The Grand Temptation (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 112
As soon as the plane landed at San Francisco International Airport and the ban on using electronic devices was lifted, Yuli quickly turned on her phone. She had been worried that Jae Ho might have called, but fortunately, there were no missed messages or texts.
Following Hyun Kyung’s advice, she had decided not to tell Jae Ho she had come to the U.S.
After renting a car, Yuli immediately drove to the address Jae Ho had given her. It took less than an hour via the highway from the airport to her destination, Atherton, and she easily found it with the help of her navigation system.
Stepping out of the car, Yuli looked around in bewilderment. She had known that Atherton was one of the wealthiest neighborhoods in the U.S., but the mansion before her looked less like a private residence and more like a dazzling five-star hotel.
Is this really the right address?
She’d driven over confidently, hoping to surprise Jae Ho—but now that she stood right in front of it, fear suddenly gripped her.
What if this isn’t the house? Should I call him now?
Fiddling with her phone, Yuli simply stared at the enormous mansion. Just then, a man who appeared to be a gardener walked out from around the fence. Seeing Yuli, he tilted his head in confusion and approached her.
“Excuse me, may I ask what you’re doing here?”
“If I may ask, is Jay at home right now? I came looking for him.”
“Oh, Jay. Yes. He’s in the backyard right now.”
The man smiled broadly and pointed toward the back of the mansion.
“Thank you very much. I’ll go to the backyard to see him.”
At the woman’s words, the man nodded and gestured for her to go ahead.
The outdoor grounds easily exceeded one acre and featured amenities like a swimming pool and tennis court. Though called a “backyard,” it felt more like crossing a park—you had to walk quite a distance.
Male lead fell into her trap — and shattered when she walked away
This is also on my reread list!
This one is a slow burn, but when it burns, it burns hard.
Definitely worth a read, y’all!
The story follows a thousand-year-old seductive spirit who, on a bet, sets out to charm the male lead—a once-promising but unfortunate cultivator.
But just when she succeeds in making him fall for her, she heartlessly leaves, driving him to madness.
Determined to find her at all costs, he captures her, keeping her by his side no matter what, even if she hates him.
I love this kind of trope—I enjoy watching the male lead suffer in agony.
The ending drags a bit with unnecessary filler, but that’s fine.
As long as I enjoy the beginning, I’m good.
