Van Gogh Reborn! - Chapter 113
Michelle Platini’s eyes shook like a broken washing machine.
“What do you mean? You didn’t disturb anything?”
Ko Hun relieved Michelle, who desperately kept her smile.
“It’s okay. Is it a secret?”
“Huh? What?”
Ko Hun alternated between Michelle and Henry.
Michelle wriggled her face at the pure gaze.
She tried to manage her facial expression and tilted her head.
“You two.”
“It’s Work? I…. I don’t know what Hun is talking about.”
Michelle Platini turned her head toward Henry Marceau.
Henry Marceau opened his mouth at the signal to do something and not stay still.
“Hey, brat.”
Ko Hun turned his head.
“I don’t know what you’re thinking, but shut up.”
“Are you two dating?”
“No!” cried Henry and Michelle at the same time.
“What’s wrong with it?”
Ko Hun couldn’t understand Henry Marceau and Michelle Platini, who reacted like it was a sin for two adults to be dating.
Also, he didn’t want to forcefully dig into the circumstances that others wanted to hide.
“Don’t worry. I won’t tell anyone.”
“I told you there is nothing like that!” cried Henry Marceau.
Henry Marceau wanted to convince the other side about the situation somehow.
“She’s just here to cook dinner for me since there’s no one. Do you understand?”
“Why? If you were going to give the employees a vacation, shouldn’t you have given it by dividing them into alternate days? There was no reason to give more than 20 employees a vacation on the same day.”
Henry Marceau was taken aback by Ko Hun’s question.
The boy raised his palm as he realized that the more the conversation continued, the more it felt like he pressed them.
“Calm down for now. You don’t have to lie. I won’t tell anyone if you want to hide it.”
“No!”
Henry Marceau desperately sought a reason.
He had to send all the employees out and create a situation in which Michelle Platini had no choice but to visit alone.
Henry Marceau approached KoHun.
Holding the boy’s arms, he spoke more seriously than ever.
“…keep it a secret.”
“Yes, don’t worry.”
Henry Marceau calmly began to recite what came to his mind.
“Michelle owes me a debt. She’s paying back by preparing dinner because she feels sorry that there are so many things to pay me back.”
Michelle looked at her lover like a bug.
Ko Hun, who thought the two were meeting, was confused by Henry Marceau’s attitude, which was so serious.
“Debt?”
Henry Marceau nodded.
“Yes.”
After thinking deeply for a while, Henry Marceau opened his mouth.
“She was addicted to gambling. Lost the money she saved, sold her house, slept in the streets, and lost her mind!”
Michelle Platini hit Henry Marceau on the back of his head.
Moments later, Ko Hun, Henry Marceau, and Michelle Platini sat at a table in the reception room of Marceau’s mansion.
After a while of silence.
Henry Marceau once again attempted to deceive Ko Hun.
“Did you see her hitting me earlier? That’s how much she wants to hide it. So you, too.”
“Shut up.”
Michelle Platini interrupted Henry Marceau.
She pressed down her throbbing forehead to organize her thoughts and told Ko Hun the truth.
“Yeah, We’re seeing each other. We’re keeping it a secret for some reason.”
“Okay, don’t worry. Everyone has a secret.”
Michelle sighed deeply.
“Yes, thank you.”
Henry Marceau and Michelle Platini were left alone in the mansion after Arsene came and took Ko Hun.
They were speechless for a while.
“I can’t believe it. What the hell were you thinking? It wouldn’t have happened if you had contacted me in advance.”
“I was going to.”
Henry’s lips twitched.
He just completely forgot the idea of contacting her because he heard something unexpected from Ko Hun.
“What are you going to do? How would you explain if Hun says to someone by mistake?”
Michelle was about to pour out her disappointment, but at that moment her cell phone rang.
The name on the screen was ‘mother’.
Michelle took the index finger to her lips and warned Henry as she answered the phone.
“Yes, ma.”
– Where are you?
“Work.”
– You’re always busy every time I have a day off. Did you eat? Blueberry tart is delicious.
“I’m going to eat now.”
– Are you very busy?
“Why?”
– I met the boy yesterday. The boy you told about last time, right? I heard that he draws well like Henry.
“Oh? Yes, he does.”
– How come there’s such a kid? Do you know how cute that little kid was when he explained how delicious everything he eats was? It’s like seeing Henry when he was young.
“Really?”
– Yeah. By the way, I saw articles about Henry and there were a lot of curses. There are really a lot of people who don’t have much to do?
“I know.”
– Please protect him. Is there anyone who Henry can depend on like you? Even if he talks a little roughly, you must look after him like a sister.
“What, sister?”
– Then, like a family, right? If you think about it, it’s rare for a family like this, isn’t it?
“…Yes. It’s not like a normal family.”
– Hey, don’t be so mean to him. Since we’re a family to Henry, he’ll be disappointed if he hears you, he’s rather soft.
Michelle glared at Henry.
She was upset with her mom.
Her mom always says this, and hopes for her not to upset Henry, whom she thinks of as her own son.
– Oh, my God. Look at me. I guess I’ve been holding on too long. Then my dear daughter, work hard. I love you.
“Yes.”
– I love you
“I love you…”
Michelle covered her face after talking to Sherry Gado on the phone.
When Michelle was in her adolescence, she was upset because her mother seemed to love Henry Marceau more than her own daughter.
Whenever her mom asked her to play with Henry, she was annoyed for no reason.
It wasn’t until she entered the same high school and faced Henry Marceau.
After spending time in high school and university with a grudge, they recognized each other’s abilities and became a business partner, and they started dating for four years.
Michelle, who was agonizing, looked up.
“I can’t.”
It was something that would happen one day.
She thought she couldn’t shoulder the guilt if she hid it anymore.
She wanted to tell her mother, but she didn’t really have the courage to think about how her mother would react, who thought of Henry as her own son.
“I don’t like it…”
Henry murmured then.
Michelle turned her head.
“What do you mean?”
“ I was told ‘it’s strange, but I don’t hate you’.”
Michelle blinked.
“Did you tell ?”
Obviously, it wasn’t a normal relationship.
Henry cared about his nanny Sherry Gado, who had raised him since he was a child, as did Sherry Gado.
But strictly speaking, there was no relationship other than master and servant.
The only thing that feels strange was the years they’ve spent so far.
Michelle thought that if she went and talked to her mom Sherry, she might take this situation well.
She was relieved to hear that Henry came forward and spoke.
“What was the reply?.”
“I think it’s strange, but I don’t hate you.”
“Really!”
Michelle jumped from her seat.
Michelle remembered the words her mother used to say – always be like a sister, be like a family, poor child, good boy.
She never imagined that her mother, who said that to the point of being labeled as Henry’s mother, would come out like that.
There was no better news for Michelle, who was carrying the burden in her heart.
“Why didn’t you tell me? Then I wouldn’t have hid it while I’m on the phone.”
“What?”
Henry looked up.
“What do you mean,”
The two of them just looked at each other.
“You told Mom about us.”
“I didn’t.”
Michelle frowned.
“Then what about the thing you said earlier? It’s strange, but I don’t hate you.”
“Oh.”
Henry Marceau came to his senses.
“I was told earlier, ‘It’s a little strange, but it’s not like I hate you’. He doesn’t hate me. He finally started to see me.”
“What?”
“Ko Hun.”
“Die!”
Michelle threw a cushion in Henry Marceau’s face.

At the airport, I greeted the production team.
“’Then I look forward to your kind cooperation.”
“Leave it to me.”
Holding my hands, Nolan grinned and shook them.
Thanks to the time spent, we have decided on the direction of the concept art of ‘The Strange Castle’, so we don’t have to stay in the U.S.
We can video call and can talk about what we need at any time, so we decided to work in our respective locations.
I wonder what props they will make and what kind of set they will make for ‘The Strange Castle’ with the concept art I drew, but I decided to endure it a little more because I can meet them when the movie is completed.
“Oh, and,”
Nolan clapped his hands as if he remembered something.
“Can you take a video of when you are working on concept art?”
“A video?”
“Yes, preferably from various angles.”
“If you’re busy, you don’t have to.”
“What are you going to use it for?”
“Well, it’s just a rough idea,” Nathan said,
“Hun, don’t you think the video of you working will be good publicity for the movie?”
“Is that good?”
“It’s going to be very interesting.”
“CEO Bang Tae, can you do it as a favor?”
“Yes. It’s not that difficult. It’s not going to be hard because I was going to prepare it for Hun’s broadcast anyway.”
Nolan bowed down and faced me at eye level.
I don’t know what was going on, but he just stared at me without saying anything.
“In the past…..”
“Yes.”
“I’ve worked with a young child.”
There must have been a separate reason for not looking at a young child like me with strange eyes.
It wouldn’t be easy to do something like that thinking about my age.
“Who is it?”
“Bae Dobin, maybe a little younger than you.”
It’s a name I’ve never heard of.
“He’s the conductor of the Berlin Philharmonic, and I was really surprised when I worked with him.”
Nolan stroked my head.
“But when I look at you, I’m surprised in a different way. We’ve only been together for a month and I can see that you’re growing. You have to. You still have a lot to learn. I had a great time. Nice meeting you, Little Van Gogh,”
Nolan shook his head.
“Artist Ko Hun.”
His smile is always wonderful.
“Nice meeting you, too. Director Nolan.”

The explanation for those with questions about why the last name of Michelle and Sherry was different.
The French government prohibits the addition of a husband’s last name when renewing a woman’s ID. The French government website explains that women can legally retain their last names and must use their original last names in all official documents. In addition, women who are married are said they could use either their last name or their husband’s last name, and men can also add their wife’s last names. It also informs that the custom of taking the husband’s last name remains.
