“I ended up ruining those times that were so happy. I should have been honest from the beginning…. Of course, if I had, I might not have married you, but I should have been honest anyway.”
“Su Yeon, that’s…”
“I think I know what you’re trying to say, In Ho. But In Ho, this is my fault. No matter how much you say it’s okay, the fact that I deceived you and your family doesn’t change. It’s understandable that your mother feels so betrayed.”
“…….”
“That they loved me so much, and then to find out two years into the marriage that I was adopted, the betrayal they must have felt. I should have been the one to speak up first, but I didn’t.”
Tears fell from Su Yeon’s eyes as she smiled while speaking.
It wasn’t that she hadn’t resented her mother-in-law, who had suddenly become a different person one day.
To be honest, it was a bit shocking.
Her mother-in-law, who had been so warm to her, how could she change so drastically in an instant?
On days when her mother-in-law’s coldness was unbearable, Su Yeon even lamented her life.
Wondering what great sin she had committed in a past life to deserve such misfortune in this one.
She hadn’t given her heart to many people in her life, but every time she did, they grew cold towards her, making her wonder if she was born under an unlucky star.
Yet, she couldn’t let go of Yeong Seon because she didn’t want to give up this time.
She wanted to try everything possible to protect her happiness.
Even if it meant enduring unfair treatment and scolding, she wanted to see it through to the end.
“I wanted to fix it. Since I ruined our happiness, I thought it was up to me to restore it.”
“…….”
“I thought if I tried hard enough to be loved by your mother again, everything could go back to how it was. Looking back, I didn’t realize that in the process, I could make the wrong choices and even bring us to the worst situation.”
She thought just working hard would suffice.
Just like her adoptive parents wanted her to be the perfect woman to sell off, she thought getting pregnant would solve everything, as Yeong Seon wanted.
Such a foolish thought.
She realized it too late.
After everything had already become a mess, when it was too late to fix anything.
She thought she could never restore her relationship with In Ho, nor with Yeong Seon.
That’s why she didn’t want to live anymore.
Living on only seemed to mean wandering alone in bitter loneliness.
She really had been ready to give up everything…
“In Ho. The problems between us are not just your fault. This marriage was a decision made by both of us, and our married life has come to this point by our choices. It was just a matter of us not matching up in certain aspects.”
Su Yeon, with a face drenched in tears, looked earnestly into In Ho’s eyes, confirming his gaze towards her.
She felt his trembling hand holding her shoulder, and it instilled courage in her.
“I’m sorry. I was so focused on improving things with your mother that I didn’t realize I was making it hard for you.”
“No, Su Yeon. Compared to what you went through, I am, I am…….”
In Ho struggled to continue speaking.
His voice trembled as if it could break down at any moment.
That alone made Su Yeon feel as if her heart, scarred and wounded for so long, had been completely healed.
“In Ho, actually, you know, I really like you a lot. I never dared to say it out loud, afraid it might be a burden to you…….”
“…….”
“I like you. I have, all along.”
Su Yeon, unable to stop her tears, did not hesitate to convey her feelings to In Ho.
She had thought she would never tell In Ho until the day she died….
But now that she had opened up, she felt a refreshing sense of relief.
Su Yeon pulled up the corners of her mouth, trying to smile.
Crying and laughing at the same time, she quickly wiped away her tears and smiled even brighter.
She wanted to look as beautiful as possible in this first moment of confession.
“Ha, Choi Su Yeon, you, you really…….”
In Ho looked at Su Yeon with reddened eyes.
Despite trying to hold back, his eyes kept stinging.
He wanted to respond to her confession, but his throat was choked with overwhelming emotions.
That’s why.
In Ho gently held Su Yeon’s face and kissed her.
With each touch of their lips, he could taste her tears, but even that felt sweet.
When he felt Su Yeon’s hands wrapping eagerly around his neck, an indescribable sense of emotion filled his heart.
It cleared away the complex thoughts that had filled his mind.
In Ho focused entirely on Su Yeon.
The passionate kiss awakened a dormant longing, and In Ho responded earnestly to this sudden awakening of instinct.
Su Yeon tilted her head slightly as her breath reached the tip of her throat.
In Ho did not miss this opportunity and swiftly lifted Su Yeon in his arms.
Startled, Su Yeon grabbed In Ho’s shoulders and let out a scream, but that was as far as she could go.
She helplessly surrendered her lips to him, who had closed the distance so quickly.
When yandere male lead believes she loves him — but she never did
“How dare you!”
“How dare you make me love you, only to cast me aside as nothing more than a friend?!?
“I will never accept that.”
“I will never let you return to him.”
“Even if I have to burn myself to ashes.”
“Even if I must shatter my purity, my dignity, my very soul.”
“I will never let you escape me!”
This was the first novel that introduced me to the matriarchal genre. I’ve read it three times already!
At first, the male lead despised the female lead. Later, he misunderstood that she liked him, so he condescendingly and reluctantly reciprocated her feelings.
Then, he suddenly discovered that she was kind to everyone in the same way, and there was already someone she cherished in her heart, and that person was not him.
The male lead couldn’t believe it, he became angry and crazy. He was determined to capture her body and heart by any means necessary.
Synopsis:
