You Accepted the Contract (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 49

Ever since meeting Mi Joo, So Min had been in a foul mood, her irritation boiling over to the very tips of her hair.

‘What does she have to be so confident about when she has nothing!’

By So Min’s standards, it was even more infuriating that Mi Joo—who had nothing—came across as dignified. That very grace, which So Min longed for so desperately, seemed to emanate naturally from Mi Joo.

“Just because she’s got one pretty face—that’s all she’s got.”

Though she couldn’t accept any devaluation of her own inherited wealth, she instinctively belittled Mi Joo’s natural beauty and scrutinized her own reflection in the mirror.

The image of Mi Joo standing unflinching and proud before her own cold mockery and jealousy only intensified her fury.

Just thinking about Si Yoon—tossing aside the honor of the H.O. Group and helplessly drowning in love for Mi Joo—made her blood boil, and imagining Mi Joo manipulating that very Si Yoon in the palm of her hand sent her rage surging through her veins.

‘I wanted him, but now that things have turned this way, I’ll either snatch him away—or, if that’s impossible, I’ll trample those two who made me look so pathetic.’

But attacking Si Yoon would be difficult; he was sharp-witted and backed by a powerful family.

‘Though it’s not entirely impossible. I just need to shake Mi Joo alone.’
