We are putting a lot of effort into elevating the level of refinement and creating a clean culture within the Palace of Pine Blossoms. We cannot accept a thief as a member.
In the face of such a firm stance, Young Suk felt defeated. If she was forcibly expelled, what would she say to Ji Hwa Ja or Hye Mi?
Feeling helpless, all Young Suk could do now was to beg.
“Ah, please, give me another chance! If it’s permanent expulsion, does that mean I can’t set foot in the Palace of Pine Blossoms ever again?”
Yes, that’s correct. From now on, you, Young Suk, will not be able to use any services of the Palace of Pine Blossoms.
“No, wait, teacher! I absolutely can’t accept that!”
Especially because she couldn’t admit she had stolen in front of Hye Mi. If she suddenly stopped going to a place she had praised so much, anyone would find it strange.
I’m sorry, member.
“Isn’t this too much?”
As she faced a wall of refusal, she felt so frustrated that everything seemed annoying.
“How big a deal can one cosmetic item be! It’s turned my life upside down!”
It was a product customized to each individual. We cannot take responsibility for any side effects caused by using someone else’s item that does not suit you. If you have left any belongings in the locker at the center, you can collect them within this week. After that, your access will be restricted.
“Ah!”
In the end, Young Suk slumped down right there with a blank expression on her face.
“As you instructed, it has been taken care of.”
“You’ve worked hard.”
Finally, Young Suk was expelled. She thought it would be fun to have Young Suk join, but she was more of a trouble than expected.
Now, she seemed capable of anything. Even theft…
“Phew…”
A sigh escaped naturally as the staff member left.
Young Suk should be thankful that she didn’t end up at the police station.
She wanted to let Young Suk go, her desire was as strong as a chimney, but she held back thinking of Do Ha. If Young Suk was handed over to the police, her whole family would find out, and so would Do Ha.
Even when they were young, Hyun Seo had always pitied Do Ha for having a mother like Young Suk. How shocked he would be to find out that such a mother had even resorted to theft.
Moreover, since the person who had expelled his mother was his beloved one, finding out about this situation would make him feel like he was floundering in the mud.
Especially these days, Do Ha was constantly pining for Hyun Seo. His heart would be even more of a mess.
“Right, speaking of which, I should return that too…”
Hyun Seo muttered, looking at the box containing the last gift Young Suk had sent.
It was funny to keep getting gifts, but now she wouldn’t have to see that nonsense anymore. The gifts were laughable, but the letters filled with flattery made her stomach churn every time she read them.
It was even funnier to watch her desperate to return, knowing her desire to visit the center.
However, in the end, she couldn’t even manage to be a regular member, let alone a premium one, so she must be quite upset by now.
Her vanity, always wanting to climb higher even if she had to force it due to her inferiority complex and guilt, had always been unpleasant to witness.
Hyun Seo quietly savored the thought of Young Suk, who would be throwing a tantrum and sulking by now, with a smirk. It was quite satisfying to have shattered her pride like this today.
There was a time when she sincerely treated her well, but she was a person who could not change. She lost everything because of her.
Thinking about it made her clench her fists. She calmed herself down and took a sip of the tea in front of her.
One nuisance was taken care of, so now it was time to move on to the next task.
“Ah…”
But then, Hyun Seo closed her eyes for a moment and held her forehead. Suddenly, she had a headache.
Had he been overworking himself lately?
He seemed to have overdone it.
“Mother, what were you doing?”
“Oh, I just stepped out for some fresh air.”
After not contacting Hye Mi for a few days, she was the one who called.
“Oh, did you? I was going to suggest we go to Songhwa Palace. If you’re free tomorrow, would you like to join me?”
“Eh? Ah, no. I’m tired of going there now.”
“You’re tired of it? You enjoyed it just a few days ago.”
“I just find it a bit tedious to go there now, all of a sudden.”
“Why all of a sudden….”
Despite the disappointment in Hye Mi’s voice, Young Suk had nothing to say.
“Anyway, I’m outside now so I’ll hang up. Let’s talk later.”
Without waiting for a response, Young Suk hung up the phone hastily and looked around.
In fact, she was already at Songhwa Palace. She had made this last visit to collect the items she had been keeping here.
Should she go on like this?
No! She can’t!
Despite her thoughts, Young Suk, who couldn’t accept it, finally turned away from the direction of the locker.
Young Suk arrived in front of the director’s office soon, and before the secretary could greet her, she spoke urgently.
“I need to see the director! Okay?”
It was a desperate situation, and Young Suk didn’t even realize she was speaking informally to the secretary. Moreover, she was speaking so loudly that it echoed around.
“Please, I need a favor!”
“I’m sorry, member.”
“So, you’re not going to show that high and mighty face till the end, huh?”
Young Suk intentionally shouted loudly, as if to be heard towards the director’s office.
“You should at least show the courtesy of showing your face once, after kicking someone out even after accepting their gift, right?”
Just then, she heard a male employee’s voice.
“Sir, you shouldn’t do this.”
As she raised her voice, two security guards nearby approached to restrain her. Then, Young Suk, as if determined, pushed one of the guards aside and tried to rush into the director’s office.
“Move!”
But she was soon blocked by them again.
“Let go of me!”
As the uproar worsened, the phone on the secretary’s desk rang.
“Yes, Director.”
Young Suk turned her head and saw the secretary answering the phone.
“Yes, I apologize, Director. It’s quite noisy outside, isn’t it?”
Knowing it was the director on the phone, Young Suk’s eyes widened.
“Yes, that’s correct.”
She thought she needed to snatch the phone and talk to the director herself.
“Yes, Director. I will convey that.”
Just as Young Suk was about to fight off the security guards, the secretary hung up the phone and spoke to Young Suk.
“Member Han Young Suk, the director would like to see you now.”

Ex-husband Wants Reconciliation
One-line summary: Chasing the wife to the crematorium (making an effort to attract someone who has become indifferent), the female lead doesn’t look back, the second male lead takes the position.
Intro:
To repay the kindness of the older generation, Su Mu crossed into a female-dominated world and became a live-in daughter-in-law of the Yan family, single-handedly saving the Yan family from fire and water.
But her husband, Yan Jiyue, the eldest son of the Yan family, treated her with sarcasm and never showed her a good face.
It wasn’t until after Su Mu’s death that this pampered and arrogant young master shed a few fake tears and pretended to want to die for love.
This life’s kindness was enough. If there was a next life, she would definitely kick Yan Jiyue away.
Who knew that the heavens would be so kind as to allow her to be reborn, returning to the time when she had just married into the Yan family.
Su Mu glanced at the Yan eldest son, who still spoke coldly to her, and threw a divorce letter in front of him.
“Let’s divorce!”
***
Yan Jiyue never imagined that he would be reborn. He happily went to find Su Mu, wanting to make up for the mistakes he had made in his ignorant youth.
Wasn’t the reason the heavens allowed him to be reborn to let him reconcile with Su Mu?
But when he pushed open the door to Su Mu’s room, the person lying on the bed was another man.
Su Mu’s personal attendant, Xie Yi.
Yan Jiyue hated him so much that his teeth itched. In front of Su Mu, Xie Yi was a gentle and considerate whisperer of sweet nothings, but in reality, he was vicious-hearted and deliberately sabotaged their husband and wife relationship.
In the previous life, it was he who secretly hid in Su Mu’s coffin and committed suicide, stealing a step ahead of him to be buried with Su Mu.
Yan Jiyue’s eyes were filled with hatred as he cursed, “What kind of thing are you? Your background is lowly, what right do you have to occupy Su Mu?”
Xie Yi looked at the sleeping Su Mu and no longer pretended to be a whisperer of sweet nothings.
He proudly stuck out his belly, “I have the right because my belly is capable of giving the Wife-master a daughter.”
***
Yan Jiyue was consumed with jealousy. He spread rumors that Xie Yi had once been branded with the mark of a “harlot” on his chest.
But on the night Xie Yi cut off the flesh bearing that mark, Su Mu suddenly realized something was amiss.
“How did you know the exact moment I was poisoned? And why did you show up a month early?”
Xie Yi remained silent, blood from his wound soaking through his robes. His sapphire eyes brimmed with anguish – or was it just a flawless act?
Between a once-arrogant husband now seeking redemption, and a gentle soul willing to die for her – who truly held the darkest secrets? And could it be that Su Mu and Yan Jiyue weren’t the only ones given a second chance at life…?
