Chapter 72 - Abandon My Morals (1/2)

When Lee Soohyun sat on the tiled floor, Minhyun noticed the boy who was pulled up with her. The boy could not get out of the bas.e.m.e.nt without someone pulling him up.

A barrier was placed at the mouth of the bas.e.m.e.nt, and when Lee Soohyun pulled him along with her, his hand came out of the barrier. That was enough for him to leave the bas.e.m.e.nt.

Releasing Lee Soohyun's hand, he brushed his hand against his pants, and stepping up, a smirk sat upon his face. Walking up, the boy stared straight at Han Minhyun and tucked his hands inside his pocket.

”Long time no see, Han Minhyun,” The boy voiced out.

An impa.s.sive expression sat on Han Minhyun's face. Opening his mouth, he spoke out, ”Kim Junghyun.”

Lee Soohyun felt a fierce gaze in her way. Raising her head, Soohyun noticed that it was Han Minhyun who was staring like that. A chill went down Soohyun's spine, and she gulped.

The relief and happiness she displayed disappeared at that moment; It was replaced with fright. Soohyun's hand started to tremble, and as she stood up, her legs were somewhat shaky. Looking at Han Minhyun's eyes, Soohyun knew that something terrifying was coming for her.

”Moon Jiwoo,” Han Minhyun enunciated.

Soohyun's hair stood up, and her heart started to beat rapidly. Unable to stare at Han Minhyun's dark eyes further, Lee Soohyun turned to look at the other way.

”Let's go home,” He commanded, and Lee Soohyun nodded docilely.

Looking at the butler, who stood behind him, Han Minhyun ordered, ”Take care of him.”

The boy climbed up and stood on the tile. Brushing his hand through his hair, he stared at Han Minhyun with a victorious expression on his face.

”Leaving so soon, Han Minhyun?” The boy asked.

”Since you're here after so long, let's catch up on each other,” The boy voiced out, and, then, looking at Lee Soohyun, the boy added, ”Let me get to know your wife as well.”

Facing the boy, Minhyun spoke out, ”Even if you're out of the bas.e.m.e.nt, you won't be able to leave the mansion.”

Minhyun turned on his heels and walked away. Looking at how things went between the boy and Minhyun, Soohyun could easily sense the animosity between the two.

Tilting his head to look back, he said, ”What are you waiting for? Follow me.”

Lee Soohyun nodded and walked behind Han Minhyun quietly. The tense atmosphere made it hard for Soohyun to open her mouth and say something.

”Han Minhyun, you're leaving me with this old man again? This is really not fun. If you want to, then leave behind your wife. Although she is an idiot, she is really fun,” Junghyun spoke out.

Lee Soohyun wanted to exclaim out a 'no'. Neither did she have any desires to stay at this creepy mansion nor endure this unbearably arrogant nine year old.

Wearing a smirk on his face, Han Minhyun turned back and stated, ”Trust me. I'm really doing a favour to you by taking her away. You won't be able to bear how she is, and I don't want you to die that easily.”
