Edith was overjoyed when her mother, Mrs. Lowell, said so.
Until then, her playmates had been only everchanging or disappearing servants and her parents.
Apparently, the Lowell family had lived a rather affluent life as a ‘baron family’ about 50 years ago, but Edith only learned much later that she was a descendant of a baron.
Even after selling off their estate and title due to her father’s congenital incurable disease, their financial situation was never comfortable.
A few days later, the boy and his mother arrived.
Mrs. Leah and Isaac. The two filled some of the emptiness left behind after her father passed away from his illness.
Especially, the presence of Isaac, only a year older, became a significant strength.
Even when her mother had to work late at the clinic to make money.
Even when her father’s end was near and she was depressed.
And, even when she saw her overworked mother secretly coughing up blood.
When young Edith first realized her mother was hiding an illness, she was so shocked she couldn’t speak.
Would she lose her mother after her father?
Unable to calm her overwhelming and frightening feelings, just like now, her heart pounded. Fearing she would hear heavy news if she faced her mother, she ran blindly outside the house.
She realized she was lost in a dark forest far from home about when the thick clouds began to pour down rain.
“No. Mom’s not…sick…she’ll be fine….”
Edith cried her heart out under a large tree.
She was already sad and scared, and now she was lost and rained on, tears flowed endlessly.
What if she was attacked by a wild animal? Just then, she felt a presence from the bushes.
“Edith! I’ve been looking for you for a long time.”
Soaked even in a raincoat, Isaac appeared in her sight, bringing Cream, his always accompanying white horse.
Handing her a raincoat and smiling, the twelveyearold boy filled her with indescribable relief.
“You should talk to me first if something happens, why would you run away like a fool?”
Though Isaac spoke with an annoyed face, as if it were a nuisance, he spread his arms, meaning to embrace her.
Already shivering with cold, Edith plunged into his arms without thought. At that moment, she saw his rainsoaked black hair tangled together, the pumpkincolored eyes curved like halfmoons.
The warmth spreading from their touching bodies, and her breathing, even time itself, seemed to stop forever.
“When the rain stops, let’s ride Cream home. Tell me what happened before then. I’ll listen to everything.”
“Isaac…….”
“You’re such a fool. Just tell me what happened. Being scared is a bit better when we’re together.”
Isaac spat out, yet held Edith’s frozen hands with both of his, warming them. Then he gently stroked her head with a tender touch.
Edith, even at the age of twentythree, still couldn’t understand. At that time, what magic a mere twelveyearold boy had cast on me.
As I gazed into his golden eyes, the cold disappeared as if it was a lie, and my heart thumped as if it would leap out of my body.
Thump, thump, in sync with the heartbeat, I felt drawn into an unfamiliar world.
Even to an elevenyearold girl who had no experience with life, that was clearly love.
‘I thought Isaac would think the same way.’
But the boy who blushed at the sight of me eventually went back to his socalled hometown and cut off contact. Cruelly so.
In the meantime, Edith, who had grown into an adult, neatly gave up on marriage as it suited her circumstances.
But somehow, the boy who had left a bitter and depressing memory, and the man named Walter before my eyes overlapped.
Even though there was no way he could be here at this time.
‘Now that I see it, even the color of the eyes is different.’
By this point, perhaps my mind was straining to somehow conjure up a good memory, so as not to drive its owner mad.
Edith swallowed a selfmocking laugh, and Walter asked her.
“……Did you just say Isaac?”
When yandere male lead believes she loves him — but she never did
“How dare you!”
“How dare you make me love you, only to cast me aside as nothing more than a friend?!?
“I will never accept that.”
“I will never let you return to him.”
“Even if I have to burn myself to ashes.”
“Even if I must shatter my purity, my dignity, my very soul.”
“I will never let you escape me!”
This was the first novel that introduced me to the matriarchal genre. I’ve read it three times already!
At first, the male lead despised the female lead. Later, he misunderstood that she liked him, so he condescendingly and reluctantly reciprocated her feelings.
Then, he suddenly discovered that she was kind to everyone in the same way, and there was already someone she cherished in her heart, and that person was not him.
The male lead couldn’t believe it, he became angry and crazy. He was determined to capture her body and heart by any means necessary.
Synopsis:
Want to see how a green tea bitch male lead falls in love with the female lead?
Want to see how he flirtatiously pursues the female lead?
Want to see how he gets slapped in the face repeatedly?
The male lead is a green tea bitch, a poisonous lotus, jealous, ruthless, unscrupulous, with a venomous heart, and he’s also a delusional maniac.
The female lead is righteous, positive energy-filled, kind, a holy mother.
Let’s see how two people with extreme personalities come together~
