Helplessly, Chairman Woo truthfully explained.
“He suggested we let it go, saying my son may not be able to make you happy due to his inadequacies.”
“Why are you saying this now? You should have told me earlier!”
Yejin erupted in anger.
He won’t marry me?
I can understand that. I have no intention of forcing someone who dislikes me.
But is the reason he dislikes me because I’m just an average-looking woman who’s nothing more than an ordinary employee?
That too, she could understand. People with unique preferences exist in the world, and Kwon Seungju might be one of them.
However, Yejin couldn’t forgive just one thing.
How dare he try to comfort that woman and give me a face in front of her?
[“Did I hold hands with you? Or did I even kiss you? On what basis do you think I’ll marry you?”]No matter how harshly he confronted her and how gently he spoke to that woman.
[“I only had two meals and a cup of tea with Woo Yejin. So, there’s no need for unnecessary misunderstandings.”]It thoroughly scraped away Yejin’s pride to the ground.
Originally, the thought was that if someone didn’t like her, it was fine, but that changed completely today. She felt that no matter what happened, she had to marry that man.
Even if it’s just the outer shell. She must separate him from that woman and make him suffer until he’s crazy. Otherwise, it seemed impossible to shake off today’s humiliation.
“Yejin, calm down for now. Your dad had his reasons for doing that.”
Trying to calm down his daughter, Chairman Woo somehow managed.
“What reasons?”
“I was planning to meet Chairman Kwon soon and talk. I don’t know why Kwon Seungju suddenly dislikes you, but won’t it be hard for him to refuse my father’s request?”
Yejin’s ears perked up.
“Are you really going to meet Chairman Kwon and talk?”
“Yes. So, trust your dad and wait a bit, Yejin.”
Only then did Yejin ease her mood a little.
“Look straight at me, Dad. I won’t marry anyone other than that man for the rest of my life.”
That evening, Kwon Seungju left work earlier than Eunseo. It seemed like he was waiting for her, not to prepare dinner.
“Let’s talk for a moment.”
Eunseo spoke without looking at his face.
“I’m tired. I’ll go in early and rest.”
“Is this because of Woo Yejin?”
However, before taking a few steps, her arm was caught.
“I told you everything. We’re not in any kind of relationship!”
He genuinely looked frustrated.
“I know. Earlier, Woo Yejin clearly told me. We’re not dating.”
“Then why is this happening?”
Yejin wasn’t the problem. The problem was herself.
If I stay by his side, he can’t fulfill his life goal. I am a harmful presence to him. Ironically, the person who made her realize this so keenly was Jiyeonhwa.
In any case, she couldn’t say those words to him. If she did, and he said something like he doesn’t need to be a successor or something, as long as he has her, it would be awkward.
The problem was that Kwon Seungju was by no means an easy opponent to deceive. Even when he lost his memory, he didn’t fall for the words she poured out without any feelings during the time she tried to push him away.
Eunseo desperately sought excuses. Fortunately, she could find a plausible one without much difficulty.
“It has nothing to do with Woo Yejin. It’s because of me.”
Eunseo raised her head and looked directly at Kwon Seungju.
“That’s what the CEO said. It’s true that I love you, but I can’t meet you while continually searching for Seungju within myself as I look at you.”
She could see him flinch.
“I know. Anyway, Seungju is no longer in this world. So, I tried to forget, but it doesn’t work as I want. Even if I try not to, I find myself still searching for Seungju.”
Words contrary to her feelings seemed to flow out like genuine emotions, surprising herself. Wondering how it came to this, Eunseo bit her lip.
“Every morning when I wake up and face the CEO, I can’t help but wonder and hope that maybe he’ll call me Eunseo. And every time the CEO calls me Yoon Eunseo, I feel disappointed inside. Ah, it’s not the Seungju I loved.”

Short scene 1:
Feng Bai Su looked at the young man crying like a pear blossom in the rain before her, and couldn’t help but doubt her life.
Wasn’t the male lead described as a cold and otherworldly figure in the book?
Then who was this poor little thing crying with swollen red eyes and tear-stained face?
Short scene 2:
Wei Jing Mo stared intently at Feng Bai Su who was about to go out, wanting to say, “Be careful on the road.”
Before he could speak, Feng Bai Su suddenly bent down and bit his cheek.
Her peach blossom eyes were full of disdain: “Tsk! You’re so clingy!”
Wei Jing Mo: “…”
