Chapter 129 - Did my ladies miss me? (2/2)

”He texted me using your phone. He called me to his room. He's the one who did this and I am the reason why he's at the hospital. He will not wake up.” She has done the same thing to the time-crystal plant. That old thing didn't leave. She has no doubt that Jae Kyung wouldn't live either. She doesn't know how to save him either. ”How about you become honest with me? You are not meeting my gaze.”

He covers his face and lets out an exasperated sigh. ”Jae Kyung did something to my drinks. I don't know why Yeon Seo came to that room. I thought that she was you.”

She leans against the wall. She's not angry or hurt. She did feel torrents of emotions last night. After seeing Young Hwa, she's calmer. That's why she knows that it's not working out. She's been forcing herself to love him for the sake of Little Hae, thinking that love would happen eventually. She did rely on him. She also likes him.

”Kyuri, don't cancel the wedding.” He walks to her side. ”It was Jae Kyung's plotting. He used Yeon Seo against me. Please believe me. I would never cheat on you.”

”I believe you. Still, I don't want to go ahead with the wedding.” She pulls away from him. ”Young Hwa, I am not canceling it because what happened between you and Yeon Seo.”

Jae Kyung must have done something. She understands that much.

”Why?” He stares at her with his creased forehead.

”When I found out, I was relieved.” She looks into his eyes. ”As your wife, I should not be relieved that you slept with someone else. However, I am. I don't feel jealous. I was unhappy last night, but it was not the pain that a woman suffers when she finds out that her husband was with someone else. I tried, but I am incapable of...”

”Loving me.” He finishes her words. He has been afraid of telling her. She didn't feel anything about it. She's right. She shouldn't be calm after hearing about what happened. She should be angry or beating him up.

”Then, do you love Kang Si An?”

”I don't,” She replies with an unwavering voice. There's not a moment of hesitation. Whatever it is between her and Kang Si An, it is only a lingering attachment. That's it.

”Then, I still have a chance.” He is not giving up. He won't let one night to ruin everything he has with Kyuri. ”Let's cancel the wedding. Come to my house with Little Hae. We have been caring about the formalities too much. You and I are already married. Maybe you cannot feel like a wife because you and I haven't been living like one.”

”Young Hwa.” Kyuri frowns at him. ”I don't think that we would work out.”

”We didn't try enough.” He holds her hands. ”I apologize for what happened last night. I will never do it with a sane mind. The woman I want to be with is you. A second chance for us... Kyuri. We will live together without anyone's interference. Then, it will become clear whether we can work out or not.”
