Lee Miyeon (Irene) was adopted as a child when her parents who were Korean immigrants died in an unfortunate accident. Her foster parents initially treated her kindly but  changed after they were able to conceive a child of their own. She was eventually sent abroad after a traumatic incident threatened the Lee Family's reputation in high society. Yet soon after, the family's business takes a turn for the worse and Miyeon is abandoned completely.

Now an adult, she returns to her home country and meets Lu Minzhe (Parker James), seemingly for the first time. The  handsome and successful CEO of a conglomerate does not hesitate in using shameless means to chase Miyeon once he realizes that his feelings toward her is love. However, happiness appears to be always a step away as Lu Minzhe also harbors some secrets that are tied to Miyeon's past. 

Meanwhile Jesse Evans, a strikingly attractive model and old college friend, unexpectedly confesses that he has been in love with Miyeon for the past 7 years. Jesse who came from a privileged background has spent the past few years working hard to be recognized by Miyeon as himself and not as the heir of the Evans Family.

As both men vie for her affection, the beautiful yet apathetic Miyeon learns love is a sweet and wonderful thing.

Get ready for a love story between an outwardly warm but cold & depressed protagonist and her outwardly cold but doting handsome male lead.

Thank you so much for those who have supported TLCHP thus far.

Beginning of next week, I will be posting a new novel called My Darling Alpha. It is a fantasy love story with vampires and werewolves.  Hopefully you can support my new endeavors.

THE LADY IS A COLD HEARTED PROTAGONIST

<p>Jesse's face reddened as laughter erupted at the table. All throughout dinner their friends continued to take jabs at the man yet he remained in an upbeat and jovial mood. </p>

<p>Miyeon couldn't help but shake her head and smile at her boyfriend. In return, Jesse shot her a shy smile as he began to cut up her meal, a very appetizing A5 kobe beef steak, on her behalf. Though Miyeon had insisted she was capable of doing such things on her own, she was very appreciative of Jesse's doting gestures. As she got to know this gentle giant more and more, Miyeon realized has never met a man more of a gentleman than Jesse. He opens doors for her, cooks for her, ensures she doesn't walk on the street side of the road, says please and thank you, the list goes on and on. She had initially thought Rich was quite chivalrous but now she was certain her friend didn't hold a candle to Jesse. </p>
