The secretary approached Hoyeon, who arrived late for work.
“Team leader.”
Hoyeon’s eyes, sipping coffee brought by the secretary, looked at him.
“The chairman is looking for you.”
The neatly groomed eyebrows slightly furrowed.
Hoyeon exhaled a frustrated breath, setting down the coffee cup he was holding.
After that, as he stood up from his seat, the secretary asked, “Are you going now?”
Without responding to the secretary’s question, Hoyeon headed to the chairman’s office.
Upon arriving at the familiar place, he opened the entrance and entered. The secretaries who recognized her bowed and greeted Hoyeon, guiding her to Chairman Sangheon’s office.
After getting permission to enter, Hoyeon, who went inside, faced her father, who stood up from his seat.
Hoyeon sat on the sofa first and asked, “Why did you call me?”
Hearing the unusual tone, Sangheon, after glancing at Hoyeon for a moment, asked the question he had been curious about.
“What have you been up to lately?”
In the past few days, Hoyeon’s actions had been strange. The TK Tower project, which Hoyeon thought Jaeo, who she had an interest in, would handle, was being handled by the vice chairman’s son. Hoyeon, who had hoped to work with Jaeo somehow, had assigned another person to handle the work, making Sangheon frustrated.
“I laid out everything as you wanted, but it seems like Taeil isn’t doing his job properly, and you’re not handling your tasks separately either.”
It seemed like Hoyeon wasn’t properly entering the house either. After more than a week had passed, unable to watch anymore, Sangheon decided to confront Hoyeon.
“Speak up. What’s going on?”
“…”
“Hoyeon.”
Hearing Sangheon’s words while quietly listening, Hoyeon’s eyes turned to him.
“Weren’t you trying to get along well with that Assistant Manager?”
“I was trying to.”
“But why are you acting like this?”
“I have some thoughts to organize.”
As the atmosphere between them was gradually becoming tense, a sense of frustration surged when realizing that there was only one thing left to happen.
It was incomprehensible.
[Yes, it was hard to hear clearly, but it seemed like they were meeting. Song Chaeyoon even came out crying.]Even though Song Chaeyoon admitted that she liked someone else, why couldn’t Jaeo let go of Song Chaeyoon?
He hadn’t shown any interest for three years, so why act like this now?
It was incomprehensible, but he later realized.
The fact that Song Chaeyoon had someone else had served as a catalyst to awaken his feelings.
In other words.
The fact that Song Chaeyoon had someone else became the trigger that awakened his feelings.
In other words.
It meant that everything he had carefully planned to be by Jaeo’s side had only brought good things to Song Chaeyoon.
Indescribable irritation surged. He didn’t want to go near the Taeil Group, and he not only wanted to forget about Han Jaeo, the man filling his mind, but also wanted to destroy everything within reach.
So, he poured alcohol, and even tried hanging out with other men.
This way, maybe he wouldn’t remember. Perhaps he could forget. He thought he could give up on everything, but…
As expected, he couldn’t forget.
The man firmly embedded in his mind came to mind even when having a relationship with another man.
[Chaeyoon.]
That sweet voice.
[Let’s do it once and then leave.]The pleading tone asking for affection kept lingering in his mind, and Hoyeon wasn’t satisfied with anything she currently possessed or felt.
How good would it be if this man were Han Jaeo?
If Han Jaeo called my name like that, it would be a wish come true. No, even if Jaeo just called my name, it would be nice.
Why don’t you look at me?
Desire simmered for something he hadn’t experienced, reigniting Hoyeon’s thirst.
Now, truly, if it’s not Han Jaeo, no other man seems capable of satisfying him.
If that’s the case, there was only one choice left for Hoyeon.
To try until he gave up.
Right now, he might be caught up with Song Chaeyoon, but the burning moment wouldn’t last long, and he just had to wait for that time.
‘I waited for three years, and I can’t wait any longer.’
As his thoughts changed, the once-melted heart, weak in disappointment, solidified once again.
Hoyeon decided not to hurry. However, not rushing didn’t mean doing nothing, so she planned to observe his actions and seize opportunities just like now.
Moreover, unlike before, she had a different intention in approaching him.
Until now, because of Yeseok’s words that there shouldn’t be any flaws in her marriage with Jaeo, she cautiously approached him. But now, willing to do whatever it takes, even if it meant rolling in the mud, she was determined to make Han Jaeo hers.
“So, is everything sorted out now?”
Hoyeon’s gaze became resolute.
“Yeah. It’s all sorted.”
After giving the answer, Hoyeon looked at Sangheon.
“Dad, I’m going to marry Jaeo.”
Having heard his daughter’s declaration, Sangheon sighed lightly and closed his eyes.
“So, is this what you mean by sorting things out?”
“Yeah.”
Sangheon opened his eyes and looked at Hoyeon.
“Hoyeon.”
“Dad, you know I’ve always had to get what I wanted since I was a kid, right?”
Interrupting his words, his daughter was like a princess born into a household full of men.
Just by her existence, she was a beautiful daughter, so Sangheon had granted everything Hoyeon asked for. If she wanted something, he would do whatever it took to get it.
Perhaps because of this, when Hoyeon set her mind on something, she would throw a tantrum and resort to all sorts of tactics until she got it.
“No one could stop that.”
“…….”
“So, Dad, just stay still and let me do as I please.”
Sangheon, who knew Hoyeon’s temperament better than anyone, became speechless as he had nothing more to say, letting out a sigh.
On the other hand, Hoyeon left the chairman’s office with a clearer mind than ever.
Back in her room, Hoyeon sent a message.
“If there are any schedule changes for Jaeo, let me know immediately.”
Not long after, a response came.
“Manager-nim, Mr. Han has plans to meet with friends tonight.”
Hoyeon’s eyes sparkled at the opportunity she had seized.
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.”
