“Oh~ That expression is cool! But, Kwon Jaeha, you always make such charming expressions[—dash]it’s awkward. What if I ask you to date?”
“Come on, Park Representative. I’ve seen how you act with men you’re interested in, so what’s.”
“Did you catch that?”
She was deeply immersed in the chef’s cooking at a restaurant she frequently visited.
“Now that the publishing house has moved, there’s no excuse to meet. I’m worried about it.”
“Tell me honestly. It seems like you’re interested in that area too.”
“Is that so? But, I’m getting younger.”
“You look similar. Don’t you know that Asian women usually look at least ten years younger?”
“In that case, can I have one more?”
Asking a meaningless question, she casually picked up another piece of cake.

“Have you decided on the date for the opening celebration party?”
“Well, the last day of this month. How about Friday? After hearing Representative Kwon’s words, it seems like doing it a hundred times is right. I’m sorry for whining without knowing anything.”
“Okay. I’ll get ready accordingly.”
“Wow, wow!”
Park Sang-ah, showing her thumbs up to Jaeha, wiped her mouth with a paper napkin.
“Shall we go now?”
Having taken one more sip of coffee, Park Sang-ah picked up the bag she had put down and Jaeha picked up a box of cupcakes.
It’s the day of the first meeting in the new and fancy office.
Well, the meeting itself was quite interesting to Jaeha.
It was at the level of chatting about the weather, just presenting various ideas or showing gathered materials and having conversations—there were no fierce clashes of fangs, claws, or lively glares.
Just warm tea and sweet pastries.

“Park Representative, do you know that you’re using my title interchangeably with three different ones?”
“Do you dislike it? Representative Kwon, Kyle, Miss Jaeha—what do you like the best? Choose, show some kindness. Since you’re getting benefits every time.”
“Just call me by my name.”
“Kyle?”
“No, Jaeha.”
“Okay, the handsome author and the backbone of Spring, Miss Jaeha.”
“Oh, now two more have been added.”
Jaeha tilted her head as if to say she couldn’t stop it.
From the cupcake shop to the publishing house, it was a distance that could be covered in a 10-minute walk.
While discussing the official opening celebration party, Jaeha suddenly stopped walking.

“…!”
Park Sang-ah’s gaze followed Jaeha’s.
The man who was approaching from across the street seemed as surprised as Jaeha.
“…Hello!”
However, the man, whose expression softened quickly, reached out first, and Jaeha shook hands with him.
“It’s been a while.”
Jaeha’s somewhat stiff face immediately relaxed.
“I’ll go up first. Give me that.”
Handing the paper box in Jaeha’s hand, Park Sang-ah left with a light greeting to the newcomer.
“…”

“I heard that you came back to New York, but this coincidence…”
With a charming smile, Choi Seon-woo, who was standing there, thought.
If Kwon Jaeha hadn’t pretended not to know first, it might have just passed by.
“Yes, it’s been a while since I came back.”
Wearing a sharp designer suit, Choi Seon-woo knew was not the Kwon Jaeha he knew.
He was wearing a brown blazer over a shirt and a knit, and he had jeans on.
The sharp and intellectual gaze was still there, but the disheveled bangs were unfamiliar.
2 p.m., 7th floor of the department store.
Stopping in front of a brand, Nam-hee pointed to the clothes worn by a small mannequin.
“Oh my! Isn’t it too cute? Like a bee, right? Lion!”

“…”
“…”
Already inside the shop, Min-ah and Eun-jo looked at each other’s faces behind Nam-hee.
In the sisters’ hands, there were already several paper bags.
“Are you really going to raise them? You definitely won’t be able to do that. Instead, you might ask them to shine. Be careful.”
In response to Mina’s joke, Eunjo smirked.
“Hurry and go get them. I’ve already bought too many.”
Oh, making a sound, Mina went into the shop.
“Daonah, let’s go eat ice cream when Grandma comes out.”
“Mom, why does Grandma keep buying baby clothes? Huh?”
While shaking Daon’s hand, who was holding onto her, Eunjo laughed.

“…Yeah.”
“How many babies are there, huh? How many shiny ones! I don’t like my little brother!!”
Daon, with her own share of toys in hand, stomped her foot with a displeased expression.
“You said yesterday that you like it better than a puppy because it can talk, but your mind changed quickly, huh?”
“There are how many shiny ones, and who is Shiny Dad? Is it Mr. Kyle? I’ll call him! Right, Mom?”
Sitting down slowly and folding her knees, Eunjo aligned herself with the child’s eye level.
“Do you know what time it is in the United States, Daonah?”
“Auntie told me it’s 14 hours later than Seoul.”
“That’s right, it’s a very dark night there. But…”
Um, the child cutely nodded.

“We will go to New York together soon with Mom, Auntie, and Daonah. Maybe… you can meet Mr. Kyle too.”
With a joyful shout, the child hung onto Eunjo’s neck.
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…?
