Whether it was bland or not didn’t seem to be the important thing.
“Anything is fine for me…”
“I don’t like bland food.”
Unconsciously, I furrowed my brows. If he was going to do as he pleased, why bother asking?
Seeing the smile on his lips, it seemed like he was in a playful mood.
“Hey, that expression. No teasing.”
I preemptively put a stop to it, worried he might tease me again like the last time.
As if unable to hold back, Jae Ha looked at me and said,
“Okay. Could you get me some salt from the top drawer next to the fridge?”
“Here?”
Looking at the storage unit I was pointing at, Jae Ha nodded.
It was quite high, so I tiptoed.
I barely opened the door and reached out towards the salt container in front of me, but it was just out of reach.
“Um… it’s high.”
As I murmured to myself and tried to reach again, a long arm stretched out from behind me.
“…!”
Surprised, I turned around to find Jae Ha standing very close.
‘Too close…’
He was so close that if he slightly bent his head, our noses would touch. I froze in place.
My gaze, meeting Jae Ha’s, wavered helplessly.
“I forgot I put it at my eye level.”
Each time he spoke, his deep breath descended, tickling my face.
One second, two seconds. Our gazes interlocked for a while.
I was so flustered that I couldn’t move easily.
Jae Ha put the container with the salt down and looked into my eyes.
“Why are you looking at me like that? I said I won’t tease.”
The playful smile that had appeared on Jae Ha’s face had faded.
He asked me in his deep, low voice,
“When you look at me like that, it makes me want to misunderstand.”
…Misunderstand what?
The moment Jae Ha’s clear eyes scanned me, my face flushed.
Only then did I regain my senses and stagger backwards away from him.
“Be careful!”
Suddenly, he pulled at my waist.
I had tried hard to pull away, but in the end, I was even closer to him than before.
“There’s a corner there. What if you get hurt without looking back?”
At the end of his gaze, the pointed corner of the dining table was visible.
However, the heat at my waist where his hand had touched was more intense than the dizzying thought of being hurt by the sharp corner.
My face was about to turn red again, all on its own.
Would he hear my heart starting to beat even harder than before?
I was just moving my lips, looking for something to say to him.
Just as our gazes were about to intertwine more deeply, he turned away from me first.
“Go and sit down. Dinner is ready.”
.
.
.
After dinner, I arrived home with Jae Ha, who offered to drive me home.
“I enjoyed the meal today. It was really delicious.”
“I’m glad you enjoyed it.”
It had been a long time since I ate a meal prepared for me by someone else.
Because I was always the one taking care of others.
“I’ll go now. Please take care.”
In the late hour, I hurriedly gathered my bag and tried to get out of the car.
“Hold on a moment.”
He unbuckled his seatbelt and pulled something rustling from the back seat.
It was a bouquet of white marguerites.
Jae Ha handed me the fragrant bouquet.
“What’s this?”
I asked in a surprised voice without realizing it. I hadn’t even imagined that he would give me flowers.
“A celebration… a gift?”
At his plain answer, a smile unwittingly flowed from me.
Seeing me smile faintly, he added an explanation with a satisfied face.
“Please also take care of the revenge that lies ahead.”
Jae Ha’s car left after leaving those words.
Under the night sky, looking at the flowers that shone white, a joyful smile formed on my face.
I really loved flowers, but when was the last time I received them as a gift?
Seeing as I couldn’t recall any particular memory, I thought it must be a long-forgotten old memory.
“…A pleasant bribe.”
I buried my face in the bouquet of flowers.
Although it smelled of grass, the scent was exciting enough to remind me of long-forgotten memories.
Seo Rin leaned against the sofa, lost in deep thought.
She was thinking about Yeo Jin, whom she had seen at the cafe.
That day, during lunchtime at a cafe, she had seen Yeo Jin talking to a middle-aged man.
She didn’t know who he was, but his dressed-up appearance and atmosphere were far from ordinary.
More than anything, she had clearly seen the USB he handed over to Yeo Jin along with a document envelope.
By the time she came to her senses, she had already copied the USB onto an external hard drive.
“Ha.”
Honestly, she felt it intuitively. That it would be an incredibly important card.
“I don’t know what it is, but it seems like I’ve found something tremendous?”
And now, looking at the content displayed on her laptop screen, she could tell that her intuition was terrifyingly accurate.
To be honest, Seo Rin didn’t understand the complex corporate affairs.
However, when she opened the file, a familiar three-letter name was the first thing to enter her sight.
‘CEO of Hojin Group, Ji Han Seo.’
Even at a quick glance, she could tell it was a project that the Hojin Group was ambitiously preparing.
And the person leading that project was Ji Han.
“And Yoon Yeo Jin had this?”
At first glance, it smelled fishy.
Seo Rin picked up the wine glass that had been placed next to her and tilted it slightly.
Her mouth, which had been dry and parched at the thought of Yeo Jin, was now incredibly sweet.
She hadn’t even thought about Ji Han’s side when she started their relationship.
It seemed that the day wasn’t far off when she would be called the lady of the Hojin Group if things continued like this.
Then, the phone placed next to her lit up with a vibration.
[Your order for the whole cake has been accepted. Pickup is……]Seeing the message, her mood instantly dropped, and she put the phone down.
How long did she have to keep acting like an angel?
“Ah, it’s annoying. I can’t even pretend to be nice.”
“An anchor has been newly selected, wouldn’t it be nice to have a congratulatory cake? Let’s prepare something.”
Seo Rin recalled the chilly atmosphere in the planning department at the casual remark thrown by the director.
The director, who had been indifferent until now, clearly felt discriminatory when he stepped forward to take care of Yeo Jin.
No one stepped forward at the director’s words, they were just looking at each other’s faces.
“I’ll prepare the cake.”
In the chilly atmosphere, Seo Rin reluctantly raised her hand.
“I know best what my sister likes.”
Seo Rin vividly remembered her colleagues’ words, discouraging her, asking why she was doing so much.
“Of course, I didn’t want to go this far either.”
It was just to avoid any disadvantages in the future.
Since joining as a contract employee, Seo Rin had been struggling to keep her position as the main news anchor.
‘The anchor audition, that was a chance that I had managed to grab.’
Even the anchor audition spot, which she had obtained with difficulty by convincing Ji Han, was snatched away by Yeo Jin.
She didn’t want to prepare a cake for Yeo Jin, but she had no choice but to endure it.
“That’s right, it’s time to put an end to this tedious acting.”
A position more tempting than the anchor was right in front of her.
If she could become a member of the Hojin family, her minor sadness would be nothing.
Everyone would look up to her now.
Driven by the thought that it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Seo Rin’s eyes sparkled with desire.

Was I nothing but his substitute to you from beginning to end?”
