OH MY ABSOLUTE GOODNESS, MY FLOWERS! 🚨 Maximum jealousy mode has officially been activated! TaeTae just left the Jeon Mansion, bought an elite wedding suit to fool Devorah, and immediately bumped into his incredibly hot, runway-model-tier old flame, Top! 🤤🔥

​The sheer audacity of that text message sent to Kookie?! Kookie is literally tracking his location right now, and that familiar voice at the end of the table?! Someone call the emergency services because a billionaire fistfight is about to explode! Drop your wildest theories below! 🌸✨

The Gucci Maneuver

​TaeTae’s POV

​I completely exited the grand perimeter of the Jeon Mansion without seeking Kookie’s legal husband permission or giving his circle a warning. My logical mind calculated that I would simply dial his smartphone line later in the afternoon once my boots safely crossed the threshold of my own sanctuary. After enduring that suffocating, needle-poking lecture from his biological mother, I honestly didn't possess a single clue as to what I should execute next.

​Was I realistically supposed to just source a luxury wedding suit for my own husband and quietly allow my man to marry that absolute trash Lisa?! Hell no! That toxic bitch is genuinely piercing straight through my last remaining nerves—I swear to the high-society heavens, I intensely desire to violently grab her hair and make her completely bald! That absolute, blood-sucking leech! 🤬👊💥

​As my private luxury vehicle was chauffeuring my frame back toward my family estate, I decided to take a calculated detour. I commanded the vehicle to halt directly in front of the elite flagship Gucci Store. My plan was to smoothly browse their formal collections, select an obscenely expensive executive suit, and have it immediately shipped directly to Mrs. Devorah Jeon’s desk. If I wanted to dismantle her corporate trap, I thoroughly needed to maintain a completely flawless, sweet impression with that terrifying matriarch.

​After successfully purchasing the high-fashion garments, I instructed my private driver to transport the wedding suits straight back to the Jeon Mansion. I decided to remain behind at the elite commercial district, dialing my older brother Jaebum's private line to come pick up my beautiful body.

The Addictive Scent

​Meanwhile, as I was casually roaming around the pristine corridors of the Gucci establishment, a highly specific, intoxicating aroma suddenly penetrated my senses. It was a profoundly rich, deeply masculine scent that felt somehow entirely addictive to inhale. The aroma felt monstrously familiar to my memories, but my brain was completely incapable of calculating where exactly I had inhaled it before, or whose elite body it was currently radiating from.

​Lost in the sensory maze of that addictive fragrance, I completely neglected to pay proper attention to the exact direction my heels were walking. And in a single, uncoordinated second of time... my body violently collided straight against someone else standing in the center of the store.
​The scent?

​It was the exact, undeniable aroma I had detected moments earlier—this towering stranger was the absolute, verified owner of that intoxicating fragrance. The moment my lenient eyes fluttered upward to process the collision, a massive, tall man boasting beautifully tanned skin was standing directly in front of my face. His facial features looked incredibly serious and rigid, looking as if at any given microsecond, he would ruthlessly beat my asset up with those bulging, high-caliber biceps! I honestly didn't know if my flawless frame would ever be capable of standing back up if those muscular arms decided to launch a heavy punch at my face! 🏋️‍♂️💀

​But it looked entirely like my natural-born instincts were completely wrong.

​The exact second his gaze locked onto my visual proportions, his serious expression instantly melted away into a devastatingly handsome, blinding smile.
​"TaeTae... it is genuinely you!" the giant man gasped out, his deep voice filled with pure, ecstatic disbelief. "Do your memories still remember my existence, huh?"
