Jill was thrown at the corner by the muscular man who separated her from Eugene. She stumbled on the ground and the hands she used to support her weight went sore. The rush of energy gave her tingling sensation in her small fingers and legs. She had feeling that her heartbeat is in her head, making her dizzy. What added her fear is because her eyes were still covered. It’s not the darkness itself that’s frightening. It’s the fear of what darkness masks. The dark left her vulnerable and expose, unable to spot the threats that was lurking nearby. It means danger and taking precautions to stay safe for Jill. ‘Stay safe? Is it possible that we can make it alive?’ Jill had her doubts. If there’s no rescue to come, it won’t be long for Eugene and Jill to die in the remote place where people usually don’t take. Still, Jill believed to her parents. ‘But father and mother will save us. They will come.’ All of a sudden, her blind fold was taken from her eyes. She started to adapt to the
When gunshots were heard outside the warehouse, Kelly and her men sensed the need of fleeing right at this moment.“Ma’am, we need to run as soon as possible,” one reported. “The HongYoonChoi’s leaders are here. We can’t make it alive if we stay.”Expecting the aid that was about to come, Kelly decided to leave the place and retreat. Her job is not yet done. But soon, in the future, she’ll make it sure to finish what she has started.She looked behind at the little girl who stabbed her own mother while she’s under the influence of the drug. Next to the kid is the wounded Freea and the little boy who’s staring at Kelly straight into her eyes.‘The eyes of the HongYoonChoi leader,’ Kelly said to herself while looking at the boy who probably pledging about the revenge that he’ll get soon.Kelly smiled at the crying Eugene, before she turned around and retreated without staring back.Moments later, after all of the opponents evacuated through the other door, bullets tore through the door,
When Joshua came back at the Hong mansion, Eugene was the first one he saw. He anticipated it, except seeing the fresh wound on his right hand’s neck. In addition to that, his eyes also caught the knife which he saw a moment ago, and from what he can remember, it was the blade that Celine was holding before he went out to meet Woozi. He had a premonition that he won’t like the next thing he’ll hear, yet still, he detached his lips and dropped a low tone voice. “Where is my wife?” Eugene could not response. Thus, Joshua inquired again, putting more authority in his voice. “Where is Celine?” Joshua’s brows creased after he saw the odd expression that was written vividly on Eugene’s face. He has face like a wet weekend, down in the mouth, as if he was knocked out sideways. It was hard to ignore, but easy to notice the pain in his heart, which confused Joshua even more. Seldom, he caught Eugene’s different gaze towards Celine. They are not the eyes of a man, but something more than
“I killed my mother!” Terror mounted into him and paralyzed his body. His heart leaped to his throat, that he found it hard breathing and listening at the same time. ‘Celine killed her mother?’ he asked this to himself, again and again, until he can memorize each words with same intonation and weight. Then the reasons why she had to lost her memories came into his mind and lingered for long time; maybe for forever. But he did not blame Celine. There was no part in him that blaming the woman she loves. Moreover, he used this as an excuse for proving that keeping her memories sealed at the Pandora box will be more beneficial. Yet what’s the use of proving that? She already remembered the past. Even so, Seungcheol knew he had to fight against the rising panic that tormenting him and making his heart uneasy and guilty at the same time. He bit his lower lip, then continued his pace. As his sight became accustomed to the dark, he discovered the two figures of shadows where he could he
One memorable day, Jill asked her father something that surprised both of her parents. “Dad, can I come with you at your meeting work on Saturday?” Every Saturday, her father Klide had to attend the HongYoonChoi meeting where he serves Harvhey as his master. When it comes to the organization’s work, he is secretive towards his daughter. He thought she is too young to understand everything, even thought sometimes, Jill does not act by her real age. Thanks to her mother genes, Jill grew up differently from other kids. Klide and Freea looked at each other. They knew that Jill is the curious type of a kid. Even so, they could not believe that she will be this curious very sooner than they expected. “My daughter,” Freea called. She smiled at her pretty angel and held her hands. “May I know the reason why you wanted to go with your father?” Without hesitation, Jill answered her mom. “Actually, I met a young boy in school. I found out that he’s the one sending the cotton candy in my lo
Inside the interrogation room, Mingyu was doing his best to make Vret Wen talk. The technique? It is to also say nothing.Together inside the narrowed space, Mingyu ate foods in front of Vret. He ate noodles, pork, dumplings, pizza and grapes as his desserts. He does not look like a detective in this moment, but rather more like a mukbang vlogger.Well, if Mingyu would like to change his profession, he can pass as mukbang vlogger. First of all, he’s handsome. Second, he knows a lot about food, because he can cook too. Third, the way he eats is so satisfying and surely, there will be a lot who will enjoy watching him eat.But among people who already saw him eating, there’s one person who never ever found him adorable. And that is the man who is currently sitting on front of Mingyu.“Are you done eating?” Vret asked Mingyu.Mingyu drank water then stared at the man he arrested. Vret was the one who said he won’t say anything, but with the help of Mingyu’s long history of being the dete
Wonwoo heard the two shocking news. First, Mingyu arrested the leader of the Wen organization. Second, the scandal of Governor Shim Lee who is running for President. As soon as these information reached him, he rushed to go outside, to look for her sister or to whoever from the HongYoonChoi. He heard that Joshua and Celine came back, and though he still feel brokenhearted, he set aside his feelings. At this time, prioritizing his beloved little sister’s situation came first. “That’s why love is unhealthy,” Wonwoo murmured his protest while running towards the back entrance of his restaurant. He shoved his hand inside his pocket to get the key of his car. Not too far away from his vehicle, however, he saw two men approaching his side. He recognized the first man. But he couldn’t get any idea about the identity of the second man, who’s wearing all black; cap, mask and hood which made him look more suspicious. “Who?” Wonwoo asked as he turned his head to Woozi. “Yow,” Woozi greeted
“Young master Seungcheol is inside the room,” Eugene reported to Joshua. “He must be waiting for madam Celine to wake up.”Joshua lifted his head. Wordless, he stared at his right hand, as if he’s waiting for another news he would hear from Eugene.Eugene did not take his eyes off his master and soon opened his lips again.“The HongYoonChoi meeting talked about my punishment and the Yoon and Choi’s leaders withdrawal in their position.”“...”Again, the leader did not say a thing.Joshua mastered of using the flowery words during every conversation, so that he can read people’s minds and act according to that. Therefore if suddenly went quiet in front of someone else, that means he’s having a hard time looking through that person.Yes, he can’t read Eugene.‘Is it because I called my sister in her real name before?’ Eugene slightly regretted his recent action.He does not want to reveal his identity, as much as he wanted to protect his siblings. But when Eugene saw Celine in that havo
