Chapter 16.

At Hotel Bon Voyage

Today is Handong's wedding day, she dated a guy in the company and decided to get married. Everyone at KBR is very happy because in the working environment there is a happy couple.

Handong held a wedding at a luxury hotel and invited a large number of friends and acquaintances to attend. Siyeon as Handong's boss will of course be present. She drove herself to the wedding alone while everyone else was traveling in pairs.

Siyeon learned to drive and got her license, it all started 2 months ago. The reason she did it was because no one else drove her to work. She also did not expect that she would have such a hard day going to the driving school and taking the time to take the driving test.

After SuA's departure, Siyeon couldn't let anyone else drive her anymore, she decided to drive herself and now she commutes by herself in a black company car.

It's been 2 months since that day.....

SuA left a letter, next to it was her bank card, next to it was a wedding ring, then a car key. On paper, the two are still married to each other, no one has filed for divorce, of course Siyeon is still SuA's wife legally.

But in reality, Siyeon is no longer SuA's. SuA rejected her, disappearing from her without warning.

It took a week for her to return to normal activities. In the early days, Siyeon buried herself in alcohol and cigarettes, stimulants that could help her feel better. This shock was too heavy for her, causing her to collapse, she had never felt that her life was so difficult.

Harder than childhood when there was no money to buy something to eat….

Their room was now haunted by a familiar scent, the smell of cigarette butts. Siyeon couldn't stop smoking, she smoked two cigarettes a day, now two packs of cigarettes in a day

Jihyo was the first to discover her uncontrollable agony when she stubbornly refused to come down to eat. Jihyo had entered the room herself and witnessed how pitiful Siyeon was.

"Jihyo….she doesn't believe me" - Siyeon buried her face in Jihyo's shoulder, crying non-stop.

“Ms. Lee….do your best….I believe in you” – Jihyo was sad and didn't know what to do, she could only rub Siyeon's back repeatedly to calm the other person's crying.

"Do you believe me?"

"Yes, you must really love Kim Bora to come to this point, I'm sorry I misunderstood you"

Siyeon has spent a week struggling like dying. Breakfast is alcohol, lunch is tobacco, dinner is only a piece of rice, a few stalks of vegetables, can't chew meat, go to bed very early but can't fall asleep right away, always take a nap around 4am, then wake up when the sun comes up.

She neglected her work at the company for a whole week, she told Handong and Dami that she couldn't go to work, she was too weak. Handong knew why, so she replaced Siyeon to run the company temporarily.

Until Siyeon calmed down a bit, she went back to work and started taking driving lessons. She carefully picked up the phone and called SuA.

But could not be contacted, the operator said "the number you just dialed is incorrect"

That is, SuA changed her phone number.

Siyeon called Gahyeon and asked her to find SuA, but Gahyeon refused, she said.

"SuA has twice wanted to escape from you, stop doing things that don't work anymore"

“……………………..”

“I'm sorry, director Lee, I can't do what you want, you know that you and SuA won't have a good ending, right? Please let her go"

Siyeon smashed her phone face down on the pillow, she was like crazy because everyone prevented her from coming to SuA.

She had thousands of questions in her mind, what was the reason she had to let go of SuA.

Because she wants to take advantage of SuA? Because SuA hates her?

No, the above two are completely wrong. She loves Kim SuA like dying, and Kim SuA also loves her very much, but is being controlled by the surrounding environment. SuA doesn't see Siyeon’s true feelings because of the influence of people.

She felt it was a mistake to let SuA meet the people in the past who pushed SuA away from her. She regrets it every day for this.

In her thoughts, a very beautiful figure appeared in her eyes, Siyeon sat up straight, about 20 feet away from her, was Kim SuA.

Siyeon arrived at the wedding and hid in the corner, not wanting to attract anyone's attention. If someone passed by and saw her they would bow, she said hello back to them, no longer conversation.

Siyeon came to bless Handong but her mood was not suitable for crowded places, so she had to sit in a corner like that.

She felt like crying when she saw SuA, it seems Handong invited SuA here. So Handong knows how to contact SuA?

Anger began to grow, Siyeon narrowed her eyes, Handong must have been hiding something from her. She feels betrayed, why can't she contact SuA but Handong can? She plans to deal with Handong later, the first thing she needs to do is talk to SuA.

She missed SuA dearly, she urgently needed to talk to SuA to clear up every misunderstandings.

- Bora...

SuA turned around when she heard a familiar voice, the one who called her by this old name was only Lee Siyeon and no one else.

She also predicted that Siyeon would approach her again. When she came to this wedding she knew Siyeon would be here.

Her job is to calmly face Siyeon….

- Hello, Sing, long time no see - SuA smiled lightly.

Siyeon felt tense, SuA called her by her nickname, not the "director Lee" or “Ms.Lee” that everyone was calling her here. It's been 2 months they haven't seen each other and she feels it's very long, she gnaws every day because of the pain of losing SuA. The corners of her eyes were red, and she wanted to cry because of this terrible situation.

- I… can we talk for a bit?

- Yes, you say.

- Go out on the balcony - Siyeon grabbed SuA's hand and pulled SuA, about to go to a quieter place, but SuA pulled her back.

- No, you can say it here.

Siyeon still clutching SuA's hand, she pursed her lips thinking about how to tame the stubborn person opposite. It's so noisy around here, how can they talk...

Two hands are holding each other, one hand has a wedding ring, the other is not.

Siyeon has never wanted to take off their wedding rings, even though she is going through a painful period in this marriage.

She knew she was really stubborn.

- Bora….don't resist me, we can't talk about it here.

- What do you want to talk about?

- Do you want to force me to death? – Siyeon raised her voice, her last words were heard by about 3 people around. They were glancing at SuA and Siyeon.

SuA pauses, if her refusal continues here, she’s afraid Siyeon will mess up Handong's wedding. She had to let go of Siyeon's hand and automatically walked towards the balcony, where no one was standing.

Two people standing opposite each other, the scene is very quiet. The trees and surroundings were holding their breath waiting for the next scene. Through a door is the space inside which is very noisy because the wedding ceremony is about to start.

SuA is wearing a gorgeous black glitter dress, Siyeon is also wearing a similar fabric blue dress with a white choker. If the two stand next to each other, it is easy to see that this is a couple.

The truth is it's just a coincidence, SuA and Siyeon are not a couple.

It's better to be a couple once.

- Tell me – SuA calmly spoke.

- I think you know what I mean. Why did you disappear from me like that, can't you see that I really love you? - Siyeon said indignantly.

- Yeah, I can’t see.

Siyeon clenched her fists tightly, her long pointed nails digging into her palm, wanting to draw blood. Her eyes were red, even though she was wearing a lot of makeup.

- Do you think I need your money? if I didn’t love you, why did I pull you back to me? If I didn't love you, I would have left you alone and let you live a new life, not telling you about the past.

- If you had real feelings for me, you would have had it since we met, not after my accident, Sing - said SuA softly.

The two's attitudes are opposite, Siyeon seems to want to burst into a storm and SuA is like a calm lake.

- Maybe at that time I had a crush on you, but I wasn't smart enough to realize it, until you had an accident and wasn't with me anymore. I had to go through the months without you, so I gradually realized. Bora, can we stop arguing, everything is fine, our life is very peaceful and happy, why are you acting like this?

- Don't talk anymore - SuA sighed, about to step inside.

- Stop, we're not done talking yet - Siyeon grabbed the other's elbow.

- What more do you want to say?

- Tell me, what do I have to do to make you believe me?

- Give her back all of her possessions - said a voice from somewhere.

Siyeon tilted her head, it was Kim Yoohyeon, her excellent employee and former assistant of SuA.

- If you're confident that you didn't come to SuA for money, then give her back all of her assets. KBR company, car, villa, total savings at Rabbitbank, please return it all to her – Yoohyeon slowly walked towards the couple.

She is no longer an official employee of KBR, but she has a close relationship with the staff. Yoohyeon and Handong are not too close, but after hearing that Handong invited SuA to the wedding, Yooyeon quickly showed up because she wanted SuA's presence in her eyes.

By helping Siyeon pull SuA back to KBR, Yoohyeon found out where Siyeon's total money after marriage was. Siyeon has put everything into Rabbitbank and all transactions are known only to her and the bank.

Yoohyeon watched SuA constantly, so she saw the conversation between Siyeon and SuA, she stood in the corner listening to the other two, then couldn't stand it anymore and spoke up.

- Whoa, when you heard the part about having to pay back the property, you were hesitant, right? I thought you loved Kim SuA very much – Yoohyeon said excitedly when she saw Siyeon's silence.

Siyeon was extremely miserable in her heart, her brain deduced her future life scenario when she gave back all her assets to SuA. If SuA ignored her like in the past two months, her life would be over, both losing the person she loved and losing all her assets.

She returned to the starting point before meeting SuA.

Her life was too difficult, even if she died, she would never want to go back to that time. After meeting SuA, her life changed dramatically, she is always grateful for that.

Now she has to return to her original position to gain SuA's trust. Will SuA believe her after she does?

Siyeon's heart was beating so hard because of the tension, she didn't dare to look directly at anyone.

It all ended with her automatically leaving that stuffy space, driving home without attending Handong's wedding to the end, and having no answer to Yoohyeon's question.

It is so awful.

SuA looked at Siyeon's departing figure and was heartbroken. She knows that Yoohyeon is talking in a way that is forcing Siyeon. Siyeon used to have a very difficult childhood, now she can't bear to make Siyeon suffer like this.

She never regretted or got angry when she learned that Siyeon took advantage of her to get a lot of money. She was only disappointed when she believed in the fact that Siyeon had no feelings for her, Siyeon couldn't like women, Siyeon had dated a lot of men.

When she thought about it, a barrier appeared inside her, preventing her heart from fluttering for Siyeon again. If Siyeon's old love was a girl, she would be less bothered. She couldn't stop herself from thinking about the scene where Siyeon and a certain guy were dating.

Was she too stupid to keep thinking about Siyeon’s past……?

2 weeks later….

SuA received a call from an unknown number.

"Hello Kim Bora, I'm Park Chanyeol, do you remember me?"

- ………………You are….?

"Sorry, I forgot you had a serious accident, I'm attorney Park, who handles your inheritance"

- …………Oh….

“Siyeon gave me your phone number. I called you to let you know the news that Siyeon has delegated all assets to you, including shares of KBR, the position of director of KBR, a suburban mansion on Scream Road, and a savings account worth 500 million won at Rabbitbank.”

- What?

“I need to meet you to hand over something and sign some papers, where and when can we meet?”

---

SuA took a taxi to the villa, she panicked when she heard Siyeon's decision.

Siyeon listened to Yoohyeon's joking words, then let go of all possessions for real.

Where is she going to live in the future, how is she going to live, what is she going to do?

SuA is confident that even if she loses all her possessions, she can still stand up. She is currently working as a salesman in a business center selling beauty care products, the job is quite stable, the place she rents is also good, fully equipped.

Her life is peaceful and without any problems.

As for Siyeon, maybe not. She worries about Siyeon’s life, what if someone in the other society harms Siyeon…..

It's funny, she was the one who left Siyeon, but now she fears Siyeon has no one to protect.

Perhaps when Siyeon stays at the villa, working at KBR, which is the property she created, she will feel more secure. She is not by Siyeon’s side but still feels secure. Beside Siyeon there will be many people who can take care of her.

But now that Siyeon was away from things related to SuA, SuA wasn't reassured at all.

Suddenly her assets increased many times, she may have to return to KBR to work and run the company.

The yellow taxi stopped rolling in front of the large beautiful house, SuA got out and went straight into the house. The password of the mansion was always in her mind, she couldn't forget it even if she wanted to.

The house was dark with no one in it, terrifyingly empty. SuA went straight to the two's bedroom, checking the wardrobe and items.

It's nothing, Siyeon doesn't live here anymore.

SuA picked up the phone and called Siyeon.

"Hello"

- Sing, why did you do that?

"That's what you want, isn't it?"

- I never said that you have to delegate all assets to me, you go back to the villa to live in. If you’re not here, where can you be, who will take care of you?

“That's ridiculous, are you worried about me? you cut off all contact with me, only surreptitiously connected with Handong, and then I had to work hard to get Handong to give out your new phone number to handle the work."

- I care about you so I called, I'm at home now. Go back please.

“I went to talk to Seungyeon and Yoohyeon to find out why you decided to leave me.”

- …………………….

"Turns out you never believed me, you lose your memory, then we've been dating for more than 2 months, which means you didn't believe me during that time."

- …………………….

“What you believe is that I am someone who can only love men and love money, is that correct?”

- ……………………..

"Okay, I'll be what you believe in, now there's a guy beside me"

- What?
