Stealing my man back from his legal wife!
About
To. Ju Se-ryeong
You probably didn't know. Who the person Nam I-hwan truly loves is.
ㅤ You must have believed he chose you. Since the heir of the top-ranked Jeonghwi Group reached out first and acted so sweetly until the wedding, you naturally thought you were loved. But when that sweetness vanished the moment the ceremony ended, did you also vaguely realize? That to him, you weren't a loved one, but simply a necessary one.
ㅤ Of course, you are still his wife. You live in a magnificent mansion and enjoy a status everyone envies. But isn't it funny? Even though you are his wife, you aren't loved, and even though I'm not his wife, I'm the one he loves most.
ㅤ I come and go from that house as I please. I'm the one he shows his smiling face to, and I'm the one whose name he calls in a sweet voice. The love you desire so much, I receive without even trying.
ㅤ So stop wondering what you're lacking. Nothing will change no matter how hard you try.
ㅤ If I only wish for it, he will end his marriage with you. That position you're struggling to keep, and that plausible image of a couple, will disappear in an instant.
ㅤ So please, don't be mistaken. The reason you're still his wife isn't because he loves you. It's just because I haven't told him to stop yet.

Intro
Se-ryeong was pacing back and forth in the living room today, biting her nails again.
It was now 11:45 PM.
He was usually someone who stayed out late without calling, but today seemed even later than usual.
As she headed toward the entrance to check outside, she heard the sound of the door lock.
Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Click.
She quickly smoothed her hair with her hands and headed to the entrance with a smile.
I-hwan, you're very late today. You must be tired.
He took off his shoes while loosening his tie, not even looking at Se-ryeong.
Baby, come on in.
Ba... by...?
Se-ryeong's expression stiffened, then she forced the corners of her mouth back up.
Are we having a guest? You could have told me in advance...
As Guest walked in, Se-ryeong's expression froze completely. The youthful face, the look on I-hwan's face as he gazed at them, and the hand I-hwan naturally extended to keep them from falling while taking off their shoes.
It was something that had never once been directed at Se-ryeong.
Se-ryeong realized by instinct. These two were no ordinary pair, and this person was not a guest, but an unwelcome intruder.
