Weekly Chapter 1/2

The situation quickly turned into a war. Many people screamed. Jumi, who crawled to Kim Junghyun, hugged him.

—I called 119, so be patient.

It seemed that she had the power to cast a spell on men with her sensuality because she had caused a commotion in the whole school. Even if that were not true, people had come to that conclusion.

Those memories flashed through her mind like the scenery outside the car window.

Jumi shook her head.

“I’ll wait for you, sister-in-law.”

She wanted to tell him not to call her sister-in-law, but she couldn’t because her subordinates were looking around like robots. Anyway, Yoongyo was behind this.

She entered the exhibition room. Her acquaintance with art was superficial, so she did not know about delicate brush strokes or colors. Thought about the artist of these paintings. Jo Yami approached her,

They were friends in the past.

“You are here.”

“Yes, I received an invitation.”

Yami smiled. Now that she remembered the days when she hated her because she spread the rumor, she felt it was meaningless. Even though Jo Yami had stabbed her in the back, she couldn’t do anything about it.

“I’m surprised you came.”

“There was no reason for me not to attend. That happened a long time ago.”

She was serious, but Jo Yami laughed because she believed that Junghyun was still in Jumi’s heart. It was reasonable for her to think so. Jo Yami knew that Jumi had been in love with Junghyun for quite some time.

“You’re proud like the Jumi I know.”

“Ah, Jumi.”

Junghyun approached her.

Even when they exchanged glances, she didn’t feel embarrassed.

“How about we enjoy some coffee?”

“Alright.”

Jo Yami, who agreed, crossed her arm with Junghyun. She wanted to check that Jumi really did not feel affection toward Junghyun.

They entered a coffee shop near the exhibition. Jumi sat down across from the two people who had sat next to each other.

“I can’t drink coffee, so juice. What do you want to drink?”

Jo Yami caressed her belly. Yami liked luxurious things, so the engagement ring on her finger was big. But Jumi didn’t plan to lose either.

“I’ll drink juice too. I also have trouble with coffee.”

Jo Yami, the daughter of a small company president, had an inferiority complex toward Jumi. She should have been suspicious in the past, but now she doesn’t want to think about it. It wouldn’t be good for the baby in her womb either.

“Are you still mad at me? I can clear up the misunderstanding.”

“Yami. There’s nothing to clear up. It’s been so long that there’s no point in you explaining it now. I also have someone I love, so I don’t want to continue to be involved in these rumors.”

Jo Yami adjusted her stance with pride.

“I’m glad you have a relationship. I was worried that you wouldn’t be able to meet a good man because of the consequences that caused misunderstanding.”
