In this frustrating situation, Seo-yeon, the sister of the man who caused significant losses to Hanguk Group, and who also had a strained relationship with Seong-jun, became an excellent outlet for venting frustration.
“I hope you bring it as soon as possible. The taste will diminish if the tea cools down.”
Even though Seo-yeon obediently bent down and went inside, Hwayoung’s actions of attaching conditions once again caused the atmosphere of the gathering to plummet in an instant.
Expressions of not understanding why she, an unrecognized daughter-in-law, was being harassed like this were evident.
‘Why is there still no contact?’
However, at that moment, Seoyeon had no mental capacity to pay attention to Hwayoung’s actions or the reactions of others due to analyzing Seongjun’s behavior, who still hadn’t responded to her messages.
She simply nodded with a composed face and turned away. No one saw Seoyeon, who turned away with a poker face, leaving the place.
Seoyeon moved her steps to the dining room. The housemaid, wearing an apron, recognized Seoyeon and approached her.
“Madam, is there anything you need?”
Seoyeon smiled lightly at the maid and spoke.
“Could you prepare more dessert?”
“If there’s anything like that, please call me.”
“It’s okay. Please prepare plenty of tea and dessert. Enough for my mother and the guests. I’ll take it with me.”
“Oh, I see. Understood.”
When Seoyeon returned to her seat with the dessert and tea prepared by the maid, an alert window appeared on the screen of the phone placed on the table.
Seoyeon quickly checked the sender’s name. It was her husband. Seoyeon glanced at the message.
[7 PM.]However, soon after, she made an awkward expression at Seongjun’s unenthusiastic response.
‘What’s with 7 PM? It’s not like he’s coming at 7 PM. What’s the significance of 7 PM? He could have sent it with more courtesy even to a complete stranger.’
Thinking about it, her husband was originally far from being considerate and always prioritized work, so she didn’t understand why she was suddenly so angry.
After grumbling in her mind for a while, Seoyeon checked the time.
‘It’s already 4:30 PM.’
Usually, gatherings that ended around 3 PM were unexpectedly prolonged today. Judging by the atmosphere, it didn’t seem like it would end soon.
‘What should I do? I said I would prepare dinner tonight.’
In the middle of it, Hwayoung suddenly received a call, and she couldn’t finish the preparations and rushed here.
If she said she would leave first, Hwayoung would undoubtedly express displeasure, but she couldn’t break the promise to her husband. With that in mind, Seoyeon stood up from her seat.
“Why are you getting up?”
Hwayoung quietly asked Seoyeon, who was rising.
“Where are you going?”
With a polite gesture of folding her hands, Seoyeon calmly responded.
“Mother, I’m sorry, but I’ll get up first today.”
At Seoyeon’s response, Hwayoung showed a slightly displeased expression.
“Why? Do you have some appointment?”
She didn’t even tell me to get up, but Seoyeon’s attitude of going first was indescribably irritating.
“Yes. I have a prior engagement today, so I think I should get up now.”
Thinking that she would cancel the statement that she would get up first after showing an irritated expression, Hwayoung thought. However, instead of canceling the statement, Seoyeon continued to insist.
“Where did you make an appointment?”
Kind and innocent, if I may say so myself, the daughter-in-law who used to follow whatever was said, regardless of what it was, began to feel not just strange but increasingly angry as she kept talking back.
Perhaps because many eyes were watching, the anger grew. The atmosphere of the gathering instantly soured with Hwayoung’s cold voice.
When the women who came as guests exchanged glances, it was the moment when both of them noticed the situation. Seoyeon, who was looking at Hwayoung with an embarrassed face, calmly revealed the name of her appointment.
“…… Mr. Seongjun.”
“……!”
As the unexpected name came out of Seoyeon’s mouth, Hwayoung’s eyes widened abruptly. With a visibly stiff expression, she cautiously asked.
“…… Really?”
“Yes. I made plans to have dinner with Mr. Seongjun today.”
Seoyeon answered calmly.
“… Is that so? Then you should go quickly. It’s not right to make a busy person wait. Go on, quickly.”
“I’m sorry, Mother.”
Hwayoung extended her hand.
“No need to apologize. You have a prior engagement… I’m more sorry for holding a busy person without realizing it. Go on. Thank you for today.”
Seoyeon, who had expected to hear quite unpleasant words from Hwayoung for at least a few minutes, looked at her unexpectedly and, as if to express her surprise, left after bowing to the members of the gathering and Hwayoung.

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
[Although it’s inappropriate, I also want a young and handsome boyfriend to have my child.]
