It’s only been two days since we arrived in Korea, but it already feels like I’ve been locked up in Denver’s massive condo for weeks. I couldn’t decide whether to be annoyed or just accept it for what it was.

First, he didn’t want me tagging along on his errands. Second, he left me in here—like what? A glorified plant sitter? Hello, I’m his secretary. Doesn’t he need help with anything? I’m not here to babysit his indoor plants!

“Ugh!” I groaned, flopping down onto the couch with a dramatic sigh. I rolled my eyes toward the ceiling, trying not to let the irritation take over, but it was no use—boredom was beginning to boil in my veins.

The silence was thick. I couldn’t even enjoy watching anything because I’d rather be outside exploring Korea. This was supposed to be a magical, snow-filled trip, and here I was stuck in a high-rise penthouse like some forgotten item of luggage.

Unable to take it anymore, I stood up with a frustrated huff and stormed to my room. Of course, we were still

  • Love Beyond Contact (English Version)   Chapter 45: Into My World

    ★ Denver’s POV ★When we arrived at the venue, I carefully pulled the car into the private parking space beneath the rooftop restaurant. It was one of those exclusive spots in Gangnam—minimalist architecture, glass everywhere, warm ambient lights glowing through the windows, and the kind of panoramic view of Seoul’s skyline you’d expect on the cover of a wedding magazine. Perfect setting for Hana’s wedding dinner.I stepped out first and walked over to the passenger side. I didn’t say a word—just extended my hand to her. She looked at me briefly before placing her hand in mine. Her grip was firm, but I could feel her nerves.She looked absolutely stunning tonight, but I could tell this environment was new to her. And I couldn’t blame her—she wasn’t used to these high-profile social events filled with executives, media people, and celebrities. This was my world… and for the first time, I was letting her step into it, not as my employee, but as my wife.As we approached the entrance tha

  • Love Beyond Contact (English Version)   Chapter 44: The Red Dress and Everything That Followed

    ★ Sienna’s POV ★I had just finished fixing the bed when a knock came at the door.“Sienna?” Denver’s voice floated from the hallway. “Can I come in?”I rolled my eyes even though he couldn’t see me. “Come in,” I replied, quickly fixing my oversized shirt and shorts. I looked nothing close to “dinner-ready.” I wasn’t even close to breakfast-ready. I looked like I belonged under a blanket, binge-watching shows—not attending some formal dinner.He stepped inside with two large paper bags in hand, both stamped with logos from a luxury boutique and a well-known makeup brand.“We have dinner tonight,” he announced, placing the bags on the bed with a soft smile. “It’s for Hana’s wedding planning. Formal setting. I had this picked out for you. I hope you like it.”My brows furrowed. “Wait—dinner? Tonight? And you’re telling me now?”“I didn’t want to pressure you earlier,” he said, calm as ever. “You were upset, and I didn’t want to push. But… I’d really like it if you came with me tonight.”

  • Love Beyond Contact (English Version)   Chapter 43: Warm Apologies and Spicy Tteokbokki

    ★ Sienna’s POV ★I had already gone through several episodes of a K-drama, yet I hadn’t understood a single thing. The subtitles were there, sure, but my brain wasn’t absorbing any of it. I just sat there, staring blankly at the screen, mindlessly stuffing chips into my mouth—chips that now tasted like cardboard, yet I kept chewing as if they’d suddenly taste better the more I ate.We had been in Korea for almost two days now, but it felt like nothing. I hadn’t been invited anywhere. I hadn’t even been asked if I wanted to join. Yes, I was technically just the secretary on paper. But wasn’t I also his wife?With a sigh, I reached for my phone resting beside me on the couch. One new message.DenverHave you eaten yet? How’s your day going? Sorry about today.“Wow. Texting me now, huh?” I muttered under my breath. “How thoughtful.” I rolled my eyes and tossed my phone back onto the sofa, refusing to even reply. Whatever. Let him deal with it.I focused my eyes back on the screen, still

  • Love Beyond Contact (English Version)   Chapter 42: The Space Between Silence

    ★ Sienna’s POV ★“We just arrived the other day. My husband’s here for a business trip,” I explained with a polite smile, wrapping my fingers tighter around the cup in front of me.“Oh, you’re married?” Jiro asked, clearly surprised. He slowed down for a moment as he adjusted the chair across from me.I wasn’t sure why, but his reaction made something twist quietly in my chest. Maybe it wasn’t even his question—it was the memory that came with it. Denver hadn’t texted me all day. Not even a simple “Have you eaten?” or “I’ll be late.” Nothing. Usually, he’d at least check in once. Today? Not even a seen message.“How long have you been married?” Jiro asked again, his tone light but curious.I paused. How long had we been married? It hadn’t even been a full year. Actually… it might only be a few months.“You okay?” he asked, pulling me out of my thoughts.“Yeah. Sorry. Something just crossed my mind,” I said quickly, forcing a smile that felt a little too practiced.“Hm. Alright.” His v

  • Love Beyond Contact (English Version)   Chapter 41: Snow, Silence, and Secrets

    ★ Denver’s POV ★"Is everything okay with the task I assigned?" I asked the fashion designer over the phone as I stepped out of the conference room, the glass door clicking quietly shut behind me."Yes, sir Denver. It will be finished within a day. I'll just send it over once it's done.""Good. I want both sets delivered tomorrow morning. No delays," I said firmly, then ended the call.I let out a quiet sigh through my nose and adjusted my tie, tightening it slightly as I walked down the corridor. The hallway was dim and quiet, except for the faint hum of conversation from distant rooms. Another meeting was done. Another decision made. Another long day, almost over.But despite the progress at work, my mind was anything but at ease.Sienna… she's alone in the condo.The thought hit me like a weight. We’d only been in Korea for two days, but already, I had barely spent any quality time with her. I hadn’t even taken her out to explore Seoul. She must be bored out of her mind… or worse,
