Hmmm loll I just went back and reread it and I guess maybe yes?????
Some spoilers
Appartently the prev partner is married but from arranged marriage so there’s no mutual relationship between them only his wife unrequited love(?) toward him. Actually idk if it’s love or that she just think he’s the “best” partner with his position and background etc. wait the wife also had a child I think when she married him but that child is not his and people know about it so ig she married him since they have no relationship and he also doesn’t care whether that is someone else’s child.....anyways in some sense mc is the third wheel in the marriage aspect??? sighsss
Ik the wife knows about his relationship w mc but I forgot when does she knows also At time when when he’s in relationship w mc he was filing divorce since he already found someone he likes and I think the wife(her family pretty powerful too) knows about mc

So there's 2 semes and the uke dated one before and while they were dating the seme was getting divorced (or not but ita not super important) but now the uke is dating the main seme and and some point he disappears and the uke gets back with the first seme?or meets up with him? I'm confused cause you refer to a "prev partner" which im assuming his his previous seme? So the "cheating" would be the time when the previous seme was still technically married? Or is there only one seme and he's the one who is leaving his wife while dating uke?

No, sorry I confused you. The ‘cheating’ they mentioned was on the legal wife.
What happens is that the uke and the first seme are partners in the beginning, while the first seme was still legally married to his wife. The uke didn’t know that because it’s a whole life circumstance of the seme’s that the seme knew he had to deal with sooner or later by himself because he couldn’t get the uke caught up in it so he never told the uke about it, and was prepared to detach (;-;) and go alone.
He disappears. Not because he was fooling his wife and just easily walks back to her, but because of this whole circumstance for which he just had to return and (;-;) had to stay.
So on his disappearance, the uke gets together with the second seme. That’s not ‘cheating’ either.

Hmm let’s refer seme 1 as boss since it’s reveal pretty early on like c2 or smth his boss is his lover/partner but I don’t think any of the co-worker like officially know since they never officially announced their relationship to them. Mc met boss back when Mc was studying abroad in US and boss was “sponsoring” him and paying his tuitions. Why he did that I forgot anyways that’s when they slowly developed feelings for each other (boss was already married then and mc know but he also knows I think there’s no mutual feeling in that marriage) and mc accompanied boss during boss’s most depressed state(when he found out his mother was murdered). Boss did rejected mc and his own feeling since he’s like 12ish years older than mc but mc persist so they are together and followed boss to this low-performance company.
The wife knows about boss and mc and she doesn’t really interfere. And about this wife hmm it’s hard for me to say she doesn’t care about boss/her husband bc when she showed up into the story and expresses she doesn’t want to divorce w boss anymore as boss was being pressured by his family and threatened and under his enemy’s watch, she expresses that he should break it off w mc and only then will his revenge for his mother succeed as she will also do her upmost best to help him w her background. If he insist on divorcing her(as he doesn’t want the wife and her son to also get dragged into any further w his power struggle) and take revenge by himself, mc will be put into danger as she herself will also become boss greatest enemy. And in fact she did use mc’s safety to threaten boss and did have someone kidnapped and drugged(sleeping drug) mc but she didn’t go too far as all she did was kidnapped him and drugged him asleep for a car ride before returning mc back as a way to show she’s capable of harming mc and this is only a warning. After mc’s kidnapped incident, boss broke it off w mc so that mc doesn’t get dragged into his mess and power struggle anymore as it’s the safest way for mc. While I think since boss decide to compromise, the wife send also people to protect mc since if mc is dragged in then their compromise losses it point etc.

Ah I only talk about seme 1 and his wife and realize I spoiled quite a bit and very long loll if u want more rambling spoiler then sure gladly service you~
Anyways seme2 our ML the officially ultimate seme/ML
He’s a new employee(that got fired/ or maybe he quit? a very high-performance company just a very well known company for whatever reason and was scouted(?) by the boss to come work at his low-performance company(boss purposely didn’t expand the small company to avoid go under his enemy and his half-brother radar)
Oh yea boss is an illegitimate child which is y it’s much harder for him to get the company asset and get his revenge so his marriage w the wife is actually a chess that gives him more a little more advantage tho not a lot as compared to fighting w nothing. His half-brothers are his enemy and idk if there’s other enemy beside them but anyways.
I’m just going to refer seme2 and ML
seme 1 still as boss
ML got hired into boss’s company in the beginning of the story so while mc and boss were in a relationship ML was just there trying to underrsanding the company and in the process of becoming friends w mc and other co-workers. He also was like a relation counselor to the mc and friend w mc. ML found out boss and mc were in relationship and when boss broke it off w mc, boss asked ML for help to get mc to forget blame boss and forget about boss. Boss didn’t tell mc y he want to break up w him and just gave a “I have a change of heart” excuse so mc won’t have to feel guilty or anything and just have to blame him. And the reason boss asked ml for help is bc ml also founded out mc’s “kidnapped” incident was actually targeting and warning boss so that’s y boss asked him for help.
So yes ml came to mc and was like “you shouldn’t have gone for a married man w a child that entering junior high” but that shocked mc instead because he never knew boss had a child (tho ml concealed the fact that child isn’t biological but it will work in their favor to have mc to move one and give up on boss). So ml continued as said “since boss never even told u about that child it means boss doesn’t care about u since u don’t even know him that well” (yes ml bullshting right here and ml knows that he’s bullshiting but he’s trying to get mc to give up on boss on the prefix that boss already has a child and he’s playing with u so can u just give up)
My question when reading was how does mc not know about the child???
Any cheating? Dont want something like what happened in totally captivated.... just can't handle that angst today
