Commanding the chief seat on the sofa, his legs crossed and pressing down heavily. Even without looking this way, just sitting there emitted a heavy aura of intimidation.
Myung Ok felt the tension in the air and proceeded.
“Entering and leaving freely in the absence of the owner, Vice President, your personality has changed quite a bit?”
As Myung Ok approached, Tae Sang finally raised his chin leisurely. His black eyes were frighteningly calm.
“I wonder who should be saying that. Touching my things in my absence.”
“…….”
Did she spill everything to Tae Sang? She thought he was foolish when he started talking about feelings, but she didn’t expect her to confess to Tae Sang this quickly.
Myung Ok placed her handbag and coffee on the desk and sat in an office chair. She could have sat on the sofa, but she wanted to keep as much distance from Tae Sang as possible.
“If you’re talking about Hope’s Home….”
She turned on the computer while speaking calmly.
“I just stopped by for some foundation work.”
“Do you think such a simple excuse will work?”
“…….”
“Unlikely.”
Tae Sang slowly stood up, his hand in his pocket.
“As of today, you are relieved of your position at the foundation. Do not interfere with foundation matters anymore.”
He walked over with a chilling calmness, a coldness on his face that she had never seen before.
Myung Ok defiantly narrowed her eyes.
“Who decided that?”
“It seems you’ve forgotten, but I am the chairman of the Hyo Sung Foundation.”
“…….”
“A position like that can be eliminated anytime if I wish.”
Myung Ok internally ground her teeth.
She already regretted losing the chairman position and had not expected to be ousted from the foundation like this.
Her jaw clenched involuntarily as Tae Sang’s heavy voice reached her ears.
“I can also open the foundation’s warehouse anytime.”
“What are you talking about?”
Myung Ok’s lips twitched momentarily in shock.
There’s no way Tae Sang could know. She was sure she had handled everything perfectly. Her eyes wavered with uncertainty.
“I’ve checked everything. The two galleries in Jongno District.”
“……!”
“You’ve been acquiring a lot of artworks in the name of the foundation. The stated purpose was to address cultural blind spots due to income disparities, to hold free exhibitions.”
His monotone voice sounded like a verdict in a courtroom. Myung Ok forced strength into her trembling eyes.
“Yes, that’s right. Hyo Sung Gallery. I’ve been too busy lately but was planning to open it soon.”
“I thought you might say that, so I’ve taken care of it for you.”
“……What?”
“All the art pieces found in the gallery have been processed for donation to the National Museum of Art.”
“Hey, Cha Tae Sang!”
Myung Ok shouted, standing up abruptly.
Those art pieces were collected over the years, intending to pass them to Su Bin. She had added her own money to the foundation’s funds to acquire them bit by bit.
Having her storeroom emptied in one go, Myung Ok trembled with clenched fists.
“Are you doing this because I touched that girl? How I’ve collected all these……!”
“That girl.”
Tae Sang cut her off, pressing down on the desk with his palm.
“If you knew how crazy I am about that ‘girl,’ you wouldn’t dare say that.”
“What is she to you…”
“Try touching her again.”
“…….”
“Then I will sweep away everything you have.”
Tae Sang tilted his head with a threatening air. His tense jaw, high shoulders, all exuded an overpowering presence.
“Cha Tae Sang, have you completely lost your mind?”
“…….”
Tae Sang just smiled.
His eyes, normally devoid of emotion, were now filled with a disturbing excitement.
For someone like Tae Sang, who had always been emotionless, the change was frightening. His face showed a deep possessiveness for what was his.
Defeated, Myung Ok sank back into her chair with a hollow laugh. It seemed she had touched something she should not have.
“Just so you know, all the secretaries have been replaced.”
As he moved towards the door, he paused to add this.
“The secretaries… what do you mean?”
“They’ve all been replaced.”
“What right do you have to do that!”
“It wasn’t me who replaced them. Apparently, they’ve all submitted their resignations today, maybe they got scouted by some good places.”
“…….”
“The new replacements are all from the vice president’s office. So, don’t even think about eavesdropping like a rat, and stay away from my woman.”
My Arch-enemy Sealed My Memory and Said That He is My Husband
This is an incredibly captivating story that you absolutely shouldn’t miss! I’ll give a brief introduction here, and below you’ll find a detailed synopsis of the plot.
The female lead is a fierce and powerful demon king. The male lead is a once-in-a-millennium celestial lord, admired by the entire cultivation world.
They are equally matched, legendary rivals who have battled for centuries.
In the final duel, the female lead is gravely injured. The male lead saves her, seals her memories, and hides her true identity. He tells her that he is her fiancé. His entire life has been flawless—except for the one thing he never expected, never controlled, and never wanted to control: falling for his greatest enemy. She is his inner demon, his obsession.
When the female lead regains her memories, she is furious at his deception.
She makes his life a living hell.
And somehow, the male lead—possibly a total masochist—doesn’t mind at all. In fact, he’s happy she’s paying attention to him.
Yep, we’re back to my favorite trope: male lead suffering. If you love this kind of story, jump into the pit with me now!!!
Intro
Dong Xia lost her memory.
Her handsome and extremely powerful fiancé Li Qing comforted her: “It’s okay if you can’t remember. I’ll always be with you.”
Everyone thought Dong Xia’s ancestors must have burned incense to get such a perfect fiancé. He was the number one person in the immortal realm, yet he remained chaste and only loved her.
…
The day before marrying her fiancé, Dong Xia finally remembered everything.
She wasn’t suffering from memory loss at all.
Her arch-enemy had made her fake her death, destroyed her cultivation, replaced her memories, and pretended to be her deeply in love fiancé.
No wonder he said, “It’s okay if you can’t remember”!
Dong Xia laughed coldly as she pulled out her long knife: Li Qing, prepare to die 🙂
*
Li Qing, as the supreme being of the immortal realm, was the people’s shining beacon.
The only unknown stain in his life was his affection for Dong Xia, the ruler of the demon realm.
In the final battle of the war between immortals and demons, the sky collapsed and the earth shattered. The ruler of the demon realm was finally slain under the sword of the supreme being of the immortal realm, and everyone in the immortal realm applauded.
The cultivation world lost a ruler of the demon realm.
And in the back mountain of Li Qing’s cave dwelling, he secretly hid away a fiancée.
Notes:
1. The female lead is white on the outside, black on the inside, and the queen of flattery; the male lead repeatedly tests the edge of darkness, a VIP guest at the crematorium.
2. Fantasy cultivation world setting.
