Eun-cho knew everything. Tae-san furrowed his brow deeply, a mask of awkwardness. The woman, who had refused the umbrella in the end, walked away without a word. He would have preferred resentment. A curse, even. Her detached demeanor was particularly unsettling. Her back as she walked into the rain seemed impossible to grasp. As if she would vanish into thin air at any moment. "Lee Eun-cho……." Eun-cho remained calm throughout. She didn't even flinch as she was completely…-

Rain streaked down the large window in slanted lines, racing downward. An odd silence lingered between the three of them. “Eun-cho isn’t feeling well,” Tae-san said. “Oppa, I’ll see you later,” Eun-cho added softly. She began to walk slowly, following Tae-san. Maybe it would have been easier if she hadn’t heard the real estate gossip about Baekwoon Construction leading the development in the Cheongnim-ri area. Even now, Bonghwang’s voice echoed in her ears, talking about…

Drip. Drip. Just then, as if on cue, thick raindrops began to fall. It was raining—almost as if the sky had read Eun-cho’s heart and mirrored her urge to cry. She would have rather been soaked by it. If it had to rain, she wished it would pour—hard enough to wash away the turmoil and clutter in her head. In a flash, the rain thickened, soaking her hair and shoulders with cold, heavy drops. By now, Eun-cho had already walked a considerable distance away from Bonghwang and…

Tae-san pressed hard on the corners of his gritty eyes. It felt as though finely crushed glass had been sprinkled in them, making them sting. His head was heavy with accumulated fatigue. It was no wonder, considering he had been traveling back and forth between Seoul and Cheongnim-ri for the past fifteen days. Moreover, no matter how much he tried to clear his workload, it kept piling up, leaving him swamped. These days, he even had a driver to save time on the road, using the driving time…

Tae-san's eyes trembled and contorted as he looked at Sunyeong. He had thought that their recent awkward relationship as a married couple might be discovered, but he never expected her to bring up their contract marriage. How on earth, or rather, when had she found out? Grandmother, who had been wearing a deliberately serious expression, firmly grasped Tae-san's hand. "You know better than I do how pitifully our Eun-cho grew up..." Even though the surgery had gone well, grandmother's worries…

Eun-cho went to work diligently, ignoring Jeong-seok's attempts to dissuade her. More than her physical discomfort, the chaos in her mind was troubling her, and she wished to be frantically busy. When she pushed herself harder than usual, Su-ji, who had been watching, erupted in anger. Led by Su-ji's insistent hand, she was now at the town's only family clinic, receiving an IV drip. Eun-cho stared at the slowly dripping IV fluid and drifted into thought. It was beyond her control. No…

The real estate office buzzed with excitement at the mention of a state-led project. It was only natural for the elders to be stirred up, as the scale seemed much larger than vaguely anticipated. By the atmosphere, it seemed like Baekwoon would take a central role, and Shingwang was hovering around, hoping to get a piece of the action. "Baekwoon? Eun-cho, haven't you heard anything from your husband about this?" "......" To think she'd hear Tae-san's name again in this context. Sadly,…

Eun-cho was momentarily stunned. There was no way a shady, third-rate loan shark company would have any connection with Ryu Tae-san of Baekwoon Group, aside from the old house. What business could they possibly have had seven months before they first met? It was even four months earlier than when Jeong-seok and Su-ji fled to Cheongnim-ri, so he couldn't use that as an excuse. "Did the call drop?" "No. I was just thinking about something else." "About me?" Tae-san, who had no way of…

After spewing such cruel, vicious remarks, Mrs. Jung rose from her seat, visibly agitated. Eun-cho also stood up, facing her father with an emotionless expression. Her father had always been a bystander in this relationship. She didn't expect much from him. Unlike Mrs. Jung, her father had a certain rigidity to him. Even after his estranged daughter had become a direct member of the Baekwoon family, his behavior hadn't changed. He wasn't the type to surrender to hierarchy or opportunistically…

Yunkang System. At first, she had simply intended to check the data on the memory card, but she was stopped at the very first hurdle. A memory card with a password. That was why Eun-cho found herself having a serious conversation with the owner of a shabby shop in Yongsan. Due to a strange sense of foreboding, she had no choice but to seek out a data recovery service. "This is a memory card that goes into high-end cameras. It can only be read by specific cameras." The fact that she couldn't…
