Boiling Desire (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 55
Even if Seo Ah hadn’t revealed her relationship with Ha Joon, Young Joo’s plan wouldn’t have changed. If anything, it seemed easier to persuade Seo Ah now.
“Miss… actually… please don’t be shocked by what I’m about to say.”
Young Joo grasped one of Seo Ah’s hands with both of hers and, feigning great difficulty, began to speak.
“I received a threat demanding that I pressure you into divorcing the department head—by any means necessary.”
Seo Ah’s eyes widened in shock, her pupils trembling violently.
“It must be the same person who sent those photos. I don’t know who it is—they always cover their face—but they keep showing up periodically to threaten me…”
“Th—threats? Are you hurt anywhere, unnie? Since when has this been happening?”
Seo Ah’s voice trembled as she anxiously examined Young Joo’s body.
“Ever since the department head rushed into marriage. Back then, they told me to stop the wedding. But when I told them you’d already married and intended to divorce, they quieted down for a while. Recently, though, the pressure has intensified again…”
“…….”
“But what if you suddenly say you won’t divorce…? Lately, they even said they’d handle everything themselves if I just sent you to a hotel…”
Young Joo made a pained face, intending to instill both fear and sympathy.
After all, Seo Ah had only recently opened her heart to Ha Joon, while she herself had been with her for a full eight years—and she was the one who’d saved Seo Ah’s life.
“It’s dangerous for you to stay close to the department head. They want to ruin him and are targeting you because you’re comparatively vulnerable.”
“…….”
When scheming men desperately battle for her favor in the male harem
This one’s also on my reread list! The rivalry, scheming between the men in the imperial harem are just as intense and thrilling as in classic palace drama novels, where concubines fight to the death. Give it a read, girls! I promise you won’t be disappointed.
Synopsis:
“I am not worthy of her… but I still want to be by her side, even if only as a loyal dog…”
Those were the painful whispers of Yue Guanyi – the proud Crown Prince of the Great Qi, who was torn between deep love and a guilty conscience. Despite holding the supreme power of the Imperial Guard, he still could not forget the dark past when he was sold into a brothel.
Fate played a cruel twist when Qiu Shuzhi – a young female official who had just passed the imperial examinations with top honors – stepped into his life. She did not know that she was the one who had saved him from a tragic fate many years ago. And now, her heart was the target of pursuit for both Yue Guanyi and the powerful Empress Dowager Qin Qing.
While Yue Guanyi only dared to silently care for and protect the one he loved from afar, the Empress Dowager Qin Qing openly expressed his feelings and did not hesitate to take advantage of his power to approach Qiu Shuzhi. The covert struggle between the two most powerful forces in the imperial court began…
