It had only been a few months since my regression. I’d been digging around relentlessly, and eventually, I found something. I didn’t let it sit. Instead, I used my lunch break to meet my biological father. —The intern? Heard he’s the child of a mistress. —Really? —For real? —Yeah. —I heard that too. —Wow. And he still works here? That’s bold. He must know himself. —He doesn’t resemble the Director at all. —So the Director raised a mistress’s child all…-

“How about you, Director?” “Me? Of course I was summoned by my elder brother. Drank too much, and now I’ve got heartburn,” Baek Daehan replied, rubbing his stomach with a cheeky grin. “What are you going to do?” “Report him, obviously. Why? Were you worried I’d follow my brother’s orders?” “Yes.” Baek Mugyeong answered honestly. If Baek Yeongseop had made a move, Baek Jaehan wouldn’t be staying quiet either. It was only natural for him to pressure someone of Baek…-

Baek Yeongseop, annoyed by the hassle, insisted on meeting that night, but Baek Mugyeong firmly refused. In the end, they agreed to meet for lunch the next day and ended the call. When he glanced down at the phone’s glowing screen and saw how long the call had lasted, Baek Mugyeong frowned. He knew the future, at least for the next two years. He especially remembered details about the U.S. economy, and in just two months, he had already made an enormous amount of money. But gold alone couldn’t…-

As soon as I spat out that curse, Baek Mugyeong looked taken aback. Not that I cared, I kept going. “And I wasn’t talking about you either, Baek Mugyeong. I mean, it’s fine to tell me to be careful, but why say you’ll introduce me to an alpha? I’m not a saint, but I do have a conscience, you know. I’m not going to cheat, so just keep that in mind!” All the frustration I’d kept bottled up came bursting out. By the end, my voice was even trembling. Still, letting it all out made me…-

I didn’t have years of experience in the adult world, but I’d seen enough to know all kinds of things happened. Love triangles among married people were the bare minimum, sometimes it went as far as squares or even pentagons. I’d witnessed people accusing each other of sleeping with this guy or that woman and then getting into screaming fights. Once, I even saw two of them grabbing each other’s hair and rolling on the floor. According to my values, cheating after marriage was…-

The reason my biological father’s bullshit sounded so convincing was because he didn’t just explode in anger, he spoke slowly and deliberately, as if explaining something reasonable. Before the regression, I used to get tense, thinking I’d really made a mistake. But now, I just let it wash over me. Ridiculous as it was, I actually felt a little relieved to realize he hadn’t changed one bit from before. “When are you getting discharged?” “They said I need a few days of rest, so…-

“Then that’s fine. But no weirdos, okay? Someone handsome and decent. Just… just imagine you’re setting him up on a blind date with a close friend. Or a younger brother. Or if not that, then the son of a business client.” I laid out a long list of conditions, just in case Baek Mugyeong tried to set Jaeha up with some sketchy alpha. In a world full of underhanded, despicable people, Baek Mugyeong was at least a relatively decent human being. You could tell just from how he had apologized…-

At Choi Jaeha’s words, I sat up from the bed. Since it was a VIP hospital room, there was a sofa area where we could sit and talk. So we peeled and ate hallabongs from the fruit basket as we chatted. I made up a story about hurting my head after missing a step on the stairs at Baek Jinseok’s mansion. I said it was a mild concussion and I’d be hospitalized for a few days. Jaeha scolded me, saying that falling so easily meant my lower body was weak and that I should exercise more. I didn’t like…-

“Aside from the throbbing in my head, nothing hurts. By the way… could you tell me what happened yesterday? It’s okay if it’s a secret.” I hadn’t intended to pry, but as I spoke honestly, curiosity suddenly crept in. I looked at Baek Mugyeong and asked cautiously. In chaebol families, internal matters were usually kept under wraps. It had only been a little over a month since I married Baek Mugyeong, still enough for me to be considered an outsider. That’s why I added the disclaimer…-

They looked at me, each showing some degree of dismay. I was essentially being held hostage. “Don’t come any closer!” The man choking me barked furiously. “I’ll kill him if you do!” The pressure on my neck intensified. It usually took time to choke someone to death, but this man was a professional, a bodyguard. There were faster methods, like a snap of the neck. The bodyguards surrounding us hesitated, clearly aware of this. I was just as thrown off. I couldn’t understand how…-
