My Husband's Lover (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 72
Yoon Seo’s words blanketed the room in silence.
Although Gil Myeong’s successor had not yet been officially designated, not a single executive present was unaware of who would sit upon that throne.
Cha Do Ha.
Since childhood, he had been the figure Chairwoman Yoon publicly showcased to solidify his standing within the business world.
Then, several years ago, he abruptly founded a company in an entirely different industry, and Chairwoman Yoon never made any official statement regarding Cha Do Ha’s independence.
Yet sometimes actions speak louder than words. Despite her silence, everyone firmly believed Cha Do Ha remained the heir apparent.
Now, however, Han Yoon Seo was subtly hinting to the executives that Cha Do Ha bore some flaw that disqualified him from inheriting Gil Myeong.
“…Are you referring to CEO Cha Do Ha?”
One executive leaned toward his microphone and asked.
At that, everyone in the conference room coughed or cleared their throats, revealing their discomfort.
After all, the successor had never been formally confirmed, and Cha Do Ha was clearly the head of a company entirely unrelated to Gil Myeong.
Thus, they generally avoided mentioning him outright in official settings.
Even though Yoon Seo had carefully spoken in roundabout terms without directly naming Cha Do Ha, the moment someone uttered his name, the room burst into open murmurs.
Yet no executive stepped in to reprimand the one who mentioned “CEO Cha Do Ha”—because they themselves were secretly curious.
Reading the room’s restless atmosphere, Yoon Seo responded to the executive’s question with only a smile.

After Being Cheated On, She Picked Up a Treasure (Female-dominant)
One-line summary: The husband I married on a whim had been secretly in love with me for a long time.
On the day when Jun Shao finally obtained the imperial decree for her marriage, Lan Qu, the person she had admired for six years, defied the decree and ran away.
Her gentleness and devotion, her promise of a lifetime together, were all disregarded by him. Instead, he dreamed of entering the palace to serve the Emperor’s sister as a sixth-rank attendant.
News of this incident spread throughout the capital, and the alleys in front of and behind the Lan mansion were crowded with people who came to watch the commotion.
Jun Shao should have been embarrassed and angry.
But someone stepped in to protect her dignity.
The figure was in a miserable state, yet still possessed an undeniable elegance and handsomeness.
The young lord struggled to climb the wall of the Lan mansion and shouted to her, “If he won’t marry you, I will!”
So, Jun Shao took advantage of the situation and married the person.
She thought the young lord did it to save the Lan family from the crime of defying the imperial decree, but never imagined that from beginning to end, what he coveted was her.

After the wedding, Jun Shao felt like she was living in a dream.
Her Wife-master was as beautiful as a fairy in a painting, skilled in the six arts, well-versed in poetry and literature, capable of being gentle and attentive, and also grand and dignified. Most importantly, she was the only one in his heart and eyes.
Jun Shao didn’t know how Lan Shiwu, as a illegitimate son without a father and blessed with beauty, had managed to preserve his purity, recklessly escape, and use his last ounce of strength to ruin his own reputation, all because of his love for her, just to stand before her.
She could only see him gazing at her with eyes full of love, and when she bestowed a name upon him, his eyes shone like stars.
“You have come to me like a weary bird perching on a branch. I shall call you A Qi.”
