BIRDCAGE

THIRTY

"Okay...? Park Hana, what do you want from me? Why am I chained? Where is this place?" with all the questions Kai threw at her, she gave a sigh of irritation.

"I'll make this brief. Lee Felix betrayed me a couple of years ago. If he hadn't betrayed me, the man I loved would've been mine. The girl I hate took my rightful spot as his wife!" She says, while stirring the pot rather very aggressively, thinking of the people she want to crush so badly.

Kai blinked a couple of times, eyes furrowed as he sends the woman a weird judging look, "Okay?"

"I know you have your own problems with Lee Felix so how 'bout helping someone who has the same enemy as you?" Honestly, for Kai, her proposal wasn't bad but the problem is the background of this woman.

Was she really useful for him? How much can she contribute to destroying Felix? Juding from her state, she's not in the right mind to carry out a revenge plan for a mafia.

She's just driven by plain anger by the betrayal of Felix which will actually make her a great sacrificial lamb.

Kai chuckled, "Sure. What's your plan?"

Kai had judged Hana to be mentally unstable so he's going to use her as he see fit.

It's been a few days since I'm here in the hospital getting treated for my wounds, especially my wound in my palm. The doctor said it will leave a scar due to how the knife punctured my palm.

I could still feel the lingering hatred Kai had inflicted as he pushed the knife on my palm. Somehow his betrayal towards me hurts more than the knife.

I wanted to know the reason why he was so angry. I feel like half of my life is a lie because of the new side I've seen from Kai. He was always easy going, he was all smiles which annoyed the hell out of me, and I don't know... I guess I just really didn't expect that it was all a facade.

Now I can't even remember what he's like before he went maniac on me.

The hospital room opened, revealing felix with a bunch of food with him, all kinds of food. "Heh..." he laughed awkwardly as he held the food he bought, "I didn't really knew what you liked so I just bought everything I thought would suit to your taste." He smiled.

I gave him a smile and pat my bed, "I'm still a bit full, you can eat with me." 

He sat on the bed and pouted. I titled my head in confusion, why was he so down? He sighed as he looked at the food he bought, "I just realized that I don't really know much about you, well, the real you after someone deceived me." he rolls his eyes.

The attitude this guy has...

I snorted, "Okay then... let's start from the very beginning, a proper introduction." I cleared my throat, straighten my back, and reached out my hand towards him.

"Hi, I'm Ri Luna. Born in the slums of North Korea, turning 21 in February 1. I don't know who my father is and I have little memory of my mother maybe it's also because of the excessive torture they did to me back when I was young when I was fooled and captured in an auction at North Korea. An agent — well, I guess an ex-agent at the secret organization Elite and your prisoner." I smiled.

Felix listened, remembering every information I gave him. "You were tortured? Is it too late now for me to say that I'll make them pay?" He tilts his head to the side.

I chuckled, "You're too late. That was years ago when I was still 7. Kai was the one who saved me because of that I thought I owed him my life..." I say, looking down.

"If I hadn't met you, I would have let him kill me. After all, my life would be the only price to pay when he saved me from that hell, right?" I looked at Felix. He had his eyebrows furrowed.
