Romance

Hong Heeju is a sign language interpreter who has become mute due to severe depression.
    For three years of their arranged marriage, she and her husband never exchanged a single conversation.
    One day, her life takes a harrowing turn when she’s taken hostage.
    ‘Don’t hang up! This isn’t a phishing call…!’
    However, her husband, who was even worse than a stranger, coldly disconnected the call.
    – “Call me when a body is found.”
    ***
    You $%#£! He’s such a jerk!
    Overwhelmed with anger, Heeju decides to threaten her husband anonymously.
    The problem is that he was a well-known spokesperson for the Blue House.
    – “Can’t you send threats on time?”
    “That…”
    – “Here I’m anxiously waiting for my blackmailer’s call.”
    “What do you…”
    – “Are you playing around with someone else besides me?”
    “…?”
    Wait, is this the same sociopath husband I knew?
