Chapter 78: This gave him courage

Peri decided on the fabricated story he came up with in his head.

"It's not my fault, okay?" He started. "I couldn't stand getting approached by a guy just for the sake of sponsorship." He said, and Dongwoo's eyes widened.

Just as he feared. He was going to twist it to make him look like the villain. He shuddered.

"So, you're saying this young man approached you for 'sponsorship'?" Haejoo asked and Peri nodded.

He shrugged and sighed.

"It's happening a lot these days but I can't believe I'd get approached by a guy. It's disgusting."

People started talking. They started judging and Dongwoo started shaking. He gripped Seojin's hand with his head down and his eyes turning hollow.

"If what you say is true," Haejoo continued. "Why didn't you calmly refuse him? You claim he approached you for sponsorship, wasn't it too much to ruin his face?"
