When a cute voice mixed with a nasal tone reached him, Jaeha closed his eyes for a moment, then opened them.
Feeling suffocated, he grabbed his tight tie, pulled it forcefully, and bit his teeth.
“Shut up. Answer my question. You, did you come to my engagement ceremony? Right?”
Nana was perplexed. The words were so rigid and cold, unlike anything she had heard before.
[…Why bring that up all of a sudden.]“I said answer. It’s not a question. Just answer properly.”
His suppressed emotions, tightly closed seams, and the emerging voice were undoubtedly filled with boiling anger.
[Yeah, I went… Why are you scaring me like this, Oppa? Huh?]“With Eunjo, right?”
“If you don’t want trouble, answer properly.”
[What’s all this… I met him! Yes, he was at the hotel, and he suggested going up together, so I…]“You’re talking nonsense. You were alone. Since you asked a question, pretend you don’t know and ask.”
[…!]“Wang Nana, listen well. You’re disappearing from now on. Understand? You’ll barely breathe and live. I won’t say anything more. If you don’t want to end up like shit, [dash] no, not that. If anyone dares to touch my nerves again [dash] I’ll wipe them all out, whether it’s a jerk or whatever, so be prepared.”
As soon as Jaeha finished speaking, he spat out curses while throwing his phone aside.
Afterward, there were incomprehensible murmurs, rough curses, and repeated words of curses towards someone for a while.
And for a while, he covered his face with both hands and made sounds like an animal whimpering.
Secretary Kang, who was driving, remained silent, concentrating only on driving. Jaeha attempted to call Eunjo, but the call couldn’t connect.
There was no other way. She had purposely avoided Director Ma herself.
“Are we far?”
After pulling himself together, Jaeha, who had picked up the phone that had been rolling on the floor, asked.
“I’m almost there, arriving in 6 minutes.”
The reflection of Kwon Jaeha’s face in the rearview mirror was extremely pale.
With bloodshot eyes and a constant wiping of his face with his hand, he seemed drained.
Meanwhile, Secretary Kang, who had been focusing on the low murmur of his boss, couldn’t understand it. The entrance of the cathedral came into view.
Inside the cathedral, the last ceremony was taking place.
Having finished the farewell greetings long ago, Lee Jinyoung was watching people’s farewells from a distance, just like Eunjo did.
In a solemn and serious moment, everyone’s heads turned to her at once.
“……!”
Right next to where Jinyoung stood, the entrance door opened with a creak.
She looked at the man in a black suit with surprised eyes.
The man, struggling to control his rough breathing, was [dash] undoubtedly [dash]!
“Are you Kyle Alexis? Mr. Kwon Jaeha, right?”
“Do you know me?”
As if uninterested, Jaeha’s eyes quickly scanned the cathedral.
Nowhere. Where the hell did she go?
Touching his forehead, Jaeha closed his eyes for a moment. After reopening them, he tried to find her figure again, but it was in vain.
As if expecting him to turn his gaze towards her, the woman who seemed to recognize him nodded as if waiting.
“You came and left. Eunjo unnie, right? The person you’re looking for.”
Upon hearing about Yun Eunjo’s whereabouts, Jinyoung shouted to Jaeha, who had turned his back.
“Thank you! Everyone is thankful! Good luck!”
Jaeha, pointing at the passenger seat with his hand, said, “I’ll drive; you’re too slow. It’s driving me crazy.”
“No, I’ll do it.”
Secretary Kang’s attitude and voice were firmer than ever before.
Jaeha, who had furrowed his brows for a moment, soon climbed into the back seat.
It felt like falling into a pit of hell.
The hot and sharp shards of glass were mixed in every breath, inhaling and exhaling pain.
Breathing itself was now engulfed in an unfamiliar pain that he had never experienced before.
Trying to reach for the water bottle, he extended his hand, but no strength entered it as if it wasn’t his own body.
“Increase the speed a bit more.”
Jaeha moved his lips with difficulty.
Eunjo hesitated for a long time at the entrance of the apartment.
Although the apartment was already good, the newly decorated promenade inside the complex looked exceptionally splendid.
“……. Well, it’s supposed to look new and fantastic.”
In her eyes, strangely enough, it was the same as six years ago.
Thinking only of Mina and the child.
When she turned away, reassuring herself that everything was fine, just like back then, the same appearance.
Cold sweat entered her clenched fist.
Was there a need to go up?
He had offered to give her the house before leaving, and Eunjo had naturally refused.
[Then give it to someone else. Anyway, you handle it yourself.]Jaeha was very calm, making Eunjo even more despondent.
It felt like she was paying some kind of price, as if giving and receiving.
“…….”
The house was so cold that it felt deserted.
My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)
Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.
Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.
Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.
“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”
Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.
A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.
“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”
Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.
Gu Sui: “……”
He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?
Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.
Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.
Hmm… she looked a little familiar.
It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.
Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.
“Finally, I found you.”
