Jaebum rubbed his temples and entered home. He spent the whole night at his office with Jinyoung, Sana and two lawyers to discuss the matter. Sana could have left but didn't. And Jaebum was grateful for that. She was there with him as a friend and not a receptionist.

He was exhausted and wanted to relax for some time. Although he knew that he won't be able to sleep a wink. In the end he decided to take a long bath and then just lie down.

"Prepare a bath for me."

He handed his bag to Dasom and asked her to prepare his bath. The maid nodded and left to do her work. He walked towards the dining area where his mother and wife were.

"Beom-ah.."

He sat on his usual seat while Mrs Im handed him a glass of water. Meera looked at his tired state. His condition didn't look good.

"What happened? You didn't come home last night."

Jaebum took a deep sigh telling them about what happened. The two women gasped at the sudden information. Mrs Im held his shoulder to comfort him. The mother and the son had defeated looks on their faces. Meera realised that the project was very important, so not wanting to disturb them she walked to the kitchen to get something to eat for her husband.

She saw Bora and Hyolyn talking about it. Even they looked upset.

"Was it that important?" Meera asked cluelessly. The maids nodded telling her the story behind the whole project.

"He wanted to set up that old age home in his late father's name. Sir and Mam have been preparing for it for two years now. The old age home meant a lot for them, emotionally. They paid extra attention to it but still something like this happened. I feel really bad."

Hyolyn explained, which left Meera shock. She lowered her head thinking about his last night's outburst. She bit her lip to stop herself from crying. She felt bad that her husband was going through so much while she was crying over a dinner date.

"Meera.." Bora came forward and hugged her, letting her rest her head on her shoulder.

After calming herself she walked out to see Mrs. Im alone in the living room. Her face looked dull. Meera sat next to her. She then held her mother in law's hand catching her attention.

"It will be okay. Please be strong." Mrs Im nodded with a small smile. "Jaebum needs you more."

After spending some time with her, Meera went to her room to talk to Jaebum. He came out of the walk in closet drying his hair with a small towel. She walked to him and held her hand out for the towel.

Jaebum sat on the bed and gave her the towel to do the needful. Meera gently dried his hair while thinking of ways to initiate a conversation with him.

"I'm sorry for last night." Jaebum couldn't keep it in and apologised. He was thinking about it on his way back home and it was killing him when those harsh words replayed in his mind. He held her hand and turned around a bit to look at her.

"I..." She wanted to tell him that she was upset and it broke her heart but decided not to. He was already going through a lot. But there was another thing in her heart.

Fear. She was scared to be scolded again if she told him how she really felt. She wanted to pour her heart out and let him know how low he made her feel but then it won't do any good. He might snap at her for being inconsiderate.
