“Why did you go through such trouble at this time…”
“Seeing you earlier, you didn’t even properly get a side dish. You were drunk at 7 o’clock, so you skipped dinner, didn’t you.”

Do Ha grinned, seeing Hyun Seo grumbling.

“It’s been a while since Hyun Seo cared about me.”
“Consider it a special occasion since it’s your birthday.”
“Why do I find it so touching when Hyun Seo worries about me? I wish it were my birthday every day.”
“This is the last time. There won’t be even soup on your birthday next year.”
Hyun Seo shot back at Do Ha who was talking like a childish boy.

Even though Do Ha knew that Hyun Seo would say something like that, he couldn’t shake off the lingering sentimentality.

This kind of sentimentality was something that he used to take for granted a long time ago. The big and small things that Hyun Seo took care of.

They were all such touching things.

But I was a fool who didn’t know how to appreciate such things.

What was I so obsessed with? Was I so absorbed in that damn work that I messed up something more important?

I never thought that work was more important than Hyun Seo. But perhaps I was mistaken in thinking that I could protect Hyun Seo, who was in my life, if I achieved that.

Hyun Seo never wanted such a thing.

Regret With All Your Might

Chapter 256 Chapter 255

To Chairman Chae, Chae Do Ha was a child as painful as a sore finger, but to others, he was just a lucky parachute trying to freeload off the reputation of somewhere he’d rolled in from.

He wanted to shatter that prejudice. So he wished for the day when everyone would naturally acknowledge him as the successor of Jinseong to come quickly.

Perhaps it was to save Chairman Chae’s face, or perhaps it was to protect his family and make them proud.

And maybe it was a little bit due to the wound to his selfesteem caused by his unusual birth.

He had been trying to prove himself by showing off the results to the gossiping people. That was the reason.

The more he produced results in his position, the more it was just his genes inherited from the chairman that were praised.

Of course, there was probably the extraordinary ability inherited from the Jinseong owner, but it wouldn’t have been possible without effort.

In a way, perhaps even the spirit of effort was inherited.

But, just like Chairman Chae Hyun Woo, Do Ha was even more obsessed with work, piling on even more effort.

Thinking about it now, it all seemed like excuses. Then and now, there was nothing more precious than Hyun Seo.

Why was he in such a hurry to achieve that goal? Hyun Seo did not wait until he achieved it.

“Why did we end up like this, Hyun Seo…”
Do Ha mumbled out of context. When he turned his eyes to look at Hyun Seo, her gaze was not as cold as it had been.

Is it because it’s my birthday?

“I’ll go now, it’s too late.”
Hyun Seo turned around without answering the question that made her heart flutter.

She had just received a message from the sitter that Do Hyun had fallen asleep.

Her life was now there. Do Ha and I could no longer be mixed.

That was as far as she could let herself go because it was his birthday. Any further was dangerous.

But Hyun Seo couldn’t even take a couple of steps. It was because of the hot warmth that wrapped around her hand.

“Don’t go…”
Do Ha’s chest touched Hyun Seo’s back, who stood still without turning around. Soon after, he hugged Hyun Seo with both arms.

In the moment she was hugged by him, Hyun Seo realized how long it had been since she was in his embrace. And how warm it had been.

The moment she tried to move her body to escape, Do Ha’s arms tightened even more.

“Don’t do this.”
Hyun Seo, held still in his arms, spoke. But Do Ha hugged her even tighter and bowed his head.

“Hyun Seo….”

His breath softly touched her neck. Hyun Seo hesitated in surprise.

“I realized that I love you a lot…”
At the sound of the voice ringing in her ears, Hyun Seo’s heart sank. She felt as if her entire body was freezing.

“I think I’ve felt this way for a long time…”
Despite not wanting to, her eyes became moist at his confession.

“I don’t think there was ever a time when it wasn’t love.”
Hyun Seo couldn’t control her trembling feeling. The confession was so startling that she was afraid to hear more.

Once, more than anything in the world, she had wanted this man’s heart. How long had she waited for a moment like this?

But why now?

Despite her efforts to hold back, tears flowed relentlessly.

“I’m going to love you like this for the rest of my life.”
There was pain in Do Ha’s voice. Could there be another confession as desperate as this?

“This kind of drunken confession… You’ll regret it tomorrow.”
“I’m not speaking because I’m drunk.”
“We… have already come too far.”
“I’ll close the distance, so it’s okay.”
Hyun Seo could no longer say anything.

“This time, I’ll be the one to approach, I’ll be the one to make the effort.”
Hyun Seo, with only tears in her eyes, quietly lowered her head.

He doesn’t know why she can’t, why she must reject him. He doesn’t know how many things she can’t tell him.

Will there ever come a day when she can tell him that they have a child, and in order to protect that child, they can’t be together?

Do Ha turned her body toward him to look at Hyun Seo’s quiet face.

Instead of a cold expression, her face was full of tears. She also seemed to be in pain.

Looking at her, avoiding eye contact with him, his heart felt as if it was being infinitely constricted. It was pitiful and he felt sorry.

Seeing Hyun Seo’s face, Do Ha, overwhelmed by a surge of emotions, impulsively lowered his lips to hers.

Hyun Seo’s downcast eyes widened in surprise at the sudden kiss.

An Indifferent Woman is the One Men Desire the Most

One-line summary: The female lead is actually cold-hearted and extremely rational. She has stage-by-stage relationships and won’t two-time, but there will always be someone who secretly likes her.

This novel has the following triggers, so if you’re sensitive to these, please don’t read:

1. The female lead has had many relationships, but she treated each one seriously and broke up properly.

It’s just that the men unilaterally pestered her incessantly. For the female lead, when she doesn’t like someone anymore, she simply doesn’t like them.

(This applies to her relationships with Male Lead 1, 2, 3, and 4 as well, but she’s loyal in each 1-on-1 relationship!)

2. In this novel, Male Lead 2 and the female lead kiss in a car, and Male Lead 1 sees it and beats up Male Lead 2.

The female lead calls the police and sends both Male Lead 1 and 2 to the police station! Male Lead 1 begs the female lead not to break up with him.

3. Male Lead 1 has a gentle appearance but an obsessive personality.

Male Lead 2 has a delicate and soft appearance, slightly green tea-like (two-faced).

Male Lead 3 is a youthful college student and a smart person who has secretly liked the female lead for a long time.

Male Lead 4 is the female lead’s father’s special assistant, a business elite with deep, hidden thoughts.

4. At the beginning of this novel, the female lead has already broken up with Male Lead 1 (Chapter 4) and gotten back together with Male Lead 2 (ex-boyfriend).

5. Enter with caution if you have triggers!!!

You’re bound to regret it if you skip this novel. Read the review & spoiler to find out what you might be missing!
