“Ji-woo, I’m only saying this because you’re not a complete stranger. I hope you stop seeing Tae-mu from now on. The same goes for visiting the Haeju estate. Tae-mu’s grandfather is getting old, his judgment is clouded. He lets just anyone into the house without realizing the consequences. Honestly, what’s the point of aging if you don’t gain any wisdom?”49dcf5adb9ad3209

The son she knew, 6f9969c55e Tae-mu rarely showed emotion. If anything, he was cold, e998068708 almost indifferent. As a child, his lack 027433bf2f of empathy had worried her.1d9b90753600976e

He was precise, calculated, razor-sharp e7837bf26d in his judgments, so much e9443b072c so that even she, his 773e8ca050 own mother, found him intimidating. He was not ead070ebc2 someone who would c66ebfd3f5 lose control and ba49220d1c act recklessly.4ee59fddc9c509b9

“Do you really think having this baby will give you a claim over anything? Clearly, you don’t understand how the law works. The legal system in this country favors men. Women always bear the brunt of it. That means full custody and parental rights will go to the father. You’ll be nothing but a vessel, once you give birth, you won’t even be allowed to see the child’s toes.”bdd890810f79a3bb
