With a frosty expression, Dajeong widened her eyes. The negotiation seemed to proceed smoothly, as Chairman Park wore a pleased smile.
“Sure. Try saying anything. How much more should I add?”
Feeling that the bargaining would go smoothly, Dajeong, after a moment of contemplation, spoke.
“Then, give me everything in this world.”
“…”
Chairman Park’s eyes blinked, and between those blinks, Dajeong’s confident voice continued.
“Siwoo is my everything. Exchanging my everything for your entire world, giving away everything to you, is not enough. But even if you, Chairman, are rich, isn’t that a bit too much?”
“What did you say?”
Chairman Park’s wrinkled lips opened slightly and then slowly closed.
For a moment, his words were stuck, and then, gazing at Dajeong with his small, squinting eyes, Chairman Park scrutinized her thoroughly.
Contrary to the calm and innocent appearance, there was a bold and cheeky side. I didn’t expect my grandson’s taste to lean this way, but it was surprising.
Regardless, when I cautiously observed someone like my birth mother, I was worried about what might happen, but fortunately, the child’s learning and manners didn’t need to be compared to that stuff.
Fine. I can’t say he’s completely polished, but it was clear he was naturally upright.
It’s also something to be thankful for that I gave birth to a child who stands out in the Cha family. But that’s about it.
What can this kid do for my grandson? Apart from being the daughter-in-law to an excellent background with unmatched charm, there was nothing else, except for my university diploma.
A grandson more reliable than anyone else, but anyway, isn’t he just an item for Chairman Park, put up for sale in the market?
Enemies surrounded him. Chairman Park, concealing his dangerous fangs, was waiting to tear my grandson apart.
With no shield to resist the storm and no parents or siblings, what can you do? In times of trouble, you should be able to rely on your in-laws.
At the age of soon turning eighty, Chairman Park didn’t have much time left. Before he left this world, he needed to thoroughly establish a defense to protect his grandson.
“It seems there’s a lingering corner despite appearances. People should seize opportunities when they come.”
“Yes. If I have to sell my child for personal gain, I will continue to live with this reluctance.”
Chairman Park chuckled weakly at the boldness of the response, which indicated a lack of interest.
If he sarcastically rejects the proposal made with discretion, the atmosphere might become hostile.
“It seems quite twitchy.”
Chairman Park’s voice rang a bit sharply. Although treated like a worm, Dajeong politely lowered her gaze after looking at Chairman Park.
“Chairman. Siwoo is not an item. I have no intention of exchanging him for any amount. So, I understand that this rude proposal is the last one.”
“You insolent!!”
Tang! The old man’s slender hand struck the armrest of the sofa forcefully, but Dajeong didn’t even bat an eyelash.
She had seen a lot of this on construction sites. It wasn’t advisable to underestimate the accumulated experience of a middle-aged man who had beaten fathers and uncles so far.
“How dare you come out so shamelessly after taking my son from my house? You should have been humble when given a chance! Let’s see how much you can squirm against me!”
Chairman Park, who sharply glared, shouted in a rage.
“Secretary Yoon! Tell Lawyer Choi to prepare for custody litigation immediately!”
“Yes, Chairman.”
The middle-aged woman who had brought Dajeong here politely bowed her waist.
Suppressing an absurd laugh in such a ridiculous situation, Dajeong closed her eyes tightly.
Knowing that it was probably for that grandmother and not for her grandson, Joonhyuk understood why he always heard “lawsuit, lawsuit” every time he opened his mouth.
A massive force that can only be complied with, like facing a natural disaster or something. But it’s strange. Unidentifiable resistance surged from within, like flames.
Facing a situation where someone unilaterally negotiates for my son, be it a natural disaster or whatever, was incredibly difficult to endure. Or maybe I don’t know if it’s fear.
Perhaps I’ve already been caught being scared. Usually, small and timid puppies bark louder, after all.
Taking deep breaths to calm the boiling emotions, Dajeong now contemplated what to do.
Politely getting up and saying goodbye, turning around. That should be enough.
Having decided, as she tried to get up, a banging sound came from somewhere. It was from the front door. Something was rushing in.
The heavy sound of the entrance door slamming shut. Subsequently, the harsh sound of pushing the middle door. And the urgent sound of slippers being dragged.
The man who appeared at the end had a somewhat disheveled face. He looked like he had rushed here.
Joonhyuk tried to comfort Dajeong’s face, who was making an effort to seem unbothered. Whether it was because I appeared or not, an awkward atmosphere flowed, as if the air had suddenly changed.
Joonhyuk’s gaze now turned to Chairman Park. The old man was avoiding his grandson’s gaze, coughing lightly.
Although the situation could be somewhat anticipated, Joonhyuk asked casually.
“Grandmother, what are we doing now?”
Asking Chairman Park, the gaze was firmly attached to Dajeong’s face.
“I’m asking. Why is this woman here?”
Asking again, silence hung in the air. With still no answer, Joonhyuk changed the subject of the question.
“Yuda-jeong, why are you here?”
“Mr. Chae Joonhyuk, I… ”
“Weren’t you taught not to follow strangers when you were young?”
He threw a jab, frowning.
It was during a heated meeting. Director Min, who hurriedly rushed in, whispered a confidential report to his ear.
“Chairman, it seems you’re on the move.”
Already having exchanged declarations of war between the two families, people had been attached to Chairman Park and Dajeong for a long time. Chairman Park was probably trying to quickly handle things before his grandson noticed. Unfortunately, it failed.
Shoosh. Suddenly, raindrops, which had become thicker, began to beat violently against the terrace window.
“Stop now.”
Chairman Park, seeming to have decided to put an end to the situation, spoke directly to Dajeong. Getting up from her seat, Dajeong bowed to Chairman Park and turned away.
Without saying a word, Joonhyuk’s gaze, following Dajeong’s retreating figure, turned to Chairman Park. Disappointment filled his indifferent eyes.
“Grandmother. What did you say?”
His voice came out fairly calmly.
“I told her to hand over the child.”
Joonhyuk’s eyebrows slightly lifted.
“I’m just standing here. Why, grandmother?”
Chairman Park’s gaze twisted and flew.
“Didn’t your brat want her?”
Ha, exhaling a frustrated sigh, Joonhyuk loosened the tight tie a bit.
“Grandmother, do you still see me as a four-year-old? My son is already five, and you treat me like a little kid. That really hurts.”
Chairman Park’s voice softened a bit with the affectionate tone.
“Joonhyuk, is your grandmother trying to take your child?”
“Yeah, she’s not your child; she’s mine. I’ll handle it myself.”
“Joonhyuk.”
“Call that woman again. If Grandma wants to see her grandson’s eyes rolling, that is.”
The threatening tone was oddly creepy due to its excessive monotony.
“This kid!”
“Grandmother, I can resent you. Really.”
Facing his grandson’s threat, Chairman Park swallowed a groan instead of opening his mouth.
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:
