Childhood Friend of the Youngest Daughter of a Conglomerate Family - Childhood Friend of the Youngest Daughter of a Conglomerate Family chapter 88

88 – Love That Man (1)

“… Miss, I’m sorry.”

Hancheri, with her characteristic expressionless face, lowered her head.

She became Ara’s exclusive follower of King Yucheol’s last command and failed in the mission Ara instructed her to do.

On a mission to secure new recruits for Lee Yoon-ah.

“It’s okay. We are not the police or the prosecutors… “It wasn’t easy to begin with.”

Ara shook her head as she looked through the report submitted by Hancheri.

The document contained Lee Yoon-ah’s past activities, her relationships with people around her, her address, etc.

However, Lee Yoon-ah was not at the address written down. A bunch of her letters stuck in her mailbox indicated that she had been hiding for a long time already.

“It’s obvious she’s where she belongs. He’s probably just hooked up with a random man and is sitting in his house… The problem is that I don’t know who it is.”

“… “You’re out of luck.”

“That’s right, really.”

Of course, Lee Yoon-ah’s disappearance was not to avoid Ara. How could she have known that Ara was looking for her and hid?

Lee Yuna was running away from her debtors. That’s also a nasty third-party financial institution, private loan debt. It was also money borrowed for her entertainment expenses.

“Nothing has really changed, this woman… “

After reading her report, Ara was so shocked that she burst out laughing.

“Anyway, let’s put someone in this woman’s house. Because she might come back. And she will seek out the creditors of this woman’s debt.”

“… All right.”

Han Cherry moved immediately after receiving the instructions.

She is a much better person than Jin Sang-cheol, who was originally Ara’s attendant, so she will handle the job quickly.

Wooow- Wooung-

Ara’s cell phone vibrated.

When she checked the screen, the caller was Choi Na-ra, her college classmate. She was Ara and she was a girl I was close with in college.

“Now that I think about it, the second semester has already started.”

It’s already been three days since the first day of college. Although she had already announced that she would be taking a leave of absence from school, she still had quite a few people contacting Ara.

“Hello? “Is it me?”

– Yes, Araya. I get along well?

“I’m bored to death. It would have been better if I had just kept going instead of taking a leave of absence… “

Ara gave a rough explanation like that.

In reality, she was taking a leave of absence because of Hansol, but she told others that she was taking a leave of absence due to family circumstances.

Ara briefly talked to Nara Choi about her school and the people at the school.

When she was a little more comfortable with the conversation, Nara Choi carefully brought out what she really wanted to say.

– That… Araya. Are you in contact with Lee Hansol these days?

“Sol… “Hansol?”

Ara frowned slightly.

She knew that Choi Nara was secretly targeting Hansol, but she had less sense of it after Hansol started dating Soyi… Are you going to do that again now?

– Oh, Hansol.

“No, I won’t contact you. “I told you we were awkward.”

The statement itself of no contact was the truth.

It can be said that the conflict with Hansol last time was somewhat resolved, but that doesn’t mean she didn’t meet him or call him.

It was to let go of her own regrets and to keep Hansol out of trouble.

Since Ara didn’t know either, a disappointed sigh came from the other end of the phone.

“But why Hansol? “What’s wrong with him?”

– Huh? Ah, you haven’t seen the group chat… Ah, that’s right. We created a new group chat room.

“What is it? Why?”

Ara was anxious.

And Choi Nara’s next words showed that the premonition of anxiety was correct.

– Lee Hansol, he hasn’t even come to school since the semester started.

———-

Ara headed straight to Korea University.

“Miss, where should I go to Korea University?”

“… “First of all, the north gate.”

Jin Sang-cheol accompanied Ara in place of Han Cherry, who had been entrusted with other tasks.

She told him to drive as fast as possible, and Ara tapped her cell phone.

“… Since when…… “

Hansol’s profile photo was changed to the default photo.

It was originally a photo taken of Soyi and I, but when did it come down?

Why did it come down? No way…

After a moment of hesitation, Ara typed quickly.

「Sol.」

Just one word.

What happened with Soyi? Did you break up? Or what happened to your body?

All kinds of thoughts came to my head, but I couldn’t put them into text.

I didn’t want to hurt Hansol’s feelings with pointless speculation, and I didn’t want to put those ominous thoughts into writing.

“Lady, we have arrived at the north gate.”

“Please wait nearby until I contact you.”

When Ara got out of the car, the place she immediately headed to was Soi snack food.

On the way, Ara checked her phone.

There was no reply from Hansol.

Of course it can be.

Even if she doesn’t have anything to do with him, she may be busy and she may not reply, or her girlfriend may notice, so she may not reply, or… She may not reply because Ara is still reluctant.

‘… Are you okay. “It won’t be anything.”

I tried hard to shake off the negative thoughts.

Arriving in front of Soi Snack, Ara carefully looked inside through her glass door.

Inside her store, which was crowded with customers because it was lunch time, Ara looked at the busy faces of the employees.

The first thing that came into view was Soyi’s face. She seemed a little gaunt for some reason.

Other than that, the only person I could see in the hall was a slightly chubby woman standing in front of the counter.

As far as Ara knew, there was only one thin woman other than Hansol who worked part-time at Soi Bunsik. Could it be that she quit?

Is Hansol perhaps in her kitchen? Ara pressed her face against the glass door, wanting to look further inside.

Tung-!

“… Wow!”

Her palm suddenly flew right in front of Ara’s face.

Of course, she wasn’t hurt because it flew in from behind the glass door, but Ara instinctively pulled her body back and fell on her path.

“Ouch… “

“…… “

I touched her slightly chapped knee and raised her head to see Soi through her glass door. Her palm was stuck to the spot that Ara had been looking at just a moment ago.

Soyi’s eyes, looking down at the fallen Ara, were so sharp that it almost felt like life.

“Oh, hey… “

Ara froze. She was planning to look for Hansol alone without being caught by Soyi, but she ended up running into her.

Ara didn’t know what to do, so she stayed where she was, and Soyi came outside with her disgusted face on her face.

“… “What are you here for?”

“…… “

Ara’s mouth froze and no words came out.

Soyi’s freezingly cold face reminded me of the strong winter wind.

“What did you come for?” “

Soyi’s face twitched as if she was about to explode.

She was in front of the store, so she had a lot of patience, but if she didn’t have eyes to see, she would have slapped Ara a long time ago.

Ara barely managed to get one word out of her throat as she desperately moved her lips.

“… What about Sol…… ?”

Upon hearing that name, Soyi clenched her fists.

“… “Why are you looking for that person from me?”

“That’s because… !”

“That person was fired. Since you no longer work at our store, go find somewhere else…. “Don’t you ever appear before me again.”

That one too? Ara knew from those words.

The two people are broken. That’s also very bad.

“Now, just a moment!”

Ara grabbed Soyi’s hand as she was about to return to the store.

“Why don’t you let go of this!?”

Soyi shook his hand nervously. Ara’s hands were tingling, but that didn’t matter right now.

“So, Sol isn’t even coming to school right now… Is there any misunderstanding between you and Sol? “

“Ha! Misunderstanding… ?”

Soi clicked her tongue as if she was shocked and pulled her face closer to Ara.

“I misunderstood. I thought that bastard really liked me…. You seemed like such an asshole during that time? In reality, the one she loves is you, but I was excited and mistaken… “It was pathetic, wasn’t it?”

“Yes? What is that… “

Ara didn’t understand Soyi’s words. What does it mean that Hansol didn’t like Soyi?

As far as Ara can see, Hansol clearly had feelings of pure love for Soyi.

But why does Soyi say something like that?

… I don’t know. First of all, there was no doubt that there was some kind of misunderstanding between Soyi and Hansol.

Ara had a confused look on her face, but Soyi didn’t care. Instead, she provoked her.

“Is that guy useful in bed? For a used product… You too, give it a try. Pretending it was my first time was disgusting, but it felt good. Or was it something you already used?”

“… What to say now…… “

It was a series of shocks for Ara.

Although it was sad for Ara that Soyi had a relationship with Hansol, it was natural for her as a lover. So she could endure it up to that point.

But… I can’t stand words like that.

I don’t know what happened with Hansol, but you can’t believe you’re mocking him like that.

Used? Disgusting?

Why does she insult Hansol, the person she loves like that?

Ara clenched her fists. Her mouth was tight and her lower lip was bleeding.

But for now we have to be patient.

“Next time… I’ll come back…… “

Ara left quickly.

It felt like he wouldn’t be able to hold back any longer and would attack Soyi.

Now we have to find Hansol first.

“… What again… “

After seeing Ara’s back, Soyi returned to her shop.

Hansol, whom she had wanted to forget, came back to her mind and a dark cloud formed in her head.

———-

Ara went straight to Hansol’s house.

She was worried that the password might have been changed, but when Ara entered her password, the door lock of Hansol’s house opened softly to welcome Ara.

“Sol, Sol, you’re not home… ?”

There was no answer to the call from the front door.

There was a strange feeling in the air flow inside the house.

It feels a bit cold to be a house where people live, and it feels stuffy with a bit of warmth to the house where no one lives.

“…… “

Ara hesitated for a moment before the visit.

Her mother, who left in vain, came to mind.

With trembling hands, Ara opened the door.

“So, Sol… !”

In the middle of a dark and damp room. Hansol had collapsed.
