Being a bodyguard seems to be a very responsible and a boring job, isn't it? And so thinks Mirae. But things get complicated for her when she becomes the bodyguard of, the famous actor and singer, Choi San and starts to fall for him.
Will she really...
"I already took care of the CCTV cameras around the area," I said. "So no need to worry about that."
"You always do your job very well," Hyunwoo said, smirking. "I'll pay you well for this."
"Is it necessary to drag Kang Mirae into it? You just want your revenge from Choi San then why are you dragging innocent people like her into this?"
"...To easily win against your enemy, you have to know his weakness. Isn't it?" He leaned back on his chair, crossing his legs. "Kang Mirae is that weakness of him. And knowing the weakness, we can surely win. Don't you think so?"
"But still–"
"Yah, Bong Jaehyun!... Just do what I tell you to do. No need to think much about other things. I'll take care of them."
I slightly sighed. "Yes, I got it."
I wonder what he's thinking of doing next...

San's POV
"What?!" I said, a little shocked.
"Mian. I didn't tell you about joining Lee Hyunwoo earlier," Mirae said.
"Lee Hyunwoo can go to any extent. You don't even know how dangerous it is... No! I can't let you do this!"
"San-ah, think about it carefully. It's the only way to bring his real face in front of public..."
"But still..."
"It's the only way to get justice for your mom." I sighed.
I wanted to take revenge for my mom but couldn't and now I have a chance. Should use it?
"If he has done that to your mom, he can do it again with someone else," she said. "And we can't let that happen. We can't let him hurt the innocent people."
I breathed out heavily. "...Will you be able to do it?"
She nodded. "I'll try my best. Trust me." She gave me an assuring smile.
I know it's very dangerous to let her do it but I don't have any other options. Lee Hyunwoo deserves to be behind the bars.
"...Does anyone else knows about it?"
"Only Seonghwa oppa... And, he was the one who told me about your mom."
"I see..."
"But why does Lee Hyunwoo hate you so much?"
"I don't know either... We were good friends back then but then he suddenly grew apart. He started to behave a little weird since then."
What could be the reason?...

[The next day...]
Me and Mirae had just finished breakfast when she got a call.
"It's Lee Hyunwoo," she said, showing me her phone.
"Answer it. Put it on speaker."
She nodded and did as I said. "Hello?"
"Kang Mirae-ssi, how have you been?"
"Ah, I'm just fine."
"But you may not be later."
"What?"
"Nevermind... Choi San hasn't suspected you, right?"
She glanced at me before speaking. "No, he hasn't."
"Good then... I have another task for you. So come to my cabin and I'll let you know the details."
"Okay." He ended the call.

Mirae's POV
"What should I do?" I said, looking at San.
"Go to him for now," San said. "And make sure he doesn't get a hint that I already know about it."
"Hm." I nodded and stood up.
I was about to walk away when he suddenly pulled me into his arms. He hugged me tightly, resting his head on the crook of my neck.
"Be careful..." he said, still hugging me.
"Don't worry." I patted his back and he pulled back. "I'll be fine."
"And thank you so much."
I'll surely bring the real face of Lee Hyunwoo in front of public... I promise you, San.
I gave him a smile and turned on my heels to walk away.

"What do you want me to do?" I said. I was now at Lee Hyunwoo's cabin where he sat at his desk.
"This is the last and most important task you have to do."
"What is it?"
He leaned to the front, resting his hands on the table. "...Kill Choi San."
"What?"
"Yeah... Your last task is to kill him. You can easily do it, right?"
I knew he would say something like that...
"But you promised you won't harm him in any way."
"Promises are meant to be broken. I was thinking of getting rid of him since the beginning."
What should I do now?...
"Did you get that present yesterday?" he said.
"Present?" I looked at him in confusion. "What do you mean?"
"How's your mom, Mrs. Kim Dayoung? Is she doing fine now?" My eyes widened on hearing that.
How did he know?...
"Why are you so shocked, Kang Mirae-ssi? I was just asking. I heard she got into an accident."
"How did you...?"
He laughed a bit. "How did I know?... I know everything about you." His expressions quickly changed from relaxed to a serious one. "And about the accident... I was behind it."
I was wrong to take him so lightly. Will I be okay?...
To be continued...
