With a small groan, Tae Joon opened his eyes.
“Seo Rin?”
He called, but there was no response from her.
“Could it be, she’s asleep?”
It can’t be. Right?
But the unthinkable happened. Full of energy due to the effects of the drug, she fell asleep like a drained doll, leaning on his chest.
In the end, there were no winners or losers in this fight, but there was a clear victim.
Of course, it was selfevident that the victim was Tae Joon.
His face hurt, his swollen body hurt.
Despite being riddled with wounds from today’s events, Tae Joon was relieved.
“Ah…I almost fell victim.”
At the thought of having protected himself from her.
After the untimely brawl with Seo Rin, Tae Joon, who had cooled his body with a cold shower leaving the sleeping girl on the bed, came out to the living room and drank a glass of water.
Perhaps due to the enormity of what he had experienced, he didn’t feel like sleeping.
He opened a bottle of whiskey. A night like this would not be calmed with just wine.
As the bitter alcohol scraped down his throat, his mind finally snapped back to reality.
“What the hell was he doing…”
Even upon reflection, it was mindboggling and incredulous. He had only seen such crimes on the news, never witnessed it firsthand.
Moreover, Jo Min Hyung had the audacity to be brazen about it.
Even while being beaten up, didn’t he spew out excuses? The problem was that those excuses were rather persuasive.
So, he stepped back for the time being. Of course, he couldn’t escalate the situation largely because he had an appointment with a senior executive of the hotel.
However, he couldn’t just let today’s incident end like this.
His woman had been assaulted.
What if Director Park hadn’t harbored suspicions against Jo Min Hyung? What if they hadn’t arrived on time?
The mere thought was horrifying.
He would punish Jo Min Hyung one way or another. There was no need to involve the authorities in punishing Jo Min Hyung. The law was too lenient on criminals like Jo Min Hyung.
Tae Joon grumbled as if to let someone hear, pouring the last gulp of whiskey left in the ontherocks glass.
“Ha, Jo Min Hyung. How… should I get back at you.”
Seo Rin woke up to the soft touch of a hand brushing her hair. A familiar silhouette was captured in her blurry vision.
“Um… Tae Joon.”
“I must have woken you up. Sleep some more.”
“What time is it now?”
As she asked without opening her eyes, his low voice whispered.
“Half past nine.”
“Nine… huh? Half past nine?”
Startled, Seo Rin jumped up from the bed like a spring. Then, Tae Joon grabbed her shoulder and calmed her down.
“It’s Saturday today, Seo Rin. You don’t have to go to work. So, sleep more.”
“Ah… I forgot.”
She brushed her long, fallen hair and let out a sigh of relief.
“How do you feel? Does your head hurt?”
“Not at all. Why?”
She didn’t understand why Tae Joon was asking such a question. Except for her uncharacteristically oversleeping, it was a typical morning.
Her condition was not bad, and she didn’t feel any pain in her body. Even her head was clear.
But it was strange. She couldn’t remember last night.
Her last memory was right after she finished talking with Jo Min Hyung.
She had no memory of when she left the gathering, or how she got home.
“But Tae Joon, how did I get home? Did I take a taxi? Or did you…?”
At her question, Tae Joon’s face noticeably hardened. Did I get drunk by any chance?
“Did I make any mistakes yesterday? If so, I…”
“No, no, Seo Rin. You didn’t make any mistakes. Instead… pull yourself together and listen carefully to what I’m going to say now.”
From then on, Tae Joon said something she could never have imagined.
The story of Director Park seeing Jo Min Hyung dealing ketamine. Along with the story of her falling victim to that drug. The story of Tae Joon and Director Park barging in on time and taking her out.
Everything reminded her of a scene from a crime movie.
Was this really happening to me in the real world? I don’t remember at all? Even my condition wasn’t bad?
When Tae Joon finished speaking, Seo Rin was stunned.
He seemed to be lying.
“How could such a thing…”
“Right. It’s unbelievable. Even I, who remember everything from one to ten, feel like yesterday was just a dream. It feels like I had a terrible nightmare.”
“……”
“But that’s the truth. That’s what happened to you last night.”
“Ha…”
Seo Rin, bowing her head, held her own head. No matter how hard she tried to recall, her superior brain wasn’t functioning well today.
It was still a blank. If Tae Joon hadn’t told her, she might have spent the day as usual, not even knowing what happened yesterday.
Then, she remembered the women who had sued Jo Min Hyung a few years ago.
They had filed a lawsuit, but the evidence was so insufficient that the women were rather labeled as gold diggers.
It was understandable. The alleged victim didn’t seem like a victim at all, couldn’t remember anything, and her friend declared herself a witness and argued vehemently as if she were vomiting blood.
At that time, she had doubted how the victim could be so emotionally stable.
Rather, the one living in pain was not the victim, but her friend. She screamed in despair over the fact that she couldn’t prevent it, even though she was there.
But there was no evidence at all to legally punish Jo Min Hyung. The law was not on their side.
Instead, Seo Rin believed them.
It was a betrothal at the end of a deal to avoid a tiresome confrontation anyway. It was a relationship that would be quietly torn apart as if it had never existed a few years later, but Seo Rin moved that time forward.
No, perhaps she needed a good excuse to break off the engagement due to Jo Min Hyung’s changed behavior from the beginning.
That’s right. Seo Rin didn’t believe them, she just used what happened to them to her own advantage.
There were too many absurd situations to blindly believe them.
But now she understood. Why the victim could be so fine. Why her friend who was there sobbed so much and appealed for the injustice.
Why?
Because that friend was the only one who knew the whole truth.
Exactly, like Tae Joon in front of her.
Knowing the truth, anger surged through her, as if her skin was burning, even though she had no memory of it.
“But don’t worry. I’ll take care of everything. That bastard… I’ll make sure he pays.”
Tae Joon comforted her by his side.
But his consolation couldn’t quell her anger.
How dare you touch me?
You of all people?
“No, Tae Joon! I will do it! This bastard… I’m going to kill him myself!”
