Another Wife
Chapter 20: Joy's

Joy was alone again in her black and dark room. This atmosphere doesn't fit him. The beautiful woman drowned her face in the pillow. Then try shouting loudly. Wiped out all his burdens.

Upset, sad, angry. That feeling piled up in his heart. Joy just wants her life to be happy. He wants to be happy with the people he loves.

Park Joy loves Han Seungwoo earnestly. The first time they met 2 years ago. For the first time, she met her future husband who had been betrothed since childhood. The man was tall, almost pale white, then had a firm face line. Although his eyes look cold but his lips can make his heart warm.

It's like a romantic story. Joy is saved by him and falls in love at first sight.

Joy is the only daughter of a wealthy family. She looks beautiful, rich, glamorous. As all standards of happiness revolve around him. Yet not many people knew, she was just a lonely spoiled girl.

The beautiful woman is troubled in her academic field. He is not good at sports or art. She was like a beautiful but perishable porcelain doll, not very useful, not talented, not smart. All those flaws made his parents keep looking after him.

He was rushed abroad to continue his education, Joy became a mockery if he was in school before. His cousins entered because of his high grades, and he entered because of the influence of his parents.

A rich stupid girl. The nickname stuck in his brain.

That stupid girl is so vengeful. He wanted to show, anyone would envy him someday. So Joy improved her appearance. At least she should be pretty or rich, or the wife of someone influential. Joy wanted to please both her parents and followed the match.

Once he graduated as a scholar, both his parents died in an airplane crash. And for the first time for Joy to take care of her parents' legacy business. Again the same thing happened to him. He became a joke again.

Park Joy feels sorry for not fixing her brain.

That afternoon when there was a problem with his company, with the brashness of his subordinates berated him because of poor performance. Joy was considered unable to be a good boss, even the harsh words were spoken presumptuously. His parents' good name was even trampled in front of his face.

The cowardly girl was crying. Regretting. Then sad. He hated himself for not being so bad, in his mind at that time it was better to just die. Joy has made her parents' good name ruined. They must be very sorry to have a daughter like her.

The tall man who happened to be visiting walked towards them with a small man beside him. Her eyes looked surprised for a moment, then her hands helped Joy to stand up. The girl still shook from crying. The tall man stared sinisterly at the subordinates, his lips smiling obliquely.

"How does a dog disrespect the master who feeds it?"

"You! How insolent of me!" As the man's emotions rose, the middle-aged man pointed at Joy right in the face, freaking her out. "Take a look at this bitch. If he can't take care of the company why would he support it? That damn Mr. Park gave his company to a fool like you. I'm gonna have to cut employee pay because of you"

"Excuse me old man. You're ignoring me? You blind? Look who you pointed at" Seungwoo said again.

"You don't interfere"

Seungwoo beat him to the ground. The employees who saw him stood up in surprise. Joy does too, she doesn't even think that the man she doesn't know punched her employees.

"How can a director like you disrespect a CEO?" Seungwoo stomped his neck down, keeping the man on his knees.

"I'll report you to the police"

"Let's take the legal route" Seungwoo took off his leg. He gave me his card. The old man was a little surprised, but his determination did not subside.

"Suckers like you will rot in jail"

"I'll make sure you rot there. Even your whole family. Don't expect you to be buried properly" Seungwoo confirmed Joy's messy hair, lifting her chin to face forward. "You don't know who he is? You can't even respect her, I'm so sad that my future wife was unfairly trampled. Starting today anyone who wants to leave here please come out. Don't expect to come back here again"

The murky voice sounded clear, they were wondering about the person claiming to be their future boss. Joy looked at the man beside her in surprise. So is he Han Seungwoo? The man she was betrothed to? His confused face turned somewhat calm, although he did not quite understand what would happen if all his employees were to leave here simultaneously. But unexpectedly the staff was still standing before him.

The director was surprised. Nothing coming out meant no one was taking his side. They don't want to risk going forward. He is also confused now. Although stupid but the company that Joy has now is quite large, if until Han Seungwoo intervenes then he is finished.

"Sorry I was presumptuous for interfering in your business dealings. But after I see you're angry not because my future wife's job isn't right. He was just being too careful of everyone. Including you. Then you're mad at him. Make losses and reduce the salaries of other employees. What are you using that money for?" The employees were again surprised. "I already have the proof. So let's take the legal route"

The man threw away his pride. He knelt down in front of Seungwoo. The corruption was too much so he asked for forgiveness.

"OKAY. We forgive. In exchange you will be fired and accept this as your severance pay. Get your desk done" Seungwoo pulled out a check. As soon as he saw the number on the piece of paper, the director began to look down before picking it up. He rushed to his desk and left. The amount given to him was almost 3 times the severance he should have received, so he could not refuse it.

As soon as everything was done Han Seungwoo urged Joy to go to his room first. The beautiful woman who looked messy was a little confused by the situation. After all the tension and stress he had felt all along made his mind foggy.

Wooseok was outside, leaving the two of them inside. Han Seungwoo told someone to bring Joy a cup of tea. He still sobbed in shame and sadness. His pride was shattered in front of his own staff. If Han Seungwoo doesn't come at the right time he'll probably jump out of that office window.

"Thank you" he bowed.

"It's nice to meet you, Park Joy"

"Sorry our meeting started badly"

"Other times I won't let just anyone step on you" Seungwoo said, his interlocutor staring at him. "If you're incapable and troubled, show at least you don't seem to suffer with their insistence"

"Surely you already know about me. A fool like me won't be able to continue what you've built all his life"

"I don't care if you're stupid or not. What matters now is to restore your pride. Then rearrange your company, you're not too lousy. Those insects that make you look bad" Seungwoo smiled lightly. He seems to have to support the girl in front of him or he looks terrible.

"I actually still need the director to help me" Joy rubbed her cheek. Her tears were dry, she looked at Seungwoo with relief. Someone is supporting him.

"I'll help you. So don't look like that again. My future wife must be firm and firm"

Joy smiled shyly, the man in front of her who seemed stiff in choosing the words made her smile. Maybe Seungwoo meant to comfort her, those words sound a little strange but also true. She must be strong and look smart to be a worthy candidate for Han Seungwoo.

"Thank you Han Seungwoo-ssi"

................

From his room he could see a car entering the front yard of the main house. The six people came out from there with a messy look. Joy was only sure that they had just massacred people.

The people below smiled normally without remorse even though they were full of blood. His gaze was centered on Seungwoo. The man smiled broadly at his friends. The warm and firm man he knew turned out to look even more handsome if he smiled like that. Joy knows that man may not love her. But he's willing to wait, after all he's his wife. Joy will wait for Seungwoo to return his feelings.

Joy to the outside. Welcoming Seungwoo in the front room. The man was a little surprised and felt strange. Maybe she's just afraid that Joy's afraid of her blood-soaked. But no, the woman even stepped forward and smiled happily.

"Home home, Woo?" The others immediately stepped aside to clean themselves up. Seungyoun approached Sunghoon who was at the dining table. Left the two men there.

"Yes. Don't come any closer, you'll get dirty later" Seungwoo removed his attributes.

"Here I help" Joy helped him take off his bulletproof vest. "You hungry? Want to eat something? I took a cooking class a month ago"

"No. It's not time for lunch yet, after all, there's a chef for the meal" Seungwoo replied with a slight indifference.

"But I wanted to cook my husband once" Joy tried to hug his hand, a habit that was hard to break. Seungwoo held Joy's hand, stopping her.

"If you want to play cooking not in my house" Although his heart hurts but Joy just pursed her lips.
