To the Missing Secretary (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 62
The tea that Ji Won had brought remained untouched on the table, not a single sip taken.
Jun Gyu’s expression grew unbearably heavy after hearing the situation from Suk Young and Young Ho.
This truly was a serious crisis.
If investment funds didn’t come in immediately, not only would the factory have to halt operations, but all its equipment might be seized as well.
“From what I can tell, things were managed well until recently, but your circumstances took a sharp downturn over the past year.”
“Yes, you’re absolutely right, Father-in-law.”
Young Ho lowered his head deeply, clearly ashamed.
“He’s always been too trusting of people, so he’s been taken advantage of many times. I thought, ‘Surely not this time,’ but again, I got stabbed in the back.”
“He’s just too kind-hearted. He doesn’t even know how to be suspicious. I should’ve stayed alert myself, but he kept saying it was fine… Oh dear, if only I’d kept my wits about me, our Ra Jin would’ve been married by now…”
As Suk Young began to wail again, Young Ho patted her shoulder soothingly.
“Yes, I understand. Excuse me for a moment—may I step out briefly?”
“Of course, Father-in-law. Please go ahead.”
Wanting to give Suk Young time to calm down and also intending to call Seon Woo, Jun Gyu stepped out of the chairman’s office.
Even upon seeing him, Ji Won didn’t rise from her seat—following the chairman’s instruction that she needn’t stand up unless it concerned something urgent.
“Could you please reheat the tea? I haven’t even touched it, yet it’s gone completely cold.”
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.
