However, without answering Director Park’s question, Seorin turned her gaze out the window.
Since the intentional accident that someone caused, her life had become another hell.
Who harbored such a grudge against her mother?
Now, Taejun’s feelings, who had lived with questions about his mother’s death, began to be understood.
It was really frustrating. It felt like being trapped alone in a room without a single window. What should she do to escape from here?
Just as Seorin was about to let out a small sigh, Director Park’s voice came through.
“I’ve arrived. President, sir.”
“Yeah. Good job, Director Park. See you tomorrow.”
“Yes. Also, there’s a new Chinese restaurant in front of here. It’s surprisingly delicious. I’ll send you some information later. Give it a try.”
“Yeah. Thanks.”
After the farewell, as Director Park drove away, Seorin turned back. Just as she was about to enter the office building, a familiar voice sent chills down her spine.
“Seorin…”
In the darkness, he revealed himself, looking unusually disheveled and shadowy.
“What’s this? Have you gone mad? Do you even know where this is?”
“Sorry. But, as you know, considering my circumstances, I had no choice. Let’s talk for a moment.”
Seorin’s cold eyes scanned him from top to bottom. Minhyeong felt a sense of humiliation to the point where his whole body trembled under that gaze, but he couldn’t step back.
He had to somehow reach an agreement with Seorin today.
Well, what’s this little pride anyway?
“You still haven’t come to your senses. Don’t I know? I thought I made it clear who I am.”
The chilling voice alone sent shivers down his spine.
However, Minhyeong wasn’t greatly surprised, as he had anticipated the situation.
“I know. But… I had to do this. Can’t you help me file a complaint?”
“Are you crazy? Have you forgotten what you did to me? When you messed with me, I thought you were ready for the consequences.”
“I must have been out of my mind back then. I’m really sorry. I’ll apologize sincerely.”
“Even if I make the effort to accept your apology, do you think I gathered evidence and presented it just for you to ask me to file a complaint? I warned you. Be careful.”
“I was careful. That’s why I haven’t shown up in front of you since then. I thought I might get on your nerves.”
Although Minhyeong pathetically explained his situation, it didn’t convince Seorin.
Even though she was much smaller in stature, she approached him fearlessly, threateningly opening her mouth.
“You’re wrong. You should have quietly crumbled away, living like a dead person, untouched by Sejiwon or anyone else, causing no harm like a corpse.”
“…”
“And you should have apologized to Sejiwon, not me. That was your first mistake. If you had genuinely reflected, you should have gone to Sejiwon before me.”
“Okay. If you want, I’ll apologize to Sejiwon too. I’ll do whatever you want. So, please… Can’t you file a complaint?”
“You’re really…”
“I’m begging like this. I’ve really come to my senses. Huh? Should I kneel? I’ll kneel if you want!”
Minhyeong kneeled right there.
It seemed really urgent. However, he couldn’t thaw Seorin’s frozen heart to that extent. Rather, his current pathetic appearance seemed more insincere, like a desperate act.
“This time spent mixing words with you is a waste. So, don’t waste my time and just go away.”
Seorin coldly turned away from the kneeling Minhyeong. However, he didn’t give up there; he stood up and grabbed her arm.
Seorin turned around, disgusted.
“Are you crazy? Where are you grabbing with those dirty hands?”
“Hey, I’m going this far, and do you really think turning away like this is refreshing? Even without that, I was unconditionally detained on drug charges because of you. So, let’s just make some agreement on this at least. Why do you have to be like this?”
“Let go of this hand. It’s the last warning.”
“Please… Please, Seorin. You won’t do that again, right? I mean it. Just trust me this once.”
“A dog stops pooping.”
“I’m serious! If making me pay for my sins was your goal, you’ve succeeded to some extent!”
As Minhyung’s voice rose in frustration and annoyance, Seorin roughly brushed his hand aside. Then, pushing him against the wall with no place to retreat, when they came to a stop and there was nowhere else to go, she murmured in a low voice.
“I already knew you lacked intelligence, but you’re truly foolish.”
“What… What?”
“I wasn’t just putting on a show to make you pay for your sins.”
“Then…”
“I could have quietly proceeded with the lawsuit. But why do you think I made a fuss in the media and revealed my name?”
“…”
“I’m… trying to confine you within my name.”
“…”
“Paying for your sins won’t be the end of it. I’ll make sure my name haunts you for the rest of your life.”
Her voice, piercing and harsh, sent shivers down Minhyung’s spine. However, he couldn’t comprehend her words.
What? Confine within the name?
What on earth does that mean?
But Seorin, done speaking, smoothly moved away when the elevator arrived. In a hurry, Minhyung chased after her into the elevator again.
“Seorin, Baek Seorin! My story isn’t over yet!”
As he reached out again to grab her, a powerful force made Minhyung’s throat tighten, and he moved away from her, feeling drowsy. The hand he had stretched out was left aimlessly flailing in the air.
Thud!
Thrown out of the elevator once again, Minhyung collided with the wall Seorin had pushed him against moments ago. But this time, the impact on his body was far more intense than before.
Due to the shock that surged through his entire body, his muscles contracted rapidly.
Moreover, the pressure on his throat made it nearly impossible to breathe.
“Taehoon-ssi!”
Upon hearing Seorin’s voice, Minhyung, realizing that the one choking him was Taehoon, gritted his teeth and regained consciousness.
“Let go of this… please…”
“I warned you last time.”
“It’s not that… Ugh! It’s not that, I came to ask for forgiveness this time… Really… I did.”
Even though he had experienced it before, Taehoon’s grip was unbearably harsh.
“Taehoon-ssi, he’s not worth it.”
Seorin grabbed Taehoon’s arm, attempting to stop him. Even though her words belittled and insulted herself, Minhyung was just grateful that she intervened on his behalf.
However, it seemed ineffective against Taehoon.
On the contrary, the hand squeezing his throat tightened even more as he bowed his head closer, bringing his face near.
Up close, his face was indeed frighteningly handsome.
A face so handsome, it’s regrettable to be used like this.
Chilly eyes.
And a perfectly symmetrical face.
With that face, he issues a warning.
“In the future… Don’t even step on the shadow of my woman.”
Trembling, fiercely.
