House Made Of Cards

Chapter 8 - Pottery

Jeongyeon smiled while walking to his car where chaeyoung was waiting for him inside

He drove off to their next destination that's a bit far

"Sir can I ask you something?" chaeyoung asked

"Sure chae, hope it's not annoying."

"how was your previous marriage? I am sure that you hate talking about it but I am just curious"

Jeongyeon sighed and a sad smile left his mouth, "It was formal I guess, cliché, but I loved her I can't deny it, we met after I discharged from military service, we dated for few months then she got pregnant, I decided to marry her, my parents didn't like her that much, then she died while giving birth to iseul"

"hmmmm that's sad" chaeyoung stated

"hope I will see you married soon" jeongyeon joked

"Not in a 10 years!" chayeoung added and laughed

"but sir how was your personality? I mean you were a bit different in America"

Jeongyeon sighed "since I was young, my dad thought me how to shoot and fight, I never understood why, and he gave me books about criminals, I read them all, when he died I discovered that all this time he was training me so I can replace him and that's what i am now"

"but it's not you, you look soft"

"naah! I am an asshole, I have to be like this so i can make the work continue and rise the Yoo family name I am able to be like this"

Chaeyoung sighed and looked at him through the mirror "himnae sir"

Jeongyeon smiled and looked through the mirror, thinking about how fast he changed into a monster, and how he was deceived by his dad's external works... he sighed and closed his eyes while chaeyoung continued to drive.

Meanwhile momo was in mina's room she has a head aching from both her hangover and her mental breakdown.

"you drank so much? I didn't notice"

"Shut up I don't remember anything and how I came here"

Momo laughed and shook her head

"Forget about me, how was your last night? I don't see any love marks" mina teased

"Emotionless" momo resumed it in one word

"He is handsome and calm why you don't like him" mina asked while touching her head

"appearance is not the only thing that matters, you don't know" momo said staring out of the window, where she saw the armed bodyguards surrounding the house "You don't know" she said in a low voice, getting a flashback when jeongyeon pulled his gun on her

"Anyway sleep and I will be with iseul" she said leaving mina in her room

She went to iseul where he was sitting on the floor playing with the gun jeongyeon bought to him

"Gun again?" she said sitting next to him

"it's from my dad, I love it"

She smiled and caressed his hair, hours passed, all she did was either playing with iseul, laying down or feeding iseul, it was almost 8 PM when she felt extremely bored, she decided to leave her room and walk around in the huge mansion that she swore she didn't see the half of it yet. She was walking around on the third floor when she noticed a black door, she looked around and no one was there, boldly she opened the door

"Wow" was the only word that left her mouth as she saw a

"But why on earth they have a gallery in their mansion??" she said looking at the nice paints that are gifted to joowon, or the small sculptures
