Since, it was taking some time for James to come back, Mirae adjusted her clothes and walked towards James. "Who is it, Mr. James?" She asked while standing behind him and almost gasping after seeing Yeonjun and Jenny together.
"You should..."
Just as James was about to speak, Jenny stepped inside the house and pulled Mirae by her hand. "How dare you?" She said with anger felt in her voice and visible on her face.
"How dare you seduce my uncle and even try to get married to him, huh?" Jenny tightly held Mirae's wrist and began to squish it.
"Ahh! Ahh! Let go of me! You are hurting me..." As Mirae began to wince, James removed Mirae's hand from Jenny's hold. Yeonjun immediately stepped forward and pulled Jenny towards his side. "Let's not use violence, honey!" He remarked and Jenny scoffed.
"Violence? If what I'm doing is considered as violence then what about her? How can a girl of her status even marry my uncle?"
Jenny retorted and again held Mirae's hand, thereby trying to drag her out of the house.
"SONG JENNY! STOP IT!" James yelled and Jenny abruptly stopped. She looked at her uncle who already had his hand in the air trying to slap her. "Don't make me hit you infront of your husband. Let go of Mirae!" As Jenny became afraid to see her uncle's anger, she loosened the hold around Mirae's hand.
James pulled Mirae towards him and lightly rubbed her hand as if he was comforting her. The two of them had an eye contact. And while looking into Mirae's eyes, James spoke "I love Eun Mirae! And I will love her till the day I die!"
Yeonjun, Jenny and Mirae herself were stunned by James' words. Mirae looked at James with a emotional yet shocked expression on her face whereas both Jenny and Yeonjun were just completely taken aback by his words.
Jenny noticed her uncle. He never had looked at a woman with such fondness in his eyes. Forget about that, he never got close to any woman. Seeing him confess in such a beautiful way, Jenny was jealous of Mirae.
Eventhough, she and Yeonjun were married, Yeonjun had never confessed in such a beautiful manner. He did confess that he loved her but not like her uncle, James. And seeing her uncle like that, Jenny was familiar to the fact that James would never let go of Mirae.
But... what about Mirae?
She glanced at Mirae who was also having the same expression as her and Yeonjun but there were tears escaping from her eyes. As Jenny witnessed this, a smile came on her lips and she said "Guess I'm not one to judge..." She lightly patted Mirae's shoulder and continued with a smile "I hope you two would keep loving one another like this."
James observed his niece and he smiled to see her smile. He lifted his hand and patted her head "Thank you, Jenny! I hope you two would always be happy!" He gave her a side hug and patted on Yeonjun's shoulder while telling him to take good care of his niece.
And the furious moment in the house was brought to a cool like this.
The delivery arrived and James invited his niece and her husband to eat with them. They declined but Mirae insisted and they all had a meal together.
Yeonjun smiled as he saw Mirae smiling and having her food. He was glad that Mirae didn't end up with himself or Hyunmin. He was glad to see Mirae by James' side and smiling like never before.

"Umm... James, where are you taking me?" Eun Mirae who was blindfolded was slowly being taken by James inside a house. He held her hand and assisted her in walking through the doorstep and then till the table.
When he entered inside, he signaled everyone to be quiet and carefully took her to the round table which was decorated beautifully with balloons and flowers. It was actually difficult to set all of this alone but to propose to Mirae, James was willing to sacrifice everything.
He lightly slapped Mirae's hand which was stealthily reaching up to the blindfold to remove it. "I told you not to open it yet. Remove it at the count of 3..."
He signalled everyone to be ready.
"2"
"1. Open now!"
