Ri Jeong Hyeok sat on this precious bench and let the rain pour over him.

With the current mood of the skies, his mind inevitably went to that night... The night which began with hope that he would be leaving for an adventure with the love of his life but ended with that woman dumping him, leaving Jeong Hyeok to experience devastation, loss and heartbreak for the very first time in his life.

He did not think he could ever forgive the person who caused him immense pain.

He did not think he could ever find love again.

Yoon Seri clucked her tongue. "I told him he didn't have to do this but he insisted. He adores our girls and treats them like family."

Their girls.

Soon after they eloped and they had declared their marriage to both their families, they didn't waste time in making babies. Seri negotiated that she be given three months to enjoy intimacies with her husband and make up for the time they lost without thinking of a possible pregnancy and Jeong Hyeok willingly agreed.
