Chapter 62
While being scared senseless, Jung-Hee's mind refused to function properly. The only things that entered her rattled brain was the sight of Hyun's ghostly pale face, and the sound of his harsh pants as he fought with all his might.
A split second later, though, her brain rebooted and she could finally think clearly again. So what if they were going to die? Should she just tremble in fear and accept death gracefully instead of putting up a fight? Thinking back carefully, she suddenly realized that they were already living on borrowed time. Had it not been for the help they received so far, and Heaven protecting them all this while, they would have been long dead by now.
After finding her resolve, Jung-Hee nervously moved her eyes towards the man who was standing in front of her. He was taller and definitely much stronger than her, with sturdy muscles and powerful strides. How could she even hope to win against such a person?
