Jaehyuk looked at her with a vacant gaze at Arin’s words.
‘Yes. If I can’t erase that memory, wouldn’t it be better to cover it with better memories so that it doesn’t come to mind?’
If she could fill Jaehyuk’s empty heart more with herself, wouldn’t he not be sad like he is now?
Arin spoke with that thought.
“Arin, we…”
“Let’s go to Jeju Island next weekend. Oppa’s schedule is busy, so we can’t take a long time, but how about a one-night, two-day trip?”
Jaehyuk stared blankly at her.
“If you feel sorry for me.”
“…Right.”
“Then let’s do it my way.”
In response to Arin’s firm words, Jaehyuk nodded instead of answering. She smiled at his reaction and said,
“I know many good places on Jeju Island, you know? Let’s have a fulfilling time, us.”
Arin approached Jaehyuk and sat down beside him.
“Oppa.”
“…Yeah.”
“Ban Jaehyuk, you fool.”
Arin hugged Jaehyuk.
“If we can’t break up, don’t say such things in the future. Did I forget what I said? If you’re sorry to me, be sorry by my side, as I said to repay beside our child.”
Arin tightly held back her flowing tears.
“…How can I be like this. How can I stand by your side.”
She silently swept Jaehyuk’s back gently.
“Because I told you to be by my side.”
“…”
“If you run away, I’ll catch you. So don’t think about running away cowardly.”
His shoulders, buried in her pure white neck, twitched.
The next day.
Jaehyuk couldn’t sleep the night before.
If Arin weren’t there, he might have been tormented by a terrible nightmare.
“Are you okay?”
When a worried director asked, Jaehyuk nodded slightly.
Whenever the voice of Madam Jung’s atrocities echoed in his mind, she held his hand. Every time he felt trapped by the guilt of not being by her side, she whispered gently in his ear, ‘I love you.’
Arin was like a savior to him.
“Yoon Kyung-sook’s arrest warrant has been issued.”
The kidnapping case, which had been dismissed as a family matter, resurfaced. People were shocked by the details of the case where biological parents kidnapped their child.
In addition, it was revealed that Arin had been abused for a long time. And in the future, more details about her biological father’s case would be revealed. The case was sure to throw a bigger shock.
With this, those who committed sins had begun to slowly pay for their sins, but there was a long way to go.
Jaehyuk composed his expression and looked at the director. The dark and thick shadows under his eyes indirectly showed how tired and difficult Jaehyuk had been.
“They claim they can’t respond due to the pretext of taking care of Mrs. Choi. However, a new arrest warrant was issued after securing new evidence. The witness was already secured on our side, but.”
Kyung-sook visited Arin and Jaehyuk several times, but she had no leniency for her.
“But?”
“The arrest warrant for Mr. Choi is expected soon. However, it could end with a suspended sentence due to his terminal cancer.
“There are no exceptions. The price they must pay. We should make them pay thoroughly for the sins they committed without unnecessary concern for conscience on our part.”
“Understood.”
The director bowed to Jaehyuk and left the office.
“Sigh.”
Jaehyuk, letting out a deep sigh, stood up and walked to the window. Despite the open view, his heart still felt tightly blocked and frustrated.
The last part remained.
It was the legal judgment regarding Madam Jung.
She would fall even further to the point of having no ground beneath her.
And he would watch that process closely.
Jaehyuk muttered to the unreachable sky as if talking to himself.
“Is this truly what you wanted? Leaving a scarlet letter for me to never forget you as my mother for a lifetime.”
He clenched his fist tightly.
“I’d rather there were hell. I hope you suffer there, unable to die even if you want to die, realizing the wrongs you’ve done. How difficult and painful it was for so many people because of you… I mean, how many lives were ruined by you alone.”
Innocent by genetics, guilty without a word.
The world murmured that the sentence for Madam Jung, the sole heiress of the VAN Group, would be light.
But Jaehyuk officially announced.
Male lead is a Love-Obsessed Merman
When he discovers she has gone, he risks everything to pursue her on land, enduring agonizing pain to transform his tail into human legs…
One-line summary: Male lead chases female lead. The male lead’s love is a bit sick, an invincible love brain.
Synopsis
During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.
Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”
Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”
With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.
Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?
He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”
