WHO ON EARTH DID I MARRY ?

36: Two voices in my head began to argue with each other.

We finally arrived back in Korea on Sunday evening.

We were picked up by my husband's assistant and some security details.

We drove straight to my family house  from the airport.

When my family and Man Jook saw us, they all jumped at us welcoming us.

They joined us in moving of the gifts when bought for them.

My mom was very happy to welcome me back, after presenting the gifts  that were bought for all of them, they opened them with joy and happiness.

My husband, Man Jook and my sister were on the customer dinner table catching up while I decided to join my mother in the kitchen for a Mom to son talk.

We kept our voice very low to avoid been overhead.

" Dong Woo, how did the trip go?"

" It went well mom."

" I hope he didn't suspect that you are living tomorrow evening."

" There were moments where he almost suspected but I did my best to hide it."

" Better, I want everything to go smoothly this time, but why does your face tells me that there is more to this trip?"

" Mom, there is a little problem."

" I knew it, tell me, what is the problem? I don't tell me that you change your mind."

She stared at me very fiercely with a spatula in her hand.

" No Mom, I didn't have a change of mind, please listen first. While we were on the trip, he told me that as soon as we came back, he was going to give up his seat as the CEO of LKS and file for a divorce from his wife for me."

My mom lightly hit me with the spatula in her on my shoulder and said.

" And so? You have come this far, don't tell me that you are actually considering staying back."

" Ma, am not considering anything of such, I just wanted to tell you what he said on the trip that's all."

" I don't care what he said on this trip, I don't want my son lonely and unhappy anymore, no matter the promise of whatsoever, I will be disappointed if you don't go."

" But Mom, what if he truly steps down and files for the divorce as he promised?"

I could feel the fume of anger radiating from my mother, she looked up at me and said.

" Mom, will be very disappointed in you."

This broke my heart, at her age, I hate been her constant source of worry, I won't do this to her or myself anymore.

" OK mom, I won't disappoint you, am sorry that at my age I still make you worry."

" Then stop making your old mother worry, go back to American and live well again, find yourself a true gentle man and marry, he doesn't have to be rich, only then will I be truly happy and have peace of mind."

" What if he comes looking for me here after I leave?"

" The most important thing for you is to leave first, whatever happens next when he comes here, I will handle it, don't worry about that for now."

" So how are you planning tomorrow?"

" In order not to raise suspicion, I will go to work as usual then straight to the airport when its close to my flight time, my friend already has my ticket and luggage, he will take them there for me while I will take taxi to the airport to avoid suspicion."
