“Come on, suck it and I’ll answer you.”

Ja-kyung grinned viciously, revealing his teeth.

“Okay. Come here. I’ll rip off the flesh and chew it slowly.”

Cheeky asshole. The man’s fists and feet flew toward Ja-kyung as soon as the words were finished. Hey, don’t do it. The man next to him intervened, but the violence continued. The man continued to kick even when Ja-kyung’s body which was tied to the chair rolled over on its side. Ja-kyung was straightened by the man, who had barely been able to calm himself up. Ja-kyung, whose face had smashed, spat blood on the ground.

They strapped him to a chair and tied his hands and legs together so tightly that he couldn’t get free. His brothers must have known about him by now. Ja-kyung was wondering when Park Tae-soo would arrive. It’s too late to keep waiting for him. He tried to conceal his anxiety, but he heard footsteps outside. The two guards’ gazes were drawn there.

His eyes widened as he turned around.

“You’re still going strong after that?”

The owner of the voice was none other than Takeya Jun. He threw a knife into the air and caught it with his free hand as he strode forward with one gouged-out eye and a broken arm wrapped in bandages. He approached Ja-kyung and lowered himself to examine his face as the two guards stepped back.

“You look like shit. Didn’t you get hit too easily?”

Ja-kyung smirked as he scanned his face up and down.

“Hyung-nim, aren’t you the one who looks like shit? Can you see ahead?”

Jun aimed the tip of his knife at Ja-kyung’s right eye. Even the slightest movement of his head would make his eyeballs burst. He lowered the point of his knife, ran it across Ja-kyung’s cheek, and aimed it at his neck.

“You want me to kill you in one shot? Or shall I cut you into pieces and send you to your brother?”

When he didn’t answer, his grip tightened on Ja-kyung’s jaw.

“Answer me. Hmm?”

“Do as you please, you son of a bitch!”

Jun kicked his body with his feet as soon as Ja-kyung screamed. He trampled on the fallen Ja-kyung repeatedly, and as if that wasn’t enough, he stabbed his arm with a knife, which is still not fully healed. Then do the same for the other arm.

Arghhh. A piercing scream echoed through the empty building.

Dip, dip, dip, blood dripping from his face soaked the floor. Il-hyun writhed in pain with his hands tied behind his back. Broken wooden bats littered the ground. The men wielding wooden bats and metal pipes surrounded him, and Chairman Kang sat in the front, indifferently staring at his bloodied son.

“There is an old saying. A bat is the medicine for a mad dog.”

Il-hyun laughed with a bloody face.

“There’s also another saying. You must die when you are old.”

“Well, well. I see you still don’t understand the situation.”

Chairman Kang gestured, and one of his subordinates hit Il-hyun on the back with a wooden bat. Il-hyun dropped to his knees. He’s staring at Chairman Kang as if he’s about to rip him apart, but Section Chief Kim, who was standing next to him, approached with a piece of paper. He took a step back after placing a blank piece of paper and a ballpoint pen on the ground. There was nothing written on the white paper.

“Write down as I said.”

“Fuck you. Father.”

“A suicide note.”

Il-hyun, who was staring at the blank paper, burst into laughter. After rubbing the inside of his mouth with his tongue, ptui! He then spat it out on the ground. A mixture of saliva and blood splattered on the floor.

“Fuck. If you want to kill me, just kill me.”

“Write it down. I, Kang Il-hyun, have a worsening mental illness.”

Il-hyun laughed hysterically, then changed his expression and asked with a stern face.

“Did you notice that?”

Chairman Kang continued talking without hesitation.

“I don’t want to be an inconvenience to those around me anymore, so I’m going to give up everything I have and end my life.”

Il-hyun laughed and added a word.

Theft is never good, try looking at [ pawread dot com ].

“P.s. The culprit is Chairman Kang Hoon.”

Pak, pak, pak, the wooden bat was slammed into Il-hyun’s back again and again. This time, Chairman Kang stood up, as if enraged, and came over to hit him in the face with his cane. The impact on his jaw and face and ringing was heard in his right ear. Blood gushed from his mouth as his bruised cheeks ripped open.

Il-hyun raised his head and laughed like a lunatic at Chairman Kang. Chairman Kang’s eyes sank beneath the black water as he gazed at his demonic son. Despite the fact that Il-hyun was his child, he was terrified of him and wanted to kill him.

No one should want his position without his permission, and no one should take it without his permission. He couldn’t just let it go, even if it was his own child who broke all of these rules.

“I shouldn’t have given birth to you in the first place. I should have left you alone when your mother said she would take drugs and die.”

Il-hyun spoke each word clearly.

“You should have done that.”

Just then, Lee Ja-kyung’s voice was heard from the next room. A cruel smile spread across Chairman Kang’s face when he saw Il-hyun’s expression completely change from that of a lunatic. He dragged a blank piece of paper thrown on the ground with the tip of his cane and set it aside. Kang Il-hyun’s gaze, which had been fixed on the wall, shifted to Chairman Kang.

“Why. Smile more.”

“I’ll write whatever you want, so don’t touch him.”

Despite the request, his voice was eerily cold. Chairman Kang didn’t answer, and Kang Il-hyun couldn’t hold it in and finally exploded.

“Fuck! I said I’ll do whatever you want!”

Chairman Kang was taken aback by his son’s unfamiliar and strange appearance, and an unexplainable sense of malice rose within him. He was fascinated as to what had caused someone who appeared so calm and relaxed to become impatient and anxious.

“I always kept what you said in my heart.”

“…”

“There are those I trust not to harm me. I call them corpses.”

Il-hyun’s eyes turned cold. Anger rose to the top of his head. The rope was not loosening no matter how much he moved his hand. When he heard Lee Ja-kyung’s scream again, his heart sank.

Chairman Kang was having fun while watching his agitated son. There was no other way as effective as this for disciplining a spoiled son who constantly tries to sit on top of his head.

“Shall we test that word today?”

Chairman Kang gave a separate order to Section Chief Kim next to him before Il-hyun could ask what he meant. He went outside, and the noisy adjoining room quieted down. Il-hyun bit his lower lip and gazed out the window. A relatively high floor. Chairman Kang most likely intended for him to write his suicide note here and then push him down. The open window gives a view of the blue sky. It was a bright and sunny day.

Before he had time to think about it, Section Chief Kim dragged Lee Ja-kyung. Kang Il-hyun’s face contorted when he saw Takeya Jun following him. Jun smiled as he showed the bloody knife, and blood dripped from Lee Ja-kyung’s arm.

Ja-kyung was shocked when he saw Kang Il-hyun covered in blood. His throat tightened as he realized it was all his fault. If he hadn’t made a confession like that in the morning, if Il-hyun had finished his work at the company as planned, none of this would have happened.

Chairman Kang’s subordinate brought Ja-kyung and knelt him down next to Il-hyun.

After checking Ja-kyung’s condition, Il-hyun glared at Chairman Kang. His eyes were full of anger and hatred.

“I’ll do everything you ask, please let go.”

“Who? You or that kid?”

“Lee Ja-kyung.”

Chairman Kang’s gaze shifted to Ja-kyung. It would not have gotten this far if this guy had done his job properly a year ago. He wanted to kill him right away out of resentment, but he also wanted to teach his son that life had many bitter lessons.

One of which was the betrayal of someone you trusted and cherished.

Chairman Kang gave the order and one of his subordinates untied Ja-kyung’s bound arms. Before Ja-kyung could understand why, Section Chief Kim approached as he pulled an ax from his back, and threw it. The moment he instinctively tried to grab it, Section Chief Kim pulled out a gun and aimed it at Ja-kyung.

“I didn’t give it to you to play tricks.”

Ja-kyung took his eyes off the ax and looked at Chairman Kang.

“My son believes in you like a steel.”

“…”

“How about you? Do you trust my son?”

Ja-kyung turned to face Il-hyun. However, Il-hyun avoided making eye contact with Ja-kyung. Why? Why wouldn’t Il-hyun look him in the eyes? Chairman Kang made an unbelievable proposal before Ja-kyung could even realize what was going on.

“Cut off his right arm, and I’ll let you go.”

Ja-kyung looked at Kang Il-hyun in surprise. But, Il-hyun still stared straight ahead.

Why. Why don’t you look at me?

“Hey, CEO Kang.”

Il-hyun closed his eyes and pretended not to hear. Ja-kyung finally understood his intentions. Fuck. Fuck. He clenched his teeth, turned his head, and glared at Chairman Kang as if he were about to kill him.

It was not out of affection that he does not immediately kill his children. Kang Il-hyun’s bad habit of slowly playing with his prey seemed to have been passed down from Chairman Kang. Rather than physical pain, Chairman Kang wanted to give Il-hyun the pain of being betrayed by someone he trusted and loved.

As soon as Ja-kyung slowly reached out his hand and grabbed the ax in front of him, the muzzles were all directed at Ja-kyung. They were prepared to fire if necessary. Anyway, he would die either way. Ja-kyung grabbed the axe handle and stood up from his seat.

Il-hyun bowed his head in defeat. Ja-kyung understood why Il-hyun avoided eye contact. He was concerned that Ja-kyung would hesitate and waver. He was afraid that if Ja-kyung hesitated, they would both be killed.

Sweat broke out in the hand holding the axe.

“Haa. Fuck.”

Chairman Kang was not a patient man.

“Do I need to wait longer?”

Ja-kyung called Kang Il-hyun in a quiet voice.

“CEO Kang.”

Il-hyun remained silent. Ja-kyung pursed his lips.

“Sorry…”

Il-hyun’s hardened mouth went up slightly. He remained motionless, his eyes closed as if awaiting execution. I’m really sorry. I will pay for this sin for the rest of my life. Chairman Kang’s face lit up as soon as Ja-kyung raised the axe.

Looking at Kang Il-hyun, who was still motionless, Ja-kyung turned around and threw the ax at Chairman Kang. The ax that flew in an instant hit Chairman Kang’s forehead without even stopping, and his skull split open with a loud cracking sound.

Kang Il-hyun opened his closed eyes at the same time. He turned to look at Ja-kyung after seeing his father fall down with an axe on his forehead.

Ja-kyung smiled sadly and with remorse.

“Sorry. You have no parents anymore.”
