However, life rarely goes the way one intends. If it did, Gaeul’s father wouldn’t have passed away. It’s needless to say that her father’s business didn’t fail. The interference of the doomed boss played a significant role in things going awry.
“Honey, stop this and let’s talk at home. Don’t regret it after sobering up. Why act like this after patiently waiting all this time?”
Youngmin’s mom desperately pulled her husband. At this point, Daewoon stepped forward. According to Gaeul’s assessment, ‘unnecessarily.’
Daewoon didn’t think of his interference as unnecessary.
He clearly saw the signal from Youngmin’s mom, telling Gaeul not to say anything. He also noticed Gaeul changing her mind and deciding to keep her mouth shut.
“It seems like something unrelated to Han Gaeul, so you two should handle it.”
That’s why he stepped forward. Gaeul seemed incapable of standing up for herself, so Daewoon intervened to prevent her from being covered and pushed aside. In Daewoon’s view, only Gaeul would suffer if they were covered and retreated.
“Who are you? Who asked you to interfere since earlier?”
As if forgetting the pain in his wrist, Youngmin’s dad confronted Daewoon. That’s when Daewoon made up his mind. Let’s take a hit. It will be a shackle for Youngmin’s dad. Since I made it like that. So, Daewoon provoked Youngmin’s dad.
“Me? I’m the office boss causing a commotion. You’re in this state because you’re incapable, getting deceived and causing a scene everywhere. This is how you are, so what did your son learn from you?”

Before finishing his sentence, Daewoon experienced staring at stars in broad daylight. A severe pain shot through his left jaw. It was a mistake to underestimate and offer a hit. Youngmin’s dad seemed to make a living with his body, and his fist was powerful.
“Boss!”
“Youngmin’s dad!”
Daewoon reached out to Gaeul, who ran towards him, trying to stop her.
“Han Gaeul, report to the police. This is home invasion and assault.”
Instantly, the commotion settled. Youngmin’s dad became quiet, seemingly surprised by his own actions. Daewoon thought it was a good idea to take a hit. There’s a reason self-harm charges exist.
“Shall we go to the police, or do you want to talk about it here?”
Enduring the pain, Daewoon asked. Seeing Youngmin’s mom’s apologetic face, it seemed she would soon confess. Daewoon felt no sympathy for her.
“Fine, let’s talk. I have to get my money. You’ve seen me as a poor orphan and let it go until now, and now you’re hitting someone behind my back? Fine, let’s see. Give me my money. I won’t move an inch until I get my money.”
As Youngmin’s dad slumped onto the sofa, Youngmin’s mom’s face turned contemplative.

“Now spill the beans. You won’t be able to hide it for long anyway.”
Daewoon prodded Youngmin’s mom with a cold expression. Clearly, she was the one with something to hide.
Trying to make a child who talks about living without parents experience living like herself, sacrificing her own son. Daewoon had already made that judgment, so warm words were unlikely to come from him.
“Sir, go home and listen to what the lady has to say. If you hear her out…”
“You, come here and sit down. Don’t meddle without knowing the topic.”
Even Gaeul, who was interrupting, received Daewoon’s command. Gaeul placed Youngmin’s mom in a seat and sat next to her.
“How much money did you borrow?”
After everyone took their seats, Daewoon took the lead in the conversation.
“Why should you pay it back? What’s your relationship with Han Gaeul? Are you her lover or something?”
“Sir, please refrain from such comments. Sir, you are causing a scene at my workplace right now. No matter how distressing the situation may be, please refrain from lowering your own dignity any further.”
“What? Did I cause a scene? Fine, you’re quite something.”

Youngmin’s dad, as if ready to grab Gaeul at any moment, rose from his seat.
“Honey, calm down. Gaeul, I’m sorry. This gentleman is not in his right mind now. It’s because of Youngmin’s accident.”
“I heard. Youngmin drove your car, got into an accident, right?”
In a small town, rumors spread quickly. So, among the long-time residents of the neighborhood, there were no secrets about each other.
“Yeah, you must have heard. Youngmin and Gaeul are a couple. The victim refuses to settle, so these gentlemen are upset and drinking during the day…”
Youngmin’s mom turned to the side, fidgeting with her hands. She seemed uneasy.
“Wasn’t it Youngmin’s mom who caused the accident as well?”
Trying to prevent the conversation from going off-topic, Daewoon questioned Youngmin’s mom. She jumped as if startled by the question. She looked at Gaeul with trembling eyes, as if asking if Gaeul had told Daewoon her secret. Gaeul vigorously shook her head in denial. Gaeul also seemed surprised by Daewoon’s words.
“Gaeul, bring a hangover remedy.”
With a sympathetic tone, Daewoon told Gaeul. It seemed that the gentleman sitting across from him would be deeply troubled. You could tell from the almost tearful expression on Youngmin’s mom’s face.
