That title sounds familiar to me too. I think it may also be available as a serial on GoodNovel. The number of chapters that have been released may vary between sites, so it’s worth checking out both to see how far along it is on each. The reading experience is very similar between the two sites, complete with daily check-in rewards and a system for earning coins.
You should look at the reviews of each platform for better translation, since I experienced that one of them had way better translation than the other. It’s a normal office romance with a lot of secrets, so if you like that kind of trope, you’ll definitely read it and get hooked no matter what.

Love the title of this book. Peak wish-fulfillment drama for these super specific OTT romance webnovels, usually first published on Chinese apps JianGuo or Changdu and (rarely) translated into English for sale on Amazon.
Your best bet would be to look for mobile apps that specifically translate these books and host them. Many of these novels are available through apps such as GoodNovel, NovelCat, and Megatron. Although these novels make for somewhat poor reading, the books are peak wish-fulfillment drama. The writing is mostly formulaic, but it makes for a decent read every now and then. The only problem is the monetization is brutal. The novels can be read by viewing ads, by paying for each novel individually, or by buying a subscription to read them all.

Many of the novels are available on YouTube, read by various channels over stock footage of places etc. These are often monetized so they aren’t completely free of ads, but the reader doesn’t charge for them directly. The reading is usually done in a flat, recorded voice, and while it’s great that the novels are available to listen to at all, they don’t usually have much in the way of actual performance.

I chose this for a mix of slapstick and second chances. It’s about a guy who dies from a drink he thought was poisoned by his awful boss, but instead was meant for him, and then gets to relive the moment and try to do things right. I have a partially translated version up on Scribble Hub for the first 12 chapters or so. A commenter there led me to this fan’s version of the novella up on his WordPress page, but beware, it’s very, very messy.
To read the raw translation (as it's often referred to) use your browser's translation tool. Some are better than others. Prepare to have your perception of words like "glass" changed occasionally (e.g. “tumbler of destiny”) and be happy to root for the underdog as he tries to outwit his evil boss while secretly hoping that the big boss gets what's coming to him.

Because this is a Radish story, my free reading experience is going to be somewhat fragmented. You can read the first batch of chapters immediately and then hit a paywall after that. You can then either buy coins to read more or wait 24 hours to get a free “key” to read one more chapter. I haven’t been able to find this book on any of the reputable free ebook sites (such as Project Gutenberg) or on library apps for your phone or tablet (such as Libby). There are aggregator blogs that post lists of “free novels” but these are generally spammy and contain links to download “free” novels that will fill your device with malware. It’s really frustrating but, in order to read this, you have to play along with the Radish system. Essentially it’s a free premiere of a serialized TV show and then you have to subscribe to keep watching.

I have checked a few of my normal haunts for this and it seems Yonder have it locked down tight. The best way to read this as a legal download would be to sign up for their in-app model and purchase a daily pass to read it. All other claims to download the full novel as a cheaper option are scams. The story is very hot right now, with two possessive twin anti-heroes, so I’d recommend signing up for the app for a bargainous binge read.

This is my own hack, but I can read chapters on both Webnovel and Tapas in a row. Since both Webnovel and Tapas have almost identical promotions for new users (i.e. free passes and free daily chapters) reading on both will effectively double the amount of free chapters you can read at the beginning. The only catch is that you need to keep track of your progress (since the chapter numbering might differ if the chapters are bundled in a different way) by either keeping track of it mentally or by writing it down in a note somewhere. It requires a bit of extra work, but it works.

Webtoon (comic & manga) and Tapas have very good dark modes built right into their apps. They are best known for their comic & manga, but also have a very large section of web novel, all read with vertically scrolling text. The apps are designed for long sessions of reading, so the dark themes are very integrated and comfortable to read with.
Both Webtoon and Tapas offer free-to-read content, some of which is even available with no ads at all. While many of the stories are comics or manga, there is also a large collection of ‘web novels’ which are free to read online. They are usually written to be read in vertical, one handed, sequences of text, perfect for late night reading on your mobile.

I have no idea what this title is. This is a super flooded genre and I bet many titles are gettin to sound the same after a while (like ‘The CEO’s Secret Wife’, ‘The CEO’s Contract Lover’, ‘The CEO’s Hidden Baby’, etc.). Oh wait… maybe the story gets more clear if you describe it to us? Maybe there’s some specific scene that you remember and that could be enough to help us identify the story (like a mistaken-identity-type-scene at a gala or a rainy shared-umbrella-type-scene and so on…)? Yes, the community is way better at recognizing stories by their typical tropes than by their (possibly changed for other platforms/translations) titles. And the details of the plot are way more unique than the story’s title which typically follows a pre-set formula for this genre.

Of course, there’s a lot of fun in comparing book to show. But unlike the very faithful first season of television, there are large and soon increasing deviations from the original text as the season goes on. To do this sort of comparison, you’d really need to read the whole, unedited text – something that a free sample would not be able to give you past the introductory setup.
The free sample is like the pilot episode of a show. If you like the pilot, you can then subscribe to the channel to watch the rest of the episodes. There is no way to stream an entire TV show for free on its official network (unless you have a subscription). Bookstores work in much the same way as TV networks – the free sample is your free trial, and then you go to the library or buy the book as a subscriber.
