Chapter 801: LT Amusement Park (1)
"Excessive retaliation always backfires."
I knew all too well that Jung Jin-Ah had done something wrong. However, she had already knelt down and apologized. On top of that, her parents had apologized too. She was even transferring to a regular high school.
If we went as far as pressing charges and pushing this to the bitter end like Go Eun-Seo suggested, we might have to face consequences of our own. It was like the saying goes—when a mouse is cornered, it bites the cat.
Still, Go Eun-Seo tilted her head, not understanding. "Jung Jin-Ah was the one at fault, so why would we pay the price? Isn't it fair to give back what we got?"
"No. Filing a report with the police is as far as we go. Nothing beyond that."
"What? That makes no sense. Then you're saying we can't even expose online that Jung Jin-Ah was the hater?"
Go Eun-Seo's dad was an assemblyman and her mom a top actress. She had been raised with every privilege, and because of that, she had gone through life without knowing fear. When she got upset, she vented. When she was annoyed, she snapped.
Even after she became an idol before the regression, she would strike back hard if someone wronged her even slightly. With online haters, she would trample them through a law firm without hesitation.
As a result, she got labeled as 'the celebrity who sues every other day.' It was a deadly tag for a celebrity whose entire image mattered.
I didn't want Go Eun-Seo to become that kind of person in this life, so I calmly tried to reason with her. After all, her parents were never going to teach her these things.
"Then let me ask you the opposite. What if we did what you said and publicly exposed online that the hater was Jung Jin-Ah, a second-year at Hanil Arts High School? What would happen then?"
I purposely phrased it so Go Eun-Seo would think for herself.
