Once again, she realized how much he had tried for the sake of their child.
While pretending not to remember him and pushing him away, how much he had poured his heart into it.
“…….”
With moonlight casting shadows, Seolwon’s feet moved as if enchanted.
In a trance, Seolwon brushed aside the curtains permeated with moonlight.
Memories of the passionate kisses they shared leaning against this window on the night of their recent first date flooded back.
As the sensation of the warm and velvety lips came to mind, the corners of Seolwon’s eyes quickly became moist.
It seemed like she needed some fresh air.
When she stepped into the garden, it was quite chilly.
Hugging herself, Seolwon looked around the garden.
Just like inside the house, all the way from the front door to the path leading to the entrance, everything was brightly lit.
Perhaps it was due to her awkward concern that Chaeha might lose his way to the house in the dark, she had this embarrassing worry.
Thanks to that, even though it was a dark night, the outside was quite bright.
Since Seolwon returned to this place, the garden had gained vitality, as if it had become unrecognizable.
With a feeling of wanting to rely on that energy, Seolwon moved slowly.
With each step, memories they created together seemed to speak.
Before she knew it, a family pot with a cactus that had grown into a dignified figure caught her eye.
Due to the large king-sized pot that did not match the cute size of the cactus, there was too much space.
However, as memories of Uju’s admirable heart and the whimsical request to plant a sibling resurfaced, a smile involuntarily spread across Seolwon’s lips.
Turning her head slightly, she noticed well-selected soil in a flat area this time.
The flower bed just below the wall was none other than the place where he had planted a sunflower seedling when he proposed.
“Chaeha… Sei.”
Unable to hold back the name any longer, a corner of her heart felt bitter.
They had sworn while planting that seedling here.
To see the sprout grow and flowers bloom together every year.
The cactus in Uju’s king-sized pot not withering, the apricot tree, as tall as Uju, bearing white fruit beyond the wall, and eventually, until the day Uju could pick the apricot without using a wooden stick.
As Uju always said, let’s promise to be together until he grows as tall as King Dad.
Now that they had finally taken the first step to become a true family, it was frustrating why the trials did not seem to end.
Trial… It would have been better if it was something given by the heavens.
Although she could not move right now, lying in the yard with Chaeha, judging by the attitudes of Director Kwon Kang-ho and Director Jung, she could roughly guess the possible backers.
Baek Sara. Otherwise, who else could there be?
Hearing Huh Young-joo’s urgency in the hospital corridor, telling Kwon Kang-ho to catch the culprit immediately, it seemed that there were secret discussions going on between Baek Sara’s side and Director Jung’s side.
Upon learning that the property of Yeui Resort had passed into Myeonghan’s hands, Seolwon naturally also heard about Myeonghan’s eldest son.
In the eyes of Baek Sara, who had carried Chaeha in her heart all her life, he was a person without any fault.
Cornered and driven by evil, she undoubtedly had the strongest backing.
After the truck incident, Chaeha assigned a bodyguard to Uju, but she skillfully evaded it.
Seolwon shook her head.
She didn’t want to think about that woman right now.
She only wanted to think about Chaeha waking up, about him getting better.
She hoped he would look at her again with those deep eyes that always made her heart flutter.
“……. ”
Suddenly, a gaze fell on the detached house at the edge of her vision.
Since it was in a corner of the garden, it was quite dark on nights like this without lights.
However, for a moment, Seolwon realized that the place she wanted to be the most right now was inside there.
After deciding to leave but learning about Chaeha’s true feelings with Secretary Jung’s help, the lock on the annex had been left open.
She hadn’t even opened her mother’s will inside it.
Once again, Seolwon was amazed at how boundless the things they had to do together with Chaeha were.
Although they had spent eight years as a married couple, even if the time apart had been long, time was never abundant.
Rather, it was always insufficient and lacking.
“…… Chaeha.”
Inside the annex, as she sat down on the sofa overlooking the outside through the window, an overwhelming sadness rushed in.
The emotions that Chaeha had felt countless times over the past five years in here.
It felt as if those emotions were seeping into her body as if they were her own.
Deep regret. The emotions floating in the air like dust were nothing but regret.
Why, even after confirming, no, after being sure of his feelings, did she avoid them?
If she had expressed even half as much affection as Chaeha did.
She should have honestly conveyed her surging love without being shy.
The love for him didn’t need to be saved or hidden.
And Chaeha willingly did that for her.
“…Do you think you would have felt like this when I disappeared?”
Looking at the stems of silver raindrops that were still difficult to distinguish inside the dome, Seolwon murmured.
“I thought you were the only one hurting me… But now, I realize that I hurt you too much.”
Eventually, the tears she had endured began to flow down her cheeks.
As if he were right in front of her now, Seolwon desperately let out her tears.
“I’m sorry. I’m sorry… Chaeha. Please open your eyes… Please.” Beyond the small window of the detached house, the moonlight gently embraced the tear-stained Seolwon.
Male lead is reincarnated to save his wife
I’ve also read this one twice already. The female lead is kinda soft and gets embarrassed easily—not really my type, but the plot is definitely worth reading. Hurry up and read it, y’all!
Intro
When Shen Yuan encountered Su Jin again in his previous life, she had already become the Prime Minister of the current dynasty. As for him, the former top young master of the capital, he had long since fallen into the abyss, becoming a singer on a pleasure boat.
After a song ended, he was redeemed and sent to the Su Residence.
Su Jin respected and cherished him, gave him a roof over his head, and bestowed him with warmth. Shen Yuan fell deeper and deeper, but before he could express his feelings, Su Jin passed away.
Shen Yuan died to follow her in death, but instead, he returned to when he was fifteen years old.
At that time, he was not yet engaged, and Su Jin was just a poor scholar.
Shen Yuan gritted his teeth, casting aside all his pride, and thought of ways to coax and entice her every day.
The colder and more indifferent Su Jin was towards him, the more proactive Shen Yuan became.
He was not afraid of being mocked by the world, only wanting to marry his Wife-master early, to hold her hand and never let go for a lifetime.
