“Well, I’m not sure if I’m the one misunderstanding, or if I’m aware of the truth that you want to hide.”
With the excited voice of Ye Rim, the car smoothly came to a stop at the destination. The handbrake was raised, and the calm voice of Sun Woo overlapped over it.
“Let’s talk upstairs.”
The man who quickly unbuckled his belt got out of the driver’s seat. Then he opened the rear car door and easily scooped up Eun Jae in his arms.
The silence, which had been hard to break in the elevator heading to the man’s house, continued again.
The broad back of the man, striding down the hallway with Eun Jae in his arms, was visible.
Following the man’s steps, the corridor sensor lights turned on one after another.
Only after all five sensor lights were lit, the spacious living room became visible. The moonlight, pouring in through a large window, brightly illuminated the man and Eun Jae.
Although she knew he was a doctor, Ye Rim looked around the expansive house with wide eyes, as if she had not expected it to be this much.
In the meantime, the man effortlessly held Eun Jae with one arm and turned the doorknob of the room located next to the living room, lightly pushing the door open with his foot.
He headed straight towards the large bed that was immediately visible as soon as the door opened. Ye Rim glanced at him while quickly looking around the room.
Contrasting the whitetoned living room was the bedroom in a dark black tone, and the comforting white bedding that looked like it had clouds laid upon it caught her eye first.
Two head cushions, two pillows.
The caring figure, who gently laid Eun Jae down on the kingsized bed and covered her with the blanket, was as natural as flowing water.
The gaze of Ye Rim, who had been scanning the man’s actions over her shoulder, was caught as Sun Woo turned around. As soon as Ye Rim’s eyes met Sun Woo’s, she started pouring out questions as if she had been waiting.
“Where does Eun Jae like?”
Without giving the man a chance to answer, Ye Rim violently shook her head from side to side, as if telling him not to say anything.
“It’s a marriage where you both love each other, right? Isn’t it?”
After seeing off Ye Rim and returning to the bedroom, Sun Woo sat down on the bed and looked down at the peacefully sleeping face of Eun Jae.
“I don’t know what the circumstances are, but since it’s Eun Jae’s choice, I want to respect it. But if, really if… you are exploiting our Eun Jae’s weakness and shaking it, I wish you would stop…. Eun Jae can’t stop.”
No matter what kind of conversation they had, that friend seemed to know a certain extent about the inside story of this marriage.
“Please let her go first. Eun Jae has someone she likes.”
“She’s liked him since high school, and she’s been looking for him for a long time.”
And the story that oddly scratched her nerves.
From Sun Woo’s perspective, it couldn’t but be a nuisance. Because he didn’t know how much they knew, he had to alleviate as many possible points of doubt as he could.
Reassuring Ye Rim that it wasn’t like that, Sun Woo returned to the bedroom where Eun Jae was lying and looked down at her blankly.
Do you know what kind of mess you’ve created today?
“You shouldn’t sleep so comfortably like this.”
Contrary to his threatening tone, Sun Woo’s lips were curving into a deep smile. The woman clearly violated the contract, yet instead of getting angry, he kept smiling.
It seemed like something was seriously wrong in one place. So much so that it couldn’t be fixed by ordinary means. And the bigger problem was that he didn’t think that feeling was too bad.
Sun Woo stared blankly at the woman, keeping his expression.
Sun Woo’s hand moved impulsively as his gaze shifted from the round forehead, to the sleek nose, and finally, to the healthy, glossy, red lips.
The hand that had been heading toward the woman’s forehead moved down, brushing her flushed cheek and finally landing on her moist, soft lips.
They were so close he could hear her soft breaths. His mind was beginning to fog up from the sensation of touch when Eun Jae’s eyes suddenly fluttered open.
“Ah! My contract husband!”
“Ah…you startled me.”
Startled as if caught doing something wrong, Sun Woo recoiled from her. Had she not woken up, it would have been another story.
He seemed relatively calm, but his heartbeats were not. They were pounding faster and harder than usual.
“Is this a dream? Why are you here?”
“Eun Jae, wake up. This is not a dream.”
Sun Woo wrinkled his brow, as if he was irritated.
“Sir.”
“If you call me sir one more time—”
“Whether it’s Eun Jae or sir, both end with s. What’s the difference?”
“Listen, Eun—”
As Sun Woo narrowed his eyebrows again, about to call Eun Jae’s name, she suddenly sat up and cut off his words, shouting at him.
“Why, Yoon Sun Woo!”
“What? Yoon Sun Woo?”
“Why, is it annoying because I’m using informal speech? You’re using it too. I’m dreaming so I thought I’d try using informal speech again.”
Male lead first thought she played hard to get, only to realize she
really disliked him
