Marry me instead

Ha Kyung, the sole heir to the prestigious Juwon Hotel empire, found her future mapped out in an arranged union. Just weeks before her official engagement ceremony, a shocking proposal arrived—not from her intended husband, but from his younger brother. He declared, “You cannot marry my brother. I will not allow it.” His words sent a cold shiver through her, awakening a deep-seated dread. It felt like history was repeating itself, echoing the first major act of defiance they had shared as reckless teenagers, and she sensed he was on the verge of an even greater rebellion that would irrevocably alter all their lives.
