Ji Yeon and Min Woo, she wasn’t sure if they used separate rooms or if there was another room, but it seemed that most of Min Woo’s belongings were gathered in the room he had mentioned.
It wasn’t difficult to find the luggage that Min Woo had mentioned, so she planned to leave the room right after finding it, but she took a look around the room.
There were no paintings or photos, not much furniture, it was a room filled with books and documents.
But there was no bed.
‘He said he loved me, he said he couldn’t forget about me all this time……. Regardless, it means that for the past 3 years, they slept together, right?’
For the past 3 years that she didn’t know about, the man she loved and that woman had lived as a couple.
And perhaps a place where she might have to live for another 6 months.
Just thinking about it made her so angry that she impulsively opened the door to another room that was in sight.
A large kingsized bed was the first thing she saw in what appeared to be their bedroom.
Beautiful lace printed bedding and curtains, and a large wedding photo of the two, visible above the bed.
In the photo, that woman, Eun Ji Yeon, was dazzlingly smiling, hugging her man’s waist.

“So you’re saying that while he said he couldn’t forget me for 3 years, he lived in a place like this with Eun Ji Yeon. After acting like we would break up after a year, it’s been 3 years.”
She was filled with the desire to tear off that photo right away, but she restrained herself and moved towards the dressing room.
In there, there were a lot of highend clothes and bags, the ones that Se Ah had only heard the names of, or hadn’t even heard of.
Among them, a small dress adorned with closely packed pearls caught her eye at first glance.
She picked up a new dress that still had the price tag on it and held it up to herself in front of the mirror.
And then she forced a bitter smile and looked at her reflection in the mirror.
Even without trying it on, she knew this dress would suit her perfectly.
Just like this dress, this house would suit her too well.
“Eun Ji Yeon, why did you have everything? Why only you!”
[I might be a bit late today. Get there by 8.] “Today? 8 o’clock? Oh right!”Ji Yeon had completely forgotten about the fact that Min Woo was supposed to come home on Friday, and only remembered when she received his text in the afternoon.
A meeting once a month, which he insisted on having despite his distaste.

‘What should we do when we meet? Sigh… I’m also a problem. How could I forget about such a thing? Just having dinner together would be good, right?’
As soon as it was 6 o’clock, she left work and headed straight to the supermarket.
While she was shopping, her hand naturally reached for the ingredients of the food Min Woo liked.
Although it wasn’t what she wanted, living with Kang Juran drastically improved Ji Yeon’s cooking skills.
Juran nagged her about having to serve Min Woo a different side dish for breakfast every day, and unable to withstand Juran’s nagging, she attended a special class taught by a famous chef designated by her.
At first, she made many mistakes because she didn’t know how to do it well, but later she found it enjoyable and discovered a talent in herself, leading her to obtain a Korean cuisine cooking certificate.
Even Min Woo, who was a picky eater, always cleaned his plate when she cooked.
Upon arriving home and opening the door, Min Woo’s mouth watered at the savory and delicious aroma that greeted him.
It was the scent of Ji Yeon’s cooking that he hadn’t smelled in months.
Living with Se Ah now, he was hardly able to eat homecooked meals.

Most of the food that Se Ah served were ordered from delivery apps, advertised as famous and toprated restaurants. But Min Woo, who had a preference for simple and clean tastes, was gradually getting overwhelmed by the intensely flavored food.
“The smell is good.”
“I made your favorite meatballs and stirfried eggplant. I also made a little bit of japchae. Please wash your hands and come right away. The food just got ready.”
As expected, Ji Yeon knew his taste too well.
Perhaps because it was a dinner that suited his taste after a long time, a satisfied smile briefly crossed Min Woo’s face.
After the meal, Ji Yeon took out sparkling wine, and Min Woo brought his own glass.
“You don’t drink sparkling wine, do you?”
“I do, occasionally.”
In the living room, where only the gentle flow of classical music could be heard, the two were silently sipping their wine.
Perhaps because they were drinking without conversation, the wine in the bottle quickly decreased, and they soon opened a second bottle.
“I don’t know if I should say this, but I didn’t expect you to talk about divorce so soon. Is there a reason why you made such a quick decision?”
Min Woo broke the suddenly awkward silence.
“Why are you suddenly curious about that?”
“Truth be told, I thought you wouldn’t go through with the divorce till the end.”
“Ha! You have the audacity to say that. Did you think I would cling to you, crying and begging?”
At her words, Min Woo curled one corner of his mouth into a smile and shrugged his shoulders.
He didn’t verbalize it, but it was as if he naturally had that assumption.

Seeing him like that, Ji Yeon felt bitterness fill her mouth and she drained the remaining wine in her glass in one gulp.
“Perhaps, unbeknownst to me, my heart gave up long ago.”
“Really? When was that? When your heart first gave up.”
Perhaps due to the quick intake of wine, Min Woo, becoming increasingly brazen, asked this strange question. Although Ji Yeon found it utterly absurd, she wanted to be even more audacious.
As if such questions meant nothing to her now.
“Hmm… now that I think about it, it seems it was that night.”
“That night?”
“The night I first spent with you.”
Min Woo could not remember precisely when the night they first spent together was.
In the beginning of their marriage, he did not even share a room with Ji Yeon, let alone have any physical contact. There was no warm glance or emotional interaction.
However, once they spent a night together, the number of nights they shared increased.
His longing for Se Ah still overflowed, but after the night he spent with Ji Yeon for the first time, he found himself unknowingly drawn to her body.
Min Woo could not remember, but the first night they spent together was one day about a year and a half into their marriage.
That day, he had returned late from a drinking session with his halfbrothers and relatives.
I wasn’t sure what had made him so angry, but he was so drunk he could barely walk properly, swaying his body.

I tried to support his staggering figure and move him to his room, but Min Woo was too heavy for me.
While staggering along with him, we ended up falling in front of the living room sofa.
“Mr. Min Woo, please try to get up. Let’s just walk to our room, okay?”
Ji Yeon, who ended up under the fallen Min Woo, shook him, but he showed no response.
How many minutes had passed?
Min Woo slowly and heavily opened his eyes and stared piercingly at Ji Yeon who was lying beneath him.
His eyes were shining pitch black, seemingly looking at her but not really seeing her.
This frightening gaze was a first for her.
Min Woo, who had been staring at Ji Yeon for a while, suddenly grabbed her arms above her head and bowed his head to kiss her.
The bitter taste and scent of alcohol pervading his mouth marked the memory of their first kiss.
He intruded deeply into her mouth and soon began to forcefully explore her inside.

Ji Yeon couldn’t resist him.
That day, her heart gave up?
At Ji Yeon’s incomprehensible words, Min Woo became curious again.
“Why that day?”
“That day, you whispered into my ear, over and over.”
Ji Yeon’s eyes, staring straight into Min Woo’s, were gradually cooling down.
“Se Ah…,” he said.
Male lead first thought she played hard to get, only to realize she
really disliked him
