章 129: JUST FOR A WHILE

"MOM, are you really alright?" Wook, who was in the passenger seat, asked his mother who was currently driving the car. "Why is the man who was supposed to be your guard covered in blood?"

He could tell that his mother looked spooked.

Hence, he figured out that something strange had happened.

Even Hong Rowoon and Kang Danbi– who were in the backseat– looked curious since their boss didn't have time to explain to them.

"We were attacked by what seemed to be… hitmen."

Wook's eyes widened because of his mother's revelation. "Hitmen?"

It made sense, though.

The man, Kim Seojun, was covered in blood.

[Ghosts don't have blood.]

"You must have been scared, Mom," Wook said worriedly. "I'm sorry for not being there for you…"

"It's alright, son," his mom assured him. "I was spooked at first when the men pulled out their guns. But Mr. Kim fought… well."

Ah.
