Ugh

As a painful sound escaped his lips, everyones eyes turned to him. Yoo Yeon Seo ignored how Park Geum-ju was visibly flustered.

Whats wrong?

Ah, I get headaches sometimes. Maybe its stress.

Yoo Yeon Seo shrugged off the words of concern and swallowed the painkiller that someone handed him. He nodded vaguely at Yoo Eun-hos silent question if he was okay.

Ive been busy lately. Ill be fine if I rest.

Take good care of yourself. Do you want me to make you some herbal medicine?

Im fine.

He always felt worse when he came to this house. Yoo Yeon Seo tried to ignore the annex that was visible from the window.

Yeon Seo, do you have any good news?

Me?

All of a sudden?

Well, you and Shin Ye-won seemed to have a good chemistry in the drama.

Acting and reality are different.

What were these aunts trying to do? Yoo Yeon Seo smiled faintly.

Really? I heard that when you immerse yourself in the role, you develop feelings for the other person. Is that not the case?

I snap out of it quickly. And that sister is not my type.

Oh, brother. Sister. Dont you think you should look after the kids? Eun-ho doesnt seem to have any plans either

Yoo Yeon Seos ironclad defense backfired on Yoo Geon-min and Choi Yoo-jin. So this was a pressure to get their sons married?

The aunts are not completely clueless either

The issue of inheritance was not a joke.

Theyll figure it out themselves. We cant force them to find a match.

And these days, people get married late anyway.

Besides, our Eun-ho can be quick if he sets his mind to it. Oh, Im getting so many requests to introduce him to someone. Hes the top groom candidate among the chaebols.

Oh, you too? I hear so much about Yeon Seo. Our sons are so outstanding

Did you know that Yeon Seo is also the second-best groom candidate among the chaebols these days?

Whats the difference between first and second? Yoo Yeon Seo frowned. They turned the aunts attacks into subtle boasts about their sons.

But we should show them their great-grandchildren before dad and mom get older.

Right. Brother. Theyre still your grandsonsFôll0w current novÊls on n/o/(v)/3l/b((in).(co/m)

Isnt Seo-yoon the closest one? Arent you making a move these days?

The eldest aunt, Yoo Min-jung, closed her mouth. She knew her daughter hated it, but she was secretly pushing for a match. How did her brother find out? Lee Seo-yoons face darkened.

Brother, I thought you only cared about your sons. Do you have a lot of interest in the surroundings?

Of course. Theyre our beloved siblings and nephews.

Yoo Geon-min smiled leisurely and took a sip of water. His eyes were quite sharp Oh, dad. I only saw you as a workaholic, but this is unfamiliar. Of course, that thought didnt last long. He brightened up again when he met Yoo Yeon Seos eyes.

And Yoo Chairman, who was silently watching the situation, had a faint smile on his lips.

As expected, hes a mean old man

He was the one who made this game. It would have suited his personality to just decide and notify them. But he gave them a grace period and created this tension. What was his intention?

Kids. Are you done eating?

No.

The real power in the house was Park Geum-ju.

***

Are you guys not going home?

Well go in a bit.

You should act like this more often!

They stayed to persuade Yoo Chairman. Even when he yelled at them, they shamelessly held their ground. The cousins were uncomfortable with the adults being like that, but they didnt go outside.

Yoo Yeon Seo, who would normally go home first, also sat quietly and watched the situation.

Ill go in a bit too.

His wife wanted to secure her share or at least her childs share. But he didnt want his childrens share to go to the distant nephew.

Lee Youngtaek gently swirled the glass. Apart from the inheritance issue, he acknowledged Yeon Seos ability. The nephew knew how to roll money. It was surprising that he suddenly made a place in the entertainment industry, but he seemed to be successful there too. He looked like he could do anything.

By the way, Yeon Seo is quite a bastard.

Maybe he takes after his brother?

If he did, would the father-in-law spread rumors around the neighborhood?

Park Kyungseok nodded. Yeon Seo confirmed that his information was hidden here. He was relieved. If they knew he had a good memory, it would mean he still remembered the encounter with that madman. He didnt want that fact to be known to the head.

Why cant we have a kid like that

Brother. Dont be like that.

Lee Young-taek, the eldest uncle, seemed dissatisfied with his own children. Yoo Yeon Seo frowned as he thought of his cousin sister who looked dejected. How unlucky.

Park Kyung-seok, who knew how he felt, brought up a different topic.

You know that father-in-law cares a lot about Yeon Seo.

Who would do that in that situation? That poor kid.

But how long will he be stuck in the past? Yeon Seo, he doesnt seem to remember it anymore Hes fine, isnt he?

Thats true.

Yoo Yeon Seo was puzzled by their conversation. He thought they would talk more comfortably and candidly in private But the content was quite polite, as if they were conscious of each other.

What do you think of that incident?

That incident, he said Yoo Yeon Seo was shaken, but he didnt show it.

What is there to think about? Its over Its just a pity. What about you, brother?

I feel the same.

As the conversation turned to a heavy topic, Lee Young-taek naturally changed the subject.

Hows business going?

Just the same, you know.

I heard youre doing well overseas.

Thats not because of me, its all thanks to Seon-young How about you, brother? Are you looking forward to becoming a director soon?

The conversation shifted to their personal updates. Yoo Yeon Seo, who thought there was nothing more to gain, tuned out and headed to the living room, pretending to have gone to the bathroom.

I need to check out the annex, too

He had a throbbing headache. But his eyes kept going there, as if there was something on the original side He couldnt ignore his instinctive movements as the memory synchronization was more than half done.

Where are you going?

Over there.

The annex?

Yoo Eun-ho, who grabbed his brother, widened his eyes.

Are you okay?

Why?

You didnt even look at it.

Did I?

But he felt like he had to go there for some reason Yoo Yeon Seo went out as if he was possessed. Yoo Eun-ho followed him.

It was here

He couldnt forget it, no matter how many times he replayed the memory.

Where you met that lunatic?

Its awkward to hear lunatic from your mouth, brother.

Why, am I not human?

Yoo Eun-ho chuckled. Of course, he wasnt really laughing. He was trying to ease the tension with a smile, in case something like last time happened again.

Lets go back now.

Just a moment.

Yoo Yeon Seo approached the annex and stopped at a certain point. It was probably the room where Lee Hee-seo had been. The shape of that thing, hovering in the air, was the same as he had always seen, but the impact on his body was tremendous.

Ugh!

No, this place is still not ready.
