“good job.”
Seol Kyung-taek seemed busy talking with distinguished guests from different countries.
‘We can discuss the meal plan later by phone.’
It was deeply moving that the person I sponsored became president. He grabbed Ha Yeon-i’s hand tightly.
“Now let’s go eat.”
“Are you eating something delicious?”
“What do you want to eat?”
“Beef!”
“Yes. Let’s go eat Korean beef.”
It’s been a while since I’ve had to oil my boat.
***
As expected, the photo taken at Seol Kyung-taek’s inauguration ceremony was posted on a news portal.
[Who is the man greeting President Seol Gyeong-taek?]
Fortunately, the number of views was not that high.
Seol Gyeong-taek became president, but it took time to unearth the treasure map. After appointing the Minister of Commerce, Industry and Energy as his own person, he will be able to obtain permission. I had already written out the business plan, so there was nothing more to take care of.
‘Now that the wedding is less than a month away.’
My heart was pounding at the thought of starting a family with Elisha. We decided to keep the newlyweds in both Korea and New York.
An agreement was reached to remodel and use the security mansion in New York.
‘Still, I’m glad a compromise came out.’
The newlyweds decided to redecorate the interior. It was fortunate that he said it was okay because he had experienced the bodyguards guarding the house when he was young.
‘Which wedding dress did I choose?’
We went around looking for wedding dresses to wear in Korea together, but decided to pick out the ones we would wear in the US and wear them.
{Choose a nice suit. Let me know if you need any help.}
So I just entrusted it to Elisha.
‘There’s no need to work hard at something you can’t do.’
Elisa had a good sense for choosing clothes, befitting a fashion brand president. Leaving that to her, I focused on my honeymoon.
‘It’s the island of Bora Bora.’
I booked a newly opened pool villa last year, and the ceiling was retractable so I could freely open and close it. At night, the stars pour from the sky, and it was said that it was also spectacular.
‘I want to go soon.’
I wanted to go on my honeymoon for a month, but unlike me, who can work anywhere on her own, Elisa had to go to work.
So, I decided to spend a week on Borabori Island and go on a family trip in the winter.
I asked if he was overdoing it because of me, and he said that’s how everyone in the US does it.
smart.
“This is Benjamin Chung.”
“Come on in.”
Benjamin Chung opened the door.
“It’s exercise time.”
He couldn’t be a groom with a belly next to Elisha, who had a perfect body. I hired a famous trainer and had been receiving PT for three months.
I was able to have the best body since I was born thanks to the perfect plan from diet management to exercise routine.
‘Although it won’t be long.’
Now, just looking at fried food automatically made my mouth water.
“Yes. I’m going down.”
Still, I have to hold on until the wedding somehow.

The wedding day is finally approaching.
In order to properly prepare, three days before the wedding, I boarded a private plane to Lanai Island. As I packed a lot of clothes and preparations to wear at the wedding, more than 10 suitcases came out.
“My son is getting married again. His ability is good.”
“It’s better than living alone and lonely.”
“If you’re lonely, why are you lonely? Our Ha-yeon is here too. Isn’t that so, Ha-yeon?”
“Yes. Dad.”
Hayeon smiled and hugged me.
“Isn’t Ha-yeon going to be independent when she grows up? How boring would it be later without a spouse?”
“That’s right. How bored would I have been without my wife?”
“Who will cook for you without you?”
“What? Am I the one who cooks?”
Honey dripped from the eyes of the two as they looked at each other. Certainly, the relationship between the two of them got better after they had more room in their lives.
‘It looks nice.’
I thought it would be nice if Elisha and I could love each other until the day we die.
Ha-yeon pulled on my collar.
“Dad, do I have to be independent?”
“No. If Hayeon doesn’t want to be independent, she doesn’t have to.”
“really?”
“then.”
“Yes. I will live with my father.”
Ha-yeon hugged me.
‘I heard you don’t even talk about things like this when you reach puberty…’
I couldn’t imagine Ha-yeon tickling me. It sticks like gum and doesn’t want to come off.
“Is Elisha unnie going to be a mother now?”
“okay.”
“really?”
“then.”
“Hee hee. I’m going to have a pretty mother now too.”
The child laughed bashfully.
“Ha-yeon, would it be okay for your father to play a lot with Elisa?”
“Please play with me too.”
“of course.”
“Then it’s fine.”
Surprisingly, Ha-yeon had no objection to her stepmother. There were things that he brought up after getting to know Elisa first, but he said that he was envious when he saw the mothers of the other children coming to pick them up from school.
‘Elisa is very busy, so I won’t be able to pick her up often, but…’
Still, I thought I would go once.
“But won’t our clothes stand out too much?”
My parents matched me with a nice improved hanbok. It was a stylishly improved hanbok for summer, and it was easy to move while still retaining the feel of hanbok.
“Everyone will like it.”
“Really? In Korea, I can wear hanbok, but I’m worried because I’m in a foreign country…”
“It’s okay. I told Elisa in advance that it’s Korean-style culture.”
William Carver, who will become a craftsman, readily agreed to wear hanbok at a wedding on Lanai Island. Elisa happily agreed, saying that it would be a special wedding if she wore traditional Korean clothes.
A flight attendant knocked on the door.
“(yes.)”
“(Please fasten your seat belt as we will be landing soon.)”
“(All right.)”
The blue sea of Lanai Island came into view outside the window. The bay came into view, with lush islands surrounding the sea in the shape of a horseshoe.
‘Is that a wedding hall?’
The white sandy beach was very nice. It seemed like we could have a romantic wedding in the middle of nature.
‘It’s a wedding surrounded by many people in a place where you can see the blue sea…’
It was exactly where Elisa wanted to propose. However, the sea of Lanai Island was so blue that it could not be compared to that of New York.
“Wow. The color is pretty.”
“Isn’t it nice?”
“yes.”
Even my parents couldn’t take their eyes off the window.
‘It must be a little hot.’
I need to apply deodorant hard.

As soon as I arrived at the airport, I went straight to my accommodation. Alec Carver picked us up in a big van.
“(Everyone had a hard time coming a long way.)”
“They said they had a lot of trouble coming this far.”
Seo Kang-jae briefly translated.
Benjamin came too, because I wanted to show them my wedding day. In addition, I invited everyone who works closely with me, including Fred Balman, Triton Green, and Paige Olsen.
Of course, Jaffrey was by my side.
The plane carrying them was due to arrive two days later.
‘All of them are busy people, so I can’t take away a few days.’
Alec Carver’s expression looked more relaxed.
“(Elisa is busy preparing for the wedding, so I inevitably came to meet her. I hope you don’t feel bad.)”
“(You’re welcome. Thank you for coming to meet me in person.)”
They smiled and shook hands lightly.
“(Not too long ago, I thought it would be nice if Elisa got married quickly, but now that she’s getting married, I feel sad.)”
“We are also very sad to hear that Jaegu is getting married.”
“(Does your in-laws do the same?)”
“You’ll get used to it quickly. How cute Ha-yeon was when she was born.”
Ha-yeon hid behind me with a blushing face.
“(Ha-yeon is cute. Elisa also praised her for being such a nice kid.)”
“(Are you Elisa’s sister?)”
“(Can you speak English?)”
Hayeon nodded slowly.
“(You’re smart.)”
“(no.)”
The child hid behind me again. Alec Carver seemed particularly shy.
“(That’s the lodging.)”
An antique European-style building surrounded by palm trees appeared. The accommodations, which are separated by a staircase, are properly separated to protect each other’s privacy, but at the same time harmonize as a whole.
The building hidden among the jungle-like trees looked like ancient ruins.
‘awesome.’
I thought I knew why William Carver asked me to get married here.
“(Because you must have been tired from coming a long way, I will guide you to your lodging right away.)”
Not only has a pretty face, but also a good heart.
The lodgings with panoramic windows overlooked the deep blue sea, green fields, and white sandy beaches at a glance.
“(I don’t know if you’ll like the room.)”
“very good.”
Father smiled and replied.
It was a wonderful room like a scene from a movie.
“(Mr. Jaegu goes with me, and the rest. You can stay comfortably. This is a booklet with room service menu, so you can read it and order freely.)”
I gave the booklet he gave to my parents. It was a stiff Korean booklet, but it looked like it was made on purpose for my parents.
It was meticulous care.
“If you’re hungry, you order a meal and eat it. I’ll meet Elisa for a while.”
“okay.”
“I’m going to meet Elisa, so I’ll do it in a cool way.”
My mother tidied up my clothes.
“It’s okay. My son is handsome.”
“I’ll be back.”
I left my room with Alec Carver and walked along the outdoor pool. As I was walking along the pool decorated with gorgeous palm trees, I thought of Elisa.
‘It would be better if I walked with Elisa-san…’
At sunset, I wanted to walk this place alone with her. I remembered the micro bikini she was wearing and my face flushed.
We arrived in front of the greenhouse. Inside the large glass greenhouse, Elisa was picking flowers with a serious expression. Even among the flowers, the first thing that caught my eye was Elisa.
‘Elisa is beautiful today too.’
smart. Alec Carver knocked on the greenhouse door. He met Elisa’s eyes and opened the door.
He said hello to Elisa.
“(Miss Elisa!)”
“(Mr. Jaegu!)”
She smiled and ran towards me. The long flowing dress clung to her body, and her figure was flawless.
‘I did well to exercise hard.’
It was worth the effort to decorate her wedding perfectly.
“(You look prettier today.)”
“(Oh, Jaegoo-ssi, too. It seems that Jaegoo’s body shape has changed a bit?)”
Elisa’s hand rested on my stomach.
“(It was specially prepared for the wedding.)”
“(really?)”
“(How hard I tried not to faint next to Elisa.)”
“(Ahahahaha. Mr. Jaegu is still cool.)”
She kissed my lips lightly. I really liked the natural skinship unique to Americans.
