    • TO 65 🎀

      TO 65 🎀 Cover
      by Ruby — Chapter 65 How long had she been driving? Before she knew it, the scenery around Seo-ah had turned entirely white. Snowflakes began to scatter across the road winding alongside the valley. The ravine was already piled high with white mounds from previous snowfalls, making the whole place feel strangely disconnected from reality—even though it was barely an hour away from the city center. But distance didn't matter. Taehyuk had isolated himself deep inside this valley. Just thinking about the mindset…
    • TO 64 🎀

      TO 64 🎀 Cover
      by Ruby — Chapter 64 Jin-won straightened his back. "I want to drop the charges." "What...? Are you..." "Is that possible?" When Seo-ah—the victim herself—stated that she didn't want any punishment, Go-eun and Seung-hee were released from the police station right away. But Seung-hee vanished like the wind shortly after, and Go-eun's family went completely bankrupt, leaving behind nothing but mountain-high debts. According to Jin-soo, Go-eun was buried so deep in debt that she actually begged to be sent to…
    • TO 63 🎀

      TO 63 🎀 Cover
      by Ruby — Chapter 63 Seung-hee couldn't bring herself to answer Taehyuk. It wasn't a matter of pride. In a single second, the illusions she had clung to for so long were stripped away, leaving her speechlessly stunned by the sudden shock. She had simply hated Seo-ah. Seung-hee had actively searched for reasons to dislike and resent her—that was the only dynamic between a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law she had ever known. To her, a daughter-in-law was meant to be a blameless sinner in front of her…
    • TO 62 🎀

      TO 62 🎀 Cover
      by Ruby — Chapter 62 Even though she had brought him inside just to avoid the neighbors' prying eyes, facing him in such an enclosed space made it hard for Seo-ah to breathe. It was especially suffocating seeing Taehyuk's gaze linger on the exact spot where they had shared a kiss before. "I-I'll get you some... coffee." The words slipped out before she could stop herself, and a faint smile touched Taehyuk's lips. "I'd appreciate that." Seo-ah immediately regretted it, but under the light, Taehyuk's face looked…
    • TO 61 🎀

      TO 61 🎀 Cover
      by Ruby — Chapter 61 Taehyuk fell completely silent. —I lived my entire life for you. But... the way you look at me now... you look so sad. I just can't bear the thought that my own broken self made you this unhappy. "Ha..." Taehyuk ran a heavy hand back through his hair. “If you drag Seo-ah back to you using nothing but your own desires, she’s going to rot away in the end, too.” Right after his mother's words, Su-bin flashed through his mind—the little girl for whom Seo-ah was the absolute center of…
    • TO 60 🎀

      TO 60 🎀 Cover
      by Ruby — Chapter 60 "W-what..." The woman glared viciously at Seo-ah. "She ran off after stealing my money, and now she's dead! My money!" "Ha..." Seo-ah swayed on her feet. Young-ran's end was so fittingly her. Before Seo-ah could collapse from the sheer shame and heartbreak, Taehyuk rushed over and caught her in his arms. Held tightly against his chest, Seo-ah lost consciousness, hot tears streaming down the corners of her eyes. Seo-ah couldn't clearly remember what happened after that. A mob of creditors…
    • TO 6

      TO 6 Cover
      by Ruby — Chapter 6 Taehyuk’s eyes narrowed. The text had been sent around the time he was in his meeting—late at night, long after the flower shop’s delivery window would have closed. For no clear reason, an urgent restlessness took hold of him. “Didn't you say you sent the flowers today?” “Yes, sir. I did. I even received a photo confirming the delivery.” “Were there... roses?” At Taehyuk’s question, the secretary flusteredly pulled out his phone. “Never mind.” Taehyuk raised his…
    • TO 59 🎀

      TO 59 🎀 Cover
      by Ruby — Chapter 59 Seo-ah turned back toward him, her voice crystal clear and radiating a sub-zero chill. He hadn't moved an inch. "No." "Would you actually listen to me if I got down on my knees?" His words made Seo-ah's eyes quiver in disbelief. This man... kneeling in front of me? His tall frame, his crisp, immaculate appearance, the disciplined yet graceful air of a trained soldier, and those dark eyes locking squarely onto hers—she hated all of it. She hated the idea of him showing weakness in front of…
    • TO 58 🎀

      TO 58 🎀 Cover
      by Ruby — Chapter 58 "Ah..." Seo-ah clamped both hands over her mouth. Even though Su-bin had fallen asleep after taking her medicine—and usually slept so soundly that you could carry her off on your back without her noticing—you never knew. Seo-ah clenched her jaw until her teeth ached, terrified that a single moan might slip out. Yet Taehyuk, who was sending wild, crashing waves through her body, didn't seem to care about her predicament at all. Seo-ah lifted her head weakly. His lips were trailing up from…
    • TO 57 🎀

      TO 57 🎀 Cover
      by Ruby — Chapter 57 "What are you talking about?" Taehyuk's brows furrowed tightly. "Forget it. It's none of my business anyway. Just go ahead and marry her. You can always have another child with her. So please..." "I asked you what you mean by that. Who on earth am I supposed to be marrying?" Taehyuk grabbed her by the shoulders, his eyes searching hers as her gaze flickered in confusion. "I heard you were marrying Jung Go-eun..." "Are you insane? Me? Leaving you and Su-bin behind?" Seo-ah bit her lip and…
