Thinking about various things, Ho-tae slowly rolled his eyes.
“I need to talk to my father and check behind my brother. Otherwise, my father has been meddling with the company and hasn’t been still lately.”
“Oh, why is your father meddling in the company?”
“In fact, our company, my father, that is, Yugeon’s father was the president. My father took over when my grandfather passed away, but Yugeon has a lot of complaints about that! He’s so greedy! Originally, he probably thought it was his company.”
Jenny blinked her big double eyelids several times.
“Oh, really, it’s funny. Why is it that people are so insatiable? I guess you shouldn’t judge by appearances.”
“That’s right. Before, he even said he crashed his own car several times.”
“Huh? The accident back then… It was the cousin’s car, right?”
“Yeah, Yugeon’s car. Ah, I don’t know how many years he’s been pretending to be blind after smashing that car over such a stupid thing.”
Recalling the accident from the past, Jenny spoke cautiously.
“Jagiya, that day, the cousin didn’t know about the accident, right? But still, it’s your car.”
“You know, I got rid of everything like black boxes, and with the help of Jaemin, I handled the aftermath neatly without a trace!”
Thinking of the lives lost as a result, the two people turned their eyes with a more cautious expression.
“Anyway, let’s not talk about that incident anymore.”
“Yeah, our brother also said he won’t mention it at all.”
“I’ve received a lot of help from my brother. If I get married this time, I’ll properly take care of my brother’s gift for the newlyweds.”
While he was about to give something to Jaemin, Jenny, uninterested unless it was hers, grabbed Ho-tae’s collar and said, “Anyway, honey, investigate your cousin’s situation. If things go well, this could be our house, right?”
“Okay, don’t worry, my dear.”
Holding Jenny’s urging hand, Ho-tae nodded several times.
Chae-won, who had come up to the second floor, walked to Jenny’s room with a shopping bag in one hand.
As she opened the door, a dog was playing alone among scattered clothes.
Looking at her room surrounded by pink wallpaper, Chae-won approached Jenny’s desk.
“Hello again.”
The dog, scratching the floor with its front paws, recognized Chae-won and wagged its tail.
Bark, expressing joy by running around without a care in the world, the dog calmed down as soon as Chae-won scratched its head a few times.
Smiling, Chae-won straightened up again.
“I come every week, but really… It’s dirty. I hope my sister didn’t buy this while cleaning up.”
She was sure that she did, but she hoped it wasn’t the case.
To maintain the absence of divorce intentions, she came every weekend as declared, but this house was getting as messy as she didn’t want to step in.
Chae-won looked around the room with a pitying expression and then turned her eyes to Jenny’s desk.
Placing the shopping bag she had brought on the desk, Chae-won looked at something that had been pushed aside.
A card designed with gold letters saying ‘We are getting married’ on a white background.
“… Wedding invitation?”
Jenny seemed to be getting married to that guy, whether it was a hotel or a hotteok.
While picking up the card, the sound of fast footsteps approached, and Chae-won’s hand was slapped down.
“What are you doing? Huh? Why did you come into an ownerless room and touch someone else’s things recklessly!”
Looking at the pale-faced Yeong-ja standing in front of her, Chae-won tilted her head slightly.
“Why are you so surprised?”
“What’s there to be surprised about! You came into an ownerless room and rummaged through things, so that’s why I’m saying that!”
It was almost a big problem to say that it was just for that reason, and her complexion was unusually pale.
Chae-won smiled slightly.
“Lady, she asked me to lend her some clothes.”
“Clothes?”
“She said she’s going on a vacation with her boyfriend, so she asked me to lend her the clothes she wore before. She told me to leave them on the desk when I called earlier.”
Yeong-ja, who blinked her eyes a few times, soon coughed awkwardly.
“Anyway, why are you here without the owner? Huh? Going into someone else’s room and rummaging through things!”
Chae-won, grabbing Jenny’s clothes, was about to leave when Yeong-ja held her hand.
“By the way, dear, investigate a bit about your cousin’s situation. If it works out well, this could be our house.”
“Okay, don’t worry, my dear.”
Holding Jenny’s urging hand, Ho-tae nodded several times.
“Anyway, if you put down the clothes, get out quickly, right now in this room!”
Staring at it, Chaewon plopped down on Jenny’s bed right next to her.
“Hey, I told you to get out, so what are you doing right now?”
“I’ve caught some disease lately. It’s a disease that makes you not want to do things even if you’re told to do them.”
“Is this for real! Get out of my daughter’s room quickly, okay?”
“Oh, I don’t want to.”
“Hey!”
Even with Yeong-ja shouting loudly, Chaewon completely lay down on Jenny’s bed.
“Have a good time at your friend’s gathering. I need to take a nap.”
“Is this for real! Do you have no shame now? Huh?”
At that moment, the music of ‘Greetings of Love’ flowed through as a ringtone.
The sophisticated sound of the cello reached Yeong-ja’s ears and stopped at the end of her displeased expression.
“Oh, okay. Yeah, I’ll leave now.”
The voice she just emitted was quite cultured, completely different from the one she had used a little while ago.
Smirking, Chaewon comfortably settled into her seat.
After ending the call, Yeong-ja looked at Chaewon again and snorted through her nostrils, but thinking about the scheduled plans, she couldn’t help but calm down her excitement.
“Youu! Try staying here until I come back! Huh? I’m letting it go today!”
Yeong-ja soon gathered all the wedding invitations on the desk and left.
With her eyes slowly opening, Chaewon blinked her eyes slowly.
“Why is she so sensitive like that…”
Seeing the unusually sensitive reaction, it seemed that the collected wedding invitations were bothering her.
With her gaze down, Chaewon heard the excited sound of Totto eating something under the desk.
Raising herself to sit, Chaewon tilted her head in silence.
“What are you eating so enthusiastically?”
As she stared, the paper the dog had spread on the floor looked familiar.
Chaewon pulled out the torn paper messily.
It was something like the wedding invitation that Yeong-ja had taken away a while ago.
Putting together the torn pieces, the completed letters became visible.
[August 7th, Ivory Convention, Groom No Jaemin, Bride Golora]Assuming it was Jenny’s, as she originally thought, Chaewon raised her head straight and stared at the combination of letters for a long time.
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!!!
