The Price of Impulse (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 48
While Tae Jo was on the phone, Se Kyung sat on the sofa, scrolling through her phone.
In just a few hours, articles filled with initials had multiplied like rapidly dividing cells.
Some of the pieces, cleverly placed not in the entertainment section but the general news section, already had Se Kyung and Joo Hee’s names mentioned in the comments.
Most readers who saw the articles felt sorry for Joo Hee and labeled Se Kyung as selfish.
A post from someone claiming to be a staff member had also contributed significantly to this sentiment.
Although Se Kyung’s agency released an official statement, no one paid it any attention, and though people complained to Joo Hee’s agency, they received no response.
‘Ah….’
Se Kyung bit her lip, swallowing a groan. Perhaps it was stress—she felt a sharp, needle-like pain deep inside her stomach.
She curled her body slightly and gently stroked her lower abdomen, as if soothing the baby inside.
‘Hoo, it’s okay. Angko, Mommy’s fine….’
Could her unpleasant emotions be affecting her baby too?
Se Kyung closed her eyes, trying hard to calm her mind.
Just as the pain began to subside, a large hand covered her eyes, and her phone was gently taken from her hand.
“Stop looking at it.”
Tae Jo closed the portal app and sat down beside Se Kyung. When he removed his hand from her eyes, she looked up at him with a deeply dejected expression.

The Male lead Always Seduces Her with His Beauty (Matriarchy)
Xin Jiao Zhou is the leader of the world’s premier sect. She has just experienced betrayal from all sides, was poisoned in an assassination attempt, and faced death squad attacks while the poison was taking effect. After finally clearing out the scum from her sect, she was drugged again while trying to detoxify.
After waking up from a night of unconsciousness, she gained a “beautiful and kind-hearted” husband.
Xin Jiao Zhou: “???”
He fell ill.
She came to see him, bringing breakfast.
As she put down the breakfast and was about to leave, his hand slipped while holding the spoon. “Clank!”
She turned around upon hearing the noise.
He looked up at her, his eyebrows drooping: “My hand… has no strength.”
“Shall I… feed you?” she asked tentatively.
He opened his mouth cheerfully: “Ah—”
Thinking she was drowning, he jumped in without hesitation to save her, but nearly drowned himself. In the end, it was she who swam over to rescue him, giving him air underwater.
After emerging from the water, his ear tips turned red. He lightly brushed his cheek, tucking his sideburns behind his ear, revealing delicate, pink-tinged ear tips. He lowered his gaze, too embarrassed to look at her.
Xin Jiao Zhou: He’s truly beautiful, kind-hearted, and adorable.
A certain someone when disciplining subordinates behind the scenes: “If they don’t obey, just kill them.”
What’s that? She might already have someone she cares about in her heart? A certain someone: Find out who it is, kill them, and then there won’t be anyone.
What? She met a man by the riverside? What? That man even hurt her? A certain someone: Whichever hand hurt her, chop off his entire arm.
Love at first sight without realizing it, gradually falling in love, slowly getting closer…
Family and national grudges, schemes and desires, good and evil, crime and punishment, she and he face the future together, seeking justice with passion!
