After severing her admiration and connection, Hae Joo had to become tough as nails.
She never broke down even in front of customers who poured out abuse, thinking that she would fall if she cried. It was the stubbornness she built while dealing with various people as a salesperson.
Thanks to such effort, dealing with people who played tricks or rudely demanded was not a problem. Even the employees who had initially ignored and ridiculed Hae Joo could not act carelessly later.
After becoming an actress, she received praise from movie directors for her audaciousness, which was uncharacteristic for a newcomer.
Hae Joo believed she herself had a not insignificant spirit, but she was no match for Do Jun. From him, she felt an energy that could easily suppress an average existence.
If what she saw was just a fraction?
Perhaps he might be a man too difficult for Hae Joo to handle.
“Mr. Pak Do Jun.”
“Speak.”
“If you interrupt me one more time, I won’t let it slide.”
The corners of Do Jun’s mouth briefly twitched before finding their place again.
To him, a rabbit whining in a tiger’s den, having come of its own accord, was nothing but cute.
“I’m sorry. Speak.”
“I’m an actress, and I want to continue acting in the future.”
“So?”
“As I said yesterday, my marriage became known and everything got twisted.”
“Isn’t it not a sin to be married?”
“The public didn’t know I was married, and I didn’t feel the need to disclose it either.”
“Why not?”
“It was exactly two weeks! The marriage period I knew of.”
Hae Joo intended to humbly disclose the fact that she had been married when it became known. The man she had known as her husband had left the world after a short relationship, so how she packaged it was up to her.
But the marriage relationship that had continued until now was of a different dimension. It was nothing but hiding that she had a husband.
The price for deceiving the public unwillingly was severe.
The companies she had contracted with for commercials demanded the exact facts. If her image took a hit, not only would the contracts be canceled, but she would also have to bear the losses resulting from that.
Sensational news poured out in realtime. The flow of public opinion was not good, with even unspeakable hate comments added.
“I see. I don’t know much about the entertainment industry.”
Only now did Do Jun respond to Hae Joo’s words with serious eyes. He nodded repeatedly, as if he had a lot of thoughts.
“If things continue like this, my life is over. There’s no hope.”
Jin Han was a person who could not be left out in Hae Joo’s life as an actress.
Hae Joo didn’t trust people and was so guarded that she had trouble even with casting.
He poured out energy to make Hae Joo the best actress to the point where the word “sincere devotion” came out of the agency.
The result was successful.
As soon as Hae Joo’s debut work was released, she made a name for herself as a leading actress of the next generation in the film industry.
Then, a marriage scandal broke out. If they quietly divorced here, it couldn’t be undone. Considering Hae Joo’s image built over the years, it was better, as Jin Han suggested, for Do Jun to act as her devoted husband.
“Speak your mind.”
“Can you really help me?”
“If I can.”
It was a puzzle to begin with that an actress of ripe age had a shotgun wedding.
Whatever it took, they had to get through this crisis.
The situation was that their agency suggested Do Jun disguise himself as a husband who had devoted himself to Hae Joo.
It was uncertain if it was possible to pretend to be a couple who had carried on their true love.
Oddly enough, it was Do Jun’s attitude.
Unlike anxious Hae Joo, an inexplicable leisureliness seeped out.
It was the slight upturn of his lips and the secretively twisted corners of his eyes.
That didn’t mean he wasn’t serious. He actively responded to Hae Joo’s words, but was often lost in thought. That’s why it was even harder to figure him out.
“Let’s do it like this.”
“Speak.”
“From now on, Mr. Do Jun and I are a couple tied by first love.”
“First love….”
“Mr. Do Jun becomes a devoted husband who quietly helped me, a nobody.”
“Devoted?”
“Yes. Is it possible?”
“So you’re saying we should act like we’ve lived together from the start?”
It didn’t appeal to Hae Joo to deceive the public.
Furthermore, in the entertainment industry, where one could be buried with one mistake, it was a risky act.
They couldn’t negate the marriage relationship they had filled for 3 years. If they were to divorce as if it had been found out now, it could turn into a bigger problem.
“It has to be a romance that would make the public jealous, right?”
“I’d rather ask.”
“What is it?”
“Is it possible?”
His resounding voice stimulated Hae Joo’s senses, breaking down any barriers in a single sweep.
His deep madness enthralled Hae Joo.
It seemed like a phrase used to describe his ability to drive his opponents mad, given the rumors that he was a madman.
Surprised by an unexpected situation, it was Hae Joo. She averted her gaze at Do Jun’s provocation, which seemed far from romance.
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:
