When she found out that he had delayed his graduation from a prestigious American university to come to Korea just for a woman, she was bedridden for two days.
That foxlike X in rags.
“……..”
Twentyoneyearold Yoon Eun Jo. He had received a scholarship, which suggested he was a good student, and there were rumors that he had a high nose bridge.
[Brother, what are you thinking? Did you hear what I said?] […….]His face showed no interest or even awareness of Na Na’s presence beside him.
She wanted to envelop him with both hands, making him only face her, but that beautiful face of his was looking far off into the distance.
[Brother! What are you looking at? There? What’s there…… is someone there?] [I told you to stop bothering me and leave.]He wasn’t usually this cold. Na Na swallowed a sob that felt like it could burst out at any moment.
[No…… I didn’t mean to bother you, but Seung Ho and Jenny are coming from America, so we need to arrange a time……] [I said leave.]He wanted to be alone.
He seemed quite different from how he was in America, as if his heart had been stolen away somewhere.
He used to help out readily if there was a problem, even if he didn’t accept her as a woman.
But now he had become a completely different person.
Even his gaze was different.
His eyes, which used to be only cool and clear, were now giving off a strange light and shaking in confusion. Na Na didn’t miss that.
And then, at some point, the face that kept overlapping in Kwon Jae Ha’s gaze from time to time.
A white and pretty face, a female student with a quiet demeanor.
It was Yoon Eun Jo.
Wang Na Na, spitting out a low curse, recalled the scene in New York and took out another cigarette.
But her trembling hands dropped the lighter.
She wanted to erase him from her memory, but she knew she would never be able to.
In the car filled with hazy smoke, Wang Na Na muttered.
“That X should’ve just died back then.”
“Starting from today, there won’t be any overtime work. Everyone leaves on time. Those who haven’t used their monthly or annual leaves should sort it out for themselves.”
At Team Leader Jang’s words, the employees couldn’t hide their subtle joy.
What was this?
If this wasn’t a case of the heavens aiding only Kwon Jae Ha, what else could it be explained as?
Having heard the miraculous order to clock out sharp from their boss for the first time in five years of office life.
But to Eun Jo, it sounded like a divine revelation to serve her ‘new employer’ instead of the cursed company.
The interns and junior designers were busy making plans like young friends should.
Being a designer might look decent on the surface, but it was a profession with many allnighters and frequent headaches.
However, they were fortunate to have a straightforward and dedicated boss, and all their colleagues and juniors got along well and were friendly.
She had thought it was a quite satisfying job she could stay in for a long time.
Did she really need to make a new portfolio?
Eun Jo sighed heavily as she looked at the office across from her that was being newly decorated.
Was it not enough to serve him at home, did she have to face him at the office too?
Looking closely, she would have ended up meeting him anyway, even if it hadn’t been for Min Ah.
Kwon Jae Ha, although he had a difficult and peculiar personality, was a meticulous man when it came to work.
She had seen a news article about him doing more than his part as the future owner leading the prestigious Alexis family in America.
She had also seen a picture of him with his beautiful blonde, blueeyed fiancée.
There were articles that aroused public curiosity about how if a child was born between the two, so on and so forth.
She had never read those articles in detail.
“…….”
Anyway, what’s going on with Seon Woo and Min Ah Eun Jo revisited the day a few days ago when she had invited Seon Woo to her house.
Was that strange current between the two, just her imagination?
Eun Jo tried moving the cursor on the computer monitor into the shape of a heart.
♡…… ♡……
For now, it was clear that Min Ah’s eyes had transformed into hearts.
Add to that her kind voice and soft gaze. She seemed to be exuding an intense feminine charm.
Min Ah was sincere in making food for Seon Woo and the result was quite successful.
She was a bit of a goofball, though.
Objectively speaking, she had a pretty face. Above all, her positive personality was her great charm.
But still, could it be……
Eun Jo shook her head slightly, trying to calm her scattered thoughts.
The curse of Wang Nana eventually showed itself that evening.
Merely brushing past that face was terribly ominous for Eun Jo.
After creating such a commotion in the office.
She should have been careful, suspecting the rest of the day could go horribly wrong.
She packed her stuff at the stroke of the hour, just as the team leader had ordered her to clock out, and naturally headed for the front door.
Had she known an unwelcome guest was waiting for her, she might have run out the back door.
But where would she run to if she did?
To Kwon Jae Ha?
Frowning, Eun Jo looked around, wondering what would happen if someone saw her.
“……What’s going on, showing up like this without a call, and at my office too.”
“……Hello.”
The man had become sullen while she wasn’t looking.
He had grown a bit gloomy, but his delicate atmosphere remained, perhaps because he was the precious only son of his family.
“Kyu Ho, I don’t have much time. Let’s go somewhere for a cup of tea.”
Yes the man obediently nodded.

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.
