Chapter 16 Kim Ju-ha was looking at her with an unreadable expression. Ji Cheon-myeong glanced briefly in Ju-ha’s direction before speaking to Raine. “I was worried about you going home alone this late at night, so I followed you out. Looks like my timing was perfect.” “…….” “I don’t know what everyone sees in that freeloader-looking bastard that they’re making such a fuss over.” After saying something rather harsh, Cheon-myeong smiled mischievously at…-

Chapter 15 The moment Raine heard the amount she had to pay, she felt as though her mind went completely blank. What… the hell… By this point, she was starting to wonder if she had already fallen into Hayden’s scheme. Shouldn’t they have told me about something like this beforehand? Her first thought was that it was unfair. Yet for some reason, she found it difficult to actually say that out loud. In Raine’s eyes, Eden was beginning to look like a devil. Eden continued…-

Chapter 14 Raine's words made Cheon-myeong burst out laughing. “Ah, Ms. Raine. Hear me out until the end.” Cheon-myeong smiled brightly. “It’s true that we’re going to sell it, but we’re not selling it just yet. We’re currently in the marketing stage, so we’re going to start with show business.” “Show business?” “Yes. We’re going to produce a recorded program with a small studio audience.” Cheon-myeong explained that through the program, they would…-

Chapter 13 “You’re someone precious to me.” How many women could hear those words from a handsome, well-groomed man wearing a gentle smile without their hearts fluttering? Startled, Raine covered her mouth with her hand. “…Ahem.” Seeing her reaction, Hayden lightly cleared his throat. His brow furrowed slightly, making it clear that he wasn’t particularly pleased with Raine’s reaction. “See that red line over there?” The place he pointed to had a straight red line…-

Chapter 12 “…….” Raine was at a loss for words and lowered her head. Even though she had been shaking with betrayal and resentment toward Ju-ha, she felt pathetic for still bringing him up without meaning to. Cheon-myeong spoke in a slightly lowered voice, stopping Hayden. “Hayden.” Hayden raised his voice a little more. “Why? Am I supposed to just let this go? We need to get rid of that pushover side of her that comes out without her realizing it.” The atmosphere…-

Chapter 11 “Surely not….” Raine looked up at Hayden, who was standing a couple of steps away from her. He seemed at least a head taller than she was. “Did you climb a ten-minute uphill road in five minutes?” “…….” Hayden merely caught his breath instead of answering. But to Raine, that looked like confirmation. “…Why?” Raine had no idea why he had run all the way up here. As far as she was concerned, running uphill in this heat was absolutely insane. “Why…-

Chapter 10 Inside Raine’s bag were her old wallet, her cell phone, an unfamiliar, thick blue envelope, and Ju-ha’s profile photo. Raine realized that the photo of Ju-ha, which she had forgotten about after putting it in the inner pocket of her bag, was still there. Moreover, her eyes widened at the unexpected state of the photograph. Ju-ha’s picture had been covered in scribbles with a black permanent marker. His eyebrows had been redrawn to make him look like a villain, grotesque…-

Chapter 9 Raine was startled. The front door of this house was the kind of door that someone could easily break down if they really put their mind to it. At first glance, the reason Hayden was being so obsessive seemed to be the contract. He had clearly said there was still something they needed to discuss regarding it. Even if we did see each other naked after a one-night stand, this is still too much. When she thought about the mysterious contract, she felt as though she should open the…-

Chapter 8 The sight of herself made Raine sigh first. “Ugh, even I can see what a mess I am.” Naturally, Eden, the man she had spent the previous night with, came to mind. No matter how much she thought about it, his behavior remained a mystery to Raine. “How could that man possibly want to sleep with me?” With a self-deprecating laugh mixed with a sigh, she pinched the large rolls of flesh protruding from her body. “Ju-ha ran away from me….” Remembering once again why…-

Chapter 7 Eden mercilessly cut off Raine's protest. “You may have felt that way. But it was the worst choice you could have made. And you would have caused an incredible amount of trouble for everyone else. How could you even think of jumping from there? Is there anyone in this world more precious than yourself?” There was genuine concern for her in Eden's words. But when he used the word trouble in such a sharp tone, Raine shrank into herself, her shoulders drooping. Eden tapped his…-
