— part two. "we don't need to find a set up where someone wins and someone loses."

"So, who's the lucky man?" Hyunjae says as he unsteadily makes his way to their fridge.

"Is he more handsome? Smarter? A better kisser? A better man? A better husband? C'mon, Bailey. Tell me. I wanna know all about him." He adds before gulping down more alcohol.

"I wanna know all about the reason why you—" He points at Bailey's direction. "Decided to cheat on me." He added, pointing to himself.

Bailey just stood there, unable to speak and unable to move an inch.

"What's the matter? Have you lost your words, love? Cat got your tongue?" Hyunjae says, laughing at what he just said.

"You're just drunk, Jae." Bailey says, attempting to change the conversation.

"All this time, I was working my ass off to become worthy of the company and worthy of your praise as our company's heir, and yet here I am, going home only to confirm that my oh-so-lovely wife is cheating on me." He shrugs.

"Where's the fun in that, Bailey? Tell me."

"Let's just go to our room, Jae. I'll help you prepare for bed." Bailey says as she takes the whiskey bottle from his hands and places it onto the counter top. She then carefully wrapped her arm around his waist and placed his arm over her shoulder to better assist him up the stairs.

Hyunjae didn't struggle to break free from her grasp, instead, he simply kept quiet. As soon as they arrived, she placed him on the bed.

As she opened their closet to get him some clothes he could change into, Hyunjae suddenly breaks the silence — "Love, please tell me, where did I go wrong?" And by now, tears were already rolling down their cheeks.
