Chapter 73 “Now that the evidence has come to light, there’s no turning back. Especially since His Grace the Grand Duke found it himself.” Delani’s voice, gentle yet firm, reached my ears. How did she get in here? Entry should be strictly prohibited. Did she bribe the servants again? Well, considering how long she’s lived here, bribing them would be a piece of cake for her. “Damn it, then how the hell…!” “I plan to persuade Axel.” “…What?” “The head of…-

Chapter 72 Dedrick and I sat across from each other, looking completely cleaned up, as if nothing had happened. “Now it’s time to deal with the mess we’ve made.” “I shouldn’t have…” “Hey! We agreed not to blame ourselves! I would have done the same if I were you. And besides, I’m really grateful to you, Didi!” “Mm…” Afraid of the reactions outside, neither of us had stepped out of the room yet. So before leaving, we were putting our heads together, trying to…

Chapter 71 Marilyn struggled to catch her breath, her fingers weakly tapping against his chin before falling limply. She smiled faintly, reassuring him. “I think… I can bear it.” Even as her breaths grew fainter, Marilyn smiled brightly—but it was clear how fragile she was. “So… don’t blame yourself too much. This isn’t your fault, Didi.” At her gentle comfort, Dedrick buried his face in her palm and sobbed. The guilt of failing to protect her strangled him. “I…

12. Showdown Taking a deep breath in and slowly letting it out, he grabbed the phone he had set down inside the locker. He then turned his body to face the man. "What did you just say? I didn't catch that properly." "I said Ju Ha-rin looks fucking hot. She's got the kind of face that drives guys crazy to play around with." Shin-woo smoothed out his expression, which was on the verge of crumpling into annoyance, returning it to a calm mask. Right. They said he was this kind of scumbag to begin…-

11. I'd Rather Have You Standing "Ha... Wow... What kind of... Argh, seriously..." He let out a string of meaningless, empty groans one after another. Then, realizing he was still pointing his finger straight up at the ceiling, he snapped his arm right back down. His tightly shut lips twitched. "'Well then, bye'... Give me a break." The image of the woman smiling brightly and vanishing like a ghost flashed across his mind. "Phew... This nightmare of a woman shows up in my dreams just to mess with…

10. I Have Even More Confidence! Did something happen? Shin-woo closely studied her small face, but the woman wore her usual calm and composed expression. "What could you possibly need to confirm that requires waking up someone who's asleep?" As he asked with a tone full of bewilderment, Ha-rin took a deep breath, her chest swelling as she inhaled. Shin-woo's eyes—which had been fixed on her face—dropped down to her body. Only then did he realize she was still wearing the neat suit she had been…

9. Is She Trying to Kill Me? What is wrong with me all of a sudden? Shin-woo narrowed his eyes at the sudden, out-of-nowhere reaction from his body. And it wasn't just his heart acting up. A wave of heat flared out of nowhere and spread through his veins to every inch of his body in an instant. A searing sensation scorched his entire frame, giving him the illusion that he was struggling for breath. He was clearly lying still, yet his body felt as spent as if he had just attempted thirty consecutive…

8. Their Own Lights The meeting with the club officials attended by Cha Shin-woo wrapped up in just thirty minutes. Shin-woo briefly greeted the staff, listened to a short breakdown of the training schedule leading up to the start of next season, and then took his leave, mentioning that he was going to say hello to the players currently training at the stadium. Ha-rin stayed behind in the meeting room to face the general manager and the head of club operations. "General Manager, I assume you heard from…

7. A Man's Last Shred of Pride "Nuna! Wow! What brings you here? Do you have a meeting?" Unable to hide his delight, Ji-hyuk's smile grew even wider and brighter. "Yes. I came for a meeting. But I told you not to call me Nuna." "Ah. Right. I was just so happy to see you that I forgot. Sorry about that." Replying with a playful wink, Ji-hyuk's eyes suddenly rounded in surprise. "Wait a second. If it's a meeting... did you—I mean, Director Ju—decide to take charge of a player on our team?" Ha-rin…

6. Words That Sting Deep Inside Hearing another incomprehensible remark, Dong-goo stared at the man in the rearview mirror. Shin-woo was glaring out the window with a look that clearly said he was unhappy about something. "Should I pull over and tell Director Ju to get in?" Noticing that Shin-woo’s eyes were locked on Ha-rin, Dong-goo asked. "No! Why? For what? She said she doesn't want to!" Firng back rebelliously, Shin-woo whipped his head in the opposite direction. This guy is thoroughly…
