Thrilled by Madness (Completed Main Story) - Side Story 6
The prosecution summoned Tae Seo Jun and Eom So Yeon to the prosecutor’s office.
Yesterday, Professor Eom had responded to a summons regarding the case involving Chairman Han; today’s session was meant to question Seo Jun and So Yeon about the truth of Han Seung Jae’s claim—that he had no intent in attempting to kill three people.
However, this was by no means an interrogation designed to leave loopholes for the defendant to escape.
After all, the prosecution had already secured ample physical evidence proving the crimes committed by the Han father and son, having conducted sweeping raids on residences linked to Lian Group, the university hospital, and even those involved in the staged suicide case from ten years ago and the Jeju Island shooting incident.
Thus, this face-to-face interrogation was merely a procedural formality.
The door to the interrogation room opened, and the prosecutor and investigator took their seats at the square table. Han Seung Jae and his attorney, who had already coordinated their strategy, were seated in their designated spots. Then, Tae Seo Jun, who had just arrived at the prosecutor’s office, entered the room.
“Huh, why’d she come alone?”
Han Seung Jae shot Seo Jun, seated directly across from him, a resentful glare—yet he couldn’t quite meet Seo Jun’s eyes head-on, perhaps out of lingering guilt.
“…….”
Seo Jun elegantly crossed his long legs and slightly turned his head toward the prosecutor and investigator. It wasn’t worth responding to—but if needed, that man would handle it.
“Ms. Eom So Yeon has delegated all questioning to Mr. Tae Seo Jun due to a headache.”
Indeed, So Yeon had come to the prosecutor’s office but was waiting outside the interrogation room. She couldn’t possibly forgive Han Seung Jae for deliberately plotting against her father, nor could she bear being in the same building as him without feeling nauseous.
“Heh… of course you would…”
Han Seung Jae muttered under his breath with a derisive snort, shooting Seo Jun a disdainful glance. Beyond the investigator’s explanation, he resented how Tae Seo Jun—simply seated there in a perfectly tailored suit, doing nothing—radiated such commanding charisma.
In contrast, Han Seung Jae looked utterly pitiful in his prison uniform, handcuffs clamped around both wrists—though his eyes still held their usual venomous, defiant slant.

When male lead is the homewrecker
“I know she doesn’t love him.”
I’ve read the novel below twice already. Girls, I’m highly recommending it to you!

The female lead? Not a good person.
The second male lead? Not a good person.
The male lead? Willingly plays the third party, breaking up the female and second male lead’s relationship despite all the warnings from his friends—so yeah, he’s definitely not a good person either.
Basically, nobody in this novel is simple-minded or without scheming.
The female lead starts off as the male lead’s secretary, but don’t worry—later on, she takes over the company while the male lead steps back to support her. He won’t steal her spotlight, overshadow her, or dull her shine.
I love novels where men are out here snatching wigs, tearing each other down, and going to war just to win the female lead’s affection. And this is exactly that kind of novel. Most of Hai Dai Ran’s works have this dynamic. You’ll see the male characters’ emotions being pushed to the absolute extreme.
There’s even a scene where the second male lead exposes the male lead online for being a homewrecker. The brotherhood immediately gangs up on him, dragging him through the mud. I find it compelling —it completely flips reality on its head, where usually, women are the ones fighting over a man and getting torn apart by the sisterhood.
For me, female leads in the novels I read should only struggle in their careers, not in love. But if the brainless romantics in the story are all men? I have zero complaints.
I’ve pretty much read all of Hai Dai Ran’s novels and even translated all of them—her works are just my thing. I’ll slowly upload everything here. One day, when my website is official, I hope I can invite her to join as one of the star authors.
Here’s the story synopsis:
One-line summary: She is his lifelong obsession, to the point where he was willing to be a third wheel, scorned by society, just to wedge his way into her relationship with her fiancé.
Cold-hearted and indifferent female lead + Scheming and subservient CEO male lead
Intro 1:
“I know she doesn’t love him.”
With blood trickling from his clenched fist, Rong Xiu gazed at the woman before him, his eyes clouded with anguish. Hidden in the wardrobe, he had witnessed Fan Xia – the woman he desperately loved – in an intimate embrace with her fiancé. Yet his heart still yearned for her, defying all reason.
Fan Xia, the elegant and composed assistant, carried something mysterious in her eyes whenever she looked at her fiancé, Wen Lan Sheng. Strange occurrences began to surface – secret meetings with the young Gu Jin Yi, an unexplained withdrawal of 5,000 yuan… Then suddenly, her fiancé’s sister, Wen Jing, violently attacked her.
In this matriarchal society, Rong Xiu had risen to become the chairman of a powerful healthcare conglomerate, breaking through gender prejudices. But for the first time, he willingly stepped into the shadows as the other man, disregarding his friends’ warnings to become her secret lover.
Because he had discovered the truth – Fan Xia wasn’t the pure angel everyone believed her to be. And perhaps, he was the only one capable of helping her execute her mysterious plan…
Intro 2:
Rong Xiu’s biggest regret in life was missing out on Fan Xia.
He secretly loved Fan Xia for 7 years.
Watched her go public with her boyfriend.
Watched her kiss her boyfriend at their wedding.
Until that man blissfully nestled in Fan Xia’s arms, obtaining everything he could only dream of.
The crazy jealousy stripped away his hidden secret love, layer by layer, burning like wildfire.
Fan Xia, how can I have you!
