Caught off guard by the mention of an unexpected figure, Hyun Seo turned his head away to look out the car window as if to avoid it.
“Hmm.”
“He’s really handsome, isn’t he?”
“Huh?”
Feeling awkward for no reason, Hyun Seo glanced at Lucas and then turned his eyes back to the outside of the window.
“Well, I don’t know…… He’s not my type……”
“Really? I think he’s quite cool, even from a guy’s perspective……”
“I see……”
“But wasn’t he a bit strange that day?”
“When?”
“That day. The day of the onsite meeting that you also attended. He was a bit odd.”
Hyun Seo felt awkward as if he had been caught. He wondered if Lucas had noticed the awkwardness of his encounter with Do Ha.
Had it been noticeable?
“What was?”
However, Hyun Seo asked while blankly staring at the uneventful scenery outside the window.
“I think…… that guy, he seems to have a crush on you, Hyun Seo.”
At Lucas’s candid remark, Hyun Seo felt his heart sink.
“No way.”
Trying to dismiss it as a ridiculous joke and laugh it off, Lucas was unusually serious.
“Otherwise…… why would he have only looked at you?”
The awkward smile also disappeared from Hyun Seo’s face.
Had it been noticeable to others?
He thought it must have looked suspicious. Why did he act so openly, really.
“It won’t be like that, Lucas.”
“No. You’re pretty, Hyun Seo. Any man could fall for you.”
“……Haha. Thanks for the compliment.”
Even though Hyun Seo tried to brush it off as a joke, Lucas just tilted his head.
“Just as the same male species…… It’s a feeling that I think I can instinctively know.”
“……Don’t overdo it.”
Hyun Seo sighed softly and said.
“No. I don’t feel good, Hyun Seo. I feel like I’m sensing a danger signal.”
“……”
Looking at Lucas who was setting the mood over nothing, Hyun Seo dismissively said to him as if she wasn’t a big deal.
“Well, there’s nothing to see anymore.”
However, Lucas kept a bitter expression on his face.
“If you create an opportunity, you’ll see her. If she asks to see you on purpose, would you see her, Hyun Seo?”
Caught off guard by Lucas’s question, Hyun Seo was momentarily stunned but soon answered with a calm face.
“No, why would I……”
“Doesn’t the Maehwa Center have its own restaurant?”
Today was the day Young Suk visited Songhwa Palace with Hye Mi.
“Yes, Ji Hwa Ja said that it operates on a reservation basis, so you have to book in advance.”
“The general restaurants in Songhwa Palace are great, I wonder how good it must be there. I want to go.”
Young Suk had been miffed for a moment because of the incident where Hye Mi clung to Mrs. Kang in a pitiful way not to be kicked out alone last time.
However, Hye Mi had laid out an excuse saying that she had to get closer to Mrs. Kang even if she had to stay, so she could mediate reconciliation with her mother.
Even though she felt annoyed, she had no choice but to bring her along as she was the wife of Joo Hyuk, her only remaining daughterinlaw.
With neither the chairman nor her eldest son showing her any attention, it was bitter but Joo Hyuk and his wife were the only family she could count on.
At first, Young Suk was happy just to enter Songhwa Palace, but now she wanted to receive topnotch treatment like at Maehwa Center.
“Now that it’s come to this, I have to become a Maehwa member even if I have to come here.”
“But how?”
Young Suk smirked with a meaningful smile.
“I’ll have to try everything I can.”
“So, can I just trust mother this time too?”
Hye Mi, not knowing Young Suk’s scheme, went along with her and started counting chickens before they hatched.
“Let’s go see Director Kim.”
“What for?”
“You’ll see when you get there.”
.

.
As Director Kim approached the lobby, Young Suk greeted her particularly warmly that day.
“Director Kim! Nice to see you.”
“Hello, Mrs. Han. But why are you looking for me?”
In her characteristic polite and businesslike tone, Director Kim spoke. Young Suk handed her a box that had nothing written on it.
“Please deliver this to Director Luna Lee.”
“What is this?”
Director Kim took it with calm hands and asked.
“Well, it’s too embarrassing to tell you what’s in it. Tell her not to feel burdened, it’s not a big deal. Also, tell her I said I hope she’ll accept this humble gift.”
Young Suk added hesitantly.
“Also, let her know that one day, I definitely want to become a Maehwa member.”
Being a Maehwa member wasn’t just a simple promotion. It wasn’t about rising through the ranks, having been through Ran, Guk, and Juk.
“Ah……”
Young Suk, hesitating, forced the box into Director Kim’s hands and then stood up from her seat.
As they stepped outside, Hye Mi, unable to hold back her curiosity, stealthily asked her motherinlaw.
“What’s in that, mother?”
“I’m trying a gift offensive on the director. It’s a new Chanel bag, so it should work. I’ve never seen a woman who doesn’t like bags.”
“Wow, really? Mother, do you have to invest that much?”
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~
