Chapter 100 - A break (1/2)

"After that, both of us sneaked out and met a lot of times outside. In the very beginning, Jinkyung was a sweet and innocent girl, and it took me no less than a week to fall for her.

Gradually, when she revealed her true personality, I did not suspect her much. She manipulated and trained me into her loyal dog I suppose by that time.

It is shameful as to how such a man like me was so pathetic. All it took was a cunning teen girl to control me into doing whatever she wanted.

The reason behind Lee Dowon's death and Hyunki's ruin was me. I was the one who protected Jinkyung against all those dirty people in the industry and kept her safe from the rumour.

All those hate towards you online and attacks against you was because of my orders. Under Jinkyung's order, I even killed you at last.

I know, it's absolutely impossible for you to forgive me, but now that I have gotten the chance, I want to change everything. I promise to bring no trouble to those you hold dear and make up for everything I did in my past life."

Everything Taeho voiced out made Jinhee overwhelmed with the emotions, and she did not know how to process her thoughts properly.

"I-I think I need a break."

That's all Jinhee said before running out of the café with various kind of thoughts rising inside of her mind.

She had been walking for a while now, and her legs started to ache. The sky was getting darker, and the people on the beach was gradually decreasing.

Before going to the hotel room, Jinhee decided to sit by the vast body of water and calm down her thoughts. As Jinhee sat down on the sand, she felt the wave of water hit her leg; The feeling was quite pleasant to her.

Everything Han Taeho told her today was not something she had ever expected. No matter how many times she thought about it, she was confused as to how such a man was manipulated by a girl like Jinkyung.

Jinkyung might be smart when it comes to studies. However, her smartness is not to the extent of being able to control a man like Han Taeho completely.

There must be an unknown factor behind it.

Absorbed in her thoughts, Jinhee was bought back to the world when she heard an unfamiliar voice call her, and as she turned back, she was turned to see a knife directed towards her.
