Absolute Threshold — Chapter 34. Blame

Weekly Chapter 1/5

This woman caused chaos in his mind. He should have killed her, but he could not. In case she was her subordinate, he would have b#aten her until she changed her behavior. But she was too soft for him to hit her. He preferred to hit her little b*ttom h#le with his m@nh#od, so he wouldn’t bre#k her. When he thought she had a child in that little body he felt such joy that his patience increased. He longed to experience the pr#vious evening once more, when she embr#ced him tightly ar#und his neck.

“I’m a crazy bastard.”

He snorted. He wanted to kick Song Hayoung’s subordinates, but he was also th!nking about this wom#n’s @ss. It seemed he had to build a wall for his s3xu#l d*sir3s.

Jumi was like a small stone falling on a calm surface.

Suddenly, the desire to l#ck it overcame him. When he saw her for the first time, at a dinner with President Kwon, he realized that her appearance was only a shell to defend herself. Her true essence was softer. He liked that.

Unable to control himself, he brought his h@nd up to her ch#st. A small body, a sm@ll h#le and a beating heart. He had never considered the word love until now.

But he didn’t hate her.

“I don’t hate you.”

“What?”

“Blame your parents, they made you that way.”

“……”

“And also your father because he was responsible for us meeting.”

“……”

“Don’t feel guilty.”

She didn’t know what to answer, so she buried her face in his chest.

She held back tears. Strangely, she resented her parents. It appeared that Yoongyo understood the reason she was unable to part with the child. She was the type of woman who would hold herself accountable if she were to lose her baby.

She touched her belly. When he saw her fingers wriggling, he remembered when he gr@bbed his m@nh#od last night. Her mouth dr#pped saliva. She ended up crying. His hands caressed around her eyes. Her small hands gripped his shirt.

“Please protect me. I know you can do it…”

“Then what will you do for me?”

“It’s your baby. There should be no conditions.”

“But a child is only an option for me.”

“……”

“Aren’t you supposed to beg me now?”

“…I have nothing to do for you. You already have everything.”

“I still want to see you some more.” He coldly murmured. “Remain close to me.”

“So you’ll protect the baby?”

“It’s an attractive offer.”

Confusion was evident in her expression, yet she gave an affirmative nod.

“What I hate most are lies. If you want to live, take responsibility for your words.”

She lost the will to run away.
