Mixed emotions surged through her. The excitement of finally becoming a company employee was overshadowed by the anticipation of seeing the man again.
Yeon-woo started her new employee training.
At the training center located in Yongin, she adapted to her new life, and her relationships with her colleagues grew stronger as they shared meals and time together.
“Have you all heard about the president? I can’t even imagine what kind of person he is,” someone said during a meal break after morning training. Yeon-woo, munching on spicy stir-fried pork, lifted her head.
“Me too. If only I knew his age at least.”
“Is it really necessary to hide it to this extent? What if we accidentally meet him and make a mistake in front of him?”
“Unlikely. They say he has a huge scar on his face. You’ll recognize him immediately.”
The trainees were highly curious about the president, known only through rumors.
Yeon-woo felt the same.
A scar on his face didn’t matter to her, but she worried about making a mistake in front of him, just as she did in front of that man.

“Will Yeon-woo be the one to know?”
Then, her colleague Lee Kyung-ho, whom she had quickly become close with, turned to her and said, “Yeon-woo is going into the president’s secretarial office.”
All eyes turned to Yeon-woo. She awkwardly smiled with her chopsticks in her mouth.
“Right, Yeon-woo is directly joining as a secretary. You won’t have department rotation training like us.”
“You’ll probably know the president the best among us. Do share some interesting stories.”
“Sure.”
At that time, she co
“Do you really have a scar on your face?”
The trainees were more nervous and expectant than usual.
Yeon-woo was, of course, even more so.
Noticing Yeon-woo’s pale face, Kyung-ho comforted her by patting her shoulder.

“Don’t tremble too much. There are seniors in the secretarial office, they won’t let anything bad happen. Just keep quiet and it’ll be fine.”
But to her surprise, the man who appeared was the man from that day.
‘It can’t be…’
The aura he emitted was distinctive, but she never imagined that the interviewer, the man, was actually Ki Tae-han, the president.
Tae-han felt like a towering mountain, as always.
He wore a perfectly fitting suit, and his superior physique and intense gaze were reminiscent of a model. His powerful gaze alone was enough to make everyone freeze.
But the first thing Tae-han said upon looking around the room was ominous.
“There’s an employee here I didn’t choose.”
Everyone gasped and looked around. Yeon-woo bit her lip uncomfortably.
It seemed like he was talking about her.

She was the only one who had answered the question about her specialty poorly that day.
From that day, Yeon-woo’s future was filled with an uncertain light.
Not dark, not bright, but a very long tunnel with no end in sight.
“My name is Seo Yeon-woo. I look forward to working with you.”
After the training, Yeon-woo’s first day at work began.
Luckily, she didn’t have to face Tae-han directly very often.
In the secretarial office, which also oversaw management analysis, she was busy enough with document preparation, and Tae-han was often out on external visits and business trips.
However, over time, her feelings changed; she began to take pride in him.
The skeptical opinions and bizarre rumors in various media about Tae-han were all misguided.
Ki Tae-han deserved respect.

Under his leadership, Taesung Biologics showed a steep growth curve, and his aggressive business philosophy frequently made headlines.
He alone planted seeds in barren land, watered them, nurtured them, and made them sprout.
This process was remarkably swift, and he firmly established himself at the helm of the group.
“Yeon-woo, you sorted the files wrong. Fix them before the president notices.”
“I’m sorry.”
Supporting such a prominent figure was no easy task.
From achieving goals beyond her experience to aligning file order to his standards, the requirements were high.
Additionally, due to his whiskey allergy, she had to be extra careful when organizing events involving alcohol.
But Yeon-woo was not discouraged.
She felt a sense of loyalty to the amazing company Tae-han had built.

“Good afternoon, Mr. President.”
It wasn’t that she never saw Tae-han after joining the company.
On days he came to the office, all the employees in the secretarial office stood up to greet him.
But that afternoon was different; only Yeon-woo was in the secretarial office. Tae-han returned an hour earlier than scheduled.
Usually, a staff member would stay in the office for emergencies during general meetings, and that day it happened to be Yeon-woo.
She greeted him with a nervous expression, feeling his indifferent gaze.
Tae-han, who never acknowledged the greetings of his employees, was expected to enter his office without a word today as well.
“What do you like?”
For the first time, a response came from Tae-han.
Ex-husband Wants Reconciliation
One-line summary: Chasing the wife to the crematorium (making an effort to attract someone who has become indifferent), the female lead doesn’t look back, the second male lead takes the position.
Intro:
To repay the kindness of the older generation, Su Mu crossed into a female-dominated world and became a live-in daughter-in-law of the Yan family, single-handedly saving the Yan family from fire and water.
But her husband, Yan Jiyue, the eldest son of the Yan family, treated her with sarcasm and never showed her a good face.
It wasn’t until after Su Mu’s death that this pampered and arrogant young master shed a few fake tears and pretended to want to die for love.
This life’s kindness was enough. If there was a next life, she would definitely kick Yan Jiyue away.
Who knew that the heavens would be so kind as to allow her to be reborn, returning to the time when she had just married into the Yan family.
Su Mu glanced at the Yan eldest son, who still spoke coldly to her, and threw a divorce letter in front of him.
“Let’s divorce!”
***
Yan Jiyue never imagined that he would be reborn. He happily went to find Su Mu, wanting to make up for the mistakes he had made in his ignorant youth.
Wasn’t the reason the heavens allowed him to be reborn to let him reconcile with Su Mu?
But when he pushed open the door to Su Mu’s room, the person lying on the bed was another man.
Su Mu’s personal attendant, Xie Yi.
Yan Jiyue hated him so much that his teeth itched. In front of Su Mu, Xie Yi was a gentle and considerate whisperer of sweet nothings, but in reality, he was vicious-hearted and deliberately sabotaged their husband and wife relationship.
In the previous life, it was he who secretly hid in Su Mu’s coffin and committed suicide, stealing a step ahead of him to be buried with Su Mu.
Yan Jiyue’s eyes were filled with hatred as he cursed, “What kind of thing are you? Your background is lowly, what right do you have to occupy Su Mu?”
Xie Yi looked at the sleeping Su Mu and no longer pretended to be a whisperer of sweet nothings.
He proudly stuck out his belly, “I have the right because my belly is capable of giving the Wife-master a daughter.”
***
Yan Jiyue was consumed with jealousy. He spread rumors that Xie Yi had once been branded with the mark of a “harlot” on his chest.
But on the night Xie Yi cut off the flesh bearing that mark, Su Mu suddenly realized something was amiss.
“How did you know the exact moment I was poisoned? And why did you show up a month early?”
Xie Yi remained silent, blood from his wound soaking through his robes. His sapphire eyes brimmed with anguish – or was it just a flawless act?
Between a once-arrogant husband now seeking redemption, and a gentle soul willing to die for her – who truly held the darkest secrets? And could it be that Su Mu and Yan Jiyue weren’t the only ones given a second chance at life…?
