Ch 207:
"Were you that worried?"
After living for a few years since 2018, I've become accustomed to my family's affection, but the interest from acquaintances is still somewhat unfamiliar. This is because, when past memories suddenly resurface, most people who approached me had done so based on my background.
"Strange."
From what I've felt so far, these people will probably continue to worry about me and feel sorry for me until I assure them that I'm genuinely okay. It's probably best to let them know that there's no need to worry excessively.
As Lee Han-gyeol regretted bringing it up, Yoo Yeon-seo shrugged.
"Alright. Let's clear things up and move on. It's true that I've had doubts for a while."
With that, he glanced at Lee Seon-ja.
"Since when?"
"It's been a while. I couldn't remember it for a moment, but then it suddenly came back to me. Around the time of my debut?"
Some people who had been listening intently thought, "So, was Yoo Yeon-seo's difficult personality due to that?"
"I found out while investigating that there was a persistent stalker following us, and considering the mansion's security was thorough, I wondered why there wasn't any evidence left behind. That led me to suspect an insider or a relative."
When he mentioned that he had been secretly pursuing the perpetrator to avoid arousing suspicion among relatives, someone could be heard swallowing nervously.
"Then why did the stalker target our old residence..."
"They fixated on me in addition to my mom."
"Ugh, that's creepy."
Hhe omitted unnecessary details and roughly explained the situation. Surprisingly, he didn't have much of a problem speaking about it. The people were trustworthy, and no one had the guts to betray Yoo Yeon-seo.
"I wasn't investigating alone; I had some help. So, well, it was caught and dealt with properly."
Since this information was somewhat public through the media, it wasn't a big deal. More importantly, speaking about it felt like a burden that had been lifted from her chest. Was it because of the alcohol?
"So, I'm actually feeling good that the perpetrator was caught. It's a relief."
"Really?"
"It's been over 20 years waiting for this. If we hadn't caught the perpetrator? That would have been truly pitiful."
Yoo Yeon-seo paused to sip some water. Even his calm demeanor as he spoke seemed to convey his feelings.
"But it seems like others don't think the same way."
It felt like the reaction was akin to a comment from someone who didn't want to see me unhappy. I know that being a celebrity often means being judged by others' standards or for things not intended, but I'm actually okay.
"I'm not returning quickly; I'm doing it because I can. So, let's agree not to talk about that matter after today."
As he made eye contact, the people nodded or exhaled softly.
"Anyway, I'm glad things worked out."
"Yeah, if you say so..."
"Don't be too uncomfortable. It's all out of affection for you."
