She temporarily put the luggage on the side of the road and was about to call a taxi with her phone when a black sedan slid in front of her, and the car window smoothly rolled down.
In the driver’s seat was Kwon Seungju’s face.
“Why did you come here?”
“Get in.”
He was alone without a secretary or a driver.
“I’m sorry, but I’m on my way to meet my brother right now.”
Eunseo had told him in the elevator that she found her brother. Secretary Choi must have reported it to him.
As expected, Seungju did not show a surprised expression even after hearing Eunseo’s words.
“I know. I’ll take you there, so get in for now.”
“You don’t need to do that if you’re busy.”
It was a weekday, and by now, Seungju would have already started working, and there would still be time left. Although weekends and weekdays meant nothing to Seungju anyway.
“I have something to say on the way.”
“I have nothing to discuss with the CEO.”
Eunseo said coldly. She had already made up her mind to completely shut off her feelings for him. Now that she had found Eunho, she only needed to focus on him. Then, this pain would eventually dull.
“Other than what’s between us.”
But he added, hesitating a bit.
“It’s about your brother.”
Eunseo intuitively felt that something was off. Why would Kwon Seungju hesitate to talk about her brother?
“……”
While hesitating, he personally got out of the car and loaded Eunseo’s luggage into the trunk.
With this, she had no choice. Eventually, Eunseo got into the passenger seat, letting him lead the way.
Before Eunseo could ask where they were going, he had already entered “House of Big Love” into the navigation. Since he had already mentioned the facility’s name to Secretary Choi, it wasn’t strange that he knew.
“Have you met your brother?”
“No. We have to wait for the results of the genetic test, so I haven’t met him yet. I received the test results yesterday, and today is our first meeting.”
“Do you think you’ll recognize him by his face?”
She wanted to say yes, but honestly, she wasn’t sure. The face she remembered was from when Eunho was six years old, and now he was twenty.
“I honestly don’t know.”
“Then is there no way to confirm if he’s your brother?”
There was a slight irritation in Eunseo’s voice. She didn’t want to meet someone she didn’t want to see, and she didn’t want him to keep sprinkling salt on her wounds by bringing up good things.
“The genetic test results have already come out, right?”
“But there could be errors in the test results.”
Eunseo thought it wasn’t like Kwon Seungju to say that. How could there be errors in DNA test results? Why was someone who judged things with such cold logic making comments like her deceased mother?
Her mother didn’t trust things like DNA tests. No matter how much Eunseo said it was a scientific method and completely accurate, her mother was stubborn. What did she know about such scientific methods? Even though it wasn’t her personally conducting the test, what did she know about someone falsifying the results?
So her mother hid one feature that could identify Eunho until the end. It was a physical characteristic not revealed in flyers, banners, or the missing child database.
“There is a way to confirm.”
“How?”
Instead of answering, Eunseo countered.
“Why do you keep asking that?”
“There’s no such thing as one hundred percent in this world. Keep the possibility in mind.”
It was a cautious tone, not typical of a straightforward man. In fact, he seemed to carefully choose his words, avoiding what he really wanted to say.
What did he originally want to say?
The moment she thought about it, Eunseo felt a chill at the tip of her head.
“You know what I mean.”
“Is that possible? No, who, why on earth would do such a thing?”
“It’s possible, if it’s my mother. …She has reasons for that.”
Eunseo felt like her heart had stopped.
Was it Jiyeonhwa, whom she thought was benevolent?
Did she manipulate her own brother as a fake?
“There’s no way that could happen. No matter what, how can a person do such a thing…”
Neither the eighteen-year-old Seungju until now nor the current one had ever said anything about her own mother.
And at this moment, for the first time, she defined her mother.
“That woman is not human.”
In just one word.
Upon arriving at the ‘House of Big Love,’ the person in charge came out to greet them. The director led Eunseo to a quiet courtyard behind the facility and said,
“Wait here for a moment; I’ll bring Eunho out.”
Each second felt like a year. Just before Eunseo was about to lose her breath, the director came out of the building, holding someone’s hand.
It was a young man with a height of about 180 centimeters and a sunny expression.
“Okay, Eunho. Go to your sister.”
Male lead is a Love-Obsessed Merman
When he discovers she has gone, he risks everything to pursue her on land, enduring agonizing pain to transform his tail into human legs…
One-line summary: Male lead chases female lead. The male lead’s love is a bit sick, an invincible love brain.
Synopsis
During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.
Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”
Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”
With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.
Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?
He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”
