The lights came back on. And Zayren was standing right in front of her. “What was that video?” she demanded, shock turning into anger. His jaw tightened. “What do you think, Sarang?” he replied evenly. Frustration boiled over. She grabbed his collar tightly. “I don’t know anything! Is this another one of your games?” she accused, suspecting manipulation, another twisted attempt to control her emotions. His expression hardened. “I am not playing any game, Sarang,” he said firmly, his voice low. Suddenly, he pulled her into him, his arms wrapping around her waist as he pressed his forehead against hers. The closeness startled her. She released his collar and pushed against his chest. “Let me go,” she whispered sharply, struggling against his hold, unsure whether she was more afraid of the video she had seen… or the man standing so close to her now. “The video is from the day we were supposed to get married,” Zayren said and the moment the words left his mouth, Sarang stopped s

The next morning, Sarang woke up unusually early. Sleep had barely touched her eyes during the night, but she still forced herself to get up and immerse herself in housework before Reynez woke up. When her son finally came out rubbing his sleepy eyes, she helped him get ready for school as usual, carefully hiding the exhaustion behind a gentle smile. After preparing breakfast and packing his bag, she walked him outside their house to wait for the school bus. The morning air was cool and quiet. As Sarang stood there beside her son, her eyes unconsciously drifted toward the house across the street. Zayren’s car was still parked there. That meant he hadn’t left yet. Her heart tightened as she stared at the closed door, thoughts swirling inside her mind. Just then the door opened. Zayren stepped out, dressed in a sharp formal suit, looking effortlessly handsome as always. Jaxon followed a step behind him. The moment Zayren stepped outside, his eyes instinctively searched for her, and t

Zayren could feel her gaze on him, but he deliberately avoided looking at her. “I was supposed to leave later,” he continued calmly, “but something urgent came up, so I might have to return earlier. I’d like to have a meeting with you before I go back to my home country.” This time he glanced briefly at Sarang, whose mind was already racing. If he left sooner, she would have even less time to decide whether to go with him or not. She couldn’t tell whether this sudden change was truly urgent or if he was forcing her to make a decision faster. Either way, the thought of losing him again tightened painfully around her heart. “Of course, Mr. Kim. We’ll arrange a meeting tomorrow,” Nicholas replied promptly before pausing and turning toward Sarang. “Aera, check my schedule and tell me when we can do this meeting.” Sarang nodded and quickly flipped through the pages of his planner before looking up again. “Between eleven and twelve p.m.,” she answered quietly. Nicholas nodded in a

Looking at her watch again, Sarang sat quietly beside Nicholas in the lounge area of the hotel, waiting for Zayren to arrive. The meeting was scheduled in his hotel this time again, and the silence around them felt heavier than usual. Her mind wasn’t on the documents in front of her but on everything that had happened since yesterday. Every second that passed reminded her that this was the last day before Zayren would leave, and the decision he demanded from her was still unanswered. Nicholas glanced at her from across the table and noticed how deeply she was thinking about something. Clearing his throat softly to get her attention, he leaned back in his chair. “You look really lost today, Aera,” he said casually. Sarang immediately straightened a little, realizing she had been staring blankly at the table. She quickly shook her head, trying to appear composed. “I am thinking about the meeting,” she replied calmly, though her voice carried a faint tension. Nicholas studied her

“No matter how much I tried to hate you,” she continued softly, her voice trembling, “Even in that hate… no other man was able to take your place. Even when I believed that you betrayed me, I never truly let go of what we had.” Tears rolled down her cheeks as she spoke. “I have always loved you. And after knowing the truth… after knowing you were never the one who betrayed me… I love you even more.” She lowered her gaze, guilt flickering across her face. “I’m sorry that because of a misunderstanding you had to stay away from your own child for five years. I can’t even imagine how painful that must have been for you.” Her voice broke as she continued. “That’s why I couldn’t decide… because choosing you felt selfish. And I didn’t want to hurt the man who stood beside me when you weren’t there.” A quiet sob escaped her lips. “I wish I could go back to the day of our wedding,” she whispered. “I wish I had just waited for you. I never wanted to marry anyone else… I only ever wa
