Chapter 813: PAID

A small bead rolled and dropped with a soft thud.

It felt as if something had fallen into place inside me.

“Madam Mi doesn’t hate us.”

That statement felt strangely out of place.

Could that really be true?

I had lived my entire life certain that Madam Mi resented and despised me.

Otherwise, none of it made any sense.

‘If not, then how could she act that way?’

There were far more reasons to hate me than to like me.

There were far more reasons to push me away than to accept me.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

So, I couldn’t understand.

“She doesn’t hate me? How can you be so sure?”

I asked Gu Ryunghwa, unable to grasp how she could be so certain of Madam Mi’s feelings.

Gu Ryunghwa tilted her head with a somewhat baffled expression and said,

“Brother. Do you really not get it?”

“Get what?”

“How can you not know...? Seriously, I feel bad for the girls.”

“Stop messing around and explain properly.”

“Explain? It’s obvious you’re the only one who doesn’t know.”

Gu Ryunghwa frowned deeply.

She opened her mouth as if she was going to elaborate, but then…

“…Never mind.”

“What?”

“I’m not telling you.”

“What’s with starting a conversation and then just dropping it? That’s low.”

“Like you have room to talk. You said you’d come, but you didn’t. I heard you even told Yung Pung you’d visit him. Said it yourself, didn’t you? Then you didn’t show up. And now you’re calling me low?”
