Chapter 8.6
Kim Soyoung, having changed into comfortable clothes, misunderstood Haewon's intense gaze and awkwardly rolled her eyes. As expected, she didn't remember him from the hotel.
Hyun Woojin, the one Haewon had been anxiously waiting for, finally arrived. As he entered, he greeted as usual.
"I'm here."
"Ah, Prosecutor Hyun, welcome."
"Is Oppa here?"
At that moment, she definitely called him "Woojin-ssi." She greeted him naturally, calling him "Oppa." He turned toward the inner part of the room and, upon seeing Haewon, stopped in his tracks for a brief moment, before continuing as if nothing had happened.
He sat next to Kim Soyoung. Haewon swallowed the taste of blood in his mouth, and with that bitterness, he bowed his head to him.
"Hello, Senior."
Haewon slowly lifted his head, staring deeply into Hyun Woojin’s eyes, which were clearly distant and unfocused.
"...What’s going on?"
"Madam invited me for dinner."
Haewon answered his question. Seok Hwa interjected.
