It Was You From the Beginning

It was the worst reunion.

When she returned to Hae-ju to attend her father’s funeral,

Ji-woo ran into the man she didn’t want to meet the most.

“Mom!”

Even the secret she had kept for five years was revealed.

Han Tae-moo.

She had thought that she would be the only love of her life, but what she heard from her mother was a cold declaration of separation, that their one night together was a minor affair.

When they met again, he proposed marriage, saying that he would take responsibility, but she no longer trusted him.

It was a game he would lose anyway.

If she didn’t agree to the marriage, Jeong-hu would be taken away.

Han Tae-moo probably knew that this would eventually happen.

“Let’s get married. But there’s a condition. I don’t want you to expect any obligations as a wife.”

“What do you mean?”

“It’s exactly what it means. A show window couple, that’s the condition of marriage I want.”

Tae-moo raised his hand and stroked Ji-woo’s cheek with his thumb.

“What are you trying to do…!”

In an instant, he tilted his head and found her lips.

He lightly licked her lips and then let go, and before she could push them away, her lower lip was crushed in his mouth.

He barely parted his lips and grabbed Jiwoo’s chin, locking eyes with hers.

“I had forgotten, but now I remember. You still drive me crazy.”
