“…I’m sorry. A person who is an educator, teaching not to judge based on background or conditions, yet showing such a pathetic side.”
“Even educators are human. If I were Chairman, I might have opposed me too.”
“Just looking at Lajin herself, she’s a very fine person. It’s not just empty words; I mean it sincerely.”
“Thank you. I fully understand Chairman’s feelings.”
Jun-gyu’s reaction was as expected, so it didn’t hurt too much.
How many people would accept a woman with another man’s child as a family?
Especially in a situation where the father’s family doesn’t accept her.
Lajin pressed her palm against her chest, where pain was throbbing, tightly clenching the pain.
Realizing once again that she was not welcome anywhere.
‘Even if I’m like this, I’ll raise Tuntun to be a child loved and welcomed by anyone.’
To do that, she had to become strong. She couldn’t easily waver in imagination or thought.
Taking a deep breath to gather her thoughts, Lajin straightened her posture.
“I’ll leave as soon as I give birth.”
At Lajin’s words, Jun-gyu’s gaze sank.
“So please don’t tell Chairman. I beg you.”
Watching Lajin bow her head again, Jun-gyu quietly stood up and grabbed her shoulders, lifting her up.
“…Chairman?”
“I remember when our daughter had her first child a long time ago. I wondered how the tough girl would become a mother, but as soon as I knew she was pregnant, her gaze changed. She looked just like Lajin does now.”
Jun-gyu smiled gently.
“Pregnant women shouldn’t bow their heads recklessly. They should always look forward, and the child will follow the mother’s gaze.”
Feeling choked up at his words, Lajin bit her lip.
“I have no right to casually interfere or meddle in other people’s lives.”
“Does that mean…?”
“Sunwoo said he would quit the company and help with the foundation.”
“What? Sunwoo oppa?”
Jun-gyu nodded.
“I’ve been suggesting to him for a long time to take over the foundation as a senior, but he avoided it, saying he’s not cut out for it. However, when he comes down and helps occasionally, he seems to enjoy it. Looking back now, maybe he didn’t want to leave Seoul, where Lajin is.”
So that’s it. It was a fact I didn’t know at all.
“So I’m grateful to Lajin. Or maybe Sunwoo changed his mind. Lajin probably doesn’t know, but Sunwoo calls me more than once a day. How capable Lajin is, how foolish I am to let go of such a person, he explains very loquaciously, not like him at all.”
Her cheeks flushed red.
“I had no idea.”
“Haha. It’s not necessary to choose a secretary in person, and there’s no program that Lajin can’t handle. She has excellent insight. So I’m learning how to use video conferencing apps these days.”
Jun-gyu extended his hand to her.
“I hope Lajin’s strong gaze doesn’t waver. People with such eyes are rare.”
“Ah…”
“Please take care from now on.”
With trembling hands, Lajin shook hands with the hand Jun-gyu offered.
“Thank you. Really, thank you. I will work hard.”
Fortunately, she could work now.
In fact, she didn’t think Jun-gyu would allow it, so she had been looking at job listings lately.
For Lajin, who was about to give birth, there weren’t many jobs available. They were looking for someone who could work diligently without taking breaks, or at best, simple part-time work for a month or two.
However, she couldn’t aim for a big company and use her credentials. If she did, it might reach Jaehun’s ears.
Although she had saved some money, she had been sending living expenses to her foster parents as a way to repay the kindness they had shown in raising her. So compared to her salary, her savings were not very high.
She received severance pay, but it wouldn’t last forever.
During the moment when she felt anxious about not being able to support herself, Jun-gyu’s words were like a refreshing rain.
“I will work hard. Really… Thank you so much.”
Looking at Lajin, who was tearing up, Jun-gyu once again felt sorry and patted her shoulder.
“If you have any difficulties, tell me. I’ll think like a grandfather.”
Lajin nodded, patting her cheek with the back of her hand, somehow feeling that Jun-gyu resembled William.
Three months later.
“Chairman, it’s time for the meeting.”
Without responding to Yoon-hee’s words, Jaehun stood up from his seat and put on his jacket.
“I received a call from Geonyoung Chemical Osungjae’s president. He requested a meeting after the meeting. What should we do?”
“To the home office. Substitute dinner with a packed meal.”
“Yes, understood. I’ll reserve a table at ‘Yunhwagak.'”
Jaehun, who had fastened his tie, left the home office. Yoon-hee followed, holding a tablet.
“The factory facilities…”
“Yesterday evening, there was a brief stoppage due to electrical pipe replacement, but there are no other issues reported.”
“Report everything without missing even a small issue.”
“Yes, Chairman.”
“Contact…”
Despite the daily questions for three months, Yoon-hee lowered her head deeply and answered.
“There were none.”
Although he had expected it, Jaehun couldn’t completely let go of the possibility.
Tock, tock. While walking down the long corridor to go to the meeting room, he heard a vibrating sound from his jacket pocket.
[Manager Kwon]“Secretary Jung, bring my tie from the home office. I want to change it to a different one.”
“Yes, understood.”
As Yoon-hee turned around, Jaehun pressed the call button.
[Dash] Chairman, I’ve found a trace.The black eyes that were once lifeless widened significantly.
“Go there right now.”
When yandere male lead believes she loves him — but she never did
“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.
Synopsis:
