"What kind of business partners would eat each other's lips hungrily?" --- Jessica thought her life was perfect. She thought she had a perfect husband. Good looking, good career, and good in bed, too. Until one day, her perception changed completely when she saw her husband kissing someone else. As if that wasn't bad enough, the person her husband was kissing was a man. She was hurt and disappointed, and she wanted to end things with her husband. Unfortunately, her husband was not only a philanderer but also a master blackmailer. No one knew what sins she committed in the past, but how she was forced to stay with her husband after everything that happened was like a punishment. Her life seemed to be in the grip of her husband, but who would have thought that she was slowly being strangled by a thread with one end held by her husband and the other end held by her husband's boyfriend? One slowly pulled the thread, and the other was reluctant to let go. Jessica was trapped by a thread that, slowly but surely, turned tangled. Unexpected pregnancy, unexpected deceptions, and no one would be able to guess the ending of this story. Would she be able to escape from the entanglement of the thread? Or maybe she would be trapped forever?

He had carefully noted down everything he needed, from flour, baking powder, milk, butter, and maple syrup. He didn't need to buy eggs, salt, and sugar because he had already made sure that he had those things in his kitchen, and that was why he just bought other things that were not available at home. When he read one of the old-fashioned pancake recipes he found on the internet, he breathed a sigh of relief because it didn't seem difficult to make. In fact, the ingredients needed were easy to find in supermarkets, therefore he immediately went to the nearest supermarket to buy those items. He went alone. Even after he told the woman he was sincere this time, Jessica still doubted him. When Jessica said that he had changed a lot in the past week, he almost said that what she said was nonsense, but when he thought about it agai
It had been a week since Noah lost his job at Button Boss and ended up becoming Jessica's assistant. On his first day of work as an assistant, the photo shoot models came from a top Korean boy group called P13R (read: PIER). It was said that the name meant “Thirteen for Perfection and Rarity.” The number 13 in the name meant there were thirteen members in the group, and all of them were handsome and talented. Lately, Korean groups were starting to spread their wings to the US, and P13R was one of them. Their second album entitled "13.13" managed to top the Billboard chart for weeks, this was because the song in the album titled "Many Money Man" also had the same success on that chart. That was the reason EntertainMEN invited them to appear in the next issue of the magazine. Other magazines in the country had invited them before, and that was why Karl was not to be outdone and chose to feature the handsome young men on the cover as well. That day, it was
They finally arrived at the studio on the third floor, and Jessica's sweat on her forehead was as big as grains of corn. She used the back of her hand to wipe it off her forehead, and then her blue eyes scanned the situation in the studio. Her team was all there doing their work, but the models hadn't arrived yet. When she glanced at her watch, she could see that there were still thirty minutes before schedule, and she assumed the models were still on their way. "What should I do now?" Suddenly, Noah asked her a question, and Jessica remembered that Tammy was no longer her assistant, and her husband was the one who replaced her. She also just remembered that she had not told him what he had to do, and that was why she carefully explained to him, “Tammy usually helps me monitor our team's preparations before the photo shoot starts. She will make sure whether everything is ready or not, and if other staff need her help, she will help them too.”
Unfortunately, Jessica couldn't stop thinking about what Tammy said to her today. A thief was definitely not a good person, and since the person who put that label on her was none other than her best friend, she felt even worse. She couldn't even rebuke what Tammy said to her. She couldn't defend herself, and her silence could perhaps be seen as a confession. It was very bad for her because she couldn't even get rid of the bad feeling in her heart even though Tammy didn't continue pushing her into a corner. Even when she was preparing herself for today's work, she still couldn't forget what the younger woman had said to her. “I heard there is a studio in the company building. Why don't we use that studio today?” Her chain of thought was broken by that question, and the one who had just asked it was none other than her husband. She blinked her blue eyes, and she realized that she was in the car driven by Noah. Noah was sitting behind the wheel
The Creative Department and Design Department were located in the west wing of the building, and they practically shared the spacious room even though a fairly large space existed between the two departments as a separator. The space was often called a lounge because there were several sofas along with tables and some snacks, and this was where employees usually gossiped about various things. No door or wall was separating the two departments, and that was why Jessica could reach Tammy's new work area in no time. In the Creative Department, Tammy's desk was in a corner that felt a bit dark and gloomy, but now her working site was near the center of her new department, and Jessica was quite satisfied with the arrangement. On the table was a card box filled with various items, and she knew that everything in the box belonged to Tammy. The younger woman must have just moved everything from her old desk to her new one, but she didn't have time to rearrange everything
"So, Noah will work as Jessica's assistant in the Creative Department, while Tammy will get a promotion as a new designer in the Design Department—ah, maybe it's quite surprising, but Tammy has been helping the Design Department in the last month when one of the designers there was on maternity leave, and surprisingly, she did a great job of impressing me. That is the reason why I decided to give her a new position in this company, and of course, her salary will also increase.” It was Karl who announced it after everyone in the Creative Department arrived at the company, including Jessica and Noah. When the two of them just entered the room, everyone's eyes fell on them. Sure enough, it wasn't natural for Noah to enter the building with his wife. In the past, the man would only drop his wife off in front of the building before saying goodbye, but the man never once entered the building. Questions were popping up in those people's heads, and it seemed li
It was Monday, which meant it was Noah's first day working for EntertainMEN. When he was still working at Button Boss, he usually looked neat in various types of suits when he went to work. That was because Button Boss was a big company, and professionalism was a must in that company. The situation was different with the magazine company. Everyone dressed casually at work, and even though Noah had stupidly dressed neatly this morning before leaving his apartment, he eventually listened to his wife's advice and changed into casual clothes. Instead of wearing a suit, he wore a white polo top, while his long legs were wrapped tightly in dark blue jeans. 'He actually looks better in casual clothes. He is more like a human and not a robot who only has ambition,' Jessica thought to herself when she saw her husband's appearance. In the past, her heart would always beat fast every time she saw her husband dressed like that, but today, she didn't feel anything e
'Why did I even say something like that to him? Why do I need to help him find a job?’ Jessica couldn't help but scold herself. Just to get Noah to eat breakfast, she needed to bribe the man like a child. However, the bribe worked because the man immediately agreed to eat this morning. It seemed like he was starving because he hadn't eaten since last night, and he looked like someone who hadn't eaten in years as the two of them sat across from each other at the dining table. Jessica even lost her appetite just by looking at the way her husband ate. It wasn't that she was full just by watching her husband eat, but she just didn't want to eat at all. That's why she didn't touch her breakfast at all and just stared at her husband flatly. Noah seemed uncomfortable with the stares, and he even stopped eating before asking his wife, “What's wrong? Why don't you eat your food?” “Nothing,” Jessica shook her head lazily while saying the answer. “I'm no
“Tell me what's wrong with you!” Firmly, Jessica forced the man to open his mouth instead of continuing to hide under the blanket. Right now, the blanket couldn't do anything to help him after Jessica mercilessly threw it on the floor, and Noah almost shrank under Jessica's sharp gaze. The brown-haired man couldn't hide anywhere, and he felt like the door was very far from his reach. Therefore, he could only let out a heavy sigh before bringing his body to sit on the bed. His back was against the headboard, and he didn't even look at the blonde woman. “I lost my job,” he said without looking at her. This time, it was Jessica who widened her blue eyes. "What?" She asked, unable to believe what she had just heard. “Are you talking about your work at Button Boss? But, how did you get fired? Didn't you just get a promotion even though you needed to be transferred to the Commercial Department?” Jessica almost couldn't believe what she had just hear
