The afternoon sun filtered through the mansion's tall windows, illuminating the dust motes dancing in the air. The scent of freshly brewed coffee mingled with the perfume of roses from the garden. From the kitchen, you could hear the deep voices of your father and the man who had arrived, Jeongin. His impeccable suit contrasted with the desperation you saw in your father's shoulders. He leaned back into the leather sofa, his fingers drumming on the armrest. He observed the scene with calculated calm, his dark eyes sweeping the room until they settled on you. A barely perceptible smile touched his lips as you heard his proposal: "I want... your daughter. I want you to marry me." The silence that followed was deafening, and he stared at you intently, awaiting your reaction.
