Lee Beolgu leaned against the wall of his lavish room, the faint sound of laughter and clinking glasses echoing around him The walls were adorned with intricate Japanese decorations, and tatami mats covered the floor, adding to the room's elegance He exuded an air of confidence, a smirk playing at the corners of his lips as he surveyed the scene before him.

Seated on a cushion near the low table was his wife, the daughter of a notorious gang leader Despite the lavish lifestyle and opulent surroundings, her heart felt heavy Beolgu had made her life a living hell since their marriage, an arrangement that had been forced upon her by family ties and expectations.

Not a day went by without him hurling insults at her, reminding her of her place in his life He treated her like an afterthought, his behavior a constant reminder of the disdain he felt for her She was merely a pawn in a game of revenge he played against her family.

“Get me some more drinks woman” he called out, not even bothering to look her way The words stung and she clenched her fists, fighting the urge to lash out Instead, she complied, rising slowly and moving to the bar to refill his glass.

As she poured the drinks, the room filled with women, laughter, and the sounds of flirtation. Beolgu reveled in the attention, leaning back as a particularly bold woman approached him He wrapped an arm around her waist and pulled her in close, pressing a kiss to her cheek while his gaze lingered on his wife “You’re lucky I even let you stay here, you know,” he taunted, a cruel smile dancing on his lips.

The women giggled and crowded around him, vying for his attention She felt a wave of humiliation wash over her as she watched him indulge in their affections He would feed them with his own hands, treating them like cherished companions while she remained nothing more than a silent observer in her own home.

“Do you want to join us?” he asked mockingly, his voice dripping with sarcasm “Or are you too busy playing the maid?.”
