Chapter 18
The Baby You're Pregnant With Isn't My ChildThe rest of the days of their honeymoon went beautifully well. There were no longer calls from Yoora’s ex-boyfriend, Ryan, since she decided to turn off her phone the whole week throughout their honeymoon together. With the remaining days of their honeymoon, they spent their time together at places in Jeju that they hadn’t gone to yet. They also didn’t forget to try out a lot of popular and delicious foods in Jeju and were satisfied with most of the restaurants that they had tried at.
After a week being in Jeju, they finally flew back to Seoul, already missing their home sweet home and their maid, Auntie Ha. The next day, they did their life routine as usual with a more peaceful heart.
A week later…
“Oppa, aren’t you sleepy?” Yoora asked as she yawned sleepily.
“Not yet,” Donghae replied, tearing his gaze away from the television which was displaying his favourite movie to his wife. “Are you sleepy already?”
“Neh. Can I go to sleep first?”
“Sure. I’ll join you after this movie ended,” Donghae said with a smile as Yoora carefully got off the couch.

Donghae rushed into the unfamiliar apartment building and to the level 9 as stated in the text sent by Jiyeon.
