Chapter 111.1

at that time, seo cheong-do, who was looking around the chairman’s office, found a medicine bottle in a desk drawer and asked with a surprised look.

“w-why do you touch other people’s things?”

woo-hee quickly closed the drawer and blocked it with her body.

“i’m properly prescribed and eating.”

she made a visible excuse when her feet were fidgetting for no reason.

seo cheong-do gave a suspicious look to his daughter, but eventually returned without saying anything.

‘it’s an ultrasound of your niece. you should know that i have a new family member.’

leaving a picture and a dagger in woohee’s chest.

woo-hee stared at the ultrasound picture as if she would eat it up, tore it into pieces, and scattered it on the floor.

the medicine her mother found was a stimulant. some of the drugs that were not found were sleeping pills.

seo woo-hee felt like she was on the edge of a cliff.

the responsibility to lead the inherited family business properly and the constant rush was demanding. but she didn’t want to borrow someone else’s help.

because i’m an alpha.

like any other alpha who monopolizes the ruling class of society as the head of a company.

she had to prove her natural, innate, unrivaled superiority.

she had to prove it herself.

my values and meaning of existence.

“i’ve been alone all my life. nobody knows how i feel. who would understand.”

she felt like she had a big hole in her heart.

the near-fate resignation that nothing could fill the hole choked her.

“woohee! seo woohee! what’s wrong with your eyes?”

when woo-hee opened her eyes again, kwon-jin was shaking her body. she must have fallen asleep on the sofa. she drank a bit too much before that.

“oh, why did you…….”

woo-hee blinked her eyes slowly and blurted the end of her words.

kwon jin grabbed woo-hee’s two cheeks. and asked woo-hee, carefully ripping them off her face.

“did you take medicine?”

“……what medicine.”

“then what are those?”

“……it’s disgusting.”

“what?”

“it’s disgusting. don’t pretend to worry now!”

slap!

woo-hee shouted, hitting kwon-jin’s arm.

kwon jin looked at her sister with sad and warm eyes, then at her red skin.

“i’m really worried, woo-hee. don’t you understand how i feel?”

“oh, i don’t know. that’s why you stabbed me in the back like this.”

woo-hee giggled and looked somewhere. following woo-hee’s gaze, kwon jin’s gaze also headed there.

kwon jin’s face turned pale like a blank sheet when she noticed that the tear on the floor was an ultrasound picture of a child.

“you’re not on my side anymore.”

“why do you think so dichotomously?”

kwon jin looked back at woo hee and asked.

“me? no? this is a matter of course. if you’re not on my side, you’re just an enemy. and if you’re not family, you’re just a stranger! you’re the only one who doesn’t know this obvious thing! just you!”

“seo woohee!”

slap!

woo-hee’s face turned with a fierce sound. kwon jin shook woo-hee’s shoulder and begged.

“wake up! please!”

“urgh!”

woo-hee grabbed kwon-jin’s cheek and stared at her.

“if you’re that dissatisfied, you hit me, too.

suddenly, kwon jin showed one cheek.

woo-hee was just staring. then she began to shed tears like a child.

“no. why would i hit you? i’m always the bad guy. this is how you turn me into a cold-hearted human being.…. i-i hate everything! i’m going to quit everything!”

woo-hee got up from the sofa pushing kwon-jin.

as it was, she ran out of the president’s office. she ran frantically and opened the emergency exit door at the end of the hallway, and the stairs continued endlessly below it.

woo-hee stepped down the stairs like she was chased by something.

“haeuk, heuk, huff!”

when she reached the first floor, her whole body was soaked in sweat. she reached for the handle.

“urgh.”

when she suddenly opened the door, the blinding sunlight quickly engulfed her vision. woo-hee walked slowly forward, covering her eyes with one arm.

‘i’m dizzy. i can’t see.’

the sun was so strong that she couldn’t lower her arm. it was blinding hot.

beep.

horns honked everywhere.

get out of the way! do you want to die?

woo-hee stood tall in the ensuing horns.

“yes, kill me. please kill me.”

someone, end my horrible life.

at the time when woo-hee, who was in an uncontrollable disappointment, longed for death, someone pushed her back.

thud!

she heard something being hit.

woo-hee, who raised her head, looked back, and there were long red bloodstains on the road.

she shifted her gaze slowly along the red road.

the one at the end…….

“u-unnie…?”

“k-kwonjin……. she’s dead?”

seo woo-hee frowned at the man’s full stomach. just imagining that the smell of this man might permeate the president’s room made her nauseous.

i’m going to kick him out.
