My Husband's Lover (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 6
A light blouse with pearl shirring beneath a thin trench coat, paired with a tight red skirt. The vivid color combination—potentially appearing vulgar on anyone else—became mesmerizingly elegant on Lee Su Rin.
“Let’s go this way.”
Su Rin led the way, guiding Do Ha and his group forward. Do Ha, seemingly unaware of her presence, walked off in the opposite direction with a middle-aged gentleman. As Su Rin passed by, her coral-colored lips curved into a subtle smirk. Hae Yeon watched her, strands of rich brown hair swaying gently.
Su Rin deliberately turned her head slightly to the left, locking clear, unwavering eye contact with Hae Yeon.
Even though Do Ha was still speaking with the older man, Su Rin acted as though she were flaunting the current situation.
“Next time, let’s invite Do Hee too.”
Joo Ah’s voice snapped Hae Yeon out of her thoughts. Even though Joo Ah spoke from right beside her, Hae Yeon couldn’t focus. She desperately wanted to separate Do Ha from Su Rin immediately—but lacked a valid reason. After all, they hadn’t come alone, and Do Ha remained completely unaware of Su Rin’s true nature and what she’d done to Hae Yeon.
Besides, why should she willingly step onto a stage Su Rin had so carefully set?
Acting rashly might only alert Do Ha or Joo Ah to something amiss.
“Min Hae Yeon. Hey. What’s on your mind? You didn’t even answer.”
Hae Yeon turned, the corners of her eyes softening gently. But inside, she was listing countless rational reasons why she shouldn’t go to Do Ha.
“Joo Ah.”
“Hmm?”
But still—
“Sorry. I just spotted someone I know. I’ll go say hello quickly and be right back.”
“Oh, okay! Go ahead.”
Unable to find any reason to simply stand by while Su Rin openly provoked and flirted with her husband, Hae Yeon stood up.
She stepped willingly onto the stage the other woman had prepared. As she walked toward them, there was no trace of hesitation in her stride. Hae Yeon’s clear eyes sparkled with sharp intelligence—enough to steal the attention of everyone in the pub, yet she moved forward without pause.
Behind her glass, Su Rin’s lips left a bold imprint as they curled into a knowing smile. Her eyes fixed on Min Hae Yeon, who had just risen from a distant table.
“By the way, everyone here is married. How lonely must single people feel?”
Su Rin, having wiped the sneer off her face, now pettishly pouted toward Professor Park and Do Ha as she caressed her glass. Though her tone carried clear intent, Professor Park—oblivious to her motive—reacted exactly as she’d hoped.
“Su Rin, are you still single?”
Su Rin was never clumsy with her expressions. To Professor Park’s surprised question, she responded only with a quiet smile. Interpreting it his own way, the professor clicked his tongue sympathetically.
“I always thought you and Do Ha would make a lovely couple.”
His wistful tone trailed off as he reconsidered, mindful of those present. Do Ha, typically reserved, merely drank his drink silently in response to the professor’s remark.
“Wait—Su Rin, could it be you’re still not dating because…?”
Suddenly, Professor Park’s phone vibrated on the table.
“Oh—got a call.”
As the professor stood and stepped away briefly, Su Rin slowly took hold of Do Ha’s glass. Do Ha furrowed his brow and finally met her eyes. Noticing Min Hae Yeon crossing the large hall toward them, Su Rin leaned slightly forward and whispered,
“Aren’t you curious about what the professor was about to say next?”
Do Ha’s brow twitched faintly. Su Rin arched her eyes beautifully while subtly extending one slender leg beneath the table. Their table was cramped—they’d arrived without a reservation—and Su Rin seized the confined space as an opportunity to become even more provocative.
She shifted her left leg outward slightly, letting it brush against Do Ha’s calf. Though his eyes sharpened, she didn’t care—the distance between Min Hae Yeon and them was shrinking.
Su Rin leaned in abruptly, bringing her face close to Do Ha’s profile. From afar, they looked as if they were about to kiss.
“I’m joking. So don’t look at me with that angry face.”
“…”
“You’re scaring me.”
After speaking, Su Rin pulled back, her eyes—now playful—lingering on Do Ha’s sculpted lips. A restless flutter stirred deep in her stomach, impossible to ignore. She was also surprised: despite their four-year separation, her desire for Cha Do Ha surged with the exact same intensity as before.
She decided—she truly had to have him.
“Lee Su Rin.”
At that moment, a low voice cut through the changing music. Do Ha, his gaze fixed firmly on Su Rin, spoke coldly.
“You’re taking this joke too far.”
He smiled as he said it, but the smile carried an icy edge. Su Rin forced her eyes into a gentle curve.
“I’m married. Please refrain from this kind of joking going forward.”
“…”
Su Rin bit her lip instinctively but didn’t back down. Her seduction of Cha Do Ha had only just begun. Regaining her composure, she silently counted in her head—until she finally heard the voice she’d been waiting for.
“Mr. Do Ha.”
At the sound of Min Hae Yeon’s voice, Su Rin turned her head. Contrary to her expectations, Hae Yeon greeted her with a serene, refined smile—causing Su Rin’s brow to twitch in irritation. Do Ha looked momentarily startled, then quickly softened into a warm smile.
“Are you meeting Ms. Joo Ah here?”
Seeing Do Ha smile so affectionately—displaying an expression he rarely showed even to his own younger sister, Do Hee—Su Rin found it difficult to control her expression. The sweetness of his smile for Hae Yeon alone left a bitter taste in her mouth.
“Yes. We arrived early.”
The couple exchanged familiar, warm smiles before finally seeming to remember the third person present and shifting their gaze toward Su Rin. Though humiliated, Su Rin quickly composed herself, mindful of Do Ha.
“Oh, this is Lee Su Rin—my friend’s younger sister.”
“Hello, I’m Lee Su Rin.”
Do Ha introduced her calmly, his gaze steady and undisturbed. As Su Rin rose to offer a polite greeting, Hae Yeon’s next words caused her dark eyes to flicker faintly.
“Nice to meet you. I’ve heard a lot about you from Mr. Do Ha.”
Hae Yeon’s words clearly signaled she regarded Su Rin as nothing more than a friend’s little sister—nothing beyond that. In that instant, Su Rin reacted uncharacteristically, driven by emotion.
“I’ve also heard a lot—especially about last year—”
“Hae Yeon.”
But Su Rin couldn’t finish her sentence.
“Is it really okay to leave Ms. Joo Ah alone? Since it’s been so long since you two had drinks together, shouldn’t you spend more time with her?”
Do Ha’s seemingly kind words conveyed only genuine concern for his wife enjoying time with her friend. Coupled with his tender gaze and warm tone, Hae Yeon almost forgot he’d just cut Su Rin off mid-sentence.
“Ah… it’s fine. I already told Joo Ah I’d be back.”
Hae Yeon stammered her reply. She knew well that Do Ha was normally reserved, especially with strangers—and though never rude or arrogant, his current behavior left her flustered.
An awkward silence briefly settled over the three—until Professor Park, having finished his call, approached them.
“Do Ha, is that your wife?”
“Yes, Professor. This is my wife, Hae Yeon. Hae Yeon, say hello—this is Professor Park Su Cheol, my university mentor.”
At Do Ha’s introduction, Hae Yeon bowed politely.
“Hello, I’m Min Hae Yeon.”
“Pleasure to meet you. I wanted to attend your wedding, but I was overseas at the time. Hae Yeon, is Do Ha treating you well as a husband? I certainly never taught him how to do that.”
Hae Yeon laughed brightly at the professor’s teasing remark. Do Ha watched her with evident fondness—looking every bit the devoted husband.
“Do Ha, shouldn’t you return to your wife’s table?”
At the professor’s words, Do Ha glanced toward Hae Yeon, his expression asking if she wanted him to accompany her. Hae Yeon shook her head with a smile.
“No, it’s fine. I have company too. It was nice meeting you.”
“Oh dear, what a shame. Hey, Do Ha—come by the house sometime.”
“Of course, Professor. I’ll invite you next time.”
After finishing, Do Ha leaned toward Hae Yeon and whispered, his smile deepening.
“Please pass on my regards to Ms. Joo Ah.”
“I will. See you at home.”
“Alright. Get home safely.”
As Do Ha saw her off, Hae Yeon glanced sideways at Su Rin. Their eyes met—and Hae Yeon made a subtle gesture meant only for Su Rin to understand. Su Rin raised one eyebrow in response. Unfazed, Hae Yeon turned and returned to her original seat.
As she walked back, Hae Yeon’s mind raced. Do Ha’s actions had been unexpected, yet they’d yielded valuable insight: he’d deliberately cut Su Rin off—clearly trying to hide something about last year from her.
Now, Hae Yeon wanted to investigate Joo Ah’s gift incident thoroughly—to confirm once and for all whether she had truly lost her memories.
“Was the person you went to greet Mr. Do Ha?”
As Hae Yeon returned to the table, Joo Ah asked—she must have been watching.
“It turned out that way.”
“Okay, fine for the middle-aged man—but isn’t that other woman Lee Su Rin?”
For a moment, Hae Yeon was surprised Joo Ah knew Su Rin. But then again, Lee Su Rin was a direct heir in a major corporation, embroiled in succession battles—so of course Joo Ah, a current executive from another wealthy family, would know her.
“Yeah, that’s right. She said she’s Mr. Do Ha’s friend’s younger sister.”
“Friend’s younger sister? Oh, I guess that makes sense.”
Knowing Mi-Bon Group’s eldest son and Gil Myeong Group’s second son were friends, Joo Ah dismissed it casually. Hae Yeon’s drink remained untouched, though Joo Ah, absorbed in her own glass, didn’t notice.
After a few more drinks—
“Ah—what a great mood!”
Joo Ah exclaimed, slamming down her empty glass.
“Yeah, Joo Ah. Let’s wrap it up while we’re still in high spirits.”
“Really? Aw, just one more drink—”
Hae Yeon helped the tipsy Joo Ah into the car. Fortunately, they had a driver.
“I’ll leave her in your care, driver.”
Joo Ah’s chauffeur bowed slightly. Once the car pulled away, Hae Yeon didn’t immediately leave—instead, she stepped into the narrow alley beside the pub. Her posture was straight and graceful, not at all like someone who’d been drinking.
It was late night—only the slurred voices of drunk passersby echoed through the alley.
Click, click.
The sharp sound of heels—utterly out of place in the grimy alley—cut clearly even through the noisy street. Though merely the sound of ordinary shoes, it pierced through the cacophony with elegant clarity.
“You arrived faster than I expected.”
The alley was dark, buildings nearly touching. Yet Hae Yeon spoke without confirming the speaker’s identity.
“It’s because someone gave such obvious cues.”
Below slender legs, ankles appeared dangerously thin above impossibly high stilettos.
It was Lee Su Rin.
“So, why did you call me here?”
Only then did Hae Yeon lift her head, meeting Su Rin’s beautiful, direct gaze.
Her impeccably maintained, glossy hair rippled with elegant grace, as if it might make a sound. Su Rin radiated an aura of arrogant self-assurance—someone who never cared what others thought—and even now, she displayed her unique, refined poise.
“Isn’t it time you stopped?”
Hae Yeon’s voice was unusually cold, far from her usual tone.
“Ha.”
Su Rin stared straight into Hae Yeon’s face. Hae Yeon’s unwavering gaze—blinking not once—gave away nothing, making it impossible to decipher her meaning. Without shifting her eyes, Hae Yeon added,
“You know it yourself—there’s no hope.”
“…”
“No matter how much you scheme with my husband, to Mr. Do Ha, you’ll always just be someone playing games.”
It was a blunt declaration: no matter what Su Rin did, Do Ha would never see her as a woman. Su Rin’s dark eyes glinted in the shadows.
“So if you don’t want to feel even more pathetic, why not just give up? And please, never pull such low-class tricks again.”
Ending with a faint, dismissive smile, Hae Yeon left the shabby alley. After Min Hae Yeon vanished into the darkness, Su Rin—still unmoving—finally spoke in a low voice.
“…Give up?”
Her words, meant for no one, fell emptily to the ground like a hollow echo. Even as a loud “Cheers!” rang out from a nearby building, Su Rin didn’t flinch. Hidden in the unlit shadows, her face remained obscured.
“I never even started.”
Her heavy words dissolved into the darkness. She knew Do Ha didn’t see her as a woman—in fact, she knew it better than anyone. That was why, during the days she’d obsessed over how to approach him as a woman rather than just a “younger sister,” his sudden marriage announcement had shattered her.
When her older brother told her about Do Ha’s wedding, it felt as if the sky had collapsed.
He’d started dating seemingly out of nowhere—and married within months. Stunned by the thunderbolt news, Su Rin couldn’t bear to witness Do Ha’s wedding. She fled to England as if running away, desperately working to erase Cha Do Ha from her mind.
Her chosen method was work.
She threw herself into it obsessively. But when business brought her back to Korea—and after learning about Do Ha’s circumstances—she couldn’t let go. Convinced any woman would naturally step aside upon learning her husband had a lover, Su Rin resolved to use Min Hae Yeon.
Yet now, everything felt utterly ruined. Not only was Min Hae Yeon still firmly by Do Ha’s side—she’d also inflicted upon Su Rin a humiliation unlike any she’d ever known in her life.
“If I’d intended to end things this easily, I wouldn’t have even called you, Min Hae Yeon.”
Su Rin’s eyes gleamed with fury even in the dim streetlight, radiating anger at a level she didn’t even recognize in herself.
“Guess you don’t know the saying—‘If they give you a bushel, give them back a word.’ ”
With an eerie chuckle, Su Rin bit down on her reddish lips.
She’d convinced herself this was trivial—especially compared to what Min Hae Yeon would soon face.
Pushing her dark hair back in the poorly lit alley, Su Rin pulled her phone from her dust bag. Her voice, as low as her gaze, immediately called her secretary.
“There’s something new I need you to investigate.”
[Understood, Director.]As she heard the reply, Su Rin’s mind replayed the earlier scene.
– “I’ve also heard a lot—especially about last year—”
– “Hae Yeon.”
Do Ha interrupting her so uncharacteristically felt far too unnatural to be merely about awkwardness. And then there was Min Hae Yeon—who, on their very first meeting, had shown absolutely no reaction when Su Rin mentioned “the incident.”
It might be nothing. But right now, even the smallest detail mattered.
“Start the investigation on Min Hae Yeon from scratch. This time, go into more detail—focus especially on hospital records.”
[Yes, understood.]After hanging up, Su Rin walked out of the dark alley and addressed someone who wasn’t there.
“We’ll see who ends up hitting rock bottom.”
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~
