“Are you saying that now?”
She wiped her eyes with her trembling hands and said, “Then what should I do in front of you…”
From the day Arin decided to meet Jaehyuk, Seo Yoo Hyun became a different person.
He, who used to be careful not to cause even the slightest harm to Arin’s body and mind, now callously tore apart her heart. The feeling that something was wrong couldn’t be erased, but he couldn’t stop.
He couldn’t control his own emotions. Emotions roller-coastered up and down.
“If you just don’t meet, we can go back to how it was before! If you just close your heart, everything will be solved. Can’t you do that? Arin, I’m begging you. Don’t go to that man. Let’s live like we have until now.”
The angry Hyun began to plead. He could kneel as much as he needed if it meant keeping her by his side. Even if the cartilage in his knees wore away, it didn’t matter.
But Arin firmly shook her head.
“You know that’s not possible, right, Oppa?”
Despair filled Hyun’s face.
“Arin.”
“Please take care of Memorya.”
“Are you crazy for that guy!”
The one who begged now reproached her. Despite knowing that his feelings were fluctuating, he didn’t hold back in his words.
“Do you like that man so much?”
“Even if you say that, it doesn’t matter to me. As long as I’m not like that.”
Perhaps due to her delicate skin, her eye rims swelled up.
Hyun reached out towards Arin. But she swiftly turned her head, avoiding his gaze. The thought that she rejected him made his heart sink. His hand, which couldn’t reach her, fumbled in the empty air.
“Oppa, I’ve received a lot from you. I know I have an indebtedness to you that I can never repay for helping me live again.”
Her voice gradually became wet. She smiled, but it seemed like she was crying. The smile that appeared on her pale face looked sadder to him than ever before. He felt a pain as if his heart was being torn apart. But he couldn’t do anything.
“So, no matter what you think, it’s okay. As Oppa says, I’ll be the bad person. Instead…”
Her teary eyes forced a smile.
“Please take care of Memorya. And I’m sorry, for not keeping the promise to be with you until the end. Take care, Oppa. It’s a selfish thing to say, but I hope you genuinely find happiness.”
With those words, she left. Hyun urged himself to follow her, watching her retreating figure.
‘Chase her, Seo Yoo Hyun, chase her right now.’
But Hyun couldn’t move. Something around his spine blocked him, making him feel choked and frustrated. The pain, squeezing his heart, surged.
“No. This can’t be.”
After Arin’s figure completely disappeared, Hyun collapsed.
Arin walked briskly outside. Outside the store, Cheol-yong and others were waiting.
“Boss.”
“Oh, Cheol-yong.”
After glancing behind him, Cheol-yong spoke.
“Are you leaving now?”
“Yes.”
“I see.”
“Cheol-yong.”
“Yes.”
“I’m sorry. I couldn’t discuss it in advance…”
While others may not know, Cheol-yong was a member who started the Yeonnam branch together. Even if it was in name only, until the main branch in Jeju was organized, he was the one responsible for managing the Yeonnam branch as the manager.
Procedurally, I should have consulted with Cheol-yong before making a decision. But I couldn’t.
“Sincerely, I feel sorry for Cheol-yong. The same goes for Suhan.”
Cheol-yong chose his words carefully and then spoke.
“It’s okay, Boss. In reality, things don’t always go as planned in life.”
“Cheol-yong…”
“Just like I like Hyun, I also like you, Boss. I think it’s best if you feel comfortable. So, I’ll respect and follow your decision.”
“…Cheol-yong.”
“Besides, I’m aware that there’s an issue between Hyun and me right now. I somehow feel like I know the reason why Boss is leaving, probably because of Memorya.”
Cheol-yong’s comfort brought tears to Arin’s eyes.

Top celebrity Yu Shu suddenly fell into a coma during a concert.
Research scientist Yan Jin fainted in the lab after working overtime.
Two people with no connection were rushed to the same hospital.

Suddenly, the entire nation discovered that a live streaming app had been forcibly installed on their phones.
Upon opening it, they heard the two discussing how to escape from the brothel.
The entire internet was in an uproar.

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
[Although it’s inappropriate, I also want a young and handsome boyfriend to have my child.]
