The rain had stopped, leaving a crisp chill in the air as Minji prepared for her final confrontation with Choi Yeonjun. She had spent the last few days in a state of heightened alert, the threat of exposure looming over her like a dark cloud. She had to finish what she started; there was no turning back now.

As she watched Yeonjun from a distance, Minji felt a mix of fear and excitement. The man was notorious for his ruthless business practices, but he was also intelligent, and Minji knew she had to outsmart him. She had devised a plan that required precision and careful execution.

After weeks of stalking him, Minji finally found the right moment. Yeonjun had been invited to a lavish party at a high-end hotel, a perfect setting for her to strike. Dressed in an elegant black dress, Minji blended in with the crowd, her heart racing with anticipation.

The party was in full swing, the air thick with laughter and the clinking of glasses. Minji moved through the throng, scanning the room for Yeonjun. When she spotted him, he was surrounded by admirers, his charisma radiating as he held court.

Taking a deep breath, Minji approached him, her heart pounding. "Mr. Choi," she said, forcing a smile. "May I have a moment of your time?"

Yeonjun turned, his expression shifting from surprise to intrigue. "Of course," he replied, his eyes appraising her as she led him away from the crowd.

Once they were in a quieter corner, Minji felt the tension crackle in the air. "I have something important to discuss," she said, her voice low and steady.

Yeonjun leaned in, a smirk playing on his lips. "I'm all ears."

But before he could react, Minji drew the knife from her purse, the blade glinting in the soft light. "This is for Hanni," she whispered, plunging the knife into his side.

Yeonjun gasped, eyes widening in shock as he stumbled back, blood spilling onto the floor. Minji felt a rush of power surge through her, a dark satisfaction that coursed through her veins. But it was quickly overshadowed by the gravity of her actions.

As she stepped back, the chaos of the party erupted around her, screams filling the air as people scrambled to escape. Minji melted into the shadows, her heart racing as she navigated through the panicked crowd.

With Yeonjun dead, Minji felt a fleeting sense of accomplishment. She had avenged Hanni, but at what cost? The darkness that enveloped her deepened, a chilling reminder that she could never escape the consequences of her choices.
