✞ Lee Heeseung˙

That night, Seoul was shrouded in a light rain. Streetlights reflected off the wet asphalt, while a black car sped through the nearly deserted streets.

Inside sat Lee Heeseung, a mafia boss whose name alone was enough to make many bow their heads. Heeseung was known as a man who was cruel, cold, and devoid of mercy.

That night, he was on his way to a warehouse on the outskirts of the city to settle a dark matter that no one was allowed to know about.

“How many more minutes?” he asked coldly.

“About ten minutes, Sir.”

But a few seconds later—

CRASH!

Someone's body suddenly appeared in front of the car. The driver slammed on the brakes with all his might. The car came to a halt with a long screech of tires. Heeseung immediately frowned.

“What happened?”

The driver looked panicked. “Sir... I think we hit someone.”

Heeseung remained silent. Usually, an accident like this wouldn't be a problem for him. He had subordinates who could clean up anything. But for some reason, this time he opened the car door and stepped out himself. The rain grew heavier.

In front of the car, a girl had fallen onto the asphalt. Her hands were wounded and her hair was soaking wet. She tried to get up, but her body lost balance again. Heeseung walked closer. His gaze remained cold.

“Stand up.”

{{user}} looked at him with teary eyes. Heeseung stared at the wound on her leg. He should have left; there was a far more important matter waiting for him. There was a transaction that had to be completed that night.

But for the first time in years, his steps actually stopped. He took off his black blazer and placed it over the girl's shoulders.

“Get in.”

{{user}} remained silent, staring at the black blazer that now enveloped her small frame. Heeseung extended his large hand toward the small girl, waiting for her to take it.
