President Jin and HyeSook must have spent a happy time with TaeJin that day.
Not feeling uncomfortable knowing they were out of their minds.
The only reason they were tense now was because DoJoon, who looked at them enough to see inside them, was staring at them.
Unaware of TaeYeon’s feelings, DoJoon continued his words.
“This weekend, I must pay respects to my fatherinlaw and motherinlaw.”
“……”
“I couldn’t take care of you properly because there was no splendor after coming back from America.”
TaeYeon’s mouth didn’t open easily, even though she should say it was okay.
DoJoon added more confidence to the story that Secretary Choi had told him, capturing the subtle change that brushed TaeYeon’s face.
“If Ms. Jin TaeYeon sets the schedule, I will match it.”
“Yes……”
“And the proposal by Ms. Jin TaeYeon, it’s satisfactory.”
At the work talk, TaeYeon’s face turned different than before.
“I’m thinking of taking a few modifications to the executive meeting.”
“Really?”
“So come to my office this afternoon.”
Among the awkward conversations they had just had, it was a word that became a light for TaeYeon.
((()))((()))((()))
Mrs. Choi stopped by Baek Sangjae to get some other side dishes including aged kimchi.
When Mrs. Choi was about to leave after finishing her business. Chairman Cha, who happened to find her, spoke to her.
“Mrs. Choi, it’s been a long time.”
“Chairman, you’ve been doing well, right?”
Mrs. Choi had served Chairman Cha for a long time at Baek Sangjae.
Because of her good cooking skills and meticulous personality, she had asked her to do the housekeeping job at DoJoon’s house.
“Hehehe. I’m the same. Is the job at DoJoon’s house manageable?”
“Yes. The director and the wife have been so careful.”
Chairman Cha simply called Mrs. Choi for a cup of tea.
After chatting for a while, Chairman Cha subtly asked about the daily life of his son and daughterinlaw.
“Are they still awkward?”
To that question, Mrs. Choi denied and replied.
“No, they are so good.”
“Really?”
Chairman Cha nodded his head.
Mrs. Choi, talking about how much the two were falling in love, suddenly remembered what happened last night and made a sad face.
“Why are you making such a face?”
“It seems that the director did something wrong yesterday.”
“To our new daughter?”
Mrs. Choi nodded her head. Chairman Cha, who had been holding his cup, put it down with a thud, making an angry face.
“What the hell did DoJoon do.”
Mrs. Choi told the story of TaeYeon coming home crying last night. Chairman Cha’s face changed every moment as he listened to the story.
“You don’t know why they fought?”
“Yes. It’s private life, so……”
“Oh. Thank you for telling me, Mrs. Choi.”
After Mrs. Choi left, Chairman Cha let out a deep sigh.
And without hesitation, he called DoJoon.
((()))((()))((()))
Even after talking to TaeYeon and coming into his office, DoJoon couldn’t concentrate on his work easily.
The words that Secretary Choi had just said kept ringing in his head.
The fact that Cha Shin Business was desperately hiding the fact that TaeYeon and TaeJin were twins.
And that the relationship between TaeYeon and President Jin is not good.
If he hadn’t returned to Korea, he would have never known.
Even now, it didn’t matter whether TaeYeon’s family situation, whether she was close to her parents, and other trivial stories were bothering DoJoon.
But strangely, his heart was heavy.
When DoJoon was glaring at the tablet PC on the table.
His cell phone rang. Seeing the caller, DoJoon opened his eyes as if surprised.
“What’s going on.”
What’s going on? How dare you live after doing such a thing!
It was Chairman Cha who called and screamed all of a sudden.
DoJoon’s surprise was only for a moment.
He was worried that a picture of TaeJin dating another man might have been delivered to Chairman Cha, and DoJoon bit his lip tightly.
He decided to deny it for now, not knowing whether it was true or not.
“I have no idea what you’re talking about.”
You made our new daughter cry yesterday!
“……Chairman, what did you just say.”
I happened to meet Mrs. Choi a while ago. I heard everything, so don’t try to deny it.
Do Jun gave a sardonic laugh, as if he found it absurd. He was relieved that Tae Jin’s paparazzi photo hadn’t been delivered to Chairman Cha.
Without a reply from Do Jun, Chairman Cha grew increasingly angry.
“Why would you make my delicate and patient daughterinlaw cry?” he bellowed.
“One can have disagreements in a marriage, isn’t it so?” replied Do Jun.
“You’re shameless. It’s undoubtedly your fault. As if my daughter could do something wrong.”
“Who’s the father here? Anyone would think you’re Tae Yeon’s father.”
Male lead fell into her trap — and shattered when she walked away
This is also on my reread list!
This one is a slow burn, but when it burns, it burns hard.
Definitely worth a read, y’all!
The story follows a thousand-year-old seductive spirit who, on a bet, sets out to charm the male lead—a once-promising but unfortunate cultivator.
But just when she succeeds in making him fall for her, she heartlessly leaves, driving him to madness.
Determined to find her at all costs, he captures her, keeping her by his side no matter what, even if she hates him.
I love this kind of trope—I enjoy watching the male lead suffer in agony.
The ending drags a bit with unnecessary filler, but that’s fine.
As long as I enjoy the beginning, I’m good.
