Oksun felt like a sinner because her actions seemed to be the reason her husband turned away from the family.
“You’ve severed the family line and yet enjoy such luxury in someone else’s house. Sister, you are indeed fortunate.”
Geumja sneered.
“What’s so impressive about continuing the family line? It’s just inheriting poverty. Are you still saying such things to your sister?”
Hosik, who had entered the yard at some point, shouted at Geumja.
“Why are you saying such things, Oppa?”
This time, Eunja raised her voice.
“Too noisy. If you’re going to make useless noise, both of you, go back home. Don’t make a fuss in the house when Mr. Cha is about to arrive.”
“Understood.”
Even after being driven away, Geumja and Eunja kept quiet, aware of Hosik’s quick temper.
“Say such things to your sister once more, and I’ll cut off all ties without hesitation. Do you understand that?”
Hosik hammered his point again.
Later, Hosik noticed the fruits that Geumja and Eunja brought. Ironically, half of them were rotten.
“Take these back and enjoy them. We’ll get fresh fruits from the department store when Mr. Cha arrives.”
“Well, these are good too.”
“So take them and eat.”
It had become a habit for Geumja and Eunja to give Oksun old clothes, expired cosmetics, or imperfect fruits, as if generously bestowing favors. Oksun, who always felt like a sinner in front of them, silently accepted, but recently, Yun openly expressed her displeasure. A few months ago, when Geumja gave cosmetics to Oksun, she received a stern remark from Yun.
“I can buy cosmetics for Grandma, so you don’t have to give her these expired knock-offs.”
Although she thought Yun took after her grandmother and mother and expected her to be gentle, Yun was not an ordinary girl from a young age.
When Yun was in elementary school, she saw Geumja giving away clothes to Oksun.
“Take this trash and let Grandma wear it. Watch. I’ll earn a lot of money later, and I’ll only buy department store clothes for our grandmother.”
Even though Yun was shedding tears as if moved by the pitiful sight of the small amount of clothes, she spoke sarcastically. When enraged Geumja threw the bag she was holding, surprised Oksun quickly embraced Yun, and her head hit the corner of the bag, causing her to bleed.
Later, when Hosik learned about the incident, he broke off contact for a while, unable to stand the outrageous temper.
At that time, it wouldn’t have been a big loss to have no contact, but now, whether he liked it or not, Hosik was no longer the same person as before.
As the son-in-law of Chairman Woo Sung Construction, with the ability to buy such a comfortable house, Cha Kang-hyun was now Hosik’s son-in-law.
“Understood.”
Geumja and Eunja lowered their tails.
At that moment, the doorbell rang.
“Oh my, it seems our Mr. Cha and Yun are here.”
Hosik’s face brightened instantly. Hurriedly, Hosik and Oksun picked up their shoes and went out to greet them.
Cheol-young, invited by Kang-hyun, was also present.
“Grandfather, grandmother, Mr. Cha has arrived.”
Kanghyun nodded in greeting.
“Come on in.”
Hosik smiled broadly, extending his arm to pat Kanghyun’s shoulder. Given Hosik’s shorter stature, Kanghyun stooped slightly for the shoulder pat.
“Hello.”
Cheolyoung also nodded in greeting.
“Our Director Gwak, come in as well.”
Oksun warmly welcomed Cheolyoung. However, Cheolyoung involuntarily twitched at Kanghyun’s laser-like gaze.
Suddenly, Cheolyoung remembered their eerie conversation not too long ago.
“You met Grandma before me?”
“Oh, yes. Last time, with the rice cooker…”
Then, she shut her mouth in the face of Kanghyun’s ominous energy.
“Why didn’t you tell me such an important story?”
Kanghyun growled.
“I didn’t know if it was that important…”
“You’re lucky. Meeting Grandma before me.”
“I’m sorry. I met Grandma before you, Representative.”
Feeling terrorized by Kanghyun’s fierce aura, Cheolyoung apologized without knowing why.
Anyway, Cheolyoung distanced himself from Oksun, looking at Kanghyun warily, fearing another spark.
“Oh my, who is this?”
Not only Geumja and Eunja, who saw Kanghyun for the first time, but also their children, couldn’t close their open mouths. Despite claiming that he couldn’t see properly due to the dazzling light, Kanghyun himself was like a radiant being.
“Nice to meet you, aunts.”
With an aura that was beyond reach, Kanghyun even managed to smile brightly. Geumja and Eunja felt somewhat uneasy without realizing it.
“Uh… well, Mr. Cha.”
“I’ll greet you first.”
Kanghyun stood side by side with Yun.
Only then did Geumja and Eunja notice Yun. While they thought she was attractive before, now she exuded an even more noble atmosphere.
“Uh… well, Yun. Are you completely recovered now? We… we couldn’t visit because you said we couldn’t have a meeting.”
For some reason, Geumja found it difficult to speak comfortably. Come to think of it, Yun was now the daughter-in-law of a wealthy family.
“Yes. I apologize for causing concern.”
Her face seemed even brighter. The Yun they saw after a long time was as vibrant as a TV actress.
“Still, it’s so fortunate that you’re safe. Thanks to Grandfather taking care of everything.”
So don’t forget about your household. Of course, including Grandmother and Grandfather.
Geumja and Eunja forced gentle smiles.
“Our Mr. Cha will be the mayor. Let’s have a meal first.”
Oksun tried to get up but sat back down due to knee pain, and Kanghyun quickly supported her.
“It’s okay.”
Even as Oksun clapped her hands, Kanghyun insisted and led her to the living room. Geumja and Eunja watched with envious eyes.
‘There’s no other match for the Grand Queen Mother.’
Kanghyun treated Oksun with infinite affection. If Oksun asked him to bring a star from the sky, he would.
“Grandmother, when your knee gets better after the surgery, shall we go on a trip to Japan? There are excellent hot springs.”
“What nonsense at your age? You two should travel a lot with Yun.”
“Are you old enough for travel? Just go with Yun to nice places.”
Geumja and Eunja were filled with jealousy as they watched Oksun and Kanghyun discussing and sharing a warm moment.
“Grandmothers, it would be great if you could come along.”
At Kanghyun’s words, the faces of Geumja and Eunja turned pale.
“Even us? It would be great to go together. It would be less boring for my sister.”
Geumja and Eunja realized the changed status of Oksun. Moreover, they understood that they needed to display kindness to Oksun to receive any crumbs from her.
“You should at least put down your chopsticks.”
Geumja signaled to her daughter-in-law.
“Right, even if there are middle-aged ladies, we should go and help.”
Eunja also gave her daughter-in-law a stern look.
‘Well, people change.’
The strong-willed Oksun, who used to be oblivious to the world, had now become the Grand Queen Mother.
Geumja and Eunja couldn’t help but fall for Kanghyun’s decisive demeanor.
“Perhaps he’s overly polite like this. When you see things like this, you can’t believe rumors. Who dares to gossip about our Mr. Cha and criticize his temperament? To such a patient person.”
Geumja raised her voice.
“Maybe he’s feeling unwell in his stomach.”
Eunja also chimed in.
“Then, our Mr. Cha, with dignity and restraint, attended the best university in our country…”
Hosik’s repertoire had begun.
Male lead first thought she played hard to get, only to realize she
really disliked him
