Jaehyuk turned his gaze to Jung Yeosa. She knew there was no meaning in staying there any longer. But leaving like this made her too angry.
When Jung Yeosa showed no signs of movement, Jaehyuk said firmly,
“I’ll have you escorted.”
“Yes.”
In the end, Jung Yeosa stood up from her seat. However, she stared at her son until just before leaving.
“Be careful going in.”
“…….”
Mrs. Jung didn’t respond.
Jaehyuk, watching his trembling mother’s back, pressed his temple.
After watching his mother disappear, he closed the office door.
“Are you okay?”
“Hmm.”
A sigh burst out of Jaehyuk. When he pressed his temple, Manager Han asked,
“Should I get you some medicine?”
“No, it’s okay. Just continue what you were saying.”
It felt like a storm had swept through. His head had been aching all day.
The same day in the afternoon.
After the store closed, only Arin and Chulyong were on the first floor of the Memorya Yeonnam branch.
“You worked hard again today, Mr. Chulyong. I’ll take care of it. You can leave now.”
Chulyong, wiping the table, replied to her.
“Just this and I’m done.”
“Thank you until the end.”
“No problem. Ah, right! Hyunee came back earlier and is in the underground workshop.”
“Oh, my brother came back?”
“Yeah.”
“Uh, sir.”
“Yes?”
“Did something happen with my brother?”
Since yesterday, Hyunee had not been in a good mood.
“No? There was no such thing.”
Unable to understand why Hyunee’s mood was bad, Chulyong scratched his head in response to her question.
“When did he come?”
“Oh, that. When Sir went to the flower shop, he said he was going straight to the basement.”
“Ah….”
“And Suhani said she’s going to meet Mr. Flour in a bit.”
“I see. Got it. Thank you.”
Arin forced a smile pretending to be okay. Chulyong looked at her for a moment, then started wiping the table again.
“I’m done.”
After Chulyong wiped the tables in the store, he threw the disposable towel into the trash can.
“Well then, shamelessly, I’ll leave early.”
“Yes. See you tomorrow. You did well.”
“See you tomorrow, sir.”
After Chulyong opened and left, Arin sat on the counter chair and organized credit card statements.
‘He said he would give an answer by tomorrow…’
Arin’s thoughts were filled only with Jaehyuk. The day he had to give an answer to him came quickly.
‘Contract relationship… It’s ridiculous. How can my brother and I have a contractual relationship?’
However, although she thought it was natural to refuse the proposal, whenever she tried to contact him to reject it, she couldn’t open her mouth.
At that moment, the sound of the store door opening was heard. Arin raised her head to look at the door and said,
“Did you forget something?”
Thinking it might be Chulyong who came back. However, the person she saw was someone she absolutely didn’t want to face.
“You, let’s talk.”
The person who opened the store door and came in was Mrs. Jung.
“How did you come here?”
Tension filled the air. Arin stared at Mrs. Jung with a cold gaze.
“Can’t I come here? Why did you come looking for me?”
I decided not to be subject to Mrs. Jung anymore. Of course, like Pavlov’s dog, past wounds made her timid. However, Arin resolved herself.
‘I won’t let her do whatever she wants to me like before!’
Whenever she felt overwhelmed by fear, she reminded herself that Mrs. Jung was human after all. In that place where there was no one to help, she repeatedly steeled her heart, knowing it was different from the times when she had no choice but to endure.
Arin met Mrs. Jung’s gaze without avoiding her eyes.
Did Mrs. Jung notice her change? The face of Mrs. Jung, whom she had been seeing, distorted in an instant.
“Arrogant thing!”
Mrs. Jung forcefully stuck out her tongue at Arin. She found Arin’s attitude, who was insolently demanding, annoying. Like Yoon Kyung-sook, Arin also thought of herself as just one of the dogs she controlled.
So, naturally, Mrs. Jung didn’t find Arin’s change pleasant. She became engrossed in pondering how to educate the insolent dog that was constantly begging.
“Sit. I don’t want to see your face for long either.”
Before Arin could give permission, Mrs. Jung occupied one side of the store.
“I plan to stay in the store until I say everything I want to say. If you want to kick me out, don’t resist, sit down now, and listen to me.”
“Don’t force me.”
“Whether it’s force or not, you’ll know if you experience it.”
“This is business interference.”
“I’m Jung Hyo-eon from VAN Group. Do you think a regular police officer can arrest me for business interference?”
Mrs. Jung stared at Arin and said.
‘She’s a really selfish person.’
Although she had the strength to force her out, it couldn’t be done that way.
Considering Mrs. Jung’s personality, she was a woman who would definitely keep her word.
Since she wouldn’t leave, if Mrs. Jung said she would force her out, there would surely be a confrontation.
So, for now, it was better to listen to Mrs. Jung’s words than to endure and insist on leaving.
The problem was that she simply didn’t want to do as Mrs. Jung said.
Ex-husband Wants Reconciliation
One-line summary: Chasing the wife to the crematorium (making an effort to attract someone who has become indifferent), the female lead doesn’t look back, the second male lead takes the position.
Intro:
To repay the kindness of the older generation, Su Mu crossed into a female-dominated world and became a live-in daughter-in-law of the Yan family, single-handedly saving the Yan family from fire and water.
But her husband, Yan Jiyue, the eldest son of the Yan family, treated her with sarcasm and never showed her a good face.
It wasn’t until after Su Mu’s death that this pampered and arrogant young master shed a few fake tears and pretended to want to die for love.
This life’s kindness was enough. If there was a next life, she would definitely kick Yan Jiyue away.
Who knew that the heavens would be so kind as to allow her to be reborn, returning to the time when she had just married into the Yan family.
Su Mu glanced at the Yan eldest son, who still spoke coldly to her, and threw a divorce letter in front of him.
“Let’s divorce!”
***
Yan Jiyue never imagined that he would be reborn. He happily went to find Su Mu, wanting to make up for the mistakes he had made in his ignorant youth.
Wasn’t the reason the heavens allowed him to be reborn to let him reconcile with Su Mu?
But when he pushed open the door to Su Mu’s room, the person lying on the bed was another man.
Su Mu’s personal attendant, Xie Yi.
Yan Jiyue hated him so much that his teeth itched. In front of Su Mu, Xie Yi was a gentle and considerate whisperer of sweet nothings, but in reality, he was vicious-hearted and deliberately sabotaged their husband and wife relationship.
In the previous life, it was he who secretly hid in Su Mu’s coffin and committed suicide, stealing a step ahead of him to be buried with Su Mu.
Yan Jiyue’s eyes were filled with hatred as he cursed, “What kind of thing are you? Your background is lowly, what right do you have to occupy Su Mu?”
Xie Yi looked at the sleeping Su Mu and no longer pretended to be a whisperer of sweet nothings.
He proudly stuck out his belly, “I have the right because my belly is capable of giving the Wife-master a daughter.”
***
Yan Jiyue was consumed with jealousy. He spread rumors that Xie Yi had once been branded with the mark of a “harlot” on his chest.
But on the night Xie Yi cut off the flesh bearing that mark, Su Mu suddenly realized something was amiss.
“How did you know the exact moment I was poisoned? And why did you show up a month early?”
Xie Yi remained silent, blood from his wound soaking through his robes. His sapphire eyes brimmed with anguish – or was it just a flawless act?
Between a once-arrogant husband now seeking redemption, and a gentle soul willing to die for her – who truly held the darkest secrets? And could it be that Su Mu and Yan Jiyue weren’t the only ones given a second chance at life…?
