Younger Man at Work (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 154

Eun Ho opened his eyes.

The excruciating pain that had felt like his whole body was breaking apart had greatly subsided. His body no longer felt as heavy as a thousand weights, as it had earlier, and instead felt light.

Choi Won Ha had locked the door and beaten Eun Ho with fists and kicks. Later on, saying his hands hurt, he’d grabbed a broom from the corner and hit him with that.

Throughout the prolonged beating, Eun Ho gritted his teeth and didn’t make a sound. Thanks to Choi Won Ha deliberately avoiding his face, he could hide the injuries from the other members.

[I already talked things over well with Hyung Won Ha, so don’t worry.]

If the members found out he’d been beaten, it would surely escalate into a major fight.

His body hurt terribly, but he couldn’t go to the hospital. In a world where anyone unfamiliar with Chris at New Stars Center was automatically deemed a spy, it simply wasn’t an option. When he’d gone to the amusement park with his sister, hadn’t strangers recognized him despite the hat and mask and come up to talk? If he went to the hospital, someone would inevitably recognize him, and if word got out that he’d been beaten this badly, it would cause a huge uproar.

In the end, the only place he could go was his sister’s house. He knew for certain she’d be heartbroken if she found out, but he couldn’t think of any other option.

So as soon as Eun Ho regained consciousness, he immediately apologized to his sister.

“I’m sorry for making you worry, Nuna.”

Eun Seo, who’d been watching over him, squeezed his hand tightly.

“What are you sorry for, you idiot?”

Her voice was calm, but her eyes were swollen from crying.

“And don’t tell Seon Ah Nuna, okay? ……She’d be really upset if she found out.”

He’d already made his sister cry unavoidably, but he didn’t want Seon Ah to cry too.
