Master Jeon's Pampered Wife

1:50

Hanbin looked up at him indifferently, then shook his head with a sigh. “That’s fine. You should go home.”

“But CEO Han…” Secretary Wang looked hesitantly at Hanbin, unconvinced.

“I’m fine. You go home first. I want to be alone for a while.” Hanbin was extremely exhausted and his raspy voice sounded weak. Without waiting for Secretary Wang’s response, he leaned forward with both arms on his knees. Exasperated, he pulled at his hair and held up his heavy head.

Secretary Wang watched him silently for quite a while. He could not help but sigh on the inside. In the end, he quietly left.

The corridor was instantly empty. It was so quiet that there was an indescribable sensation of the air being stifled.

He was silent for a long while before finally gathering the courage to get up and push open the door to the ward that was tightly shut.

Just as he entered, he saw that Luna was staring at the door with a dazed expression on her face.

“I thought you wouldn’t come in!” When she saw Hanbin’s figure, Luna’s hoarse voice came through as she looked hurt at Hanbin.

Hanbin slowly walked over. He took a careful look at her, then turned around to pour her a glass of water. His deep voice seemed to have currently calmed down a lot more. “Drink some water first.”

Luna did not take the glass. She just looked up silently at him, her eyes still glittering with tears as her beautiful eyes were swollen.

“Hanbin, I’ll listen to you from now on. I’ll quietly stay behind you to be a good wife. We’ll be happy, and we have our baby. This time, let it past. Let’s start fresh. Everything will be better, okay?”

Luna seemed to be exhausted too. She even sounded weak when she spoke and her eyes were carefully begging him.

Hanbin breathed in deeply. When he saw that she did not continue, he responded, “Luna, once some things have happened, no matter what, we can’t just pretend it never happened… You know, I’ve never agreed to wishful thinking, so every time after your headstrong act, I admit that I become more unhappy with you by the day. I also didn’t know how long I could endure it. Every time after I forgive you, I’d tell myself, ‘This is definitely the last time’, but it always seemed as if this last time would always be far in the indefinite future…”

When he said this, he paused and lowered his gaze. He looked at the ring on his hand as a faint light greeted his sight. In that instant, he suddenly felt like a dimmed out lightbulb. After a while, he continued, “I’m a little tired of my one-sided efforts, Luna… No matter how many times I put up with you, I know that it would never be the last time. I think I might not be as tolerant as I thought. In the end, I can’t protect you. Perhaps, you actually don’t need anyone’s protection…”

“No! No! Hanbin, you can protect me. You can protect me forever. Please don’t say such things! The way you’re acting right now feels so foreign to me. I don’t know what to do… I also don’t know how to make it up to you. I really love you. Don’t do this. Please! Don’t give up so easily. We’ve gone through the worst of times together.”

When she heard Hanbin say that, Luna’s body trembled. She reached out to pull Hanbin’s sleeve in a panic. “Back then, you could’ve chosen me without a second thought and give up on Sister. Why are you brooding over these things now? Isn’t Sister fine now? We don’t have to feel so guilty. Even though we did get lucky, this shows that God is watching over us and we didn’t cause too huge of a problem. This means that God still hopes that we can be together with a clear conscience…”
