Chapter 99.2

‘there’s never been a second time, you’ll know best. your loyal dog is dead, so stop giving up and accept reality.’

a murderer.

when this fact becomes known, her life will be completely over. the blade she aimed at others was like returning to her.

sera bit her lower lip tightly.

haewon was pandora’s box. no, she’s the cause. touching haewon meant that this terrible secret would soon be revealed to the world.

“……go away.” sera muttered, looking venomously into the air. hae-won left the room more carefully, looking at sera.

“is it a relief that this is the end?” haewon thought across the garden.

she saw a car in the distance. when she thought of adam, who had been waiting alone for a long time, she walked faster.

hae-won opened the car door and said, “adam, you had a hard time today, right? thank you very much.”

adam thought on hae-won’s words and tilted his head. “isn’t it the chairman who should be praised, not me?”

“what?”

“she was quiet unlike usual.”

“…….”

hae-won just looked at adam quietly.

adam was quite embarrassed by hae-won’s unusual appearance. but soon, seeing this awkward situation as an opportunity, he smiled with his eyes bent like a fox, “i’m embarrassed when you look at me like that.”

when adam was coy, hae-won, who was quiet, burst into laughter. she shook her head as if she couldn’t stop.

“is that what someone who is ashamed of says?”

“i’m telling you the truth.” adam put one hand on hae-won’s thigh. “i’m nervous just looking at you like this.”

“i….”

hae-won glanced at adam’s lips without realizing it.

adam, who had already noticed her eyes, was smiling.

“……!”

and their lips overlapped.

their tongues were gently tangled inside the overlapping lips. whenever his tongue and her tongue touched each other, she felt floating from reality.

the fact that this place is seo mansion passed by in hae-won’s head, who was soaked in distant ecstasy.

“w-wait a minute……!” hae-won, who belatedly came to her senses, pushed adam.

hae-won wiped her lips that were shiny with saliva. and quickly lowered her head. if she looked into adam’s eyes, she thought she’d get drunk on the atmosphere and kiss him again.

“we have to go home.”

“when we go home . . . ” adam followed hae-won’s words and stretched his words. and he asked back, touching hae-won’s waist, “are you going to let me continue?”

hae-won pulled adam’s hand off with a grin.

and answered in a low voice.

“yes.”

* * *

“ah-.”

adam opened his mouth with his eyes closed.

hae-won pushed a spoon into his round mouth. adam chewed on the food while looking at haewon, “it’s more delicious because haewon fed it to me.”

“really? that’s a relief.” hae-won answered, picking up side dishes.

in seo mansion, adam used chopsticks alone, and as soon as he opened his eyes in the morning, he pretended that his arm hurt.

so hae-won was feeding adam from the morning.

“one more.”

“ah-.”

adam also glanced over hae-won’s shoulder while eating. lunch boxes were neatly placed on the counter, “what are these, haewon?”

“oh, this? i was packing a lunch box for your company.”

“…for me?”

“yes, i promised you before.”

when adam woke up in the morning, realizing that hae-won was not in the bed, he immediately felt terrible displeasure. however, when he found out that haewon was getting up from dawn and packing his lunch, the discomfort disappeared like snow melting. and he wanted to put this lovely woman on the table right away as there was a strong urge to eat her instead of breakfast.

he can barely put up with it.

“thank you for the meal, haewon.”

after finishing the meal, adam smiled beautifully and acted cute. and hae-won quickly dissuaded him when she was trying to collect empty bowls.

“i’ll do the dishes. your arm hurts.”

“i can do the dishes.”

“no. now, i’ll wash the dishes first while you showered.”

hae-won flatly refused and pushed adam’s back. adam hesitated to enter the bathroom.

‘it’s hard to pretend to be sick.’ adam sighed inside.

apart from being cared for, he didn’t want a drop of water on haewon’s hand.

‘i’m glad adam enjoyed it.’ hae-won began to wash the dishes while listening to the sound of water leaking through the closed door. but soon the bathroom door opened.

“haewon.” hae-won quickly turned her head to the sound of her name.

“can you help me wash up?”
