunwoo remained silent for a while.

Lajin also silently waited, understanding his silence.

[Dash] Lajin, you… I mean, if I didn’t mishear…

“Yes. I’m pregnant.”

[Dash] Pregnant. Pregnant with… maybe.

“Yes. It’s Director’s child.”

A bigger and denser silence fell than just a moment ago.

[Dash] Sigh.

With a sigh, Sunwoo asked in a subdued voice.

[Dash] Does Jaehun know?

“No. He doesn’t know at all.”

[Dash] How could this happen…

“Let’s talk about it when we meet, Oppa. Please don’t tell Director under any circumstances. I’m begging you.”

[Dash] Okay, let’s meet first. I’ll come down tomorrow. I’ll talk to Grandfather about postponing the interview that day, so don’t worry.

“Thank you, Oppa. Then let’s meet at a halfway point. It must be tough for you alone, Oppa.”

[Dash] No. I’ll move, so be careful. Got it?

“……Thank you.”

[Dash] Anything you need?

As soon as she heard those words, an image of Jaehun’s face flashed reflexively in her mind, but Lajin shook her head vehemently.

“Nothing.”

Nothing. There shouldn’t be.

Her words were a pledge to herself, much like making a promise to herself.

Right now, she’s lucky to have someone’s help, but later, she’ll have to handle everything alone.

She had enough intentions to give Sunwoo a proper example as well.

[Dash] Okay. If you need any help, just let me know.

Lajin responded with a faint smile, but she didn’t say anything.
Having ended the call with Sunwoo like that, Lajin leaned back against the bed and wrapped her hands around her stomach.

“We’ll be fine together. Mom will work hard.”

Even as she said this, Jaehun’s side profile, which she had seen earlier, wouldn’t leave Lajin’s mind.

‘His expression seems to have become much harsher.’

Could it be that things didn’t go as planned during his business trip to New York?

There was no mention of such problems when she talked to William a while ago. He mentioned that everything was going smoothly.

William, who had admired Lajin’s designed package layout, suddenly became angry without any warning.

[Dash] Working with Chief Director Seo, I understand now. I can see how hard it must have been for you all this time.

William, who used to call Jaehun Chief Director Seo, omitted the title and spoke with an irritated voice.

[Dash] He’s not a human but a monster! If I don’t stop him, he won’t rest at all. Do you know why the faces of Geonyeong employees are the color of cement?

After Being Cheated On, She Picked Up a Treasure (Female-dominant)

One-line summary: The husband I married on a whim had been secretly in love with me for a long time.

On the day when Jun Shao finally obtained the imperial decree for her marriage, Lan Qu, the person she had admired for six years, defied the decree and ran away.

Her gentleness and devotion, her promise of a lifetime together, were all disregarded by him. Instead, he dreamed of entering the palace to serve the Emperor’s sister as a sixth-rank attendant.

News of this incident spread throughout the capital, and the alleys in front of and behind the Lan mansion were crowded with people who came to watch the commotion.

Jun Shao should have been embarrassed and angry.

But someone stepped in to protect her dignity.

The figure was in a miserable state, yet still possessed an undeniable elegance and handsomeness.

The young lord struggled to climb the wall of the Lan mansion and shouted to her, “If he won’t marry you, I will!”

So, Jun Shao took advantage of the situation and married the person.

She thought the young lord did it to save the Lan family from the crime of defying the imperial decree, but never imagined that from beginning to end, what he coveted was her.

*

After the wedding, Jun Shao felt like she was living in a dream.

Her Wife-master was as beautiful as a fairy in a painting, skilled in the six arts, well-versed in poetry and literature, capable of being gentle and attentive, and also grand and dignified. Most importantly, she was the only one in his heart and eyes.

Jun Shao didn’t know how Lan Shiwu, as a illegitimate son without a father and blessed with beauty, had managed to preserve his purity, recklessly escape, and use his last ounce of strength to ruin his own reputation, all because of his love for her, just to stand before her.

She could only see him gazing at her with eyes full of love, and when she bestowed a name upon him, his eyes shone like stars.

“You have come to me like a weary bird perching on a branch. I shall call you A Qi.”
