She had a child.
While she was living like a madwoman and running for her life, she gave birth.
Five years after they separated, they met again. The man who had once loved her with unwavering tenderness now stood before her, his face etched with fury.
“Go on. Make your excuse. I’ll hear it — just once.”
Memories of her desperate escape flood her, when she risked everything to protect Da-hyun. Swallowing the fear that was rising in her throat, she forced herself to speak calmly.
“As you can see, I met someone else, and I’ve been doing well. I even had a child.”
There is no hesitation in her voice. His lips twist coldly.
“I wonder what kind of b*stard the kid’s father is.”
Her composure falters for a moment, and he notices. His dark eyes sharpen.
“What? Is it mine?”
Her heart plummets.
She cannot let him see that. Not the fear. Not the truth. Not the feelings she buried the day she disappeared. He has always been the kind of man who could read her emotions with a single glance.
“That’s impossible. You’ve already investigated me. You know how old Dahyeon is.”
She quickly deflects, gathering herself.
“I hope your curiosity is satisfied now. Please leave.”
But before she can walk away, he steps in and seizes her slender wrist.
“Why are you doing this?”
“Don’t cover it up with pathetic lies. Bring me a better excuse.”
His voice drops low, vibrating like a warning against her ear.
“Why did you run? Why did you suddenly vanish? Why have you been hiding all these years? You’re going to tell me everything. Not a single detail left out.”
