The restaurant Le Coucher du Soleil in Jamsil was as difficult to reserve as picking stars from the sky.

Of course, with Tae-kyung’s name, everything was easy.

A manager sat alone at a window seat overlooking the outside, cutting a steak.

“Would you like me to do yours too?”

I can’t forget the sight of Jae-hee, putting down the knife and laughing with a distinctive sharp laughter.

If only I had known it would end so quickly, I might have said something.

The truth was, I fell in love at first sight. At that moment, you were the only one who moved my heart.

I first met Jae-hee when a manager started helping Tae-kyung with his work.

She was twenty-four years old at the time when she, driving instead of the tipsy Tae-kyung, first met Jae-hee on the way home.

Until then, helping Tae-kyung with his work had been kept a secret from his family, so I couldn’t tell everything truthfully.

So, I just tried to be casual, but when I saw Jae-hee walking towards me from a distance, the manager felt strangely captivated.

“Who?”

“Han Se-jun. We work together with my brother.”

“Oh.”

“I’ve heard a lot about you.”

“My brother talked about me? There’s no way. You’re good at lying.”

“…….”

“Just kidding. I’m Cha Jae-hee. Let’s be friends.”

Brightly smiling, twenty-four-year-old Jae-hee handing over her hand was like a fog flower.

If embraced as it is, it felt like the fragrance would vibrate, a clear and lovely girl.

Since Tae-kyung got the wedding tower and the position of a manager was created for me, I could always see Jae-hee up close.

She majored in costume design and believed that she would become a good designer after graduation, but she dropped out of school after more than four years.

It started when her only mother received a terminal diagnosis.

Jae-hee, who used to be lively and cheerful, seemed to start wearing a shadowy expression around that time.

In the winter of that year, Jae-hee contacted me for the first time.

“Manager Han. I’m alone now, can you come here?”

Although I knew that we should meet while keeping a reasonable distance, I couldn’t refuse Jae-hee’s request at that time.

Her voice, mixed with tears, felt so poignant beyond the handset.

When I rushed there, as expected, Jae-hee was crying too much, and her eyes were swollen.

Even after stopping her from pouring alcohol continuously and seeing her like that, I couldn’t say it.

The promise to stay by your side. A promise to protect you for a very long time. So, I hope you don’t cry anymore.

On the night before the accident, a manager stayed with Jae-hee all the time.

He realized that she had contacted Director Kim and did something that should not have been done, and desperately tried to stop her.

“Stop. Stop it all. Jae-hee.”

“…….”
I learned belatedly that for the past two years, Jae-hee has been secretly going to a psychiatric hospital and taking antidepressants.

I never once thought she would move so discreetly as to use someone else’s name.

Jae-hee, known to Tae-kyung and also known to herself, was not a person who used her head or calculated from behind.

What troubled her so much, what drove her to the extent of ruining the fake daughter of Chairman Cho, remains something a manager still doesn’t fully understand.

The only thing he can guess is that Jae-hee suffered more than he thought.

In the end, it was a fact that she had swallowed up the self-inflicted wounds of her own destruction.

“Manager Han, do you like me?”

“…….”

“I like you too. I really like you, Manager Han.”

The messy air, and Jae-hee’s proactive gestures that came too close, pulled the manager in at once.

That night, without knowing that sleeping pills were added, he drank the champagne handed by Jae-hee.

Deceived by her sweet words, he spent a passionate night with her. When he woke up, Jae-hee was no longer in this world.

Frozen upon Tae-kyung’s call saying she was found in the cold water of the reservoir, the manager had to crawl out of the hotel room.

Even now, on that night, Jae-hee’s confession that she liked him with eyes as black as coal was so bitterly resented and painful.

The message she left for Tae-kyung after her mother died, saying that she had wanted to die all this time, was also a wound to the manager.

Not knowing how painful it was. Not knowing how decayed it was.

My clumsy feelings that I thought everything would be fine over time felt so selfish that I couldn’t stand it.

Was the words “I like you” sincere? If you liked me, you shouldn’t have done that.

The wall of time that could never be turned back, no matter what means I used, seemed like a cruel fairy tale.

“… Sigh.”

Even the soft juice bursting from the meat had no taste. He just wandered around in the center of memory.

After returning to Korea, the manager occasionally had dinner with Jae-hee here.

She used to say that the world outside seen from here is really nice.

“If I fall from here, will it hurt?”

“…….”

“Just kidding.”

Even though she hinted at it like that. Perhaps he believed it, deceived by her bright smile.

When yandere male lead believes she loves him — but she never did

“How dare you!”

“How dare you make me love you, only to cast me aside as nothing more than a friend?!?

“I will never accept that.”

“I will never let you return to him.”

“Even if I have to burn myself to ashes.”

“Even if I must shatter my purity, my dignity, my very soul.”

“I will never let you escape me!”

This was the first novel that introduced me to the matriarchal genre. I’ve read it three times already!

At first, the male lead despised the female lead. Later, he misunderstood that she liked him, so he condescendingly and reluctantly reciprocated her feelings.

Then, he suddenly discovered that she was kind to everyone in the same way, and there was already someone she cherished in her heart, and that person was not him.

The male lead couldn’t believe it, he became angry and crazy. He was determined to capture her body and heart by any means necessary.

Synopsis:

Want to see how a green tea bitch male lead falls in love with the female lead?

Want to see how he flirtatiously pursues the female lead?

Want to see how he gets slapped in the face repeatedly?

The male lead is a green tea bitch, a poisonous lotus, jealous, ruthless, unscrupulous, with a venomous heart, and he’s also a delusional maniac.

The female lead is righteous, positive energy-filled, kind, a holy mother.

Let’s see how two people with extreme personalities come together~
