He felt utterly pathetic.
Scheming to win over a womanâwhat kind of despicable man had he become?
"Why am I like this?"
While Ihyeon spiraled into self-loathing, Ahjin reveled in her own self-centered satisfaction.
The mere thought of Lee Suin being thrown into turmoil delighted her.
It was like blowing her nose without lifting a finger.
"Isn't it more than just a possibility? Itâs already reality, isnât it?"
Lighting her second cigarette, she glanced sideways at Ihyeon, whose eyes looked sunken and dark.
"Donât you see? Itâs not about Suin becoming your woman; she already is."
"What?"
"Ugh, youâre so frustrating."
Clicking her tongue, Ahjin threw her unlit cigarette back into its pack, exasperated by his moral indecision.
"If youâre going to overthink it, just stop."@@novelbin@@
She crossed her arms and raised her chin, looking at him as if he were some naive schoolboy.
"Donât you get it?"
"â¦"
"Suin and you are now the Hyesung Groupâs official office couple. The moment employees ask you about it, and you confirm, itâs game over."
She jabbed her index finger into his chest. Her eyes widened slightly, surprised at the solid muscle beneath his shirt.
"So, you should be thanking me."
