However, the warm warmth and the rhythmic breathing from Sajun that wrapped around her body gradually eased the tension.
She closed her eyes at some point, then lay down, and at some point, she found herself facing Sajun.
The gentle touch that lightly stroked her back remained vivid in her memory.
Because her body was cool, Sajun’s warmth couldn’t be so warm.
When sleeping in a one-room, she was disturbed by the sounds of people arguing and the loud laughter of drunkards.
There were times when she stayed awake, fearing that thieves might enter when she heard sounds from the window or the front door.
Although there were rumors that thieves had entered some houses.
But being in Sajun’s arms, she felt neither scared nor anxious.
The hotel was well-secured, so thieves wouldn’t enter, but even if they did, Sajun would protect her.
It made her wonder, “Is this why people get married?”
A sense of security, peace, warmth, and reliability.
The emotions she felt by sharing last night with Sajun were good.
So Taehee was confused.
Things she didn’t see in Sajun, who was still awkward in expressing emotions, began to appear, and things she didn’t feel began to be felt.
Before starting the relationship, Sajun, who seemed like he would be cold and indifferent, ended up being hurriedly eager to give, not to mention taking out the fake.
It would have been better if he at least showed a bit of reluctance, as it would seem hypocritical, calculated.
Rather, not showing such signs made it more touching.
At first, she didn’t know, but as time went on, she gradually felt it.
How much Sajun cared for her, how considerate he was, and how cautious he was.
Does he really like me? Such thoughts began to arise little by little.
“Manager!”
Looking towards the sound, Kang Juim appeared.
“If you’re coming here, couldn’t you come with me?”
In the cute grumbling of Kang Juim, there were two cups of cool Americano. I was about to say we weren’t that close, but I stopped myself.
Honestly, the conversation with Manager Kang was enjoyable, and lately, we’ve been talking a lot, so it felt comfortable.
Contrary to appearances, she seemed responsible, had a serious demeanor, and her bright personality, which approached me without hesitation despite my tendency to keep a distance from people, appealed to me.
“Did I disturb your time, Manager?”
“If it’s bothering you, I’ll leave again.”
“Of course, I should disappear. I have that much sense.”
To Kang Juim’s sincere words, Taehee hesitated for a moment before speaking.
“Manager Kang, have you ever seen the old movie ‘Temptation More Beautiful Than Love’?”
She asked Kang Juim, but she thought it was an old movie, so she might not know.
“Of course, I’ve seen it. It’s an old movie, but it’s a legendary movie among women. But why?”
Contrary to her concerns, Kang Juim answered that she had seen the movie.
‘Temptation More Beautiful Than Love’ is the story of Annette, the female lead who tries not to love Sebastian, the male lead who can never be loved.
The movie begins with the step-siblings, Catherine and Sebastian, from Manhattan’s upper-class family.
Catherine, like a Casanova who wants Sebastian, and Sebastian, who wants to sleep with Catherine, propose an unreasonable bet.
Sebastian decides to seduce Annette, the daughter of a headmaster who has vowed premarital chastity for herself.
But Annette and Sebastian fall in love for real.
Annette, who started love, learns the truths revealed one by one – a bet Sebastian made about his stepsister and herself, and Sebastian’s affair with another woman.
Annette feels betrayed and cannot trust Sebastian.
However, in the end, through Sebastian’s death and the diary where he recorded everything, Annette confirms Sebastian’s sincerity.
“I watched that movie yesterday and suddenly got curious. If it wasn’t Sebastian’s diary, if Sebastian didn’t die instead of Annette. If I were Annette, I don’t think I would have believed Sebastian’s sincerity until the end.”
Although the situation is a bit different, she felt that the Annette in the movie resembled herself.
There is no diary for Sajun to prove his sincerity, and there is no need for him to die on behalf of her.
Still, can she come to believe Sajun’s heart?
“If Manager Kang were Annette, do you think you would trust Sebastian?”
