Chapter 1040: This is me Part 16

TOH

Rumors that paint Sumire in a negative light, that undermine all her hard work in the underworld. The one that stood out to him were the ones that say she has gotten weaker. 'Now is the time to attack her and get back at her.' Despite the strict security measures he has made. The security guards have alerted him on more than one occasion of half dead bodies near the hospital grounds. It didn't take him long to realize that Sumire had been sneaking out behind his back.

When he confronted her about it, Sumire didn't bother hiding it from him. 

'I don't want you to stain your hands for me Toh. But even more than that I want to protect you.'

If he didn't love her before, he did now, Nobody has ever treated him as well as Sumire. 

Sumire covers her mouth with her sleeve and laughs, "I just heard your thoughts."
