…Darn it. Does this even make sense? Pregnant, and for about three months.
Cha Sang-yoon, who caused a commotion at the beginning of their marriage, insisting on not sharing a room. Nana had no desire to share a room with him in the first place.
First of all, the narrowed bed, shared with anyone, was unimaginable.
The experiences of lying in bed with Sang-yoon were countless, but that had nothing to do with love or marriage.
But as they say, people don’t change their habits. Without blaming each other, Sang-yoon and Nana, driven by greed, secretly sneaked into each other’s rooms.
They used to do such things before marriage, and neither blamed themselves nor each other.
“…3 months. When on earth?”
Unable to accept the reality in her right mind, Nana naturally relied on alcohol. And as an excuse to get drunk, she often crawled into Sang-yoon’s bed.
However, it didn’t relieve the stress. Lee Hye-jung, day and night, for various reasons, tormented Nana.
Nana, dressed in a hanbok that didn’t suit her life, also tried her luck. The sight of it was so ridiculous and pitiful. Even thinking about it now gives me chills.
“…This is crazy.”

That woman is crazy, and I am too. Nana, who spat out curses, remembered a friend who cried and caused a fuss claiming she was pregnant.
She was in a situation where she had another man’s child while having an engagement.
She shed tears like chicken droppings, saying she would die, but precisely four months later, she wore a wedding dress in perfect condition. Showing off her waist that was thinner than an ant…
“If you need information later, just tell me. It seems like a dream, right? I went to sleep and woke up, and all my worries disappeared.”
“Crazy [Star Icon], it might be nice. Then you’re going to hell! Later? Am I you? Making stupid mistakes like a fool?”
At that time, Nana laughed while holding her belly.
“…”
“Hey! Why are you thinking so hard?”
Hye-jung, whose gaze had been watching for a long time, was sharp, but Nana didn’t reply.
There seemed to be no problem going to hell. No, she was already in hell. Being in that woman’s house, in the Cha family, and being pregnant—what could be more horrible?

Her heart was already hardening in the wrong direction.
“…”
“Do you want me to guess what you’re thinking?”
Hye-jung, who was drinking cheerfully, knew exactly what it meant.
“Do it if you want; I don’t care.”
Nana doesn’t resist. It’s okay to go to hell; that thought came to her. No, she was already in hell. Being in that woman’s house, in the Cha family, and being pregnant—what could be more horrible?
Her heart was already hardening in the wrong direction.
“…”
“Hey, Nana.”
Hye-jung, who put down her teacup on the table, called her daughter-in-law’s name. The tone was so affectionate that it was chilling.

Nana, clenching her teeth, stared fixedly at the ceiling without any movement. She already expected the next comment from that crazy woman.
“…”
“I’m warning you. It’s better not to even dream of foolish thoughts.”
As expected, her mother-in-law’s voice was infinitely affectionate, more so than ever before.
“From today, I will manage you thoroughly, so understand that. Starting today, let’s sleep together in my room.”
“What? What are you saying?”
This is nonsense[Dash]Nana’s enlarged eyes eventually turned to Hye-jung.
“Why are you surprised? I’ve liked you until now, but from today, I’ll treat you like a new toy. Understand that.”
A child. How is this luck possible? Lee Hye-jung couldn’t control the laughter that naturally came out.
Marrying into a chaebol family, and that too, as the daughter-in-law of DL Group’s chairman. But having a child was necessary to permanently maintain that tie.
Although there were concerns about the son and the naive daughter-in-law using separate rooms, it eventually became a knot in the eternal money line.

“You had a poor appetite. You kept saying it was due to stress, like a child. Think about what you want to eat; something must be appealing to your taste……”
“No! I don’t have anything like that!!”
Aaargh[Dash]the sound of Nana’s newly-born scream made the hospital door creak open.
“Happy New Year.”
“Yeah, Happy New Year.”
Beyond midnight, Jae was hugging Eun-jo from behind as she watched the fireworks bursting all over the city.
“…It’s impressive. It’s so beautiful that it’s blinding, but it looks a bit dangerous. Don’t you think?”
“I know there are accidents. I’ve known about it, but it never concerned me. Anyway, don’t go near such places.”
Holding her tighter, Jaeha made fatherly remarks, causing Eunjo to burst into laughter.
“I don’t think I can sleep.”

“Why? Is taking a flight burdensome? If your condition isn’t great, let’s postpone it.”
Jaeha, who suddenly changed the tone of his voice, turned Eunjo around.
“No, there’s nothing uncomfortable or anything like that. It’s just when I think about Seoul… I’m a bit nervous. Is it a good kind of tension? There, it’s really my home.”
“Now it’s our home. You’ll like it even more when you see it for real.”
Nodding, Eunjo wrapped her arms around Jaeha’s waist.
“Yes, our home.”
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.
