Chapter 13

Rising Restaurant

Siyeon looked blankly at the plate on the table. Dami took her to a quite luxurious restaurant, each meal here cost up to 50,000 won

It's funny, she comes from a billionaire family, luxury meals are normal for her, but she is touched when Dami takes her to a place like this, takes care of her, peels each clam, the snail gave it to her to eat

Today's meal theme is seafood

Dami is younger than her, shorter than her, but all Dami’s actions are very mature. Dami always lets Siyeon be the one to go first, always opens the door for Siyeon to get out of the car or go inside the house, always puts her hand on Siyeon’s waist to hold Siyeon when in public.

The actions between two people gradually resemble those of a couple in love

The two haven't said anything officially about it, but Siyeon is implicitly confirming this relationship.

She feels comfortable when Dami is by her side.

When Bora returns to Korea, Siyeon will talk, that the two cannot continue anymore.

She wants to break up with Kim Bora.

The images in that video made her very painful. She needed to do something to end this pain.

Her stomach is showing signs of protruding. It's been a long time since she went home to visit  parents Lee, even though she lives in a place just one street away from them. When she went to work at the Marriot Hotel, she didn't meet her family. She only goes to work for 1 to 2 hours, checks the hotel situation and deals with work, then she goes Bora’s home to rest.

Dami came to Bora's house several times to pick Siyeon up, and she had no idea that the house belonged to Siyeon’s wife. Dami comes when the maid is not there, so Bora cannot know Dami's existence.

Siyeon didn't dare mention the name Kim Bora when she was with Dami.

Sooner or later she will have to talk about her pregnancy with her parents, which will make them mad.

Then she will become a single mother, annul her marriage to Seonghwa, disappointing her parents, while they still think she is with Seonghwa and happy.

When she left home, they thought she and Seonghwa wanted to live together before marriage

She didn't expect things to get this bad. Two months ago, she was extremely happy when she imagined the prospect of starting a family with Bora

- How are you? Tired? - Dami is worried

- Nothing

- Or is this dish not delicious? I'll change it to something else

- No need, I'm fine

Dami looked thoughtfully at Siyeon, who was looking down

Her mouth curved into a smile

Incheon Airport

SuA returned home after 2 months of hard work. For the past 2 years, she has always worked like that, but her spirit is not as empty as the past 2 months

Siyeon's pregnancy made her yearn to see Siyeon every day. She caused this pregnancy herself.

Siyeon suddenly came to see SuA a while ago, making SuA very happy. The two had sweet moments for two evenings, then Siyeon had work and had to return to Korea early

SuA thought that she would only be away from Siyeon for another 2 weeks and Siyeon would return to Hong Kong to see her again.

But Siyeon didn't come....

SuA thought Siyeon was probably tired about something. She sympathized with Siyeon and asked Siyeon, but her message went unanswered.

"Sing, how are you?"

.......

"Are you busy these days?"

......

"If there's anything, please text me right away."

.......

Not receiving any messages from Siyeon made SuA restless. She picked up the phone and called Siyeon outside of office hours, hoping Siyeon would answer

Siyeon answered the phone, but spoke in a tired, superficial way.

SuA felt pity, she waited every day to see Siyeon again.

And as soon as she set foot in Incheon, she went straight to Daegu after texting to let Siyeon know. On the way, she received Siyeon's first text message.

"Let's meet and talk for a bit now, have lunch by the way, at Shatter restaurant."

SuA came to Shatter restaurant with a vague thought. Is there something important that Siyeon wants to ask her to come to the restaurant to talk about?

The twos can meet at home to talk, isn't going out to the restaurant too serious...?

Because she was feeling too rushed, SuA drove straight to Shattet, she put two large suitcases in the trunk of the car.

SuA’s current vision is of Lee Siyeon, leisurely sitting and drinking wine, her belly protruding a little from the growing pregnancy.

SuA feels a sense of foreboding inside

A gloomy atmosphere takes place around the restaurant. Today, at the beginning of the week, it was also deserted, every noise made was easily noticed.

- Why did you suddenly invite me out here today? - SuA opened her mouth, she couldn't stand this stuffy scene, Siyeon looked extremely calm

- I have something important to tell you - Siyeon did not raise her head, continuing to eat the steak on the plate

- What's going on? We can go home and talk about it

- If we talk at home, I'm afraid I won't be able to accomplish my goal

- What's the goal?

- I want us to break up

- Huh? - SuA rolled her eyes

- ........ - Siyeon raised a pair of soulless eyes

- Why are you suddenly like this? Did I do something wrong?

- I don't know if you're wrong or not, but I broke up with you for another reason

- What reason?

- I fell in love with someone else.

- What? Who? - SuA's face became more and more unsightly, she could not expect this

- You know, during pregnancy I always need someone by my side, but you can't do that for me.

- Sing, I always wanted to do that, but my situation didn't allow it, you understand that

- I can't sympathize anymore, I sympathize with you, who sympathizes with me?

- .......

A scene of silence took place again

- Lee Siyeon, we signed the marriage papers together, right?

- Bora, that's a meaningless piece of paper you know

- The child in your belly is mine, how can you say breakup so easily?

- If biologically speaking, this is only my child

- Lee Siyeon - SuA shouted

- I've moved all my things to my parents' house. You bought the house in Daegu for me. I appreciate that, but now you should sell it and go back to Seoul to live.

- ......

- I paid for this meal, kind regards

Siyeon left in SuA's surprise

SuA couldn't believe her eyes, the person she loved the most just came to Hong Kong to find her last month, kept the love for her unchanged for 3 years, and now said breakup to her.

Who is the person Siyeon is in love with, and what character is it that makes Siyeon leave her so easily?

Pulling out a ring box from her bag, SuA stared at it without knowing what to do next.

She planned to give Siyeon this ring today.....

The ring is from Meez, a high-end jewelry company in Hong Kong....

Two people got married on a meaningless piece of paper, and need a ring to make it less meaningless, right?

But Lee Siyeon's behavior turned 180 degrees in an overwhelming way.

.

.

.

.

Everything melts away like sea foam

Could it be that SuA’s life would return to the way it was before meeting Siyeon...

Is it meaningless again...?

----

Siyeon appeared at her beloved childhood home, on her feet were the leopard skin sandals that Dami had bought as a gift.

Dami is very observant and subtle. She went shopping with Siyeon a few times and it can be guessed that Siyeon likes leopard things.

Lately Siyeon has been coming home more often to pack up her things. At that time she didn't see her parents, only met the maids here.

They saw her belly and wondered, she said she would talk officially later.

And today she met mom Lee right in the garden, creating a suffocating silence between the two of them.

Mrs. Lee stared at Siyeon's belly with confused emotions, both happy and worried.

If it is Seunghwa's pregnancy, it will be great, this is what the whole family wants.

But looking at Siyeon's facial expression, it seems that's not the case

- Mom, come inside, I'll talk - Siyeon interrupted the peaceful flow in the garden. She could guess her stepmother's confused expression.

She no longer wears Seunghwa's engagement ring on her hand, she took it off a long time ago.

In the luxurious living room, Siyeon sat opposite Mr. and Mrs. Lee, next to them were two housekeepers standing in the corner of the house.

- I'm very happy that you're pregnant, getting pregnant before the wedding is now a normal thing in this modern society, it's okay, but where is Seunghwa? - Mr. Lee smiled with anticipation

- I didn't ask Seonghwa to come here

- ......

- This pregnancy is not Seonghwa's.

A scene of confusion occurred, Mrs. Lee laughed

- Well....if it's not Seonghwa's, it's probably because you already have another guy in your heart, right? Anyway....it doesn't matter, as long as that guy is a good person, no matter what his family situation is, there's no problem, our whole family can fix it all.

- No, there is no guy at all.

- Lee Siyeon, the way you talk is making me impatient - Mr. Lee cleared his throat

- I'm pregnant with a woman.

The room fell silent again, Mr. and Mrs. Lee's faces looked like disbelief

- This is not the moment to joke around, Sing - Mrs. Lee said softly.

- I'm not kidding.

- Who is that woman, Kim Bora, the thief from 3 years ago? A woman cannot make you pregnant

- The truth is that Bora secretly injected a man's sperm into me, causing me to get pregnant. It can be said that this pregnancy is hers. But that doesn't mean I and her are together. I broke up with her, I will keep this pregnancy alone.

- Then you should still marry Seonghwa, he will raise the baby with you.

- No, I already have someone else in my heart, I can't be with Seonghwa

- Lee Siyeon, you're making a mess of everything

- Seonghwa is a young master of a large corporation, he will never accept marrying a woman who has a child with someone else.

- ....

- I'm looking for a private house to live in. I'll stay at this house for a short time.

- ......

- I'm done eating.

Siyeon left in anger from Mr. and Mrs. Lee

2 weeks later

Siyeon's lovely belly protruded a little more. Today Dami invited her to a place to party. Dami said that her company had just got a lucrative contract, making a lot of money.

Two days ago, Siyeon and Dami talked and arranged to have dinner together at a restaurant on the weekend. But now Dami changed their plan.

With her current situation, Siyeon doesn't want to go to crowded places at all. She was upset because Dami did not keep their appointment and prioritized another party

Is it heartless?

But if she refused this party, she would not be satisfied.

Siyeon decided to wear a neat maternity dress and go to the party. It is a very beautiful villa located in the center of Daegu city.

Siyeon's appearance was like a gentle breeze, no one paid attention to her because they didn't know who she was. As a person with a fairly high position in the 5-star Marriot hotel and having also gone on social exchanges with her family, Siyeon can be said that she knows a lot of people living in the Daegu area.

But she walked into this crowded house, she didn't know anyone, she couldn't find a single familiar face.

She needed to find Dami.

Siyeon went deeper inside and out into the garden. There is a swimming pool and everyone is having fun.

- Siyeon!

Siyeon turned around, happy to see Dami

- Sit here and play, I'll go get some juice for you to drink - Dami sweetly helped Siyeon sit down, giving the red-haired girl a kiss on the head.

Siyeon was embarrassed, her previous frustration disappeared. She temporarily forgives Dami's indifference tonight.

Receiving a glass of watermelon juice in her hand, before Siyeon could ask anything, Dami was dragged away by a girl.

They jumped into the pool together, the other girl hugged Dami's neck and Dami kissed her on the cheek.

Siyeon was shocked, she stood up and walked closer to the swimming pool area

She stared at that eye-catching scene until Dami saw it

Dami saw that Siyeon was not happy, she left the other girl and went to shore in a wet state.

- Siyeon, what's wrong?

Siyeon rolled her eyes then turned and walked away.

Dami chased after Siyeon, and the two continued to walk like that until the sound was lighter and the people were fewer.

Completely out on the street.

Siyeon knew Dami was following her, she turned around.

- Panda, do you know what you just did?

It's great, she really has a lot of love for Dami, she calls Dami by a very cute nickname even though she's very angry.

- What did I do? - Dami acted bewildered, her blue hair falling down due to the water, her bangs falling out of its original shape.

- You kiss another girl in front of me, why would you do that to your lover?

- Lover? Siyeon, we are not lovers

- What?
