David looked at his son, who didn't seem to have any appetite. Even the spoon in his hand didn't move at all. A sense of concern and sadness radiated from David's eyes toward his only son."Since Bianca died, he has changed a lot. His body became thinner, and the happy smile was never seen on his face again." David thought."What should I do to make him back to normal? What can I do to bring a smile back radiated in the face? My heart hurts so much to see him like a living corpse. I feel like I've lost my only son. I lost the spark in my life exactly in the second of my own eyes." David was still looking toward his only son, who sat stunned, and his gaze was empty."Sean?" David called his son, but Sean's ears didn't seem to hear what his father said. His eyes looked straight at the plate in front of him At the moment.David then took Sean's hand and patted it gently."Hey." David said in a soft tone to his son.David's eyes heated up. He felt like he couldn't help but cry seeing his
David looked flatly at his two subordinates, Don and Jackson, standing before him. The two men were tense when David summoned them suddenly to their main office. They glanced at each other while David just sat quietly in his chair. Heavy breathing could be heard from him. David slowly stood up from his chair and walked forward to Don and Jackson."You guys are probably trying to cover up what you did years ago, and you think that I wouldn't know about it.""I already know that Adele is dead, and her skull was found in the lake."Don and Jackson could only lower their heads, respectively. Cold sweat dripped from their foreheads. Their hearts were beating fast, and nervousness coursed through their bodies. There was only one thought, 'How could David know this? Meanwhile, when Adele was gone, he seemed indifferent and didn't want to look for her whereabouts.""What made you do that?" David touched his face closer to Don and Jackson, who bowed. They both could feel David's breath on thei
"Let me go, let me go.'' Anna kicked as hard as she could toward Richard's two subordinates who tried to force her into the car.But her efforts were in vain. Her small body certainly couldn't match the strength possessed by Richard's two subordinates."Shit." But Anna's kick hit one of them in the face and made the big man emit an aura of wanting to kill Anna."You little bitch." That man tried to pull Anna, who was already in the car and wanted to hit her, but his hand movement stopped when he heard Richard's voice behind him."Stop it." Said Richard in a cold tone. His two subordinates, who heard their Boss's voice behind their bodies, immediately walked away from Richard's car and bowed to Richard to pay respects to their Boss.Richard then got into his car, with Anna sitting next to him. His green eyes looked at Anna, who was scared. Richard could see that Anna's body was shaking, and her eyes were wet from crying. Richard then turned his gaze to Anna's bare feet, and he chuckled
After what David did to him, Jackson could barely feel his face. His whole face swelled up, and he felt a stinging pain all the time, which made Don take Jackson to the hospital, and he had to be treated there. David didn't respond when Don told him about Jackson's condition, which turned out to be worrying from what they imagined."Boss, I'm currently in the hospital with Jackson; he keeps complaining that his face hurts. I will accompany him for 2 or 3 days, Boss."''He's not dead, is he?''''No, Boss. He's-''''Good.''"Click."Don stared at the black screen of his cellphone, a sign David already disconnected his phone first, without saying anything. Don sighed and rubbed his head, which felt itchy like being surrounded by ants."Shit.""I didn't think he would react like this when he knew about Adele's death. Why was he angry at us for getting rid of that woman? I don't understand the way of his thinking." Don looked at the people passing by in the hallway hospital where he was. So
Anna povAppearance tonight, as usual, was filled with masher men who looked at me with hungry eyes. I'm just singing in this club, not selling myself. The dress I was wearing needed to be more open. But I enjoyed singing in the Holo club. Singing and making people feel good with my singing makes me feel important.As always, chairs in line at the front of the club are always full. Those masher guys looked at me with a naughty look. I glanced in the direction of the edge of the stage and saw one of Richard's subordinates showing a piece of paper that said"Boss says your lipstick is too red."I almost forgot the lyrics of the song I was singing as soon as I saw the writing on the paper."Damn. Apparently he asked his subordinates to supervise me in such a way."I'm trying not to look annoyed because I have read the writing, which was a message from Richard."I did not apply this lipstick too thick, did I?""But, does my lipstick really look too thick?""Damn it, I have to see in the d
Several days had passed since Sean last visited Holo, and it was also the last time he heard Anna sing at that club. When Sean arrives at his house from the Holo club, he realizes that he is enjoying the atmosphere of the Holo club and Anna's singing voice and that he hasn't had a drink that suits his taste in a long time. He has attended many clubs with his late wife, but none of the clubs has glasses that suit his tastes.Sean was enjoying his dinner with his father, David. The two ate dinner in silence, both preoccupied with their own thoughts. David is busy thinking about running his business in the dark world, and Sean is busy thinking about running the company he is holding now. And the raging boredom in Sean's mind made him want to refresh his mind by going out and having a drink. And the only place that came to his mind right now was the Holo."Are you done with your dinner?" David saw in the direction of Sean, who had stood up from his seat and was preparing to leave the dini
Jackson stretched out both of his arms and breathed the clean air of the Garden behind the hospital area. Beside him, there was Don, who was sitting relaxed."Today is my last day being treated at this hospital." Jackson took a seat next to Don. Don glanced at him. "So?""You idiot." Jackson chuckled as he patted the back of Don's head."Hey." Don held the back of his head, which Jackson patted."You are much smarter than me; how come you can't read the direction of my current conversation?"Don frowned."I mean, you should have gone to work by now and escort our Boss."Don avoided Jackson's gaze, who looked at him with a smile."If I go back right now to our Boss, do you think he will welcome me and treat me like nothing happened?" Don smiled.''Ah, you're right. I should have thought about that.""If I were there right now, maybe tomorrow, I'm the one you must treat at this hospital.''"If I go back to work with you, it will be much safer than me having to work there alone.""Why?
After Richard asked him to work with Anna to catch one of their customers who had run away, Chansu was more silent. Usually, Anna is assigned to ensnare customers who want to avoid payment to Richard however has been away from the task for quite some time and is only focusing on being a singer at the Holo. And this is her first debut after not doing this kind of task for a long time.Anna glanced at Chansu, who sat silently next to her."Hey, what's wrong?" Anna held Chansu's hand, which was above his thigh. Anna looked worried about Chansu's condition; the first time Anna stepped into Richard's residence, Chansu was a person who always acted normal to her. And seeing Chansu's sad state like this made Anna feel worried for him."Nothing." Chansu released Anna's grip on her hands."Are you sure?" Anna asks once again to Chansu. Because clearance if his face does not show that he is fine now."Hmm," Chansu just nodded his head."Is this because Richard scolded you?" Chansu didn't mind w
