Chatting idly with friends over drinks, he said, “I’m just grinding down her temper. After some time, she’ll come back on her own.”
Later, eyes bloodshot from drunkenness, he begged her to remarry him. But on the other end of the phone was another man: “My wife just went out to buy deer antlers for me. Did Master Yu need something? I can pass along a message.”
That day, Yusheng nearly died from those words.
His wife’s seven years of love were stolen by Yusheng. No matter – if he could steal it once, he could snatch it back again.
He turned around and took over leadership of the Yu family in a high-profile move, armed with tremendous power and authority. Grabbing the man’s collar, he said, “Either give her up or die. No one can oppose the Yu family.”
The man laughed softly, answering with just four words: “The insignificant Yu family…”

Jeong Ijun, the second grandson of Chairman Jeong of Baekya Food, the 16th-generation descendant of the Seorae family.
And Kim Siyeon, who had spent 25 years as the fiancée of Jeong Gwi-hyeon, Chairman Jeong’s eldest grandson.

“I’m glad you understand.”
“You’re basically telling me how could a woman who had always been with the older brother end up marrying the younger brother instead.”
His gaze, which had been fixed on the coffee cup, slowly lifted.
“Exactly.”
It was a neatly delivered response.
