00:00:00The girl originally is a wealthy Harris from the largest conglomerate in the country,
00:00:05yet Ha-Yin is always misunderstood by him as being unemployed.
00:00:09From her inability to use a photocopier to the gossip of her colleague Yun-Wu,
00:00:13he constantly worries that one day she will be fired.
00:00:16Seeing Ha and standing at the door watching the downpour,
00:00:20Yun-Wu thinks she doesn't have an umbrella, so he approaches and offers hers to her,
00:00:25mentioning that his family owns a large farm in the countryside
00:00:27and he can fully take care of her.
00:00:30Ha-Yin doesn't understand what he is trying to say,
00:00:33and Yun-Wu calmly declares his affection for her,
00:00:35a sudden confession that leaves Ha-Yin speechless.
00:00:39Before she can respond, Yun-Wu has already run away,
00:00:43seeing his charming demeanor.
00:00:44The cold heart of the Harris is touched.
00:00:47Soon after, Yun-Wu also discovers her wealthy background,
00:00:51and out of embarrassment, he submits his resignation at work.
00:00:55Lying around at home, Yun-Wu suddenly receives a message telling him to go outside.
00:01:00Ha-Yin steps down from a helicopter, stunning everyone.
00:01:03Eventually, both of them realize their feelings for each other,
00:01:07a love that cannot be shaken, but every story has its end.
00:01:11Today marks the third anniversary of their wedding.
00:01:13Yun-Wu outwardly appears happy, but internally is preparing divorce papers.
00:01:18Over three years of living with his wife's family,
00:01:21he has not been truly happy as he imagined, from being the pride of his village.
00:01:26Yun-Wu now lives subdued without a voice in his wife's family.
00:01:29All decisions, big and small, are made solely by his wife,
00:01:34and always being oppressed by her family.
00:01:36Yun-Wu thinks of freeing himself.
00:01:39After a family meeting, he wants to talk to Ha-Yin,
00:01:42but she dismisses him, valuing her work time above all.
00:01:46Angry, Yun-Wu storms out of the house,
00:01:48unaware that Ha-Yin always cares for him,
00:01:51though she doesn't show it outwardly.
00:01:53After hearing her brother bedmouth her husband,
00:01:56Ha-Yin fiercely scolds him,
00:01:58warning that disrespecting her husband again would not end well.
00:02:01Meanwhile, Yun-Wu goes to drink with a close friend,
00:02:05sharing his deep troubles of marrying a domineering woman.
00:02:08His main job now is only to handle the drama from his wife's family members,
00:02:12and Yun-Wu wants to end this deadlock once and for all.
00:02:16Yun-Wu returns home drunk, but still lacks the courage to talk to his wife,
00:02:21as if an invisible barrier separates them.
00:02:23The next day is the annual Memorial Day of the Queen Conglomerate,
00:02:27and all sons-in-law in the clan must be present to prepare the ceremonial offerings.
00:02:32Although they are all exceptional talents in front of the Queen Conglomerate,
00:02:37they are merely cheap labor.
00:02:38The Memorial Day attracts many domestic journalists who come to report on the Queen Conglomerate.
00:02:44As the ceremony begins, a woman unexpectedly interrupts it.
00:02:48She is the youngest daughter of the chairman who disrupts the event
00:02:51because she dislikes her father's new girlfriend,
00:02:54leaving the chairman with no choice but to watch his dutiful daughter wreak havoc on the Memorial Day.
00:03:00Her deep-seated anger is palpable,
00:03:02and despite attempts to intervene, they cannot stop her,
00:03:05nor can they stop the eldest son who has disowned the family from showing up.
00:03:09The chairman, disheartened, watches his son stand in the rain in front of the journalists,
00:03:15with no intention of forgiving him.
00:03:17Meanwhile, in the kitchen, the sons-in-law always gossip about their sufferings,
00:03:22expressing sympathy for Hyunwoo for marrying a daunting Harris.
00:03:26Before the ceremony ends, Hyunwoo is ordered to investigate his father-in-law's subordinates,
00:03:31suspecting secretive activities behind his back,
00:03:34which terrifies him upon hearing his father-in-law's honied words.
00:03:38Weighed down by pressure, Hyunwoo confides his fears to a psychologist,
00:03:42worried that he might be killed one day.
00:03:45If he divorces, his father-in-law will deal with him.
00:03:48The doctor can only prescribe him the strongest medication,
00:03:52feeling pity for this doomed young man.
00:03:54At that moment,
00:03:55Hyunwoo unexpectedly receives a call from a hospital professor
00:03:58who wants her to come to his office immediately.
00:04:01She wants her husband to accompany her, but he refuses.
00:04:05Hyunwoo just wants to keep his distance from his wife
00:04:07and drives back to his hometown,
00:04:09where his parents are thrilled to see their beloved son return.
00:04:13However, his desire to divorce his wife shocks the family.
00:04:16They suspect he has someone else, but that is not the case.
00:04:20Despite heartfelt advice, no one can change his mind.
00:04:24Hyunwoo drives back in a heavy mood,
00:04:26takes the prepared divorce papers from the safe,
00:04:28opens the door, and walks into his wife's room without hesitation.
00:04:33Hyunwoo returns home from his drinking session,
00:04:36feeling more intimidated by Hyunwoo's fierce look
00:04:39and lacking the confidence to confront her.
00:04:42Unexpectedly, Hyunwoo also has something she wants to discuss.
00:04:45She coldly reveals that she is about to die,
00:04:48estimating she has about three months left,
00:04:51which strikes Hyunwoo like a bolt from the blue,
00:04:54leaving him in disbelief.
00:04:55He quickly hides the divorce papers before she notices them.
00:04:59Overwhelmed, Hyunwoo switches to an emotional mode,
00:05:02expressing deep sorrow upon hearing this dreadful news,
00:05:06tears starting to roll down his cheeks.
00:05:08He hugs his wife tightly,
00:05:10declaring that he cannot live without her.
00:05:12Believing his words to be sincere,
00:05:14Hyunwoo proposes that they die together.
00:05:17Hyunwoo is terrified by her casual suggestion
00:05:19and tries to resist,
00:05:21but his efforts are insignificant.
00:05:23He quickly changes the topic of their conversation,
00:05:26helps her sit on the bed,
00:05:28and asks attentively about what the doctor said.
00:05:31Hyunwoo recounts that she has been diagnosed with a malignant tumor,
00:05:34which will soon erase her memory,
00:05:36explaining how she finds herself in different places
00:05:39without remembering how she got there,
00:05:41causing her to miss an important appointment with her husband.
00:05:44The doctor has explained
00:05:45that this is a symptom of a rare condition
00:05:48called cloud mass tumor,
00:05:50which has complicated her case.
00:05:51The tumors have spread throughout her nerves,
00:05:54possibly causing frequent hallucinations
00:05:56and loss of focus.
00:05:58Anxiously,
00:05:59Hyun asks how she could completely cure this disease,
00:06:02but the doctor shakes his head,
00:06:04stating that there is currently no cure available
00:06:06and can only prescribe painkillers.
00:06:09Anjured,
00:06:10Hyun vows to the doctor
00:06:11that she will beat this dreadful disease.
00:06:13Returning to the present,
00:06:15Hyunwoo has a better understanding
00:06:17of his wife's medical condition.
00:06:18She is frustrated by the absurdity of the situation,
00:06:22a minor illness that the doctor can't cure.
00:06:25Hyunwoo suggests that they visit the doctor again the next day,
00:06:28as he wants to hear directly from the doctor about her condition,
00:06:32fearing he won't be able to sleep due to worry about her.
00:06:35However,
00:06:35that night,
00:06:36he sleeps very soundly,
00:06:38experiencing a comfort he hadn't felt in three years.
00:06:41Hyunwoo looks at the clear blue sky with a fresh smile,
00:06:45realizing he has only three months left
00:06:47before he can leave this house.
00:06:49Although his conscience does not allow it,
00:06:51he cannot deny his feelings.
00:06:53The next morning,
00:06:54Hyunwoo goes to wake his wife,
00:06:56but she doesn't respond,
00:06:57which frightens him.
00:06:59He slowly approaches to check on her,
00:07:01noticing no signs of movement.
00:07:03Hyunwoo is startled and kneels before Ha-in.
00:07:06Unexpectedly,
00:07:07she opens her eyes,
00:07:08startling him and prompting him to give her a morning kiss.
00:07:12Ha-in,
00:07:13perceptive,
00:07:14notices her husband's unusually good mood,
00:07:16suggesting he had a sound sleep the previous night.
00:07:19Caught off guard by her observation,
00:07:22Hyunwoo quickly changes his clothes
00:07:24and takes her to the hospital.
00:07:26At the hospital,
00:07:27Hyunwoo seriously asks the doctor once more
00:07:30for a precise estimate of his wife's chances of survival,
00:07:33considering it a matter of great importance in his life.
00:07:36Ha-in,
00:07:37not wanting to hear more about her medical condition,
00:07:40leads for her company early and unexpectedly,
00:07:42runs into her mother.
00:07:43Her mother asks where her son-in-law is,
00:07:46upset because her brother had mistakenly overpaid $8 billion won in taxes.
00:07:51Ha-in,
00:07:52disheartened,
00:07:53observes her mother's concern for her son
00:07:55and feels neglected,
00:07:56as her mother shows no worry for her daughter,
00:07:59who has only three months to live.
00:08:01Ha-in chooses not to discuss her illness with her mother anymore,
00:08:04instead threatening to torment her beloved brother for the rest of his life.
00:08:08Meanwhile, Hyunwoo is enjoying a meal with his close friend,
00:08:12sharing the good news that his wife has only three months left to live,
00:08:16finally seeing it as a way out of his stagnant life.
00:08:19Since it's a significant matter,
00:08:20the two head to the riverside to carefully plan their next steps.
00:08:24His friend wants to celebrate,
00:08:26but Hyunwoo maintains a calm demeanor.
00:08:28However,
00:08:29it is uncertain whether he will inherit the conglomerate,
00:08:32as Ha-in had written in her will before their marriage
00:08:35that he would not receive a penny if she died,
00:08:37with all her assets going to her family.
00:08:40His friend begins to devise a plan,
00:08:42suggesting that Hyunwoo has three months to convince his wife to amend her will,
00:08:47showing her genuine affection,
00:08:49so that when she is moved,
00:08:50all the assets will transfer to him.
00:08:52Hyunwoo is angered by his friend's pragmatic view,
00:08:55but soon after,
00:08:56he buys flowers to ingratiate himself with his wife.
00:08:59Ha-in,
00:09:00seeing his unusual behavior and the large bouquet,
00:09:03becomes suspicious.
00:09:05She suspects he is putting on an act now that he knows about her illness.
00:09:09Despite verbally disliking the anniversary bouquet,
00:09:12she still prepares a vase to place them in.
00:09:15From that day forward,
00:09:16Hyunwoo takes special care of his wife,
00:09:19from moving their dining seats closer together
00:09:21to skillfully peeling shrimp for her.
00:09:23Ha-in is puzzled by her husband's strange,
00:09:26but welcomed new behavior,
00:09:28yet she accepts it.
00:09:29During a company meeting,
00:09:31when Ha-in choked on water,
00:09:32Hyunwoo urgently called for an ambulance,
00:09:35prompting everyone to discuss his overly attentive behavior.
00:09:39His sister-in-law speculated that he was acting out of a desire to survive.
00:09:43Ha-in's personal secretary was embarrassed by witnessing the couple's affection.
00:09:47During a family dinner,
00:09:49their mother unexpectedly announced that she would file a lawsuit against Ha-in's department store the next day,
00:09:55clearly aiming to trouble her own daughter.
00:09:57Even her father defended the mother,
00:09:59which infuriated Ha-in.
00:10:01She stood up,
00:10:02challenging her mother if she dared to follow through with the lawsuit.
00:10:05While her mother was trying to explain,
00:10:08Hyunwoo interjected,
00:10:09saying he would handle the situation smoothly.
00:10:12Then he pulled Ha-in away from the uncomfortable atmosphere.
00:10:15In the elevator,
00:10:16Ha-in voiced her suspicions,
00:10:18feeling that Hyunwoo was the most questionable person,
00:10:21questioning when he had started caring so much for her,
00:10:24which hurt Hyunwoo,
00:10:25feeling she had been too harsh.
00:10:27The next evening,
00:10:28Ha-in went to her husband's room
00:10:29and found him asleep at the desk.
00:10:32She was about to wake him when the screen lit up with an article about her illness,
00:10:36touching her deeply as she realized he truly wanted to take care of her.
00:10:40She declared that she would try to survive the terrible disease,
00:10:44motivated by her husband's affection to fight once more.
00:10:47Hyunwoo, hearing these words,
00:10:49felt as if his life had reached a conclusion,
00:10:51realizing that all his actions were motivated by the inheritance mentioned in the will.
00:10:56Today was the grand opening of Ha-in's shopping mall,
00:10:59attended by many important guests,
00:11:02including a bitter rival.
00:11:03This rival confidently told Ha-in a juicy piece of news
00:11:07that a major director was planning to invest in her company.
00:11:10A nod from this director could bring huge profits
00:11:13that would crush the queen conglomerate,
00:11:15not just in business,
00:11:17but also sharing rumors that Ha-in and her husband were about to divorce.
00:11:21The rival insinuated that Ha-in had married a gold digger,
00:11:25but Ha-in dismissed her,
00:11:26believing she knew nothing about her husband.
00:11:29Just as Ha-in was about to greet the director,
00:11:31the rival stopped her,
00:11:33revealing that her former lover was now the director's right-hand man.
00:11:37Finally, the two longtime friends had a chance to talk privately,
00:11:41and Ha-in still disliked him for always making her uncomfortable.
00:11:45Ha-in told her ex straightforwardly
00:11:47that she needed his help to collaborate with director Ro.
00:11:50Impressed by her assertive character,
00:11:53it seemed he still had feelings for Ha-in.
00:11:55Just as she was about to greet the director,
00:11:58Hyunwoo appeared,
00:11:59announcing that he had hurriedly won a court case to be there.
00:12:02The conversation went better than expected,
00:12:04and while Ha-in was greeting other partners,
00:12:07Ro approached Hyunwoo for a chat.
00:12:10Ro repeatedly emphasized that he and Ha-in had once had a good relationship
00:12:14and were former lovers,
00:12:16but noticing that Hyunwoo wasn't bothered by this revelation,
00:12:20Ro guessed that the couple might be heading for a divorce.
00:12:23Hit where it hurt,
00:12:24Hyunwoo felt irritated
00:12:25and thought that if Ro still liked Ha-in,
00:12:28he should try pursuing her.
00:12:30During the annual hunting event of the queen conglomerate,
00:12:33Ro was invited as a guest of honor,
00:12:35and everyone was excited about the occasion.
00:12:38However, Hyunwoo was not interested in hunting,
00:12:41so each year he returned empty-handed,
00:12:44leading others to assume he was inept with firearms.
00:12:47In contrast,
00:12:48Ha-in was eager to win
00:12:49and unaware that the others had set a trap for her.
00:12:52While Ha-in was hunting,
00:12:54she was suddenly attacked by a wild boar.
00:12:56Fortunately, Hyunwoo appeared just in time to save her from danger.
00:13:01Ha-in reminisced about the time they were in love,
00:13:04a time when Hyunwoo still didn't know
00:13:06she was a harress of a wealthy family.
00:13:08It was their happiest period,
00:13:10during which he had promised to take care of her for life.
00:13:13That promise had now become a reality
00:13:15as he had just saved Ha-in from danger.
00:13:18At that moment,
00:13:19Ro-sang came to inquire,
00:13:20but was stopped by Hyunwoo.
00:13:22Hyunwoo quickly took his wife and turned back.
00:13:25On the way,
00:13:27noticing that she was injured in the leg,
00:13:29Hyunwoo took the initiative to carry her to the family resort.
00:13:33Everyone was surprised to see the affection between them.
00:13:36And while everyone was worried about Ha-in being attacked by the wild boar,
00:13:40her younger brother doubted his brother-in-law could shoot a wild boar.
00:13:44Her father-in-law mentioned that the wild boar's skin is very thick,
00:13:48and without hitting the weak spot,
00:13:50it would charge,
00:13:51requiring someone experienced to handle it.
00:13:53Ha-in said that Hyunwoo was once an elite special forces soldier,
00:13:58just that he didn't want to show off.
00:14:00As the evening began,
00:14:01Hyunwoo revealed that someone had intentionally broken the fence to lure the wild boar.
00:14:06The aunt suspected her father's new girlfriend was behind this,
00:14:10but the chairman said to check the cameras tomorrow.
00:14:12And for now,
00:14:13they should enjoy the hunt's success.
00:14:16For the first time at dinner,
00:14:17Hyunwoo was treated specially by his father-in-law,
00:14:20who began to look at him more favorably after saving his daughter.
00:14:24Realizing her daughter's elevated status,
00:14:26the mother changed the topic by striking a conversation with Ro-song.
00:14:31She told him to consider this his second family,
00:14:33and to come over for meals with the chairman whenever he was free.
00:14:37Ro-song,
00:14:38knowing how to please others,
00:14:39noticed the chairman liked the farm owner's dog.
00:14:42So after the party,
00:14:43he spent $100 million to force the owner to sell the dog.
00:14:46Meanwhile, Hyunwoo hesitated to enter the bedroom with his wife,
00:14:51trying to keep himself busy,
00:14:52but was caught by his sister-in-law.
00:14:54He quickly pushed him into his sister's room.
00:14:57Hyunwoo took gentle steps towards his wife's bed,
00:15:00and unexpectedly,
00:15:01Hyunwoo spoke up,
00:15:02startling him.
00:15:03She asked why he had come back so late,
00:15:06and Hyunwoo used the excuse of helping his sister-in-law with some legal matters.
00:15:10Unaware,
00:15:11Hyunwoo thought her husband was being bullied and jumped up,
00:15:15intending to confront her brother.
00:15:16But was stopped by her husband.
00:15:18Her anger somewhat subsided.
00:15:20Hyunwoo wanted to take a bath to cool off,
00:15:23and asked him to unbutton her shirt.
00:15:25Hyunwoo,
00:15:26bewildered,
00:15:27stood still,
00:15:27but still helped his wife.
00:15:29Sensing the awkwardness from him,
00:15:31Hyunwoo suggested that he shower first.
00:15:34She began to recall the moment Hyunwoo rushed out to save her.
00:15:37It had been a long time since she found her husband so handsome,
00:15:41as if he was a different person.
00:15:42She tried to calm herself,
00:15:44but the bathroom door opened.
00:15:46Hyunwoo,
00:15:47without a cloth on,
00:15:48came into her sight,
00:15:50and Hyunwoo felt shy upon seeing his robust body.
00:15:53She quickly ran into the bathroom to stabilize her mind,
00:15:56wondering what had happened to his upper body.
00:15:59It had been a long time since the couple had the chance to sleep together,
00:16:02and this unfamiliar feeling made the atmosphere even more awkward.
00:16:06Hyun remembered the first time at his house,
00:16:09they had slept peacefully in that cramped bed,
00:16:11quite different from now.
00:16:13Curiously, Hyunwoo wondered how they could have done that.
00:16:16Unexpectedly,
00:16:17Hyunwoo suggested they sleep hugging each other,
00:16:20but he immediately declined.
00:16:22The next morning,
00:16:23Ro-Song angrily held a gun in front of the house owner,
00:16:26furious upon learning that the farm owner wanted to return his money to save the dog.
00:16:31Though he got his money back,
00:16:33he still aimed the gun wanting to shoot the dog.
00:16:36Just then,
00:16:36a stern voice spoke up.
00:16:38Hyunwoo coldly asked him what he was doing.
00:16:41Ro-Song said he was just joking with them,
00:16:43and then he left when Hyunwoo intervened.
00:16:45The owner recognized him as the child who had cold-bloodedly killed the neighbor's beloved puppy,
00:16:51a disgusting monster.
00:16:53At the same time,
00:16:54the chairman discovered the person at the fence gap,
00:16:57infuriated to find out it was his eldest son.
00:17:00The next day,
00:17:01both the father-in-law and Hyunwoo went to his house to sort things out,
00:17:05and he was furious to be suspected of intentionally releasing the wild boar.
00:17:09The father-in-law was uncompromising because his daughter had been endangered.
00:17:13He sat down to explain he just wanted to talk to his father,
00:17:17but he was wrongfully accused and sent away.
00:17:20Before leaving,
00:17:21he pleaded for a chance to meet the chairman.
00:17:23Upon returning home,
00:17:25the father-in-law met the chairman's girlfriend,
00:17:27but she claimed she hadn't seen the eldest son
00:17:30and warned him to be careful with his own brother
00:17:32and not to trust anyone.
00:17:34The turmoil continued for Hyunwoo
00:17:36when his mother-in-law wanted them to divorce.
00:17:39She had someone contact to matchmake her daughter with Ro-Song.
00:17:43Clearly having an advantage in both money and status over his son-in-law,
00:17:47if he could attract Ro-Song,
00:17:49his son would be guaranteed to inherit the corporation.
00:17:52As scheduled,
00:17:53today,
00:17:53Hai and went to meet the director at Herman,
00:17:56but upon arrival,
00:17:57she only saw Ro-Song waiting for her.
00:18:00He informed her that the director was unexpectedly busy and couldn't make it,
00:18:04so he would help her review the commercial center floor plan.
00:18:07With his understanding of the director,
00:18:09he pointed out the shortcomings in her proposal,
00:18:12thereby refining the draft further.
00:18:14Meanwhile, Hyunwoo had just found out that his siblings went up there to meet Ha-In,
00:18:19worried they would reveal his intention to divorce.
00:18:22However,
00:18:23his sister acted quickly,
00:18:25sending a message to her sister-in-law.
00:18:27Hyunwoo tried to call his wife to explain,
00:18:30but was unable to reach her.
00:18:31Taking the opportunity when she stepped out,
00:18:34Ro-Song turned off Ha-In's phone.
00:18:36When she returned,
00:18:37he told her he had seen Hyunwoo hesitate when rescuing her.
00:18:41Ha-In was momentarily stunned,
00:18:43but quickly regained her smile,
00:18:45proudly saying that was the difference between the two men.
00:18:48While Hyunwoo tried to save her,
00:18:50Ro-Song just stood watching.
00:18:52Unwilling to lose to her,
00:18:54Ro-Song questioned whether she truly loved her husband,
00:18:57noticing the hesitation in Ha-In's words,
00:18:59which made him smile.
00:19:01The party was winding down,
00:19:03and he took Ha-In back home.
00:19:04Hyunwoo, waiting at the gate,
00:19:07was very upset to see his wife drunk,
00:19:09knowing her tolerance was already low.
00:19:12Ro-Song still intentionally provoked the couple's feelings,
00:19:15even though Hyunwoo, her husband,
00:19:17was there, which really angered him.
00:19:20He immediately ordered the driver
00:19:21to take the disrespectful man home,
00:19:23then quickly ran towards his wife.
00:19:25Hyunwoo wanted to check
00:19:27if she received the message from his sister,
00:19:29but a drunken Ha-In said he had no right to betray her.
00:19:32Just as she pulled out her phone,
00:19:35Hyunwoo quickly ran over and knocked it out of her hand.
00:19:38Ha-In was stunned to see her husband act so strangely,
00:19:41but she slowly gave him a passionate kiss.
00:19:44Two people awkwardly entered Hyunwoo's house.
00:19:46Hyunwoo, eager to secretly check his wife's phone,
00:19:50followed her to the room.
00:19:51However, Ha-In misunderstood,
00:19:54thinking he wanted to come into the room with her.
00:19:56She was excited,
00:19:57seeing her husband so enchanted by her.
00:20:00Outside, hearing his wife go into the bathroom,
00:20:03Hyunwoo took a risk and entered.
00:20:05He tried all sorts of passwords,
00:20:07from his own birthday to their wedding anniversary,
00:20:10but the phone wouldn't unlock.
00:20:12Time passed.
00:20:13Eventually, guessing the password might be 1931,
00:20:17the phone finally unlocked.
00:20:18He quickly deleted all messages from his sister.
00:20:21Just as he finished,
00:20:23Ha-In came out,
00:20:24surprised to find him still there.
00:20:26Hyunwoo explained he couldn't sleep
00:20:28and had come to talk.
00:20:30Ha-In smiled understandingly at this childish excuse,
00:20:33and despite his attempts to leave,
00:20:35she still wanted to talk.
00:20:37However, Hyunwoo quickly ran back to his room
00:20:39before things went too far.
00:20:41He fondly remembered the password
00:20:43was the expected due date of their first child,
00:20:46and he was happy about becoming a father.
00:20:48They had dedicated a whole large room for the baby,
00:20:51but this small joy was not complete.
00:20:53The pain was too great to bear.
00:20:55The next morning, waking up,
00:20:57Hyunwoo saw his wife drinking orange juice
00:21:00to cure a hangover.
00:21:01Reminded of the curses from Ro-Song,
00:21:03the previous night,
00:21:05he became annoyed.
00:21:06Unexpectedly, Ha-In approached,
00:21:08which made him more expectant than ever.
00:21:10But she only removed a thread stuck to his shirt.
00:21:13After breakfast, Ha-In dressed for work,
00:21:16and seeing her beautiful figure,
00:21:18Hyunwoo was mesmerized.
00:21:20He wondered why Ha-In was so beautiful,
00:21:22feeling his heart flutter once again.
00:21:24His subordinate noticed his good mood and inquired,
00:21:28making Hyunwoo realize he really had a problem.
00:21:31While passing by the meeting room,
00:21:33he saw his wife frowning,
00:21:34predicting she was about to scold an employee.
00:21:37But soon after, she smiled beautifully.
00:21:39Hyunwoo was alarmed by his own infatuation
00:21:42and shared the day's events with his close friend,
00:21:45who was surprised that Hyunwoo had bought shoes for his wife.
00:21:48He said it was because she hadn't revised her will,
00:21:51so Hyunwoo was actively proving himself to be a good husband.
00:21:55His sincerity made Ha-In feel happy.
00:21:58For the first time,
00:21:59she wore the shoes he gifted her to work,
00:22:01but her joy was short-lived as Ro-Song showed up to cause trouble.
00:22:05A colleague mentioned that the two often met and had lunch together,
00:22:09and Hyunwoo explained it was because his wife was a workaholic.
00:22:13Before he could finish his sentence,
00:22:15Ro-Song reached out and touched his wife's hair.
00:22:18Hyunwoo smirked,
00:22:19thinking his wife would scold the man.
00:22:22But he was wrong.
00:22:23Ha-In smiled brighter than ever.
00:22:25His friend was puzzled to see Hyunwoo jealous,
00:22:28wondering if he had fallen for her again.
00:22:30Despite his attempts to explain,
00:22:32he couldn't fool his friend.
00:22:34At the same time,
00:22:35Ha-In was with her rival,
00:22:37having a private meeting with director Herman.
00:22:39But before the meeting,
00:22:41Ro-Song told her of the director's weakness.
00:22:43The director was having an affair with a famous designer,
00:22:46and if she attacked that point,
00:22:48he would have to agree to her terms.
00:22:50Ha-In was grateful that Ro-Song sacrificed his relationship for her benefit.
00:22:55Only he knew about the director's affair.
00:22:57Ha-In said she would repay him on another occasion.
00:23:00When Hyunwoo returned,
00:23:01she was obediently waiting for him,
00:23:04delighted when he bought her favorite cake,
00:23:06with some good news to share.
00:23:07When he opened it,
00:23:08he was shocked to find a notice from a center
00:23:11that could potentially cure her illness,
00:23:13with the survival rate having increased to 51%.
00:23:16Hyunwoo screamed and ran around the yard at this shocking news.
00:23:20If she was cured,
00:23:21he would once again be reduced to a servant in his wife's family.
00:23:25Just the thought made his skin crawl.
00:23:27He did not want to return to that oppressive life.
00:23:30Hyunwoo thought he should divorce as originally planned,
00:23:33but the thought of Ha-In's expression
00:23:34made him fearfully dismiss the idea.
00:23:36The next morning,
00:23:38as soon as he came downstairs,
00:23:40the rival appeared again,
00:23:42and Hyunwoo tried to intervene between the two,
00:23:44but his wife pushed him away.
00:23:46Although he tried to show his displeasure to Ro-Song,
00:23:49it was clear that he didn't care much.
00:23:52He even pulled the curtains to block Hyunwoo's view.
00:23:54Ha-In felt happy seeing her husband so jealous,
00:23:57noticing every little gesture she made.
00:24:00Hyunwoo called his close friend to continue sharing his woes,
00:24:03saying that if he wanted a divorce,
00:24:05he should let her go to her rival.
00:24:07However, Hyunwoo couldn't accept this.
00:24:10He didn't want her to fall into the hands of someone as cold-hearted as him.
00:24:14That night, Ha-In returned home exhausted after a stressful day at work.
00:24:19Her mother was already waiting in the living room,
00:24:21angry that Ro-Song had refused to invest in her son's project.
00:24:25She blamed Ha-In for hindering her and was barely able to stand anymore.
00:24:29Fortunately, Hyunwoo arrived just in time to support her.
00:24:33He took his wife to their room and advised her to discuss this with the family.
00:24:37But Ha-In did not want to.
00:24:39She hated others taking her rightful place.
00:24:42But deep down, she didn't want her family to be shocked.
00:24:45They had already lost their eldest son.
00:24:48If she now told them she had only three months left,
00:24:50her parents might not survive the news.
00:24:53Ha-In pleaded not to be treated as a patient anymore,
00:24:56and then sent him out.
00:24:57Meanwhile, taking advantage of the chaos at home,
00:25:01Ro-Song planned to take over all shares of Queen Corporation.
00:25:04He had already bought a large number of shares from various investors.
00:25:08Ha-In was still unaware of this plan.
00:25:10While on her way to check a new shopping center,
00:25:13Ha-In encountered someone deliberately causing trouble at a stall.
00:25:17He claimed the center sold his wife's substandard cosmetics,
00:25:20not only demanding compensation, but also vandalizing the store.
00:25:24Ha-In, extremely annoyed.
00:25:27Ha-In intervened, and ordered her subordinates to arrest and sue them,
00:25:31an action that won the approval of the customers.
00:25:34Suddenly, a message from Hyun-woo's sister appeared,
00:25:37prompting Ha-In to rush back to her husband's hometown.
00:25:40She only wanted to help her father-in-law win the village chief election,
00:25:44so she organized a party.
00:25:45While everyone was eating and drinking, she quietly went back to visit his room,
00:25:51happy to find that he still kept her old music player.
00:25:54She recalled her forgettable high school days when she was ostracized by everyone,
00:25:58and how Hyun-woo had appeared like a beacon, brightening her youth.
00:26:02When he heard that his wife had returned to his home, Hyun-woo quickly drove back to the village,
00:26:06but he couldn't find her anywhere and worried for her safety.
00:26:10He alone cycled around the village looking for Ha-In,
00:26:13who was very frightened, not remembering why she was there.
00:26:17In the darkness, Ha-In saw a solitary light,
00:26:20and Hyun-woo appeared just when she needed him most,
00:26:23angry that his wife had left without telling him.
00:26:26Just as he was about to leave,
00:26:28the lights brightly illuminated the area,
00:26:30and Ha-In, soaked from searching for her,
00:26:33revealed the truth about her illness.
00:26:35It caused her to forget why she was there.
00:26:38Hyun-woo, heartbroken, saw her injuries,
00:26:41and ran to give Ha-In the warmest hug.
00:26:43They found a place to shelter from the rain,
00:26:45and Hyun-woo curiously asked why she had come back to his hometown.
00:26:49Ha-In explained that his sister had messaged her about their father possibly losing the election,
00:26:55so she had arranged her work and returned to help.
00:26:57Hyun-woo laughed through tears at this silly reason.
00:27:00Suddenly, a loud call for Ha-In pierced the night.
00:27:04Surprisingly, her husband's family braved the rain to find her.
00:27:07For the first time, she felt the warmth of the family.
00:27:11Everyone was concerned about her health.
00:27:13Noticing her embarrassment, Hyun-woo told the family to go rest,
00:27:17and that he would stay and take care of his wife,
00:27:20making the atmosphere in the room tense.
00:27:22Ha-In mentioned needing to dry her hair,
00:27:24but the hairdryer was too old,
00:27:26so Hyun-woo helped her, gently touching each strand of her hair.
00:27:30Ha-In started to feel her body heat up and shyly mentioned her hair was dry.
00:27:34Hyun-woo listened to her morning story,
00:27:37noticing she was hurt in many places,
00:27:39so he carefully bandaged her.
00:27:41Seeing the cute bandage lifted her spirits,
00:27:43and he told her never to be alone again.
00:27:46Suddenly, Ha-In pointed to her palm,
00:27:49wondering why her lifeline was so short.
00:27:51Hearing this, Hyun-woo became uncomfortable,
00:27:54and loudly stated she had found the best hospital,
00:27:57and they would definitely cure her,
00:27:58so she should never speak of dying again.
00:28:01Ha-In, moved by his emotions,
00:28:03cautiously asked if he could go to the doctor with her.
00:28:07Hyun-woo paused for a few seconds before agreeing,
00:28:10feeling an invisible attraction between them.
00:28:12Hyun-woo slowly moved closer to her,
00:28:15but at the last moment, he ran out,
00:28:17leaving Ha-In alone in the empty room.
00:28:19Hyun-woo didn't understand what he was about to do.
00:28:22Was he about to kiss Ha-In?
00:28:24He thought he probably couldn't go home that night.
00:28:27At the same time, Ha-In was delighted
00:28:29to see Hyun-woo's embarrassed demeanor,
00:28:32thinking he must have had some urgent matter
00:28:34to attend to when he ran out,
00:28:36unaware that he had escaped to a friend's house to drink.
00:28:39Seeing Hyun-woo's distracted appearance,
00:28:41his friend thought his wife had kicked him out.
00:28:44Hyun-woo confessed he couldn't control himself anymore,
00:28:46and if he went home now,
00:28:48something would definitely happen.
00:28:49Ha-In, worried, texted to ask where he was.
00:28:54Hyun-woo, frightened, told her to go to sleep first,
00:28:57but how could she sleep peacefully
00:28:59knowing her husband had fled?
00:29:00In his drunken state, Hyun-woo poured out his heart,
00:29:04admitting he had tried not to like her,
00:29:06yet every time he saw Ha-In smile,
00:29:08his heart would flutter.
00:29:10Ha-In, having gone out to find her husband,
00:29:13accidentally overheard everything and, disappointed,
00:29:16returned home.
00:29:17Everything perhaps started two years ago
00:29:19when Hyun-woo came home to find that his wife
00:29:22had someone clean out the room
00:29:23of their recently deceased child.
00:29:25He angrily asked why she would do such a thing,
00:29:28to which Ha-In indifferently replied,
00:29:30making him feel she was cold.
00:29:32Since then, he decided to move his things
00:29:34into the child's room,
00:29:36and every time he returned
00:29:37and saw the stars on the ceiling,
00:29:39he couldn't help but cry.
00:29:41Hyun-woo didn't know that Ha-In was also suffering.
00:29:44She always blamed herself for the miscarriage,
00:29:46believing she had no right to grieve.
00:29:49The next morning, when Hyun-woo returned home,
00:29:52he was surprised to find her waiting for him.
00:29:54Ha-In was cold towards him
00:29:56and quickly packed up her belongings
00:29:58to return to the company.
00:29:59Before they left,
00:30:01her mother-in-law gave her many gifts,
00:30:03wishing her daughter-in-law
00:30:04would take better care of her health.
00:30:06As the family watched the car disappear,
00:30:09his sister-in-law recalled the day she met Ha-In,
00:30:12thinking she was a gold digger after her brother.
00:30:14She had offered Ha-In money to break up with him.
00:30:18Ha-In, standing her ground,
00:30:20declared she would never leave him.
00:30:21Just then, Hyun-woo appeared
00:30:23and asked his sister what she was doing.
00:30:26The sister claimed she was doing it for his own good,
00:30:28insisting Ha-In wasn't his type.
00:30:31Angrily, Ha-In gripped his hand tightly
00:30:33and coldly asked what type Hyun-woo liked.
00:30:36Naively, the sister recounted
00:30:38how he had once been attracted to a school friend,
00:30:41once again turning the situation against Hyun-woo.
00:30:43Fortunately, he managed to avoid disaster.
00:30:47Hyun-woo admitted he once liked that type of girl,
00:30:50but the person he loves now is Ha-In.
00:30:52He then pulled Ha-In away from the place,
00:30:55and before leaving,
00:30:56she didn't forget to take the money
00:30:57offered by his sister.
00:30:59Returning to the present,
00:31:01the car has arrived home
00:31:02when Ha-In unexpectedly says
00:31:04that she did not wait for him last night.
00:31:06Hyun-woo understands what she means
00:31:08and suggests they go inside first.
00:31:11Despite being angry,
00:31:13Ha-In is concerned about him
00:31:14and notices that his shirt sleeve is wet
00:31:17because he held an umbrella for her.
00:31:19She tells him to hold the umbrella properly.
00:31:22At that moment,
00:31:23Ro-Song appears,
00:31:24holding an umbrella
00:31:25and escorting her into the house,
00:31:27leaving Hyun-woo
00:31:28helplessly watching his wife
00:31:30in the arms of another man,
00:31:32mistaking him for the homeowner
00:31:33if not known better.
00:31:35Hyun-woo wonders why Ro-Song is there,
00:31:37and Ro-Song reveals
00:31:38that his mother-in-law invited him,
00:31:41explaining that his presence
00:31:42would be convenient
00:31:43for an upcoming business plan.
00:31:45Outwardly,
00:31:46Hyun-woo appears indifferent,
00:31:48but internally he is extremely annoyed,
00:31:50worried about whether it would be okay
00:31:52to ask his wife about her past.
00:31:54Ro-Song is indeed a special guest in the house.
00:31:57Both the younger brother
00:31:58and the mother welcome him,
00:32:00with the latter wanting Ro-Song
00:32:01to invest in her son's project.
00:32:03The next day,
00:32:04the younger brother
00:32:05confidently discusses the investment plan,
00:32:08excited about Ro-Song's sponsorship
00:32:10ensuring smooth progress,
00:32:12but Hyun-woo disagrees.
00:32:14He points out the need
00:32:15to assess the land's risk potential
00:32:16as any issues
00:32:17could severely impact the company,
00:32:19which the chairman agrees with,
00:32:21beyond handling business at the company.
00:32:23Hyun-woo also has someone
00:32:25investigate the trap setter
00:32:26in the hunting ground,
00:32:28obtaining a video of the fence vandal
00:32:30through the help of the landlord,
00:32:31but restoring it would take three to four days.
00:32:34Back at the company,
00:32:36Hyun-woo is shocked to see his wife
00:32:38in the arms of a rival,
00:32:39and approaches gently to ask what's wrong,
00:32:42but Ha-In doesn't want to talk to him.
00:32:44Ro-Song also realizes she is facing some issue,
00:32:47yet Ha-In skillfully conceals her illness.
00:32:50The following day,
00:32:52Ha-In visits the doctor
00:32:53who informs her that her white blood cell count
00:32:55is too low,
00:32:57indicating that the treatment
00:32:58isn't very effective.
00:33:00Unable to accept this,
00:33:01Ha-In,
00:33:02who has been fighting to live,
00:33:04is surprised to find her aunt present
00:33:05at the brain tumor department.
00:33:07Her aunt tries to encourage her
00:33:09that she will recover,
00:33:10but Ha-In reveals that only her husband
00:33:12knows about her condition.
00:33:14Despite her toughness,
00:33:16facing a life-threatening issue
00:33:17makes anyone scared,
00:33:18and she decides to go to Germany
00:33:20alone for treatment.
00:33:22When Hyun-woo finds out,
00:33:23she is already on the plane,
00:33:25and he,
00:33:26devastated,
00:33:26turns to alcohol for solace,
00:33:29later reviewing an interview
00:33:30he and his wife had conducted.
00:33:32At that moment,
00:33:34Ha-In had expressed her wish
00:33:35to travel with Hyun-woo,
00:33:37who replayed the video many times,
00:33:39his eyes gradually filling with tears.
00:33:41The next morning,
00:33:42he decided to take the earliest flight,
00:33:45while at the same time,
00:33:46Ha-In was going through numerous treatments
00:33:48that were not yielding good results.
00:33:50She wandered aimlessly through the park,
00:33:53absorbing the scenery
00:33:54and the stories it told,
00:33:55walking until she suddenly collapsed
00:33:57from exhaustion.
00:33:58A loud call startled her,
00:34:00and Hyun-woo slowly appeared before her,
00:34:03tenderly changing her shoes,
00:34:04surprised that he knew where to find her.
00:34:07Hyun-woo just smiled and said he guessed,
00:34:09sharing that he had cried a lot recently,
00:34:11feeling heartache whenever he thought of her.
00:34:14Ha-In felt his genuine affection,
00:34:16and no longer wanted to deny her feelings.
00:34:19Moved by his presence,
00:34:20she admitted that she couldn't find a miracle to live,
00:34:23what she really wanted was just to be with him.
00:34:26They cried and held each other tightly,
00:34:28their relationship improving significantly.
00:34:30Curious, Hyun-woo asked why his wife
00:34:33wanted to eat instant noodles,
00:34:35to which Ha-In responded that she wanted
00:34:36to try everything before she died.
00:34:39She also carefully instructed him
00:34:40to prepare for her funeral,
00:34:42strictly prohibiting those she disliked from attending.
00:34:45And if they spoke ill of her,
00:34:47he must deal with them.
00:34:48This made Hyun-woo unhappy,
00:34:50as he insisted she would recover from her illness.
00:34:53Ha-In said that probably no one would cry at her funeral,
00:34:56but at least she wanted to see him cry.
00:34:58Hyun-woo, saddened, shifted the conversation,
00:35:01and Ha-In mentioned the will she had made
00:35:03before their marriage.
00:35:05She said she would amend it when she returned,
00:35:07but Hyun-woo wanted her to wait
00:35:09until she was fully recovered.
00:35:11The two returned to the hotel,
00:35:13and for the first time a long while,
00:35:15they had the chance to share a room,
00:35:17with an awkward atmosphere enveloping them.
00:35:20Ha-In took the initiative to say
00:35:21she would sleep in the room,
00:35:23and he could sleep wherever he felt like
00:35:25following his heart.
00:35:26Seeing his wife giving him the green light,
00:35:28Hyun-woo quickly followed,
00:35:30eager to sleep in the same room with her,
00:35:32which Ha-In shyly agreed to.
00:35:34Just as he was about to hold her hand,
00:35:36she pulled away,
00:35:37starting to talk about her company,
00:35:39sharing that a friend had recently had an accident,
00:35:42yet her husband was only concerned
00:35:44with the friend's assets.
00:35:45Disgusted by such people,
00:35:47Hyun-woo listened and sweated,
00:35:49feeling the pressure as she praised him
00:35:51for not being like others.
00:35:52Ha-In was touched that Hyun-woo
00:35:54always cared for her when she was ill,
00:35:56and the more she talked,
00:35:57the more awkward Hyun-woo felt,
00:35:59overwhelmed by a sense of guilt.
00:36:01Watching his wife sleep peacefully,
00:36:04Hyun-woo gently held her hand,
00:36:06feeling a sense of peace
00:36:07he hadn't experienced in a long time,
00:36:09as if everything were a beautiful dream.
00:36:12Early the next morning,
00:36:13he went to a church to pray earnestly
00:36:15for good fortune to befall her,
00:36:17then he visited her treatment center
00:36:19to hear the results.
00:36:20The professor reported that her white blood cell count
00:36:23was too low,
00:36:24and that the basic treatment was ineffective.
00:36:26Hyun-woo insisted that the professor
00:36:28should not manipulate the results,
00:36:30since the center was receiving funding
00:36:32from a corporation.
00:36:33Mistaking his visit as a financial claim,
00:36:36the professor was corrected by Hyun-woo,
00:36:38who cared little for such trivial matters.
00:36:40He threatened to sue if his wife was not completely cured,
00:36:44prompting the professor to agree to risk a procedure
00:36:46that would increase her white blood cells,
00:36:48albeit with higher risks.
00:36:50Hyun-woo was overjoyed to receive news
00:36:52that gave her renewed hope for life.
00:36:54The couple enjoyed the remainder of their trip,
00:36:57during which Hyun-woo became jealous
00:36:59when she noticed other women attracted to her husband,
00:37:02bringing up his first love.
00:37:04Hyun-woo could only endure his wife's jabs.
00:37:06Even as a renowned lawyer,
00:37:08he couldn't win an argument against her.
00:37:11The place was full of memories for them,
00:37:13having spent their honeymoon there.
00:37:15And though they visited the famous Love Lock Bridge,
00:37:18they couldn't find their lock
00:37:19due to the abundance of others.
00:37:21Hagen enjoyed the peaceful ambience of the market,
00:37:24and wondered why people had so much free time.
00:37:26Passing a souvenir shop,
00:37:28she commented on how economically savvy the locals were,
00:37:31attracting many customers with mere four-leaf clovers.
00:37:34Deciding to buy one for luck,
00:37:37seeing his wife so happy also gave Hyun-woo peace of mind.
00:37:40Today was another treatment day for Ha-in,
00:37:43who walked out of the room absent-mindedly,
00:37:46worrying Hyun-woo.
00:37:47He thought something serious had happened,
00:37:49but it turned out she was just shocked by her weight gain,
00:37:52a concern he found surprisingly trivial.
00:37:55Ha-in worried that he would always remember
00:37:57her looking unattractive,
00:37:59determined not to let that happen.
00:38:01Her mood had improved,
00:38:02but as she followed a nurse,
00:38:04she suddenly spotted a familiar figure.
00:38:06Ha-in hurriedly chased after the kid,
00:38:08while Hyun-woo became anxious
00:38:10when the nurse reported his wife missing.
00:38:12Hyun-woo rushed outside to look for Ha-in,
00:38:15spotting a crowd gathered at the park,
00:38:17and fearing it involved his wife.
00:38:19Luckily, a gentle hand pulled him back,
00:38:22and it was Ha-in,
00:38:24dazedly stating she was very hungry.
00:38:26Relieved, Hyun-woo embraced her warmly.
00:38:29He asked where she had been,
00:38:31and Ha-in recounted a childhood incident
00:38:33where her brother had died trying to save her from drowning,
00:38:36an event that caused her mother to become cold towards her,
00:38:40leaving Ha-in feeling guilty to this day.
00:38:43Hyun-woo comforted her,
00:38:44suggesting that she might have had a hallucination,
00:38:47and that she should focus on her treatment now.
00:38:49Unbeknownst to Hyun-woo,
00:38:51a storm was brewing back at home.
00:38:53Ro-song had long been conspiring with family members
00:38:56to break into Hyun-woo's room,
00:38:58discovering the location where Hyun-woo was restoring a tape.
00:39:02The trap-setter turned out to be his sister-in-law,
00:39:04and they had destroyed this crucial evidence.
00:39:07Ro-song didn't stop there.
00:39:09He secretly installed a listening device
00:39:11in a painting gifted to the chairman.
00:39:13Not only was the sister-in-law involved,
00:39:16but the chairman's young wife was too,
00:39:18who purposely dropped a chess piece
00:39:20to indicate the listening device hidden under the table.
00:39:22Ro-song managed to have his people check the house,
00:39:25satisfied that he had successfully shifted
00:39:28all blame onto Hyun-woo.
00:39:30Now the family suspected their son-in-law of betrayal,
00:39:33deciding to break into his safe,
00:39:35surprised to find divorce papers inside.
00:39:38Still unaware of these developments,
00:39:40Hyun-woo happily went to buy more four-leaf clovers
00:39:42for Ha-in, who was delighted to see her husband's care.
00:39:46However, her joy turned to despair
00:39:48when she received a message from her mother,
00:39:50showing a photo of the divorce papers
00:39:52stamped with his name.
00:39:53Angry, Ha-in threw his gift
00:39:56and heartbrokenly asked if it was true.
00:39:59She urged him to deny it.
00:40:00But at this point, Hyun-woo could no longer lie to her
00:40:03and admitted that he had prepared the documents.
00:40:07Ha-in, struggling to control her emotions,
00:40:10asked if he had done this on the day
00:40:11she mentioned she was dying.
00:40:13Hyun-woo bowed his head and admitted it,
00:40:16leaving Ha-in devastated by his betrayal,
00:40:18now seeing him as no different from the rest.
00:40:21She felt that all this time he had been deceiving her.
00:40:24Hyun-woo mentioned that he had found the lock on their way here,
00:40:27and seeing his tear-streaked face,
00:40:30Ha-in felt an indescribable mix of emotions,
00:40:33wondering if his feelings were genuine or just a cruel joke.
00:40:36Ha-in silently returned to the hotel to pack her belongings,
00:40:40no longer wanting to see him.
00:40:42Hyun-woo quickly followed her,
00:40:44not wanting her to go alone.
00:40:46Ha-in begged him to let her leave,
00:40:48saying she no longer had the energy to be angry.
00:40:50Hyun-woo asked her to give him a chance to explain,
00:40:53but she refused this proposal.
00:40:55Once again, they drifted apart.
00:40:58Ha-in remembered the times he had treated her well
00:41:00and tears streamed down her face.
00:41:03Having given her all to him,
00:41:05she did not know how to face the truth anymore.
00:41:07Ha-in, her mind hazy, walked into the street,
00:41:11unaware of the oncoming car due to her malignant tumor.
00:41:14Fortunately, Hyun-woo arrived just in time
00:41:17to pull her out of danger.
00:41:18He angrily told her to go back
00:41:20and that he would explain everything.
00:41:23And if she still wanted a divorce afterwards,
00:41:25he would agree.
00:41:26Ha-in looked at him for a long time
00:41:28and begged him never to appear and save her again,
00:41:31pushing his hand away and walking off unconsciously.
00:41:35Ha-in's mood was not improving,
00:41:37which meant that the Research Institute's method was ineffective.
00:41:40The professor told him her frequent running into the street
00:41:43was a bad sign.
00:41:44It was a sign of someone wanting to commit suicide.
00:41:46Hyun-woo understood this was related to him.
00:41:49Just then, a nurse reported that Ha-in wanted to be discharged.
00:41:54Hyun-woo, worried, quickly followed his wife.
00:41:57Ha-in no longer intended to continue fighting.
00:42:00She had decided to give up everything.
00:42:02What he feared most finally happened.
00:42:04Hyun-woo was stunned as he watched her walk away.
00:42:07Suddenly, he ran up to her saying he would be grateful
00:42:10if she agreed to the divorce.
00:42:11Hyun-woo had decided to make her hate him as much as possible.
00:42:15It was the only way for her to keep living.
00:42:18He provoked her with insincere words,
00:42:20knowing her competitive nature.
00:42:22Ha-in would never let him go peacefully.
00:42:24Now in her eyes, he was nothing but a thorn.
00:42:27Ha-in swore to make him pay dearly for challenging her.
00:42:30The next day, they returned to their country.
00:42:33Hyun-woo saw on the news that his sister-in-law's project had been signed.
00:42:37He knew Ro-song was involved in this scheme,
00:42:40aiming to swallow the queen group.
00:42:42They were still unaware of this plot.
00:42:44Now the house was in turmoil over Ha-in's divorce.
00:42:47They suspected Hyun-woo had an affair which led to his betrayal.
00:42:51Ha-in, angered, said she would investigate this herself.
00:42:55She would have the audit team investigate,
00:42:57and if they discovered any dubious income or expenses,
00:43:00she would sue and have Hyun-woo jailed.
00:43:03Meanwhile, Hyun-woo was picked up by his best friend,
00:43:07who was concerned about his safety,
00:43:09regretting the trouble he had caused.
00:43:11Now he did not know what to do with himself.
00:43:13All he could anticipate was Ha-in's wrath,
00:43:16as only this would give her a reason to keep living.
00:43:19Hyun-woo drove back to the mansion where his younger brother had been waiting.
00:43:23He thought Hyun-woo was after the inheritance,
00:43:25but Hyun-woo clarified that he had not planted any listening devices.
00:43:29He was there to meet with the chairman to explain everything
00:43:32and advised his brother to stop the resort construction.
00:43:36If his brother failed again,
00:43:37the villain would get 8.4% of the shares,
00:43:40but his brother ignored this advice, blinded by the potential benefits.
00:43:45Hyun-woo went into the room to meet the chairman,
00:43:47who was furious at him for betraying him.
00:43:50Hyun-woo explained that he had never planted listening devices
00:43:53and had been investigating who caused the company's budget deficit.
00:43:57The investigation into the chairman was someone else's plan,
00:44:00but he had yet to find out who was behind it.
00:44:03Ro-sung, having seen the conversation through a camera,
00:44:06immediately informed his accomplice to flee abroad.
00:44:09That evening, when he returned,
00:44:11Ha-in met him and declared war.
00:44:14She had signed the divorce papers,
00:44:16but the timing of filing them or any further action was up to her.
00:44:20Hyun-woo agreed,
00:44:21and Ha-in said she would hire the best lawyer to sue him,
00:44:24warning him not to think he could escape safely.
00:44:27Hyun-woo grabbed her hand,
00:44:29urging her not to trust Ro-sung,
00:44:31suspecting he was plotting something.
00:44:33Ha-in asked why he said this,
00:44:35and Hyun-woo replied that the tape he had analyzed had disappeared,
00:44:39indicating Ro-sung's interference.
00:44:42She did not care about his explanations.
00:44:44Betrayal was betrayal.
00:44:46The next day, Ha-in dressed elegantly to go to the company.
00:44:50Everyone noticed she was going through a dark period,
00:44:53and her glamorous appearance meant trouble for them.
00:44:55A new employee accidentally spilled tea on the director's documents,
00:44:59but Ha-in did not show any anger,
00:45:02which frightened the staff.
00:45:03The battle between them officially began.
00:45:06Ha-in had the audit team seize Hyun-woo's documents
00:45:08and rejected all his plans,
00:45:10with their personal secretary bearing the brunt of it.
00:45:13The secretary had to work hard to arrange their schedules to avoid any clashes,
00:45:18but a new incident occurred when Ha-in decided to change her route.
00:45:21Not wanting to wait,
00:45:23she headed to the elevator in the adjacent building,
00:45:25where by chance, Hyun-woo's group was also present.
00:45:28A confrontation between the two departments erupted,
00:45:32and despite being a famous lawyer,
00:45:34he could not win against his wife,
00:45:36and Hyun-woo reluctantly let her go first.
00:45:39That afternoon, Ha-in discovered an unusual expense from her husband.
00:45:43The secretary reported that he was setting aside money each month
00:45:46to buy flowers to send to a woman.
00:45:49Ha-in, furious, wanted to know who this woman was,
00:45:53but to her surprise, it turned out to be an employee of the company.
00:45:57Hyun-woo had been sending condolence flowers in her name,
00:46:00as their daughter had just passed away.
00:46:02Ha-in was touched by the genuine emotions displayed,
00:46:05and coincidentally ran into Hyun-woo when leaving.
00:46:08She told him to stop doing things like this,
00:46:11and that his place was to stay there and disappear when she said so.
00:46:15Then she left abruptly.
00:46:16That evening, Ha-in had a dinner appointment with Ro-song,
00:46:20who had sensed her illness and appeared to behave oddly.
00:46:24Ha-in asked him to speak plainly.
00:46:26Ro-song no longer hid his intentions and told her to get a divorce.
00:46:30Ha-in coldly told him not to interfere in her affairs and angrily left,
00:46:34but a headache struck her, making it hard to stand.
00:46:37She struggled to make it home.
00:46:39Meanwhile, Hyun-woo had uncovered the real identity of Ro-song.
00:46:43He was the son of the chairman's younger wife,
00:46:46but had been abandoned at an orphanage when he was young.
00:46:49They were planning to take over the corporation.
00:46:51Hyun-woo hurried home,
00:46:53and was surprised to find Ha-in feeding the cat in the rain.
00:46:56Concerned, he asked where her driver was,
00:46:59but Ha-in said she couldn't remember anything,
00:47:01having forgotten that they had just returned from Germany,
00:47:04or even the incident with the divorce papers.
00:47:07Seeing his wife like this, Hyun-woo was heartbroken,
00:47:10and tears rolled down Ha-in's cheeks as she hugged and comforted him.
00:47:14He reminisced about the time when they were still in love.
00:47:17Ha-in had once booked an aquarium visit for them.
00:47:20Watching the fish swim carefree made him feel at peace,
00:47:23and Hyun-woo, not thinking much of these strange coincidences,
00:47:28gathered all his courage and proposed to her.
00:47:30Ha-in joyfully accepted his sweet proposal,
00:47:33and only then did he realize that his love for her had not changed over the years.
00:47:37On the contrary, Hyun-woo felt increasingly guilty,
00:47:41although he wanted her to forget about the divorce.
00:47:43His conscience would not allow him to continue deceiving her.
00:47:47Ha-in was taken aback when he mentioned they had been to Germany,
00:47:50confused if her treatment had failed.
00:47:53Hyun-woo explained that her body wasn't ready to accept the therapy,
00:47:56worried she might lose all her memory.
00:47:59Ha-in asked what else she had forgotten,
00:48:01and Hyun-woo painfully revealed that she had forgotten about their divorce.
00:48:05Anger began to envelop her.
00:48:06Ha-in couldn't understand what was happening,
00:48:09recalling that she had once promised herself to make him regret that day,
00:48:13and his dislike of her was unacceptable.
00:48:16Disappointed, Ha-in stepped back,
00:48:18suggesting they should stop here,
00:48:20and agreed to divorce him right then.
00:48:22The heavy rain could not hide their tears.
00:48:25The next day, they had an appointment with a lawyer to finalize the proceedings,
00:48:29her friend curious about who his opponent would be.
00:48:32Suddenly, the elevator doors opened,
00:48:34and a dashing man with an overwhelming presence and striking handsomeness entered,
00:48:39stunning her friend as he was the opponent.
00:48:41Surrounded by rumors of being a military man who had served abroad or even a werewolf,
00:48:47the man, named Vincenzo, was a high-ranking advisor for the mafia.
00:48:51Hyun-woo was terrified imagining the scene of Vincenzo pressing a gun to his head,
00:48:56indicating that Ha-in was intent on destroying him,
00:48:59and they were sure to lose this battle.
00:49:02Hyun-woo didn't worry much, even though his friend considered fleeing.
00:49:05He was prepared to face it.
00:49:07They entered the meeting room with heavy hearts,
00:49:09and her lawyer stated they weren't there to negotiate.
00:49:12Vincenzo was there to fulfill his client's wishes,
00:49:15and his arguments were compelling,
00:49:17leaving them unable to object.
00:49:19The pressure from Vincenzo was immense,
00:49:21and no one could resist it.
00:49:23Hyun-woo agreed to the terms,
00:49:24knowing all reasons were mere fabrications.
00:49:27On the way back, Ha-in remembered how Hyun-woo had once said that whenever he was sad,
00:49:32he would sit on a train and watch the sunset,
00:49:35finding peace in the beautiful scenery that helped him forget his sorrows.
00:49:39This time, she too admired that sky,
00:49:41only regretting that he was no longer by her side.
00:49:45Ha-in instructed the driver to take her to the places he often visited.
00:49:48Curious about why he had been running like a madman in school,
00:49:52or why he often ate alone,
00:49:53Ha-in decided to experience everything he did herself,
00:49:57and unexpectedly discovered that Hyun-woo was also at the restaurant eating that day.
00:50:02They sat separated by a wall,
00:50:04and Ha-in overheard everything he said to his best friend.
00:50:08His friend encouraged him now that he was free,
00:50:11and wouldn't have to endure being superfluous at home anymore.
00:50:14But Hyun-woo expressed that he only wanted to be with her.
00:50:18Ha-in was moved by his sincere words,
00:50:20sitting and crying for a long time as all her pent-up emotions broke free.
00:50:25She confided in the restaurant owner that she wanted to live,
00:50:28especially since her husband loved her so deeply.
00:50:31It was late at night before she returned home,
00:50:33where Ro-sang was already waiting at the gate,
00:50:36curious why she hadn't fired Hyun-woo from the company yet.
00:50:39She stated that if Hyun-woo still wanted to work there,
00:50:42she wouldn't interfere since he was an influential figure in the company.
00:50:45Ro-sang was displeased by her dismissal,
00:50:48realizing he could never replace Hyun-woo.
00:50:51Ha-in declared she would never give him a chance,
00:50:54saying her decision to divorce was because she felt guilty towards Hyun-woo.
00:50:58Living in that house was like hell for him.
00:51:01Ro-sang wouldn't leave her alone.
00:51:03He had deliberately followed her from the company
00:51:05when suddenly a supercar zoomed up and blocked him.
00:51:08Hyun-woo coldly stepped out of the car,
00:51:11aware of everything Ro-sang had done,
00:51:13including planting a mole to leak internal information.
00:51:16Hyun-woo confronted him about why he was following her,
00:51:20to which Ro-sang retorted that she was no longer his wife.
00:51:23Hyun-woo threatened that if Ro-sang continued to harass Ha-in,
00:51:27he would make him pay.
00:51:28Meanwhile, the company faced turmoil as the project his sister-in-law invested in encountered licensing issues.
00:51:35This enraged the chairman, who summoned his niece to discuss the matter.
00:51:39Frightened, she ran to seek help from Hyun-woo, who had anticipated this problem.
00:51:44Hyun-woo coldly suggested she go talk to Ro-sang instead,
00:51:48knowing well that his sister-in-law would cling to him as her only lifeline.
00:51:52The next day, Hyun-woo spoke with the Ministry of Defense
00:51:55and proposed a solution to resolve the dispute by constructing a radar tower taller than the hotel.
00:52:01A solution that satisfied everyone,
00:52:04but unfortunately, it led the investors to turn against the company.
00:52:08Ro-sang was behind the rumors that the chairman was under investigation for corruption,
00:52:12fearing they would lose everything, which was precisely what Ro-sang wanted.
00:52:17He met with the chairman to present a historic contract with his fund ready to invest a huge
00:52:22sum in the company. Just as the chairman was about to stamp approval, Hyun-woo burst in.
00:52:27He discovered that the contract contained many risks, but the chairman, pressured by Ro-sang,
00:52:33did not believe him and ordered him out, immediately stripping him of all his authority.
00:52:38The security team wanted him to hand over all the company's assets,
00:52:42just when Hye-in arrived to help, asking if he really intended to let himself be fired.
00:52:48Confidently, Hyun-woo stated that the chairman could not really do anything,
00:52:52while at the same time his aunt was waiting for him at the company's entrance,
00:52:56scolding him for neglecting his niece.
00:52:58Actually, she had already investigated the identities of the parties involved.
00:53:02The chairman's young wife had a son, and she wanted him to join her team,
00:53:06with all the evidence he had gathered. Hyun-woo suspected that Ro-sang was the manipulator
00:53:11behind everything. The next day, the results of a paternity test revealed that the chairman's
00:53:17young wife and Ro-sang were mother and son. Hyun-woo immediately called the chairman to report the
00:53:23results. The chairman was shocked to realize that the woman in front of him had deceived him,
00:53:28but it was too late as he had already been drugged by her. The cunning old fox finally showed her
00:53:33claws, overturning the tables now that she held the power of attorney. As long as the chairman was
00:53:38comatose, she would make all the decisions. The family quickly rushed to the hospital,
00:53:43but were not allowed in, angry that she held the power of attorney. Moreover, the company shares had
00:53:49been bought up overnight by Ro-sang, and the queen group had lost everything. No one knew where their
00:53:55family had gone. People in their hometown were shocked when Hyun-woo returned, but this time not alone.
00:54:00He was with the entire family of his wife. The situation started when he discovered that someone
00:54:06had set a trap for his wife's family. Hyun-woo had preemptively waited for them at the back gate.
00:54:11As soon as the reporter started their cameras, Hyun-woo quickly drove his family to escape,
00:54:17now without a penny to their names, all assets and status frozen. The only person Ha-nin could rely
00:54:23on was her ex-husband. Surprisingly, he was risking everything to help her family, especially since they had
00:54:29always treated him poorly. Hyun-woo suggested that the entire family should move back to the
00:54:34countryside where they wouldn't have to worry about being discovered by reporters. His in-laws were
00:54:38very welcoming to his wife visiting, but due to her high-maintenance personality, her mother did not
00:54:44want to stay there. Just a few days ago, she had met with Hyun-woo's mother to discuss divorcing the two
00:54:50of them. Yet now they were forced to live under the same roof. While everyone was preparing dinner,
00:54:55Hyun-woo took his wife for a walk, during which she expressed her gratitude for his help and mentioned
00:55:01that she and her family would look for another place to stay the next day. However, Hyun-woo interrupted
00:55:06her, asking her to stay because he would not feel comfortable if she were elsewhere. Ha-in did not
00:55:12understand why he was being so kind to her regardless of whatever happened to her or her family,
00:55:17which shouldn't concern him. Hyun-woo sincerely hoped she would understand and that she could leave once
00:55:23her health improved, and the family gathered together for a warm meal. Everyone was enjoying
00:55:28their meal when the youngest brother-in-law acted out, bluntly throwing his food out of his bowl,
00:55:34shocking everyone. Furthermore, when asking for a drink, he demanded imported water, leaving everyone
00:55:40stunned by his unreasonable request. Ha-in, sitting next to him, could not hold back any longer and
00:55:46angrily hit her unruly brother-in-law, shocking the family by her fierce behavior. Hyun-woo, sitting
00:55:53beside them, was worried about misunderstandings, so he clarified that she hadn't hit him.
00:55:58After dinner, he arranged sleeping accommodations for his wife's family. Since it was the countryside,
00:56:04there were no bathtubs available, and even the towels were hand-me-downs, causing the brother-in-law
00:56:09to laugh bitterly, thinking it was a joke. But it was indeed the truth. He had to live there for the
00:56:15foreseeable future, deeply resenting Roe Song for the division his actions had caused in his family.
00:56:21His wife and infant child had fled abroad, and he had nothing left to lose. After arranging the
00:56:27sleeping quarters, Hyun-woo texted his wife, who was relaxing with an old music player. She responded
00:56:34coldly to his message. The two of them had a lot to say but refrained from expressing too much emotion
00:56:39as they had just divorced. Messages were written and then deleted. Suddenly, Ha-in mentioned the music
00:56:46player she found in the cupboard, to which Hyun-woo explained that he had found it during his high
00:56:51school years. Ha-in was surprised to find that the music player was the one she had lost before,
00:56:56which was also when she first met Hyun-woo. He was the one who had kindly bandaged her wounds.
00:57:02Ha-in was delighted by this revelation, wondering if Hyun-woo was meant for her. She was curious about how
00:57:08he felt knowing he had the owner's music player. Therefore, she texted him teasingly,
00:57:13saying the girl must have been very beautiful, prompting Hyun-woo to quickly come over and explain
00:57:19to his wife, worried she might misunderstand that he was having an affair. Hyun-woo said he didn't
00:57:24remember the past details. He just kept the player, waiting for its owner to show up, which Ha-in
00:57:30playfully teased him about. Seeing her ex-husband flustered like that made Ha-in feel a bit joyful
00:57:36inside. The next morning, while the family was still asleep, Hyun-woo woke up early to prepare for work.
00:57:42Before leaving the house, he carefully entered his wife's room wanting to pull back the curtains and
00:57:47admire her beautiful face. For him, happiness was as simple as that. Finally, Ha-in woke up and went
00:57:54downstairs intending to help her mother-in-law in the kitchen, although she had never really engaged in
00:58:00such activities before. Her mother-in-law, seeing her daughter-in-law's filial piety, took great care in
00:58:06teaching her. Ha-in was amazed by her mother-in-law's excellent chopping skills, commenting that her level
00:58:12deserved a five-star chef. Her mother-in-law was pleased with the compliment and casually showed
00:58:17Ha-in how to prepare several more dishes. Putting aside the piece at home, Hyun-woo went alone to the
00:58:23company to confront his enemy. Ro-song was now the chairman of Queen Corporation, having taken over
00:58:29all the shares and reorganized the personnel, yet he still hadn't found the chairman's secret funds.
00:58:35Just then, Hyun-woo entered Ro-song's office, wanting to have a private word with him,
00:58:40questioning why he would agree to work for someone like him. Hyun-woo said he had nothing left and
00:58:46wanted to work there until he found a new job. Ro-song curiously asked where she was,
00:58:51but Hyun-woo would never disclose his wife's location to someone like him.
00:58:56Externally, Hyun-woo worked in the company's legal department, but internally, he was secretly
00:59:01investigating the misdeeds of the new chairman. Hyun-woo had approached former traders and had also
00:59:07encrypted a video recording from a hunting area. The wife of Ha-in's brother-in-law was the actual
00:59:12perpetrator. She had left the country with their child. The most hurt person was probably the
00:59:17brother-in-law. He had just received a letter and learned the whole truth that his beloved son was
00:59:23not his biological child. And from the beginning to the end, she had only used him. Ha-in wanted to
00:59:29comfort her knave brother-in-law, but didn't know what to do and placed all her hopes on her husband.
00:59:35At that time, he was meeting with protesters in front of the company. As the legal director,
00:59:40he was constantly criticized by the crowd and had rotten eggs thrown at him. But Hyun-woo endured it
00:59:46as he wanted to gather as much evidence as possible. The sky had darkened and high and was worried
00:59:52because it was dinner time and he still hadn't returned. She called his former assistant to check
00:59:57on the situation. Suddenly, the lights flickered off and she plunged into total darkness. When she
01:00:04regained consciousness, she found herself at her husband's house. Everyone was worried when she
01:00:09fainted at the gate. Ha-in knew her illness had recurred but chose not to tell anyone,
01:00:14not wanting to worry her parents. When Hyun-woo heard that his wife had fainted, he hurried back home
01:00:20and led her to the room to rest. Hyun-woo suggested they visit a doctor the next day. But what worried
01:00:26Ha-in was what he might be plotting. The assistant had mentioned seeing him getting pelted with eggs,
01:00:31and he was also gathering statements from the protesters. Hyun-woo knew he couldn't keep
01:00:36secrets from his wife any longer and explained that he had discovered Ro-song had defrauded investors.
01:00:42Ro-song had promised five-fold returns but eventually reneged on the deal. And Hyun-woo had also
01:00:48identified the identity of the land broker. He knew the man hadn't left Korea yet, so he was actively
01:00:54pursuing him. Ha-in was moved by what he was doing in this situation and didn't want to sit idly by.
01:01:00She decided to conclusively treat her illness. The next day, she went to the hospital alone for an
01:01:06injection. But unexpectedly, Hyun-woo appeared and whisked her away. He revealed that Ro-song had also
01:01:13found out about her illness, quickly driving her home before returning to the company.
01:01:18The situation escalated when Hyun-woo discovered someone was following him. The person had tracked
01:01:23him from his workplace, intentionally pulling over to the side. Hyun-woo suddenly changed direction,
01:01:28leading to a tense high-speed chase. It seemed as though he had shaken them off, but it wasn't to
01:01:34be. Ro-song's thug had set up a roadblock ahead. Hyun-woo calmly stepped out of the car to face the real
01:01:41estate broker, who demanded that he withdraw his lawsuit. Hyun-woo refused. Realizing that words were
01:01:47no longer effective, the broker signaled his subordinates to get out of the car. Alone, Hyun-woo confronted the
01:01:54gang of thugs who were unaware that he had previously been an elite special forces soldier. Hyun-woo easily
01:02:00dealt with the henchmen, delivering a thorough beating. At the same time, Ha-in was startled to
01:02:05see a familiar figure standing at the gate. She was surprised that Ro-song had found her location.
01:02:11He told her he knew she wouldn't live much longer, which is why he came to threaten her. Ha-in thought he
01:02:17must be insane. Ro-song continued with his proposal, wanting her to return as the company's director.
01:02:23He gave her two days to comply, or else he would disclose her medical condition to her family.
01:02:29Suddenly, a loud scream calling his name came from his naive and angry younger brother upon seeing the
01:02:35man who ruined his family's happiness. However, what the younger brother really cared about was the
01:02:40well-being of his wife and children, and he was ready to forsake his pride to ask the man.
01:02:45But the man coldly ignored him and walked away, leaving him standing there. Ha-in forbade him
01:02:51from discussing this matter with her ex-husband. But eventually, Hyun-woo returned and seeing him
01:02:57injured like that made Ha-in very worried. She quickly pulled him into a room to care for him,
01:03:03angrily asking who dared to hit him before he could even explain. She had already stripped him of his
01:03:08clothes. Despite being married for many years, he was still embarrassed. Ha-in felt pain seeing a large
01:03:14bruise on his back, realizing her husband had just been in a fight. Seeing her eyes almost tear up,
01:03:20Hyun-woo let her apply medicine to his wounds. He mentioned that he had just encountered a broker,
01:03:26proudly boasting about handling three people by himself, which Ha-in angrily remarked was nothing
01:03:31to be proud of. She insisted that he should have fled upon seeing outnumbered, and before he could
01:03:36explain, she told him to be quiet, wanting him to promise never to get hurt again. Hyun-woo agreed with his wife,
01:03:43and the next morning, the whole family was surprised to see both children injured. Hyun-woo downplayed it,
01:03:50saying he just had a minor fall. With everyone present, his father began to proudly discuss
01:03:55his son's martial arts skills, having won every competition he participated in, leaving his sister-in-law
01:04:01amazed by how incredible her brother-in-law was. After breakfast, his ex-wife personally saw him off to
01:04:08work. Ha-in wanted to apply ointment to his wounds herself, and Hyun-woo was happy that his wife cared
01:04:13so much for him. He decided to go to work 30 minutes late to stay with her, and they shared various
01:04:19incidents from the past, but no matter what happened, he pledged to always be by her side.
01:04:24Just as Hyun-woo arrived at the office, he received shocking news that he had been transferred to another
01:04:30location, a long-abandoned shabby room. Curiously, the man named Ro-song entered and spoke to him,
01:04:37admitting he had fabricated evidence of Hyun-woo abusing his power, and even mentioned he had met
01:04:42Ha-in the day before. Hyun-woo was not to be outdone, revealing he had captured the broker,
01:04:48and no longer hiding their true intentions. A big fight was imminent. Hyun-woo then met with a matchmaker,
01:04:54holding evidence of her tax evasion, and threatened to report her if she did not cooperate.
01:05:00At that moment, the aunt by marriage appeared and threatened the woman to obediently follow her
01:05:05son-in-law's instructions, as the urgent matter now was to find the hospital where the chairman was
01:05:10being treated. Due to discord with his mother, Ro-song had betrayed her, and they had gradually
01:05:16pinpointed the location where the chairman might be, which was a large hospital in the north of the
01:05:21city. The initial plan was successful. Ha-in, who was now in the countryside, had contacted a close
01:05:27assistant, who couldn't understand why she chose to stay at her ex-husband's house. However, Ha-in
01:05:33explained that it was very good there, especially because of her mother-in-law. The assistant wondered
01:05:39why Hyun-woo still went to work after being humiliated like that. Ha-in, unaware of this, was extremely angry,
01:05:47and called to confront the chairman, who said that this was the result of her refusal to come back,
01:05:52and that he wouldn't stop there. That evening, returning from work, Hyun-woo arranged to meet
01:05:57his wife outside to talk. He wanted to know what Ro-song had said to her. Ha-in honestly disclosed
01:06:04that he wanted her to return to work, and even wanted her back home. Hearing this, Hyun-woo lost his
01:06:10composure, not knowing what this man was planning with his wife. Ha-in was just as angry. She did not
01:06:16want him to risk himself anymore, as he had already endured too much. Hyun-woo couldn't understand what
01:06:22she was saying. Ha-in was indeed very cold, stating she would find her own way. The next day, the mother-in-law
01:06:29accidentally overheard her daughter-in-law's secret. She was shocked to learn she had a brain tumor.
01:06:34The mother-in-law, not believing her ears, quickly woke her son up. Hyun-woo sorrowfully shared everything
01:06:40with his mother, and at the same time, he wanted her to help take care of her, as Ha-in didn't have
01:06:46much time left. The mother agreed to keep her daughter-in-law's secret. Today, she had prepared
01:06:52many delicious dishes for her to nourish her body. Although not her biological mother, she cared for
01:06:57her as her own. When she saw Ha-in misunderstood by her biological mother, she drove a tractor to rescue
01:07:03her, knowing she wanted to return to the company to handle everything. It had been a long time since the
01:07:09employees saw the director return, and everyone was abuzz with this development. Hyun-woo was also
01:07:15surprised when his wife came there. It turned out Ha-in was preparing for the company's press conference,
01:07:20an idea proposed by Ro-song. Hyun-woo wanted to stop her, but it was too late. It was her will,
01:07:27and he had no right to intervene. Hyun-woo watched as his rival walked away with his wife. The press
01:07:33conference was attended by many people and was broadcast live. Hyun-woo could only stand and watch his
01:07:39wife speak. Ro-song wanted to whitewash all the dirty deeds he had done, and thus Ha-in was the
01:07:45most effective pawn for him. However, he did not expect Ha-in to dare to expose all his nefarious
01:07:51deeds. She also coldly declared that she only had a few months left to live, stating that everything
01:07:57she did was to protect her husband. Reporters immediately gathered around to capture this sensational
01:08:02news, with all eyes turning to her. Hyun-woo looked on, overwhelmed with emotion, and unable to speak.
