CI Software Headquarters.
At the stroke of dawn, 6 A.M. Kang Woo started his work. It was an earlier start than usual. Naturally, work had piled up as he tried to finish punctually each day.
It had only been a few months since his marriage, he couldn’t afford to leave work late as before. If he did, he might become the kind of man who treats his wife, Se Ah, lightly.
There was a pile of approval documents on one side of his desk that he hadn’t been able to process yesterday. A sticky note was attached to the top document.
[President, Executive Director Lee Min Young called at 8 P.M. last night.]He had instructed to notify him immediately if there was an important call or a similar event in his absence.
But, after Se Ah’s declaration of divorce, the instruction had changed. Unless it was a dire emergency, do not contact him after he leaves work.
In short, he, a severe workaholic, was trying his best. Trying to win back Se Ah’s heart.
After finishing all the approval documents, he went to the break room. The smell of freshly brewed espresso was good. The fatigue accumulated from various things seemed to lessen a bit.
Before he knew it, the outside had brightened up.
Did she wake up?
Suddenly, thinking about Se Ah again, he sent a message asking if she slept well.
Returning to his office, he reviewed the documents again. The collaboration with Gcoms was on smooth sailing. By consecutively hitting the mobile game series, CI Software broke the highest revenue point since its foundation.
Whether it was technical or financial, there was no difficulty in producing PC games by themselves.
However, they had a purpose to somehow ride on Gcoms’ back. The absolute advertising effect. Collaborating with Gcoms was an opportunity to reach the top of the industry at once.
After the knock, Secretary Choi came in. After a polite bow, she started briefing today’s schedule.
Morning meeting related to the new game, a lunch meeting about the progress of the beta service, and a luncheon with highranking platform officials.
“President, Gcoms sent an invitation to the new game launch party. It will be held at the Grace Hotel on December 24th, will you be going with your wife?”
Kang Woo opened his mouth as he handed the approval document to Secretary Choi.
“Do women like parties?”
This was the first time since the establishment. Kang Woo asked a relatively personal question. Secretary Choi looked perplexed for a moment, then quickly regained her professional expression.
“I don’t know if all women are like that, but generally, I’ve heard so.”
Even if he asked, he doubted she would go, but he had no choice but to try. He couldn’t help being curious about how she looked in a light silk dress. She looked quite pretty in her wedding dress.
“Say we will attend.”
“Yes, then shall I decide on Madam’s dress and accessories after discussing with the personal shopper as before?”
Secretary Choi was a relative from her husband’s side, but that didn’t matter. As long as she did her job well. Anyway, she was not subject to annoying rumors because she was a distant relative, and she was competent.
Also, she took care of one personal matter for him. She handled buying gifts for Se Ah.
Before working at CI Software, Secretary Choi had worked as an editor in the fashion industry. Moreover, she was the only one in the company who had attended Kang Woo’s wedding, so she knew what Se Ah looked like.
“Ask my wife.”
“Yes. I may be out of line saying this…… but I think Madam will be pleased if you do so.”
Secretary Choi cautiously voiced her personal opinion.
“The dress that you chose for Madam last time seemed to suit her very well. I think she would have been very pleased with your thoughtfulness.”
With these words, Secretary Choi left the office.
“No way.” Kang Woo murmured under his breath.
Se Ah doesn’t know that I chose that dress.
Right, she had said we should break up while wearing that dress. She looked exceptionally lovely, smiling brightly in front of me.
After reminiscing over memories that were already more than 3 weeks old, Kang Woo let out a bitter smile.
The cell phone on the desk vibrated.
Anyway, Se Ah is a difficult being. Unable to know what lies underneath her surface, she’s a woman who drives me crazy.
I want to delve deeply into you. What on earth are you thinking?
((()))((()))((()))
At that time, Se Ah arrived at Hyun Sook’s hospital.
When she got to the ward, Hyun Sook seemed to have finished her meal just a moment ago.
“Mother, how are you feeling?”
She put her handbag on the tea table and approached Hyun Sook. Despite seeming weak, Hyun Sook had a bright expression.
“Good, you look fine. Why did you exhaust yourself coming here again? You were here yesterday too.”
“I was wondering if you were alright, mother. I meant to come earlier, I’m sorry.”
“Oh dear. You were probably busy getting your husband ready for work. It’s not like it’s a serious illness.”
An Indifferent Woman is the One Men Desire the Most
One-line summary: The female lead is actually cold-hearted and extremely rational. She has stage-by-stage relationships and won’t two-time, but there will always be someone who secretly likes her.
This novel has the following triggers, so if you’re sensitive to these, please don’t read:
1. The female lead has had many relationships, but she treated each one seriously and broke up properly.
It’s just that the men unilaterally pestered her incessantly. For the female lead, when she doesn’t like someone anymore, she simply doesn’t like them.
(This applies to her relationships with Male Lead 1, 2, 3, and 4 as well, but she’s loyal in each 1-on-1 relationship!)
2. In this novel, Male Lead 2 and the female lead kiss in a car, and Male Lead 1 sees it and beats up Male Lead 2.
