Synopsis
The moment I met my favorite character from the novel in person, I completely lost all admiration for him.
Grand Duke Asad Uriel, the mastermind who opposes the Crown Prince in the original story, was famous for his breathtaking beauty—but aside from that, he was an insufferable jerk.
If only the original heroine’s younger sister became Empress, Mia’s life would be set for good.
After her identity as someone who had transmigrated into the novel was exposed, Mia became Asad’s secretary.
She did it all for one reason: to pave a smooth road to the Imperial Palace for her younger sister.
But things turned out to be far more difficult than she expected.
Working herself to exhaustion from dawn until late at night became routine, and on top of that, she repeatedly found herself targeted by the Grand Duke’s enemies.
“Does the secretary have poor comprehension skills? Do I really have to explain even that…? Sigh.“
More than anything else, Mia had to endure the constant insults from Asad, whose personality had somehow been patched into that of the stereotypical overbearing Korean boss.
Just you wait. Once I become the Empress’s older sister, I’ll make sure you regret treating me like this.
Then, one day…
“I’ll take responsibility.”
…What did he just say?
Before Mia could even process his words, his large hand gently wrapped around the back of her neck.
His stunningly handsome face filled her entire field of vision.
“Then I don’t have to hold myself back anymore.”
Unable to stop herself, Mia squeezed her eyes shut.
Seeing her reaction, Asad smiled softly.
“Are you nervous?”
He whispered in a low voice beside her ear.
“The part where I really have to take responsibility… starts now.”
…
Somehow, it seemed her boss had completely lost his mind.
