Once More, Wife (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 87
“What on earth are we going to do about this?”
No sooner had she returned than Director Jin immediately fired off a barrage of words at her husband.
She’d let go of their grown children, trusting they’d manage on their own—but certainly hadn’t expected this outcome.
They’d gained nothing and, worse yet, ended up cornered like this.
For someone like her, who valued honor and dignity above all, this was utterly unacceptable.
“Were you really so blind, being friends with Chairman Kwon, that you couldn’t even sense how things were going? I knew something was off when we got that sudden, out-of-the-blue invitation! Ugh!”
Chairman Baek had also been weighed down with gloom ever since getting out of the car.
Kwon Kang Ho and Kwon Chae Ha—people he’d considered potential in-laws—had thoroughly blindsided him, and he deserved every bit of it.
Director Jin, repeatedly feeling as if icy water had been thrown over her, now struggled to regain her usual composure.
She needed to assess the situation objectively.
“Given how meticulously they set this whole trap and lured us in, this isn’t something we can just brush off. And judging by their boldness, they must have solid evidence too.”
“I agree. Those aren’t the kind of people who’d accuse us without proof.”
“Ugh… but even so, Sa Ra and Jae Young? You only defend someone after they’ve done something defensible! If this ever leaks out, the shareholders will riot! It’s not just about Baek Young—what about Sa Ra Cosmetics, Jae Young Entertainment, and my gallery too!”
Since Director Jin’s family also held shares in Baek Young, this crisis was far from theirs alone.
That fact only intensified her fury.
Male lead fell into her trap — and shattered when she walked away
This is also on my reread list!
This one is a slow burn, but when it burns, it burns hard.
Definitely worth a read, y’all!
The story follows a thousand-year-old seductive spirit who, on a bet, sets out to charm the male lead—a once-promising but unfortunate cultivator.
But just when she succeeds in making him fall for her, she heartlessly leaves, driving him to madness.
Determined to find her at all costs, he captures her, keeping her by his side no matter what, even if she hates him.
I love this kind of trope—I enjoy watching the male lead suffer in agony.
The ending drags a bit with unnecessary filler, but that’s fine.
As long as I enjoy the beginning, I’m good.
Intro

Do you dare?
Su Heng assists a divine lord in his cultivation, aiming to make him experience all the sufferings of love, so that he can attain the Great Dao.
Only after being chased down from the heavens by the divine lord, confined and completely possessed by him, does she realize how successful she has been.
