Bogum shake his head, looking how puffed Kai’s face from Jennie’s slap. “ Let it go. “


Kai sighed in exhaustion, he pressed the towel to his cheeks, dropping the cigarette to the ashtray.


“ You can find another one. Can’t you? “ Bogum continued, looking at his grim face. “ You’re always rational. But you seem spellbound since you met Jennie. “


Shaking his head, Kai looked at him, “ Bogu, loving her has exhaust all my passions. “ 


“ Then what’s the point of this? She doesn’t care anymore, what can you do? “ Bogum said, lifting his hand in the air, frustrated why Kai still pushing all buttons for this, if that has been what was happening all along. 


“ Sometimes, I think she was just struggling to tell me what makes her everything difficult for us. “ Kai said, sitting on a couch, he leaned to his knees and put his face to his palms. “ I even wanna follow her, to see how she is living now. But I didn’t, I’m afraid I will see the person she replaced me for. “


He rubbed his face frustratingly, before he ran a hand through his hair groaning. “ You don’t know how I feel, this feels like a helpless struggle! “


Sighing in twisted amusement, Bogum stated, “ You’re getting crazier. “


“ Hmm ~ Crazy about a heartless woman. “ Kai said in resignation.


Bogum just looked at him for a moment, contemplating if he should tell him what was in the back of his head yet. But after a while, he shake his head again, knowing he will regret this soon. “ My uncle just called to ask me about you and Jennie. He said, she really needs our project. “ He stated, making Kai jolt in his seat, giving him all his attention. “ It will affect her application for UCL. “


Kai straightened his posture, “ Tell him I can assign it to her, but there’s a condition. She must follow up all project details by herself. “


Bogum massaged his eyes in stress from his friend, groaning, “ After today, I’m sure, she won’t accept this. “ 


“ Then I can’t help her even though I want to. “ Kai said, tossing his head at the back of the couch in defeat.


Closing his eyes for a moment and took a deep breath before standing. He tossed the towel to the coffee table in front of him. 


“ I’ll go to Seoul University now. Call me if anything. “ The silver haired man said, as he passed by his bestfriend, patting him at his shoulder as a goodbye. 


Bogum could only look at his back, sighing. A gentle and proud boy, was forcibly changed into a cold and wicked man because of his love for Jennie Kim.

Jennie wake up, eyes wondering around their bedroom, when she caught the sight from the clock, she sprang up, alarmed. 

4pm?? I overselpt!

She said, she’ll be back for dinner. There wasn’t enough food left in the fridge.

Calm down, Jennie. It’s not too late, I got to buy some food now. 



Jennie hurriedly go to the bathroom and fix herself, change into somewhat presentable to go out.


She was already in their porch when she remembered she left her car at the law firm. She groaned, face palming as she think of a solution. There is no taxi nearby.


“ You’re the woman that hits the headlines before, right?? “ A unfamiliar voice came from the side of their yard, made Jennie turned to it’s way.


Before she could even get a glimpse of who it was, a rolled newspaper already thrown her face. Hissing, Jennie looked at the paper in her hands what was it, and saw the same picture she saw in the internet, with Jisoo carrying her.


“ The dress in the picture is the same as yours. It’s you, right?? “ A blonde young girl exclaimed at her, pointing at her accusingly. 


She seem like the younger daughter of a land developer living nearby. What the heck is she doing here?


“ My daddy said, this house belongs to Kim Jisoo. “ The younger woman said, her face was red in anger and irritation to Jennie. “ Tell me! What’s the relationship between you and her?? “


Jisoo? So intimate. Jennie thought as she smirked to herself, suddenly annoyed by the woman in front of her. She composed herself before looking at the younger coldly. “ Make a guess? “


The young blonde girl balled her hands in fist. Shaking in irritation, “ Shame on you! Don’t you know he’s married?? Why do you remain as his bed partner?? “
