Chapter 99.1

Click! Click, click!

Sera realized that reporters with cameras were getting closer to bed every time a flash went off.

“D-don’t come! Damn, who told you to shoot whatever you want? Do you want to be sued?”

Sarah burst into a rage. Something hit her back as she stepped back under a constant flash.

Just like that, it wasn’t long before her back began to get wet.

Sera slowly turned her head, feeling a chill.

“You…!”

It was Kang Tae Oh.

Kang Tae-oh soaked in blood.

He was looking at her with sad eyes.

Sera stood up, conscious of the reporters who were chasing Kang Tae-oh while walking backwards. When she looked back, the exploding flashes stopped. Reporters had disappeared too.

“Ha…”

Sera was relieved for a moment, but Kang Tae-oh grabbed her wrist from behind.

“Hey, you’re not letting go of this……?”

Sera tried to wiggle out her wrist.

“Danger…”

“What?”

“I said he was dangerous.”

“What are you talking about? I can’t hear your damn voice.” Sarah shouted.

Then, as he raised his head, maggots and bloodballs poured down from Kang Tae-oh’s wide mouth.

Sera, who was staring blankly at the bizarre appearance, screamed belatedly, “Heuk…!”

Sera took a breath and opened her eyes wide, “Is it a nightmare? Yes, a dream. It’s a dream.”

A wet towel touched Sera’s relieved forehead. Someone was wiping her forehead.

“Unnie. Are you awake?”

“Seo Haewon…”

I must have been having dinner with my mother. No, I went to the bathroom because I felt sick.

Hae-won carefully put down a wet towel when she saw Sera’s face crumpled from memory.

“You collapsed unconscious, so Mr Kim moved you to my room.”

“I…… fainted?”

“Yes. The doctor will be here soon. Oh, do you want some water?” Hae-won looked around as if she was looking for water. Sera smiled in vain at the foolish look.

‘You’re taking care of me peacefully. The fact that I tried to kill your fiance, you will never know. You’re such a stupid girl.’

Then suddenly, if Hae-won was here, she thought Adam would wait for her somewhere.

“Hey, Seo Haewon.” When Sera sang in a cracked voice, Hae-won, who was pouring water, raised her head.

“You’re trying to screw me, aren’t you?”

“What?”

“You’re pretending to be nice in front of me, but you’re trying to take my place in the end.”

“I-it can’t be.”

“Then why did you take over Ellie’s stock?”

“That’s…” Hae-won lowered her head, blurring the end of her words. “I wanted to protect Adam even that way. That’s all. I didn’t mean anything else.”

Hae-won’s honest answer made her irritated. Who does this idiot want to protect?

“Did you have any other intentions?” Sera followed Haewon’s words with sarcasm. “But I’m going to end up the same way by Joo Adam. He’ll kick me out and put you in that position.”

“W-why would Adam do such a thing? I told you at the dinner table. He just want to live quietly.”

“Ha, quietly?” Sera snorted. A guy who wants to live quietly kills people?

Sera grabbed the blanket and swallowed her words that were kicked to the tip of her throat.  “Don’t trust Joo Adam too much. He’s a devil. He only pretends to be gentle in front of you.”

“Unnie!” As Hae-won raised her voice, Sera jumped up and sat down. And shouted louder.

“You should be careful, too! I’m saying this because I’m worried about you. You idiot!”

Hae-won paused at Sera’s attack and refuted Sera in a clear voice.

“……if you’re really worried, just leave us alone. Please.”

Sera looked blankly at Haewon and lowered her head. She was completely charmed by the fox.

A moron.

“Hnn, hahaha…” Sera began to laugh.

“Unnie, are you okay?”

“Don’t touch me!” Sera struck Haewon’s hand. And she shook her shoulders obsessively, opened her eyes, and shot Hae-won.

“Don’t even look at me like that!”

“Yes……?”

Those eyes.

Those eyes that look like Kang Tae-oh in my dream.

The idiot looked anxiously at her even in his dream. That’s why she was going crazy. In such a vain way.

“Don’t look at it like you’re sympathetic!”

When Sera raised her right arm, Hae-won instinctively shrank.

“I’ll make it go away.”  Adam’s voice spread like a warning sound in Sera’s head.

Sera clenched her fist tightly and managed to withstand the urge to hit Hae-won’s cheek.
