“I also don’t want Seo-yeon to be hurt because of my family, ma’am.”
It was a situation where he couldn’t say yes or no. Seo-yeon’s parents pursed their lips with unsorted expressions.
“If it’s difficult to decide right now, how about a grace period?”
“A grace period?”
“Yes. Since we’ve just met today, and you don’t know much about me, so…”
Although his vision wavered, words thought up on the spot flowed smoothly.
“How about I visit regularly and let you know who I am?”
“For someone facing an important exam, can you spare the time?”
“Then, could I bring my study materials?”
He asked to postpone the decision, then mentioned getting approval from the household, and now he was requesting to meet regularly.
Kwon-yul wanted to create a reason to meet her parents somehow.
“I don’t know what to say.”
“I won’t be a bother. If you tell me a convenient day, I’ll talk with your dad and quietly read a book.”
Tae-seok subtly glanced at Kyung-sook with a fairly promising proposal.
“But if it still feels burdensome, could we meet just one more time?”
“One more time?”
“If President Choi has met your mom and dad twice, shouldn’t I be given one more chance… wouldn’t that be fair?”
“That’s right. But…”
In terms of atmosphere, it seemed like Kyung-sook was the final decision-maker for this request.
“Ma’am, really, is it impossible?”
When Kwon-yul looked at her with his dark eyes glittering, Kyung-sook quickly avoided eye contact, as if cornered.
Then, unable to endure the awkward atmosphere, Tae-seok quickly gestured for him to empty the glass.
Empty it and fill it up several times. Kwon-yul was desperately holding on to the faint edge of reason in the abyss of irrationality.
Perhaps because he felt he might be rejected, the sound of Tae-seok’s voice seemed to fade away.
“It’s a matter of our daughter’s life, so I’ll discuss it and let you know. Come on, let’s drink with that meaning.”
“Seo-yeon’s dad, stop it. I said I can’t drink.”
“It’s just one bottle now. With this height. Can’t you handle this much?”
When Tae-seok gestured to lift the glass, Kwon-yul looked down at the small glass with a slightly uneasy expression.
Seo-yeon was smiling softly on the calm golden surface.
“Uh, Seo-yeon… my Seo-yeon.”
“Huh?”
Kwon-yul touched the small glass with his fingers, then raised the corners of his mouth.
“Are you drunk?”
“Oh, come on. Like this?”
Whether it was because of the atmosphere that seemed like he might be rejected or not, Kwon-yul felt the sound of Tae-seok’s voice getting farther away.
Whether the two worried or spoke, Kwon-yul looked at the glass and thought of Seo-yeon.
Zing―.
At that very moment, the phone in Kwon-yul’s jacket continued to vibrate without stopping.
“Your call. You have a call.”
“Is it perhaps Han Seo-yeon? I told her not to cause trouble unnecessarily.”
When Seo-yeon’s name came out of Kyung-sook’s mouth, Kwon-yul’s head shot up.
“Seo-yeon? Did you just say Seo-yeon’s calling now?”
“Oh? Uh, yes.”
Kwon-yul, gripping the table with both hands, slowly stood up.
As if the floor was rising as if an earthquake had occurred, he moved even slower to avoid shaking.
Carefully placing his feet like someone with shaky legs, he reached for the jacket.
As he hugged the humming jacket tightly to his chest, it was confusing whether the phone was ringing or his head was ringing.
‘Just sit for a moment… Should I clear my mind?’
To show a drunken state to Seo-yeon was absolutely unthinkable.
Kwon-yul sat on the sofa to clear his mind and blinked his eyes.
He raised the clearly heavy eyelids with difficulty. As his vision gradually blurred and eventually nothing was visible.
“Oh my! What should I do?”
If you could call it a feeling or a sensation, it was like something urgent had captured Seo-yeon when she was dealing with the suddenly appearing urgent fire.
‘Is it because of the purple applied with a brush?’
Whether it was because purple thought that if it behaved well, it would be granted leniency, or whatever it was, it made a fuss about wanting something.
No matter what, it wasn’t serious enough to forgive easily, but she didn’t bother stopping it.
Considering the trouble Seo-yeon went through because of purple, it wasn’t a big deal. Seo-yeon had assigned chores to purple, forcing it to organize the warehouse.
‘What is this? It feels a bit strange.’
It wasn’t that the print defect was serious.
Contrary to Secretary Choi’s worries, the defect rate was not high, and when Seo-yeon contacted the factory owner and talked to him, it went smoother than expected.
Seo-yeon, trying to find the cause of the uneasy feeling by rummaging through her mind, suddenly exclaimed.
“Yul!”
She had forgotten the most important person.
Seo-yeon immediately called Kwon-yul, muttering harsh words to herself. However, for some reason, he didn’t answer the call.
“What’s going on?”
Making the 21st call, Seo-yeon remembered Kwon-yul’s expression, which was fierce and determined.
‘Even today, I should meet Seo-yeon’s parents and talk about our relationship.’
He had said he would come after talking with Kyung-sook at the end of their call. Due to Kwon-yul, who couldn’t be reached, Seo-yeon started to feel uneasy.
“Could it be that Yul rejected me?”
For a moment, Seo-yeon’s mind was filled with negative thoughts. It was definitely not possible to endure this anymore, so she immediately called Kyung-sook.
“Um. What?”
Kyung-sook, who always carried her phone even when she went to the garden, did not answer. Even Tae-seok was the same.
“Why isn’t anyone answering the phone?”
It’s not like they all went on a group dive. Something must have happened for sure.
When Seo-yeon was about to grab the car keys.
Zing―.
The eyes of Seo-yeon, who checked the vibrating phone with a loud noise, widened.
The uncomfortable and uneasy premonition was not because of Kwon-yul.
Eun-hee’s call could easily be brushed aside or received comfortably. It was undoubtedly because it was about something important. Seo-yeon’s diminished heart couldn’t easily pick up the call.
‘Could it be about the dating rumor?’
Reaching out, picking up, reaching out again, Seo-yeon had a sudden certainty that it was because of the rumor with Min-hyuk.
She closed her eyes tightly, then opened them again. Even so, it didn’t seem like it would work, so Seo-yeon loosened her tight throat with a cough.
“Yes. Mom. Hello?”
[Is it okay to talk?]“Yes. It’s okay. Mom.”
Seo-yeon wanted to make excuses before the talk about the dating rumor came up.
[Seo-yeon, on Friday afternoon, is that time okay?] “What brings you to ask such a thing? May I inquire?” [Your father wants to meet Seo-yeon.]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:
