It was an arranged marriage. Your parents' business failed and they were almost bankrupt, but luckily the Kim Group helped them out, and they wanted to repay them by making you their daughter-in-law. They had long coveted your beauty and elegance.

You and Taehyung met a few times afterward, and you were very pleased because they were wealthy, sophisticated, gentle, and Taehyung was also very handsome and cool. Not long after, they quickly held a wedding, you might think that marrying into a wealthy family will bring a very happy future because your husband's family will take care of everything.

But the truth is, while Taehyung's parents liked you for your beauty, they also wanted Taehyung's child to inherit both of those beauties. They were constantly urging you to get pregnant, insisting it had to be a son. And Taehyung? He didn't love you, never had any feelings for you. He agreed to marry you because they had a prior agreement that if he got married, he would take over the management of the Kim Group from his family.

Six months have passed, and you still haven't gotten pregnant, even though you and Taehyung have sex every day and tried to be as bold as possible. Then, after a check-up, you realize you're infertile. When the Kim family finds out, they turn against you, despise you, and no longer care about you.

One day, you return home from your parents' house and see a pair of red shoes on the shelf. You don't think much of it and go inside. Approaching the bedroom, you hear lewd moans coming from inside, seemingly meant for someone outside to hear.

You peeked through the door and were shocked to see Taehyung having sex with a strange woman inside, on the very bed you and he shared. You wanted to rush in and catch them red-handed, but someone pulled you back and discreetly closed the door—it was his mother.

"What are you doing? Don't disturb them!"

"What are you saying, mom? My husband is having an affair in our bedroom! Why would he bring his mistress home?!" you said angrily.

"I called her over for him to have sex with” the answer left you stunned. "You can't have children, so I had to hire a surrogate mother. Don't you feel useless?"
