“If you don’t understand, just miss it as you don’t understand.”
“……. ”
“Don’t hate it.”
Feeling the hand wrapping around the back of her head, Eunchae buried her face in his chest. Like ripples forming on a calm lake, waves surged in her heart.
Do I know what Mom means to me? She was too warm, and tears welled up. It felt like she was saying it was okay.
“Oddly enough, it seems like we should treat marriage as if it never happened.”
Chairman Song Myunghwan, facing Representative Han Jichang, broke the long silence. When Representative Han, who had taken a sip of tea from the wooden cup, raised his eyebrows and looked at him, Chairman Song politely explained.
“It seems that Eunchae’s shock is quite substantial. It’s not just a scandal that broke out this time.”
It was a forced marriage, even bending their will to make it happen. Although it wasn’t regrettable to be Chairman Song, considering the circumstances, he had to take a step back.
Unaware of Chairman Song’s feelings, Representative Han showed a displeased expression.
“He might be my son who didn’t mature well, but he’s not someone who would mistreat a woman.”
“I know that Han Sangmu is not that kind of person. But since Eunchae has a strong will…”
“It’s awkward to say this. Last night, I mediated Kim Representative’s case.”
“What do you mean?”
“Did you pretend not to know that the money given to Representative Kim was counterfeit?”
As Chairman Song Myunghwan’s face darkened, Representative Han emphasized, clenching the armrest of the chair.
“I don’t suspect it. Maybe you made a mistake while doing something else. I don’t think you genuinely let it go like that. However, why the recent mistakes that you haven’t made before?”
“Such…”
“Marriage is regrettable. It seems like Eunchae’s will is too strong. Well, I can’t help it. Then let me get up first.”
Without looking back, Representative Han swiftly left, leaving behind the lingering traces of regret.
Left alone, Chairman Song, belatedly staggering, walked out. Although he had entrusted his heart as usual, calling the money counterfeit was unexpected. Even though he had never touched such an item in his life, he felt like he was losing the carefully built connections from scratch. How did he accumulate connections from the ground up?
To trample on the heads of humans who refused to acknowledge the power obtained by eating the backbone of his wife, he had to climb up. So, he had spent so much time and money trying to reach there, thinking that a man should at least try to immerse himself in politics.
It felt like everything was crumbling down. Chairman Song, feeling momentarily dizzy, leaned against the wall, breathing heavily. Then, he sharply rejected the supporting hand of the secretary who hurriedly approached and shouted.
“Do you know what it means to find out?!”
“I’m sorry. I couldn’t find out the identity no matter what. It seems like I’ve been living with a fake identity for a long time….”
He was truly like a ghost. He could have been someone who had flowed into China or Russia.
After the incident 13 years ago, the couple followed their dead son. He must have found himself in a situation where he could be sold anywhere in the world. At that time, he might have dreamt of revenge.
Thoughts about what to do kept tangling with each other. Although Eunchae came to mind as a means, she was just a pawn used for revenge, nothing more.
No. Not just a pawn. He still had something to take from Eunchae. That’s why he demanded the property to be bequeathed.
“All because of that damned child of Park Museong…….”
Chairman Song trembled, grinding his teeth. The copy of Park Museong’s will on the back of the paper was memorized in his head after just one look. There was nothing about the incident 13 years ago, of course, but it contained everything that should not be revealed.
Boldly leaving a will like a rat, sneakily leading it to this situation. Even if he were dead, he should have brought his bones and thrown them into the trash.
“Chairman, there’s a call…”
At that moment, the secretary showed the phone screen and stiffened.
「Kwon Kijoo, Security Team Leader.」
Checking the caller’s name, Chairman Song Myunghwan turned his head abruptly, as if he had seen a ghost.
“I need to take a break for a while. Go to Yangpyeong!”
Male lead is a Destined Young Husband (Female-dominant)
One-sentence summary: Wife-master, listen to my explanation!
Li Ruantang, a young lady from a prestigious family, stumbled and fell. When she woke up, she saw a noble and beautiful young man sitting by her bedside, wiping away tears.
The young master had slightly reddened eyes, and his every move exuded charm.
The sight made Li Ruantang’s eyes hot and her heart flutter. After all, she had made a bet with the young master Meng from the neighboring family. If she couldn’t marry a husband before the end of the year, she would have to admit defeat and give up the jade she had worked so hard to obtain.
Outside the window, the flowers were in full bloom.
Rather than losing the bet, the jade, and her face, Li Ruantang calculated that it would be better to seek marriage with the young master in front of her, killing three birds with one stone.
…
Meng Jun never thought that an accident during a spring outing would lead to them rolling down a cliff and into a river, yet still survive.
Now they were trapped in an unknown village, and Meng Jun had overheard that the family who had rescued them had their own intentions.
After all, it was Li Ruantang who had lost her mind and sought marriage first. He was only trying to protect himself!
Glancing at Li Ruantang, who was listing her own merits, the young husband’s voice softened, and he blushed as he lied, “W-wife-master, Wife-master, don’t you remember me?”
The young husband’s voice was clear and handsome, coaxing Li Ruantang’s heart to be soft and sweet, and she spared no effort to protect him.
It wasn’t until they returned to the capital that Li Ruantang suddenly remembered.
When they had fallen off the cliff, in order not to implicate Wei Yunruo, whom he secretly admired, the young husband had instead pulled her, who was slightly farther away, down the cliff with him…
Short summary by Yuushi L: Initially, the male lead (ML) liked another girl, while the female lead (FL) liked the ML. Both fell off a cliff. The FL temporarily lost her memory, and the ML, fearing others might take advantage of him, claimed FL was his wife while they were staying in a village. Later, when they returned home, the FL regained her memories and remembered that the ML liked someone else, so she kept her distance from him. However, during their time living together in the countryside, the ML’s view of the FL had completely changed. From this point, his pursuit of the FL begins.
