When You Forget Me (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 48

Two heavyweight men were dining together in a private room of an elegant Chinese restaurant. One was the chairman of a major conglomerate capable of wielding influence in politics; the other was a leading presidential candidate for next year’s election in South Korea.

Although their previous few meetings had eased the initial tension, various circumstances had pushed their verbal caution to the extreme. Eun Chae, caught between them, felt so stifled she thought she might choke. Having eaten in silence without uttering a word, she finally wiped her mouth with a napkin.

“We’re practically family now. It’s truly heartwarming and wonderful how we’re helping each other like this.”

At Representative Han Ji Chang’s remark, Chairman Song Myung Hwan chuckled heartily and nodded.

With only three months left until the presidential election, Representative Han Ji Chang had suffered a blow because of his son, Han Seung Yoon, but his approval ratings hadn’t plummeted to rock bottom.

“I understand. Besides, it’s not uncommon for a young man to have more than one lover.”

Though the response was utterly repulsive and nonsensical, Representative Han nodded contentedly, as if genuinely appreciating the empathy.

“Ah, and I must also apologize to Miss Eun Chae for this inconvenience. We’ll reschedule the wedding ceremony soon….”

“I’m sorry, but let’s consider the marriage canceled.”

Eun Chae, who had been sipping jasmine tea, firmly set her cup down on the table, cutting off Representative Han.
