Ji Yeon couldn’t believe her eyes.
The person who walked into the studio greeting Steve was Jung Se Ah.
Of all places and times, how could she be here!
When their eyes met, Ji Yeon and Se Ah stood frozen for a few seconds, staring at each other.
“Ji Yeon, should we cut this now?”
Kang Hyun’s question from the side snapped Ji Yeon back to reality, and she calmly shifted her gaze from Se Ah to answer him, refocusing on the cooking.
“Do you know her?”
Kang Hyun, sensing Ji Yeon’s unusual demeanor, asked.
“Um… no. Just someone not worth knowing. Don’t worry about it, Kang Hyun.”
Ji Yeon replied with an awkward smile.
Although curious, Kang Hyun didn’t ask further, sensing Ji Yeon didn’t want to talk.
Cooking together turned out to be more fun than expected.
They hadn’t even tasted the finished dish yet, but the process of doing it together was so enjoyable.
Constantly talking, trying to create the same thing, sharing tasks and concerns.
Both Ji Yeon and Kang Hyun were really enjoying the class.
“Oh my, Kang Hyun! Your wrap is too big.”
Ji Yeon laughed, holding her stomach, as she saw the wrap Kang Hyun made.
“To make sure our Ji Yeon eats well, it has to be this big. But is it too big? Hmm…”
Kang Hyun wondered, looking at the wrap as big as an adult man’s fist.
Ji Yeon, who was good at other cuisines but struggled with Korean, taught Kang Hyun various things.
Unlike Ji Yeon, when Se Ah’s eyes met hers, she couldn’t move.
‘Eun Ji Yeon! Why are you here?’
Se Ah’s face contorted in pain without her realizing.
“Se Ah?”
Steve called out to Se Ah, who then came to her senses and headed towards an empty seat behind Ji Yeon.
‘That man, who is he? Has she finally moved on from Min Woo? Ah… I don’t know. What do I care who Eun Ji Yeon meets?’
Her mind was a mess with conflicting thoughts.
‘It’s funny. She claimed to have liked Min Woo for 10 years, yet she moves on so easily. How could she do all that knowing about Min Woo and me?’
Se Ah shook her head, trying to rid herself of her irritation towards Ji Yeon, and focused on the cooking instructions from Chef Steve.
Despite trying not to care, the sight of the two cooking at the table in front of her kept catching her eye.
The man with her, possibly the most handsome she’d ever seen, and Ji Yeon, laughing and cooking together, was unbearable.
It seemed like that girl always ended up with something better than what she had.
First taking Cha Min Woo, who was hers, and now finding an even better man.
Eun Ji Yeon. What luck were you born with? Does all the world’s fortune go to you?
“But what’s the use of just looking flashy? It seems like you’re dating someone for their looks… but good looks don’t last more than three months. Money is everything. You’ll regret it soon, too. Anyway, where do people meet someone who looks like that?”
Se Ah, not knowing anything, let her imagination run wild as she chewed over her jealousy of Ji Yeon.
‘If it wasn’t for you, Min Woo and I would be happily living without any problems right now. You’ve made things hard by interfering in our relationship; you should suffer and be punished too. You should never be happy. You deserve to be more miserable and wretched…’
Se Ah believed that Ji Yeon had ruined everything by coming between her and Cha Min Woo.
She had completely forgotten that it was Min Woo who ultimately made the decision to marry…
As Eun Ji Yeon prepared the ingredients, the man beside her cooked or cleaned up the rest, occasionally brushing her hair away from her face.
The look in his eyes, filled with unmistakable love, was obvious to anyone.
The sight of the detestable Eun Ji Yeon in front of her, being loved, filled Se Ah with envy, darkening her heart.
‘Don’t smile, Eun Ji Yeon. Don’t you dare smile like you’re the happiest person in the world in front of me!’
It didn’t matter to her whether the man was a flashy nobody or not.
She just hated seeing Eun Ji Yeon happily smiling.
Se Ah couldn’t remember the last time she felt loved by Min Woo. It seemed so distant.
Last winter, when Cha Min Woo had come to her, she had no doubt that all that awaited her was his love and abundant wealth.
Back then, Min Woo did everything she asked and treated her like a precious gem.
But somehow, things started to falter, and now they were in this awkward relationship, barely better than strangers.
It was unbelievable to her that they were worse off than others.
Se Ah couldn’t understand what the problem was.
Her hands were busy with the cooking, but her mind was elsewhere, constantly glancing at Ji Yeon and Kang Hyun in front of her.
Then, Kang Hyun, checking to see if anyone was watching, gently kissed Ji Yeon’s cheek.
Seeing this from behind stirred an inexplicable rage in her.
‘Why only you! Why are you so happy! I wanted to be loved too! Me too!’
“Ouch!”
Se Ah’s sharp scream echoed through the studio.
Caught up in everything else, Se Ah ended up cutting her hand with the knife.
Drops of red blood fell onto the cutting board.
Male lead first thought she played hard to get, only to realize she
really disliked him
