Chapter 2 The Surest Revenge “...I can no longer work for you after today. I’ll submit my resignation as soon as I get to work.” At Yuri’s unexpected words, Seol-ah opened her eyes wide and raised her voice. “What?! Are you crazy?” “No. I’m perfectly sane. And I’m calling off my marriage to Jang Hyun-woo as well, so don’t worry about me and do whatever you want.” Yuri desperately held back her trembling body, which was shaking from the tips of her toes.

Chapter 1 The End of Betrayal Ding. 2 a.m. on December 31. After receiving Seol-ah’s summons, Yuri finally straightened her hunched body and got out of bed. “Haah! Who on earth did she bring this time that she’s waking me up at this hour? I want to get some rest on a day like this too….” Yuri let out a deep sigh. Her face had every reason to show irritation, but there was no change in her expression. Yesterday, right after finishing her morning shift, she had planned to…

Chapter 07 “I’m Kwon Min-ah from next door! We used to buy dried fish and Jjonddeugi from the stationery store all the time! You and I were in the same grade until second grade, and then we got separated in third grade and cried our eyes out! Don’t you remember?” “Ah…!” A faint exclamation escaped Haesom’s lips. Jaehyun slightly turned his head and whispered quietly. “Kid. Do you remember anything?” “Yes…! I remember. You’re Min-ah! You were my neighborhood friend.…

Chapter 06 “Don’t you have anything to do? I’m sure I gave you several tasks to handle. Ah. Do you want me to send you to a tougher department?” “No!” “No, Director…!” Jehyeon slowly lowered his eyelids and calmed his slightly startled heart. Then he remembered what had happened that morning. “Please organize and submit all the contracts I’m currently handling and all the reports that haven’t been fully processed yet. Make sure there are no problems when I hand…

Chapter 05 Jaehyun added one more little white lie. He had never really thought about whether he preferred someone older, the same age, or younger, but he wanted to reassure him. “Yeah. These days, older women are the trend. Anyway, I’m counting on you, Jaehyun.” Taeyoo stopped talking and took out his wallet before handing him a card. Jaehyun quickly lowered his gaze to the card, then raised it again. “What is this?” “Buy yourself something delicious. Use it for your…

Chapter 04 Jaehyun briefly recalled the past. …Ah. Right. We were seventeen back then, weren’t we? Because of that incident, Geukju didn’t come to school for quite some time, and dark clouds hung over his once-harmonious family for several years. When Jaehyun saw Geukju again after a long time, he looked terrible, and he had kept his mouth tightly shut for more than half a year. The face Geukju had worn back then came vividly to mind. I used to follow him even when he went to the…

Chapter 03 Kiju gently held Haesom’s hand and spoke. “Don’t be surprised. Just listen. Mom and Dad searched for you for a very long time.” When Haesom nodded, Kiju stroked her head and continued. “There was a detective in charge of your case… On the tenth anniversary of the day you went missing, he announced his retirement and told Mom and Dad that there was no longer any hope that you were alive, so they should let you go and live the rest of their lives in peace….” Haesom…

Chapter 02 Haesom seriously considered knocking Sanghyuk unconscious with a headbutt and running away. Unaware that she was having such thoughts, Sanghyuk continued spouting nonsense. “You and I will be living together soon, you know? My mom and dad are already getting ready to welcome their daughter-in-law. You’re an adult now, too, so—” “What are you talking about! My mom won’t allow it! She said she would never let me marry a man like you.” “Hey. You’ve been living with…
