[Exposed! Tiffany's child admitted to hospital three times, but Tiffany doesn't appear even once!]
[Rumor has it, Tiffany has no love for her child and her relationship with Taeyeon is based on mutual benefit]
[Best marriage of convenience acting: Tiffany's acting ability applied to her lies]
"According to the Entertainment Weekly's latest discovery, it has been revealed that Tiffany has no love for her son. While she was filming her latest film, it has been reported that her child was admitted to the hospital three times. But, Tiffany wasn't present even once. It seems, she has no concern for her child's health and it has been rumored that her relationship with Taeyeon has always been a marriage of convenience."
"After being made aware of this situation, we sent our reporters to investigate this matter at the hospital that Tiffany's child was admitted to. In the end, it was confirmed by the medical staff that Tiffany's son had indeed been sick multiple times, but Taeyeon was the only one they had ever seen. It seems, the rumors of a marriage of convenience may not have no basis."
"On top of that, we also interviewed the doctor that previously treated Tiffany's child. For the truth, please continue to watch the following video..."
"It is the hospital's mission to maintain confidentiality for its patients, so I have no right to reveal anything about the child's illness. But, during the multiple times that the child was admitted to the hospital, I had indeed not seen his mother even once, only the father," Tan Suling said calmly in the video that was playing.
"As for whether Tiffany loves her child, I'm afraid only she knows."
If her first few sentences didn't really suggest anything, her last sentence definitely did.
It obviously had a hidden meaning.
By saying what she did, Tan Suling was deliberately making people misunderstand the situation.
"It's not convenient for me to discuss any other matters. Thank you."
After the video was released, most people felt that it wasn't something that Tiffany would do; it didn't suit her character.
But...the doctor at the hospital had personally confirmed it: while her child was sick, not only did Tiffany not care for it, she didn't even appear at the hospital once. Was the image that she previously created, a complete facade?
Of course, this ignited the hatred of 'mother fans'. In their hearts, no matter what the situation was, Tiffany was already a mother. They could disregard that she couldn't provide care for her child, but she should at least visit it once while it was sick, right?
However, she didn't!
_"She deserves being criticized. Recently, when her child was seriously ill, she forcefully transferred it to another hospital, simply because our paediatrics specialist, Doctor Tan, had a few opinions about her. As a result, she completely ignored the well-being of her child and transferred him away."
_"Although Doctor Tan's words may have been a little harsh, it was for the sake of the child. She simply dislikes irresponsible parents. If they don't want to take care of it, they shouldn't have given birth to it in the first place."
_"Celebrities these days are nothing like the ones in the past. For the sake of their own interests, they would sacrifice anything."
In the end, the public simply had horrible words to say about Tiffany.
Seeing this, Taeyeon erupted in anger for the first time in his office. He had never paid attention to the medical field. Who would have thought that the industry was just as messed up and incapable of differentiating right from wrong.
Seeing Taeyeon in silence, Tiffany understood that he was angry. So, she gently held onto his hand to comfort him.
"It's my fault for not handling the PR properly and not protecting your reputation. Most importantly, I should have notified you about our son's condition earlier."
"How many storms have I come out of alive? Did you think I'd be afraid of a small bit of slandering?" Tiffany shook her head with a smile.
Taeyeon placed his hand on Tiffany's head and pulled it onto his shoulder.
"Don't worry, I will help you get justice."
The PR this time was difficult to manage. Doctors were a special group of people and the words that came out of their mouths always had a sense of authority. Plus, their responsibilty was to save lives and simply say things as they saw it. After all, it wasn't like they had any resources to compete with Tiffany for, so they had no reason to deliberately defame her.
With the added fact that modern society was filled with pressures and the majority of people developed paranoia, it was understandable that they would naturally assume the worst.
Soon, the director of 'Survivor' gave Taeyeon a phone call, "President Kim, Tiffany's situation is getting out of hand. Please hurry and resolve it before it affects the films reputation and progress."
"Don't worry," Taeyeon replied with two simple words.
Meanwhile, Tiffany remained as calm as ever. Apart from making a few phone calls to Bo-ra to check on Hyun hyun's condition, she did not take the current scandal to heart; after being defamed so many times, she had already gotten used to it.
But, Taeyeon knew that if Crown Empire was to speak up at this time, it would simply feel like they were making excuses. So, he instead thought of Bo-ra.
After seeing the news, Bo-ra expressed her disgust towards Tan Suling. Even if Taeyeon didn't ask her, she would have stepped out and vouched for Tiffany anyway.
"Hyun hyun is currently being treated at the military hospital because his weak immune system has triggered a fever. He is not in a serious condition as per the rumors and is not in a life or death situation," Bo-ra released a copy of Hyun hyun's examination results.
"Also, I would like to clarify the reason why Tiffany decided to transfer her son to another hospital. Firstly, Hyun hyun had a fever and a slight lung infection, so Tiffany asked a particular Doctor Tan for help. However, due to her own personal emotions, this particular doctor lectured Tiffany. At first, Tiffany did not respond. But, the doctor was completely immoral and ended up saying that she wouldn't treat the child because it had a mother like Tiffany. Since she wouldn't treat the child, Tiffany had no choice but to find another capable doctor. As a result, she contacted me. Was she wrong for doing that?"
"Secondly, in regards to the rumor that Tiffany did not show up at the hospital while her son was ill, I would like to ask if anyone has considered that there may be a reason for this? For example, it could be possible that Tiffany did not know about this matter from the start. Everyone knows that my brother-in-law is famous for doting his wife. To prevent Tiffany from being worried, it was completely possible for him to take on this entire problem without telling her. Most importantly, I would like to say one thing: a certain doctor at a certain hospital should take note of their own image before they go around lecturing others."
"As a doctor that demands parents to care for their children 24 hours a day, has she not considered that she will be held liable for these words? For those that are already parents, how many of you are capable of prioritizing your children at all times of the day. Isn't 24 hours too tiring?"
"After what I've said today, you are free to believe what you want. But, those that spread rumors about my nephew being seriously ill should disperse and get some good karma for themselves."
...
Regardless of the truth, it was certain that Hyun hyun was not seriously ill.
As for Bo-ra's words, they reminded all the parent's in the nation that not every doctor knew how to be responsible. In particular, those parents that had previously been tormented by Tan Suling were well aware of this.
_"I never thought that this doctor was still around. Although her medical skills are not bad, there's definitely something wrong with her. Previously, when my mother took my child to see her, she requested my mother to watch over him through the entire night without sleeping. Even though my mother is already old, she told my mother that she can't allow the child to feel like no one cares about it. Is she mentally ill?"
_"This doctor is very difficult to deal with. I definitely think that Tiffany has been framed."
_"The FT Awards are about to commence. From the looks of it, someone is deliberately slandering Tiffany."
_"I don't care about anything else, but they've gone too far with their slandering. This has always been Tiffany's family business. Their child was sick, so the couple were in a panic, yet the doctor stabbed them in the back at this time. How heartbreaking."
_"I'm going to keep paying attention to this news. Perhaps there's a chance of turning the tables."
These days, whenever news appeared in the entertainment industry, the public would have to pay close attention to it for a few days before they'd find out the truth. Because, right and wrong wasn't something that could be easily distinguished with the human eye.
However, Bo-ra's words did indeed anger Tan Suling.
It was only right for a mother to take care of her child.
So what if a doctor criticized a mother a little? Was her heart made of glass? Couldn't she handle it?
"When a child's immune system weakens, it is unpredictable. In some cases, it could even lead to premature death. How is that not a serious illness? Especially since he fell sick multiple times?"
"When I request parents to take care of their children, I don't expect them to provide round-the-clock care. But, when a child is admitted to hospital, they are obviously sick. If a parent can't show a bit of love at this time, when are they planning to show it?"
"Plus, it is the truth that Tiffany doesn't care about her son. I didn't lie. Why should I be the one to take note of my image?"
"I am an upstanding citizen. It must be because 'someone' is Tiffany's sister, so she's bound to speak up for her family."
...
"F*cken b*tch, is she mentally ill?" even Sunny, who had just become a mother, couldn't help but swear after seeing Tan Suling's interview. "Is this doctor's brain made of bean curd?"
"Who knows. All I know is, this battle has already spread from the entertainment industry, across the entire medical field," Sooyoung replied as he sat beside Sunny and cut some fruit.
"Will it affect Tiffany's chances at the FT Awards?"
"What kind of effect would it have?"
Understanding the situation, Sunny relaxed and nodded her head, "As long as there is no effect, then everything is good."
But, now that the situation had gotten to this point, if Taeyeon didn't teach Tan Suling a lesson, she would have no idea who she had provoked.
In reality, the hospital chief of Tan Suling's hospital had wanted to get rid of her for a long time. However, as time went by, he found it harder to find a reason to dismiss her.
Normally, when a person's character was confirmed as problematic and they made people around them uncomfortable, they were bound to become a target in everyone's eyes. Plenty of people would discuss how bad they were behind their backs and point out all their negative traits.
So, while the iron was hot, the hospital chief decided to speak to Tan Suling, "Suling, to be honest, you are a capable person. After servicing our hospital for so long, your professionalism is apparent and you are one of our best doctors. However...you've offended Crown Empire this time. Our hospital can't handle this drama, so we've decided to ask you to leave."
The hospital chief was actually being very polite...
If it was someone else, they would have already erupted in anger.
Tan Suling felt her pride had been hurt and assumed that Crown Empire was behind all this, so she replied, "You will definitely regret this."
"I am a righteous doctor who saves the dying and treats the injured. I have already treated a countless number of people. Yet, you are treating me this way because of some dirty underhanded deal you made. You sure disappoint me."
However, Tan Suling didn't only say this to the hospital chief. She also repeated it to the media.
"Everything has happened too abruptly. I was dismissed by the hospital because I offended Crown Empire and the hospital didn't want to attract trouble."
Some people immediately laughed at her for being too straightforward and speaking recklessly. But, there were also some people that stuck up for her unfair treatment.
_"It's not the first time that Crown Empire has done whatever they wanted. Being dismissed is already a small punishment. This doctor is so pitiful."
_"Who told her to offend Taeyeon? She sure deserves sympathy."
_"No, Crown Empire can't keep using methods like this to solve their problems..."
But, in reality, Crown Empire was completely unaware of all this...
"From the looks of it, this Tan Suling is so disliked that even the hospital chief can't stand her. The news was only released not long ago, yet he couldn't wait to get rid of her. If he wants Crown Empire to shoulder the blame, he has sure dealt a good hand of cards. It seems, all roads lead to Crown Empire and all blame should be directed towards us."
These were Chanyeol's words.
But, if they wanted Taeyeon to take the blame...they had picked the wrong person.
"Go speak to the doctor's at the hospital. I'm sure we will find some clues," Taeyeon instructed. If they didn't do something, this matter would simply conclude as suppression from Crown Empire.
"Don't worry, I'll have something for you very soon." Collecting information wasn't something that only Sooyoung could do. Chanyeol was also good at it.
Although the matter stemmed from Hyun hyun being sick, negativity like this also affected Crown Empire's reputation.
Soon, Chanyeol received news from his source that evidence had been secured. It was proof that there was something wrong with Tan Suling's personality and that the hospital had long struggled to tolerate it.
If they wanted to bully someone, how dare they bully Crown Empire?
Afterwards, Chanyeol reported this matter to Tiffany over the phone and Tiffany replied, "Deal with it the way that it should be dealt."
After being slandered so many times, Tiffany had long become indifferent towards it. But, that didn't mean she was willing to forgive Tan Suling.
Her casual attitude meant that Taeyeon could do whatever he wanted. But, if Taeyeon made a move...both Tan Suling and the hospital were going to suffer pitifully.
"Make an appointment with the hospital chief. I will personally meet with him."
'Personally'. As soon as Chanyeol heard this word, he knew a good show was on its way.
So, without wasting a second, Chanyeol pretended to be an heir of a rich family and asked to see the hospital chief at a hotel regarding one of his sick relatives.
But, in reality, not only was Taeyeon waiting for the hospital chief, he was also accompanied by the most authoritative reporter in Korea.
Offending Taeyeon never ended well. The most this hospital chief could hope for was to not end up too pitiful.
The FT Awards was on the horizon. Chanyeol understood that Taeyeon wanted to resolve this matter before the awards ceremony because he wanted everyone to view Tiffany as the most perfect woman.
So, the next morning, Taeyeon went to see the hospital chief.
The hospital chief had no idea what was awaiting him. He thought a rich family wanted to meet with him to discuss the condition of a family member. But, as soon as he opened the door to the private room in the hotel, he was stunned. Because, apart from the media, there was also Taeyeon...
"I must have stumbled into the wrong room," the hospital chief turned around to leave. He honestly thought he had entered the wrong room. But, Taeyeon quickly stopped him.
"Chief Lin, you are in the right room," Taeyeon's voice was deep and powerful, shocking everyone in the room.
Meanwhile, Chief Lin's face did not look so good...
"What? If I understand correctly, according to what your hospital has previously said, we appear to be quite well acquainted. But it seems, Chief Lin doesn't want to see me," Taeyeon said with a smile.
Chief Lin was filled with hesitation. In the end, he had no choice but to step into the room and sit down opposite Taeyeon.
However, after sitting down, he felt extremely uncomfortable; Taeyeon was surrounded by cameras.
Plus, one glance at Taeyeon was enough to make one jump back in fear because he was much too intimidating.
"Mr. Kim, if you wanted to see me, you didn't have to go to such efforts..."
"If I didn't do this, I don't think I would have been able to see Chief Lin," Taeyeon said with a deeper meaning. Afterwards, his expression turned cold with a slight sternness and danger, "I simply want to know what Crown Empire has done to your hospital to make you so afraid that you'd dismiss one of your staff."
"That..."
"Rumor has it that Crown Empire has been applying pressure on you, Chief Lin. Has Crown Empire actually done that? According to Doctor Tan, we made some kind of dirty underhanded agreement."
"After I heard this, I was extremely angry. As if my almighty entertainment empire would need to make a deal over a silly doctor."
"I personally don't think Doctor Tan is at the level that requires that amount of attention, do you?"
Chief Lin was hard pressed. He never imagined that these rumors would be formed. Nor had he imagined that Taeyeon would personally come looking for him. This wasn't a problem that was suppose to exist, but now that he was forced to take responsibility, what was he to say to save his pride?
"I think Doctor Tan must have a misunderstanding..."
"In that case, can Chief Lin please explain why he dismissed Doctor Tan?"
"Well..." Chief Lin froze.
"You can't answer me, can you? That's fine, I can answer on your behalf." After speaking, Taeyeon pulled out his phone and played some voice recordings.
In front of all the media...
"Tan Suling, eh? Who in the hospital doesn't know about her? Her EQ is famous for being low and she often offends patient's family members. She's caused problems quite a few times. So much so that the hospital chief has wanted to fire her for a long time."
"I'm not making this up. That Tan Suling is crazy. She's turned the hospital into a place of filth."
"Previously, during one of our meetings, she put the hospital chief in a difficult situation. At that time, the hospital chief already wanted to get rid of her."
"I think about 80% of the people in the hospital want Tan Suling gone."
"All these recordings come from doctors that work at your hospital. We can tell from these recordings that no one likes Tan Suling. So, you decided to use the excuse that she angered Crown Empire to dismiss her. Isn't that right?"
"Of course not," Chief Lin immediately denied.
"Then what reason did you have?" Taeyeon asked.
However, Chief Lin stuttered for a while without giving an explanation.
"Tan Suling has released her negativity upon Crown Empire, but what have we done wrong?" Taeyeon asked as he put away his phone. "You've picked on the wrong person, Chief Lin."
"Whether it's Crown Empire or I, your position is the same. You can't afford to offend either of us. So, stop dreaming about brushing the blame onto us. We will not shoulder the blame of dismissing Tan Suling..."
Chief Lin's face suddenly alternated between red and white.
"If it wasn't because my wife was implicated, I would never meet with a measly hospital chief like you. Now that things are clear, if you still refuse to clarify everything with the public, don't blame me for being truly heartless. This is what you call applying pressure."
In front of the cameras, Taeyeon appeared truly angered.
His every word was filled with danger, making those that heard it, subconsciously sweat in fear.
"I have no interest in your personal grudges, but I will not allow you to implicate Crown Empire and my wife!"
His last few words were reminiscent of a devil giving an order. As soon as Chief Lin heard it, he felt like he had to immediately clarify the situation, because he would never want to truly anger Taeyeon.
"Mr. Kim, I'm so sorry. We were also afraid of the rumors, that's why Crown Empire became implicated. I am honestly sorry," Chief Lin explained with sincerity before he turned to the media "This entire matter is a personal matter between Tan Suling and I. It has nothing to do with Crown Empire. I hope the public don't misunderstand."
"Since it's a misunderstanding, please clarify the real reason behind Tan Suling's dismissal."
"This is an internal matter at our hospital. Can you let us handle it amongst ourselves?" Chief Lin tried to negotiate.
"When the public decided to criticize Crown Empire, no one tried to negotiate with us at that time," Taeyeon said in a stern voice. "When people were insulting my wife because of Tan Suling, no one discussed it with us either. But, I want to discuss every little matter."
Chief Lin was left helpless. He simply let out a deep sigh as he turned unwillingly towards the media and explained, "Our hospital must admit that Tan Suling is a talented doctor. But..."
"...she is also the doctor that we've received the most complaints about. It's not that she treats the patients unwell, but she is always rude to the patient's family members. At the same time, she is also the doctor that has received the most internal complaints as well. Due to her own personal emotions, she has made the workplace uncomfortable for her colleagues. It is because of this that the hospital decided to dismiss her."
"I will hereby represent the hospital in apologizing to President Kim for making the public misunderstand Crown Empire. I hope President Kim can forgive us. We have indeed handled this matter inappropriately and have let down everyone's trust."
"As for Tan Suling's issue," Taeyeon followed on, "Hyun hyun was sick so I took my son to the hospital. Doctor Tan did not see Tiffany so she requested for the mother to come with the child next time."
"But, this was not the first time that Hyun hyun had a fever. Plus, his immune system was getting weaker. So, I decided not to tell Tiffany because I knew she'd drop everything on set and return home. She is the female lead; the main focus of the entire cast. I couldn't let her throw aside so much work and abandon the entire crew. So, I kept the matter a secret from her."
"But, Doctor Tan ended up developing a bias towards my wife, simply because she never saw her."
"During Hyun hyun's most recent fever, Tiffany took leave from filming and rushed home during the night. She then took Hyun hyun to the hospital the next day. However, she had to put up with Doctor Tan's blame."
"This is the entire story."
"Tiffany and I are not in a marriage of convenience. I love my wife more than anything."
"There was indeed mutual benefit between us. But, the benefit was each other's love."
Hearing this, the reporters couldn't help but ask,
_"If Tiffany has really upheld her responsibilty as a mother, why is the child's immune system getting weaker? Wasn't it because the problems already started from when she was pregnant?"
Hearing this, Taeyeon suddenly laughed.
"Hyun hyun did indeed have issues with development when he was still in the womb, that's why after he was born, he has been often sick," Taeyeon replied honestly.
The reporters did not expect Taeyeon to answer in this way as their eyes grew wide in surprise.
Was it true that Tiffany did not consider her child's health as far back as when she was still pregnant?
"But, that's because..."
"...my wife gave birth to twins."
_"Huh...?"
The reporters froze in shock. Were they hearing things? What did Taeyeon just say? Tiffany gave birth to twins?
"Hyun hyun was discovered late and had developed slowly, so he did not absorb as much nutrients as his older brother. Hence, his immune system is a little weak."
With these words, everyone finally understood the situation. Those that had given birth to twins were well aware that it was common for twins to develop very differently and it was extremely normal for the younger brother to be weaker than the older brother.
_"So that's what happened..."
_"Tiffany actually gave birth to twins without anyone knowing..."
_"It must be tough to take care of two kids. No wonder President Kim's heart ached for Tiffany to the point where he didn't want her to know that her son was ill."
The reporters at the scene began to discuss the issue.
"Does everyone still have questions?"
Everything was already clear: Tan Suling was skilled, but she didn't know how to behave as a person, as a result, she was dismissed by the hospital. The entire incident had absolutely nothing to do with pressures from Crown Empire as rumored by the public.
With so many people complaining about Tan Suling, it was obvious that she was not a very likeable person.
So, to prevent Tan Suling from causing trouble for them, they threw the blame onto Crown Empire and let everyone think that Crown Empire had done something dirty to forcefully oppress their innocent and pure white-cloaked angel. Unfortunately, Taeyeon wasn't a normal person and he would never let others throw the blame on him.
Who was Taeyeon and who was Tiffany? The two of them never provoked anyone, but when others provoked them, they would not hide in fear. They would find the truth and get justice for themselves.
_"President Kim, will you reveal a photo of the twins?"
_"President Kim, will the two babies end up in the entertainment industry?"
Seeing that the reporters were no longer asking questions related to the scandal, Taeyeon neatened his shirt and stood up from the sofa.
The issue had been clarified, but the punishment was not enough.
Of course, Chief Lin was already prepared for the hospital to be attacked. But because Tan Suling was indeed immoral, the hospital did not need to shoulder much responsibilty. Tan Suling, on the other hand, wasn't going to be well off.
However, the most unexpected thing for Chief Lin was yet to come...
...
Taeyeon personally clarified all of Tiffany's scandals and expressed that he and Tiffany were a normal couple. On top of that, he also revealed that they had a pair of twin boys.
After this incident, the truth was finally restored. However, the public's attention was redirected towards Tan Suling.
They were curious what she had done to make everyone turn against her and hate her so much.
So, a lot of people began to dig into her past and discovered she had indeed been reported by the family members of patients because she acted a little crazy.
_"Although a doctor's responsibilty is to put in their best efforts for their patient, they are also expected to reassure the patient's family members. Don't you think a doctor that blames the family for no reason is a bit strange?"
_"It's a shame to see such a beautiful woman act like this. I feel like she may have a serious case of paranoia."
_"I am a student of psychology. Let me leave Doctor Tan my contact details. I truly think she is mentally unstable."
_"When a small portion of people dislike one person, it could be due to jealousy. But, when a huge amount of people dislike them, there's definitely something wrong with this person's character. No wonder Tiffany transferred her child to another hospital. It's totally understandable!"
Tan Suling never expected that the situation would change so dramatically in such a short period of time and that so many people would attack her.
So, Father Tan and Mother Tan had no choice but to comfort their daughter, "Honey, I've made an appointment for you to see one of the best psychologists. Why don't I go there with you tomorrow?"
"Mom, do you also think that I am sick?"
"You are indeed sick," Father Tan replied straightforwardly, "You have a serious case of paranoia."
Tan Suling never expected that even her parents would misunderstand her. So, with a burst of anger, she stormed out of the house. However, as she wandered out onto the streets, she discovered everyone was pointing at her and judging her. Worst of all, she realized at this moment that she didn't even have a single friend.
_"This woman is crazy. Let's not get too close to her."
_"She calls herself a doctor when she doesn't even know she is sick herself. What a joke!"
Tang Suling felt extremely wronged. After all, she only had one intention as a doctor: she simply hoped for the best for the children she treated.
She thought she was a righteous person that had been misunderstood by the world.
But, after this incident, Tiffany was the one that seemed to have run out of things for people to slander about. After all, everything that appeared worthy of slander, had been cast aside.
The FT Awards Ceremony was to held that night and Taeyeon had stepped out that very afternoon to clarify for his wife.
Tiffany felt, apart from acting, she was just a normal person. So, after having children, she hoped to be treated like a normal person.
But...one had no choice within the entertainment industry...
That evening, Taeyeon returned home to find Tiffany in a daze on the sofa, "Why aren't you ready yet? We are heading out soon."
Tiffany laughed and walked towards the wardrobe. However, she suddenly turned around halfway and said to Taeyeon, "I'm thinking whether I should treat everyone openly from now on and greet every reporter I meet."
Taeyeon immediately understood what Tiffany was thinking, but he felt that she should do whatever she felt like doing.
To keep his wife company at the awards ceremony, Taeyeon also changed into a set of formal wear. Dressed in a dark blue vintage double-breasted suit, with his hair slicked back and an air of nobility, he was the perfect support for Tiffany.
No matter how old he was, Taeyeon was still Taeyeon.
On his face, there were no signs of aging.
Soon, Tiffany also completed her look and stepped out wearing a starry ocean-blue gown, looking refined with her star themed accessories. The Tiffany at this moment was like the world's most beautiful scenery for Taeyeon.
"Let's go..."
Today was an important day for Tiffany.
Although she didn't show it, Taeyeon could sense her nervousness.
After all, who didn't want to win Best Actress?
It had been one year.
The bloody scene that lead to winning The Best Newcomer Award was still clear in their minds. Yet, in the blink of an eye, one year had passed and all her previous competitors had disappeared.
"Why are you trembling?" Taeyeon noticed there was something abnormal about Tiffany while they drove towards the venue.
"I feel like something will go wrong. Nothing ever seems to run smoothly for me," Tiffany laughed bitterly.
"Nothing will go wrong," Taeyeon held onto Tiffany's hand tightly. The couple had been married for two years now and their love was deeply embedded in their bones. Tiffany was indeed nervous, but with Taeyeon's reassurance, she suddenly calmed down. With this man by her side, did it matter whether she won an award or not?
Soon, the black Rolls Royce pulled up at the scene of the FT Awards Ceremony. At the head of the red carpet, Tiffany stepped out holding Taeyeon's hand. With the appearance of the couple, the reporters were so excited that they almost pushed over the barriers. However, with Taeyeon around, even if they wanted to, they would never have the courage to do it.
"Tiffany...Taeyeon..."
"Tiffany...Look over here..."
"Daddy Tae, hold onto our Fany tightly. Protect her well," a few fans holding LED light-up signs cried. Tiffany couldn't help but look over and smile. In response, Taeyeon pulled Tiffany into his arms. The affection shown by the couple made the fans scream in excitement.
Tiffany enjoyed living in seclusion and after becoming an actress, she barely appeared on variety programmes, let alone accept any interviews. She had only made an appearance because of a few personal matters. So, it was rare for fans to see her, not to mention seeing her together with Taeyeon.
The host of the awards ceremony was standing in front of the signing wall. As soon as he saw the couple, he naturally greeted them. Because of Taeyeon's presence, he did not dare to make a single joke with Tiffany. Especially since the vibe she gave off felt like she wasn't here to receive an award, but here to simply observe.
_"Our President Kim sure knows how to be considerate towards his wife, protecting her at all times. However, as the host of this event, I would like to ask a question. Could you please tell us the current condition of your baby?"
_"He is fine at the moment. Thank you everyone for your concern," Tiffany replied seriously. "I know that my son's illness has caused a huge commotion in Korea. I'm sorry if it has upset anyone."
Tiffany's words sounded honestly apologetic and especially sincere. In fact, she even sounded slightly wronged.
This made the host respond, "I believe, as a mother, you've already done all that you can. I know that you always try your best, no matter what identity you take on, so being a mother would be no different."
"We also believe you," Tiffany's fans squealed in support from behind. "You are the undisputed 'Queen' tonight!"
Actually tonight, apart from the hot presence of Tiffany and Taeyeon, there was also another king-like figure who had just returned from overseas. A man that was once very famous in Korea.
Soon, the one-hour red carpet time ended and Tiffany and Taeyeon found their way to their seats. There were plenty of familiar faces, including Chang-wook and other actors that Tiffany had previously worked with. Yuri was also amongst the invited guests, but he had always been quite childish. So, events like this depended on his mood.
Big names in the hosting world made witty remarks on stage and the opening song and dance was performed by the hottest musical group.
Tiffany heard people around her gossiping about the big shot that was returning today, so she shook Taeyeon's hand, "It seems, there are still some things in this industry that I'm not aware of."
"Are you referring to the man that's returning today?" Taeyeon asked.
"Uh huh."
"I'll tell you about him after we return home," Taeyeon said gently beside Tiffany's ear. "Let's first watch the awards ceremony."
The awards ceremony this year was relatively spectacular due to the great productions released in the past year. Amongst these were productions that involved people that Tiffany knew. Even Irene went home with The Most Potential Newcomer Award. It was at this time that Tiffany noticed Suho and Irene were sitting two rows behind them.
As Irene held onto her trophy, she looked towards Tiffany and waved her right hand.
"Following on, we will be presenting the most important FT Awards. It is once again time for our annual Best Actor and Best Actress awards. To pick out the most outstanding actors, our judges almost get into fights in the backstage every year."
"Please give a round of applause as we welcome our special guests to the stage to present the awards."
The first guest presenter was an old school scriptwriter who had previously won many big international awards. Accompanying him was the second guest, an internationally renowned professional film critic.
One was old, the other was young; one was fat, the other was skinny. The two men supported each other and headed onto the stage, before the old scriptwriter began speaking first.
"When the organizers first invited me to present this award, I was quite surprised. As everyone is aware, I am an extremely honest person. If the person I'm presenting to is not someone that meets my standards, I will have my opinions and even refuse to present the award."
"So, I watched the films produced by all the nominees before I came here."
"I am a person that's very critical when it comes to storylines, so my expectations for actors are also very high. I mean, which scriptwriter would let their creation go to waste in the hands of an actor?"
"Fortunately, The FT Awards maintained its fairness and the nominees this year were indisputable. So, I can understand why the judges put on quite a battle in the backstage."
At this time, the film critic began to speak, "You've said it perfectly. A good production is something that the entire industry aims for. And good actors are needed for a script to be portrayed to its full potential."
"The films that I acknowledge are the ones that deserve love from everyone around the world because it displays good values and expresses the most sincere emotions, allowing people around the world to relate to it. A production like this is hard to fault, and I happen to know one such production which has been well received around the world."
"Hurry and tell us which production you're talking about!"
The film critic looked towards Taeyeon and Tiffany and replied, "'Stupid'. As I'm aware, this film performed so well in the United States that it got better results than films produced in the American domestic market. It has even been added to the latest study material for scriptwriters, setting an example for scriptwriting. This is the first time something like this has happened."
"While we're on this topic, I must say that I deeply admire President Kim from Crown Empire."
After hearing this, Taeyeon gently nodded thankfully towards the man.
"OK, enough with straying off-topic. Let's see which outstanding actors will receive this year's most prestigious awards. Please turn your attention to the big screen." After speaking, the film critic turned everyone's focus towards the big screen behind them.
Soon, a clear voice resonated from the screen.
"The recipient of this year's FT Best Actress Award is..."
At this moment, the spotlights alternated between the nominees of the award and the atmosphere was filled with suspense...
