Ch 185:

(Through the crack in the door, I saw him—him, the person.)

(So what did you do?)

(Um, I covered his face with a cloth.)

(Who did?)

(Min Seong-cheol.)

The brothers stood side by side in front of the surveillance camera screen, silently observing Baek Seo-jun interrogating the suspect.

"Why were you sitting there when you could see from here?"

"When he saw me, he seemed to weaken."

"Don't go in there again."

Yu Yeon-seo did not respond and focused on the screen. Yu Eun-ho wasn't really expecting an answer. Baek Seo-jun was displeased, but they needed to know the full story behind the incident.

In particular, Yu Yeon-seo had kept the truth of the incident in him heart for a long time, even though he had an inkling of what happened. He felt she needed to understand in detail how they planned the crime to be compensated for the time lost.

Upon discovering that Lee Hee-seo was alone in the annex, the three of them immediately stormed into the room where she was. Min Seong-cheol then covered Lee Hee-seo's view and said:

[Hello, darling?]

Baek Seo-jun grimaced in disgust. That disgusting bastard... He soon regained his composure and continued questioning.

(If your vision was suddenly blocked and you heard such chilling words, wouldn't he have reacted?)

(Y-Yes, he would have.)

Naturally, Lee Hee-seo resisted. She reportedly screamed loudly and struggled, alerting the mansion's staff. Yang Hong-sik and Park Kyung-won restrained her and made her sit in a chair, removing the cloth to face Min Seong-cheol.

[Don't hold her too tightly. If she gets bruised, it'll be a problem.]

[You, you stalker...!]

Lee Hee-seo recognized Min Seong-cheol immediately. He was the stalker who had tormented her before marriage. Even when she encountered him at the police station, he had shamelessly smiled.

The scar on Min Seong-cheol's ear was a wound inflicted by Lee Hee-seo during her resistance. Despite bleeding, Min Seong-cheol distorted the wound as proof of his love.

[I knew you'd remember me, darling.]

[Is there no one, no one else?!]

[Shh... you need to be quiet. It's been a long time since we had such a touching reunion.]

Min Seong-cheol gently covered Lee Hee-seo's mouth. But she resisted. She bit Min Seong-cheol's hand and screamed for someone to notice.

(If this continued, there was a risk of being discovered. What did you do?)

(Outside, she said she saw a, a child.)

(Min Seong-cheol?)

When Yang Hong-sik nodded slightly, Yu Eun-ho frowned. Did they threaten her with a child?

(He said if she didn't stay quiet, he would take her child.)

(He would take him? Not kill him?)

(That's... it was a bit strange.)

Yang Hong-sik stammered, recounting Min Seong-cheol's exact words from that time.

[Be careful. What if something happens to our child?]
