"Seriously going to work today? Are you really healthy?" Rindi asked who was sitting on the bed and looking at Stefano back who was struggling in front of the mirror. Stefano's faint smile was seen from the reflection of the glass then his head nodded.
Stefano turned around and then walked towards Rindi. Fano sat next to Rindi and pulled Rindi's hand to face him.
"Don't worry I'm perfectly healthy. Are you ready to go to college yourself again?" Stefano asked Rindi.
"I'm always ready to go to campus," said Rindi then smiled sweetly.
Fano smiled and then gently stroked Rindi's hair. Fano then held Rindi's cheek gently, the one in her cheek caught Fano's hand which was on her cheek. Rindi just kept smiling sweetly making Fano excited herself.
"Thanks for still coming back to me," Fano said quietly.
Rindi nodded her head and then hugged Fano tightly.
"Now I can do this as I please right? You're my husband right?" Asked Rindi.
Stefano laughed at Rindi's silly question, He then nodded his head, and Rindi warmly

Hyu Jin threw the small souvenir that was on the table in Stefano's studio room. Just as the ceramic souvenir hit Fano's temple, Stefano reflexively held his sore temple. He grimaced and blood was dripping from the result of the souvenir breaking when it landed on Fano's temple.
"What are you doing? She is just a tool to get you free from your scandal. Why are you now admitting her as a wife," said Hyu Jin angrily and loudly in front of Fano.
Stefano did not immediately answer Hyu Jin's question. Stefano walked to the small drawer beside the sofa and pulled out a few sheets of tissue. Stefano pressed the tissue to his temple. Fano was still wincing in pain, but Fano wasn't angry at all. Stefano sighed and then walked towards Hyu Jin now.
"You'd better go home now. I still have work to do," said Fano quietly.
Hyu Jin looked angrily at Fano, since the first this man in front of him had never been angry. Especially in women. But from his voice, it was very clear that Stefano didn't like Hyu Jin's presence now.
Hyu Jin snorted in annoyance then walked away leaving Fano. Not only that, Hyu Jin even dropped by to drop a flower vase on the corner shelf near the door. Since then Hyu Jin has never changed even once. Fano sighed while shaking his head in surprise at Hyu Jin's behavior.
Stefano leaned his head back on the sofa. He had finished cleaning up the souvenir and vase shards earlier. Fano has also treated the wound on his temple, although it still hurts. Fano closed his eyes, He was thinking about how to prevent Hyu Jin from interfering with his marriage with Rindi. Given Hyu Jin's temperament and nature, Stefano is afraid that something will happen to Rindi later.
A knock on the door from outside made Stefano open his eyes again.
"Who?"
"Me, Hyung."
's voice Namsuya heard from outside. Stefano's brow furrowed in confusion. It's not usually the former leader of his former group visits him without the others in the studio during working hours. Stefano stood up and walked towards the door to open the door for Namsuya.

Rindi frowned as she approached her husband. Her hand reached out and grabbed Stefano's temple which was plastered on.
"Why is this? Wasn't it fine to leave earlier?" Rindi asked then looked at Stefano asking for an explanation.
Fano smiled then caught Rindi's hand. He led his wife walking toward the sofa. Fano and Rindi sat next to each other, Fano leaned his head on Rindi's shoulder. The significant difference in height made Fano a little troubled.
"There was a knock on the door, a little wound so plaster was given," Stefano said lying.
Rindi chuckled then rubbed her husband's mane slowly.
"Why don't you be careful bro? Luckily it's not too bad. Did you have dinner?" Rindi asked then.
Fano's head nodded, his ears listening to Rindi's next questions and stories. But now his mind is going all over the place remembering Namsuya's earlier. Stefano then sat properly and looked at Rindi. Rindi's forehead once again showed the stairs because she was confused.
"Why?" Asked Rindi.
Fano didn't answer right away, his hand then reached out to hold Rindi's cheek. Fano stroked her gently, making Rindi even more confused.
"What's wrong, Chan?" Asked Rindi again.
Fano was silent and hugged his wife tightly. Fano buried his head on Rindi's shoulder. Fano didn't make any sound at all to answer Rindi's question. Although with a confused and wondering expression on his mind. Rindi stroked Fano's mane, maybe Stefano just needed to relax without having to explain his situation, which Rindi believed.
In the morning Rindi was ready together with Fano who was already wearing his jacket.
"Want me to take you to campus?" Fano asked while smoothing Rindi's bangs.
Rindi looked up at Fano then nodded her head quickly. Today she happened to have to leave early.
"Ok! let's go," said Fano again then took Rindi out of the apartment.
Rindi waved her hand towards Fano's car which was moving away. Rindi smiled and then entered the campus area. Rindi had time to say hello to several friends in her major who passed her, Rindi glanced at her watch for a moment.
"Nana must not have arrived yet," Rindi muttered and then walked into the campus building.

Stefano snorted in annoyance, Fano slammed the studio door loudly. Fano plopped down on the sofa hard. His face was clear and he looked very angry. Fano then took his cell phone from his pocket and was seen calling someone.
Now Fano and Jay are sitting together in a cafe. Fano drank his americano and looked around then sighed. Jay furrowed his brows then patted Fano's hand lightly. Fano's gaze was on Jay now.
"Why did you ask me to meet here?" Jay asked.
Fano looked at Jay then took a deep breath. Fano took out a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to Jay. With a confused expression, Jay took the paper and then read it carefully.
Jay looked at Fano with an expression of disbelief. Jay then pointed at the paper with a mixed expression.
"How is this contract still there? Didn't you and Rindi already burn it?" Jay asked then.
Fano sighed again, his hand then took the paper again.
"Bang Hyu Sik Pd nim still keeps it. In the past, it was Pd nim who suggested a contract marriage, so he kept a copy of this contract as well. Now he threatens me with this," Fano explained.
Jay's eyes widened. He was shocked beyond what he was hearing now. Jay then drank his juice to shake off his shock.
"Threatening you how? Then you will leave Rindi because of that threat? So because of this, you called me? Is that your plan?" Jay asked repeatedly while looking at Fano.
Now it was the cold man's turn to roll his eyes. Fano then snorted in annoyance.
"Are you asking or being interrogated? And why do you think so bad of me, Hyung."
Fano was a little annoyed by Jay's question. What he thought about was not the threat from the CEO but rather Rindi's reaction if Rindi found out about this later. Instead, Fano was afraid that Rindi would leave him, not him who would leave Rindi.
Jay winked at Stefano's expression. Now he felt wrong to ask. Jay then hit Fano's arm lightly.
"Miane...I was surprised that the questions that crossed my mind immediately came out. But it seems my guess was wrong, huh?" Jay said then.
Fano looked at Jay then nodded in agreement. A second later Fano took a deep breath.
"In fact, I'm afraid Rindi knows about this threat, Hyung. She will leave me considering his character who always relents to help me get out of trouble," said Fano later.
Jay, who had just realized that, nodded his head in understanding. He would also definitely think the same thing Fano would think if he was in Fano's position right now. Jay was also silent about what solution Fano should take, and so Rindi wouldn't know about all of this.
