Chapter 182: He was tied up and gagged Of all the things I would’ve expected from Seo-Jun, this was the least. It was something I never... Something I just couldn’t have imagined him doing. But was I mad? Was I upset? Yes. I was mad. I was red with rage but was it at him? No. It was at the creature he had dragged in, tied with the rope in his hand. I’d say Seo-Jun did a really good job, degrading that man with the same blood flowing through my veins into nothing but an animal, but that wasn’t enough. He, who had subjected me to several long years of torment just for his own greed and selfishness... It was not enough to simply drag him in like an animal. Heck, we were all animals so this was not enough. If Seo-Jun was going to do something like this, he could’ve at least done it properly. To that man who thought it was alright to burden me with loans for his own selfish interest, he deserved far worse treatment than everything I had ever received up until my death during my past life. "I brought your brother." Seo-Jun announced and I quickly covered my mouth, fighting the urge to throw up. The man he had dragged in was my brother with brown hair and brown eyes, an appearance that could easily be overlooked and faded into the background. He had nothing to show for it. Memories started surfacing in my head. Memories that I didn’t want to even remember. Memories from my past life. I wondered, at times, what he used that money he got with little to no effort for. And I wondered if he was living a good life. I wondered what I would do or say the next time I saw him after all of that. And if he did something productive and was making a name for himself while I was subject to such torture, then I would’ve cursed him to my last breath, but it funny how I didn’t even think of him during my last moments. I cursed the ones who were with me till the moment I gave up and not the ones who forced me into that situation. I probably couldn’t think of him anymore after everything that had happened. But look at this. Look at that pathetic-looking man on his knees. Did he look like he did something productive? He looked like someone who had been suffering for years. Only his appearance told me that he wasn’t someone who spent the money he got from the loan sharks productively. He was tied up and gagged, staring at me with shaky eyes had red veins crawling all around that I wondered if he could even see clearly. His cheeks were sunken like someone who had starved for a year at max, he was nothing but skin and bones that even my condition before being brought to this mansion would seem like I had been living healthily. Was he sick? Maybe. He must be doing drugs. I clenched my fists, my eyes shaking in rage. It made me even more angry than knowing that he did not amount to anything with that huge sum of money. Though, I wished he suffered more than anything, more than me but what was this? Why was he actually suffering after doing that to me, his blood brother? Didn’t he have some kind of grand plan that made him sacrifice me? Just why? Was it all for his selfishness and greed? Was he so blinded by that? "Arghhhh!" I suddenly picked up a plate and threw it at him. I didn’t plan to hold back my anger. I wasn’t going to be considerate, not when the feelings of rage and despair kept washing over me like a hurricane. "Why?!" I yelled, my eyes tearing up in bitterness. "Why did you bring him here?" There goes my appetite. "It’s because someone has to pay," Seo-Jun answered, the proud smirk on his lips sticking out loudly. "You hate him, right? You hate him because you had to suffer for five years out in the world where you couldn’t escape. You hate him for every single bad thing that has happened to you until this moment but you couldn’t do anything about it because you never knew where to find him. And even if you did find him, what could you have done? Against a Beta, you’re probably powerless and if you try to get into a fight, you’d be the one to lose. So, you couldn’t do anything even if you wanted to." Seo-Jun was speaking such cruel facts that it hurt my heart to a certain degree. Did he then bring him over to explain how powerless I was in the world or was he trying to give me a reason to vent out my hatred and frustration? To expose the kind of thoughts that I’ve entertained this far towards someone who put me into misery? No, Seo-Jun probably doesn’t have that thought since all he knows is that I’ve suffered for five years running from loan sharks, but he doesn’t know about my part of life where I had to go through more than five years of sexual torment in their hands. He doesn’t know how many times I had my bones broken, my neck strangled, and my hair pulled while I had my ass plowed like the soil in the ground multiple times. Their cruel treatment, he has no idea of it. So, he doesn’t know the extent of my hatred. The extent of my pain. And just as I thought, the reason Seo-Jun brought him there was not to expose me or anything like that but to prove that he could be of help to me as well. "I want you to have your revenge, Hwang Jo-Pil. Take revenge on this man that has made you suffer. He’s been suffering all this while but that has nothing to do with you. He subjected himself to that fate and was yet to receive the punishment for what he did to you, so..." He tossed the rope towards me, and it landed on the floor. "Take your revenge." Instead of hurting me like he’s been for a while now, he decided to be productive and start trying to win my trust. But... I clenched my fists. ...this was not enough for me to trust him.
