Chapter 20 - Dealing with the step-family [1]

Inserting the key into the hole, she turned it and opened the door to the house. The boss at her second job was not as pleasant as the one in her first job, but he was bearable.

Although he had a scowl on his face for most of the time, Jiwoo was able to work throughout the night for he did not make any attempt to talk to her.

After a long period of time, she had worked his hard, and as she stretched her muscles, she stepped into the room before her.

One advantage of being this kind was that tiredness did not come over her easily, and she still found herself being somewhat energetic.

Her senses tingled at that moment, and she had an inkling that trouble awaited for her inside the apartment.

Turning her back, Jiwoo closed the door and was about to lock it with the key when she felt something coming in her way— thanks to her sharp senses. 

Instantly, she reached and jumped away from that position. A glass crashed against the wall, breaking into multiple number of pieces.

One of the glass pierced scratched against her cheek, creating a small cut, and blood oozed out of it. Although a sharp pain went through her cheek, the wound healed within a second.

Extending her hand towards her cheek, Jiwoo wiped away the remnants of the blood, and turning her back on the door, she harshly glared at the one who directed that glass towards her. 

"What's wrong with you all!?" she exclaimed with anger noticeable in her tone. 

In front of her stood Shin Eunha and Eunhye along with their mother. Eunha and Eunhye had their hands folded over their chest while their mother had her hand clenched into a tight fist. A glower was let out by them towards her.

Jiwoo then took a step forward, and before anyone of them could say anything, a dangerous glint appeared in her eyes— capable of causing chill to go down their back. 

"This time, I will be sparing you, but next time around, don't think things will be going that smoothly for you," she threatened, appearing to look completely vicious.

Not having any mood to deal with any one of their games, she walked towards her room. However, before she could open the door and enter into the room, a shout caused her to halt in her actions.

"Stop! Where do you think you are going, You Bitch!?" the middle-aged woman yelled.

Titling her head back, Jiwoo showed a grim countenance to them and voiced out, "Was yesterday's punch not enough? Do you want to go against me once more?"

Thinking that yesterday was merely a lucky day for Jiwoo, the middle-aged woman had no fear on her face and said, "Since you don't know what mistake you have done, I think you need to be punished until you know about them."

"Can you lower down the shrill in your voice, Ugly Lady? It really hurts my ear," Jiwoo vocalised, "About punishment, do you really think you have what it takes to punish me? Aren't you dreaming way too much, Ahjumma?"
