Weekly Chapter 1/3

Yoongyo had been on a business trip to Japan and was supposed to return two days ago. When she expected him that day, she got a call saying he wasn’t coming yet.

Since it was just a business trip, there shouldn’t have been any major issues. However, Jumi couldn’t sleep even after hearing he had arrived in Seoul.

It brought her great joy to see her second son, Jooho, starting to babble, yet her heart felt empty.

She only had to say one word to get their employees to prepare the food. She realized her heart felt empty because Yoongyo wasn’t there.

His trip had dragged on for 4 days, but she felt like she hadn’t seen him for 15 days.

She heard a shout from the front door and let go of Ji-ho’s clothes.

When she reached the front door, she met Yoongyo, who took off his tie.

“Why aren’t you asleep?”

“I couldn’t sleep, so I waited up for you.”

Jumi took the tie he had removed. He turned around before stepping into the drawing room.

“How long did you wait?”

“Huh?”

“How long did you wait?”

“Two hours…”

“Why do you lie?”

Jumi blinked because she didn’t understand his accusation.

“Ever since my business trip started, you haven’t put down your mobile.”

“You were the one who asked me to have ph0ne s#x.”

She couldn’t forget the day she had to aim the c@mera at h3r h#le during a video call. She m#sturb@ted with her l3gs spre#d w!de while Yoongyo just watched lying on the hotel bed.

—Spr#ad her l3gs wider.

—Yes! Ah!

Her m#ans woke Jiho up. Startled, she quickly covered herself.

Jumi looked at him angrily.

“If you want to hit me as usual.”

Yoongyo puffed out his chest. She hit his chest with all her might, then shook her hand because it hurt. He remained immobile with a smile.

But she was also relieved that she hadn’t hurt him. She knew his heart was unbreakable, even under a hammer, yet she couldn’t help but worry.

“Did you handle it?”

“Mostly.”

Yoongyo hugged Jumi. She didn’t mind his hand inside his pajamas anymore.

Jumi wrapped her arms around his waist. She felt lucky that he was alive.

Having two children filled her with excitement.

Was it because her first child was born before she had adjusted to her married life? A feeling called love had sprouted between them.

She got married shortly before giving birth to Jiho.

“Nothing significant happened?”

“I’ve come back from the brink of death.”
