Sojin was shocked to her very core. She staggered backwards and almost fell but Jinyoung caught her. The man she wanted to keep Jinhyun away from was standing right beside him, embracing him like an old friend. Her hands were trembling in fear while her heart beat fast at the sight of the man who had robbed her of everything.
"Why is that man there?" She demanded. "Why...why is he hugging my son?"
"Son?" Jinyoung echoed. Sojin suddenly realized her folly. She had slipped up and scrambled to rectify her mistake.
"I meant, he's like a son to me," she lied. "He's the Idol King. All mothers would like a son like him."
Jinyoung stared at her for a moment and sighed. "Ms. Lim," he began. "Listen to me very carefully. Heo Taehyun is looking for you. He's obsessed with finding you and your son."
