“Alright. But tell me who that guy is.” Leo Sebastian wasn’t a fool. Just as Ian had questions for him, Leo had questions for Ian too. “That guy, right? The one who did this to my arm.” “Yeah.” “Who is he?” “…I don’t know. That’s what I’m trying to find out.” After a brief exchange, they moved locations. With Leo whining about being hungry, they grabbed burgers and fries nearby before heading to an apartment where Leo was staying temporarily. The building…-

The convenience of selective memory was a blessing. Disagreeable and sad events could be forgotten quickly, leaving nearly no trace. When his adoptive father was murdered, or when his mother succumbed to severe depression and schizophrenia and began losing her mind, Ian didn’t let the tragedy consume him or fall apart. He considered himself lucky for it. Even now, when he looked back, the significant, painful memories were already faint. He barely remembered the bone-chilling dampness of the drizzling…

When he opened his eyes again, he was alone. Ian slowly turned his head, gazing at the sheets, which faintly held traces of them both. He had slept with Revenant. They hadn’t had sex, but it felt like a more intimate act than that. He’d shown himself completely vulnerable, spilling raw emotions, and the other had simply held him, unperturbed and steady. Remembering the whispers that had lingered by his ear, Ian clenched his eyes shut. If I hadn’t been angry, I might’ve given myself…

The piercing blue gaze wrapped around Ian as if binding him tightly with a single line. "… Are you scared?" Yes, Ian was scared of him. Even responding that he was scared frightened him, but he gathered his courage and gave a small nod. He felt like something would happen if he didn’t answer… "There’s no choice." When he said that, Ian felt so terrified that tears started to spill. Ian bit his lip as his eyes glazed over with a thin veil of fear, and the man with blue eyes lowered his…

“Wh… Who did you say?” Tim Hogan’s voice wavered as Ian, with a slight smirk, answered his question. “My babysitter.” “What?” Tim Hogan, momentarily distracted, spilled a bit of his beer. As he wiped the sticky foam off his mouth with the back of his hand, he looked back and forth between Ian and Matthias’s subordinate standing behind him. “Babysitter? What the hell are you talking about?” “Exactly that.” Ian’s sharp tone made it clear he wouldn’t tolerate…

The top-floor suite, which included a guest room, also featured a terrace and an indoor pool. Because of that, Ian couldn’t indulge in the luxury of enjoying the view below from the 19th floor while relaxing in the jacuzzi, but that didn’t mean the hotel’s design was flawed. After all, the scenery of this small city wouldn’t exactly suit the elegance of this suite. In that sense, the suite where the man was staying had everything the hotel could offer without leaving anything out. For these…

Minjae’s response left Yul fuming, but she couldn’t argue. She understood his sincerity and his ambitions as the president of the company. Besides, she knew that Yoonjo had been his friend first, and they had been closer. Now that Yoonjo had become a major player in the industry, he could be a great asset to the company. Refusing his request must have already been hard enough for Minjae to keep his loyalty to her. “Why is Kang Yoonjo assigning such a big project to me, anyway?” Aside from…-

The door to the President’s Office was already open. After a customary knock, Yul entered without waiting for a response. “President.” “Oh, Team Leader Seomun.” President Kim Minjae, who had been leaning against his desk, quickly stood up in surprise. He was not only her senior from college but also a close friend. Bright, kind, and sociable from his undergrad days, he was someone juniors could follow easily without hesitation. Years ago, when Minjae inherited his father’s company,…

She kept messing up all day. She misplaced items, registered orders incorrectly, and even forgot the boss’s instructions. Eventually, her boss, who’d only stopped by briefly to check in, spoke up. “Yul, is something going on at home?” “No, not at all.” “Then did you break up with that handsome boyfriend of yours?” Her boss’s eyes sparkled with curiosity about Yoonjo, who showed up in front of the store twice daily. Initially, his constant questioning had annoyed her, so she…

“What do you mean… How do you even know that?” “My dad and Yoonjo’s dad are like brothers. I’ve grown up with Yoonjo as if we were one family. Even a month ago, we all had dinner together and talked about the day Yoonjo was planning to leave.” “……” In that instant, Yul felt like she had been thrown into freezing waters in the middle of winter. The blood in her veins turned icy cold, chilling her entire body. The shock was so overwhelming that her throat felt tightly choked,…
