It seemed that there was no one in that family worthy of respect except Heo Young Joo.
And even she was in deep contemplation about what to do next.
Ever since Woo Joo appeared, the contacts had become less frequent, a sign that things weren’t going well.
It was disappointing, but even the help of her father didn’t seem to make any difference.
Unable to achieve the desired result, Baek Sara carefully concealed her frustration and impatience.
After putting Chairman Baek to bed, he groaned as if his head was aching.
“Don’t stand out in your mother’s eyes for no reason and go quickly. I’m also going to sleep early.”
“Yes, I’ll turn off the light.”
Thud, the light in the room was turned off.
But the desire for Kwon Chae Ha in Baek Sa Ra’s heart didn’t cease; it only continued to burn.
It was a massive ember that would never disappear until she had him in her hands.
With that ember that seemed to swallow her up, Baek Sa Ra decided to make her first move in this strategic game.
From the top, if negotiations with the peak failed, then this time, she would start from the very bottom.
“What’s going on?”
Chae Ha, who had to leave work late because of a backlog of work, stopped upon finding Seol Won’s shadow on the living room sofa.
“Min Seol Won, honey.”
“….”
Instead of answering, Seol Won, who seemed half out of her mind, was reflected in the large glass window in the darkness.
Something seemed to be wrong, so Chae Ha quickly put his bag down and approached her.
“What happened? Why is your face like that?”
“… Kwon Chae Ha?”
At the sound of her voice in his ear, Seol Won finally snapped out of it and turned around.
With a very serious face, Chae Ha was bending down next to her.
“What happened between you and Woo Ju?”
“Ah… ”
As Seol Won muttered without strength, Chae Ha’s face rapidly darkened.
Seeing his expression, Seol Won felt she had to spill the beans about what had happened in the evening.
“What? Woo Ju got a girlfriend?”
“…Not yet a girlfriend. He received a confession.”
With a gloomy face, Seol Won recalled the story Woo Ju had told her earlier.
Woo Ju, who had returned home with an unusually bright face today, threw a bombshell as soon as he put his bag down.
‘Mom, mom! What is a match made in heaven?’
‘What? A match made in heaven?’
‘Yeah! Today, a friend named Star in our Rabbit class said she likes Woo Ju~ The teacher then said that just hearing the names Woo Ju and Star sounds like a match made in heaven!’
While the story was cute and adorable, it could only be a great shock to Seol Won.
On the other hand, Chae Ha covered his mouth with his hand and held back a laugh.
“So, you’re upset because our son has a girlfriend?”
“He’s not a girlfriend yet, okay? When I asked Woo Ju, he said she’s just a good friend from the Rabbit class.”
“So why are you worrying so much?”
“Just……”
Seol Won’s words faded away.
Eventually, Chae Ha withdrew his hand and let out a low laugh.
“Well, it seems our son is already making girls cry. Well, the kid has charm, doesn’t he?”
“You’re quite at ease…”
Seol Won looked at Chae Ha as if she felt wronged.
At that, Chae Ha looked at her and smiled as if to tease her more.
“I thought I was the only one with jealousy in this house, but it turns out there’s one more. Min Seol Won, I’m talking about you.”
“……I’m not jealous.”
“Don’t pretend. You’ve been staring blankly outside as if you’ve lost your soul.”
“That’s because…… the scenery is good.”
“Sometimes when my wife acts clumsily like this, I feel like I’m going to snap. It’s already pitch black outside, what scenery were you appreciating alone?”
“…….”
Feeling her cheeks uncontrollably heat up, Seol Won quickly stood up from her seat.
“I should go to bed.”
“Wait.”
As she tried to pass by Chae Ha to head towards the stairs, he grabbed her hand.
His eyes were wandering over Seol Won’s cheeks, flushed like an apple.
Soon, Chae Ha let out a soft breath and spoke.
“You should listen to the end. Min Seol Won. To be honest, I get jealous too.”
“…….”
“Yet, the feeling of identifying with you as a parent, it’s not too bad.”
At his words, Seol Won felt a peculiar emotion.
She thought he was just teasing, but in fact, he empathized with her feelings.
She thought that Kwon Chae Ha was the one who knew least about her feelings in the world, but at this moment, Seol Won was freshly realizing that he was indeed the father of the universe.
And such a mood created a strangely thrilling atmosphere between the two standing in the living room at night.
“Ah, excuse me…….”
Feeling the need to remove her hand that was being held, Seol Won twitched her fingertips.
But at that moment, a surprising thing happened.
“……!”
At the sudden change in her perspective, Seol Won blinked rapidly without uttering a word.
What should have reflected in her eyes as a wall was surprisingly the ceiling and, Chae Ha’s face.
Yes. He had abruptly lifted Seol Won into his arms.
Their faces were too close to each other.
Moreover, being completely buried in his chest, she could hear his heartbeat right next to her ear.
A heartbeat that was faster if not slower than hers, it was definitely not slow.
After a while, Chae Ha slowly opened his mouth and whispered.
“You can be as jealous as you want. You have me.”
“Kwon…… Mr. Chae Ha.”
“Seeing my wife looking so down, I’ll personally carry you upstairs as a special service.”
“No, it’s okay. I can walk.”
As Seol Won flapped her hands in panic, Chae Ha held her even tighter in his arms.
Then, he deliberately moved his face closer.
Sensing a crisis as their lips seemed about to touch, Seol Won finally kept her mouth shut.
“I know very well that you’re not doing this because you can’t walk. Don’t worry. I’ll lay you gently on the bed, so relax.”
“I didn’t, didn’t use force!”
Seol Won, seemingly aggrieved, fluttered her trembling eyelids to stare at Chae Ha.
However, it was indeed a terrible move.
As his eyes seemed to blaze intensely, a low whisper descended upon her lips.
“If you’re doing this on purpose, then I admit defeat. Min Seol Won.”
“……?”
“Let’s try it too. The thing that naturally comes to couples.”

Ex-husband Wants Reconciliation
One-line summary: Chasing the wife to the crematorium (making an effort to attract someone who has become indifferent), the female lead doesn’t look back, the second male lead takes the position.
Intro:
To repay the kindness of the older generation, Su Mu crossed into a female-dominated world and became a live-in daughter-in-law of the Yan family, single-handedly saving the Yan family from fire and water.
But her husband, Yan Jiyue, the eldest son of the Yan family, treated her with sarcasm and never showed her a good face.
It wasn’t until after Su Mu’s death that this pampered and arrogant young master shed a few fake tears and pretended to want to die for love.
This life’s kindness was enough. If there was a next life, she would definitely kick Yan Jiyue away.
Who knew that the heavens would be so kind as to allow her to be reborn, returning to the time when she had just married into the Yan family.
Su Mu glanced at the Yan eldest son, who still spoke coldly to her, and threw a divorce letter in front of him.
“Let’s divorce!”
***
Yan Jiyue never imagined that he would be reborn. He happily went to find Su Mu, wanting to make up for the mistakes he had made in his ignorant youth.
Wasn’t the reason the heavens allowed him to be reborn to let him reconcile with Su Mu?
But when he pushed open the door to Su Mu’s room, the person lying on the bed was another man.
Su Mu’s personal attendant, Xie Yi.
Yan Jiyue hated him so much that his teeth itched. In front of Su Mu, Xie Yi was a gentle and considerate whisperer of sweet nothings, but in reality, he was vicious-hearted and deliberately sabotaged their husband and wife relationship.
In the previous life, it was he who secretly hid in Su Mu’s coffin and committed suicide, stealing a step ahead of him to be buried with Su Mu.
Yan Jiyue’s eyes were filled with hatred as he cursed, “What kind of thing are you? Your background is lowly, what right do you have to occupy Su Mu?”
Xie Yi looked at the sleeping Su Mu and no longer pretended to be a whisperer of sweet nothings.
He proudly stuck out his belly, “I have the right because my belly is capable of giving the Wife-master a daughter.”
***
Yan Jiyue was consumed with jealousy. He spread rumors that Xie Yi had once been branded with the mark of a “harlot” on his chest.
But on the night Xie Yi cut off the flesh bearing that mark, Su Mu suddenly realized something was amiss.
“How did you know the exact moment I was poisoned? And why did you show up a month early?”
Xie Yi remained silent, blood from his wound soaking through his robes. His sapphire eyes brimmed with anguish – or was it just a flawless act?
Between a once-arrogant husband now seeking redemption, and a gentle soul willing to die for her – who truly held the darkest secrets? And could it be that Su Mu and Yan Jiyue weren’t the only ones given a second chance at life…?
