Corrupted Souls (Laws of attraction / Kinnporsche / Kimchay)

Chapter 23

Arm got into the club. He sneakily reached Porchay, who had already given up smacking some common sense in his older brother's head and was just hiding in a corner. Charn, on the other hand, was by the counter, sipping a drink and enjoying the show. The bodyguard gently grabbed Porchay's hand and led him out of the building. As they were outside, he noticed that Kim was standing by the car door of the driver seat and he had just finished a phone call.

"Arm, you will wait here. I've just called Pol, he should arrive here in a few minutes with the minivan. This is what you will do: you will take the lawyer, his husband and that person with a single braincell that is supposed to be my brother in law and you will take them to the mansion" Kim ordered. He opened the passenger's seat car door to let Porchay in, he closed it and then turned back to Arm.

"You can let them fight for a while, just make sure they don't get too wounded or anything like that. Remember to tell Rose to write down a list of all the damages in the club, assure her that I will pay as soon as I receive the list. See you later" Kim added and got into the car.

"Are you mad at me?" Porchay asked after Kim started driving. He wasn't looking at him, he was holding his hands between his knees, his face pointed downwards, fearing an evil glare from his husband.

"I don't know, I guess you did nothing that could make me mad at you, am I right, Porchay?"

"I told him the truth... I secretly got out of the mansion without your permission... I got attacked when you explicitly told me that it could happen... don't make me continue this list" Porchay said without hiding his regret for the decisions of that evening.

"You are not a boy anymore, you're a man. You don't need my permission to get out of our house. And if you fear that I may tell you -I told you- because two henchmen of the Yakuza attacked you... well, I'm not going to do that" Kim replied coldly.

"Are you sure?"

"However... I sincerely hope that you will stop calling your version of the story -the truth-. I've said the truth, I killed a man who attacked me, I can't see a lie in it, and I hope that you will soon do the same" Kim added.

"How can I do that? I killed him! It was me! I stabbed him..."

Kim stopped the car. He took several deep breaths to calm himself down, but as Porchay tried to pat his shoulder, Kim couldn't take it anymore and started shouting.

"Stop it! You have to stop it! I can't listen to that anymore! I know it... you killed that asshole, so what? He deserved it. He fucking deserved that! What's the matter if it is you or me to go to face the judge, huh? They will tell us that it was legitimate defense and that's it. I'm not taking any risk by claiming that I did that..."

"But Kim..."

"I beg of you, Porchay, let me do this... I feel so bad for it, it is only because of me that all of this mess happened. I wasn't able to protect you that night, so let me do it now! Please..."
