Chapter 62. I Need You (3)

“Minhae is right, mom. I don’t have the power to change who the company sponsors. If I had acted behind the scenes to do so, I’d be in serious trouble if I was caught. I would definitely be fired.”

Minkyung made the cut-throat gesture, and immediately her mother’s eyes widened.

“Oh my, then you should never get involved in that.”

“No, I won’t. Since they received sponsorship, their records have improved a lot. If they perform well in the national team selection tryout that will be held soon, TK Electronics will be satisfied.”

“Still, there is too much criticism because their grades are not the best.”

“Sponsors don’t just look at students’ grades, they also look for star potential. Our twins are handsome, that must have helped them get the sponsorship.”

“They got that from their father. They look like real actors…”

Her mother smiled widely. Although Minkyung wasn’t sure if their appearance was on par with that of the ‘actors’, in her eyes, the twins had a superior appearance to other athletes, not only in their faces but also in their physiques.

“At first, I resented my uncle. He encouraged the twins to ice skate and had us transfer them to Gyeonggi-do Province to attend middle school there. We didn’t have many resources. Now we finally see some light.”

The reason the twins began their career as athletes was because their uncle, who was the coach of the ice skating team at a school there, noticed their talent from a very early age and strongly insisted on it.

“Minkyung, you’ve supported them so much. If you had saved all that money from your job…”

“I can save from now on.”

Minkyung said cheerfully.

“I’ll go work out.”

“Okay, sister. Exercise well.”

Minhae was afraid that she would ask him to come with her, so he quickly waved his hand. He hated exercise. Minkyung waved back as she opened the door and walked out.

Once outside the store, Minkyung turned around for a moment and looked at the building. The morning sunlight shone on Kang’s Makguksu sign. Minkyung put her hand on her forehead like a visor and stared at the sign for a long time.

‘Kang’s Makguksu, Kang’s eldest sibling, Kang Minkyung…’

Suddenly, Lee-Seob’s family mansion came to her mind. The tall, stately gate, the garden and the main house beyond the spacious entrance. The faint scent of wood in the air and the long corridors. Freshly baked bread and strong coffee. The serene and elegant ma’am who looked at her.

Every time she thought of Lee-Seob, her heart raced. Unable to control it. Over the past week she had tried hard to appease it. Even at home, Minkyung couldn’t sleep well last night. Memories of how she had acted these past few days in front of Lee-Seob, as if nothing had happened between them, flooded back to her.

When she woke up in the middle of the night and sat up in bed with her arms around her knees, she remembered the wild kisses, and the skinship with her body pressed against his.

His warm breath on her neck as he caressed her br*asts. When he s*cked them hard, Minkyung felt her soul leave her body.
