## Chapter 55 – I Met My Childhood Friend’s Mother Alone (1)
“Mmm-hmm.”
After that, Jung Se-in kept sending me valuable photos.
Some were ordinary snapshots, but most were revealing pictures. For some reason, her friends were competitively trying to take the most explicit photos.
The level of the photos she sent kept escalating.
Eventually, they were pulling their panties aside or taking them off altogether.
The location also shifted from outdoors to inside the school building.
In those secret spaces, even more daring photos were taken and sent.
“These crazy bitches.”
Jung Se-in and her friends were all the same.
I knew they weren’t all there, but I never expected this level.
At first, I worried about the photos being leaked, but I decided to stop caring.
Honestly, it didn’t seem like these girls had to worry about their lives being ruined even if the photos were leaked.
At least, they probably wouldn’t end up worse than me, living an ordinary life. It wasn’t my place to worry about pretty girls who were well-off. I was more worried about my own life.
[Is this enough?]
[Do whatever you want with it, jerk off or blackmail her.]
Oh, right.
The reason I was getting racy photos from Jung Se-in wasn’t just to get material to fap to.
It was to use them as leverage to blackmail Se-in’s mother.
[But I don’t know if this will work.]
[If it doesn’t, it doesn’t.]
[We can come up with another plan.]
[Don’t push yourself too hard.]
Hmm. She sure talks lightly about it.
Wouldn’t my life be completely screwed if the blackmail failed?
But I’d already received a hefty advance, so I couldn’t just pretend I didn’t know anything.
I had to try, whether it worked or not.
[Okay.]
[I’ll give it a shot.]
[Good luck.]
That was the end of my conversation with Jung Se-in.
“Whew.”
…I’m hungry from all this tension.
Should I eat first?
I made ramen while sending a reply.
To Se-in’s mother’s account, the one that had sent me a message.
[Hello, this is Joo Ji-wan.]
[Excuse me, but is this really you?]
I got a reply when I was halfway through eating my ramen.
[Yes.]
[How’s tomorrow?]
Whoa! She actually replied?
It felt strange.
Like I was texting with a celebrity or something.
But she’s eager.
Getting straight to the point.
I decided to stall for a bit.
[I’m sorry, but I can’t be sure.]
[There are a lot of impersonations these days. And phishing scams.]
[If it’s not too much trouble, could you send me a selfie?]
There was silence for a while.
The reply came when I was finishing my ramen.
[Photo]
[Is this enough?]
“Whoa!”
The photo she sent was a normal selfie taken indoors.
Not particularly dolled up, just a straight-on shot with a blank expression.
But that made it even better. I could see photos from her celebrity days or prettied-up pictures on Instagram. On the other hand, there weren’t many natural, everyday photos like this.
I already knew it was really her, but seeing it like this was still fascinating.
Are celebrities just born with different genes? Do they not age? Why is she so pretty? I wouldn’t doubt it if someone said she was Se-in’s older sister, not her mother.
Well, she’s not really old enough to be a mother. Even when they got married, there was a lot of talk about the age difference between her and Se-in’s father. She’s still in her thirties, so she’s not even 20 years older than me. Just looking at her, she might even look younger than me.
[If it’s not too much trouble, could I get a full-body shot too?]
I was already sure it was her, but I just wanted more photos.
Maybe it was because I’d been getting racy photos from Jung Se-in and her friends.
[I’m not here to play games with you.]
Yikes. Guess not.
I got a blunt reply from the mother.
But.
Hmm.
Is it really impossible?
[Then I have nothing more to say.]
[I’ll block you.]
[Wait.]
She replied quickly to the threat of being blocked.
I’m the one being asked for a favor here. I shouldn’t forget that.
If she doesn’t want to meet, I have nothing to lose.
Sure, she’s my friend’s mother. Doing this to a friend’s mother would make me the scum of the earth, and I wouldn’t have any excuse.
But isn’t my friend more important than her mother?
I had to do my best to fulfill my friend’s request.
I wasn’t asking for anything out of personal desire. Of course not.
[Photo]
[Is this enough now?]
“Whoa!”
This time, it really was a full-body shot.
Probably her reflection in a full-length mirror in her closet.
Se-in’s mother was wearing a form-fitting indoor dress. The dress itself was plain, but because the person wearing it wasn’t plain, it had the effect of making the dress look special too.
“Oho. Indeed.”
I zoomed in on the photo to examine it closely. Especially her chest and hips.
Since there wasn’t much exposed skin, there wasn’t much to see. But just the curves visible through the clothes made my heart race.
Her body probably isn’t any different from other women’s bodies. It’s just a normal photo, not even a nude one, but it felt strangely special. What could be the reason?
“Hmm… what should I do?”
Should I ask for more photos?
I wanted to ask her to send me a nude photo if I could.
But if I left a message like that, there would be no turning back. If things went wrong later, it could become crucial evidence that would tighten the noose around my neck.
More than anything, if I made unreasonable demands and the meeting fell through, I wouldn’t gain anything either.
[I’ve confirmed.]
[Where should I go tomorrow?]
[Please tell me the time and place, and I’ll be there.]
In the end, I decided not to cross the line any further.
I continued the conversation and made an appointment. Tomorrow during the day, at Jung Se-in’s house.
I wondered why she wanted to meet at her house, but when I thought about it, Se-in’s mother was a celebrity. If she met me outside, someone might recognize her. They might take photos. She probably thought her house was safer.
“Hmm. Should I train until tomorrow, then?”
Even though I was worked so hard yesterday, my dick was throbbing again when I woke up.
It must be because I got so many racy photos. But I decided to hold back for now.
I might get called by Jung Se-in again at any time. I had to avoid jerking off alone as much as possible.
And maybe things would go well with Se-in’s mother tomorrow. Hehehe.
…Actually, I’m not expecting much from that.
Se-in tells me to go for it, but I don’t think she expects that much either.
I should test the waters a bit and give up quickly if it doesn’t seem like it’ll work.
I couldn’t take the risk. I want to live a more enjoyable, longer life.

“Hoo.”
Do Hye-jung steeled herself.
Today was the day she was meeting her daughter’s boyfriend.
She was going to meet him and finish the conversation they hadn’t been able to complete before.
‘Break up with my daughter.’
He wasn’t a child she’d given birth to.
Do Hye-jung had no intention of interfering in her stepdaughter’s love life.
If he was just an ordinary guy, she would have ignored it. She would have even supported them as a woman and a mother, even if her husband opposed it.
But that was only if he was an ‘ordinary guy.’
She couldn’t accept a guy who was sleeping with any woman while also seeing her daughter.
She couldn’t acknowledge as a son-in-law a shameless guy who was having orgies in the house where her daughter’s parents lived.
Her daughter might resent her if she found out she’d told him to break up with her.
But it couldn’t be helped. It would be even worse if her husband found out. She had to do something about it before it reached his ears.
Se-in was smart, so she would understand. She was just blinded by a guy right now and couldn’t see reality. When the fiery emotions of her youth cooled down, Se-in would realize that this was the right thing to do.
Do Hye-jung added more makeup to hide her uneasy feelings.
The other party wasn’t an ordinary man. She didn’t know what his purpose was in seeing Se-in, but if she wasn’t careful, he could create a critical rift in her family.
She had to cut him off before that happened. By any means necessary.
The heavy makeup was a preparation for taking the initiative.
A preparation to not be underestimated by the other party.
A woman’s beauty is strength.
Do Hye-jung prepared herself with the mindset of facing an important shoot.
It was a battle she couldn’t afford to lose from the start.
-Ding-dong.
Finally, the bell rang, and the person she had been waiting for arrived.
Her daughter’s boyfriend. And the appearance of the villain blocking her daughter’s path.
-Hello. I’m Joo Ji-wan, Se-in’s friend.
The door opened, and the man entered the house.
Do Hye-jung greeted him with a confident attitude at the entrance.
As the mistress of this house, and as her daughter’s mother, she had to show him that she was not an easy opponent.
“Come in.”
She smiled brightly and let him into the house.
“O…oh….”
Taking the initiative was a success.
Joo Ji-wan, upon seeing Do Hye-jung, stood frozen at the entrance with his mouth wide open.
Joo Ji-wan was completely mesmerized by Do Hye-jung’s appearance, who was dressed as if she were attending a celebrity awards ceremony, with heavy makeup and a revealing dress.
“Come and sit down.”
“Ah. Ah, yes.”
Do Hye-jung went and sat on the living room sofa first.
Then she crossed her legs. Her snow-white thighs were revealed through the slit in her dress.
Joo Ji-wan’s eyes followed those thighs as he sat on the sofa opposite her.
It was an all-too-obvious shift in gaze.
“Break up with my daughter.”
Thinking she had succeeded in taking the initiative, Do Hye-jung abruptly got to the point.
As if snapping out of it at those words, Joo Ji-wan, whose gaze had been fixed on her thighs, raised his eyes and looked straight ahead.
“Of course, I don’t mean just break up for nothing.”
There was a thick envelope on the table in front of the sofa.
Do Hye-jung pushed the envelope toward Joo Ji-wan.
“It’s cash. 20 million won.”
His already open mouth opened even wider.
