I Became a Villain's Hero [Complete]

Chapter 71: Doubt (4)

Song Soo-yeon was unable to make even the slightest movement.

Her mind went blank, and all the energy drained from her body.

She had nothing.

Except for Jung-gyeom.

But now, he had become Solace's.

The one who had brought light into her world now belonged to another woman.

His warmth, his smile, his tender heart. Now, they had an owner.

She wasn't even angry.

The overwhelming pain in her heart made it impossible for her to be angry.

She just asked weakly,

"Since when?"

Since when did Jung-gyeom give her love?

Since when had he been secretly whispering love to her behind her back?

Was that the reason he was so focused on the phone earlier?

Because she was a lower priority than Min-Bom?

She hated it.

She hated it so much.

She couldn't accept that she wasn't Jung-gyeom's first.

Min-Bom tilted her head at her reaction.

"Aren't you overreacting, Soo-yeon...?"

How could she not be surprised? How could she not be flustered?

Min-Bom had no idea what Jung-gyeom meant to Song Soo-yeon.

It just made her feel even more pathetic.

"I didn't expect this kind of reaction..."

"..."

Seeing Song Soo-yeon's serious face, Min-Bom awkwardly scratched her head.

"It's April Fool's Day."

"Ah."

Relief washed over her like waking from a terrible nightmare, her face suddenly flushing with heat.

Cold sweat seeped out of her, and her heart, which had stopped, began to beat strongly again.

"..."

"..."

At the same time, she felt an indescribable anger.

The fact that she had been fooled by such a prank irritated her.

Seeing Song Soo-yeon not laughing at all, Min-Bom reached out.

Then, she slowly apologized while holding Song Soo-yeon's wrist.

"I'm sorry, it wasn't-"

-Thwack!

Song Soo-yeon, irritated, slapped away her hand.

"Don't ever play that kind of prank again."

And then she warned her.

As expected, she and Min-Bom were incompatible. They simply didn't match.

Min-Bom, taken aback, stiffened, and her expression dried up.

She showed an expression she had never shown to Jung-gyeom.

After taking a few shallow breaths, she finally asked.

"Soo-yeon, isn't that too much?"

"What do you mean?"

"Why are you so angry, exactly?"

"Do I look like I'm angry?"

"It was just a joke...!"
