The vice president's office at Seogwang Pharmaceuticals was located on the top floor, alongside the president's office. Around the time Kwon Yihan was first assigned there, a rumor spread through the stock market alongside the official announcement of his transfer to Seogwang Pharmaceuticals. It was said that Chairman Kwon of Seogwang Group had banished Kwon Yihan to the periphery in order to bring his illegitimate child into the group. Otherwise, there was no reason for Kwon Yihan, who had been working…-

His expression was the same as before, but he looked slightly bored. Her hand hovered in the air, trembling. Unable to bring herself to sign the last page, she met his gaze. “How much do you know about me?” “I probably know more about your condition than you do.” “…….” As Gyeoul hesitated to sign, Secretary Cha slowly tried to place his hand over hers. “Secretary Cha, don’t startle her.” He stopped the secretary’s movement with a low voice. “Or has the…

He was accompanied by a man she had never seen before. Perhaps he had just come from an outside engagement, as his hair was neatly styled, and he wore a perfectly fitted three-piece suit, looking just as polished as he did in the online news photos. The secretary who followed him wore glasses and had a relatively gentle impression. He was slightly slimmer than Kwon Yihan and wore a well-fitting suit. His appearance wasn't particularly striking. Compared to them, Gyeoul, in her hospital gown with her…

With a puzzled look, she shook it a little harder. The drawer cracked, and the wooden handle, unable to withstand the force, came off. A small hole was left where the handle had been. She carefully peered through the hole. “…It’s too dark to see.” Perhaps because they had been left untouched for so long, the furniture in this house broke easily. The drawer seemed like it would completely fall apart if she pushed it any further. Gyeoul didn't want to damage her mother's belongings like…

⋆˙🌊༄.° It was strange. To Gyeoul, other people’s pheromones smelled terribly foul. It didn't matter whether the concentration was faint or strong. The stronger they were, the more agonizing it was; it had never been pleasant. Could her constitution be returning to normal? Doctors had diagnosed her with an unexplained pheromone aversion or sensitivity. They mostly treated her condition as a psychological issue. It was understandable, since she had undergone tests at several hospitals…

"I wonder if you dislike the smell of cigarettes.” Perhaps because he had a cigarette in his mouth, his pronunciation was slightly slurred. Even that voice was pleasant to hear. Was this also a characteristic of a dominant Alpha? "It's okay." "Most people hate it.” "I guess my tastes are a bit unique.” Instead of replying, he gave a small smile. “Do you usually smoke here?” "Today, a valued guest was blocking the front door, so I couldn’t go in directly." Gyeoul…

"Then... I'll do it for just one month. After that, I really need to rest." 「Alright.」 A faint hint of amusement touched his voice, as if pleased with her answer. "Then I'll see you next week. Get some rest." Gyeoul ended the call after her closing remarks. Perhaps because she was overly tense, despite having brazenly carried on this charade for so long, her heart pounded anxiously, as if she had committed a grave sin. "...It'll be okay." She muttered this to herself and then…

This lesson was different from all the tutoring she had done so far. She had agreed to receive more than five times her usual tutoring fee on the condition that she teach only one student, six days a week. This was possible thanks to Hyungwoo's mother's introduction. Due to her precarious position, Gyeoul initially declined, saying the fee was too high and burdensome. As the new year began, the cost of her medication increased, putting her in a difficult spot. Then, Hyungwoo’s mother contacted…

Even without checking pheromones, she could tell at a glance that he was an Alpha. This man was probably a rare dominant Alpha. Unlike Omegas, who were difficult to distinguish from Betas in appearance, Alphas, especially dominant ones, were different from their very bone structure. Tall height, an inverted triangle torso, broad shoulders, and thick, long bones. Even though Gyeoul's coat covered her body, the man's physique was clearly different from others. A red warning light flashed in her mind.…

The Earth grows hotter with each passing day due to climate change, they say, yet this winter was recording its lowest temperatures. Most people entering the cafe had bright expressions. The warmth rushing to greet them seemed welcome, given the extreme cold outside. However, Gyeoul frowned as soon as she opened the cafe door, hit by the warm interior air. Pulling her scarf up to cover her mask, she located her waiting companion and sat across from him. "Teacher Gyeoul, it's been a while." "Yeah,…
