Meeting, Not Pure

For five years, did you have fun without me? There was one thing my husband, Joo Taejun, said to me on our wedding day. “…Smile. You got what you wanted, so why the long face?” Our marriage, built on nothing but cold calculations and a contract, felt like an endless, dark tunnel. Then, at the end of that tunnel, like a ray of light, a child came into my life. But I had no choice but to run. There was no way my child could grow up safely in a household where treating people like objects was the norm. So, I left him with a lie—that I had found another man. Five years passed. And then— “Five years. Did you enjoy yourself?” The moment I heard his voice, my whole body froze. “You should’ve at least made the most of it with that bastard before I found you. But that won’t be an option anymore.” I forced my stiff body to turn—and there he was. “My turn now. This time, I’m never letting you go.” My exhusband. My first love. The man I once left behind.
