Hyun Woo didn’t even care to remember his name.
“If you could please get to the point.”
“Then I’ll get straight to the point. Regarding the recently admitted patient, Cha Na Jung, I heard you filed a criminal complaint against her. I’d like to request you withdraw it.”
As expected, his prediction was spot on.
“Why?”
Hyun Woo’s response was icy, his gaze dry and detached.
“Simply put, Cha Na Jung is a VVIP patient. From what I’ve heard, her actions weren’t intentional. Your measures seem a bit excessive, Professor Seo.”
Hyun Woo, who detested this kind of handling of matters, couldn’t quite grasp why this person was negotiating instead of the involved party.
“Then I’ll also be straightforward.”
He looked directly into the eyes of the man who claimed to be the chairman.
“A hospital isn’t a hotel where you make a profit by selling beds, is it?”

His icy gaze made even the higher-ups flinch. The chairman couldn’t even respond, let alone rebut.
“Even if that’s the case, our busy NS residents faced more mental and physical damage due to admitting a patient without symptoms. How will you take responsibility for that?”
Hyun Woo asked in a low, dry voice.
“If you say throwing cups and hurling a vase-like weapon at a doctor wasn’t intentional, then it seems to me, Mr. Chairman, that you don’t understand the dictionary definition of ‘intentional.'”
“Professor Seo.”
“And as I continue talking, I’m getting increasingly angry…”
Hyun Woo spoke evenly, adjusting the collar of his lab coat.
“What if one of my residents had been seriously injured by that vase, becoming unable to ever practice medicine again?”
“That didn’t happen, though…”
“It was a situation that could have easily happened, and that’s why it shouldn’t be taken lightly.”

Regardless of age or rank, he never hesitated to speak his mind if he believed he was right.
“Doctors also have the right to be protected. Who would trust a hospital and perform medical duties under such murderous work conditions?”
“…”
“I hope that the ethos of Je Empire Hospital isn’t just about making money. That would be too disappointing for me.”
With those words, Hyun Woo briskly stood up and left.
Watching his departure, the acting chairman, Byung Ryul, actually looked relieved as Hyun Woo had acted as expected.
Byung Ryul then made a phone call, detailing the encounter with Hyun Woo.
“It seems he has no intention of leniency.”
[Dash]Just as I thought. That’s good.“Considering she’s a stalker, it was a situation bound to be addressed at some point.”

“Not at all. He’s quite sturdy.”
[Dash]Keep an eye on him for me, please. And calm down the hospital director.“Don’t worry, everything’s under control here. Take care of yourself.”
[Dash]Things aren’t going as I planned.“Just take your time.”
After this secretive conversation, they hung up.
NS Department.
After an early dinner, residents, excluding Se Hun and Sori, gathered around the table.
The scene of their brief free time was especially different today as they reviewed the unusually eventful day.

Then, Sori entered the department carrying a cafe carrier in both hands.
“I’m treating everyone to make up for the trouble I caused you all.”
It was a tumultuous day, starting with a scolding from Director Park in the morning and then being collectively summoned by Hyun Woo.
“Thanks, Yu Sol. I’ll enjoy this,” said Eun Seok, picking a coffee first, while Jong Woo next to him picked up a coffee, giving a thumbs up.
“Sorry for stepping in unnecessarily, seniors.”
“No need to apologize, Yu Sol. You took on the responsibility.”
“Yeah. We were lucky it didn’t turn worse. Someone could have been seriously hurt.”
Eun Seok and Jong Woo comforted Sori, who finally felt relieved inside.
“I didn’t expect Professor Seo to kick out Cha Na Jung so quickly. He’s really cold and scary at times like this, right?”
Gi Tae, rummaging through the carrier for his coffee, commented.
“It’s surprising to see Director Park, who always just laughed, getting serious. Never knew he was on the hospital director’s side.”

Eun Seok shuddered, recalling Director Park’s scolding that morning.
“I was really shocked when Professor Seo openly criticized Director Park for pushing responsibilities onto residents.”
“Yeah, Professor Seo doesn’t care about anyone’s opinion, total respect.”
Amidst the praises for Hyun Woo, Sori couldn’t figure out why she felt proud. Her lips kept curling up in a smile.
“But is Professor Seo okay? I saw him going to the chairman’s office earlier.”
“What? Really?”
“He looked really upset…”
Jong Woo said gravely, leaning his chin on his hand.
“Well, it’s Professor Seo. Why worry?”
Though surprised, no one seemed overly concerned. However, knowing that Cha Na Jung had been criminally charged, Sori was internally shocked.

The chairman and Director Park had dared to pressure Professor Seo.
“I’ll step out for some fresh air. You guys take a break. I might visit the research lab to check on him.”
Restless Sori left the department, intending to rush to the research lab. But halfway there, she slowed down and changed direction, wanting to meet Cha Na Jung herself.
Hyun Woo’s Research Lab.
After completing surgery, Hyun Woo sat on the sofa, only to be interrupted by an abrupt knock and Sori barging in before he could respond.
“Professor!”
Though he frowned at her lack of manners, his expression softened upon realizing it was Sori.
“Seems like this place has become as comfortable as your own home?”
She visited so often, breezing in and out.
“Why did you go to the chairman’s office?”

“You rushed here for that?”
“Did Cha Na Jung report something to the chairman’s office?”
“Sit down first.”
“Why so rushed?”
Her frantic questioning was uncharacteristic of Sori.
“You don’t need to worry about it.”
“But I’m concerned.”
Sori, smaller and younger than me, worrying about me. That thought tickled Hyun Woo a bit today.
Last night, when she was checking his back, it was genuinely ticklish, and he had to restrain himself several times from asking her to stop.
“Good timing. I forgot to tell you. I have a symposium scheduled this evening.”
“Ah, you must be really busy today, Professor…”

He intended to tell her she didn’t need to come to the lab later, but Sori’s expression, as if she had already anticipated this, slightly irked him.
He leaned forward from the sofa’s backrest, getting closer to Sori’s face.
“If you show that much happiness, I might just throw a bunch of papers at you and lock you up here.”
“…”
Strangely, looking at Sori’s face seemed to alleviate the heaviness in his neck from the fatigue he had been feeling.
A mischievous mood struck him.
“Do you prefer the lab or home?”
“…”
“Answer carefully.”
It seemed as if her freedom for the evening depended on her response.

He playfully threw this tricky question at her and leaned back on the sofa, relaxing.
To savor her pondering expression, he lifted his stern gaze but…
“I like being with the Professor.”
Her bold response seemed to catch him off guard, betraying his usually controlled expression.
That was an unexpected answer, to say the least.
When yandere male lead believes she loves him — but she never did
“How dare you!”
“How dare you make me love you, only to cast me aside as nothing more than a friend?!?
“I will never accept that.”
“I will never let you return to him.”
“Even if I have to burn myself to ashes.”
“Even if I must shatter my purity, my dignity, my very soul.”
“I will never let you escape me!”
This was the first novel that introduced me to the matriarchal genre. I’ve read it three times already!
At first, the male lead despised the female lead. Later, he misunderstood that she liked him, so he condescendingly and reluctantly reciprocated her feelings.
Then, he suddenly discovered that she was kind to everyone in the same way, and there was already someone she cherished in her heart, and that person was not him.
The male lead couldn’t believe it, he became angry and crazy. He was determined to capture her body and heart by any means necessary.
Synopsis:
