Yumin was forcibly adopted into her uncle’s family after hearing that her daughter would die young. Unaware that she was serving as a scapegoat for her twin cousins, she endured hellish days solely for the sake of her father, who was being held hostage. The year she turned twenty-five, she received orders to go on a blind date in place of her cousin. “They say I’m going to die because of the husband I married at twenty-five? Yumin will die in my place, right? Heh heh.” Just as she was gripped by fear—having accidentally overheard her cousin’s phone conversation and witnessing the extremely vicious nature of the man she met at the blind date—she encountered a senior from her college days who had showered her with excessive affection. The incredibly successful senior who was soon to inherit the Taehyun Group. “Senior… do you still like me?” “I told you. I’d go straight for you for the rest of my life.” “Then please marry me.” At this proposal thrown out for the sake of survival, the corners of the senior’s mouth curved dangerously upward. “Someone has disappeared and the road is cut off, so we can’t go straight.” “…….” “I’ll think about it if you agree to join the recovery efforts.” My senior’s demand to cheer me up for marriage—no, the recovery work—was quite racy and unconventional.
