Extending his hand towards her, he flicked the top of her forehead. As a sharp pain went through her forehead, she was baffled at his audacity to do that when she was at an emotional moment.

This man was truly too cruel!

Due to him doing this, her impeccable acting was interrupted, and raising her line of sight, she glared at him.

"Aren't you being too dramatic? I merely questioned whether or not you want to break this off," he voiced out.

As she was about to argue with him, the realization that his words were right struck her. It did indeed appear that she overreacted and drew a huge conclusion from a mere question from him.

Then again, knowing how the Male Lead was, she couldn't be blamed for reaching into something like this. She knew that he wouldn't hold any remorse or try to hold her back if she wanted to break this off with him.

"Why would you even be asking me something like that? Do you think that I will be ever able to break my engagement with you?" she voiced out.

"If that's the case, then let's get married," he said.

Those words of his rendered her speechless, and she even doubted her sanity. Maybe she was hallucinating in that moment.

Although she intended to get the man to agree along with her, she hadn't expected for it to be that easy. It couldn't be this simple once it had Eunwoo involved.

Her widened eyes and parted lips showed how baffled she was. She wasn't even able to find the strength within her to make a response.

After a minute of processing the situation, she voiced out, "You do know that my feelings for you is not a joke. That's why, don't play with my heart by saying such words."

"Did I ever play with you?"

Those words of his managed to catch her off guard, and she was unable to come up with a response. He wasn't wrong with those words. That was the case until the Female Lead appeared.

"But this is marriage. It's a grand thing. How come you are agreeing so easily along with it? Don't you find it strange? Did you actually get convinced by my words?"

Creases appeared between both of his eyebrows, and he said, "You didn't mean those words of yours?"

Afraid that he will be taking back his words, she shook her head.

In this life of hers, she was determined to not think too much and go along with the flow. She wanted to see what life held for her if she went in that path

That's why, despite of Eunwoo's possible hidden motives behind it, she wasn't reluctant. For once, she wanted to gamble with her luck.

Although she was disgusted at the thought of hugging a man like Eunwoo, right then, it slipped her mind due to how excited she was. Hugging him tightly, she let out a squeal.

"Thank you!" she said.

The least thing she could do was express her gratitude.

After all, by doing this, she was stealing the sunshine from his life, and without Jihae, he might be single for eternity. Since she was responsible for his soon to arrive lonely life, she felt a little guilty and pity.

But since he had already gotten a happy ending in the novel, it was fair for him to not receive one now.

"Move back," he vocalised.

Those words from him instantly caused her to step back. Nonetheless, the wide smile on her face remained, and a shine was visible in those eyes of hers.

"Stop smiling like a fool," he expressed.

"Now that you agreed along with it, let's draw a contract for it, alright, so that you don't be dissatisfied? Since you are busy, I will get it done. Is there any clause you want to add?" she questioned.

Pressing his hand on the couch, he got up and said, "Sooner or later, both of us were bound to get married. It doesn't matter to me whether it's early or later. So, do whatever you want with it."

Seeing how unattached he was to it managed to anger her slightly. But on the second thought, she wasn't dissatisfied. This did mean that she had the freedom to do whatever she wanted.

"If you say that, I don't have much to add, but do remember that you can't cheat on me after marriage, alright? Even if you fall in love with someone, you can't betray me for the sake of her. And this marriage should go on for at least six months."

"As I have mentioned before, I won't fall for anyone."

After those words, he made his way over to his office, closing the door behind him. This was the first time she had seen someone so unconcerned about their marriage.

That nonchalant face of his did not sit well with her.

She would have understood if he was angry or frustrated, but the fact that he did not care just was too much!

Nonetheless, all the excitement made her forget something as insignificant as this while she fell back on the couch. A squeal escaped from her lips as she did this.

Giggles escaped from her mouth while she voiced out, "Now that things are under your control and going as you have planned, I am pretty sure that in a matter of no time, my ship will come true as well. You are a genius, Ryu Yoonmi."

While thoughts emerged in her mind on how enjoy such a special thing, sleep started to cloud her eyes, and it did not occur to her when she had fallen asleep. Soon enough, she had drifted to her dream lead in midst of her excitement.
