Had Yun Hee ever met Su Cheol in the past?
Da Hyun couldn’t recall any instance of Yun Hee having met Su Cheol, despite trying to remember several times.
“She spoke as if she had met my father.”
Yun Hee only mocked, suggesting Su Cheol must surely know about Min Hyuk’s affair.
Even after regaining her memory, Da Hyun’s feelings towards Yun Hee and Su Cheol remained unchanged. She still disliked them.
The only thing that changed after regaining her memory was her feelings towards Min Hyuk.
While memoryless, she had firmly believed in him, but now she knew his words were all lies.
After marrying, Min Hyuk had shown her endless love and care as a husband. He approached her with certainty, making her feel truly loved.
He seemed to know her so well, understanding her tastes. She couldn’t believe she had never doubted him.
“Why is he doing this to me?”
The dreams she had when she couldn’t remember turned out to be glimpses of her past with him.
Only then did Da Hyun understand the significance of the dreams where she was being dragged into darkness.
They were warnings to wake up.
She should have taken them seriously, but she had believed his words that dreams were just dreams.
She realized how much she had liked and depended on Min Hyuk.
“I’ve fallen for Min Hyuk again.”
Da Hyun struggled to shake off her melancholic feelings.
“I’ll love you twice, no, three, four times more, Joy. So please don’t be sick.”
For her child, she forced herself to think positively, gently touching her belly and closing her eyes.
“It’s just the hormonal changes making me tired. For you, Joy, I can endure this morning sickness. I’ll overcome it all.”
She quickly justified her earlier thought of not feeling joyful.
Was it because her belly hadn’t grown yet?
If it weren’t for the morning sickness, she might not believe there was life inside her.
She hadn’t chosen the baby’s nickname with him and didn’t plan to tell him.
What would Min Hyuk do if he found out Yun Hee’s child was his? He would surely be shocked at first, but what would he do next?
She hadn’t believed Yun Hee initially, but the positive pregnancy test and ultrasound image made her accept the truth.
Seeing the ultrasound image Yun Hee showed her had made it hard to breathe, as if her heart was disappearing.
It was still the same now. Just being still made breathing difficult.
Da Hyun clenched her fist and pounded her chest.
He wouldn’t abandon Yun Hee’s child, his own flesh and blood.
An unborn child and one already in the world.
Which one would he choose?
Could he abandon Yun Hee’s child and choose her and their baby?
“What am I thinking?”
Realizing the nature of her thoughts, Da Hyun felt a shiver down her spine.
She was appalled at herself for weighing the children against each other.
“Da Hyun, you’re losing it. What are you thinking right now?”
After regaining her memory, everything became a mess.
Da Hyun fought back the urge to cry, tilting her head back, but her vision had already begun to blur.
Maybe it would have been easier to tell Min Hyuk that her memory had returned.
What should she do now? She was at a loss about how to proceed.
Eventually, Da Hyun couldn’t hold back her tears any longer.
One thing was certain: she couldn’t smile and feel excited around him like before.
She needed to slowly sort out her feelings towards him.
The next day[Dash]
Min Hyuk must have been considerate, as Da Hyun was able to sleep alone in the bedroom last night.
Fortunately, today Min Hyuk went to work, giving her some breathing space.
However, being alone made her feel more restless and depressed. She was afraid to go out because of the bleeding.
She was scared that impulsively going outside might harm the baby.
So Da Hyun contacted Yul. She had asked Yul yesterday if she could come over this morning, and Yul had kindly agreed to come over until then.
Unable to leave the bed, Da Hyun asked the housekeeper to guide Yul to the bedroom when she arrived.
Being with energetic Yul seemed like it would allow her to forget everything for a while.
Da Hyun practiced pulling up her lips into a smile in front of Yul.
She didn’t want Yul to notice her gloominess, as Yul always had a knack for sensing her mood.
Knock-knock[Dash]
The housekeeper’s voice was heard as she entered.
It seemed like Yul had arrived.
“Madam, she’s here.”
Sitting propped against the bed’s headboard, Da Hyun first gave Yul a nod, then turned to the housekeeper.
“Thank you, ma’am.”
“Not at all, madam. I’ll bring some tea.”
“Thank you.”
Da Hyun offered a slight smile to the housekeeper.
As soon as the housekeeper left the room, Yul put down the shopping bags she was holding.
“Is it really okay to just barge into a couple’s bedroom like this?”
“I’m a bit scared to move because of the bleeding. Thanks for coming, Yul.”
Yul, who hadn’t heard the full story from Da Hyun, widened her eyes in shock at the mention of bleeding.
“Bleeding? What about the baby?”
Male lead fell into her trap — and shattered when she walked away
This is also on my reread list!
This one is a slow burn, but when it burns, it burns hard.
Definitely worth a read, y’all!
The story follows a thousand-year-old seductive spirit who, on a bet, sets out to charm the male lead—a once-promising but unfortunate cultivator.
But just when she succeeds in making him fall for her, she heartlessly leaves, driving him to madness.
Determined to find her at all costs, he captures her, keeping her by his side no matter what, even if she hates him.
I love this kind of trope—I enjoy watching the male lead suffer in agony.
The ending drags a bit with unnecessary filler, but that’s fine.
As long as I enjoy the beginning, I’m good.
