What was the mother planning by bringing this guy home? Was he supposed to be some useful tool to help her daughter succeed the company after her death or something? Maybe she wanted a father figure to shield her daughter from shady men or greedy relatives? Or did she think her daughter was lonely without a father?

But seriously, was it really necessary for her to sleep with a guy who’s basically the same age as her daughter? Especially when she knew her daughter used to toy with him when they were little and might even have feelings for him?

Maybe the mother knew the boy also liked her daughter and would stay loyal to her and support her in the future.

The mother is disgusting, honestly. And the ML is pathetic too, begging an older woman not to abandon him just to solve his debt problems. The least he could do is stay loyal to the woman who paid off his debts, but instead he develops feelings for the MC? And even acts on them? Ugh…

The smut is good though.

Anyway, I’m mostly here to figure out what that old hag—who’s sleeping with a man young enough to be her son—is actually planning. Does she have a terminal illness or something?
