      by Emerlyn — "..." I knew what he must be thinking. Due to habits ingrained in my body, I would instinctively shrink my shoulders whenever he touched me. It was a defense mechanism born from tension over what was to come. However, unfortunately, that wasn't the only reason this time. When his hand touched me right then, my stomach trembled. Ah, damn...why am I acting like this? Even though it was just the lightest brush, the part he touched felt hot. The reaction, which was subtly different from a fever,…

      TIN 83 Cover
      by Emerlyn — For a while, the mansion was bustling with party preparations. Although Joo Do-hwa didn't do anything special, the number of busy employees running around had increased significantly. The mansion had more people than usual. It was a busier atmosphere than normal. Even though these changes didn't directly concern me, I couldn't help but be wary of the suddenly increased number of unfamiliar faces. Because of this, I tried not to leave my room during daylight hours. I wasn't one to wander around much…

      TIN 82 Cover
      by Emerlyn — "..." Why was I caught? For a moment, that thought crossed my mind. He had been treating me as 'hyung' for a while now, but this time it seemed truly sincere. He wasn't artificially acting kind as if intentionally putting up a front but was genuinely looking at me as if trying to confirm the truth. However, as soon as my head cooled down, I saw the faint expectation and self-deprecation underlying his demeanor. Though he was asking calmly, there was a hint of doubt in his slowly blinking eyes. As…

      TIN 81 Cover
      by Emerlyn — A chill ran up and down my spine. Not due to the shock factor of the content, but because Joo Do-hwa's expression was as casual as if he were talking about everyday matters. As if he wouldn't even blink at the death of others right before his eyes. "What on earth did they think that drug was...?" "..." I couldn't come up with a response. I couldn't ask why he did it and if it was because they were the ones who had drugged him first. Joo Do-hwa went on to say something similar. "It's funny,…

      TIN 80 Cover
      by Emerlyn — My mouth snapped shut. Due to my dazed state, I couldn't immediately comprehend what he had just said. He gazed steadily at my lips and added, "There's an anti-eavesdropping system in place in that room." It wasn't a strange thing to say. Such a system would naturally be operating in the Sae Group chairman's house. No, not just Chairman Joo's house, but right here in Joo Do-hwa's house as well. "If you overhear by mistake, you'll go deaf." He tapped his ear with his index finger. His blinking eyes…

      TIN 78 Cover
      by Emerlyn — "..." Henry frowned as if he found what I just said to be utter nonsense. His expression suggested he was about to tell me not to talk rubbish, but there was a hint of doubt in his eyes. He didn't believe my words, but it seemed to make him feel uneasy nonetheless. For me, it was half a joke and half out of spite. I couldn't say I didn't intend to tease him, but it was also true that I was too lazy to explain in detail. Besides, he probably wouldn't be interested in my identity anyway, so there was…

      TIN 77

      TIN 77 Cover
      by Emerlyn — I knew that it was a reckless gamble. But I decided to bet on the chance that Chairman Joo wouldn't believe my words. I hoped he would laugh it off like Lee Yuna calling me crazy, or curse like Joo Do-hwa asking what my scheme was. That he would dismiss it as nonsense, saying it was impossible for a dead person to come back from the grave. What else could I do? If I quietly took the pills and went back, who knows what Joo Do-hwa would do to me. So whether it worked out or not, I had to pretend to be…

      TIN 76

      TIN 76 Cover
      by Emerlyn — "It's upsetting from a father's perspective." The way he clicked his tongue seemed cunning. As my complicated mind cooled down, things I had overlooked before started to bother me little by little. Come to think of it, there were many strange parts. Wouldn't it have been simpler to kill the real person rather than fabricate a corpse? Why didn't Chairman Joo do that? If 4HAE Group had taken action, finding one child would have been no big deal, so why didn't they search further and decide to leave me…
