The male lead is a truly insane and possessive yandere, driven by obsessive love. He forcibly takes the female lead, a gentle and refined young lady from a wealthy family. The male lead tricks her into getting pregnant, using the child to force her to stay with him and marry him. He approaches the female lead with the intention of using her, resorting to any means necessary. He orchestrates her pregnancy in the first chapter, systematically forcing her into marriage, and then forcibly takes her into a marriage of convenience. They have a child, but their relationship is strained (because the female lead was forcibly taken). After marriage, the male lead uses the child to keep the female lead from divorcing him. In short, the male lead is a truly awful person, genuinely insane and extremely possessive. The female lead suffers greatly, as does the male lead later on. Therefore, the female lead develops a complex mix of love and hate towards the male lead towards the end. (See the synopsis for the angst.)

    This year's absolute top-tier contemporary romance novel! The author's writing is superb, the business battles are thrilling, and the emotions are delicately portrayed. It's not a typical "feel-good" novel, but it's genuinely enjoyable. Not suitable for younger readers; it's best suited for seasoned readers with some life experience and refined taste. There are currently no substitutes. If anyone has a book of this caliber, please recommend it to me. The male and female leads must be genuinely strong; forget about rebirth systems, I want truly powerful characters.

    That has to be this one! It's a pseudo-uncle-niece forced love story. The male lead is a Southeast Asian mafia boss who's both lecherous and wicked, while the female lead is delicate and sweet but not a submissive, love-obsessed, or naive type. It's really good!
