Psst! We're moving!
“What are you going to do by meeting her?”
-If you’re uncomfortable with me meeting Lee Yura directly, you can report her to the police.
“My sister?”
Dojun revealed that Kyung-ae had incurred more debt to President Park. He also mentioned that she had borrowed 100 million won under Yura’s name from Song Young-sook and fled to the Philippines.
Haejoo was speechless at what she heard.
“Where is my sister living now?”
-She’s being held at that person’s farm.
“Song Young-sook... ah, I know who that is.”
Song Young-sook was known as a big shot in their old neighborhood and used to run rotating credit associations.
Kyung-ae, without any fear, had borrowed money from her, who was more sincere about money than anyone else, and then disappeared.
-Haejoo-ya.
“Yes.”
-You didn’t do anything wrong. Even if the past is revealed, don’t be scared.
“I know, but...”
-You mustn’t be swayed by any situation.
“Okay.”
After the call ended, Haejoo prepared for the filming scheduled for the next day.
At the same time, Dojun offered a drink to Secretary Song, who had come up to Seoul with him.
“Did you get some rest in Jeju Island?”
“I slept soundly for the first time in a while.”
“I need to meet Lee Yura.”
“Are you going to go to the farm yourself?”
“Let’s go and see first, then decide.”
Haejoo had run away after suffering unimaginable abuse from her family.
If Dojun hadn’t given Lee-joon fifty million won, a terrible outcome might have occurred.
President Park, Lee-joon, and Dojun had all tried to protect Haejoo in their own ways.
They should have left with Haejoo from the beginning.
If they had, she wouldn’t have met Jinhan...
“Director Yoo Jinhan saw me and Haejoo at the hotel.”
On Saturday evening, Dojun recognized Jinhan as he was getting into the elevator. He had deliberately turned his gaze away, worried that Haejoo might see him.
It was clear that Jinhan was on the verge of breaking down.
He couldn’t forget the expression of despair and defeat on his face.
“Director Yoo Jinhan seems to have feelings for Haejoo, which is uncomfortable in many ways.”
“I will keep a close watch.”
The next day, Dojun finished only the urgent tasks and left his office.
He got into his car and called Song Young-sook.
-Dojun, what brings you here?
Song Young-sook had maintained a long friendship with President Park.
She was also well-acquainted with the twin brothers, Dojun and Lee-joon, and treated them warmly.
“Could I see you for a moment? I’m already on my way.”
-Come to the office.
He left Seoul and arrived at Song Young-sook’s farm.
The car stopped in front of a factory where harvested crops were packaged and shipped.
Song Young-sook came out herself to greet Dojun.
“The farm is big.”
“Just big in size. Come in.”
Song Young-sook treated Dojun with freshly brewed coffee and snacks. Her gaze towards him, who had grown up so well, was affectionate.
“You came because of Yura, didn’t you?”
“Yes. What’s happening with her now?”
“I think she’ll run away before long.”
Song Young-sook had deliberately assigned Yura difficult tasks.
Even then, she played tricks, earning the dislike of the other foreign workers.
“Let’s sue her for fraud.”
“Let’s do that. I’m also bothered by having her around.”
“Lee Yura keeps trying to meet Haejoo.”
“How dare she?”
“It doesn’t seem like Park Kyung-ae will come, so it’s better to get rid of Lee Yura before she causes bigger trouble.”
“My stomach churns about the money I lost. Those bad women.”
Song Young-sook picked up the phone right there and contacted her lawyer.
She had already prepared an indictment for Yura, so all she had to do was file it.
“I’ll take Yura to the police station, so you can go.”
“Thank you.”
Dojun bowed politely and left the factory office.
Workers nearby whispered at the sight of the unusual luxury sedan.
Yura, who saw this from the greenhouse, quickly ducked her head.
“Living the good life. I’m so jealous, so jealous.”
As she grumbled and turned around, she spotted a familiar face.
It was Dojun, one of the handsome twin brothers and currently Haejoo’s husband.
Even from a distance, his aura was impressive.
Yura was mesmerized by Dojun’s appearance, having achieved great success.
It was when he was getting into the back seat of the car that Secretary Song opened for him.
Their eyes almost met, and she quickly hid herself.
“Why did Park Dojun come here?”
An ominous feeling washed over her.
Still, she awkwardly straightened her back and stared at Dojun.
Haejoo was one thing, but she absolutely couldn’t run into Dojun.
To Yura, the human being Park Dojun was a monster itself, and the thought alone made her legs tremble.
“Seeing him come here suddenly, something’s up.”
Yura suddenly pretended to have a stomachache and whined.
That day, she received permission from the work foreman to leave early and left the farm with only the necessary belongings.
Dojun also received this information.
Before leaving work, he called Secretary Song and gave a firm order.
“Find Lee Yura as quickly as possible.”
“Understood.”
After Secretary Song left, Dojun opened a locked drawer. Inside were testimonies he had received from the old villagers.
Among them were recordings and video evidence.
These were the materials Dojun had collected to prove Kyung-ae and Yura’s wrongdoings.
“Let’s end this tiresome war.”
It would be difficult to use these materials without the consent of Haejoo herself.
It was time for Haejoo, who suffered from trauma just hearing Yura’s name, to find courage.
“Lee Yura... so shameless.”
Dojun had a dirty memory involving Yura that he didn’t even want to recall.
It was around the time after he had saved Haejoo from the rooftop railing and his intense one-sided love began.
For some reason, a bet had started among some unremarkable guys.
The details of the bet he happened to overhear were beyond imagination.
‘Hey, did you hear that rumor?’
‘What rumor?’
‘Lee Yura is selling her own sister.’
‘How?’
‘She says if you pay 100,000 won, she’ll let you date Haejoo.’
‘Date, so does it go all the way?’
‘She said that costs extra.’
It was something a human being should never do.
Dojun’s blood ran cold, and blue veins stood out on his clenched fist.
‘If you can go all the way with Haejoo for 100,000 won, isn’t it over? Let’s do it.’
‘You think Haejoo will allow it just because Yura says so?’
‘She’s a kid abandoned by her family anyway, so whatever.’
‘Why don’t we give Yura some money and take turns?’
‘The first one to succeed wins!’
After that, Dojun had no clear memories.
He had made the guys who were there crawl out on all fours.
They were so terrified that they didn’t even report it to the police.
Their conversation was fully recorded on Dojun’s phone, and they begged him profusely.
Please, just don’t report us.
After that, guys who believed Yura’s words appeared.
He would unleash his friends, and if any information came in, hell would break loose that night.
Then one day, Yura came to find Dojun. It was a dark, narrow alley with no one around.
As soon as Dojun saw Yura, he secretly turned on the recording function on his phone.
‘Are you that crazy bastard?’
‘Move.’
‘I was wondering who was interfering with my business, so I came to take a look.’
‘......’
Dojun tried to pass by without replying.
Then Yura quickly blocked his way.
‘Hey, you crazy bastard! You like Haejoo, don’t you?’
‘Get lost.’
‘I need money, and you ruined everything!’
‘Trash like you deserves to be struck by lightning.’
“You’re predictable anyway.”
“What?”
“Given the chance, wouldn’t you want to do something to Haejoo?”
He couldn’t hit a woman, and Dojun’s violently bulging fist trembled menacingly.
Yet, Yura remained unfazed and provoked him.
“I’ll give you a special chance to make up for it.”
“Hoo!”
“I heard your family has a lot of money? Just give me a million won. Then I’ll give Haejoo to you...”
Whack!
Unable to endure it any longer, Dojun punched the wall in the alley.
Yura screamed in terror and cowered.
Blood seeped from the back of his hand.
Seeing this, Yura slowly backed away.
“You! You’ll regret doing this to me.”
The next day, five men surrounded Dojun on his way home.
They held solid wooden clubs in their hands.
They were the kind of guys Yura usually hung out with, all looking like thugs.
“Oppa, that guy tried to hit me. Teach him a lesson.”
He was outnumbered.
Yet, Dojun didn’t back down.
The five men rushed at him at once, and a brawl broke out. Fortunately, a neighbor who recognized Dojun informed President Park of the situation.
President Park rushed to the scene of the fight with the police.
Seeing his son fighting to the end even in a crisis, he gave up completely.
Due to this incident, Yura couldn’t touch Haejoo. Only she, the person involved, didn’t know about Dojun’s efforts...
“I miss seeing Lee Haejoo.”
On a whim, he called Haejoo.
He was about to hang up when she answered.
“Are you busy?”
-I was waiting for the next shot.
“I have something to allow you to do.”
-What is it?
“If Lee Yura gets arrested, she’s bound to say nonsense.”
-She probably will.
“Then you’ll have to defend yourself by revealing your past.”
A sigh escaped Haejoo.
The pain that had been heavily pressing down on her even as she breathed was conveyed as it was.
-Will my sister be arrested right away?
“I filed the charges today, and I heard she ran away from the farm. I’ll find her as soon as possible.”
-Okay.
“Delaying will be disadvantageous. Let’s settle everything this time.”
-Okay. Thank you.
“When is your day off?”
-I think I’ll have Sunday off.
“I’ll go down then.”
-Are you really coming?
“Yeah. I don’t want to be lonely.”
At his honest answer, Haejoo tightly pursed her lips.
Dojun could clearly picture the expression on her face, and the corners of his lips lifted.
-Is that all you ever think about?
“That’s all I think about when I see you.”
-You’re such a pervert.
“I want to do even more.”
-You’re crazy, really.
“I want to have kids with you and live like everyone else.”
-Kids... that sounds like a very distant story.
“We’ve already started.”
-Started what?
“Why are you asking when you know? We’ve already done everything.”
-Are you just going to keep saying things like that?
It was fun teasing Haejoo.
Just as Dojun was feeling inwardly satisfied, he heard someone calling her from the other side of the phone.
-I have to go now.
“Okay.”
As Dojun tidied up and stood, Secretary Song came in.
He showed his raw, intense eyes to the man who was helping him leave work.
“Prepare everything as quickly as possible and sue Choi In-ho too.”
“Understood.”
“Spread a press release about the lawsuit to make the issue bigger.”
“Yes, CEO.”
The reason Dojun could finally move was Haejoo.
This was something difficult to do unless she became completely his.
Last weekend became a new turning point in his life.
It was part of a perfect plan and was still going according to his expectations.
________________________________________
Having escaped the farm, Yura boarded a bus heading for Seoul.
She searched online for Haejoo’s social media accounts but couldn’t find any.
“Song Young-sook and Park Dojun definitely conspired to bring me to the farm.”
She had nowhere to go for the time being.
While scrolling through social media, she found the account of Minju, a friend she used to hang out with.
Hoping for the best, she sent a DM, and soon she received a response.
[Are you really Yura?]
[Yeah, I got divorced and came to Korea. But I have nowhere to go.]
[Come to my place.]
[Aren’t you married?]
[I’m alone.]
Taking the opportunity, they caught up with each other through chatting.
Yura went to the address Minju gave her.
She had been excited at the offer to stay, but she was disappointed when she saw the state of the place.
It was a small studio apartment in the basement of an old multi-unit house, and it was a mess.
“I go to work at night, so you do the cleaning and stuff.”
Thinking it was better than living on the streets, Yura unpacked her belongings.
The next day, Kyung-ae called, but she didn’t answer.
From now on, it was every person for themselves.
Yura had to meet Haejoo somehow, so a few days later, she went to GN Entertainment again.
She deliberately waited across the street.
Her appearance alone caused a stir within the company.
“Director, that person who says she’s Haejoo-ssi’s older sister is here again and won’t leave!”
Jinhan, who had gone to the window, watched Yura intently.
Since she hadn’t entered the building, he couldn’t kick her out.
“What should we do?”
“Just leave her for now. Keep a close eye on whether any reporters approach her.”
“Yes.”
Yura was persistent.
Every time GN Entertainment employees went in and out, she would cling to them and beg them to let her meet Haejoo.
The manager team leader, unable to watch any longer, came upstairs.
Pointing out the window, he said firmly to Jinhan, “We can’t leave that woman alone. She’s definitely going to cause trouble.”
Jinhan’s laptop displayed articles about Haejoo and Dojun taken in Jeju Island.
Even after the weekend, it was still a hot topic, and the message boards were in an uproar.
However, Jinhan, reading the articles, was cold.
He lifted his coldly hardened gaze and glared at the manager team leader.
“What more do you want me to do?”
“Director...”
Jinhan had lost 4 kg in just a few days.
He rubbed his gaunt face and reluctantly picked up his phone.
The number he dialed was the secretary’s office of the Gino Group.
