I Became a Villain's Hero [Complete]

Chapter 75: Can't Run Away (1)

Song Soo-yeon couldn't breathe.

"...You took good photos, right...?"

She couldn't respond to Jung-gyeom's question.

Jung-gyeom was the reason she was alive.

Without him, she would have left this world already.

He was the first to teach her human warmth, to teach her love.

Sometimes he appeared naive, foolish, or nerdy, but he also possessed a reliability like a strong pillar within him.

And now, he was trembling and crying.

These were not ordinary tears.

They were tears that flowed despite his efforts to hold them back, revealed through the trembling of his whole body.

It was the first time she had seen him like this.

And to realize that she was the one who had caused these emotions...

The realization that she had stabbed the most precious person to her was unbearably painful.

Song Soo-yeon felt a tearing pain.

She had to see what she had destroyed with her own hands.

The place she called home, the restaurant, was gone.

She had taken away Jung-gyeom's treasure.

She already knew what this restaurant meant to him.

She had seen him smiling as he cleaned the same spot over and over.

She knew the cute fact that he sometimes secretly talked to the restaurant.

The backlash was immense.

A tear streamed down Song Soo-yeon's shock-widened eyes.

"...Haah... Haah..."

She really couldn't breathe.

What had she done?

"...You took good photos, yeah...?"

He asked again.

Song Soo-yeon, still in shock, knew.

She had to answer.

"...Yes... I took good photos. But... the restaurant..."

If he found out that she was in the villain alliance that was responsible for destroying the restaurant, what would he say?

Would even someone as kind as him turn cold and tell her to go away, never wanting to see her again?

"...Haah... Haah..."

Just imagining it made her feel like the world was crumbling.

Without realizing it, Song Soo-yeon hugged Jung-gyeom tightly.

-Squeeze!

And she clenched his clothes in her fists.

The more she imagined him pushing her away, the tighter she hugged him.

Jung-gyeom nodded to Song Soo-yeon's answer, then wrapped his arms around her from behind, embracing her.

The two, having lost a space filled with their memories, comforted each other.

However, Song Soo-yeon felt guilty.

She knew all too well that she was the root cause of everything.

The primary cause was Tryno, but the plan itself started from Song Soo-yeon.
