Fics like A beautiful cruelty

Maeda Riku was born into wealth, polished by power, and hardened by betrayal. When his father abandoned his mother for a poor woman, Riku learned to hate everything that reminded him of weakness especially the poor. Now twenty-six and living in Japan, he owns buildings, commands attention, and hides behind beauty sharp enough to wound. But beneath the luxury and arrogance lies a loneliness even gold cannot mask. When Riku returns to Korea with his younger brother, he steps back into a world of glittering social circles a world that worships money but starves for love. There, at the grand engagement party of his old friend Wonbin, he meets Kim Daeyoung a stoic CEO trapped in a loveless marriage with Yushi, the gentle man everyone looks down on. Daeyoung and Riku come from different kinds of silence: one built from duty, the other from pride. What begins as curiosity becomes an impossible pull a dangerous attraction that threatens to unravel reputations, marriages, and the careful order of their lives.
