Chapter 7
The Will That Changed Their Lives
Narrator’s POV
“Why are you still out here?” Yunho asked as he approached his girlfriend.
“You got hurt?!”
“It’s fine, I accidentally bumped into someone. She was kind enough to help me.”
“She bandaged your wound? Now, that’s rare.” Yunho nodded as he placed his arm around her waist and they entered the restaurant.
Soomin sat alone on her table. She needed alone time. Things were bothering from her. She knows that she’ll feel extremely guilty if she wont marry the man because her father’s share will be grabbed by the BOD. And she didn’t want that, she’d be more happy if will fall into her cousin’s hands but, she has to claim it first.
“This is ridiculous.” She muttered.
“Miss, can I take your order?”
“Can you give me one of everything?”
“Y---yes?”
Ailee was taking a break from her work. She was sitting down on the bench watching the people swimming on the beach. Then she saw a familiar figure walking towards her.
“Khun?” She called out. The man nodded at her. He sat beside Ailee.
“How have you been doing?”
Ailee shrugged.
“If you’re going to ask about Soomin, she’s fine…. better even.” Ailee looked away.
“Does she still work in the hospital?” Khun asked.
“Yes, she still does.”
“Lee, I need to talk to her.”
“Well, you could have at least done that a year ago.”
Nichkhun stood up.
“She’s not even in the country, don’t look for her.”
“I need her, Lee.”
“She doesn’t need you, she’s getting married.”
Your POV
What a perfectly fine day for chowing down.
“Why are you alone?”
I looked up and found my cousin looking at me.
“Are you trying to gain weight?”
I shook my head, he sat down in front of me.
“Don’t offer, I already ate.” He said. I grinned.
“Something’s bothering you.”
“A lot of things are usually, like what if epistaxis causes cancer or vasoconstriction~”
He threw me a look. I shut up.
“Haraboji asked me to pick you up. We’ll be meeting him at Hilton.”
What?! NO!
Yunho’s POV
While having lunch with Hyoran, my phone suddenly rang.
“Hello?”
“Yunho, it’s mom.”
I winced. I remembered the talk we had, and what father told me.
“We’re having tea in Hilton, please come.”
“Eomma, I’m having lunch with Hyo~”
“Didn’t I tell you to stop meeting her? I’ll be expecting you here in 10 minutes.”
I looked at my phone. Since when did eomma get so cranky?
Hyoran looked at me and gripped my hand once.
“Who was it? It sounded urgent.”
“My mom.” I replied. Then she grew quiet.
“They don’t like me, do they?”
I looked up in shock.
“Hyoran-ah, I~”
“Don’t worry, I understand them, I’ll prove to them that I’ll be the worthy girlfriend of Jung Yunho.” She smiled.
How can I tell her about the will? How?!
Narrator’s POV
The Shim siblings got inside the lobby. Well, Changmin was practically dragging his younger cousin.
“Why are you acting like this? Its just meeting haraboji,,,,unless you did something wrong again?”
Soomin frowned and looked away.
Yunho arrived at the reserved hall; he found his parents and the elder Shim chatting. He sighed inwardly and sat down.
“Good afternoon.” He greeted quietly. His parents nodded at him while the elder Shim gave him a smile.
“It seems that my kids are going to be late, I’m sorry for that.”
“It’s okay, I understand a young lady like miss Shim is quite busy.” Mrs. Jung said. Yunho looked puzzled.
“Isnt she on a vacation here?” Yunho asked.
“Yes, but son, she’s a doctor, who knows some hospitals might have contacted her.”
“She’s a doctor?!”
Then the doors opened, Soomin was the first one to step in.
“Oh, oppa, it’s your friend.” She said.
Yunho’s POV
Soomin smiled at me and she sat down.
She doesn’t know does she?
“You’re here to hyung?” Changmin asked. I could only nod.
“So, what are we doing?” Soomin asked.
“Soomin, this is Mr. and Mrs. Jung.” Haraboji said.
“Ah.Yes, nice to meet you.” She said politely.
“This is their son, Yunho.”
“I know haraboji, he’s oppa’s friend, we’ve met a few days ago.” She nodded.
She has no idea.
“Soomin, he’ Jung Yunho.” Haraboji said again.
“I know~ wait, you’re JUNG YUNHO?!” She looked at me with wide eyes.
Changmin looked at us.
“Yeah, he is little girl.” Changmin rolled his eyes.
“Changmin-ah, Yunho’s going to be your cousin-in-law.”
Your POV
Him? Oppa’s friend? He’s Jung Yunho?!
I was running a cold sweat. Changmin oppa looked at me.
“It’s the will.” I muttered. Mr. and Mrs. Jung were smiling at me. Yunho sat there emotionless.
“In-law? He’s marrying Soomin?” Oppa asked. Two papers suddenly appeared on the table.
“Here is the will of Shim Jeongmin, he had this written when Soomin was still six.”
Mr. Jung took out his papers and gave it to me.
My eyes widened as I read it.
I am Shim Jeongmin’s eldest daughter.
“Sorry, if we didn’t state your name there, my dear. We wrote that one when Yunho was still a baby and clearly you weren’t born yet that time.”
“Then, we’ll leave you two to talk, Changmin-ah, let’s go.” Haraboji said as the elder stood up. Oppa patted my shoulder and left.

Changmin seems to be cool about it....
