Anyone watching would think he’s a complete fool, Dojun thought, laughing at himself as he opened the door.

Drrrr- The noise came from Taeyeon’s desk.

It was the familiar sound of a mobile phone.

Ah, you wanted to sever all ties with me entirely.

The abandoned phone felt like it belonged to him, and laughter naturally bubbled up.

As Dojun approached the desk, the phone continued to vibrate.

While checking the caller displayed on the screen, Dojun’s eyes grew even colder.

[Vibration Phil, CEO.]

It must be that culprit who caused all this mess.

Dojun picked up Taeyeon’s phone and pressed the call button.

But eerie and sharp words echoed from the other end.

“Hey, you X! Even though I’m not your father! Is this how you shamelessly come out?”

“…….”

“Say something in response! Huh? Did I raise you to be so ungrateful? If you say you’ll do this and divorce again, I won’t stay quiet…”

Plop-

Perplexed by this strange conversation, Dojun laughed absurdly.

Is it because I’m too shocked that I’m hearing nonsense?

Upon hearing Dojun’s faint laughter, Vibration Phil’s CEO fell silent for a moment.

Then, as if he couldn’t believe it, he cautiously asked,

“Are you perhaps Mr. Cha?”

“Yes.”

“Oh…”

Silence again. This time, Dojun asked,

“What on earth was that just now?”

“Oh, I dialed the wrong number…”

“Mr. Vibration Phil, please don’t hang up.”

In the cold voice, Vibration Phil’s CEO was frozen, unable to end the call.

“So, Mr. Vibration Phil, I heard something quite extraordinary just now.”

“Nah, Mr. Cha. No, listen.”
“Do answer when I’m asking questions.”

-…….

Dojun exhaled a sigh. He closed his eyes tightly and perched on Taeyeon’s desk.

“Was it Vibration Phil CEO who suggested Taeyeon get a divorce?”

-No, I merely expressed my opinion based on what Taeyeon wanted.

“Your excuses need sincerity for anyone to believe them.”

What a way to handle things without even giving it a proper thought.

The low-toned voice sounded even colder through the receiver.

Without a response returning for a while, the man who usually never stopped talking when he had something to say was strangely silent today, lips sealed tight as if he were just a silent observer.

As Dojun’s patience neared its limit, Vibration Phil’s CEO finally spoke.

-Well, you see…

“Alright, never mind. Just get to the conclusion.”

-Actually…

Hearing the truth from Vibration Phil’s CEO, Dojun closed his eyes tightly.

So, that’s why he relentlessly pushed and confronted Taeyeon.

It was the moment when the last piece of the oddly mismatched puzzle fell into place.

“Then who are Taeyeon’s biological parents?”

“I genuinely don’t know. When Taeyeon was young, someone left her in front of our house, and we raised her out of pity.”

This, too, was a lie.

Listening to the trembling voice of Vibration Phil’s CEO, Dojun concluded.

“I’ll end it here.”

Dojun quickly ended the call with Vibration Phil’s CEO.

Despite having a lot to do, his mind became clearer.

At least until he discovered the envelope on the desk.

As Dojun, holding Taeyeon’s phone, was about to leave the room, his attention was drawn to a mysterious envelope.

Without seeing the contents, he could tell what it was.

Dojun raised the document envelope but quickly put it back down.

He didn’t want to confirm.

There would be no more occasions for me to stamp anything on that document.

As he lifted the document envelope, a paper attached to it fell off.

Dojun picked up the neatly written yellow note.

[Mr. Dojun, I want to settle our relationship as quickly as possible.]

The hand holding the note trembled slightly.

[Originally, this marriage had a timeframe. It was going as planned until you returned to Korea without notice, causing a disturbance.]

Reading the written text, it seemed remarkably numb.

Dojun read down to this point calmly.

[And during this time, I acted like I liked you, like I loved you.]

“Lies.”

A slight curse escaped Dojun’s mouth as he read that sentence.

That sunny smile that looked at me with affection was a lie.

The unasked question at that time, the whispered words of affection—everything was a lie.

No, the lie was this note that Dojun was holding right now.
“I want to settle the relationship with Mr. Dojun without facing him if possible. I’ll contact you through the lawyer I’ll soon hire.”

Dojun crumpled the note that unilaterally defined the end by himself.

Then, without checking the contents of the document envelope, Dojun coldly passed by Taeyeon’s room as if he hadn’t seen anything.

Ring- Dojun’s phone rang briefly once again.

“Madam has entered a guest house located in Busan. Fortunately, there are many rooms, so those who were following can stay in the same place.”

Taeyeon is still within my grasp.

However, it’s not a situation that can be satisfied with just observing.

“Jin Taeyeon, it will never go the way you want.”

The obsession that Dojun had barely suppressed raised its head above the surface.
