The day Natalie Wiseman left.
Jae Ha had received a report about the past connection between Sang Yoon and Eun Jo.
“There is no particular content to report about the relationship between Ms. Yoon Eun Jo and Mr. Cha Sang Yoon.”
“What about the relationships of the people around them?”
“Mr. Cha Sang Yoon’s younger sister, Cha Ha Yoon, has finished her studies in England and recently entered the country. She met Ms. Yoon Eun Jo to greet her and Mr. Cha Sang Yoon did accompany them briefly, but there were no unusual issues……”
“Hold on, what is this picture?”
A picture of a woman taken at Hotel H caught Jae Ha’s eye.
The number of the red sedan was none other than.
“Ah, the owner of the car 6209 is Wang Nana, the youngest daughter of the DL Group. Considering the circumstances, it’s accurate to say that Mr. Cha Sang Yoon has maintained a very close relationship with Ms. Wang Nana, rather than with Ms. Yoon Eun Jo.”
Close?
Jae Ha swallowed a laugh that seemed ready to burst out.
What a dignified and elegant expression.
It might be trying to match the dignity of an employer who pays a lot of money.
However, what Cha Sang Yoon and Wang Nana were doing was no different from the slums.
In some of the pictures, there were also figures of people passing something secret to the two.

“You’ve done well. I would like to know more details about the relationship between Cha Sang Yoon and Wang Nana. The sooner the better. And the same goes for the man who got out of this grey SUV.”
“Yes.”
It was filthy and disgusting.
The mere fact that they had temporarily attached Eun Jo to them made him feel bad.
“Wang Nana, I like this the most out of all the things you’ve done so far.”
He knew it was all an act, that she was playing the demure lady, fawning as if she only knew Kwon Jae Ha as a man.
It was so funny that he laughed.
What was that proverb?
Kill two birds with one stone?
Yes, see the lover and pick the mulberry!
Hahaha As if this was something extraordinarily fun. In the end, he burst out laughing.
In Korea, it’s called Odie. In America, it’s known as mulberry.
The very sweet taste of the deep purple fruit, which is also known to be used for ‘medicinal’ purposes, is memorable.

What Cha Sang Yoon and Wang Nana were tasting might have the same name.
But in terms of content, it’s extremely negative and dangerous.
“It seems easier to clean than I thought.”
After being intoxicated by the sense of victory for a moment, he received a message from his office manager.
A picture of Eun Jo and the ‘acquaintance’ in question, Cha Sang Yoon.
Even if they had been unrelated for the past 8 years, now, in the present!
Weren’t they together!
He thought it was clear that Yoon Eun Jo was born into this world to shake Kwon Jae Ha and make him dizzy.
“Just wait and see. I’ll sweep it all away at once.”
Looking at the large bouquet in her arms, Jae Ha gritted his teeth.
“Have a car ready at the main entrance. Now!”
Before sweeping it all away, it was urgent to do a preliminary cleanup.
How did all this happen?

Standing in front of Jae Ha’s empty house, his dressing room, Madam Lee Yeon Sil was dumbfounded, but she didn’t show her inner thoughts.
Seeing the situation, she understood why they had brought someone to help.
The dressing room, which should be neat and tidy for Kwon Jae Ha, looked as if a typhoon had swept through it.
Suits, shirts, and ties that had fallen off the hangers were rolling on the floor.
And even the shoes scattered on top.
“First, let’s arrange everything from that inner side in its place. Hyun Joo, please put the shoes on the shelf first.”
The young woman’s hands moved diligently and swiftly.
There was no conversation except what was absolutely necessary for the progress of the work.
In no time at all, the dressing room returned to its original state, as if nothing had happened.
Before leaving the house, Madam Lee Yeon Sil sent a brief message to the homeowner.
“I’ve finished the work. Please order food next time.”

I told you not to touch anything, including the dressing room, because they’re my belongings.
You’re saying I shouldn’t be at home. Good, that’s fine.
“Tsk.”
He didn’t reply to Eun Jo’s message about going to work.
So, she was on her way to the office in the manager’s car.
“Manager, please, take me home.”
She impulsively asked him to turn the car around.
It was bothersome to explain this and that after going to work when she was already on sick leave.
Just… she felt a strong desire to go home.
While the car was making a Uturn, Eun Jo felt a little embarrassed about her impulsive behavior.
Just a while ago, she was late and now, she’s absent.
It was like meeting a new path, not the safe and familiar path she walked every day.

It was strange and a little scary, but for some reason, she didn’t dislike it.
She even felt a subtle joy in the crooked deeds that weren’t like Yoon Eun Jo, and she didn’t even do in her teens.
When male lead is the homewrecker
“I know she doesn’t love him.”
I’ve read the novel below twice already. Girls, I’m highly recommending it to you!
The female lead? Not a good person.
The second male lead? Not a good person.
The male lead? Willingly plays the third party, breaking up the female and second male lead’s relationship despite all the warnings from his friends—so yeah, he’s definitely not a good person either.
Basically, nobody in this novel is simple-minded or without scheming.
The female lead starts off as the male lead’s secretary, but don’t worry—later on, she takes over the company while the male lead steps back to support her. He won’t steal her spotlight, overshadow her, or dull her shine.
I love novels where men are out here snatching wigs, tearing each other down, and going to war just to win the female lead’s affection. And this is exactly that kind of novel. Most of Hai Dai Ran’s works have this dynamic. You’ll see the male characters’ emotions being pushed to the absolute extreme.
There’s even a scene where the second male lead exposes the male lead online for being a homewrecker. The brotherhood immediately gangs up on him, dragging him through the mud. I find it compelling —it completely flips reality on its head, where usually, women are the ones fighting over a man and getting torn apart by the sisterhood.
For me, female leads in the novels I read should only struggle in their careers, not in love. But if the brainless romantics in the story are all men? I have zero complaints.
I’ve pretty much read all of Hai Dai Ran’s novels and even translated all of them—her works are just my thing. I’ll slowly upload everything here. One day, when my website is official, I hope I can invite her to join as one of the star authors.
Here’s the story synopsis:
One-line summary: She is his lifelong obsession, to the point where he was willing to be a third wheel, scorned by society, just to wedge his way into her relationship with her fiancé.
Cold-hearted and indifferent female lead + Scheming and subservient CEO male lead
Intro 1:
“I know she doesn’t love him.”
With blood trickling from his clenched fist, Rong Xiu gazed at the woman before him, his eyes clouded with anguish. Hidden in the wardrobe, he had witnessed Fan Xia – the woman he desperately loved – in an intimate embrace with her fiancé. Yet his heart still yearned for her, defying all reason.
Fan Xia, the elegant and composed assistant, carried something mysterious in her eyes whenever she looked at her fiancé, Wen Lan Sheng. Strange occurrences began to surface – secret meetings with the young Gu Jin Yi, an unexplained withdrawal of 5,000 yuan… Then suddenly, her fiancé’s sister, Wen Jing, violently attacked her.
In this matriarchal society, Rong Xiu had risen to become the chairman of a powerful healthcare conglomerate, breaking through gender prejudices. But for the first time, he willingly stepped into the shadows as the other man, disregarding his friends’ warnings to become her secret lover.
Because he had discovered the truth – Fan Xia wasn’t the pure angel everyone believed her to be. And perhaps, he was the only one capable of helping her execute her mysterious plan…
Intro 2:
Rong Xiu’s biggest regret in life was missing out on Fan Xia.
He secretly loved Fan Xia for 7 years.
Watched her go public with her boyfriend.
Watched her kiss her boyfriend at their wedding.
Until that man blissfully nestled in Fan Xia’s arms, obtaining everything he could only dream of.
The crazy jealousy stripped away his hidden secret love, layer by layer, burning like wildfire.
Fan Xia, how can I have you!
