Chapter 60: The Second Son
Lee Mihyun was not someone who often showed her emotions.
She was always calm, quiet, composed—and she knew well that being overly emotional never helped anything. From childhood, she had been an even-tempered, well-behaved girl, and her career as a news anchor had suited her perfectly.
No matter the situation, she never got worked up or flustered. She kept her composure and addressed others with poised elegance.
But lately... her emotions weren’t so easy to control.
And the cause of that was her second son—Ha Giyeon.
Ever since entering high school, he’d started changing. He not only spoke to her confidently—he even contradicted her. He went so far as to say they could abandon him if they wanted.
She had never felt so many emotions toward Ha Giyeon before. The child she always found irritating and pathetic was now throwing her off balance. Making her angry.
At one point, she wondered—had he started to look down on her?
So when Ha Ilwoo scolded the boy, she held back and simply observed.
But she was wrong.
Giyeon stared Ilwoo straight in the eye and answered, plain as day:
“I don’t know what you’re talking about... I don’t hang out with those kinds of kids.”
