Chapter 08 For several days now, Seo-ah had been clinging to the front gate of Dong-ha’s house, pleading with them. But there was no way Dong-ha’s family would welcome her visits. After the funeral, she had clung to her in-laws and demanded answers about what had happened to Wonjeon Electronics, but all she received in return were curses and violence. When she eventually asked about Kim Gi-young, her mother-in-law had even thrown Seo-ah out onto the street. “Ma’am, please open the…-

Chapter 07 This was separate from the fact that Seo-ah followed Se-yeon like a biological older sister. This was a story that might have something to do with her father-in-law—or perhaps Dong-ha himself. But if that were the case, it was far too serious a matter. Even so, Seo-ah tried to maintain her composure despite how convincing the story sounded. “How did you… know about this rumor, Unni? Does the company you work for have some connection to Taeyu Group?” At Seo-ah’s…

One corner of Se-yeon’s lips curled upward slightly. “I didn’t think you’d go through with it, but you actually did?” “What… what do you mean?” “Hmm…” Se-yeon crossed her arms and leaned back against the chair, gently swinging her crossed leg. As she did, she quietly studied Seo-ah’s flushed face. Seo-ah, too, looked at her cousin with an unfamiliar feeling. What could Unni be thinking right now? Although Se-yeon’s gaze was fixed on her, it felt as though…

Chapter 5 “Pardon? Who are you?” At a glance, he was a remarkably handsome man. Yet to Tae-kyung’s eyes, he looked endlessly dangerous. Of course, Tae-kyung had no intention of doing anything to him. He had simply acted on instinct, thinking the man might hurt Seo-ah. Seriously, why do I keep sticking my nose into things when I barely even know her? As Tae-kyung loosened his grip on Gi-young’s arm, Gi-young, who had been staring at him strangely, immediately rushed toward…

Chapter 4 It was when Seo-ah followed the two of them back into the funeral hall. The moment Gi-young entered Room 2, Dong-ha’s family rushed toward him. At that moment, Dong-ha’s paternal grandmother came hobbling out on her unsteady legs and grabbed him fiercely by the collar. “You’re neither a man nor a woman, and you dare crawl in here and bring bad luck?!” The strange words that spilled from the grandmother’s mouth froze Seo-ah in place. Her mother-in-law also looked…

Chapter 3 The woman frowned as though she had a terrible headache. Without even realizing that she had collided with something, she merely blinked her half-closed eyes and mumbled. “Room 2…….” Tae-kyung quietly looked down at Seo-ah. Normally, he would have either quickly left the scene or irritably pushed the woman away. Had he suddenly developed hearing loss? The woman’s faintly trembling voice sounded distant and hazy, as though it were coming from underwater. He had…

Chapter 2 “Ah, seriously, what is wrong with you?!” Jung Hee-jun, Tae-kyung’s personal secretary, finally managed to grab and stop the tall man who had been striding out of the funeral room with long, purposeful steps. Standing well over 180 centimeters tall, with a solid, athletic build honed through exercise, he wore a perfectly fitted black suit, while his naturally styled leaf-cut hair framed his face. Beneath it were long, deep-set eyes that gave him a somewhat seductive air. The…

Chapter 1 “What do you mean by that?” Seo-ah hurriedly grabbed the collar of her husband, Lee Dong-ha, who had finished getting ready to go out. “Don’t trust Jin Se-yeon.” Dong-ha, who had been checking his appearance in front of the mirror, had suddenly brought up something strange. What Seo-ah wanted to know was about her father’s accident. Four months ago, just two months after his daughter’s wedding, Seo-ah’s father had taken his own life. It was something she simply…

Chapter 11 According to the deductions from their wages, it would take a full fifty years. No one had ever survived that long working at the icehouse. “Your Highness! Please, have mercy just this once!” The maidservants repeatedly slammed their foreheads against the floor, begging for forgiveness. However, Seoheon closed the ledger and turned away coldly. “Your Highness! Your Highness!” The maidservants’ screams gradually faded into the distance as soldiers dragged them…-

Chapter 10 However, they could not resist. ‘I heard His Highness punished General Maeng because of that Jae-in.’ ‘If we get on her bad side, who knows what might happen to us?’ The maidservants reluctantly picked up their chopsticks again. But even that did not last long. They managed to force down a few more pieces, but soon they stopped, gagging. “Why did you stop?” “Urgh… I-I can’t eat any more, Jae-in.” At the Jae-in’s calm question, one of the…
