“After dinner, while I was rinsing the dishes, Do-ha came up behind me and buried his face in my hair. His warm and natural gesture made me feel a deep sense of relief.
“I can do that.”
His sweet voice was pleasant to hear.
“The dishwasher will take care of it. But if you feel sorry, can you make tea?”
“Sure. I’ll do the dishes next time.”
“Okay.”
After finishing the dishes, we sat at the table. The paper-shaded lamp on the table spread a soft light throughout the kitchen. As I sat down, Do-ha came over and placed his hand on my shoulder.
“I feel like I haven’t done this for you recently.”
He spoke softly and began massaging, bringing a refreshing feeling. Do-ha’s massage skills had improved. His hands were skilled, moving from the neck to the shoulders, back, and head.
“Does it feel good?”
“Yes. Thank you.”
Do-ha handed me tea, and a fresh scent filled the air around the table. Even though it was dried grapefruit, the aroma was refreshing. As I took a sip, he looked at me quietly.
“There’s an event in Incheon next Thursday. We should probably attend, but if it’s too much for you, I can go alone.”
“Really? I’ll go.”
Usually, I would have declined. Such events are tiring and not always necessary to attend. However, thinking I might glean even a small clue, I decided to attend this time.
“Are you sure?”
“Of course. It’ll be nice to see people and change the mood.”
I smiled gently, and Do-ha’s gaze softly met mine.
“Aren’t the household chores difficult for you? Maybe we should get a housekeeper.”
“That topic again? No need.”
I smiled and shook my head, and Do-ha laughed lightly.
“You’re so stubborn. But tell me if it gets too hard.”
As always, that was his last word on the matter. My husband often brought up hiring a housekeeper. He’s been suggesting it since our honeymoon, considering the size of our house. But I’ve always refused, finding it uncomfortable.
Do-ha looked at me tenderly. I felt a small sense of happiness. As we chatted, time flew, and we finished our tea. Do-ha then stood up.
“I’ll go exercise.”
“Again today? You just came back from a business trip. Take a break for a day.”
As Do-ha headed to the dressing room, I asked him, concerned.
“It’s okay. If I skip even a day, I feel restless.”
He smiled kindly, said goodbye, and left. I watched his figure through the glass, deep in thought.
Do-ha had been going out regularly in the evenings for several months, citing exercise as the reason. He’s always enjoyed working out, but with the business growing, he hadn’t had much time for it lately.
However, he started leaving the house regularly after work at some point.
Until now, I hadn’t questioned Do-ha’s actions. But after hearing what Lee Soo-rin said, I was confused about whether his regular evening outings were really for exercise or due to the influence of some incident.
There was one thing I was sure of.
[Dash] Even if your mother opposes, I will marry you.I suddenly remembered his voice from years ago, ringing low.
[Star Icon] [Star Icon] [Star Icon]I was driving to Daechi-dong. It was to visit my father-in-law, Cha Ki-joong. He liked the side dishes I made, and out of love for Do-ha, I was willing to cook for his family.
The ancestral home was more than just magnificent. Its grand and overwhelming exterior and even more impressive interior brought back memories of feeling slightly intimidated when I first visited to greet them. As I entered, my face stiffened.
An unfamiliar, yet familiar face.
Lee Soo-rin.
She was there.
At my husband’s ancestral home.
I was bewildered. Seeing Lee Soo-rin at the ancestral home unexpectedly, and her too calm smile directed at me, was utterly baffling.
“Chairman, the younger madam has arrived.”
As I entered the living room, Choi, the secretary, announced my arrival. She was the personal assistant to Yoon Myung-gil, my mother-in-law and the chairman’s wife.
“Right.”
Chairman Yoon’s calm voice was heard, and Cha, the former Minister of Education and Haeyeon’s father-in-law, was also there. When Chairman Yoon had no work, the two were always together.
“You came just in time. We have a guest to introduce you to.”
Chairman Yoon’s voice was unusually kind today. She treated her second daughter-in-law differently when guests were present and when they were not.
While greeting her in-laws, Haeyeon’s eyes met Lee Soo-rin’s briefly, but she remained silent. It was crucial not to act rashly without understanding the situation.
“Soo-rin, this is Do-ha’s wife, Min Haeyeon.”
Chairman Yoon called Soo-rin with a warm tone. Having seen her profile, Haeyeon had suspected some connection with the family, but she didn’t realize they were this close.
“Hello.”
Soo-rin greeted her calmly. Her impeccably groomed appearance suited her well.
“Yes, hello.”
As Haeyeon responded, Chairman Yoon introduced Soo-rin with a smile. This was unlike her usual demeanor.
“This is Lee Soo-rin, Do-ha’s childhood friend. They’ve been close since they were young.”
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.
