"Tiffany, you've truly angered me," Xu Xin stormed over to Tiffany's room angrily with the intention to cause trouble. However, she discovered Tiffany was with Taeyeon. The couple were leaving Tiffany's room to go somewhere.
The timing was perfect...
Xu Xin wondered how the almighty President Kim would feel after he discovered his wife had been cheating on him.
So, she quickened her step and caught up to the couple just before they headed downstairs. "Fany unnie, there's something I want to talk to you about in private. Can we step aside and talk?"
However, Tiffany did not accept her request and replied, "I don't hide anything from my husband. If there's something you want to say, then say it."
"Are you sure?" Xu Xin asked with a trace of danger. "Are you really not worried that I'd reveal your ugly side to President Kim?"
"Give it a try," Tiffany replied straightforwardly. Of course, her gaze contained the same amount of danger.
Xu Xin looked deep into Tiffany's eyes and realized she wasn't afraid. So, she pulled out her phone, swiped to the photo she had previously taken and showed it to Taeyeon, "President Kim, the woman beside you, the wife that you love so dearly...she's been cheating behind your back!"
After saying these words, Xu Xin waited to witness Tiffany's fate. This man was Taeyeon. If Tiffany didn't receive a slap across her face, that would be quite a surprise. But...
...Taeyeon simply looked at Xu Xin coldly without a word.
"President Kim?"
Taeyeon looked at the phone and handed it back to Xu Xin, "Don't sneak a photo of my back next time. Your photography skills are horrible."
After hearing this, Xu Xin looked at Taeyeon in shock...
"Is this your so-called evidence?"
Xu Xin finally realized what had happened. So the man that had snuck out of Tiffany's room that night was Taeyeon. Yet, she not only thought Tiffany was having an affair, she even tried to threaten her!
All of a sudden, Xu Xin felt completely embarrassed, "Sorry...I'm sorry, but I think I had a misunderstanding."
"You misunderstood, but I didn't," Taeyeon held onto Tiffany's hand and clasped each finger tightly. "You've done something that my wife hates the most. How do you think I should deal with you?"
"Fany unnie, I won't do it again. Speak to President Kim for me. I won't do it again," Xu Xin immediately pleaded.
However, Tiffany simply glanced at Xu Xin casually and left the hotel with Taeyeon hand-in-hand.
She was going to keep Xu Xin hanging so she'd understand the true feeling of fear...
As a result, Xu Xin's fear indeed increase. After all, the public had always said that Tiffany never went easy on her enemies. So, who could she seek help from?
After thinking for a while, Xu Xin went to look for Seohyun.
Seeing Seohyun eating, Xu Xin ran over to her crying and sat down beside her, "Assistant Seohyun..."
"What is it?" Seohyun asked patiently. "Weren't you having fun threatening Fany unnie this morning. Why are you crying now?"
"I misunderstood Fany unnie. Could you please ask her to be magnanimous and forgive me? If this scandal gets exposed, it won't be good for the film either," Xu Xin tried to use the film as an excuse to stop Tiffany.
"Don't worry, Tiffany will consider the bigger picture," Seohyun replied.
"Really?"
"Mark my word," Seohyun smiled confidently, while her eyes contained a sense of kindness.
Xu Xin swallowed, aware that she had made a big mistake. She no longer had the courage to remain in front of Seohyun, so she directly returned to her room. That night, during filming, Tiffany didn't mention a thing. Hence, Xu Xin breathed a sigh of relief...
But...during lunchtime, Seohyun had spoken to the director in private.
"Director, did you know that Fany unnie has been receiving threats from someone?" Seohyun asked. "And do you know who this person is?"
Although the director could guess that it was Xu Xin, he did not dare to say her name. After all, he also felt guilty.
"Tiffany acknowledges your professionalism as a director and we have no right to question your private life. But, we hope that you can maintain your clarity. The fact that Xu Xin is brave enough to threaten Tiffany shows that she is willing to do anything to achieve her motives."
"I hope the director can look at the bigger picture and protect the reputation of the film. This is what you've promised President Kim the most."
After hearing this, the director's face turned red. He was obviously a bit uncomfortable since his secret had been exposed.
"As for what to do, I'm sure it is an easy thing for you to figure out. In the meantime, Tiffany will forget about this entire matter until filming is completed."
The director understood what Seohyun meant: Xu Xin wasn't someone that could be kept by one's side in the long term.
So Seohyun's words were a sharp reminder...
...that it was time to put things to an end.
Offending Tiffany was equivalent to getting on the wrong side of the entire Crown Empire.
This Xu Xin was much too brave.
Tiffany had already done enough to protect his pride by simply asking Seohyun to throw a few hints. So, it was only right for him to accept this favor.
"Don't worry, I will give Tiffany a satisfactory answer."
"After leaving this seat, I will also forget everything. You don't need to worry either."
The director nodded his head as a thankful gesture to Seohyun and Tiffany.
If he let Xu Xin blow this matter up and it got exposed, the consequences would be unimaginable...
So...the director looked into the distance knowingly...
...
That night, Taeyeon and Tiffany were out having dinner. Seeing that Tiffany was completely unaffected by Xu Xin, Taeyeon smiled and asked, "Did you know that someone slandered my wife today, so I was a bit upset?"
"There's nothing to be upset about. It's not the truth, so it's not necessary to blow the situation up," Tiffany replied. "There's no point wasting time on insignificant people."
"I'm upset because she actually dared to threaten you," Taeyeon place the steak that he had cut up in front of Tiffany, "She actually had the guts to do it."
Tiffany lowered her head and thought for a moment before she suddenly lifted her head and said, "TaeTae...I have a thought. I've actually considered it for a long time, but I'm not sure if you will agree."
Taeyeon put down the knife and fork in his hands and wiped the corner of Tiffany's lips with a napkin. He then said dotingly, "Tell me what it is. You know I've never been able to reject you."
However, Tiffany shook her head and looked at Taeyeon firmly, "I'll tell you after 'Survivor' finishes filming."
"OK, I'll wait then," Taeyeon patted Tiffany on the head, treating her like a precious gem as always, even though they were already parents of two children.
The director weighed out the situation and eventually decided to suppress Xu Xin with pressure.
So, he gave the screenwriter a phone call, and after a long chat, he finally achieved his motive.
However, during that entire night, Xu Xin felt that her every second on set was extremely hard to endure.
Not only had she treated Taeyeon as some wild stranger, she even thought Tiffany was having an affair and tried to threaten her.
Just the thought of it gave her chills. How was Tiffany planning to respond to it?
Later that night, Taeyeon delivered Tiffany back to the hotel and left Seohyun to take care of her. After Taeyeon left, Seohyun said to Tiffany, "Xu Xin is currently sitting beside the hotel pool, threatening to end her life. Do you want to see her? She's been begging for your forgiveness."
"Has she revealed the entire matter to the public yet?" Tiffany raised an eyebrow.
"From what she's said, observers will only assume that she saw President Kim's back and misunderstood you. That's it, nothing else. And the scene she's been causing to gain pity will only make people think that you bullied her, causing her to run around in a panic."
"I won't take part in this commotion because I don't want to waste any more time on her," Tiffany said as she removed her coat. "Let her continue with her act."
Seohyun smiled and nodded her head, "In that case, get some rest and I'll return to my room."
Tiffany gestured for Seohyun to go ahead, but at this time, Seohyun's phone suddenly rang. After glancing at the caller ID, Seohyun decided to ignore it. From the looks of it, it was definitely a call from Lee Young-Min.
"If you want to ignore him, why do you still have a method of contact that he can reach you on?"
It was obvious that Seohyun cared about him and didn't completely view him with disdain.
"Fany unnie..."
"Fine, I won't get involved with your private matters," Tiffany said before she entered the bathroom.
Seohyun returned to her room and let Xu Xin self-destruct by the poolside. Eventually, a passerby approached to join the crowd and check what was happening. But, after seeing that Tiffany did not show up, it was obvious that this insignificant nobody was trying to add to her act. In that case, none of the words that came out of her mouth meant anything.
Xu Xin continued putting on a scene until late into the night. Actually, her intention was to see how the director would react. But, it was obvious that he simply treated her like a convenient prostitute.
Xu Xin shivered in the cold night air, but no one cared. In the end, she had no choice but to return to her room and not let anyone continue to treat her like a joke.
The next day, Xu Xin stepped onto set and noticed the abnormal look in everyone's eyes. So she lifted her chest and walked confidently.
It wasn't like she had done anything wrong...
"Xu Xin..." After seeing Xu Xin, the director handed some documents he prepared to her. "This is the new script provided by the screenwriter. Both yours and Tiffany's screentime has been affected. Have a look."
Xu Xin received the script and flipped it open to have a look. That's when she discovered that her role, which was supposed to last until the end of the film, was now made to sacrifice herself as soon as she found her sister. As a result, her screentime was cut in half.
"Director..." Xu Xin wanted to reason with the director, but the director laughed and said, "This is the screenwriter's decision. There's nothing I can do about it. But, this actually works out. There's a new production that I'm familiar with. They are currently making preparations and I was planning on recommending you to them, but you were previously unavailable. So it all works out now," the director used a common tactic to brush off an annoying actor.
Not only had the new production not finished with its preparations, even if it was ready to begin filming and the director had recommended her, the production probably wouldn't accept her anyway.
But, was she really that oblivious to what the director was thinking?
As a result, she said quietly to the director, "Director, there's something I want to talk to you about."
"If there's something you want to say, then say it," the director replied.
"Are you not afraid that I'd reveal the matter between you and I to the public?"
"Haha, Xu Xin, if you want to self-destruct then go ahead. I wonder how many people will trust you. And even if they do, I wonder who will be affected more. I could always move to working behind-the-scenes and no longer appear in the public eye, but what about you?"
"If this matter gets revealed, do you think you'd still be able to survive in the entertainment industry?"
"You..."
Xu Xin never imagined that the director was even more shameless than she was.
"Do you remember what you said when you first seduced me? You said that you didn't want anything from me and that you were merely lonely...Don't tell me that I was the one that actually said those words..."
Xu Xin looked a bit uncomfortable, like she had swallowed a fly, but she deserved all that was happening to her. After all, she had provoked someone that she shouldn't have.
After enduring for a while, Xu Xin put away the script and said, "I hope you can follow through with your promise and recommend me to the other production."
"Of course," the director replied casually.
Xu Xin hated herself at that moment. From the moment she first debuted, even though her path hadn't been all glitz and glamor, noone had ever escaped from the palm of her hands. Yet, this time, she had slept with the director multiple times without gaining any benefits whatsoever.
It was all Tiffany's fault.
Seeing that Tiffany continued to be respected on set, Xu Xin reacted like she had been possessed.
But, it didn't matter. Even if her screentime had been cut in half, she was going to find an opportunity to get revenge. Since Tiffany made her suffer in such a way, she was going to make Tiffany suffer too.
Tiffany would have to wait and see!
Even from a distance, Seohyun could clearly see Xu Xin's expression and could tell that the director had made a move, so she approached Tiffany and said, "This woman might end up holding a grudge against you. We need to be careful from now on."
"Did you think that if we went easy on her, she would have been grateful?" Tiffany shook her head with a laugh. "If she had her way, then life would be much too unfair for everyone else, even though the industry is full of battles."
"I understand. From now on, I'll keep a close eye on her every move."
Xu Xin acted indifferent, but, she had no intention of letting the cast and crew of 'Survivor' off....
After this incident, Xu Xin quietened down a lot. But, this did not prevent Seohyun from keeping her guard up. Because, according to Tiffany's prediction, this was merely the calm before the storm.
"Xu Xin is about to complete her scenes. If she is smart, she will agree to the director's suggestion and move to another production."
"Do you think that she'd act stupidly?" Seohyun asked.
"What do you think?" There was a sense of wisdom in Tiffany's eyes. "If she is smart, she will know that pestering the director will merely put her in a worse position."
"I'm worried that she has plans to go down together," Seohyun concluded.
Xu Xin had been fully focused on acting over the past few days and didn't say much. It appeared, Seohyun's prediction was highly likely...
"I'll do some investigating and see who she's been meeting with lately."
Xu Xin filmed the rest of her scenes like normal. And finally, with an applause from the crew, she completed her parts in the film. At this time, Tiffany still had a few thousand scenes to film.
Seohyun had investigated Xu Xin, but did not discover anything. She simply noticed that she had been visiting the nearby medical clinic every now and then to get some pain killers.
"Perhaps we were being too paranoid," Seohyun reported.
Tiffany was quiet for a moment, but her thoughts weren't simple, "Although we promised that we wouldn't get involved in the director's private life, we should still warn him to be cautious of Xu Xin."
"Stuff like this is hard to say face-to-face," Seohyun replied.
After Xu Xin completed her filming, the director followed through with his promise and handed her a new script, "Call the contact that I've circled in this script. He will find a role for you."
"Director, come to my room tonight. There's something important that I want to talk to you about," Xu Xin said, pale-faced. "I'm pregnant with your child..."
The director froze in disbelief as he began to doubt her, "We used contraception..."
"But I still fell pregnant," Xu Xin replied seriously. "I'm not requesting for anything. It's simply not convenient for us to talk about it here. Whether you want to keep the child or not, come to my room tonight and tell me. I definitely won't cling to you."
"I can tell you over the phone..."
"You are the child's father. You should at least give it a proper farewell." After speaking, Xu Xin turned and left, leaving the director in a daze.
Needless to say, the director's mind was in a mess. In fact, he had no idea what to do. It was at this moment that his eyes met with Tiffany and Seohyun.
However, he quickly avoided Tiffany's gaze and pretended like nothing had happened.
Tiffany had a clear grasp of the situation, but she did not pressure the director. Instead, she waited until dinner before she finally said to him, "Director, this entire thing has always been a small matter. I hope it doesn't end on a sour note. Don't let the production get involved in too much filth, otherwise, I can't possibly remain."
"You need to be aware of your responsibilities."
The director let out a sigh and replied with his honest thoughts, "It's actually not an unreasonable thing for me to be with Xu Xin. I already had a divorce with my wife two years ago, so being with another woman doesn't tread on any moral grounds. It is just a simple relationship between a man and woman."
"Tiffany, I know that you don't like dirty acts like this; it is my fault for losing to temptation. But, I wasn't completely blinded by desire to the point where I let it affect the normal operations of the production."
"Since that's the case, the director should reveal the truth as soon as possible. You need to strike first before your enemy gains the advantage..." Tiffany said with an extra layer of meaning.
After hearing this, the director let out a laugh as his expression lightened and he raised a thumb at Tiffany, "You are indeed wise."
Tiffany did not say another word and simply smiled.
After all, no one hated dirty underhandedness as much as she did.
"I remember that Media wanted to do an interview with 'Survivor' not too long ago. The timing is just right..."
It was good that the director understood what to do.
As a result, Tiffany could finally relax. She no longer had to worry about the schemes that Xu Xin was plotting. As long as the director revealed everything, then the filth would never affect her, no matter how much Xu Xin threw it around. On the other hand, everyone naturally would feel sorry for the director after discovering the dark side of Xu Xin.
After completing her scenes, Xu Xin waited inside her hotel room for the director. But, she had no idea that he was in the middle of an interview with the media.
Apart from promoting 'Survivor', the director looked unusually happy. So, the media were curious.
-"Does the director have some kind of good news? You're glowing with joy."
"I'm not gonna lie. Previously, to protect the privacy of my family, I did not reveal that my ex-wife and I had finalized our divorce two years ago. But recently, I discovered I am about to become a father, so I want to take my child and its mother into consideration and prevent any misunderstandings."
-"In that case, we must congratulate you. I wonder who's the lucky woman?"
"It's our production's actress. The one that just completed her filming today, Xu Xin," the director unveiled in seriousness. "We met while filming. I hope everyone can give us their blessings."
-"That's great!"
In reality, the media didn't care about the director's private matters, but since he wanted to mention it, they naturally responded with their blessings.
Soon, news spread to the entire industry and Xu Xin received a phone call from her manager, "Why are you in a relationship with the director?"
Xu Xin was completely puzzled.
"How did you know?"
"The director revealed it to the public. Since you offended Crown Empire, I guess it's not a bad idea to find a source of support. Congratulations."
As soon as Xu Xin heard this, she opened her phone and did an online search...
In response, she smashed her phone on the floor. Her original plan was to destroy the director, but he ended up confessing his love for her and even told everyone that she was pregnant!
In reality, her stomach was empty. It was simply a lie to lure the director to her room. But now, she had shot herself in the foot.
If she was to reveal that she wasn't pregnant, the director could now turn around and accuse her of swindling him.
Soon, the director arrived as promised. But, unlike their usually secret encounters, he was now meeting her openly.
"Xu Xin..."
Xu Xin reminded herself to contain her anger. It was a good opportunity for her to test if the director was being sincere with her.
"I never thought that you had already gotten a divorce. Since you truly love me, let's enjoy our time together from now on," Xu Xin said gently.
"Of course, my precious. However, I must first take you to the hospital for a checkup to see if the baby is healthy. You did so many dangerous manoeuvres in the film, I'm a bit worried that it may have affected our child."
Xu Xin's expression immediately changed.
"What's wrong?" the director asked, even though he already knew the answer.
"I...It's too late right now. Let's go tomorrow, OK?"
The director nodded his head dotingly, "We'll do as you say."
Xu Xin overflowed with complex emotions. She had no idea whether the director was telling the truth or lying. But, it couldn't possibly be a lie. Even though the director wasn't stupid, he also wasn't the smartest when it came to relationships. After all, he couldn't even reject a woman's advancements; he couldn't have possibly changed so quickly. So, the only explanation that Xu Xin could think of was that the director truly loved her.
Even if he didn't, he at least wanted the child.
But unfortunately, there was no such child in her stomach!
.....
"Fany unnie, you are indeed amazing!" Seohyun praised after noticing the situation change. "We now have the advantage. As soon as Xu Xin makes a move, she will be in the wrong!"
"That's because the director hasn't been completely bewitched," Tiffany replied as she lay back on the sofa and looked at a photo of her two sons. "Plus, he can't let one person ruin the entire film. After all, the other people in the cast and crew did nothing wrong."
"That's true," Seohyun nodded. "By the way, I just had a look at your schedule, after 'Survivor' finishes, are you planning to take on another film?"
Other actors like Tiffany already had packed schedules for the entire year filled with all sorts of activities. But, when Seohyun looked at Tiffany's schedule, there was nothing after 'Survivor'.
"I want to go home and spend time with my kids," Tiffany replied.
"You're not taking the opportunity to build up your momentum?"
"Are you afraid that you'd have no work while I'm taking a break?" Tiffany suddenly laughed. "Don't worry, you'll have plenty to keep you occupied. I have other plans."
Seohyun did not know what Tiffany had planned. She simply listened patiently because she knew the answer would eventually be revealed
...
That night, Xu Xin tossed and turned beside the director, unable to fall asleep. The director knew what she was worried about, so his lips slowly curved upwards before he fell asleep.
Luckily, he listened to Tiffany's advice and did not fall into this evil woman's trap. Otherwise, the consequences would have been dire.
Tomorrow, he was going to see how Xu Xin planned to continue with her act.
Meanwhile, from what he saw, Tiffany indeed lived up to her reputation as not only a convincing actress, but also a disciplined and flawless person.
He had completely met his savior.
The next morning, Xu Xin woke up early hoping to find a way to save herself. But, to her surprise, the director was awake earlier than her.
"In order not to delay filming, let's go to the hospital earlier."
Xu Xin clasped her hands nervously, wanting to reveal the truth, but in the end, she couldn't gather enough courage to do so. So, as the couple stepped out of the hotel, Xu Xin's face began to turn pale.
"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" the director asked. "I heard that pregnant women have mood swings and discomfort around their bodies. Let's rush to get it checked."
"No, that's not it..." Xu Xin shook her head.
"Then let's keep going," the director opened the car door and drove Xu Xin to the gynaecology and obstetrics ward of a nearby hospital. His face looked obviously excited. Xu Xin clenched her fists with the intention to escape, but the director did not give her the chance. Because, even when she went to the bathroom, he would wait for her at the door.
Soon, Xu Xin was pushed into the ultrasound room as she desperately thought of a way to explain why she wasn't pregnant.
A few minutes later, the director received the results of Xu Xin's scan and looked at her confusedly.
"Didn't you say you were pregnant?"
"I did a pregnancy test and it indeed came out positive," Xu Xin explained.
"Where's the test results, don't tell me you threw such an important thing away..."
"But, I did throw it away..." Xu Xin replied with a lowered head.
"Where did you throw it? I'll go look for it. Even if it's in the trash, I'll dig it up," the director said as he dragged Xu Xin out. "Did you know that I thought you were pregnant, so I revealed my divorce to the public. But, what about you? How did you end up treating me?"
"I..."
"Do whatever you want..." the director yelled as he boarded his car and left Xu Xin behind.
Xu Xin stood in the corridor of the hospital and clenched her hands angrily into fists. She knew that if the director revealed that she wasn't actually pregnant, then her career would be over. The director had done so much for her, yet she deliberately lied to him. Just the thought of being spat on by the disapproving public was enough to drown her.
Meanwhile, after returning to the set, the director resumed his usual work like the entire incident with Xu Xin never happened.
Because, he was now confident that no matter what Xu Xin did, it would not affect the production.
After the morning shoot was done, the director approached Tiffany both apologetically and thankfully, "Thanks to your reminder, the sl*t could not make things worse. Her pregnancy was fake as expected."
"Director, I did it for the sake of the crew and not to get on your good side."
"I know," the director nodded. "Either way, you did me a huge favor. From now on, if you need anything, just ask for it."
Tiffany smiled and did not say another word. As long as the director learned his lesson and never buckled under temptation like this again, it would already be the best form of gratitude.
"Don't worry, thanks to 'Survivor', you will definitely go home with another Best Actress Award."
At this moment, Xu Xin was hiding in a hidden corner watching the conversation between the director and Tiffany. Although she couldn't hear it clearly, she had a feeling that her incident with the director had something to do with Tiffany.
Only Tiffany had the ability to recover a losing battle like this.
With this thought, Xu Xin clenched her fists tighter...
It was Tiffany again...
Not too far away, Seohyun arrived with Tiffany's lunch and the two women began to chat and laugh amongst themselves like nothing had happened. But, Xu Xin knew herself, how unwilling she was to accept this fate.
"Now that the director has exposed Xu Xin's lie, she can't possibly have no response. She will definitely strike back when she gets the chance," Tiffany said as she ate. "You need to pay close attention to her."
"Understood," Seohyun nodded. "People like her are the most annoying. You know that she doesn't do much harm, but you can't help shooing her away because she's like an annoying fly."
"She absolutely had the choice to walk a clean and honest path."
"But, if she chose that path, she wouldn't have survived in this industry," Seohyun sighed. "Of course, you are an exception."
Tiffany did not say another word. Her heart simply ached for those that had talent but didn't have good EQ.
Meanwhile, Xu Xin glared at the two women with the urge to tear them apart.
However, she did not act on impulse. Instead, she waited until the director had his afternoon break before she approached him and asked, "You don't look hurt at all. You're just putting on an act, aren't you?"
"Don't forget that you lied to me first!" the director sneered.
"So you thought of an idea like this to control me, didn't you? No, to be exact, you didn't think of it, Tiffany did, didn't she?" Xu Xin asked emotionally.
The director did not reply.
"Is that a silent admittance? Great..." Xu Xin sneered as she promised to herself that she'd make Tiffany disappear from the face of the earth.
"If you don't have any other business here, you can go report on set at the new production. The fact that I didn't expose this matter to the public is already a kind enough gesture. Stop clinging to me." After speaking, the director pushed Xu Xin away, "You can wait a bit before you tell everyone that we broke up. After that, you can find another victim to sell your tricks to. On the surface, you are looking for a partner, but in reality, you are merely using your body in exchange for benefits."
"If not, what else could I do?" Xu Xin laughed. "I don't have any background whatsoever."
At this moment, the director pointed towards Tiffany, "She was previously swindled out of everything she had and was much more pitiful than you."
Tiffany, again! Why was it always Tiffany?
Not everyone understood the feeling of defeat.
"It's because of her capabilities that I lost to her." After saying this, Xu Xin finally left the director's side. But, seeing Tiffany being respected by so many people made her blood boil.
"We finally got rid of that pest..." the director breathed a sigh of relief as he watched Xu Xin leave.
There were some people that he naturally felt cold towards. Of course, in Xu Xin's case, her motives were too impure, so she did not deserve any sympathy.
But, after Xu Xin left the director's side, she did not completely leave the set. Instead, she approached Tiffany and stared her down with eyes full of hatred, "It's not over between us."
"It's time you report to your new film..." Tiffany reminded.
"I'm fuming with hatred."
"You must hate yourself for throwing your body at a man and not getting anything in return," Tiffany responded straightforwardly.
"Tiffany, I'm not going to leave it at this," Xu Xin growled in front of everyone. She seemed to have reached her limit. Everyone looked towards the three women and began to speculate what was happening, but Xu Xin did not explain anything before she turned and left.
As soon as Xu Xin left, everyone turned to look at Tiffany.
What happened?
Why was Xu Xin so emotional?
"I guess bad people never realize the fault in themselves. They simply judge others with the standards of a saint while they judge themselves with the standards of a sinner," Seohyun sighed.
"Tiffany, prepare for the next scene," the director's voice echoed across the set. As soon as she heard this, Tiffany immediately stood up from her seat and walked over...
After Xu Xin left, the crew no longer mentioned her name. Apparently, she had started with her new project while 'Survivor' continued to progress.
But, due to the fact that Tiffany hadn't seen her babies for a while, the director gave her some time off after a few important scenes were completed so she could relieve her yearning.
Taeyeon originally wanted to drive up to get her, but Tiffany's heart ached thinking about his long day at work, so she instructed Seohyun to drive instead.
10pm. Tiffany was already resting in the back seat of the van.
Seohyun glanced at Tiffany through the rearview mirror. Seeing that Tiffany was sleeping soundly, she made the decision to slow down her driving speed.
But, it didn't take long before Seohyun noticed a black car trailing them.
Seohyun was afraid it was the paparazzi or perhaps her own imagination, so she deliberately swerved into a small alley. But, as suspected, the car followed.
Seohyun was a little flustered as she turned back into the main road. At this time, the car suddenly turned its headlights on full beam and sped towards Seohyun, smashing the van into the barrier on the right side of the road.
Tiffany sensed an abnormality. As she opened her eyes, she noticed a car ruthlessly ramming into the left side of their van.
"Fany unnie, hurry and call the police. It's Xu Xin, she's gone mad."
"Hold on," Tiffany pulled out her phone. Just as she was about to make a call, the black car directly ran headfirst into the side of their van...
A loud bang shocked everyone. The van that Tiffany was sitting in, crumpled out of shape on one side...
Everyone that witnessed the scene couldn't help but sigh. How much of a grudge did this person have?
...
It was late at night and Taeyeon was coaxing his sons to sleep. Suddenly, Hyun hyun started crying without warning.
Bo-ah immediately rushed over to help. After checking him thoroughly, she discovered there was nothing wrong with him.
"You're perfectly fine. Why are you suddenly crying so painfully?"
Meanwhile, Jong jong slept like a log; the sky could fall down and he'd still be unaffected.
"Fany hasn't been home in a while. He must be missing his mother."
"Mom, can you watch the kids for a while? I'm going to go make a phone call..."
However, Taeyeon called Tiffany a few times in a row, but his call couldn't get through. Just as he began to question what was going on, he received a phone call from Sooyoung, "President. Something happened to the Madam."
Taeyeon's eyebrows immediately tensed up.
...
"Welcome to the Late Night News. Just in. Famous actress, Tiffany was involved in an accident at 10:41pm tonight. According to witnesses, she was trailed by a black car which ended up hitting into her van deliberately. The incident happened too sudden and the scene is a mess. At this point, it is still unclear whether there are any deaths or injuries..."
