Yeo-reum, who has become a burden to her family after losing her usefulness, goes on blind dates to fulfill what she believes is her final duty. She hopes that if she succeeds in one, her family might finally acknowledge her—even just a little. But even as the dates continue, their indifference never changes.
“Hey, sweetheart, I don’t really like it when people lie to me.”
“…Excuse me?”
The one who wiped away Yeo-reum’s tears was Kwon Sun-jae.
“Why were you crying?”
It was the first time. The first time anyone had ever asked her why she was crying. But why did it have to be Kwon Sun-jae of all people?
“…It’s none of your concern, Director.”
At that, Sun-jae stared at her with sharp eyes, then slowly bent down. He brought his lips close to her ear. Startled, Yeo-reum trembled.
“Ah…!”
“Then again, why should I care about something like that?”
Yeo-reum’s slender, pale neck gradually flushed red.
“There’s no need for useless feelings like affection between us, right?”
