CEO'S Untamed Wife | Taerose ✔️

Chapter 35

Taehyung looked at Sungjae carefully before he asked, "Have you met her before?"

Sungjae's brows furrowed up slightly, "Nope. This is my very first time meeting her. That's for sure."

"Then why does she looks familiar to you?" questioned Taehyung.

"I didn't say she looks familiar. I said her face kinda reminds me of someone. That means her features have a striking resemblance to someone I know." He rubbed his chin thoughtfully before adding, "The major difference is that her face is devoid of any expressions, unlike that person."

Taehyung grew curious as he heard that and further inquired, "Who does she look like?"

Before Sungjae could answer, SeoJun interrupted him, "Sungjae, let Uncle Choi know about Roseanne's grandfather. I'm sure he'd love to visit his old friend."

Taehyung gave his father a cursory glance. And that was all it took him to understand that his father had intentionally interrupted them. But why? Did his father already know who Sungjae was talking about? How?

Although he had all these questions running through his mind, he didn't voice out a single one. Since his father had clearly indicated that he didn't wish for him to continue this topic, he decided to drop it for now. Instead of asking Sungjae, it was better to ask his father at a later time. Because it seemed his father would be more clear about the whole situation.

"I think he already knows though," replied Sungjae. "Grandpa told me he planned to visit here in the coming week. I believe he is coming to meet his friend."

SeoJun nodded his head in understanding, "I should have known that. Their friendship is still something that can make anyone feel envious. Even though they had been away for so long, they never really grew distant."

Sungjae looked at Taehyung and inquired, "Do you also feel envious of this kind of friendship, Taehyung?" Taehyung stared at him intently as he went on, "Oh, right! You'd definitely not be envious. You have exceptional friends. Oh, I mean to say, had."

"Do you have to specifically point that out?" wondered Taehyung.

Sungjae shrugged his shoulders, "I had to do it. After all, I still believe you had the most amazing group of friends. But it's you who decided to walk on this lonely road."

"You never even had friends," Taehyung shot back. "Why do you care why I chose this lonely road?"

Sungjae gave him a small smile as he said, "Maybe that's why I know how blessed you had been to have found such friends."

Taehyung didn't want to hear it all from Sungjae. Even though he agreed with what Sungjae said, he couldn't bring himself to say it. He couldn't even refute his words. He indeed had some amazing friends but all of them had been mutual friends of his and his ex-wife. And after his divorce, he just wanted to keep his distance from everyone.

Besides, he had a lot going on that left him with no time to even contact his old friends like he used to do.

"It seemed you have had too many arguments with your ex-girlfriend," said Taehyung out of nowhere.

Sungjae was taken aback as he asked, "How do you know that?"

"You've never been this talkative before," answered Taehyung making Sungjae's face twitch. "I guess those arguments trained you well."

Sungjae pointed at Taehyung as he looked at SeoJun and asked, "Uncle Kim, what happened to your sweet son?"

"He is long gone," said SeoJun as he sighed out and stood up leaving both of them alone.
