Changed Body 588

Chapter 588 – Old Relationship (7)

A dazzling city center.

She was lost in thought as she stared blankly at the forest of buildings passing by quickly outside the window.

My mind is so confused.

Magic, husband, Kim Do-jin, and hexagram.

Problems that were thought of separately were all tangled together to form a huge thread.

This color and that color are all mixed up.

It’s a huge bundle that I can’t even figure out where to start.

I don’t know how to handle it.

I feel anxious that if I touch it incorrectly, it will become more complicated, and I will never be able to untangle it.

However, staying quiet because you are afraid to touch it does not solve the problem.

In the end, I had to find it somehow.

There is only one number, a clue, that can help us unravel this complex thread step by step.

However, I don’t know yet.

Where to start.

So, I plan to take a risk and touch it little by little.

It all started with my husband, Son Si-woo.

“We have arrived.”

“Thank you.”

Han Joo-hee gets out of the car and enters the building.

Then, people who were busy walking around her stopped walking and started looking at her.

“Ha, this is Hunter Joohee Han…”

“Oh my god…, This is my first time seeing the real thing.”

Some people watched in fascination, some were surprised, and some admired.

They are all combatants or clerks of the Dawn Guild.

How could it be surprising to meet the guild leader’s wife while working at the guild run by her husband? It was quite surprising to them.

“This is my first time seeing you in 3 years of working here.”

“I’ve been here for 6 years and this is my first time.”

“Eh, really?”

“Would you lie about something like that?”

As can be seen from the people whispering, the number of times she showed up at the Dawn Guild was quite small.

Han Joo-hee walked across the gap to the desk, paying no heed to the gazes of the people standing still in their seats, as if time had stopped.

“He’s in the guild leader’s room right now, right?”

Her question awakened the guide’s spirit.

“Yes? Ah, yes! He is there now.”

“I’m going up now, so please contact me.”

“Yes… !”

After finishing what I had to say, I turn around and get into the elevator.

She was alone inside.

There were many people going up in the elevator, but no one took a step.

As if it had to be that way.

The door closes, and the fast-moving elevator stops.

Ding!

As soon as the door opens, the man waiting in front lowers his head.

“Welcome, ma’am. “It’s been a long time since I last saw you.”

He was the chief secretary.

One of the real people who takes on most of Son Si-woo’s work and coordinates his schedule, and a founding member of the guild.

As he was an old member, he had a connection with Han Joo-hee.

That’s why he came to this place.

She also lightly bowed her head and said hello.

“Long time no see. How have you been?”

“Haha, yes.”

“I came to see her husband.”

When she spoke directly, the chief secretary made a disapproving expression.

“Ah…, You said so. But unfortunately, it won’t be possible to meet you right away.”

“Is something going on?”

“Yes. “You are currently having a personal interview with a guild member in the guild leader’s office.”

Answers pouring in as if they had been waiting.

Before she could say anything, the secretary continued.

“It won’t take long. Maybe about 5 minutes…”

“Is that so?”

5 minutes.

It wasn’t that long.

“All right. “I’ll wait in front of the guild leader’s office, so you can take care of your work.”

After answering that, she heads toward the guild leader’s office, and the chief secretary quickly follows.

“Oh, hey… ! It’s been a while since I’ve seen you. How about a cup of coffee? “Didn’t you like the coffee I made in the past?”

I get lost in thought for a moment.

It certainly seems like that.

But I didn’t really want to drink it right now.

“Sorry. “I’m not thinking about coffee right now.”

“Ah…, I see. Then the other thing… ?”

The chief of staff does not leave easily and sticks with you persistently.

Only then did she feel puzzled.

A desperate will can be seen somewhere in her smiling face.

It feels like she wants to somehow prevent herself from heading to the guild leader’s room.

‘… ‘Why?’

I don’t know why.

However, that action probably did not originate arbitrarily.

“No. I don’t want to drink anything. So go and do your work.”

The secretary’s steps, who had been persistently following him, suddenly stop.

What you said just now was a warning.

Don’t bother me anymore and get out.

Only then did he give up.

“I’m sorry, ma’am. It’s been a while since I last saw you, so I guess I was a little excited. “I will return to work then.”

It was as she expected.

After news of Han Joo-hee’s arrival reached the secretary’s office, he was asked by Son Si-woo to take a little more time.

But that ended here.

If you take her time any longer, she might start to notice something.

Now I just pray.

I hope her tearful behavior will lead to enough time.

Han Joo-hee, who was watching the back of the secretary suddenly leaving, also turns around and takes a halting step.

I was confused.

‘… Wasn’t it just a bid to waste time?’

If the goal was to take time, I think he would have dragged it around a bit more, but he turned around too easily.

Maybe it was because he was happy to see himself after such a long time.

If that’s the case, I’m a little sorry.

With that in mind, we arrived at the guild leader’s room.

Rattling!

Someone opens the door and comes out.

It was a familiar face.

She is a woman who suddenly appears one day and is currently active as one of the key members of Son Si-woo’s party.

“Oh! Madam, hello!”

Michelle.

It seems that she was the guild member that her husband was having a private meeting with.

“Are you waiting because of me? I’m sorry!”

“… No, it’s okay.”

Han Joo-hee answers coldly.

It was strangely annoying.

Her gaze, expression, and tone of voice towards me.

“I’ll just go! Have a great time!”

After saying that and lowering her head, she leaves.

Han Joo-hee watches her back for a moment and then turns around.

I pull the door that isn’t closed properly, open it wide, and go inside and look around.

It hasn’t changed much from the past.

Siwoo Son, who was sitting on the large sofa, waves his hand in this direction.

“Uh, honey. What’s happening all of a sudden?”

“…”

She was speechless for a moment.

I don’t know where to start.

A reddened face?

Disheveled appearance?

Or is it the faint smell of sweat that can be felt beyond the smell of air deodorizer that fills the room?

A strong shock stabs both sides of my temples mercilessly.

Did you say that ominous premonitions are not wrong?

‘At last…’

It was as expected.

Michelle and my husband, who passed by a little while ago, seemed to be lusting after each other until she arrived.

You’re probably asking yourself right now why you’re interrupting such a good time.

Slurp!

As I sit down on the sofa helplessly, he asks.

“What would you like to drink? Coffee? Or black tea?”

“… It’s okay.”

It keeps coming back to me.

‘Come to your senses, Han Joo-hee.’

It’s not like something unexpected happened.

It wasn’t long before she started to distance herself from him, she expected.

A day like this might come at any time.

It was natural.

Isn’t he a human too, a man?

Rather, I held on for a long time.

After being with him for almost 10 years, I found a new woman by my side.

So, you shouldn’t act like a wife who is shocked by the infidelity of her husband, whom she trusted.

Bringing this moment upon yourself is ultimately the result of your own choice.

After chewing her lips and repeating it to a level that was close to self-hypnosis.

She asked.

“The woman who just left…, Right Michelle? Recently active in your party.”

“Huh? Ah, that’s right. “Her ability is so outstanding that the guild has been promoting her recently.”

“I see.”

Han Joo-hee closes her mouth once again in response to the naturally virtuous answer.

I can barely suppress the questions about Michelle that keep popping up in my mind.

There is something more important than that now.

“So, what do you want to talk about?”

She answered the question that came in just in time.

“I want to ask you something.”

“What do you want to ask?”

“Yes.”

There are countless similar people in the world.

Whether it’s appearance, personality, or way of speaking.

But there are no identical people in the world.

It was natural.

Even if you are born with a similar appearance and personality, your growth process and accumulated experiences are different.

So I didn’t doubt it at first.

When I saw Kim Do-jin, who seemed similar to her husband, I thought they might just have similar personalities.

But not now.

He dared to go beyond a similar level.

After feeling this at the scene of the terrorist attack and looking up videos of him, she was finally convinced.

‘It’s not similar, it’s the same.’

This is only possible if my husband’s traces are directly buried.

So at first, I thought that maybe I was a disciple he secretly raised.

But it wasn’t.

If that were the case, you would have known even if others didn’t.

For that to happen, there must be at least one point of contact between the two, but there was none at all.

Where Kim Do-jin appeared, Son Si-woo was not there.

Kim Do-jin did not exist where Son Si-woo was.

If they weren’t both celebrities, they wouldn’t even know each other existed.

Then just one thing.

It occurred to me the number of cases in which we can resemble each other even if there is no point of contact throughout our lives.

“Please answer honestly.”

Son Si-woo’s mood sinks as the atmosphere becomes heavier.

She asked him.

“Kim Do-jin.”

As soon as the three names spill out of his mouth, Son Si-woo’s face distorts.

In the despairing process of her doubts turning into certainty, she ended her question.

“Is this your son?”

“… !”

Son Si-woo’s mouth opened wide.
