Afterward, they went downstairs to have breakfast. When they reached the dining table, they saw Ji-so was already sitting there. Hanni was not present, as today was their day off, and she usually woke up late on Sundays. They took their seats and began eating breakfast. After a while, Umer came towards the dining table with long hair, having decided to grow it out, but he had shaved cleanly. Everyone's eyes fell on him as he said, "Assalamualaikum."

Ahmed replied, "Walaikum Assalam," and Ji-so smiled, motioning for him to come and sit in his seat. Ji-so now sat in Mr. Dawood's seat in the middle, with Ahmed and Aira sitting on her right side, and Umer taking a seat on the left side of the dining table. Ji-so stood up, kissed his forehead, and then he sat down. She then asked, "Oh, my Tae-min, what do you want to eat, hmm?"

Umer looked much better than yesterday but still felt uncomfortable and embarrassed in front of Aira, as she used to sit beside him before. Meanwhile, Aira was frozen in her seat, and Ahmed noticed her tension. He placed his hand on her thigh to calm her and looked at her, saying, Belle?"

She flinched and replied, "Ye..yeah...what?"

He caressed her thigh, and Aira placed her hand on his, which was resting on her thigh. "Baby, eat your breakfast," he said. She nodded hesitantly, sweating slightly, and Ahmed began to feed her with his own hands. Umer watched them, and a flashback came to his mind when he saw Ahmed feeding her. Tears welled up in his eyes, but he controlled himself. When they were married, he hadn't even looked at what she was eating or asked her if she wanted anything because he was too busy eating his own meal.

Then Ji-so, holding a slice of bread towards his mouth, said, "Here, eat this, my child." He looked at her, smiled painfully, and ate the food. Aira felt a little more at ease due to Ahmed's comfort. Ahmed was about to feed her again when, out of nowhere, Hanni came running in, holding her phone. "Yaah, Kim! Hurry, Mr. Lee got into an accident! We have to go see him."

He stood up, shocked, and put the food back on his plate

He stood up, shocked, and put the food back on his plate. He was about to leave, but Aira stopped him by holding his hand and said, "First, complete your breakfast."

Hanni interrupted, "Yaah, Kim! We will eat there, but come on, he's in critical condition. Let's go!"

He kissed Aira's hands and said, "Complete your breakfast, hmm? I'll be right back."

Aira looked at him but didn't respond. She shot Hanni an angry glare, to which Hanni smirked before leaving. Ahmed went to change out of his pajamas. Umer then stood up and said, "I should also go see Mr. Lee, Mom."

Ji-so stopped him and said, "No, it's not right for you to go in this situation. No one knows you've come back after such a long time."

Umer lowered his head and sat back down. Meanwhile, Ahmed returned quickly, finishing the buttons on his shirt. Aira stood up and went to him near the main gate to help set his shirt as she was used to doing. Instead, he immediately pecked her on her lips and said, "Take care," before leaving.
