Even though she tried to hold it back, her emotions bled through, making her words spill out faster. Junyoung met Seungwoon’s wide-eyed gaze head-on. The corners of her eyes curved faintly.

“Seungwoon. Even if I had caught you rolling around in bed with Jang Sera, aside from a physiological sense of disgust, I wouldn’t have felt anything.”

The easygoing charm Seungwoon usually exuded had long since crumbled. Junyoung whispered sweetly.

“It’s not that I simply don’t like you. I can’t forgive you.”

A breath, condensed as if drawn from deep within, escaped Seungwoon’s lips as he clenched his fist.

“All because of that? Just because I didn’t tell you what Kwon Beomjin said? He was going to disappear anyway! He was never coming back! Over something so insignificant…!”@@novelbin@@

“To me, it wasn’t insignificant.”

Junyoung cut him off coldly.

“If you’d told me back then, maybe I would’ve let it go sooner. Maybe I wouldn’t have flinched at seeing similar names. Maybe I wouldn’t have compulsively chased after people with similar builds and similar clothes, just to check their faces. You have no idea what kind of hell it is to know absolutely nothing.”

A heavy silence filled the space. Seungwoon gradually lowered his head, and Junyoung followed suit, driving the final nail in.

“Because of you, Kwon Beomjin was never laid to rest inside me in any way. He’s stayed alive in my mind, clear as day. I can’t forgive you, but I’ll say this much—thank you. Because now, I’ve met him again.”

A hollow laugh slipped through Seungwoon’s lips. Then he let out a louder one, distorted and bitter, his eyes locking onto Junyoung’s. His pupils glistened, but the weight of his gaze felt like a stone.

His voice, low and guttural, scraped out from between his clenched teeth.

“You’ll never work out with that bastard. Sure, I get it. You need time. It’s been a while, so you’re probably caught up in the moment. I bet you’re already thinking about spreading your legs for him in your underwear.”
