On the way, Lalisa received a call from Jihyun who said that Hyunsuk wanted to hold a press conference and also a shareholder's meeting of the Empire Group to introduce Jihyun to the public. She called Lalisa to ask for her opinions. Hearing this information, Lalisa pursed her lips. "I'm outside right now. Let's discuss it when I get home. I'll be home tomorrow."

Jihyun said, "Okay," and hung up. For some reason, now she would ask for her daughter's opinion no matter what happened.

After she hung up, Hyunsuk asked her. "What did Lili say?"

Lali has been out since yesterday. He wanted to discuss with her about the press conference but couldn't get a hold of her. He didn't know why she was so busy until he watched the news today.

"Lili said she had something to deal with and would come home tomorrow. Let's talk to her when she comes back." Jihyun looked at Hyunsuk awkwardly. "Lili had just come back to us and you're also a big surprise for her. She needs time to get adapted to it. Please... don't mind."

When she was in the hospital yesterday, she called him Dad, but now she found it was hard for her to call him that.

Hyunsuk knew Lalisa was very busy these days, and even busier than before, so he just nodded. "Okay, let's talk to her tomorrow."

"By the way, what about Lali?" To be honest, Jihyun was a bit nervous. She hadn't seen her niece. She often watched the news about her on TV before. She just thought this girl was really someone as she took over such a large corporation at such a young age and ran it well. But now this girl suddenly became her niece. Would she accept her?

"Lali has declared to support the Min's Group. What do you think she will think?" Hyunsuk laughed. "It doesn't matter how Lali thinks. What matters is how you think. Just tell me your decision after you discuss with Lili."

Jihyun cast a worried look at Hyunbin and the latter held her hand and comforted her in a lowered voice, "Yes, Dad is right. Don't scare yourself. They're your family."

Yeji who had known the truth, "..."

Of course it didn't matter how Lali thought, because Lali was just Lili!

At this time, Tang Zhong came in with a cellphone. He whispered to Hyunsuk, "Master..."

"How dare these people do this!" Hyunsuk angrily hit the ground with his crutch. Suddenly something occurred to him, and he suppressed his inner anger, looked at Jihyun and said gently, "Jihyun, let's go back to the capital. I want to introduce you to everyone."

Jihyun looked at him and asked him in worry, "Did something happen?"

Min Zhihe also looked Hyunsuk, asking, "Mr. Kwon, is there anything wrong with your company?"

Hyunsuk thought for a while and told them what had happened just now. Min Zhihe frowned. "That's not easy to deal with." Then he paused and continued, "Is it proper..." He took a look at Jihyun and asked, "to announce Jihyun's identity now?"

Hyunsuk said, "No problem. I'm still the largest shareholder of the Empire Group. I have the final say in the Empire Group, and I want to make it up to Jihyun."

"Dad." Jihyun looked at Hyunsuk and sighed. "You don't owe me anything."

Hyunsuk shook his head. "It's my fault that I failed to protect you and your mother."

When Jihyun heard he mentioned her mother, her eyes turned red. "Mother died because she tried to protect me..."

"Jihyun, you have nothing to do with your mother's death." Hyunsuk said seriously, "You don't have to feel guilty."
