I should have asked Min Tae-hee to leave this company, whether by keeping it a secret or pretending not to know.
Kim Woo-yeon, the deputy manager, was ecstatic, spreading her imagination’s wings, at least until the man turned around.
The man who had just kissed Min Tae-hee gently on the lips, ending the kiss with romantic finesse, even wiped her wet lips with his thumb in a courteous manner.
What’s up with that man? He’s a bit charming, isn’t he? His neck, body, and the way the suit fits him—everything about him.
Seeing the man’s face as he turned away after finishing his tasks, Deputy Manager Kim Woo-yeon had a blissful expression.
Wow, he’s insanely handsome. But why does his face look familiar?
As she looked at the man’s cold eyes piercing through his pants pocket with both hands, a thunderbolt struck in Deputy Manager Kim Woo-yeon’s mind.
“The, the president!?”
How could Min Tae-hee be involved with the hotel president… Wait, isn’t the president a married man too?
Chilled to the bone, Deputy Manager Kim Woo-yeon was captured by an unjust ominous premonition.

Even though it was them who committed adultery and made mistakes, it felt like she, not Min Tae-hee, should be the one leaving the company.
Behind the president, Min Tae-hee stood with a casual expression.
When the opponent is the president, even committing adultery can be done so confidently.
Despite the burning inside, Deputy Manager Kim Woo-yeon quickly spoke up.
“I… I didn’t see anything. I’ll… keep the secret well.”
“Sure, I appreciate it.”
The president, with an indifferent tone, turned his gaze to Min Tae-hee.
The way he gazed at her so softly made Deputy Manager Kim Woo-yeon’s heart flutter.
“My wife wishes so.”
Wife? What wife? Unable to comprehend the words, Deputy Manager Kim Woo-yeon looked on without saying anything.

The president, gently caressing his sharp jaw with his fingertips, revealed the same design ring as the one Min Tae-hee was wearing on her fourth finger.
The two of them were not having an affair; they were a legal married couple.
The president’s wife, the precious woman who would become the future lady of the Seomun Group.
I can’t believe it. What have I done to the president’s wife?
As the misdeeds she had done to Min Tae-hee flashed through her mind like a kaleidoscope, Deputy Manager Kim Woo-yeon’s face grew paler.
“You go first.”
At Min Tae-hee’s words, the president nodded briefly.
Passing by Deputy Manager Kim Woo-yeon, who could barely breathe, the president suddenly stopped.
“Are you Kim Woo-yeon, the deputy manager? The one who told me to cultivate the sense of choosing gifts?”
“……!”

“Keep that in mind.”
Only when they were alone did Min Tae-hee approach slowly.
Now that her identity was revealed, she was arrogant, with the usual gaze and expression.
“Make sure to keep it a secret. I don’t want any special treatment as the president’s wife. Can you do that?”
After hearing her agreement, Min Tae-hee finally left through the emergency exit.
Left alone, Deputy Manager Kim Woo-yeon felt her legs give out, and she slumped to the ground.
A few days after being caught kissing with Sa-jun on the emergency stairs by Deputy Manager Kim Woo-yeon, Tae-hee moved to the Planning Department and took charge of an important project.
It was the first time since its establishment in Jangchung-dong that Seomun Hotel underwent remodeling.
Externally just one of the team members, internally Tae-hee was the project manager.
Having spent a long time in a construction company and being responsible for interior design, she was quite familiar with the tasks.
Above all, once this project was completed, it would be revealed that Tae-hee was the project manager, and rapid promotions would likely follow.

Knowing this well, Tae-hee staked her life on it.
The three wealthy men of Seomun always had words of advice for Tae-hee. “Don’t burden yourself, just live normally doing what you want.”
Initially, she had thought about living a truly ordinary life as a chaebol daughter-in-law, but her mindset changed.
Since she had become a chaebol daughter-in-law, she wanted to spread her wings as much as possible.
Curious about her own limitations and driven by her innate personality that felt the need to finish everything once started, Tae-hee had willingly chosen to work overtime from this week onwards.
Thinking about spending time with her family on weekends, today, being Friday, she left work even later.
When she arrived home, it was past midnight.
As Tae-hee casually kicked off her shoes, sensor lights, lined up like street lamps, illuminated the entrance corridor.
Walking silently to avoid making any noise, the accumulated fatigue from her responsibilities pressed heavily on her eyes and shoulders.
Although she wanted to rush to her son’s room and see him sleeping, she persevered and held back.

After showering in the first-floor bathroom and climbing the stairs to the second floor, Tae-hee stopped and smiled.
The wealthy men, who she thought would be in their rooms, were in the living room.
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.
