He remembered leaving him a sizeable amount of alimony after their divorce.
The amount should be more than enough for him to live the rest of his life in luxury, so why had he
found him in such a situation?.
This question had been clogging his mind ever since he left the hospital.
"Jk, what’s on your mind?" Lisa asked curiously, to which Jk answered drily, "Nothing
serious."
"You’re thinking about Tae, aren’t you?" Lisa sighed, "Even I couldn’t believe that was
the same Tae we saw up there. Why did he choose to live like this when he has the
resources for a better life? Why is he so dense?"
Dense… that was exactly how Jk pictured Tae.
Sometimes dense could be cute but Tae had the lethal combination of being dense and stubborn.
Because of this, troubles tended to follow the men and the people around him.
In fact, their marriage could be said to be ruined by him stubbornness and denseness.
However, he didn’t expect him to be dumb enough to be unable to care for herself even with the great
amount of alimony he had given him.
Simply put,his encounter with Tae that day had left a great impact on him.
Jk was lost in thought so he didn’t answer Lisa questions.
Before long, the car arrived at the
restaurant.
Both of their families were already there.
Since the dinner was to discuss their upcoming nuptials, the attendees included both of their parents as
well as his son, Taeguk(little bun). He had him with Tae.
The little guy was one when they divorced, so he was four now.
"Why don’t we pick November 2nd as the wedding date? It’s an auspicious date and our
country’s national day," Jk’s mom, Old Mrs. Jeon said smilingly.
"Of course. Arrangements like these have always been left in the parent’s capable hands,"
Lisa said diffidently.
"I’m fine with any date," Jk shrugged.
"Then, the date’s set. We can focus fully on wedding preparation now. Lisa, God is still
kind towards me because you’ll finally be my daughter-in-law," Old Mrs. Jeon said happily as her
hands clasped over Lisa’s, both of them smiling joyfully.
Lisa practically grew up in front of her. She was very fond of Lisa’s personality, character, and
ability.
She had been setting Jk to bring Lisa into the Jeon Family, and finally her wish was about to
come true.
There was another woman at the table whose wish was about to come true and that was Lisa.
Finally, Jk was within her grasp.
The man was going to be hers at last.
Right then, the glass of juice little bun held in his hands fell and shattered. He also somehow managed to splash his shirt with juice.
"Lil bun, you’ve gotta be more careful," Old Mrs.Jeon scolded lightly.
"Lil bun, are you hurt?" Lisa moved in with a handkerchief to wipe the juice on his shirt but he
quickly scurried into Jk’s arms, avoiding her completely.
Lisa’s hands hung awkwardly in the air.
"I’ll go get him cleaned up," Jk said as he carried his son to the bathroom.
In the bathroom, Jk set his son down on the sink counter.
Lit bun stared intently at his swaying legs, his brain churning.
he suddenly slapped away Jk’s hands that were dabbing the juice out of his shirt.
"What’s wrong?" JK said softly as he stared at his son, "You’ve been acting up since the dinner
began, is something bothering you?"
. Lit bun lowered his head wordlessly.
When Jk lifted his son’s face, he saw a pair of determined eyes staring back at him.
