proximity restored

Everyone knows that the eldest young master of the Fu family is cold and noble, sinister and cunning. Few people know that he has loved a woman for over ten years and even has a child, making him a true hypocrite. Until one day, in front of the media and under the spotlight, he holds the woman firmly in his arms, tender and affectionate— "Marriage, children, the whole package. After so many years, you still refuse to take responsibility for me?"

Ha-yeon is a woman unlike any other—gorgeous, fearless, and shamelessly devoted to her own pleasures. While society whispers about morality and loyalty, she craves only two things: money and the intoxicating thrill of sex. Guilt never touches her heart; in her world, pleasure and wealth are the only truths worth chasing. Her husband, Hyun-woo, is a hardworking man, always buried in his office work. Though he provides her with stability, he is blind to her wild hunger and careless games. To Ha-yeon, marriage is just a safety net—never a boundary. She thrives in secret escapes, always chasing men with wealth, power, and the ability to shower her with gifts after a night of passion. The story unfolds like a forbidden journey through the city’s most luxurious spaces—five-star hotels, private lounges, grand mansions, penthouses, and secret suites. Everywhere she goes, Ha-yeon leaves behind broken rules and heated nights. Her encounters are varied and intoxicating: Strangers at high-end lounges, where she flirts, seduces, and lets herself be taken without hesitation. Men of power—investors, CEOs, and elites—each offering her more money, jewels, and luxury than the last. Ha-yeon’s life becomes a spiral of indulgence. She breaks expensive things without a second thought, demands gifts without shame, and uses her beauty like a weapon. Her body is her ticket to freedom, and she spends it recklessly, always hunting for the next thrill. Her husband Hyun-woo remains oblivious for much of the novel, trusting her loyalty while he slaves away at work. But shadows of her truth slowly begin to emerge—rumors, subtle slips, unexplained luxuries she cannot hide. Instead of fear, Ha-yeon only feels excitement at the risk of being caught. At the heart of it all, Ha-yeon is not a victim of lust but its ruler. She is bold, unapologetic, and utterly shameless. This is not a story of redemption or regret—it is a story of a woman who embraces her desires fully, who loves money more than morality, and who uses every man she meets as a stepping stone to luxury. The novel closes not with punishment, but with Ha-yeon standing tall in the shimmering glow of her indulgence—proof that she never needed love or faithfulness to survive. She needed only herself, her beauty, and her unquenchable hunger for wealth and sex.

When I was young, I lost half of my leg while saving Vernon. Later, because of that leg, I was bullied and lost my hearing. As soon as Vernon heard what had happened, he rushed back from thousands of miles away. His eyes were red, and he promised he'd take care of me for the rest of my life. But ten years later, the first thing I heard when my hearing returned was a question from one of Vernon’s friends. “Hey, man, Rosa or Ella— which one do you prefer?” Vernon chuckled lightly. “Obviously, Ella. Rosa’s missing half a leg. It's such a mood killer.” It was like he'd forgotten that Ella was the one responsible for me losing my hearing in the first place.
