Unfit Husband 부적격 남편 by 레드그리타




Synopsis:



A call from an unusual client came to the divorce lawyer's office, where only flies flew.

"Um... I want a divorce...."

The client sounded utterly lacking in assertiveness or drive, making the divorce lawsuit seem uncertain, but Chae-ah somehow couldn't abandon this case.

While preparing for the divorce with the client of many distressing stories, the two were involved in a major accident. When Chae-ah woke up in the hospital, she had become Kwon Su-ryeon, the woman who entrusted her with the case.

And then.

"Now that I've confirmed you're not dead, I should return to the company."

She had heard the stories, but the husband was truly unqualified.

There was no hope for reform, and that was the moment she resolved to get a divorce, as per her client's wish.

"No. Can you kiss me? How can you have a baby with someone you can't even kiss? That's ridiculous."

Looking at the ceiling while lying down, the brilliantly sparkling crystal chandelier was blinding. Chae-ah covered her eyes with one hand and let out a deep sigh. Even as her head spun, that thought remained unchanged.

It's truly ridiculous, Mr. Ha Seon-woo.

I'm not Kwon Su-ryeon either.

"What's the big deal? Just do it."

Along with his cold reply, she heard the rustle of clothes near her ear.

"How can we?"

Chae-ah shook her head again. I can't.

"You may not be able to, but I can."

Just as his voice sounded closer, his solid thigh pressed against her, pushing her knees apart. The decreased distance brought a rush of Ha Seon-woo's heavy scent. As she wondered about the scent so close and tried to look forward.

"If we have to do it, we'll do it. Whether it's a kiss or sex."

His cool lips unexpectedly broke through the gap of Chae-ah's lips.
