Younger Man at Work (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 143

When they arrived at the Yeonsa-dong house, Butler Kim was waiting.

“The sun’s setting, so driving will be hard—let’s leave now.”

Hye Sun wanted to return right away to the orchard. She’d longed for her mother for so long, yet every time they met, they had to part again so soon—it was hard for both Seung Joo and Eun Seo to bear the disappointment.

Looking at those two like a pair of cockroaches, Hye Sun sincerely wished from the bottom of her heart: May they live happily together for a thousand years, buried side by side even in death.
