Chapter 1014: Side Story – Please Get Me Pregnant Quickly! (2)

The moment Do Sihee saw me after so long, she immediately started whining, demanding I get her pregnant.

First of all, since it wasn’t the kind of conversation to be had at the helipad, I led her and Eunbyul to the representative’s office.

“This is Sungchul-ssi’s office. You keep it quite tidy.”

“Well, that’s because Eunbyul is here as my maid… no, secretary. Since she cleans every day, there’s no room for it to get messy.”

“Indeed, if it’s Eunbyul, she’s trustworthy. Perhaps thanks to Eunbyul’s touch, the furniture arrangement is quite efficient. I especially liked how places like the top of the bookshelves, which aren’t frequently accessed, are thoroughly blocked off. Dust accumulating in places like that is just a waste of time when cleaning.

This representative’s office desk is also quite a good material. Even the affiliates of Dokyung Group use items from this brand, and as expected, maybe because he’s the man I chose, your taste is excellent.”

“The furniture arrangement was almost entirely done by Do Yehee before she left. When remodeling the former Chuncheon City Hall building, Do Yehee personally took the lead and managed the construction. She was the one who turned the initially empty building into something that could even serve as a guild hall.”

“…Looking at it again, it’s an incredibly frustrating arrangement method. If it’s arranged like this, what are they going to do when the furniture arrangement needs to be changed later? Anyway, true to her rigid personality, that woman seems to only know how to organize it this way, doesn’t she?”

“…….”

I thought she was going to praise her older sister after so long, but the moment the words ‘Do Yehee arranged the furniture’ came out, Sihee immediately started badmouthing her.

The last time I saw them, I thought they had gotten quite close, but in the time I hadn’t seen them, for some reason I don’t know, her reaction seemed like resentment had built up.

“What did Do Yehee do again?”

“…….”

“Still, the last time I saw them, they didn’t seem to have a bad relationship. The misunderstanding related to Eunbyul was resolved too.”

“Th-that woman….”

“Yes?”

“Th-that woman keeps sending your photos via private message periodically! As if she isn’t teasing someone!!”

“…Yes?”

…Teasing who? What does that mean?

“She’s boasting that since she’s in charge of the Hope City redevelopment project anyway, she has many opportunities to meet Sungchul-ssi! Unlike me, who’s stuck in the Gangneung research lab doing monster material experiments!

It really seems like she’s determined to take one or two photos every time she runs into you within Hope City and send them. If that’s not her teasing me, who wants to meet Sungchul-ssi but can’t, then what else could it beee!”

“…Hmm.”

Perhaps, from Do Yehee’s perspective, she was trying to occasionally relay my updates for Sihee, who couldn’t meet me.

Even though it was updates about the sisters I heard after a long time, they still seemed to be terribly not communicating with each other.

‘…But when were the photos taken? I don’t particularly remember having photos taken just because we met.’

I’ll have to ask her separately later. Since the other party was Do Yehee, being secretly photographed didn’t particularly bother me, but I felt I should at least know how she did it.

“Anyway, what were you saying earlier? Even for me, it’s a bit bewildering to have you ask me to make you pregnant right after meeting after so long.”

“Ah, th-that’s right! This isn’t the time for us to be like this! Besides, I deliberately took this vacation to coincide with my fertile days!”

“So what does that mean…”

“I can’t lose to that woman, Do Yehee, in the competition for Sungchul-ssi! So, by any means necessary, I have to get pregnant before she does!”

…Well, if I had to decide who would have my child first between the two of them, I naturally think it would be Sihee, but…

Sihee right now seemed anxious, as if I might have a child with Do Yehee first if she were left alone.

“Aren’t you thinking a bit too hastily? For starters, I’m not particularly making any plans for a child with Do Yehee.”

“…You might think that, but that woman Do Yehee is different.”

“Well… even if by chance Do Yehee thinks that way, I have no intention of having a child with her before Sihee-ssi. I met Sihee-ssi much earlier, and personally, I love Sihee-ssi more than Do Yehee.”

“…Th-that’s obvious. Compared to that woman whose stamina is pathetic, I’m more equipped with charm as a woman. …As, Sungchul-ssi’s bitch slave, I am also far superior.”

The confident blonde young lady uttered the words ‘bitch slave’ about herself.

Her determination to have my child, regardless of the competition with Do Yehee, seemed unchanged as she brought up the conversation from a moment ago again.

“Still, the fact that I must give birth to Sungchul-ssi’s child during this vacation doesn’t change.”

“Well, I figured you’d say that. In the first place, Sihee-ssi took a whole year off for that reason, right? You plan to get pregnant, give birth, resolve everything, and then return to work, correct?”

“That’s right. I thought I couldn’t postpone it any longer. To be honest, I already feel wronged for not being the first woman to have relations with Sungchul-ssi, so I want to at least give birth to the first child.”

“Uh… the first child?”

“…….”

“If I miss this chance, I don’t know when I’ll be able to take the next long vacation. Of course, I could go to the lab even while pregnant, but my mother probably wouldn’t look upon it favorably.

Besides, since my mother experienced a bad incident related to that woman’s father, it would be difficult for her to view illegitimate children favorably.”

“…I suppose so.”

“…….”

…Ah, this is why I should have told her in advance.

Do Sihee knew that I was involved with multiple women, but she couldn’t possibly imagine that I had already gotten someone pregnant.

Only Eunbyul, who knew the situation, quietly watched us between me and Sihee, looking nervous.

“Sihee-nim, could you talk with me for a moment…”

“Hold on, Eunbyul. For now, I need to finish this conversation with Sungchul-ssi first.”

“…….”

“Sungchul-ssi, please bestow upon me the blessing of being able to give birth to Sungchul-ssi’s first child. I ask you like this.”

“…….”

“…….”

“If Sungchul-ssi wishes it, right now, here, to show my true feelings, I’ll even assume a submissive posture…”

“…No, there’s no need for that.”

“What?”

“As much as I’d like to grant Sihee-ssi’s request… I cannot grant that particular request.”

Do Sihee wore a clearly flustered expression, as if she couldn’t possibly have expected a refusal.

“Wh-why?! If, perhaps, I have shortcomings in giving birth to Sungchul-ssi’s first child, I’ll do anything…”

“…It’s not for that reason. However, I intend to tell you that no matter how hard you try, it’s impossible for Sihee-ssi to have my ‘first child’.”

“…What?”

“My first child… is already growing in another woman’s womb.”

“…Haaah.”

-Thump.

“S-Sihee-ssi?!”

“Sihee-nim!!”

My statement seemed quite shocking, as Do Sihee collapsed to the floor right there with a weak voice.

It was two hours later that she was finally able to barely get up from the shock.

“I-I see…. A-already two people, b-before me….”

“I’m sorry, Sihee-ssi. Actually, I should have told you in advance, but delivering this kind of story via KakaoTalk message seemed rude, so…”

Do Sihee, sitting on the representative’s office sofa, tried her best to continue the conversation from earlier.

Shocked by the fact that I already had a child with someone else, her hands and eyes were visibly trembling.

“Ah, no…. I, I myself must have been mistaken…. Someone like Sungchul-ssi wouldn’t be left alone by those around him, so it must have been quite bewildering for you when a woman he met after a few months shamelessly asked to have the first child.”

“I absolutely don’t think that, Sihee-ssi. I was thinking of making a child with Sihee-ssi anytime if Sihee-ssi wanted it. However, since Sihee-ssi also has her position, doing it without any preparation… I intended to wait for Sihee-ssi’s answer as much as possible.”

“…I see. Th-then this situation happened because I didn’t consider Sungchul-ssi’s feelings and hesitated, so in the end, it was all my fault….”

“…Sigh.”

…This seems to be quite a big shock, more than I expected.

With Cha Yuri, it passed easily enough because Hye-eun was in the same party and we had some level of friendship, but in Sihee’s case, perhaps because it felt like a woman she didn’t even know well had taken my first child, she seemed even more flustered.

Moreover, since she seemed to think the cause of it becoming like this was her own hesitation, I should first tell her that it wasn’t her fault.

“Since you seem to have a strange misunderstanding, I’m telling you, even if Sihee-ssi had proposed the conversation to me before the other two people, I would have asked their opinion first.”

“…Th-that means, I am the third-ranked woman in Sungchul-ssi’s heart…”

“No. It wasn’t based on who I loved more or less. The order in which I saw the fruits of love was the order in which they first had relations with me.”

“…….”

“As Sihee-ssi knows, my relationships with women are a bit complicated. Besides the people I met at the Hope City Guild launch ceremony last time, there are more, and the number of women who have had relations with me has increased since then.”

“…It can’t be helped. Sungchul-ssi’s awakening ability is more meaningful when utilized against so many women like that, rather than left idle.”

“Yes. Therefore, I inevitably set up a minimal rule for having children. If someone among those who have had relations with me wants my child, it will be as much as possible in the order they first had relations with me.”

“…Th-that means, I am the third-ranked woman in Sungchul-ssi’s heart…”

“No. It wasn’t based on who I loved more or less. The order in which I saw the fruits of love was the order in which they first had relations with me.”

“The time they first had relations with me was earlier than the first sex with Sihee-ssi, so I let them have my child first. If I had had relations with Sihee-ssi first, I naturally would have made Sihee-ssi pregnant first. I hope you believe that this wasn’t a decision made because I love someone more or less.”

“…Alright, I’ll believe you.”

As soon as my words ended, Sihee’s short reply was a calm, matter-of-fact “I’ll believe you.”

Her expression as she looked at me seemed to contain many emotions besides the words ‘I believe you,’ but I didn’t pry.

“Thinking about it, I think I acted too childishly. The order, like first, second… or third, isn’t really that important, you know.”

“No. It was an important issue for Sihee-ssi too, so I also feel apologetic…”

“You don’t need to apologize. I know that Sungchul-ssi isn’t someone whose love would change based on who has a child first or not.”

“…Sihee-ssi.”

“And I have a special charm that those two women would never have, right? You mean it doesn’t imply that those two people are prettier than me, or pleased Sungchul-ssi more, leading him to make them pregnant first, right?”

“That’s correct.”

“If that’s the case, that’s fine. Anyway, if I can occupy a special space in Sungchul-ssi’s heart, I’m satisfied with just that.”

Sihee accepted reality and composed herself, even though she had lost the first child with me that she wanted so much.

Just for today, a special way of comforting her seemed necessary.
