In The Season That Resembles You
너를 닮은 계절에
Synopsis
To him, she had always been no more than a younger sister.
That day was no different—just another ordinary day.
A dinner for her birthday, with her nominal fiancé.
The only difference was that she had arrived after seeing yet another annoying scandal article about him.
“I’ve come up with something I want as a gift.”
Her face, masked to hide her true feelings, looked convincingly composed.
Luckily, he wouldn’t notice; if he didn’t figure it out, she hoped he would remain oblivious until the very end.
“So now that you’ve grown up, you’re asking for a gift?”
“Will you give it to me if I ask?”
“You have to, it’s me, Lee Ha-eun, personally asking.”
Jung-ho’s voice accepted readily, sounding surprisingly casual.
“What do you think you’re asking for?”
“Saying it like that is kind of scary.”
Meeting his gaze, free of even a hint of suspicion, Ha-eun barely managed a smile.
This was Ha-eun’s small revenge—a minor act of lingering attachment under the guise of revenge, before giving up her title as Cha Jung-ho’s fiancée.
“Hug me. Would it be okay, oppa, if my first time with another man?”
Ha-eun asked the question nonchalantly, staring quietly across the table. Slowly putting down his glass, Jung-ho’s expression turned cold, as if struck by some kind of shock.
