Her Statements
Wealth, Love and Us
Darkness had covered the bright skies. Eunjung was sitting in the dining room. She finished all her duties as a mother. She had put Yongjun to sleep already. She was holding a glass of soju, just shaking it a bit, which made the liquid twirl round and round.
"Divorce..." Eunjung mumbled. She was sitting and thinking what Mrs Kwon had said.
*She's right... All this time, I'm only hurting him. The fact that I...I only seduced him for money...it had hurt him so much...that he...he couldn't even stand the sight of me... Divorce...divorce is the only way...*

Mrs Kwon knocked the door of Jiyong's study room. She came in and sat on the couch in front of his table. She looked around and thought of Mr Kwon, her late husband.
"This used to be your father's study room..." Mrs Kwon mumbled, but Jiyong could still hear her. He immediately softened. He approached his mother and sat next to her. He hugged his mother, while a tear fell from her eyes.
"Jiyong-ah, I met Eunjung.." Mrs Kwon told her son. Her words had made Jiyong's eyes widened. The hug broke.
"You did?" Jiyong asked.
"You've met her?" Mrs Kwon asked and Jiyong nodded.
"W-what did she say to you?" Mrs Kwon asked.
"She...she rejected me...she said she changed...I accepted the fact that she changed, and I'm going to get her --" Jiyong was cut by his mother.
"Divorce her. I want you to have a divorce with her." Mrs Kwon immediately interrupted.
"Omoni...w-what...what did you talk about with her?" Jiyong backed from his mother. He was sure that something happened.
"She doesn't love you anymore, maybe she never has. Its time for you to move on.. My grandson, your son, I think he died already or I think he was never your son, maybe he was another man's son... So, I'll tell our family lawyer regarding this matter. And, the divorce will be very quiet." His mother told him. Jiyong couldn't say anything anymore. She was right, but Jiyong had to hear this all from Eunjung, herself.

The next day came, Jiyong was like a depressed person and so was Eunjung. Eunjung took Yongjun to his school and went to the company. She cheered herself up before going inside the building.
Jiyong went to the company by car. He was in deep thinking during the whole journey. He didn't even realize when the car stopped. Everyone greeted him but he didn't greet them back like he used to. He threw himself on his seat and looked at the ceiling above him. Then, he fixed his sitting posture and called his secretary. He pressed the number 2 to direct him.
"Mrs Jung, when is the meeting with Xen Fashion?"
"Umm.. The meeting's at 2 pm sir."
"Okay."
With that, Jiyong hung up on the phone.
