The Author's POV

Chapter 582

Krrr—!

Opening his eyes, Jin turned to face the door. Slowly, he stood up as a frown emerged on his brows.

'Did something happen?'

He wondered to himself as the light began to spill into the room and the doors slowly started to open.

It didn't take long for the doors to open, and given that Jin had no trouble with the light as his eyes were instantly able to adjust themselves to the sudden shift in lighting, he was able to see who was behind the doors.

"Kevin?"

And he was surprised to see Kevin standing on the other side of the door. He had a rather gloomy look on his face at the moment.

"Hey."

Kevin lazily waved at Jin.

"How did you come here?"

Jin asked as he looked behind Kevin and noticed Ren and a couple of other familiar figures.

"Amanda? Emma?"

What was going on?

How come everyone was here? Something about the situation was off-putting.

Turning his head to gaze in Kevin's direction, he was met by his fierce glare.

"I know what you're about to ask, and so I'm telling you now to keep those thoughts to yourself."

Jin raised his brow.

"What did I do?"

Taken aback by Kevin's sudden aggressive stance, Jin looked toward the others who shook their heads.

'What happened to him?'

Not once had he ever seen Kevin this fierce.

The Kevin he knew was different. He was more naive and a bit of a pushover. What prompted the sudden change?

"Hurry up and get out."

Jolting Jin out of his thoughts was Ren's voice as he urged him to get out of the room.

Though not exactly pleased with Ren's tone, Jin did as he asked and walked out of the room.

It was then that he noticed that there were even more people waiting behind.

"What's going on?"

His confusion only grew as his eyes paused on them, and he turned to look at Ren.

"Are they?"

"It's a long story."

Ren waved his hand, signaling him to let go of the topic.

"We don't have much time to talk right now."

Turning to face the distance, he raised his voice.

"Are you done, Melissa?"

"Shut up."

He was met with a crisp voice. There was a noticeable annoyance in the voice as Jin immediately recognized whom the voice belonged to.

'Melissa.'

Jin thought.

His thoughts were rather complicated as he thought about her. He clearly remembered chasing after her in the past, but now that he had grown up, he found himself distancing from her.

'Do I still like her?'

Staring at Melissa's approaching figure, Jin eventually shook his head.
