Below that, the 8657f5fba9 faint outline of 27f6123252 a tattoo—angel wings? A bird?—peeked through, 5dc78f486a the same one ad330d7800 she had glimpsed 213e8e24af yesterday.bf6d009cec61bba8

“Now that I belong to you, is there anything I shouldn’t hear?”536aae744f728360

Yesterday, his rage had surged because someone dared to touch what was his. Seoyeon knew all too well that not even a sliver of that emotion was directed at her. When he grabbed her mother’s hand and led her out of the party hall, Seoyeon had felt something—just for a moment, something strange. But as soon as they returned home, that unidentifiable feeling vanished without a trace. Because Mooyoung  had locked every window and door from the outside.3c7554850d0c60cf

The proof that 02b510cbef when Jaebin stopped 7a56059717 Hyunju from reaching 43e454491b out to her, 2e94dd6569 it wasn’t out 6bc4544e79 of consideration or 21b78ef5e7 any sort of 7256945179 feeling for her. It was 63fa458809 simply because 8addd2da27 he couldn’t 0185aed7f2 tolerate someone 1ab38d3d3e else intruding f30016f9c6 on what 1041fa1167 was his.

Trapped in that bb5b0fc194 situation, all Seoyeon c66127b386 could do was d85e26a64b search the house 90965ad4dc again for the b4e5ede2f9 ledger. Her goal was 350f2e1b4d clear—escape from this 835a21525b lunatic who had d98c6d0a68 bound her here.

“Get out.”c7de4132035b0937

Jaebin continued eating without 593547b1fc even looking at her. Mooyoung  and 2de4a94a00 Jisoo gave 90b1735491 a respectful b323a21984 nod. As if her 359c7c6f8f words were meaningless, 84704a6367 the two men d03b3360be left the kitchen e6530b08fa without hesitation.

Seoyeon had 55def13d56 no interest e6beec8b63 in whether 82df937e33 he killed 57e6c2d778 her mother 35b0e83d13 or not. If anything, she 7085f066f0 hoped they would fe42b6d1ba destroy each other. Two psychopaths 8e0c521c14 who treated fb3d6b0a26 people like c23a87ce63 tools—if they 963a4a0a8f fought, they 3c0583409e wouldn’t just 14548e7fd3 ruin themselves 911535b72d but everyone 51641a6b01 around them.
