When I Reach You (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 48
The surgery ended early.
After finishing his schedule, Seon Woo returned to his office and pulled out a paper, but paused mid-action, lost in thought for a moment. Then he stood up, placing the opened paper back into his briefcase.
Only upon reaching the officetel in a daze did exhaustion wash over him. The woman was gone.
As he placed the cake box he’d been holding onto the dining table, he simply accepted the incredulous laughter that burst out.
So even someone like me—a guy like this—could do this for a woman he likes, he thought.
On the way here, his steps had suddenly halted in front of a bakery, recalling the image of Eun Jae happily eating cheesecake last time.
Small things—for instance, the way her eyebrows would subtly lift when tasting delicious food, or how her tiny lips moved as she chewed.
Today, he had wanted to sit across from her, just the two of them, and hear her talk about anything at all—how she spent her day, what she ate—even trivial details would have been fine.
Staring at his now-silent phone after ending the call with Eun Jae, he let out a deflated chuckle.
Guess I’ll have dinner at the hotel again tonight, too.
What should I eat? What does she like?
While entertaining thoughts he’d never once considered before, Seon Woo pulled out a dining chair and sat down.
Soon, his gaze landed on the neatly stacked wedding invitations atop the table—leftovers after distribution to acquaintances.
He must’ve looked through them dozens of times today alone.
The card, which had felt utterly indifferent when first received, now appeared entirely different. He’d opened it, closed it, reopened it again, gently tracing the name “Ji Eun Jae” engraved on its surface.

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.
