Chapter 14 A Final Goodbye Under Joo Sang-hee's gaze, Yuri was so nervous that her mouth went completely dry, making it difficult to speak. After hesitating for a long while, Yuri carefully opened her mouth. “Um. Madam, my throat is a little dry…. Could I have a cup of tea before I talk to you?” “Drink. Anyone would think I had been harshly scolding you.” “Thank you.” On the outside, she had always pretended to be considerate…. But in the end, when Yuri looked back, she had…-

Chapter 13 Madam Joo Sang-hee’s Summons Yuri spoke to Iseo, who had been looking at her with a worried expression. “There are still many things I have to take care of. I have to meet Madam Joo, and also Hyunwoo’s father….” “Hey! Don’t even mention that bastard’s name. That filthy bastard. How did you find out he was cheating?” “I saw it with my own eyes. At the villa in Yangpyeong….” “These crazy bastards! This is unbelievable.” The disgusting sight of the two…

Chapter 12 Don't Smile Carelessly Just as an awkward silence was about to settle in, one of the chefs in charge came in and greeted them. The chef quickly prepared an appetizer at the private cooking counter connected to the table and served it. The yukhoe salad placed in front of Yuri looked so appetizing that it was enough to bring back her lost appetite. “Try it first.” When Hushin pushed the salad plate closer to Yuri and recommended it, she tasted it as if she had no choice. Oh…

Chapter 11 Troubled? I Actually Liked It The place Hushin took Yuri was a famous Korean beef omakase restaurant that she had seen several times on television. Since they arrived around dinner time, the waiting line was extremely long. “Get out.” “…Yes, thank you.” Yuri hesitated for a moment, feeling awkward about his considerate gesture of opening the door for her, before carefully stepping out. She was always the one opening doors for other people. She was not used to having…

Chapter 15 Elisha went through several moments when her heart nearly dropped, but fortunately, nothing as serious as she had feared happened. That was because the topic had shifted to marriage. She did not like talking about marriage either, but it was still better than talking about Ethan. At least she did not have to worry about her secret being exposed. When the dinner, which had continued like walking a tightrope under unbearable tension, finally ended without incident, Elisha felt all the…-

Chapter 14 Elisha had agonized over the problem until it gave her a headache, yet Derek solved it far too easily. Rather than feeling jealous of that, she felt empty. She was also hurt. But she was not hurt by Derek. She was hurt by her mother. Her mother hated Noah because he was an illegitimate child with no proper bloodline, yet she cherished Derek, who had been born as an illegitimate child of the Grenville family. Of course, their situations were not the same. Noah Leslie had been born…

Chapter 13 She Is Not Your Son. It was something she had heard so often that she could have grown calluses in her ears from it. Every time she heard those words, it felt as if her heart were being cut with a sharp blade. She should have gotten used to it by now, but the pain that made her insides twist still came rushing back. Even so, Elisha had never properly argued against it. From the moment she went against her parents' wishes and gave birth to Noah, she had been branded a sinner. Of course,…

Chapter 12 After putting a lot of effort into physical training and self-defense, Jii’s position in the facility rose sharply as the years passed. She eventually reached a level where her real combat ability was among the top five, and after that, the number of people who could easily mess with her without borrowing the warden’s authority became extremely small. So they had no choice but to show her respect. As time passed, Jii, who had endured everything through sheer stubbornness and guts,…-

Chapter 11 Because whenever I had the ability to protect myself somehow, I had to protect myself by any means necessary. But this time, I had not come here for legitimate self-defense to protect myself. I had come here because of my determination for revenge, in order to do something that I should never do. Or could it be that my heart was beating like this simply because that man was too handsome? Either way, this was technically our first meeting, wasn't it? In Ji-i's eyes, the man had…

Chapter 10 “Homeless? Did you just call her homeless?” At Arang’s words, Jii immediately became sharp. “Yeah, homeless.” “Are you done talking?” “I’m not wrong…” At Jii’s reaction, Arang trailed off. “Let’s stop. Forget I said anything.” The veins on Jii’s forehead immediately stood out. She jumped up from her seat, and Arang grabbed her wrist again. “N-No. No. That’s not what I meant. I misspoke.” Then she pleaded desperately. It seemed…
