Chapter 230 - Not wasting a second longer (1/2)

”The book— I brought it. You can take it,” Min Hyesook vocalised as she held the book forward.

The cloaked man turned back. Nonetheless, his cloak did not appear to be the one that he used usually, causing Hyesook to seem confused, and seeing how his physique was not similar either, Hyesook had assumed that man to send someone else.

The cloaked man moved closer to Min Hyesook and accepted the book from her. Before he could go away from that part, Hyesook tightly gripped on to his sleeve, causing him to stop.

Hyesook then said, ”This is the last contact I am having with him. Tell him that. If he tries to contact me again, I will inform Jiwoo on how he is Jiwoo's father.”

The man did not respond to Hyesook.

Feeling irritated by man's attitude, Hyesook vocalised, ”I clearly know on why he gave me that medicine the other day. He totally did it because he did not want for her characteristics to be exposed, and tell him that I have fed her that. However, if he bothers me one more time, I will be revealing all of this to the—”

Before Min Hyesook could continue, the cloaked man extended his hand towards her and gripped her neck tightly.

Hyesook's eyes widened at that, and she found herself having a difficulty when it came to breathing. As Hyesook was suffocating, she moved her hands around randomly, trying to hit the man holding on to her

She attempted to kick the man multiple times by now. However, her actions remained unsuccessful. Although she tried to call for help, her voice was barely loud enough.

When Min Hyesook was very close to losing her consciousness, the man disappeared off to thin air. Clutching her neck with two of her hands, she fell back on the dirty road and coughed continuously.

Watching everything from a safe distance was Seo Jihyun, and surprise immediately showed upon his face after that. He did not expect to come over such a discovery.

There was no time for him to waste or think regarding it. He immediately had to let Han Minhyun know about it before things got more serious than this.

At the Moon Mansion, he had seen Hyesook take the fake book, making him inquisitive on her motive behind it, and he decided to follow after her, thinking that she is connected to whatever that threatens the Red Clan.

Nonetheless, he did not expect to come across this, and not wasting a second longer, he instantly transported out of that place.

The taste or the thought of drinking blood was not anything that Lee Soohyun found pleasant. Nevertheless, with her nose scrunched, she managed to drink down the entire goblet of blood.

The metallic taste of the blood lingered upon her tongue as Minhyun took the goblet from her, and Soohyun blinked her eyes once. That is when, she felt a sharp wave of pain hit her head, and a groan left her mouth.
