Epilogue

Their wedding plan was proceeding smoothly. A wedding dress for Yiyoung, and a tuxedo for Muyeol, had arrived from Seoul. Muyeol had prepared the hotel, restaurant, and the round trip flight tickets for everyone. The couple only invited the people who cared about them genuinely: Madam Choi, Sangsu and Honghee, and Dr. Park Jaehee. It was a small wedding, and the ceremony was set to take place tomorrow.

“How do you feel?” Yiyoung asked brightly.

Muyeol only responded with a smile.

“I feel like I've become a married woman already. It's just a dress, but it's making my heart flutter,” Yiyoung's eyes focused on the wedding dress.

Muyeol hugged her from behind. “I thought you were going to pick a fancier dress.”

“I was going to, but this one caught my eye.”

He lowered his head and kissed her ear. “I think it'll look great on you, too.”

“Yeah, I know.” Yiyoung shrugged, her chin raised. “I have good taste.”

Muyeol wrapped both his arms around her.

“But, you know…” Yiyoung began.

“Yeah?”

“What's going to happen with the position of CEO?”

“Mr. Cha will probably take over again.”

“Are you really going to be fine with that? It was your only purpose in life.”

“It's okay.”

“Really?”

Yiyoung turned around, looking straight at him. “You didn't give up because of me, right?”

“Through you, I realized that it was not the ultimate purpose in my life. If I become the CEO, I would be really busy for the next few years. I know it would be difficult for me to keep my promise of having dinner with you everyday, and I wouldn't have any free weekends either. Of course, I would try my best not to break the promise, but…” Muyeol continued with a frown, “it'll take me a few years to get to that point.”

“But you'll still be the CEO one day, right?” Yiyoung asked.

“I'm going to establish a foundation.”

“Huh?”

“My place in the company has gotten much bigger, so whoever becomes the CEO, they'll always be conscious of me because, as you said, the position is already mine. So with my current status, I'm thinking of disseminating the new CEO's workload.”

“Got it.” Yiyoung immediately understood his intentions.

“It's not just me who works. I hire people and pay them to work so I don't have to work by myself. I always focus on the incentives and the benefit of the workers so I don't lose any talented workers. So, to not lose a special person like you, I should treat you with my best attitude as well,” he said to her in the past.

“So you're going to recruit talented people from now,” Yiyoung whispered.

“Yeah, that'll distribute the workload. And the CEO would just be responsible for managing them.”

Yiyoung smiled. “Yesterday, I heard from Jaehee that there are a lot of changes taking place at the hospital.”

“S hospital is known as the best hospital in South Korea, so accordingly, it should be equipped with better systems,” Muyeol said nonchalantly.

The ER was a place where doctors usually tried to avoid since it meant fighting against death for their patients everyday, right at the front line. There weren't enough doctors there, due to the insufficient budget for the team, which caused more work for the current doctors and made them suffer from the heavy stress.

The hospital director believed that the only way to prove his capability was by increasing the hospital's profit to the maximum. So, departments which didn't rake in much profit were not properly supported by the hospital, and the ER was one of those departments.

But Muyeol introduced a change. He had said, “We're running the hospital under the S group to help the society, not because we want profits out of it. And we don't expect our doctors to sacrifice themselves. The S group is willing to financially support the hospital system at any time, and we have the ability to improve the working conditions of our medical staff.”

After Muyeol's declaration, several things were changed, the first one being in the ER. The security system was improved significantly after the incident Yiyoung had to suffer from as a part of the medical staff, and there were more people working in the ER now, having been provided with additional support in order to reduce the amount of work for each staff member.

“It was so we didn't have to let our talented staff go. We can't let you go to any other hospital,” Muyeol explained.

Yiyoung grinned brightly. “I appreciate it.”

“I'm only doing what I was supposed to do before.”

“Still. There are many people who don't do what they're supposed to do. It's a good thing you're not one of them. It's pretty cool, too.”

Muyeol chuckled and softly kissed her on the lips.

“Kiss me harder,” Yiyoung whined like a child.

Muyeol immediately granted that request.
