Synopsis
If you’re going to smile at other men, why did you ask me to pretend to be your fiancé?
“I told you to take it off because I wanted to watch you undress. What am I supposed to do if you tell me not to look?”
His gaze was arrogant and leisurely. Beneath it lurked an obsession so intense it was almost unbearable.
Lee Ah-ryeon had spent her life acting like a loyal hound to her family, all because she was an illegitimate daughter.
Then Cha Do-hyun, the eldest son of Hayoung Group, barged rudely into her life.
“CEO Cha. It seems you haven’t investigated me thoroughly enough. I have no intention of abandoning my family. They may be the only family I have, but they’re still my family.”
“Does family mean people who refuse to treat you like a human being, using you whenever they need you before throwing you away?”
Do-hyun already knew every detail of Ah-ryeon’s circumstances.
“If you accept my proposal, I’ll give you the fair treatment and compensation you deserve.”
Setting down his champagne glass, he slowly approached her and whispered softly behind her back.
“I’ll cherish you very dearly. As long as you remain valuable to me.”
At that moment, she should never have let herself waver.
If only she had known that love would begin at his fingertips, and that she would lose everything in his grasp.
The price of love was far too cruel and devastating.
