The factory that lost its owner came to a halt.
The factory that had attracted the attention of a large corporation was sold at a low price, and after settling the remaining investment funds, employee salaries, and other expenses, what remained was barely enough to afford a monthly rental room.
Even after being kicked out into a cold, unheated small house with a four-year-old child in her arms, Mom vowed to somehow survive whenever she looked at young me.
Later, I found out that those who suddenly appeared, whom I only knew about, had been pressuring Mom since around the time I graduated from middle school.
The hard-earned money, earned tirelessly day and night, flowed into their pockets. I only learned recently why things didn’t improve even though business was doing well. The reason we couldn’t afford my university entrance fee either.
As Mom’s illness worsened and the store had to close, the target naturally shifted.
They destroyed our peaceful daily life, from our home to the company, and eventually pushed us to the edge, making us fugitives.
That was supposed to be everything.
Yet, just that alone was enough for me to resent you enough to want to kill you.
How could you commit such a horrific act and reappear before us as if nothing happened?
“What did you say? Say it again.”
Looking at Kwon Seungcheol, who was laughing with a contemptuous snort, memories of the conversation I had with Sunwoo last night suddenly came to mind.
“It’s a 23-year-old incident, so the statute of limitations has expired. It means that Kwon Seungcheol can’t be punished for the incident back then. The only charge he can be punished for now is coercion.”
“Then… the sentence will be very light.”
“Live for a maximum of 2 years. If you’re lucky, it might be a suspended sentence.”
Even with clear evidence, they couldn’t punish you. The devil who led us to hell is right in front of us, yet they couldn’t impose any penalty.
At most, 2 years, if lucky, a suspended sentence. So what can I do other than wishing you bad luck? Does that make sense?
With such thoughts accumulating, my resentment surged again. My fist clenched under the table was trembling.
“Why did you call me a son of a b**** just because I’m a son of a b****?”
I wanted to twist the neck of Kwon Seungcheol, who raised his head while laughing bitterly. Why did you do that to our dad, what did our dad do wrong, I wanted to ask him some reason.
“Have you finally gone crazy?”
So don’t laugh. You shouldn’t laugh because of you.
Because of you, we went through such painful times, because of you, how did I live. It’s unfair if you’re laughing so easily.
“How can you commit such an act and shamelessly come looking for us?”
“Such an act?”
“Just for 5 million won… Are you still a human being?”
As if pondering for a moment, Kwon Seungcheol, tilting his head with a sly smile, resumed laughing.
“How did you find out?”
In his words that didn’t deny anything and his cunning smile, Eunjae felt shivers all over his body.
“Ah, damn, caught red-handed? Unlucky bastard.”
There was no sense of guilt in the expression that spat out curses. There was no expectation at all.
“But what are you going to do? What can you do about an incident that happened 23 years ago?”
Things that even the law couldn’t handle. Leaning back lazily in his chair, Kwon Seungcheol continued speaking, and unable to endure any longer, Eunjae grabbed him by the collar.
“I won’t forgive you. If the law can’t do it, I will. I’ll chase you to hell and kill you!”
Eunjae, who grabbed Kwon Seungcheol’s shirt collar, shook him indiscriminately. It was a moment when Kwon Seungcheol, who hadn’t flinched like a rock, smiled pitifully and cruelly squeezed Eunjae’s shoulders.
Not far away, Sunwoo, who had been watching them, rushed over and pushed Kwon Seungcheol’s chest. Pushed aside, Kwon Seungcheol complained of chest pain, gripping the table at the edge.
“Yoon Sunwoo? Ha… you again? I thought you’d tear apart sooner, but you managed to hold on.”
“Shut your mouth. Before I tear it apart.”
Tears that had been hanging on the red irises, teetering dangerously, fell down behind Eunjae’s hood as Sunwoo, who had been hugging Eunjae from behind, wiped them away with the back of his hand.
“Let go, let go! If I kill that guy and take the punishment, that’s enough, isn’t it? Our dad is gone, why is that person still alive, why!”
“Eunjae!”
“Let go. We shouldn’t send him away like that. We shouldn’t…”
Sunwoo turned Eunjae around and embraced him. Eunjae, with his head buried in Sunwoo’s chest, sobbed sadly.
“Just don’t let him go. I said I’d do everything, I told you to trust me.”
“It’s unfair. We’re the victims, why are only we unhappy? Why are only we pitiful? Why are only we… aheuk…”
Kwon Seungcheol, who clenched his chest, took a deep breath and smoothed out the crumpled shirt.
“Cheongseung.”
Heartbreaking, tearful. The moment when Kwon Seungcheol, who had been watching the two with an unpleasant look, took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth, was.
“Are you Mr. Kwon Seungcheol?”
