His Mother Paid Me $200K to Disappear. Five Years Later, She Walked Into MY Restaurant.

Описание: His mother paid $200,000 to make me disappear. She said my blood would contaminate her family. Five years later, I own the most talked-about restaurant in Seoul — and she just sat down at table nine.

Zara Mitchell was a 24-year-old line cook in love with Jihoon Kang when his mother slid an envelope across a cafe table and purchased her silence. Her mother was dying. She had no choice. She took the money, flew home, and let the man she loved believe she abandoned him.

Five years, one dead mother, one culinary championship, and one restaurant later, Zara discovers that the woman who erased her is now secretly funding her dream. So she does what any chef would do.

She sets the table. She plans the menu. And she turns dinner into a reckoning.

But when Jihoon walks through the door — the man she was paid to forget — revenge stops being clean. And a plate of bread pudding changes everything.

🔥 WHAT YOU'LL FEEL:
• A mother's cruelty disguised as protection
• Food used as a weapon and a love letter
• The moment he tastes the dish from their proposal night
• A confrontation that breaks three people open
• An ending that haunts — no clean victory, no easy answers


You love enemies-to-lovers, revenge served cold (literally), food as storytelling, messy family dynamics, and endings that sit in your chest for days. If you loved Beef (Netflix), The Bear, or any story where cooking is both armor and confession.
