Chapter 99 – If You Open Your Mouth Too Much, the Words Come Out Automatically
“Sorry. Mr. Hanseong.”
Thermia pushed me away slightly.
It was a helpless gesture, but she fell bewildered by the unexpected action.
“Thermia-san?”
Half of her life, she ran this store for 20 years. She said that she had been friends with Andre since she was little, so she has a deep relationship with him.
Were you too hasty? Was it pushed too abruptly?
“Still… Killing though…”
It was also too hasty.
Let’s soothe and conciliate. Let’s compromise
“Thermia-san, I, I really love Thermia-san. Andre, she has the confidence to make you happier than that man.”
“But… Both Andre and Tedra are my family…”
“Thermia-san. Is the child born between Andre and that man more important than me?”
“When I’m with Hanseong, my heart beats… I love you⋯⋯. But she’s already married ⋯⋯.”
⋯⋯.
It’s a mistake. It was too hasty.
“Thermia.”
I grabbed Thermia’s hand tightly. Thermia held my hand without shaking it off and looked at her as if she was thinking about something, and then she slowly opened her mouth.
“At least… Let me test Andre one more time.”
“A test?”
Phew⋯. Fortunately, Thermia doesn’t seem to be completely rejecting me either.
But a test, how is she going to test it?
“How are you going to test it?”
“I still can’t believe Andre betrayed me. If you check it out with my own two eyes… If you listen directly with her two ears, I think you can sort it out without any regrets.”
“What is confirmation?”
“She stole her money from the store, tried to buy sex slaves, and went into and out of the brothel ⋯. Let me ask you this.”
“Let me help you.”
“Yes? But…”
“If the truth is revealed, that man might threaten Mr. Thermia. So let me help you.”
If we let the two of us check it out, of course the misunderstanding might clear up.
So I have to stir up alienation on set and provoke Andre to make him look violent.
We need to make him irresistible.
“When we shift during lunch, we give them a drink with sleeping pills. And you tie yourself to something like a chair. We interrogate you in that state.”
“⋯⋯.”
At my suggestion, Thermia nodded her head slightly.
If you drug them, put them to sleep, restrain them, and commit these actions, you have already crossed an irreversible river.
If Thermia were in a normal state, there would be no way they would accept such a crazy proposal.
But now she is in a weak state of mind and body, shocked by my outright lie that her family betrayed her.
If the price of devotion accumulated over 20 years is betrayal, who can remain sane?
The last confirmation of Thermia right now is the minimum amount of mercy caused by the accumulated hatred.
If I break this, Thermia will be completely mine.
And I restrain Andre and make Thermia my woman in front of her.
“Okay⋯. I do that⋯.”
“I’ll get you some sleeping pills.”
As soon as Thermia’s permission was given, she immediately went to the Alchemist’s Guild to buy her sleeping pills.
Then, in a room on the second floor of her shop, she waited for lunchtime to arrive.
It was late, a little after lunchtime, and when she looked out of her window, she saw Andre on the other side of the street.
With a bushy beard, long flowing hair, and a protruding belly, she would have looked like a bandit boss had her outfit been a bit messy.
He doesn’t know that today is going to be the worst day of his life and he’s creeping into his store.
I entered the store and overheard the conversation on the first floor.
“Honey~ I’m here~”
“Yeah. Drink some of this.”
“What’s this?”
“I heard it’s a healthy drink. The guest who came earlier gave it to me.”
“Heh heh, no matter who he is, he’s a very nice person.”
Well, he’s a good person. Because he is the man who will save Thermia-san from trash like you and make her life bloom.
There was a thud and the sound of people collapsing.
“Hanseong.”
“Yes~”
When I came down to the first floor, I found Andre lying on his stomach next to the counter. On the floor beside her, a tuft of hair the same color as Andre’s hair fell.
“Wig?”
“⋯⋯.”
“Bald⋯. Yes?”
The part of Andre’s head, where the hair was stretched out, is a clean bald mountain. And his missing hair falls to the side.
Seeing that, Thermia’s face hardened.
“Wig⋯. It was…”
“Did Thermia-san not know?”
“Every time I go to bed, the noise of snoring and teeth grinding is so bad that I always use each room. So I didn’t know. Her hair is messy, so she didn’t cut it even if I told her to ⋯⋯.”
“Huh…”
Hiding the fact that he is bald!! Andre you trash bastard! No shame, no shame!
Hiding the fact that she is bald from her own family?!
He even went bald on the subject of being a deceased person!!
Even the saying that baldness is good for energy!!
A man with a big nose has a big cock. When he gets stuck on a cock, he gets stuck. Bald has good energy.
All three myths about sex are Gura!!!
“I’ll drag you into the inner room first.”
“Ah, yes.”
Together with Thermia, she grabbed Andre’s feet and dragged him into the room, where he struggled to put him on a chair and tied her limbs.
Pig shakes are fucking heavy!
“I will hide behind this man. If he knew he had an assistant, he would try to hide the truth.”
“Yes.”
You have to listen to what is being said next to you. I will deny everything about Chang-gwan, so when that time comes, I will have to go out and harass and provoke him.
After being silent in the room for a long time, Andre, who had been tied to a chair, groaned and began to come to his senses.
“Ugh? What, what! Why me? Thermia? Is this yours? What are you doing!?”
Andre shouted at Thermia as he shook his body tied to a chair.
First, let’s take a look.
Thermia sat down at her table with a cold expression she had never seen before, and she stood across from Andre.
“Andre.”
“Uh, huh?”
“Isn’t there something hidden from me?”
“Breath, hidden…”
Andre stuttered his words, shaking his head from side to side, then raised his head in embarrassment.
“Go, wig⋯.”
“⋯⋯.”
“My, the fact that I’m bald is… I didn’t mean to hide it…”
“That was a bit shocking. Since when have you been bald?”
“That, after Tedra was born, he fell out of it…”
“Did you hide that you were bald for nearly 15 years?”
“That, that’s…”
“Are you great? I didn’t know you were such a good liar.”
“No.”
At Thermia’s reprimand, Andre stood still as if she was speechless, and then she suddenly shouted in annoyance.
“You can hide it! What’s wrong with me being bald?! You, because you hid this, are you tying me up like this?!”
Heck, Andre, that asshole is digging his own grave.
“Ha…”
“Quick release! None of these pranks are funny! Sorry for deceiving you all this time! Okay?!”
Thermia let out a deep sigh and said without even looking at Andre.
“Being bald isn’t really that important. Did you steal the store money?”
“It’s okay.”
“How much did you steal?”
“4 gold…”
“4 gold? Really?”
“Oh, no… 5 gold⋯⋯.”
As soon as you open your mouth, Gura automatically pops out.
Thermia’s expression hardened coldly every time her bastard opened her mouth.
It’s getting more and more favorable to me.
She smiled and raised her eyebrows, covering her mouth with her hand and maintaining a serious expression.
“Why? Why did you steal it?”
“⋯⋯.”
It would be hard to say You probably won’t be able to say the words that you bought sex slaves and bought them to run the Changgwan.
And Andre will think so now.
‘Thermia only knows that the money is gone.’
Called. Without knowing that I told you the whole truth. He’ll probably keep hitting the gura to escape the crisis.
The accumulated lies will become distrust and return to you like a boomerang.
“Tah, to buy hair loss medicine. Hair loss and erectile dysfunction medicine. It was a bit expensive…”
“Did you buy it?”
“Uh. I bought it and wrote it all. So, I have no money left.”
“⋯⋯.”
Thermia’s eyes grew colder and colder. She is literally staring as if she would kill with just her eyes.
“Sorry~ Last week you said you wanted to do it too. That’s why I bought it~ Is it for my family?”
“For your family?”
“Yes~ For the sake of the family! I bought drugs to please you~”
“Eww.”
Thermia clenched her teeth and let out a deep sigh as if trying to catch her breath.
“I guess the effect of the drug was very good? Were you trying to experiment on a female slave?”
“How about that, ah, no… What are you talking about? Are you a female slave?”
“Everyone I know told me. I heard you gave 5 gold to Tedra and made him buy sex slaves?”
“Who, who did that!”
“Are you lying? You keep lying Do you think your life was made up of lies? I’ve spent 20 years, half my life running this store. Are you saying I lived my hard-earned money by sticking it into the hearts of prostitutes?!”
“What are you talking about?!”
“Shut up!”
“Te, Thermia?!”
Thermia, with tears welling up in her eyes, jumped into my arms behind Andre.
“Ugh, black! Giving half of my life to someone like you! If only I hadn’t met you! If only I hadn’t met a human like you!”
With her body tied up, Andre struggles on her limbs tied to her chair, unaware that Thermia is held in her arms.
Shall we go soon?
