"What are you planning actually?"
Jungkyu's question made Hyunji swallow hard.
Damn it, Hyunji cursed inwardly. It would be a big problem if she was suspected so soon. Her brain was thinking hard, thinking about what reasons she could say to make Jungkyu believe in her. "I really want to help you."
"Why?"
"I just ... want to."
Jungkyu's gaze changed. His expression turned flat. But soon, he laughed sarcastically. "Lie." He stood up from his position, then looked at Hyunji with a cold gaze that could not be defined.
Under Jungkyu's gaze, Hyunji could feel a chill run down her spine.
"Are you a paid person?"
Hyunji turned her face away.
"Answer me, Hyunji Kwon!" Jungkyu lowered his body, holding his weight with one hand that he placed on the back of Hyunji's chair. He looked at Hyunji intently. "A month ago, our first meeting at the Han River, what was all that-"
"Daejung Yoon is your father, right?"
