How can you accept the family of the person who killed your mother as your child’s new mother?
“I honestly have no feelings for you. If there’s a mistake, it’s Choi Gyu-hwan’s fault for abandoning his fiancée and messing with a home tutor. What sin do you have? I also know what it’s like to struggle in an empty house. I may not understand a person like Choi Gyu-hwan, who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth and grew up in a greenhouse without any worries, but…!”
The man laughed with hostility in his eyes.
It seems regrettable. Hyojin’s face twisted even more at the hostile reaction beyond imagination.
“Why are you bothering to be a legal guardian to your child? Even if you became the successor designated by Chairman Choi Seung-do, the founder, there won’t be a fool to appoint the unconscious CEO as the new leader in such a crucial time when we are electing a new executive. How can anyone be appointed as a new leader when Choi Gyu-hwan is lying in a vegetative state? This might be an opportunity given by the heavens. No one, even if Chairman Choi Seung-do left me as the successor through his will, would be foolish enough to appoint the unconscious CEO as the new leader.”
“Anyway, it seems like you misunderstand Choi Gyu-hwan.”
Still unable to know his true identity, Hyojin took a deep breath to not forget her composure.
“The Choi Gyu-hwan I know is not someone who has lived comfortably in a greenhouse without any worries.”
Despite seeming to have everything, he is a pitiful person who, at the age of seven, lost his father and grandfather, with no shield for his life, and has never experienced a life for himself.
That’s the Choi Gyu-hwan that Hyojin knows.
“Kang Jae-ik.”
Holding her fist, Hyojin exerted more strength at the sight of him.
“Are you Kang Hanna’s father?”
“Such audacity…!”
Seeing him in a bad mood, it’s confirmed.
Hyojin, who saw his eyes flickering as the mask was lifted, finally understood.
No wonder they looked alike.
“Disappointed? I tried to help because I heard your father went through a lot.”
“Even so, my dad didn’t teach me to stab someone in the back when they’re weak.”
Ha! Instead of being embarrassed, Hyojin, facing the mocking Jaeik, didn’t hide her contempt.
“Just because you grew up under poor parents doesn’t mean everyone is as cowardly as you.”
“Who will appreciate that pathetic loyalty?”
It’s not even a family connected by blood with Choi Gyu-hwan, let alone a legally recognized family.
“Anyway, Choi Gyu-hwan will soon step down from the company.”
As we welcome the new year, who will be elected as the representative when a person lying in a vegetative state will be the new leader? Perhaps, if he were appointed as the sole representative.
“Don’t talk nonsense. Choi Gyu-hwan will definitely wake up.”
Even if it’s to regain the company stolen from you by your grandfather.
“What will he do when he wakes up? According to the doctors, there’s a high chance he won’t remember anything due to post-traumatic amnesia. Will he remember you at all?”
Jaeik, smiling as if mocking, looked coldly at Hyojin, who was struggling like a foal pulling on the reins.
“Do you think your father caused that accident?”
“What?”
As expected, Hyojin’s pupils swayed like dice falling on a board.
“What are you talking about?”
Although he said it was about her deceased father.
“Understand what I’m saying. Stop beating around the bush!”
The eyes full of deceitful intentions glowed under the fluorescent light.
“Curious, aren’t you? What if your father caused the accident and passed away? Think about it if you’re curious. What’s the benefit? Instead of waiting until the man who doesn’t even remember me wakes up due to miserable loyalty or a sense of justice and becomes a new CEO of the company, don’t be a duck egg floating in the Nakdong River. Moreover, even if Seungdo Choi, the founder, left me as the successor through his will, no one would be foolish enough to appoint the unconscious CEO as the new leader.”
“Anyway, it seems like you misunderstand Choi Gyu-hwan.”
Still unable to know his true identity, Hyojin took a deep breath to not forget her composure.
“The Choi Gyu-hwan I know is not someone who has lived comfortably in a greenhouse without any worries.”
Despite seeming to have everything, he is a pitiful person who, at the age of seven, lost his father and grandfather, with no shield for his life, and has never experienced a life for himself.
That’s the Choi Gyu-hwan that Hyojin knows.
“Kang Jae-ik.”
Male lead is a Destined Young Husband (Female-dominant)
One-sentence summary: Wife-master, listen to my explanation!
Li Ruantang, a young lady from a prestigious family, stumbled and fell. When she woke up, she saw a noble and beautiful young man sitting by her bedside, wiping away tears.
The young master had slightly reddened eyes, and his every move exuded charm.
The sight made Li Ruantang’s eyes hot and her heart flutter. After all, she had made a bet with the young master Meng from the neighboring family. If she couldn’t marry a husband before the end of the year, she would have to admit defeat and give up the jade she had worked so hard to obtain.
Outside the window, the flowers were in full bloom.
Rather than losing the bet, the jade, and her face, Li Ruantang calculated that it would be better to seek marriage with the young master in front of her, killing three birds with one stone.
…
Meng Jun never thought that an accident during a spring outing would lead to them rolling down a cliff and into a river, yet still survive.
Now they were trapped in an unknown village, and Meng Jun had overheard that the family who had rescued them had their own intentions.
After all, it was Li Ruantang who had lost her mind and sought marriage first. He was only trying to protect himself!
Glancing at Li Ruantang, who was listing her own merits, the young husband’s voice softened, and he blushed as he lied, “W-wife-master, Wife-master, don’t you remember me?”
The young husband’s voice was clear and handsome, coaxing Li Ruantang’s heart to be soft and sweet, and she spared no effort to protect him.
It wasn’t until they returned to the capital that Li Ruantang suddenly remembered.
When they had fallen off the cliff, in order not to implicate Wei Yunruo, whom he secretly admired, the young husband had instead pulled her, who was slightly farther away, down the cliff with him…
Short summary by Yuushi L: Initially, the male lead (ML) liked another girl, while the female lead (FL) liked the ML. Both fell off a cliff. The FL temporarily lost her memory, and the ML, fearing others might take advantage of him, claimed FL was his wife while they were staying in a village. Later, when they returned home, the FL regained her memories and remembered that the ML liked someone else, so she kept her distance from him. However, during their time living together in the countryside, the ML’s view of the FL had completely changed. From this point, his pursuit of the FL begins.
