Chapter 148: Kim Chun-Ae

I couldn't believe that bitch came back to seduce my man again after all these years! I thought I expressed myself to her well in the palace that Inspector Nam was happy with me and she should never return unless she knew what was good for her! Just the thought of her alone with my husband made me destroy everything I had just bought from the market in fury.

I screamed in frustration as blood started dripping down my clothes. I then ran to the mirror to fix myself up, smiling, and telling myself that I was finally his wife. He treated me well, in fact, he couldn't stay away from me at night...even if it was...intense...and he would always moan her name even in his sleep...

I just shook my head. I was still his woman, despite his stupid partnership notion He loved me so much he showed it to me when she wasn't hovering over him...I just had to be patient and dutiful and give him time to forget the tramp that seduced him and then broke his heart. If I could just be patient I knew he would see me again and love me like he could if he was given a real chance to...all I had to do was give him a helping hand, to remind him what a bitch she could be who could leave him at any time...

My mind went back to the time when she finally left his home after she got his father arrested. I thought that would finally open his eyes and instead he just got drunk and high barely three hours after she abandoned him! He was barely resuming his duties and the king himself had to send his men to drag him back into service a few times. If it was not for his father introducing me to my future man, how could he become the man he was today? His father's association got him everything he wanted including this bloodline reinstated. I devoted myself to him, making sure he didn't go without food and shelter. I helped him get the battles he fought in, I helped him to regain his reputation without his father and I attained him a first son. I stayed by his side night and day in bad weather and when we were almost starving. So when did he write these letters to her? And even sponsored her? I got up in a rage and intended to set everything n fire but before I could do anything, my so-called husband had cornered me with a dark look on his face "get out of her room before I have you whipped for disobeying my orders. And don't even think of touching anything of her's with those filthy hands of yours...including me." He just walked off before I could say anything in return. I collapsed in anger and he had the servants take me back to my wing without even looking at me.

He ignored me as usual; he went about life with his precious wife as if they had the world in their palms. As he kept achieving political achievements my memories wondered back to the time when I used all of my first earnings to buy him the first militia book I saw in the market stalls. At the time his father indeed treated him poorly, but it was only to build him up into the man he was today; he wouldn't have been able to be the man he was without him! And that lowbrow girl; what the hell did she know about politics? I always sent the servants to sabotage every meeting they had in their home but she would always catch them out. And Seon-Ho had banned me from leaving the mansion so I couldn't even work! Whilst he got to eat and work with Yeon until her belly was too swollen! If only I had known earlier that she was pregnant I could have easily done something to prevent it, but she had Seon-Ho guard her even more so than usual. In fact he kept her locked up when he wasn't in the home in case any misfortune befell her. Those whores from Ihwaru visited her when they could and actually had the audacity to make themselves at home like they owned the place! They even barged into my room whenever they wanted and started acting up as if the didn't know their place! Even if Hwa-Wol's husband became a well-known psychic and Hui-Jee's husband was the right-hand man of the most feared Prince they were not better than me! My husband...soon-to-be husband was an army general with the power to control the nation. I just had to make that bitch go.
