Tonight, the words of the only person who would bring me blessings were engraved in his mind like the command of an absolute authority. Carrying a tray with five wine glasses, Taeseo quietly followed behind the trainer.

“Mr. Jo and the lady who looks like a fox, they said it’s a total mess, right?”

Amber brought up the conversation between Jo Daehoon and Ji Seunghee amidst the noisy atmosphere. She knew roughly through people managed by him, but it seemed like she wanted to hear directly from Taeseo, who had a connection with the prosecutor.

However, Jaein seemed to not want to bother Taeseo, so she asked cautiously with a lower voice than usual.

“Well, it seems to take more time than I thought. It’s not that it’s difficult to prove the crime, but the husband and wife keep tearing each other apart, and the charges keep adding up. Just in case, it seems meaningless to hand over some of the information I have.”

“So, are they going to prison?”
“Compensation will be demanded, and fines will have to be paid. Although it may be inevitable to serve a prison sentence, it’s regrettable in many ways.”

“Well… Korean law is too lenient in some aspects. Fines of 280 billion won, imprisonment for 5,000 years! You should hit them hard like this.”

“Whether you serve a few years in prison or get released on parole, you’ll probably be fine. But still, you won’t be able to have Hyunyang Construction again. You’ll be penniless, after all.”

“Of course. I’m being harassed because of that person right now.”

“…Where on earth did you learn to say such things?”

Taeseo couldn’t keep up with Amber in the use of swear words or colloquial expressions. The Korean Amber learned, mainly in drinking sessions, was as spicy as her personality.

“Jo Yoori, that cute but naughty girl? She can’t even breathe around our Jaein, right?”

Suddenly, not only Sanghwa but also Amber referred to Jaein as ‘our Jaein.’

Taeseo, who was about to get a bit fierce with the desire for Jaein to be his alone, looked at Jaein, who was laughing and chatting with Sanghwa in a distant place, and smiled with satisfaction.

“Well, I already got rid of those guys who took money from Jo Yoori and loitered around our house.”

“Ha, everything she does gives me the creeps. Psycho, psycho. Wasn’t she even kicked out of the hotel where she stayed?”

“That’s what I heard.”

“What is she doing now? Is she hiding somewhere, turning her eyes back to bother our Jaein again?”

Jo Yoori, who was kicked out of the hotel, resisted and contacted friends or distant relatives who had some connection.

However, no one accepted her. With no money left and nowhere to go, she last contacted Kim Hyeongjoo, her stepfather and the former secretary of Jo Daehoon.

Kim Hyeongjoo contacted Taeseo first. Being busy cooperating with the prosecutor’s investigation, he received Jo Yoori’s contact while worrying about her.

“Yuri grew up like a child in a greenhouse all her life. She’s a child who believes she can do whatever she wants. She won’t easily accept the situation like this.”

“Mr. Kim Hyeongjoo. Please tell me the reason for contacting me.”

“I’m taking care of her now, but… if I just leave her alone, I don’t know what she’ll do.”

“Then…”

“I hope that girl doesn’t deteriorate any further. I hope there are no incidents or accidents caused by that girl.”

After being immersed in arrogance following the marriage announcement, Jo Yoori became the object of ridicule for those around her as soon as Taeseo’s interview was released.

Unable to accept her fallen and destitute state, she brought all the money she had and visited the messenger center again.

Jo Yoori requested the murder of Yoon Jaein there.

Regardless of the method, those who agreed to her request to kill her came to Taeseo as soon as Jo Yoori left and confessed everything. From that day on, Taeseo added more people behind Jo Yoori.
Until the end, Jo Yoori, who did not repent and kept causing trouble, was practically the biggest problem. So Taeseo asked Kim Hyeongjoo for his opinion.

“I’m going to hospitalize that girl. This is something Jiseunghee and Jodaehoon also agreed on.”

“… Are you okay with that?”

Even if Jodaehoon, who had no affection for Jo Yoori, and Jiseunghee, who was more urgent to live than her, made that choice, it was not an easy decision for Kim Hyeongjoo, the stepfather who had to bow his head to his daughter for the rest of his life.

“Yuri currently shows symptoms of alcohol addiction. Moreover, it seems she recently meddled with drugs… Treatment is necessary before it’s too late. However, I also think it’s the best choice for that child who has no one to take care of her, considering we can’t escape the judgment of the law. ”

With her parents becoming like that, Jo Yoori seemed to have fully relied on alcohol.

Reports that she drank every day even in the hotel, causing a scene while drunk, were already known. However, Taeseo didn’t know that she had also touched drugs.

Jo Yoori, who used to disdainfully despise and play with a group of people without effort, quickly collapsed when her support disappeared.

Taeseo, closing his eyes, gauged who might have reached out to her in her despair and with what kind of people she associated.

Among the third-generation chaebol heirs who inherited overflowing wealth without effort, there was a particularly dirty group that played recklessly.

It was a group that constantly tempted Taeseo during his study abroad. They enjoyed and took comfort in watching someone fall into the abyss with them.

So, this morning, before attending the prosecutor’s office, Kim Hyeongjoo admitted Jo Yoori to a hospital in Gangwon Province.

Taeseo also learned that Jo Yoori, who had resisted, claiming that she wouldn’t let things go quietly, was admitted to the hospital after receiving a tranquilizer.

“No need to worry. Don’t fret.”

As if reassuring Taeseo, he whispered and gave a bitter smile. In a way, he and Jo Yoori had something in common.

Both had no luck with parents. However, just because they grew up with bad parents did not justify Jo Yoori’s actions and words. Jo Yoori had to take responsibility for the consequences of her own mistakes.

“What are you talking about?”

Taeseo, who had approached without realizing it, smiled mischievously at Jaein. Yoon Jaein didn’t need to know about dirty and bad things. From now on, she would only see and hear good things. Because Taeseo would make it that way.

“Boring story.”

“Yeah?”

“Let’s ask the guests to leave now. I’m sleepy.”

“Liar.”

Taeseo, grabbing Jaein’s hand like scolding a tantrum-throwing child, pulled her close and drank the remaining wine from the glass she was holding.

Still, he had to endure more. Taeseo’s eyes, seeking fortune, kept glancing at the clock in the direction of the night.

When yandere male lead believes she loves him — but she never did

“How dare you!”

“How dare you make me love you, only to cast me aside as nothing more than a friend?!?

“I will never accept that.”

“I will never let you return to him.”

“Even if I have to burn myself to ashes.”

“Even if I must shatter my purity, my dignity, my very soul.”

“I will never let you escape me!”

This was the first novel that introduced me to the matriarchal genre. I’ve read it three times already!

At first, the male lead despised the female lead. Later, he misunderstood that she liked him, so he condescendingly and reluctantly reciprocated her feelings.

Then, he suddenly discovered that she was kind to everyone in the same way, and there was already someone she cherished in her heart, and that person was not him.

The male lead couldn’t believe it, he became angry and crazy. He was determined to capture her body and heart by any means necessary.

Synopsis:

Want to see how a green tea bitch male lead falls in love with the female lead?

Want to see how he flirtatiously pursues the female lead?

Want to see how he gets slapped in the face repeatedly?

The male lead is a green tea bitch, a poisonous lotus, jealous, ruthless, unscrupulous, with a venomous heart, and he’s also a delusional maniac.

The female lead is righteous, positive energy-filled, kind, a holy mother.

Let’s see how two people with extreme personalities come together~
