"Oh really? Where did she go?” Irene asked.Hara shrugged, "I don't know, maybe go to practice."Irene slowly nodded and tried to eat her breakfast. After she finished, she went upstairs to her room while waiting for Jennie."Should I call Jennie to tell her if I'm waiting for her at home?" Irene inquired, looking at her cellphone screen while lying on the bed. "Ah no. Make it a surprise for her." She then stated.Irene turned her lying position to face the side. Her gaze was drawn to a photo frame in which she and Jennie were smiling and hugging each other's shoulders.Irene began to rise from her lying position and then shifted into a sitting position, her hands moving to take the photo frame."Jennie was so adorable with her innocent smile at the time." With a smile, Irene said. But then Irene took a breath deeply, "Seeing this photo makes me miss her. I don't know since when I haven't seen the smile on Jennie's face again."Irene moved her hand to open a drawer in a small cupboard
When Noah noticed Irene was silent, he grabbed the paper from her grasp and said, "I warned you not to touch my things.""W-why are you still keeping it?" Irene, who couldn't believe it, asked quietly. She couldn't believe Noah kept the paper she gave when they were both in high school.Irene, who had long admired Noah, had deliberately practiced painting Noah's face on a piece of paper. Irene managed to paint it well even though it wasn't perfect.However, due to Noah's indifferent personality, Irene did not dare to give the paper directly. As a result, Irene placed the painting paper in Noah's locker without knowing him.When promoted to the next grade, Irene's gaze remained fixed on Noah, who stepped forward while carrying a piece of paper that he secretly placed in Noah's locker.But Irene noticed Noah and Suzy exchanging glances and smiling at each other at the time. A few days later, their school was rocked by the news that Noah and Suzy were dating.From the time Noah received
Aaron immediately embraced Irene and carried her into the car. Likewise, Leo brought his wife and led her to the car.They took separate paths. Aaron directed Irene back to her apartment while Leo and Crystal went home. Irene was delirious halfway through, still having trouble opening her eyes."Can we go to the park for a little while?" Irene inquired.Aaron, who had focused on driving, began to turn to check on Irene to see if she was delirious.Feeling that Aaron didn't answer his words, Irene's hand began to move to touch Aaron's hand, which was in gear."Aaron, let's go to the Park. I don't want Noah to see me come home drunk like this," Irene said again.Aaron turned to Irene, "You'll be home late at night if you take the time to go to the Park first.""That's okay." Irene sighed.Aaron remained silent. His car was currently driving towards a park near the restaurant they had previously visited.They both arrived about 5 minutes later. Aaron came to a halt and turned to face Ire
Aaron had a crush on Irene long before she had a crush on Noah. His feelings for Irene haven't changed up until now.Noah laughed, “What a sad love story. So you've been hiding feelings for a woman who has never loved you all this time? Wow, if only Irene knew how much you love her.""If only Irene's parents knew how much Irene was suffering from living with her husband." Aaron said, "You better go because I'll be the one to take Irene home." continued Aaron.After stepping while leading Irene, Noah grabbed Aaron's arm to stop him.“There's no need to bother. Her husband is already here, so let her go home with him."Aaron stepped back, ignoring Noah's words. But Noah stopped him once more. Noah immediately drew Irene's hand into his embrace. Aaron, not wanting to lose, took Irene back into his arms.Irene, who had been unconscious, finally opened her eyes after feeling swayed here and there as Noah and Aaron fought over her.Irene, who was half-drunk, was surprised to see Noah and Aa
Noah entered the room and noticed a bucket of roses on his desk."I'm not sure how many times she sent me roses," Noah said as he sat down in his chair, holding the flower bucket.And, for the umpteenth time, Noah threw the bucket of flowers into the trash can near his desk."Even she acts nonchalant at home, but when I get to the office, she always sends me flowers," Noah said again, looking at the bucket of flowers already in the trash.Not long after, someone entered Noah's room and opened the door. Alison walked calmly over to Noah. His brow furrowed as he looked at the trash can."You threw it away all over again?" Alison inquired as he sat in the chair in front of Noah.Noah sighed and leaned back in his chair, his gaze fixed on the ceiling. "Those flowers just litter my workplace," Noah later explained."You are truly heartless. What if Irene finds out that you always throw the flowers she gave you in the trash? Do you have the courage to hurt your wife's feelings?" enquired Al
Yeri, who had been looking downcast, began to raise her head. Irene crouched down to face Yeri and held her shoulders."What's going on? Why are you crying like this?” Irene asked again.Still sobbing, Yeri tried to wipe her tears, "People say I'm shameless for sending Manager Lee flowers."Irene sighed, "Gosh, how can they talk like that." with an irritated face, Irene was about to get up from her squatting position to scold the employees who had made Yeri cry.However, Yeri immediately pulled Irene's hand to sit back in front of her."Miss Park, I'm fine. Let them say what they want to say. After all, they were right. I shouldn't have given Manager Lee flowers."Irene was silent, looking at Yeri, who tried to stop her crying. Irene had no idea Yeri liked Aaron so much. Seeing Yeri cry like that reminded Irene of her old self, who used to cry when she discovered Noah didn't like her.Irene began gently stroking Yeri's shoulder to comfort her, "Don't pay attention to what other people
Hearing the sound of the door opening, Sharon, who had been waiting in Irene's room, turned her head and smiled at her daughter-in-law."Mom? How long have you been here?" Irene, still puzzled, asked."Hello, Irene," Sharon said. "No. I haven't been here long. Sorry if I came in when you weren't there."Irene, still holding her cup of coffee, laughed awkwardly, "A-ah, it's okay. I should be the one to apologize for keeping you waiting." Irene then took a step forward and sat in her chair.Her hand reached for a cell phone, intending to call one of the cleaning boys who used to make coffee for her."Hello, Chad. Could you please bring me a cup of hot tea? I'm having guests,' Irene said.'All right, Miss Park. I'll make it immediately and deliver it to your room,' said the man on the other end of the phone.'Thank you!'After hanging up the phone, Irene turned to face her mother-in-law, who was sitting in front of her."How are you?" Sharon inquired.Irene smiled, “I'm fine, thank you.
*Flashback On*Sharon and Jacob were sitting on the sofa, waiting for their only child to arrive. At that time, their face looked serious when they discovered that their family company continued to decline.Noah, who had just gotten out of his car, began walking into the house. Noah's mother had previously asked him to come home early because they had something important to discuss. Noah is already aware that his mother will undoubtedly discuss the fate of their company, which is now in Noah's hands.Noah approached his mother and father, who had been waiting all this time, with a leisurely step. Noah sat on the sofa in front of his mother and father, who was still looking at him with serious faces."Where is your promise?" Sharon inquired after Noah had managed to take a seat on the sofa.Noah sighed, “Everything takes time, Mom. I'm still working on it.”"Come on, Noah. Our company's fate is currently in your hands. You'll have no choice but to take my advice.""Do you have the hear
