Startled, Su-yeon quickly looked forward.
The moment she locked eyes with the person inside, she couldn’t help but sigh.
“Su-yeon.”
It was Dong-hoon, the very person she had hoped not to encounter.
[Time Divider]The three people, standing awkwardly in the corridor connected to the parking lot, looked uncomfortable, especially Su-yeon.
She felt very uneasy about running into Dong-hoon with In-ho.
“……This is the brother I mentioned last time, Nam Dong-hoon. And this is, my husband.”
Su-yeon introduced the two men to each other reluctantly.
There was a brief silence.
Amidst the discomfort that suited none of them, Dong-hoon was the first to extend his hand.
“Nice to meet you. I’m Nam Dong-hoon.”
In-ho stared at the hand offered to him before finally shaking it.
“Seo In-ho.”
The two hands, firmly gripped, shook in the air.
Maintaining the bare minimum of courtesy, In-ho quickly let go of Dong-hoon’s hand as if he had been waiting to do so.
In-ho had not expected to encounter the man he had only heard about, a man from his wife’s past who turned out to be much more well-groomed than anticipated.
A feeling of discomfort burned within him for no apparent reason.
“You look much more handsome in person.”
Dong-hoon wore a polite, business-like smile on his face.
Even that irked him.
Despite the obvious salesmanship in his smile, it still managed to captivate people’s attention.
Had he pursued a career in entertainment, he might have gained considerable popularity with his likable appearance.
In-ho wanted to leave with Su-yeon as soon as possible.
He sensed a warning sign.
“Thank you for the compliment. It seems like you were on your way somewhere, we should be going too. Goodbye.”
In-ho’s bow was crisp and coldly formal.
Then, picking up their belongings, he conspicuously wrapped his arm around Su-yeon’s shoulder.
“Let’s go.”
“Huh? Ah, yes.”
As In-ho urged her on, Su-yeon’s gaze briefly met Dong-hoon’s.
In that moment, In-ho hurried away as if his feet had engines.
He didn’t give the two, who shared a past, a chance to say goodbye.
Su-yeon was almost dragged along by In-ho.
The pace was so fast it was hard to keep up, but she tried her best to match his stride.
Even when they reached their parked car, In-ho did not let go of Su-yeon.
Instead of letting go, he opened the passenger door for her and helped her get in.
After that, everything happened in quick succession.
Without a chance for conversation, the luggage was loaded in the back seat, and the car started.
In-ho’s driving, usually felt safe, was somewhat rough, leaving Su-yeon speechless until they arrived home.
They reached their newlywed home in no time.
In-ho placed the heavy bags on the dining table and quickly gulped down cold water.
Su-yeon stood a few steps away, constantly gauging In-ho’s mood.
The atmosphere was as tense as thin ice.
Until they encountered Dong-hoon, he had been playfully teasing her.
But now, In-ho seemed somehow ill at ease.
This made Su-yeon feel uncomfortable too.
“Um, In-ho…”
She finally managed to speak to In-ho, then hesitated again.
‘Should I ask if he’s upset? Or am I overthinking it…?’
She couldn’t decide.
But then, the sound of marble and glass clashing harshly hit Su-yeon’s ears.
Startled, she regained her composure and faced forward.
Instead of In-ho’s back, his face filled her eyes.
His expression was not good.
Enough to confirm that her connection with Dong-hoon was not an overreaction.
After a moment of hesitation, Su-yeon, still gauging In-ho’s mood, faltered with her words.
“In-ho, don’t tell me you’re… misunderstanding my relationship with Dong-hoon?”
Before she could finish, In-ho’s voice cut in.
“Yeah. I am jealous.”
His reply came without a moment’s hesitation, leaving Su-yeon wide-eyed.
“Huh? No, I meant to ask if you’re misunderstanding… not that…”
Su-yeon stumbled over her words, completely taken aback by the unfamiliar term and expression.
It was too surprising.
Jealousy had never been a part of her life, neither fleeting nor substantial.
She had never had anyone to feel jealous over before, so how could she have experienced such an emotion?
She hadn’t even considered that her words might embarrass In-ho.
In-ho’s face uncharacteristically flushed red.
But it was only for a moment.
Soon, he approached Su-yeon with a hardened expression, striding toward her.
“I’m jealous. Right now, I’m incredibly jealous. To the point where I can’t see anything else.”
“In-ho, as I said before, Dong-hoon is just…”
“No. I don’t want to hear it. I think I know what you’re going to say, so don’t.”
In-ho, gripping Su-yeon’s shoulder, cut her off firmly.
The intensity of his gaze was too strong, forcing her to close her mouth tightly.
“Not just now, but in the future too. Don’t ever mention that guy’s name again.”
Raw emotion, unusual for him, continuously spilled out.
Su-yeon, facing him closely, questioned if this was really happening.
In-ho’s words didn’t stop there, adding to her confusion.
“I felt like my blood was boiling just watching you look at that guy.”
“It’s really nothing…”
“I know. I know you have no feelings for him, but I still hate it.”
In the face of In-ho’s excessively firm words, Su-yeon blinked in response.
She mulled over his words internally.
The harsh words from In-ho’s mouth, which she had never heard before, were somehow not unpleasant.
So this is what it feels like to have someone be jealous for you.
Understanding this emotion, Su-yeon found the man in front of her incredibly endearing.
In-ho hesitated.
Su-yeon waited.
She felt she already knew what he was going to say next.
“That’s why, from now on, I want you to just let me do whatever I need to.”
The awaited words pierced Su-yeon’s ears without hesitation.
Her face heated up, even though she had expected this.
Her response was decided, but she asked anyway, just in case.
“Are you not hungry?”
“I am. But something else is more urgent. It’s been urgent, but it’s worse now because of him.”
In-ho’s arms, wrapped around her waist, tightened.
He closed any remaining space between them, pressing their bodies together.
His voice was hoarse and growling.
“I feel like I’m going to die.”
“…”
“Should I keep holding back?”
His eyes were more longing than ever before.
He wanted her.
Seo In-ho, the man she loved dearly, wanted her.
“No. Don’t hold back.”
Su-yeon shyly delivered the words she had been holding back.
Their lips met in a heated embrace.
The warmth of his fervent kiss was fully felt.
She sensed that a challenging time lay ahead.
She might end up spending the entire day in bed, as she had anticipated.
But Su-yeon didn’t mind.
Because the one desiring her so fervently was Seo In-ho.
She willingly embraced his neck with all her might.
Male lead first thought she played hard to get, only to realize she
really disliked him
