Younger Man at Work (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 175

[Hey, I know you didn’t do it on purpose, but from now on, please be a little more careful when dealing with this person.]

Yeon Hwa had confirmed Chairman Kwon’s feelings. He cared so deeply for her and their baby that he’d even scolded Kang Hye Sun, someone he’d always been considerate toward.

Though he might not love her, Kwon Yong Chul was an absolute presence in her world—after all, her fate and her son’s rested entirely on Kwon Yong Chul’s affection. It was solely thanks to Kwon Yong Chul that Yeon Hwa had risen from being little more than a café waitress at Regina to becoming the esteemed madam of the household.

Thus, Yeon Hwa naturally assumed Hye Sun’s goal was to reclaim Chairman Kwon for herself—to take back the rightful position as his wife that Yeon Hwa had stolen. From Yeon Hwa’s perspective—someone who’d spent her whole life clinging to Kwon Yong Chul’s fickle affections—this assumption was the limit of her understanding.

That’s why showing off her perfect marital harmony with Chairman Kwon right in front of Hye Sun felt utterly satisfying to Yeon Hwa. She was profoundly grateful to the baby for arriving at just the right moment.

Although there was slight spotting indicating a possible miscarriage risk, she wasn’t particularly worried. If she did miscarry, it would simply earn her Chairman Kwon’s sympathy—she could even blame it on being frightened by Kang Hye Sun.

To Yeon Hwa, Seung Hyun was her only child; the baby in her womb was merely a tool to keep Kwon Yong Chul tied to her. How could she possibly feel affection for a child not even born yet—especially when she wasn’t even certain whose it truly was?

Fortunately, Kwon Yong Chul was the type of man who believed Yeon Hwa had lived her whole life devoted only to him. He’d never suspected her in the slightest, which was precisely why she’d managed to swap out several young lovers over the years without ever getting caught. Back when Seung Hyun was born, she’d only been his mistress, and since they hadn’t been together long, he’d probably discreetly done a paternity test then—but now, after nearly thirty years together, he certainly wouldn’t start doubting her out of the blue.

So all that mattered was matching blood types.

Her young lover, though an unknown actor, was clearly a celebrity. A quick online search pulled up his official profile instantly. Fortunately, the heavens seemed to favor her—he was blood type A, the same as Chairman Kwon.

Thus, everything was settled. Yeon Hwa herself had no intention of ever requesting a paternity test. The child in her womb was unquestionably Kwon Yong Chul’s.

“Secretary Yang, could you come in for a moment? We need to start preparing for the Chairman’s sixtieth birthday.”

With the lightest of hearts, Yeon Hwa summoned the Chairman’s secretary to begin planning a surprise party.

“Ugh, seriously? Now I have to write a handwritten letter to my future father-in-law? I don’t even know what to say!”
