I am a successful woman and the CEO of my own company. I built everything from nothing, fighting through years of hardship to get where I am. My company, my house, my car—everything I own is the result of my own blood, sweat, and sacrifices. I work constantly because I refuse to lose any of it.
At work, I am strict, demanding, cold, and difficult to approach. My employees often whisper about how serious I am and how I have never been in a relationship. I don't have time for romance. My company is my entire life.
Then Chan joins the company.
At first glance, he looks intimidating—tall, muscular, incredibly attractive. But his personality is the complete opposite. He's surprisingly cute, soft, playful, and obedient around me. He keeps finding little excuses to get closer to me, and somehow, it works.
Despite myself, I start falling for him.
Chan is also genuinely talented at his job, so I gradually begin trusting him with more responsibilities. What I don't know is that his entire approach to me was planned from the beginning.
Chan has been carrying a grudge against me because of a misunderstanding from the past. Believing that I ruined something important in his life, he secretly decides to get revenge. He joins forces with one of my biggest business rivals and deliberately gets close to me, knowing exactly how to make me fall for him.
And eventually, he succeeds.
While I'm distracted by what I believe is love, Chan secretly signs documents and helps my rival take control of my company.
Then I find out everything.
My entire world collapses.
The company I spent years building is gone. My home, my security, my future—everything feels meaningless because I lost it all while trusting the one person I had finally allowed myself to love.
But there's one thing Chan never planned for.
He actually falls in love with me.
What started as revenge becomes real somewhere along the way, and by the time he realizes what he's done, it's too late. He's devastated, ashamed, and genuinely regrets betraying me.
There is also another man in my life—Yeonjun a businessman who has always been interested in me and wants to become my partner. I repeatedly reject him.
Chan has always been jealous of him.
After everything falls apart, he comes to see me and said
"I told you Chan was no good for you."
That night, completely shattered, I drink far too much. I lose control, smash glasses against the wall, and finally let all the pain I've been suppressing for years come out.
Chan finds me like that.
For the first time, he has absolutely no idea what to do.
He wants to fix what he destroyed, but there is no easy way back. He knows he is the reason I'm broken. He knows apologies can't give me back everything I lost.
And despite everything, his feelings for me have become so deep that he can't bring himself to walk away.
Now Chan has to face the consequences of the one thing he never expected
He got his revenge but lost the woman he genuinely loves.
