That Night, Without Permission
허락도 없이 그날 밤
Synopsis
“I’d like to extend the contract.”
It was the exact day their two-year contract marriage came to an end. The fake couple, whose agreed-upon term had expired, began negotiations.
Seung-hyun wanted to extend the contract, but Yeo-won had a different perspective.
“I’m sorry, but I’d like to end things here.”
“Why?”
“I want to live like a human being.”
At home, something unimaginable—even in his wildest dreams—was happening to Seung-hyun.
His mother-in-law would show up unannounced, shoving pregnancy tests in Yeo-won’s face, and dragging her to suspicious infertility clinics, tormenting her endlessly.
“What’s bothering you? Tell me what you want.”
“If we’re going to extend this marriage… let’s have a child.”
Seung-hyun let out a bitter laugh, utterly incredulous.
“What kind of f*cked-up request is that? Are you out of your mind?”
“That’s all I want.”
If she were to stay by Seung-hyun’s side and endure this marriage, she needed a child. It was absolutely essential.
