Chapter 930: Get Lost
June hit it right on the nail.
Everything he said was accurate, and Lena felt like she was getting her fortune read right in front of her. She hadn't told anyone these things before.
As a child, she often saw her dad suffer the consequences of the actions of others. Kwangsoo tried hard to hide it; however, it still showed because Lena knew.
So, when she inherited the company, she made a personal promise to keep Minjun out of it. He didn't deserve to go through what she did. However, in the process, it also seemed like it brought her more distant from her son.
She felt that it was better that way.
June waited patiently for her answer. If there was anyone who could help him, then it was her -none other than her.
However, instead of a serious answer, a chuckle bubbled up Lena's throat.
June frowned in confusion. She was laughing?
"Ah," she muttered after a while, wiping the tears from her eyes. Then, she looked at June, the sadness in her eyes now being replaced with anger.
"You? Lessen the burden? How are you going to do that? Are you going to sing and dance your way out of my problems?"
June pursed his lips and shook his head. "I have some vital information that would allow you to gain leverage against your enemies-one that would put them under your control."
The briefcase.
It was something that Mr. Klin had put together. June inferred that it was for Lena. However, he never had the chance to show it to her. In the end, it was in June's hands-with no one else knowing.
"Where is it?" Lena asked with one eyebrow raised.
June smirked. "I'm no telling you, of course," he said. "You need to agree to my proposition before I would reveal it to you."
Lena scoffed and shook her head. "Sure, sure," she said.
June's eyes narrowed. "You don't believe me, do you?"
Lena paused for a while, appearing to be thinking about it.
Trust.
That was a concept she hadn't heard in so long.
After her parents' death, her mindset was solidified even further.
Things turn out for the worse when you try to change them. The status quo might be rotten, but it was still working. Why fix something that's still working-no matter how rotten it
might be?
She felt an ache in her heart. A part of her heart opposed this mindset, but at the same time, she knew that it was what kept her family protected until now.
"Get out."
June bit his lip and lifted his head, looking at Lena. However, much to his dismay, she wasn't looking at him anymore. Instead, she had her gaze on the floor, appearing to be in a dilemma.
"What?" June asked.
"Get out," Lena repeated. "It was a mistake for you to come here."
"Didn't you hear what I just said?" June exasperated. "This is something that your father wants!"
"How do you know what he wants?" she spat. "You're not the one who grew up with the pain of seeing him lose himself just because he was kind to everybody-just because he gave everyone the benefit of the doubt, just because he had an innocent dream of building a good future for the entertainment industry!"
"So, get out."
"I would have gotten rid of you now-maybe call someone to eradicate you from this world
for finding out my identity. However, for the sake of Minjun, I'm not going to do it."
"So, get out and get lost before I do something I regret."
"And never come back here."
