Bab 146: A Turning Point

The doctors had managed to sedate Gayoon and put her back to sleep. Her grandmother, Kwak Shujin, had arrived and was devastated to see her only grandchild in this condition. Junho had told her everything that had happened. 

She was shocked to find out that not only was Gayoon had been inadvertently living with her own daughter but was also dating the little girl's father! Shujin could not help but muse at the way fate had worked. Yet, she was also worried about the consequences of this encounter.

Sitting by her granddaughter's bedside, she stroked her. Gayoon's pretty face was bruised but the doctors had said that the bruises would be gone and there would be no scarring. Her stomach and chest dealt with the heavy blows. If the beating had been more severe or gone on longer, she could have died. She also broke her arm which would take a month to heal.
