CHAPTER 72

Dae Hyun and Min Hye were fast asleep on the bed, with naked bodies brushing against each other under the duvet as they cuddled. They had taken a month off work as they wanted to spend some time together as newly wedded couples, so they slept off till late afternoon. Dae Hyun woke up and stared at her sleeping face till she woke up.

"What do you want to do today, my beautiful wife?" Dae Hyun asked and she gave him a cheesy smile.

"Beautiful wife? You're so cheesy." She said with a smiling face.

"I'm stating a fact, you're beautiful and you're my wife." Dae Hyun said with a serious expression and she chuckled.

"Then should I call you my sexy husband?" She asked rhetorically and Dae Hyun scoffed with a smirk on his face.

"Call me whatever you want, my beautiful wife." He said again and she chuckled.

"Dae Hyun." She called with a serious expression and he stared at her waiting for her to speak.

"Let's live somewhere else." She said and Dae Hyun's face became blank.

"Why?" He asked in a stern tone. She liked their peaceful and quiet life together and she knew Dae Hyun wouldn't change but she couldn't help but feel like Yoo Na was going to give them problems as she didn't seem like she was going to back out from her revenge and if she found out the truth, then things would be hectic.

"To start afresh." She said, which wasn't a practical lie.

"We'll move then, after I'm done taking care of things here." He said with a dark glint in his grey eyes and she knew exactly what he meant, until he got rid of them all.

"Alright, that's good." She said with a smile and Dae Hyun immediately rolled over her, slamming his lips on hers, making her forget about everything and everyone as they started a new day with erotic activities.

They enjoyed their newly wedded life throughout the one month, indoors and forgetting about the world and everyone in it as they enjoyed each other's company in comfortable silence along with mind blowing sexual activity.

........

Jisoo meekly followed In Ra into an empty classroom as she had ordered her.

"So, have you gotten any information?" In Ra asked and Jisoo meekly nodded her head in affirmation.

"Speak out for fuck's sake, don't you know I hate wasting my time?!" In Ra yelled at her as she shot her deadly glares and the trembling girl opened her mouth to speak immediately.

"She told me who her suspect was, but she said she wasn't too sure of it." Jisoo said and In Ra's eyes widened in curiosity.

"Then who is it?" She asked with impatience in her voice and Jisoo gulped before saying,

"The vice chairman of APEX, Mr Jang Dae Hyun." Jisoo said and In Ra's eyes gleamed darkly. How weird it was for Yoo Na to suspect someone like him but if she had him as a suspect, then he most certainly had piqued her interest in a suspicious way.

"I really don't know what to say, but it seems like Yoo Na has gotten mad...or maybe not, but she might be right, after all the real monsters either reveal their true nature publicly or in secret." In Ra murmured thoughtfully and a wicked grin tore through her face.

"Is that all she said or you're hiding more from me?" In Ra said as she shot her suspicious glares and Jisoo vigorously shook her head.

"No, she told me he was left handed just like the anonymous gift killer and he was enigmatic." Jisoo said truthfully and In Ra had a devilish smirk plastered on her face as she scoffed on the news.

"No fucking way! If he really is the anonymous gift killer, it'd be the end of her." In Ra said with a dark chuckle.

"Do you want to say something? Hurry! Spill it out!" In Ra said with a loud voice as she saw the girl open her mouth to inform her more.

"She said, she and Cha Eun will be able to find the killer soon through some footages that had arrived yesterday." Jisoo said with quivering lips and In Ra stared at her with curiosity filled face.

"Footages?" In Ra queried with creased brows wondering how they got such informations.

"Yes, they retrieved footages from the areas all the victims of the anonymous gift killer was last seen before they died, they're looking for a plate number that will appear in all the footages since they presumed the killer used a car, so they could catch him." Jisoo explained and In Ra nodded thoughtfully but she scoffed in disbelief.

"What a sly rat, the police wouldn't value such useless information because it wouldn't be a valid evidence even if the plate number appeared hundred times but to them, it's their jackpot because they aren't the police and they're planning to get rid of him? So unbelievable, even if they manage to catch the killer, I doubt they'd succeed with their ridiculous plans, two teenagers after a serial killer? How outrageous, they have never probably even killed a rat before." In Ra said with a mocking tone but Jisoo knew she was wrong, she knew Yoo Na wouldn't hesitate for a second to get rid of the killer, she had seen the cold emptiness in her eyes, they no longer held any warmth in them.

"Keep on doing such a good job, uhm? I'll reward you soon, I promise." In Ra said as she patted her head gently with a devilish grin on her face and Jisoo felt bad because she was revealing their secret to her and whatever thought was running through her wicked mind, wasn't good in any way, she knew personally how evil and cunning In Ra could be.

In Ra wouldn't sit back and watch Cha Eun endanger himself on a ridiculous quest with Yoo Na but first, before ruining their plans, she had something to do first, she had a deal to make with the devil.

In Ra chatted with Da Yeon in a secluded area.

"What is it In Ra?" Da Yeon asked and In Ra grinned wickedly.

"I want you to do something for me, but it must be discreet, do you understand?" In Ra ordered her and she couldn't do anything but obey.

"What is that?" Da Yeon asked warily, she knew whatever In Ra was plotting would be dangerous and she wasn't too sure she wanted to do anything that would risk her safety just to be friends with one of the wealthiest family in the country that came with it's perks.

"I want you to meet someone." In Ra said and Da Yeon had a confused expression on her face. In Ra knew she wouldn't understand so she had no choice but to tell her everything and when she explained her plan to her, Da Yeon's mouth parted in fear.

"No! I can't do that, what if he kills me too, huh? If the vice chairman is the anonymous gift killer, then I can't talk to him, you know how scared I get." Da Yeon said with a shaky voice and In Ra's face twisted in anger.

"Shut up! You're going to do everything I tell you to do and if you don't, I'll make sure your entire family wallows I poverty for the rest of their life, so if you don't want to live a life worse than Yoo Na's, you better do as I say! When you're more composed, you know where to find me, you only have a day left to make your decision." In Ra threatened and she walked away from her, leaving Da Yeon speechless. In Ra's family were more powerful and she knew her parents adored her, so one word from her to her parents and her family might really be doomed, she was stuck between the devil and the deep blue sea. She had two options but they were both horrible, what would be stopping the vice chairman from killing her if she told him she was aware of his identity and what would be stopping In Ra from fulfilling her promise if she refused to cooperate.

Tears rolled down her cheeks, it was either her knocking at death's door and taking her chances or suffering in the deepest depth of poverty. She would go with option one, she'd rather risk her life than go from riches to rags, it would be unbearably shameful for her.
