“If anything happens to me—even if it’s just a maybe—you quit here right away.” At Seowon’s words, Jian immediately frowned. “Why are you saying that? You’re making it sound like something’s really going to happen.” Seowon smiled wryly at her serious expression. “You never know what could happen to people.” “True, but when you say something like that, it’s hard to just brush off.” Given she’d already been to his funeral once, Jian’s reaction made…-

“Why didn’t you bring him today? Weren’t you sticking to him like glue?” At Liam’s question, Iden tilted his head slightly. After watching Liam’s soft smile for a moment, he seemed to understand and let out a short sigh. “Because he’s hurt.” Liam chuckled at Iden’s response. “No matter how far away I am in South Korea, did you think I’d know nothing about it? I already heard he just has a slight fracture. You practically locked him up at home.” “If others heard,…

TL | Chapter 42 | Acknowledgment
How long had he slept? Human habits were fascinating. When you have to wake up at the same time every day, your body just naturally gets up at that time without an alarm. But with nothing pressing to do, Iden had started waking up later and later. Still, he never slept in too late. Usually, the sunlight streaming through the windows woke him up naturally. But today, when he opened his eyes, the room was still dark. Looking around, he realized the curtains were drawn, making it hard to gauge the time. He…-

“Enough.” Without knowing what else to say, Seowon stepped forward and took the towel he was holding. As Seowon wiped his still-dripping hair with the towel, Iden looked up at Seowon. “What’s this, some kind of service?” “I just don’t like water dripping on the bed. I’ll be sleeping here now, too.” At that, Iden gave a faint smile and wrapped both arms around Seowon’s waist. “It’s hard to dry myself.” I tried to push him away since it was an awkward position for…

The entire car ride back from the aquarium, Seowon was silent, lost in thought. Iden’s words kept replaying in his head—“You’re the light to me.” It wouldn’t leave his mind, especially after their conversation about the light illuminating the water earlier. Iden had said that in pitch-black darkness, everything would have seemed terrifying, but the blue light made it beautiful. Did he mean his own life was like a dark underwater world? Maybe he was overthinking it, but the thought lingered,…

TL | Chapter 39 | Light
8:30 PM. As they arrived in front of the aquarium, a man who seemed to be the person in charge came out to meet Iden and Seowon but flinched upon seeing the men in black suits. It was only natural to feel tense around such an unusual group. For precaution, the security team had accompanied them the whole way from the car to the aquarium entrance. Given that it was an enclosed building, defending against an attack inside would be challenging, which only made them look more suspicious to the…-

TL | Chapter 38 | Overprotective
Just as Iden had mentioned, around five in the evening, Min arrived with the groceries. The amount he’d bought was staggering—behind Min, a line of security guards followed, each carrying paper boxes filled with every kind of food ingredient imaginable. When they spread out the boxes across the living room floor, Seowon couldn’t help but sigh. It looked like they had enough supplies to last not just a few days but an entire month without stepping outside. There was no need for Seowon to wonder…-

TL | Chapter 37 | Date?
As soon as Ha Seowon fell back asleep, Iden stepped out into the hallway, where Min was waiting. He hadn’t entered, probably to avoid disturbing them. “The Underboss is waiting for you.” Hearing that Liam was waiting, Iden nodded and followed Min to the end of the same-floor hallway. Min knocked on the door for him, and a voice from inside asked who it was. “Director’s here,” Min answered in English, glancing back at Iden. Shortly after, the door opened, and one of Liam’s men stepped…-

“When did you get here?” Seowon took a deep breath, as if trying to shake off the remnants of sleep, but soon winced in pain. Although he didn’t groan, and his expression only twisted for a brief moment before he acted as if nothing was wrong, Iden, who had been watching him intently, stiffened. “And the job you had to take care of? Did you handle it?” Seowon changed the subject, but Iden remained silent, not offering any answer. Whether Seowon was genuinely curious or just fishing for…

Leo and the other bodyguards swallowed nervously, thinking it might actually be better if someone just shouted or threw a tantrum. Bang! Another gunshot echoed. This time, blood began to flow from the man’s right arm. He gritted his teeth, breaking into a cold sweat. Though he refrained from screaming, which was commendable, he was trembling like an aspen tree, as if he sensed his impending fate. “This time was a mistake. With your right arm shot, you can’t shoot a gun anymore.” Though he…
