“Lee Hyun-ah, what did you just say?”

“If the only way to inherit the Ji Seok Group is to marry that strange woman.”

Lee Hyun’s face showed no regret.

“I don’t need the Ji Seok Group.”

“What?”

Chairman Cha made a face that showed that he couldn’t believe what Lee Hyun said.

Soo-hyun also seemed quite shocked by Lee Hyun’s words.

“Anyway, Chairman Cha has two choices, right?”

Lee Hyun slowly turned his head and stared at Soo-hyun.

“Since you have good management skills, I think you’ll be able to take good care of the Ji Seok Group.”

“Lee Hyun-ah!”

Chairman Cha grabbed the back of his neck with one hand, quite shocked by the situation that wasn’t going as he had expected.

“Then I’ll have to go and handle this ridiculous situation.”

Lee Hyun got up from his seat and left the dining room without hesitation.

It was time to protect his woman, who was more shocked and surprised than anyone else.

***

Ye-rin checked the clock on the wall every minute.

Soon, Lee Hyun would return from Jinheonjae, and she became even more anxious.

‘The chief must be very upset because of that article today…’

However, she could no longer delay it.

That article today was definitely Seo Yoon’s doing.

Doing so meant that she had a corner of her that she trusted, and at the same time, it was no different from sending a warning to Yerin.

If she didn’t break up with Lee Hyun, Seo Yoon would go to Mrs. Yoon or Lee Hyun with the photo she had and make up a story that didn’t exist. She

didn’t want to let it be like that.

She wanted to break up while only good memories of each other remained.

Even if Seo Yoon hadn’t threatened her with that photo, she couldn’t stay by Lee Hyun’s side.

The story that Chairman Cha had told her when he called her couldn’t leave her mind.

“Secretary Han, Lee Hyun won’t be the first to say let’s break up.”

“That’s why I want Secretary Han to leave Lee Hyun first.” “I

don’t think she’ll give you wings, but I don’t think she’ll break your wings so you can’t fly.”

　
If she really cared about Lee Hyun, she knew all too well that she had to let him go now.

As Chairman Cha said, love was a fleeting emotion, and in the end, what would remain was how much help Lee Hyun would receive to run the Ji Seok Group in the future.

She knew that she had to meet a woman with a greater family behind her, not her own, so she couldn’t ignore him any longer

. Yerin had to close her eyes tightly and try to calm her confused mind .

‘I didn’t mean to lie to the chief that the woman he met at the Cheto party was me.’

No, it would be more accurate to say that she didn’t know that she would become this deeply involved with Lee Hyun.

As Yerin was trying to calm her complicated feelings,

the door to the secretary’s office opened and Lee Hyun appeared.

All the staff members of the secretary’s office stood up and faced Lee Hyun.

Lee Hyun’s dark eyes were fixed solely on Yerin.

“There was a ridiculous article published a little while ago.”

She knew how many calls and inquiries the staff members of the secretary’s office had received while she was away, so she needed to explain.

But right now, Hyun wanted to comfort Yerin’s troubled heart more than anything else.

“This is clearly a false report. Please respond accordingly from now on and have the PR team write a press release stating that it is groundless.”

Hyejin asked in surprise at those words.

“It is groundless? Chief, weren’t you dating Kwak Seo-yoon?”

Hyun narrowed his eyes at the absurdity.

“No.”

“Then is that photo of you kissing in the park also a fabrication?”

“No, I am the man in that photo.”

All the staff in the secretary’s office looked confused.

Excluding Yerin and Secretary Choi, only two people.

“I can’t reveal more details because it would cause additional damage. For now, let’s focus on correcting the false report.”

“Understood, Chief.”

“And Secretary Han, please come to my room for a moment.”

***

Yerin took a deep breath and knocked on Hyun’s office door.

As soon as he entered, he came straight towards Yerin and spat out,

“I’m sorry for making you worry, Han Yerin, because of that ridiculous article. I should have been more careful at the park that day.”

Yerin listened to Lee Hyun’s words silently, then took out the white envelope she had put in her diary and handed it to him.

Lee Hyun opened his eyes slightly when he was confronted with something unexpected.

“What is this?”

“Director, I have two things I want to tell you.”

Lee Hyun noticed the identity of the envelope Yerin was handing him and withdrew his hand instead of accepting it.

“I would like to resign.”

Lee Hyun’s dark eyes trembled without mercy.

“Ms. Han Yerin, if you are doing this because of the article I read this morning… …”

“No, Director. It’s not because of that.”

It was very difficult to speak.

Even talking about resigning.

However, once he opened his mouth, he didn’t tremble as much as he had thought.

Maybe it was because he had already spilled the water.

“Then why are you suddenly announcing your intention to resign?”

Yerin took a deep breath and opened her lips.

“Director, I would like for us to stop dating.”

When those words finally came out of Yerin’s mouth, Lee Hyun let out a small gasp.

“What is the reason?”

“Actually, at the KK Foods founding ceremony, I said that I wanted to have a real relationship in a fit of anger.”

Lee Hyun listened to Yerin’s story silently.

“At that time, I said it impulsively because Kwak Seo-yoon was watching. While I was in a real relationship, I never felt sincere to the director.”

Yerin’s heart ached for some reason as she lied.

Yerin’s worries about getting hurt seemed meaningless because Lee Hyun’s expression was so expressionless.

It was the first time she had seen Lee Hyun’s cold expression as he looked at Yerin.

“Is that so?”

“Yes… …”

Lee Hyun slowly nodded his head once after hearing the small, crawling answer.

“Yes. Since Han Yerin wants to stop, let’s do that.”

Fortunately, Lee Hyun didn’t hold her back or press her to tell her that she was lying.

He simply accepted her words as if he had known that Yerin would come out like this.

‘It’s really over now.’

It seemed like it took a long time for her to open her heart and give it to him.

The end was so quick.

When Yerin was about to say that she would leave because she thought she would regret staying here any longer,

Lee Hyun added one more thing.

“Even if our relationship ends here, I think Secretary Han will finish the work she was assigned.”

“Yes, of course.”

Until a successor was found, Yerin planned to do her best to handle

the handover. Of course, it would be difficult to see Lee Hyun during that time, but it was the least she could do.

“Finding that woman.”

“Ah… ….”

Yerin hesitated for a moment and then opened her mouth. She

had thought a lot about whether or not to reveal that the woman who disappeared when she entered Lee Hyun’s office today was her.

And the decision she made was not to tell anyone.

Anyway, Seo Yoon said that she would not tell anyone that she attended the Cheto party once she left Lee Hyun’s side.

Yerin wanted Lee Hyun to never know that that woman was her.

The moment he found out that woman was her, she would get entangled with him again.

“Secretary Han, there’s something I’ve been wondering about.”

Lee Hyun slowly approached Yerin.

Then, Lee Hyun put one hand on her waist to prevent her from running away and pulled her tightly into his arms.

“Director?”

Yerin’s lips slightly parted at the fragrant body scent that suddenly hit her nose.

“Secretary Han. Would you like to take off that earring for a moment?”

“Yes?”

Lee Hyun pointed precisely at Yerin’s right ear.

A large pearl earring dangled from it.

Yerin had intentionally worn flashy, large earrings

to cover up the mole on her right earlobe.

“Why are my earrings…?”

“Excuse me.”

Lee Hyun bent down and took off the earring that was hanging from Yerin’s ear.

As the heavy weight on her right ear disappeared, Yerin tightly shut her eyes.

The moment Lee Hyun pointed to her right ear, she was so surprised that her whole body’s senses trembled.

Soon after, Lee Hyun’s low, low voice was heard in her ear.

“I remember it clearly.”

“What… …?”

Lee Hyun touched Yerin’s earlobe and gave her a dizzying look.

The faint smile was truly deadly.

“I think I found it.”

“… … .”

“The woman who tormented me every night.”

Yerin’s eyes widened significantly.

Lee Hyun bent down while taking in the bewildered Yerin in his dark eyes.

The sight of her chin moving up and down as if in slow motion caught Yerin’s eyes.

Soon, Lee Hyun’s lips opened dizzily.

“Han Yerin. It’s you.”

Lee Hyun’s expression was much more relaxed than before.

“Did you know?”

Yes, seeing her smiling like that made him certain. Lee Hyun already knew

that she was the woman who disappeared at the Cheto party. Yerin’s legs were frozen as if they were glued to the floor, unable to move. “Why… … No, since when… … .” She was so surprised that she had difficulty uttering a single word. Lee Hyun gently grabbed Yerin’s trembling hand and spat out the words. “I also wanted to ask you something.” “… … .” “Secretary Han, why did you try so desperately to hide the fact that you were that woman?” At the soft bass sound, Yerin’s heart fell to the floor with a thump.
