Chapter 11 .... Elena quickly tied up her long, thick hair with the rabbit-shaped ribbon hair tie. It suited her perfectly. She tried her absolute best not to look toward Alexander, who since earlier had refused to take his eyes off her. That only made Elena grow more nervous. Carefully, almost stiffly, she began eating the delicious food placed in front of her. But all that nervousness vanished the moment she tasted it. “Waaah… this is so good…” She whispered to herself, and as if she had forgotten her husband’s presence entirely, she began eating eagerly. Alexander seemed to enjoy watching Elena eat. He folded his arms and stared at his wife intently. His eyes were sharp. Perhaps he did not even realize that he was staring at Elena with open interest, without the

 Chapter 13  --- Elena let out a deep breath. The brief happiness she had felt because her husband had been treating her kindly lately had made her forget about her unhappy marriage. "For a moment I forgot that he doesn't want me. Just a little kindness from him was enough to make me this happy." "I'm afraid my heart will shatter even more if I let myself fall deeper..." "For some reason he feels farther and farther away. He stands close to me, yet he feels distant—like a magnificent mountain that appears near but is actually far beyond reach." Elena fell silent for a moment. She looked out through the car window where her husband stood proudly. His expression looked cold, and his handsome appearance was undeniably captivating. She looked at him with a bitter gaze. That man was her husband, yet she had neve

Chapter 15  ... At the same time, in the small forest, “What are you doing? Why are you here?” “Leave before I scream!” Elena shouted, gathering all the strength she had left. Her breathing grew tight, and her body trembled violently. She tried to move backward by dragging her feet. She had fallen to the ground, and somehow she no longer had the strength to stand up. “Hmmm?” Greg frowned slightly, then looked down at the letter that had been delivered to him earlier. “You were the one who gave me this letter. You asked me to meet you in this forest, so why are you pretending to be ignorant now?” “Stop acting. You wanted to have some fun here, didn’t you?” Greg whispered, and his

Chapter 17  .... Amid the heavy rain pouring down outside, Alexander walked quickly toward the cold little room behind the mansion. He didn’t care that the rain was soaking him again. The only thing he wanted now was to bring Elena out of that place. “Haaah!” Breathing heavily, he pushed the door open. He hadn’t yet ordered the servants to turn on the electricity in this room, so the cold darkness immediately wrapped around him. From time to time, lightning flashed outside, briefly illuminating the room. And as he stood there... He finally saw what he had done, he hadn’t realized that he had dragged Elena’s hand so roughly earlier. She must have fallen, she must have been hurt. His eyes moved to her hands and legs, the wounds we

Chapter 19--- “I don’t need to feel awkward! This is my house. I’m the one in charge here!” “Yeah, that’s right. What’s there to be awkward about?” Alexander grumbled to himself. He stood silently for a moment in front of the door to the room he had assigned to Elena. Then, gathering his confidence, he straightened his still-damp hair and pushed the door open firmly. When he stepped inside the room with absolute confidence, he froze again the moment his eyes met Elena’s. She was sitting on the bed, quietly looking toward him. Alexander frowned slightly, as if resisting the desire that kept flaring up every time he saw this woman. He didn’t know what was happening to him, but he found himself losing control more and more whenever he looked into those b
