The Road We Walk On

137 | The War is Over

Hera Place, Seoul

Yoonhee and Suryeon were at the Penthouse, discussing some upcoming business plans when they were informed that someone wished to see them. The person who entered the Penthouse was none other than Cheo Seojin. She looked really different, she was dressed rather plainly and looked like she had lost some weight.

They were a bit shocked when she appeared because just yesterday the police issued a warrant for her arrest. Technically shouldn't she be on the run, why did she show up here?

I have a favor to ask.

What is it?

I have just handed over the Chungah Group CEO position to Oh Yoonhee. Yoonhee was shocked, she had thought that Seojin would have handed over the position to someone who was an ally to her not her enemy.

Why did you?

It is because there is no longer a Chungah Group.

What?!

I am throwing away the company.

Why?

As Eunbyeol said, this company had created more pain than it brought happiness. It is stained with the blood and crimes of people. Since Eunbyeol doesn't want it, perhaps you two will make better use of Chungah resources than I did.

The two were really shocked at this development. Are you going somewhere?

Yes, I am going to the police station later right after this.

You are turning yourself in?!

Yes, I want to be a mother that is worthy of standing in front of her own daughter. You two have saved and put back your family, while mine is still destroyed. If I want Eunbyeol to one day acknowledge me as mom. I need to do this.

Even though the two of them were rather shocked at Seojin's sudden change of heart. They understood, at the end of it, that Seojin was ambitious and power hungry, she was a mother. There is no denying that she did love Eunbyeol with everything, although sometimes her love for her daughter caused her to shelter her too much. Yet, now she was finally taking a step to win back her daughter's love for her. This was a good thing.

With that, after gaining Suryeon and Yoonhee's promise that they will make good use of Chungah Group's resources and influence. She left Hera Place for the last time. Her secretary had already packed all her belongings and settled everything within Chungah Group. She could now leave with no regrets.

She didn't inform Eunbyeol what she was going to do but she did tell Yoonchul. She said that she would leave Eunbyeol in his hands. Seojin headed towards the nearest police station from Hera Place and turned herself in. She admitted to her crimes and said she would accept the punishment she is due. So, the war of Hera Place had finally come to an end.

An apartment, Seoul

Minhyeok heard a loud banging noise against his front door. He ran to open it and saw his mother standing there, he was about to shut the door when his mother shouted at him. I have left your father. Minhyeok in surprise looked and realised that there were luggages behind her. I have also moved out of Hera Place, from now on we two will live together okay?

Minhyeok was stunned and taking his silence as a sign, Sangah entered his apartment. She made herself comfortable. Since the apartment only came with one room, she would sleep in the living room on the floor. She had come prepared and ordered a thin mattress for the floor.

What about Appa?

I don't know. But with what has happened to Dante I don't think your father can escape judgement already.

Grandpa would have been notified.

I don't think your grandfather is going to help him.

Yeah he won't. Grandpa mentioned that he has had enough of Appa's behaviour. What about you Omma?

I have already submitted my divorce to your father already. We are no longer involved with each other.

What about money?

Ah... that... well I spoke to Mari and she said she is willing to help me by getting me a job.

Really?

Yes, like you I want to become independent. I am sorry Minhyeok that your parents have been an embarrassment to you. I heard from Yoonhee that you are such a natural teacher and how you have matured. Please let Omma also learn from you again and let's make a life together okay?

Minhyeok hugged his mother, he was really happy to hear that Omma was finally behaving her age and being independent.

Note: Yes, let's finish this haha! So I can fully concentrate on Seokrona
