A week after the upheaval with Eun Ji Yeon, Se Ah moved from her studio apartment to Min Woo’s house.
Min Woo had suggested that she move into his house a little later, but Se Ah didn’t want to delay any longer.
‘Why should I? I’m the mistress of this house now, why should I abandon my home and live outside?’
She had replaced most of the wallpaper and furniture that had been there before, and she had even bought a large kingsized bed.
She had also filled the dressing room with new clothes and a lot of expensive jewelry.
It was a satisfying sight to behold, and she couldn’t wait to show off to her friends.
“Wow, Jung Se Ah, you’ve really moved up in the world.”
“I’m so jealous, Jung Se Ah. Isn’t your husbandtobe a successful executive of a major corporation?”
“I knew Se Ah would make it like this. Was she always pretty since she was a kid?”
The mere thought was satisfying, and everything was perfect….
However, her conversation with Min Woo this morning had frustrated Se Ah.
“Se Ah, it’s time for you to start preparing too.”
As Min Woo stirred the fried rice that had been delivered in the early morning for breakfast, he spoke.
“Preparing what? What do I need to prepare?”
“Well, there are several things.”
“What kinds of things?”
“You have to formally meet my father and mother soon.”
“Really? When? How about this weekend?”
Se Ah, her face filled with excitement, sat opposite Min Woo, her eyes gleaming with anticipation.
“That’s not possible now, not in this state.”
“This… state? What do you mean?”
“You know my father is picky. My mother has already seen you, so she must be against it. You need to prepare to impress them.”
‘What does this mean? Are you saying that I’m not good enough to introduce to your family as I am now?’
“Min Woo, are you saying… that I’m greatly lacking? So lacking that you can’t introduce me? Is that what you’re saying. Right now?”
Se Ah questioned, her voice growing sharp with irritation she didn’t even realize she had.
“That’s not what I’m saying. When did I ever say that!”
“You may not have said it outright, but that’s what your words mean. Jung Se Ah, you’re lacking a lot to be introduced to our refined family, so you should prepare to make up for it. It’s too embarrassing to introduce you right now.”
Min Woo was hurt by Se Ah’s increasingly sarcastic comments, but he kept his mouth shut because what she was saying wasn’t entirely wrong.
As Se Ah said, she was indeed quite lacking to be introduced to his father, Chairman Cha Seung Jo, at that point.
Not just her, anyone trying to enter a conglomerate’s family had a lot to learn and familiarize themselves with.
Especially when considering his father and people from his paternal home, this was a must.
Just looking at his mother Joo Ran’s reaction, the family’s opposition was clear, and he was growing frustrated with Se Ah, who wasn’t preparing at all.
Moreover, Min Woo was feeling more anxious since the night Eun Ji Yeon had created chaos.
He was worried about when she would tell his father about all of this.
‘First, I have to clear up the misunderstanding with Ji Yeon, and tell them about the agreed divorce… I should be the one to break the news first….’
It was Chairman Cha who had pushed for the marriage between Min Woo and Ji Yeon, and it was Chairman Cha who had been fond of Ji Yeon since she became his daughterinlaw, which made it too difficult to tell him about the current situation.
‘Why did father force me to marry Eun Ji Yeon when I didn’t want to. And why did Eun Ji Yeon push for it, too. Ah……’
Resentment towards his father and Ji Yeon suddenly surged up.
If he had firmly rejected the marriage to Ji Yeon three years ago, what would the situation be like now?
Three years ago.
At a meeting suddenly called by his paternal home, Chairman Cha Seung Jo outright said to Min Woo.
“There’s a woman I’ve picked out to be your wife, so break up with the one you’re seeing now.”
This was not a discussion, but a command that had to be obeyed.
Moreover, it seemed like Chairman Cha Seung Jo already knew about the existence of Se Ah, whom Min Woo had never mentioned to him before.
“Father, you haven’t even met Se Ah yet. She’s a really good woman, please give us a chance.”
“There’s no need for me to meet her, why would I meet her. I’ll give you a month, sort it out.”
“Father, I can’t live without Se Ah. She’s the woman I love!”
“If you’re only thinking about this love game without thinking about the bigger picture, then I won’t worry about your future.”
The firm tone of Chairman Cha already indicated that a decision had been made.
“But do you really think that you can overtake Geun Woo or Jae Woo and rise to the top on your own?”
Chairman Cha sneered, looking at Min Woo as he continued speaking.
“In fact, this position, the girl named Eun Ji Yeon, the match I’m talking about now, is a very good one that your stepmother wants to arrange for Jae Woo.”
The name of the girl that Kim Ji Won, the wife of Chairman Cha, wanted to pair with her stepbrother wasn’t unfamiliar.
