Bwooong…
“…….”
In the car heading to the press conference hall, Ha Ye-rin closed her eyes for a moment, looking tired.
“…….”
“…….”
Since neither Sang-gu, who was driving, nor Lee Kim-jang, the lawyer, said anything, only silence filled the air.
But soon, someone broke that silence…
“…Ye-rin.”
“Yes, Oppa.”
…It was Sang-gu.
After the incident with MS Planning, the group that suffered the most damage was Brotherhood Planning.
Every day, hundreds of complaint calls flooded the office, and online, they were branded as a malicious company.
More importantly, Kang Hyung-man, someone who was like a benefactor to Brotherhood Planning, was taken by the police.
In such a dire situation, it was frustrating for Sang-gu, the backbone of Brotherhood Planning, to hear Kang Hyung-man say he would take all the blame.
And…
He couldn’t help but feel a bit resentful towards Ye-rin for not immediately denying MS Planning and the claims made by Ye-rin’s parents.
From Sang-gu’s perspective, Ye-rin’s parents were truly unreasonable.
They made their young daughter do all the housework and earn living expenses.
As soon as Ye-rin won in Na Ah Ah, they blocked her path for their own ambitions.
On the other hand, what about Brotherhood Planning?
Ye-rin was their first trainee, and having seen her face for a long time, the organization’s members had secretly thought of her as a younger sister.
Thus, Brotherhood Planning treated her shockingly well, giving her chances to appear in Na Ah Ah, and… also offered her emotional support as fellow humans.
…Even though it was a situation where anyone could clearly side with Brotherhood Planning rather than her parents.
It was unavoidable for Sang-gu to feel a little bitter at Ye-rin for not reacting at all while Brotherhood Planning was suffering.
However, upon seeing Ye-rin today at the rookies’ lodging, Sang-gu’s feelings vanished.
‘…Oppa Sang-gu.’
…He had seen many faces like this while working in debt collection.
Faces with no sadness, no joy… and nothing at all.
Expressions of someone who had given up everything.
Typically, when Sang-gu saw a debtor with such a face, he would skip collecting on that day.
But now, Ye-rin wore that kind of face.
Thus, Sang-gu couldn’t help but ask.
“…Are you okay, Ye-rin?”
“…Yes?”
“Your expression… doesn’t look good.”
At Sang-gu’s question, Ye-rin gave a mechanical smile and replied.
“I’m fine, Oppa. Please don’t worry too much. I won’t be a burden to Brotherhood Planning anymore.”
“……”
