#74. Amazing Accident

The smile on Nari’s face next to him never left her face.
“I was curious about the two of you dating. Today, my curiosity has finally been resolved. Congratulations.”
Nari’s acting, pretending not to know even though she knew everything, was truly superb.
“Thank you, CEO Kim Nari.”
Hyun-joon finally came to his senses.
“Since when did you two start dating? Oh, so that’s why you were hugging each other like that when you were volunteering at the daycare center?”
Hyun-joon was desperate for an answer.
Instead of answering that question, Lee Hyun smiled and said something else.
“Secretary Choi pretends to be very perceptive, but if you look closely, she’s the most clueless.”
“Wow, it really hurts to hear that from the director.”
“Anyway, I don’t think I’ll have to ask Secretary Choi for relationship advice anymore.”
“Huh?”
“Secretary Choi is taking a break from dating, and I’m currently dating.”
Hyun-joon let out a gasp as if he was dumbfounded.
“Secretary Choi, if you have any concerns, you can ask me now.”
Lee Hyun straightened his shoulders as if he were a winner.
At that moment, an employee announced that there would be fireworks outside.
“Would you like to go see the fireworks, Ms. Han Ye-rin?”
“Yes, I’d like to.”
Hyun Jun also asked Na-ri, not wanting to be outdone.
“Ms. Na-ri, should we go out too?”
“Okay.”
When they came outside, there was a pool on one side of the wide garden.
The pretty light bulbs hanging above it gave it a very charming atmosphere.
“Isn’t this a really nice space?”
There was no immediate answer to Ye-rin’s question. It
was a little different from Lee Hyun’s usual laid-back attitude.
“Ms. Lee Hyun?”
When Ye-rin carefully called him, Lee Hyun finally came to his senses and stared at her.
“I’m sorry. I was thinking about something else.”
“Oh, I see.”
“What did you say?”
“The swimming pool over there.”
Ye-rin pointed to the pool with her finger. Lee Hyun’s gaze naturally shifted as well.
At that moment, Lee Hyun’s body felt stiffer than before.
‘Huh? Was the chief afraid of water?’
He hadn’t heard anything about that when he received the handover from Hyun Joon.
“It seems like the atmosphere is good.”
“That’s right.”
Lee Hyun, who would normally have talked a little longer, had become a little shorter the moment he came out.
‘If that’s the case, I think we should sit farther away from the pool.’
However, completely contrary to Yerin’s intention, more and more people came out of the venue, and somehow the two ended up sitting right next to the pool.
Just when she was thinking about moving somewhere else,
fireworks went off without warning .
Yerin didn’t know what to do because she missed the right timing to move, but fortunately, Lee Hyun didn’t seem to care much and was just staring at the fireworks that were decorating the night sky beautifully.
“I think it was a good idea to come here today.”
“Really?”
Lee Hyun had already become affectionate again as usual.
“Han Yerin was the one who asked me to date her.”
Lee Hyun slowly stroked Yerin’s hand, which was linked with his own.
“Let’s watch fireworks together in a place with such a nice atmosphere.”
“That’s right. I think it’ll be a good memory.”
Lee Hyun laughed along when Yerin liked it.
“Did I overreact for no reason?”
When he thought that Lee Hyun might have been thinking about something else and not saying anything for a moment, his heart felt lighter than before.

Seo Yoon, who had been glaring at Yerin, also came out with Hee Jun.
“Seo Yoon, give up on Chief Chae Hyun.”
Hee Jun looked at Seo Yoon, who was still obsessed with him, as if he felt sorry for her.
“Give up? How can you give up without even getting started?”
Seo Yoon made a venomous expression as if she couldn’t do that.
Seo Yoon glanced in Yerin’s direction and walked briskly.
The fireworks were already going off, but he didn’t care about that.
He just wanted to hurt the annoying Yerin one more time.
However, since Lee Hyun would not give up his side, even that was not easy.
Before he knew it, the fireworks were over and Lee Hyun was once again surrounded by people who had come to say hello.
Perhaps to make the conversation more comfortable, Yerin left his side and was talking to someone else near the pool.
“Who are you? Oh, really, Kim Na-ri?”
The three of them used to hang out together in high school, but after stealing Yerin’s man, she also grew distant from Na-ri.
In fact, Seo-yoon was the first to become close with Na-ri.
Later, Yerin joined in, and the three of them would often eat snacks after school.
“You didn’t even answer my calls.”
Although she knew that Na-ri and Yerin had been friends, seeing it with her own eyes made her feel even dirtier.
“Oh, Na-ri. That’s not true, I told you.”
Seo-yoon’s vision filled with Yerin’s face, giggling as she talked about something.
“I feel like shit right now.” She
was already feeling depressed because Lee Hyun had given her a cold stare and ignored her earlier, but Yerin had a face that seemed to have everything in the world.
“Anyway, it’s the X that I really don’t like.”
If you think about it, everything went wrong after Yerin showed up.
Her best friend, Na-ri, also started hanging out with Yerin more, and it was Yerin who took Seo-yoon’s place as the top student in the entire school.
Because of that, she had to endure constant discrimination from her father, Assemblyman Kwak.
Seo-yoon approached Na-ri and Ye-rin without hesitation.
The two people who were laughing and talking hard immediately hardened their expressions when they saw Seo-yoon approaching.
Na-ri spoke to Seo-yoon first.
“What are you doing here?”
“I was invited too.”
Although she had received an invitation to the KK Foods founding ceremony with great difficulty through Director Park, she was still invited since she was here.
“Okay, have a good time.”
Na-ri gave Ye-rin a look telling her to leave, as if she didn’t want to talk to Seo-yoon any more.
“Han Ye-rin, I don’t know how long you can be so arrogant. Enjoy yourself now.”
As Ye-rin was about to walk away,
Seo-yoon blocked her path.
“You’ll never marry Chief Cha Hyun anyway. I’ll make it happen.”
Yerin let out a short sigh after staring at Seo Yoon, who was giving her a fierce gaze.
“Okay, try hard.”
There was no reason to talk anymore, so she was about to turn around.
Seo Yoon must have felt bad that Yerin was ignoring her, so she grabbed her arm and pulled hard.
Yerin stumbled because she was wearing higher heels than usual.
Then, unluckily, she leaned toward the pool, and soon a splash was heard.
“Huh, huh?”
“Yerin!”
Na Ri, who was watching from the side, shouted loudly, and because of that, the people who were talking around her started to pay attention one by one.
“Someone here, help me!”
Lee Hyun and Hyun Joon arrived at the same time at Na Ri’s call.
And they found Yerin in the pool at the same time.
Lee Hyun jumped into the water without hesitation.
Instead, Hyun Joon, who was taking off his suit to go into the water, belatedly discovered it and shouted loudly.
“Chief!!!”
And Hyun-joon urgently called the staff around him.
“If you have a tube or something, please hurry.”
He thought that he couldn’t send Lee Hyun alone, so he was about to go into the water.
Lee Hyun appeared out of the water and slowly moved with Ye-rin, who was struggling.
“Haa. Chief!”
Hyun-joon helped Ye-rin and Lee Hyun get out of the pool.
Then he asked Lee Hyun, who was leisurely walking out
, loudly. “How did someone who is afraid of water get in there?”
“Secretary Choi, call Dr. Kim right away.”
“Yes? Yes, I understand.”
While watching Lee Hyun check Ye-rin’s condition, Hyun-joon quickly called Dr. Kim.
Ye-rin was shocked, but she was not hurt because Lee Hyun quickly pulled her out of the water.
“Secretary Han, are you okay?”
“Yes, I’m okay.”
“Chief, I can go in, but where is that? Sigh.”
Hyun-joon was just nagging at Lee Hyun as if he was worried about her.
“I called you to Dr. Kim’s house, so you should also get treatment.”
“I’m fine, so stop nagging me. My ears are hurting so much because of Secretary Choi.”
“Am I really serious right now? You hate water so much… .”
“Secretary Choi?”
“Yes?”
“Can I ask you to drive?”
“Yes, of course. I’ll bring the car right away.”
Seeing Hyun-joon disappear, Na-ri shouted at Seo-yoon.
“Kwak Seo-yoon, are you crazy? Why did you push that person?”
Seo-yoon protested as if she was really dumbfounded.
“I pushed you? She was the one who stumbled and fell.”
“If you hadn’t let go of Ye-rin’s hand, she wouldn’t have fallen.”
Seo-yoon clearly saw Ye-rin stumble and let go of her hand at a clever timing.
No one else could have seen it, but Na-ri clearly saw it.
He may not have intentionally pulled Ye-rin at first, but he clearly had intention when he let go of her hand after seeing Ye-rin’s body stumble toward the pool.
“You’ll talk to me later.”
Now was not the time to argue about that, but the moment to check if Ye-rin was okay.
“Ye-rin, you were really surprised.”
Seo-yoon glared at Ye-rin, who was receiving all of Lee Hyun and Na-ri’s attention, and tried to leave.
At that moment,
Lee Hyun, who had gotten up, called Seo-yoon in a cold voice.
“It seems my warning earlier wasn’t enough.”
“What are you talking about?”
“I said that if you touch even one hair on my woman’s head, I won’t let you off easy.”
Seo-yoon shouted as if she was really wronged.
“Do you have any proof that I pushed you?”
“Proof.”
Lee Hyun approached step by step, dripping water.
“Even if there isn’t, I have to make it so that there is evidence.”
“T-what do you mean?”
