Chapter 23: Butterfly Effect
"I want you, Hyung."
Their eyes met, and Cha Eui-jae forced a smile. What? An unknown person? No one knows I exist? Cha Eui-jae recalled the educational comics featuring caricatures of himself and the documentaries he had glimpsed. There couldn't be anyone as famous as him, this guy....
"A skilled person who doesn't belong anywhere and is not known to the public. The fewer people who know, the better."
"..."
"Is that too demanding?"
Lee Sa-young silently moved, slowly circling around Cha Eui-jae. It felt like a snake slithering through the underbrush.
"I was about to give up finding the right person, but then you showed up."
"..."
"Like destiny."
"Are you a believer in fate?"
"I never believed in such nonsense, but now I'm thinking of starting."
Suddenly, Lee Sa-young was right behind Cha Eui-jae, bending slightly at the waist.
