Chapter 140: 6.23

The day after was like a fleeting dream for Kibum. He was kicked out of the office after Taewoo almost killed Regina. She even went as far as forbidding him to go inside Junho's office to formally express his farewell to his former boss. 

"Why are you still here, psychopath? Leave now! Even looking at your face makes me nauseous!" Regina glared as Kibum carried all his belonging from his former job as a secretary. He lowered his head and excused himself.

When he entered the elevator, his gaze lingered on the mahogany door directly facing the elevator. He wished maybe Junho would come out and pulled him out of this elevator. Maybe Junho would bravely shield him from Regina's poisonous tongue. Maybe…

There were too many maybes in his head, and he still wished for something impossible. Kibum shook his head. The reality was painful indeed, but Junho was not the one at fault. He tried his best and said that he was still trying to tackle the problem with Regina.

The elevator door closed, with Kibum stood alone inside the elevator. 

'Junho is in a difficult position because of me…' Kibum lamented

'Don't be such a pushover. It is not your fault. It's that Regina bitch who tries to blackmail Junho,' Taewoo said. 

'It's your fault for losing control. The situation wouldn't escalate this far if you just stay silent and let Regina humiliate me,' Kibum said. 

Taewoo was obviously displeased, but what Kibum said was correct. It was him to truly wanted to kill that poisonous woman. If Junho didn't stop him, Regina would be dead meat right now. 

Kibum left the office and used a taxi to return back home. He put the box of his belonging in the front door and head straight to the bed. For some reason, he didn't want to restrain Taewoo after that incident with Regina. 

'You really won't chain me? Not afraid of me making a mess again?' Taewoo asked. 

'No, I do not… care.'

Kibum closed his eyes tiredly. He refused to talk with Taewoo right now and fell asleep immediately, letting Taewoo take control of his body. 

Taewoo opened his eyes and looked around. It had been a while since he could roam around his house freely because his brother would always chain him like a dog every night.

Taewoo stretched his arm. He stood from the bed and went to explore the house that trapped them for so long. Maybe Kibum hadn't realized this yet, but they never had a happy life in this house. It was all screaming, fighting, crying, which led to their mother's mental breakdown. 

Taewoo sat on the reclining chair where their mother often lamented on her fate before. The nostalgia hit hard on him, "How I really wish that we can return back to our childhood. I would rather end everything before Kibum got traumatized."

Junho was busy fighting with his mother via phone, "Mom! I do not want to get engaged with Regina! Don't you see that I'm gay? I cannot give you a biological grandchild!"

"You should! Don't you have filial piety with your parents? Your dad will crawl out of his grave if he sees you like this!" Madam Jeon also persisted with her stance. She was a traditional woman with traditional views. Something like a same-sex relationship was out of her dictionary. 

"Mom, listen to me! I would never marry anyone except Kibum! I will not marry a poisonous woman like Regina. You will regret taking her as a daughter-in-law because she will suck us dry!"

"What do you mean? Regina also comes from a rich family! You two are a match made in heaven!" Madam Jeon insisted. 

Junho was angry with the conversation that led to nowhere. He hung up the call and vented his anger by turning vibrator intensity inside his ass to the maximum.

[Ah… that feels better.]

[Pupa: … you know that you still haven't solved anything yet, right?]

[You see, sometimes, the best thing you can do in such a helpless situation is to sit down, enjoy your tea, and feel the vibration inside, tee-hee.]

[Pupa: Okay, slut. Now get back to work, or this will lead to an even bigger disaster.]

[What can I do? Regina has such a giant card to blackmail us. The only thing I can do is to repeatedly reject Regina until she got tired. She doesn't love Junho, right? She just has too much time for herself.]

[Pupa: At least, you should try to show her that you really mean it.]

[Like… showing her that my love for Kibum/Taewoo, and there is no room for her?]

[Pupa: Exactly.]

Yunyu was thinking about visiting Kibum's house. It would serve two purposes: first, to show Regina how she would never replace Kibum, and second, it might help him find a hidden plot in this world. 

[Seriously, though. The Fatemeters are already 80%, and I still haven't seen any lead about Kibum's past or the hidden plot.]

Junho left the office and was greeted with Regina, who sat at the secretary desk, doing nothing other than scrolling her Instagram feed.

"Where are you going, Junho?" Regina asked suspiciously. 

"It's none of your business," Junho replied crudely. He didn't even spare her a glance before pressing the elevator button. 

"Junho! I will be your future fiancée! I have the right to know!" Regina yelled at him. But Junho didn't seem to care. 

"Just because you blackmailed me and scheme with my mother for a simple engagement doesn't mean that I will love you. Probably never, so spare your energy and start doing something more productive," Junho said before the elevator door closed. 

Regina was raging. She had successfully separated Junho and that psychopath. But Junho still loved that guy foolishly, "If this kind of threat does not shake him, then I have to get a bigger threat to make him submit."

Regina texted her subordinate and asked about the cinema Kibum and Junho went into on their first day in public, and her subordinate replied with a text; 

*Miss, I have forced the cinema manager to hand in the spare copy of Mr. Jeon Junho and his secretary's sex tape. Do you want me to send it to you?* 

Regina smiled thin. She knew that she would hit the jackpot if she got a sex tape of Junho with that psychopath, "With this, Junho will fully submit to me."
