Tae-han’s brother was Vice-Chairman Ki Tae-wook. Although their relationship was known to be strained, calling him an enemy was surprising.

“Watch your words.”

As expected, Tae-han frowned and warned her.

Caught off guard, Min-hee hesitantly touched his arm.

“Ah, right. I spoke carelessly. Sorry.”

Trying to lighten the mood, Min-hee turned her attention to Yeon-woo.

“And who is this?”

Yeon-woo, as Tae-han’s secretary, cautiously greeted, aware of his watchful eyes.

“Hello. I am Secretary Seo Yeon-woo, working for CEO Ki Tae-han.”

“Ah, so it’s you? Nice to meet you.”

The response was again puzzling, suggesting familiarity with Yeon-woo.

The greetings continued.

People still crowded around Tae-han, each wanting to greet him.

Watching from a distance, Yeon-woo felt a ripple of indistinct emotions.

An invisible wall seemed to separate her from Tae-han’s world.

Finally, as the crowd dispersed, Yeon-woo approa
Yeon-woo’s statement wasn’t wrong, so Tae-han didn’t say more.

Then, an announcement echoed through the venue, signaling the dinner’s imminent start. Waiters in uniform ushered them to their assigned seats. Yeon-woo, looking around, whispered to Tae-han, “I’ll be back. Just going to the restroom.”

Wanting to touch up her makeup before the dinner, Yeon-woo walked to the restroom, the heels of her shoes clicking. She sat in the powder room, feeling the heat in her feet.

‘My feet hurt.’

Taking off her shoes revealed red, swollen heels, not accustomed to the rarely worn style and prolonged standing.

Freeing her toes, Yeon-woo took a moment to observe her surroundings.

‘Such a place exists.’

Even the restroom resembled a space from a movie, akin to a luxurious European hotel or a fancy sample house. After a quick makeup touch-up, Yeon-woo slipped her feet back into the shoes.

“Oh!”

At the entrance, she unexpectedly met Min-hee.

Surprised, Yeon-woo nodded first, as befitting Tae-han’s employee. But she hurried to leave, feeling the pain shift from her feet to her heart.

“Wait a moment, Secretary Seo.”

Min-hee’s voice halted her. Turning back, Yeon-woo saw Min-hee approaching.

“Can we talk?”

“…What is it?”

“It’s nothing serious. Just something I want to confirm.”

Min-hee approached with a slight smile.

“Sorry if this seems rude on first meeting, but you and Ki, I mean, our CEO Ki, aren’t in a special relationship, right?”

Yeon-woo, puzzled by the intent, just looked at her.

Up close, Min-hee was doll-like in beauty, exuding a refined aura, making it hard for Yeon-woo to keep looking at her.

A storm seemed to brew in Yeon-woo’s heart.

“CEO Ki sometimes mentioned you. You know he’s not the type to show interest in others.”

“What about me did he mention?”

“Just occasional work talk.”

That would be natural for a subordinate, but Yeon-woo’s expression remained uncontrolled. Tae-han wasn’t known for discussing employees outside work.

“You didn’t know?”

Reading Yeon-woo’s expression, Min-hee shrugged.

“That’s why everyone was curious. What kind of employee is it that makes CEO Ki behave this way.”

“It doesn’t seem like he said anything special.”

“Not really. But just mentioning means something for Ki Tae-han.”

Yeon-woo flinched, a crease forming on her forehead.

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.

The female lead calls the police and sends both Male Lead 1 and 2 to the police station! Male Lead 1 begs the female lead not to break up with him.

3. Male Lead 1 has a gentle appearance but an obsessive personality.

Male Lead 2 has a delicate and soft appearance, slightly green tea-like (two-faced).

Male Lead 3 is a youthful college student and a smart person who has secretly liked the female lead for a long time.

Male Lead 4 is the female lead’s father’s special assistant, a business elite with deep, hidden thoughts.

4. At the beginning of this novel, the female lead has already broken up with Male Lead 1 (Chapter 4) and gotten back together with Male Lead 2 (ex-boyfriend).

5. Enter with caution if you have triggers!!!

You’re bound to regret it if you skip this novel. Read the review & spoiler to find out what you might be missing!
