For some reason, Director Kim, who was not the principal but the manager, approached her.
“Hello, madam.”
“Ah, Director Kim.”
“You mentioned you’d like to see the principal, may I ask the reason, if it’s not too impertinent?”
When the manager asked, Ji Hwa Ja realized that it was not the principal but her who had come, and grumbled with a displeased face.
“I don’t have anything to say to the manager. I want to talk directly to the principal.”
In response to the tone that seemed to belittle the manager, Director Kim hid a smile and calmly responded.
“I’m sorry, but without knowing the reason, I can’t arrange a meeting with the principal for you.”
Director Kim spoke courteously yet firmly.
“If there’s something you need help with, please let me know.”
For some reason, he didn’t want a guest like this to meet the principal.
“Even though I am acquainted with the principal, is this how it is?”
“All firstgeneration members have indeed met the principal.”
During the early opening phase, for the first generation, regardless of the membership level of all those who joined Songhwa Palace, the principal personally visited them at a pavilion called Yeonrijeong in front of the pond, conveyed congratulations and served tea.
Facing members who were boastful about having met the principal, Director Kim was unyieldingly stern.
“Ah, it’s really difficult.”
Despite grumbling, Ji Hwa Ja had no choice but to get up and leave her seat.
Although it was a place that provided the best service and was extremely polite, Songhwa Palace was too noble to fuss over a single troublesome member.
In the inner yard enclosed by the fence, the clear laughter of a child could be heard lively.
“This way! This way!”
Do Hyun’s energetic voice came over the fence. The voice of a young man followed.
“Wow, our Do Hyun is doing great!”
“Catch!”
Hyun Seo was so in love with the child’s clear voice that he didn’t know what to do.
As he opened the gate and entered, a warmer smile spread across his face at the sight of the two people revealed.
“Our darling! Mommy brought ice cream.”
Hyun Seo called his son, who was playing ball in the yard. Do Hyun, about to throw the ball to Lucas, flung it aside and ran to his mother.
“Mom!”
Watching his son run with his arms wide open, Hyun Seo put down the bag of ice cream and bent over.
He scooped up Do Hyun, who came rushing in and snuggled up, and swung him around like a spinning swing.
Do Hyun’s laughter penetrated Hyun Seo’s heart.
“Mom! Again! Again!”
The child pleaded with a joyous expression and his arms spread for more.
He picked up his son again and spun around for a while. Hyun Seo felt dizzy, but the child laughed with joy.
After spinning one more time, she stopped and squeezed the child in her arms once gently.
“Do Hyun, were you listening well to Uncle Lucas?”
“Yes, yes.”
Lucas, who had been playing physically with the child despite being dressed in a suit, came to the child, straightening his clothes.
“Luna. Oh, I mean, we agreed to call you Hyun Seo in Korea now.”
“I like the name Luna too.”
“But everyone here calls Luna as Hyun Seo.”
“Call me whatever is convenient.”
The truth was, Hyun Seo had a fondness for the name Luna, which had given her a new life.
Lucas Yu, who was living without any formality, had actually been her boss and colleague for the past few years. His mother, Grace Park, had a relationship with Hyun Seo like a benefactor who helped each other out.
That’s why Luna was the name given by Grace, who cherished her as a daughter.
Just like the names of their family who conducted business with people from various countries, they had given Hyun Seo an English name that was easy for any foreigner to pronounce.
It was also a testament to Grace’s determination to share so many experiences with Hyun Seo.
“Hyun Seo. I’m thinking about getting a house nearby.”
“Why?”
When the puzzled Hyun Seo asked, the towering man in front of her showed his white teeth and laughed brightly.
“I just want to see Do Hyun more often……”
He trailed off and laughed awkwardly.
“You can see Do Hyun even if you stay at the hotel. What’s the excuse? You spend a lot of time in New York.”
“I’m tired of living in the hotel, and since I come to Korea frequently, I thought it might be good to have a house. ”
“Then get one near the company, CEO Yu. Why specifically in this neighborhood?”
Lucas wanted to find a place nearby using Do Hyun as an excuse, but Hyun Seo was uncooperative.
“Or, you could use a room in your house, Hyun Seo.”
“Wake up. I don’t want any misunderstandings.”
As Hyun Seo defended herself, Lucas chuckled and held Do Hyun in one arm.
“I’d like that kind of misunderstanding.”
He stirred the pot more and turned his face towards Do Hyun, whom he was holding in his arm.
“Do Hyun, would you like it if Daddy were here?”
“I like Daddy. I like him.”
“Do Hyun! He’s not your father!”
Hyun Seo was startled by the word “father” and interrupted.
“Lucas! Didn’t I tell you not to do that? Do Hyun can get confused because he’s young!”
Ex-husband Wants Reconciliation
One-line summary: Chasing the wife to the crematorium (making an effort to attract someone who has become indifferent), the female lead doesn’t look back, the second male lead takes the position.
Intro:
To repay the kindness of the older generation, Su Mu crossed into a female-dominated world and became a live-in daughter-in-law of the Yan family, single-handedly saving the Yan family from fire and water.
But her husband, Yan Jiyue, the eldest son of the Yan family, treated her with sarcasm and never showed her a good face.
It wasn’t until after Su Mu’s death that this pampered and arrogant young master shed a few fake tears and pretended to want to die for love.
This life’s kindness was enough. If there was a next life, she would definitely kick Yan Jiyue away.
Who knew that the heavens would be so kind as to allow her to be reborn, returning to the time when she had just married into the Yan family.
Su Mu glanced at the Yan eldest son, who still spoke coldly to her, and threw a divorce letter in front of him.
“Let’s divorce!”
***
Yan Jiyue never imagined that he would be reborn. He happily went to find Su Mu, wanting to make up for the mistakes he had made in his ignorant youth.
Wasn’t the reason the heavens allowed him to be reborn to let him reconcile with Su Mu?
But when he pushed open the door to Su Mu’s room, the person lying on the bed was another man.
Su Mu’s personal attendant, Xie Yi.
Yan Jiyue hated him so much that his teeth itched. In front of Su Mu, Xie Yi was a gentle and considerate whisperer of sweet nothings, but in reality, he was vicious-hearted and deliberately sabotaged their husband and wife relationship.
In the previous life, it was he who secretly hid in Su Mu’s coffin and committed suicide, stealing a step ahead of him to be buried with Su Mu.
Yan Jiyue’s eyes were filled with hatred as he cursed, “What kind of thing are you? Your background is lowly, what right do you have to occupy Su Mu?”
Xie Yi looked at the sleeping Su Mu and no longer pretended to be a whisperer of sweet nothings.
He proudly stuck out his belly, “I have the right because my belly is capable of giving the Wife-master a daughter.”
***
Yan Jiyue was consumed with jealousy. He spread rumors that Xie Yi had once been branded with the mark of a “harlot” on his chest.
But on the night Xie Yi cut off the flesh bearing that mark, Su Mu suddenly realized something was amiss.
“How did you know the exact moment I was poisoned? And why did you show up a month early?”
Xie Yi remained silent, blood from his wound soaking through his robes. His sapphire eyes brimmed with anguish – or was it just a flawless act?
Between a once-arrogant husband now seeking redemption, and a gentle soul willing to die for her – who truly held the darkest secrets? And could it be that Su Mu and Yan Jiyue weren’t the only ones given a second chance at life…?
