Heejun had a very strong sense of pride. This was largely due to his parents, who had spoiled him since he was a child. No matter what Heejun did, his parents always praised him as “our son” and “the eldest son.” Even in medical school, among his peers, Heejun’s family was the most well-off. He was the illegitimate son of a prominent hospital in Gangnam, and he himself was a dermatologist. People around him tried their best to get involved with him.
Living with such treatment, he had met a man stronger than himself for the first time today. Already feeling physically inferior to Hyun, being overwhelmed by that momentum, and feeling extremely uncomfortable, especially since Yerin, who was once his woman, seemed to have been taken away.
Seoyun observed Heejun lost in deep thought and inserted a pointed remark.
“Oppa, I sincerely hope that you and Yerin can reconcile.”
At those words, Heejun recalled the day he spent with Yerin, even though it had only been a few months since they met.
The bright smile she gave him, looking at him shyly, kept flashing before his eyes.
“Oppa, you still have feelings for Han Yerin. Don’t you?”
There was no answer, but silence was affirmative.
After ending things with Seoyun and falling into sleep, Heejun had heard himself calling Yerin’s name in his dreams several times.
At that time, he was very angry.

But now, thinking about it, it was an opportunity that came to Seoyun.
If Heejun still had feelings for Yerin and messing with his pride as a man would solve the problem easily.
Seoyun pulled her red lips and pulled the trigger.
“Can you just watch Han Yerin sticking to another man?”
“No.”
Heejun ground the ice in his mouth with a distant look.
“I can’t just leave it like that.”
Heejun thought to himself.
He must make sure to see the face of Director Cha Hyun wrinkled, pretending as if he owned the world when he sees me.
The warm spring sunlight poured into the Jiseok Electronics office. The gentle sound of careful footsteps echoed through the corridor, and soon, Hyun appeared. When the secretaries all stood up to greet him, Hyun smiled brightly and responded.

“Thank you all for your hard work today.”
Hyun’s smile, which had been constant, lingered a bit longer on Yerin.
“One secretary, bring the documents I asked for as soon as they’re organized.”
Yerin looked up at Hyun, and their gazes entwined in the air as a result.
After staring at each other for quite a while, Yerin looked away first.
“I’ll bring the documents right away, Director.”
“Okay, then come in with me.”
“You organized it well for easy viewing. Good job.”
It wasn’t an empty compliment; it was sincere.
Yerin often neatly organized the documents when they came in from each team, making them easy to read at a glance. Her straightforward filing greatly increased work efficiency.

Hyun, as if satisfied, closed the file with a thud and stared at Yerin with a meaningful look.
“How about a date this weekend?”
Yerin’s face showed a slight awkwardness at the question.
“Director, I have a prior engagement this Saturday. If it’s okay, can we spend a little more time on Sunday?”
“Yes, that’s fine.”
Having agreed readily, Hyun belatedly became curious about Yerin’s Saturday schedule.
“Where are you going on Saturday?”
“I have volunteer work that I do regularly once a month.”
Hyun showed a keen interest as Yerin explained.
Hyun also regularly sponsored a childcare center, so he was even more curious about Yerin’s story.
“I go to the childcare center, prepare lunch, and spend time with the children. That’s what I do every Saturday.”

“I see.”
Hyun nodded understandingly.
“It seemed difficult to make time on the same day, so I suggested a date on Sunday.”
“Can I join that volunteer work?”
“Yes, of course.”
A bright smile spread across Yerin’s face.
“The children would love it if Director joined us.”
“Sure. Han Yerin might feel awkward going alone.”
“Ah…”
Yerin, who was in the middle of the conversation, belatedly realized what she had forgotten and bit her lip.

“Why is that?”
“Um, well…”
“Tell me comfortably.”
There was only one reason for her hesitation.
The volunteer work they regularly did was with Nari.
So, if Hyun went along, they would know that she and Nari were close.
After pondering for a moment, Yerin quickly opened her mouth.
“I met President Kim Nari from Cheto before, and we talked about volunteering at the same childcare center.”
“I see.”
“Yes, so I forgot to mention that I suggested we go together this time.”

Hyun raised his eyebrows as if it wouldn’t be a problem.
“Let’s go together. Since I know President Kim Nari’s face, it’s fine.”
“Yes, sure.”
Outside of work, Yerin was curious about Hyun’s presence during this week’s volunteer work, especially looking forward to seeing him with the children.
“That day, will you be traveling with President Kim Nari?”
“Yes, that’s the plan.”
“Alright. I’ll let you know the location, and we can meet there.”
After Hyun entered his office, Secretary Choi’s eyes narrowed slightly.
Ex-husband Wants Reconciliation
One-line summary: Chasing the wife to the crematorium (making an effort to attract someone who has become indifferent), the female lead doesn’t look back, the second male lead takes the position.
Intro:
To repay the kindness of the older generation, Su Mu crossed into a female-dominated world and became a live-in daughter-in-law of the Yan family, single-handedly saving the Yan family from fire and water.
But her husband, Yan Jiyue, the eldest son of the Yan family, treated her with sarcasm and never showed her a good face.
It wasn’t until after Su Mu’s death that this pampered and arrogant young master shed a few fake tears and pretended to want to die for love.
This life’s kindness was enough. If there was a next life, she would definitely kick Yan Jiyue away.
Who knew that the heavens would be so kind as to allow her to be reborn, returning to the time when she had just married into the Yan family.
Su Mu glanced at the Yan eldest son, who still spoke coldly to her, and threw a divorce letter in front of him.
“Let’s divorce!”
***
Yan Jiyue never imagined that he would be reborn. He happily went to find Su Mu, wanting to make up for the mistakes he had made in his ignorant youth.
Wasn’t the reason the heavens allowed him to be reborn to let him reconcile with Su Mu?
But when he pushed open the door to Su Mu’s room, the person lying on the bed was another man.
Su Mu’s personal attendant, Xie Yi.
Yan Jiyue hated him so much that his teeth itched. In front of Su Mu, Xie Yi was a gentle and considerate whisperer of sweet nothings, but in reality, he was vicious-hearted and deliberately sabotaged their husband and wife relationship.
In the previous life, it was he who secretly hid in Su Mu’s coffin and committed suicide, stealing a step ahead of him to be buried with Su Mu.
Yan Jiyue’s eyes were filled with hatred as he cursed, “What kind of thing are you? Your background is lowly, what right do you have to occupy Su Mu?”
Xie Yi looked at the sleeping Su Mu and no longer pretended to be a whisperer of sweet nothings.
He proudly stuck out his belly, “I have the right because my belly is capable of giving the Wife-master a daughter.”
***
Yan Jiyue was consumed with jealousy. He spread rumors that Xie Yi had once been branded with the mark of a “harlot” on his chest.
But on the night Xie Yi cut off the flesh bearing that mark, Su Mu suddenly realized something was amiss.
“How did you know the exact moment I was poisoned? And why did you show up a month early?”
Xie Yi remained silent, blood from his wound soaking through his robes. His sapphire eyes brimmed with anguish – or was it just a flawless act?
Between a once-arrogant husband now seeking redemption, and a gentle soul willing to die for her – who truly held the darkest secrets? And could it be that Su Mu and Yan Jiyue weren’t the only ones given a second chance at life…?
