How to Have a Baby Secretly

A brief silence passed between them.

• What?

It was Kang Jinwook who spoke first.

• What do you mean, "come"? Where to?

“I ordered chicken to eat with you. Spicy soy sauce, seasoned, fried... How could I eat all of this by myself? I could just come over for a bit and eat together.”

What a childish excuse. To suggest meeting under the pretense of eating. And how could he say "how could I eat all this by myself?" There were so many people here, even without Kang Jinwook—Secretary Baek or the staff, there were dozens of them.

Sunwoo, even as he spoke, realized how ridiculous it sounded. He couldn’t hide his embarrassment and started rubbing his cheek with his bare hand.

Kang Jinwook seemed equally dumbfounded, and only his breathing could be heard through the phone. That made Sunwoo feel even more embarrassed. Unable to stand the silence, Sunwoo finally added one more thing.

“Really, I’ll just eat the chicken and come back. You haven’t eaten yet, right?”

If Kang Jinwook had gone straight to the hotel from the airport, he probably hadn’t had time to eat yet. Of course, there would be fancier and better restaurants at the hotel, or he could even order room service, but Sunwoo deliberately ignored that fact.

• Hah... Choi Sunwoo.

Kang Jinwook sighed deeply and called Sunwoo’s name. Sunwoo rubbed his cheek again, feeling even more embarrassed than before.

That was when he heard a rustling sound. Soon after, a familiar savory smell wafted toward him. Without thinking, Sunwoo turned his head in the direction of the smell.@@novelbin@@

Secretary Baek was holding a large bag. Sunwoo, having already guessed its contents from the scent, jumped up from the sofa.

“I’ll be right there.”

• Choi Sunwoo.

• I know. I’ve sent a car, so get in. Do you think I’m just going to come without knowing where you are?

• Yes, take that car and come. I’ll be waiting.

• 28th floor. The door will open.
