Couples in Love (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 55
After hearing Jin Young Cheol’s conditions, Baek Sun Joo could not hide her confusion. His words made absolutely no sense to her.
“What are you talking about? There were rumors about an illegitimate child, sure, but isn’t Sunwoo doing well at K1 Construction? Won’t he inherit the company someday?”
“The person who leaked those rumors to the press was none other than my father-in-law. The in-laws have absolutely no intention of ever handing the company over to Sunwoo.”
In that moment, Baek Sun Joo’s face twisted. The reason she had never worried much about her son was because she believed he was living well, without envying anyone, under his biological father and wealthy mother.
But after listening to Jin Young Cheol, it seemed that family’s circumstances were quite complicated too.
There was something else Baek Sun Joo couldn’t understand.
“What do you mean you’re going to pair him with Spokesperson Yoon? Isn’t she married? Photos of the two of them having dinner affectionately were circulating online just yesterday?”
She had vowed hundreds, thousands of times to live without paying attention, but the problem was that the son she gave birth to had succeeded far too spectacularly.
With looks that rivaled actors and exceptional ability that earned him a department head position at thirty, every little piece of news about Sunwoo became an article. She couldn’t remain ignorant even if she wanted to.
“It’s all a show. She knows I disapprove of my daughter-in-law, so that Sunwoo guy is deliberately putting on an act to spite me!”
“Why exactly do you disapprove of your daughter-in-law?”
“Her family background doesn’t make any sense from the start. You know her father is the infamous ‘Mama Han,’ scarier than a tiger, right? If that swindler hadn’t threatened anyone, she wouldn’t even be in the running as a match for our Sunwoo.”
Since Han Moon Taek had openly held a press conference on the wedding day, Baek Sun Joo also knew what kind of person Jin Young Cheol’s in-law was.
She had simply tried consciously not to pay attention, so she didn’t know the detailed inside story of how Han Moon Taek schemed to become Jin Young Cheol’s in-law.
“With a father like that, what could the child have possibly learned? She bragged right in front of me about having a one-night stand at a club, ugh.”
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…
