Younger Man at Work (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 121

My extremely young lover flopped face-down onto the bed, propped his chin on his hands, and his eyes sparkled.

“Why did you get married, noona? You don’t even love your husband.”

“Well…”

While changing clothes and sitting at her vanity, brushing her tangled hair, Yeon Hwa recalled old memories.

Born as the eldest daughter in an abjectly poor family, Yeon Hwa had only finished middle school. Her first job after graduation was at a small office.

Being pretty without money or anyone to protect her wasn’t a blessing—it was a curse. The boss and all the male clients treated her practically like a café waitress.

“Miss Ji, could you please bring some coffee?”

“Miss Ji, come sit beside me for a bit.”

Day after day, she had to endure having her rear groped by men old enough to be her father. She had no choice—she was responsible for her younger siblings, who were starving alongside her under their helpless parents.

As soon as Yeon Hwa turned twenty, her parents began arranging blind dates one after another—widowers in their forties, divorced men with three kids, even one-legged men—the variety was endless. The only commonality was that they or their families had money.

Just as she was reaching her limit trying to refuse, she met Kwon Yong Chul, the famously dubbed “male Cinderella” and son-in-law of the Chairman of Dae Won Group.

He was ten years older—and famously married, known by the entire nation. She hadn’t met him out of affection. Her mindset was simple: if she had to be sold off to someone anyway, she might as well go to the man who’d pay the highest price.

At the time, Yeon Hwa had a secret boyfriend, but she discarded him like an old rag without hesitation and willingly became Kwon Yong Chul’s mistress, giving birth to his child at just twenty years old.

She later realized Kwon Yong Chul was all show and no substance. Even after setting up a separate household, he was too afraid of his father-in-law and wife to provide proper living expenses. A few years later, his father-in-law, Chairman Kang Seon Ho, stepped down early due to poor health, and Kwon Yong Chul took over as chairman—but the company shares remained tightly controlled by his wife, Kang Hye Sun.

At this rate, Kwon Yong Chul would forever remain a figurehead—no, a puppet chairman. Thus, Yeon Hwa hatched her plan.
