A wife blinded in an accident, a massive insurance payout, and a husband's dangerous desire.
My wife lost her sight in both eyes due to a car accident. A massive insurance payout is due to be deposited soon as compensation for that accident. I held my wife's hand tightly in the hospital room and shed tears, and people praised me as a devoted husband. But those tears were all a lie. I had a secret affair with a woman I'd long hidden away, calling her just a younger friend. Far from grieving my wife's despair, we saw it as an opportunity to start a new life. On the day the insurance money was deposited, only one thought circled my mind: "If my wife dies... wouldn't I get even more money?" For my blind wife, every day was a series of dangers. A single step on the stairs... one trip across a crosswalk... a tiny mistake could lead to death. I wore a gentle smile while supporting her, but in my heart, I harbored the exact opposite wish. "I hope it's today... an accident, despair... any reason will do." I had no intention of getting my own hands dirty. I simply waited for fate to do it for me. My wife's death was not a tragedy to me, but the final piece that would bring insurance money, freedom, and a future with Seo Hayun. The world believed I was a devoted husband. But behind my smile, the cruelest desire was hidden, waiting for my wife's final breath.
