Weekly Chapter 5/5

“Did you want to die?”

“You were really upset.”

His smile grew more intense.

“Tell me.”

“That’s a lie. That’s why I’m alive.”

“How did you know you wouldn’t die…?”

“I’ll survive even if everyone else dies.”

“Why do you believe that? Are you immortal?”

“I don’t bet without certainty.”

“How can you be so confident?”

“I’ve been stabbed several times.”

“You look proud.”

He p#lled d#wn the neckline of Jumi’s shirt. She looked surprised as always. They b#unced her br#asts tr#pped inside her br#. Yoongyo looked at them closely.

“What’s wrong?”

“Would you care to tell me why you’ve lost weight?”

He touched her waist. Her abdomen had become more pronounced.

“What are you doing?”

“Did you eat? What did Heedong buy you? I told you to feed yourself.”

“I ate. Of course.”

“But why did you lose weight?”

“That…”
Jumi was looking for an answer when there was a knock at the door.

Yoongyo told the person to enter. She curled up like a rabbit that wanted to hide. Although she hadn’t done anything, she didn’t want the person to misunderstand the situation.

“Director.”

He thought it wasn’t the first time he had seen her. She was a middle-aged woman.

“Mom?”

It was Jumi who was surprised. Although they looked similar at first glance, their personalities were opposites. Her mother valued sociability when it came to power, Choi Jumi was a lonely woman who always wanted to be alone.

She had her eyes fixed to the side, so he assumed she had come to visit her daughter. It was hard to believe that she had yelled at Jumi to erase the baby.

“I’m Jumi’s mom.”

“Then you are President Choi Wooseok’s wife.”

“That’s right.”

“Mom, what are you doing here?”

“I was worried when I heard that the baby’s father was injured.”

“That makes sense.”

“I also wanted to ask you something.”

“Please say it.”

“You will soon become a mother. Do you plan to marry him?”
