Lin Weisen's wedding was extremely grand and lots of famous names were attending. Tiffany probably wasn't the most attention-attracting person there, but her attendance was definitely a huge talking point.
However, outsiders had no idea how deep of a grudge Tiffany and President Fan had. So, no one expected a war to erupt at the wedding.
Soon, Lin Weisen's wedding was held in Seoul's biggest cathedral and a huge number of models and actors attended.
In order to suit the occasion, Tiffany appeared dressed in a long beige dress. Although she was already 7-8 months pregnant, the other parts of her body didn't change much. So, she still looked as sexy as ever.
On that day, even President Kim specifically wore a black tailored suit that made him look extra noble. When the couple stood next to each other, they were bound to create a stir.
Soon, Sooyoung delivered the two to the cathedral. At this time, the outside of the cathedral was already packed with stars.
Tiffany barely recognized any of the fresh new faces, regardless of the industry they were in and what they had achieved.
But, just because she didn't look at everyone else, didn't mean that they didn't look at her in awe.
This was Tiffany... The almighty Tiffany!
-"She won't be around for many more years. You just wait and see...This industry is teeming with youth and vitality. In a few years, no one is going to remember her name," an artist said to the person beside her.
-"Right now, she's simply relying on Superstar Media to maintain a bit of fame."
"No matter how much longer she'll last, she's still been famous for longer than you have," a cold voice echoed from behind the woman in mockery.
As the young woman turned around, she came face to face with Xia Hanmo and laughed,
-"Why are you still helping Tiffany? If I was you, I would expose all of Tiffany's most embarrassing secrets to satisfy my hatred."
"I'm not the same as you," Xia Hanmo replied. Before the woman got a chance to respond, Xia Hanmo added, "At least, being famous for having a bad reputation is still fame. What about you? No one even knows your name."
Xia Hanmo still protected Tiffany even though she had already lost Superstar Media forever.
As long as she was still around, she would do all she could to salvage Tiffany's reputation.
-"You just wait."
Xia Hanmo no longer took things to heart. After all, with a rich man backing her up, she had the power to voice her opinion. At least, when it came to dealing with a small potato like this, it was a piece of cake.
Soon, the small-time artist stood up from her seat. A scene like this had plenty of guests and they were all from the entertainment industry, a place that was full of unspoken rules. So, for some people, playing small tricks on one's enemy was quite a normal thing to do.
The young woman who argued with Xia Hanmo was exactly this type of person.
After leaving her seat, she did not go to the bathroom as most people would expect. Instead, she approached a waiter and gave a few instructions; she was planning to use some despicable methods.
She wanted to see how Xia Hanmo would still stick up for Tiffany if she was humiliated in front of everyone.
...
Of course, whenever a large number of celebrities gathered in the one place, there was bound to be people that were hungry for fame and fortune. Even Lin Weisen knew this.
As she watched Lin Weisen weave through the guests with his bride, Tiffany couldn't help but feel a little moved.
"Tiffany, President Kim...you're here," Lin Weisen approached after noticing that Tiffany's big belly made it inconvenient for her to walk around.
The bride looked extremely young; probably in her early twenties. But, Tiffany could tell that Lin Weisen cared deeply for the young woman.
"Since it was you that invited me, I naturally had to come," Tiffany said as Taeyeon helped her stand up.
"You don't know how many people here today wanted to see you."
"They probably want to see the news I'll create instead," Tiffany said sarcastically.
"By the way, there's something important I want to talk to you about," Lin Weisen pulled out a business card from his pants pocket and handed it to Tiffany, "I want to introduce this man to you. He loves experimenting with sci-fi films and has a few small achievements. I think he may be able to help you."
Tiffany held the business card in her hand and smiled after taking a look at it, "Thank you, you're getting married yet you're still thinking about helping me."
"Out of all the artists I've ever worked with, you were the one that I liked the most and the one that I felt was the most promising. In fact, the cover you shot for TQ is still being used for our promotional billboard because I want to show other models what it means to be a real model."
"I've also remembered what you've done for me," Tiffany replied.
At this time, Lin Weisen suddenly said, "In that case, if I come across any troubles, I'll definitely ask you for help."
Tiffany maintained her smile because she could tell that Lin Weisen did have something to ask of her. But, of course, after what Lin Weisen had done for her in the past, it was only right for her to return the favor.
But, for some reason, Tiffany had a bad feeling about this.
Taeyeon seemed to have seen through her uncertainty, so he said, "People change. Or perhaps, you never truly understood him."
"Forget it. I'll just think of this as returning a favor."
As a result, the wedding suddenly felt quite insincere.
She originally thought that Lin Weisen invited her there to catch up.
"You don't know how to be cautious of your acquaintances."
Lin Weisen and his bride went back to greeting their guests, but they continued to linger around Tiffany and Taeyeon. Tiffany even overheard a few things that made her quite uncomfortable.
"I'd heard in the past that Editor Lin was close to Tiffany, I never thought that it was true."
"Apart from the people at Superstar Media, I think you are the only one that has such a close relationship with Tiffany..."
After hearing the guests say this, Tiffany's expression turned cold. It turned out, Lin Weisen was using her status to boost himself.
"In the past, when your status wasn't high and you were just a small-time model, he helped you because he appreciated talent. So, now that you've become a huge talking point in the industry, it's only natural for him to suck up to you. Your heart is still the same as before, so you didn't notice that everything has changed. But, there are many things that are no longer the same."
After hearing Taeyeon's explanation, Tiffany nodded her head, "I understand. It's just hard to accept."
"If you don't like being here, we can find an excuse to leave."
"Forget it. Since I've already given him face by appearing here, I might as well go all the way. If worse comes to worst, I'll never come in contact with him again," Tiffany decided.
Before the ceremony started, there was already so much drama. What would happen after the ceremony and during the reception?
Realistically speaking, Lin Weisen couldn't be blamed for acting the way that he did. After all, it was human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.
However, just as Tiffany regained her composure, someone suddenly yelled from the crowd, "Is she trying to strip dance?"
Who was at the center of this ruckus? Xia Hanmo!
Tiffany did not know that Xia Hanmo had been schemed against. But, amongst the huge commotion, she managed to spot President Fan chatting to a director on the other side of the venue. Their eyes fired up as they looked at each other.
A moment later, Tiffany spotted the red-faced Xia Hanmo standing up amongst the seated guests, tugging at her clothes uncomfortably. By this time, one side of her long blue dress had already slipped off her shoulder and, unfortunately, she was wearing nothing underneath.
The public exposure created quite a commotion.
As everyone present was a celebrity of some sort, they quickly stepped away from her, afraid that they would be tied in with this humiliating act.
But, the thing that everyone was most curious about, was how Xia Hanmo's ex-boss, Tiffany, was going to react to a scene like this. Was she going to help her?
"Let's go have a look," Tiffany said to Taeyeon after confirming that it was Xia Hanmo.
At the same time, Taeyeon instructed Sooyoung to take off his jacket and cover Xia Hanmo.
But, even after doing this, Xia Hanmo moaned and groaned embarrassingly in front of everyone. Tiffany soon made her way into the crowd and saw Sooyoung pour a glass of icy cold water on Xia Hanmo.
Luckily, she wasn't drugged too badly.
Due to the icy coldness, Xia Hanmo came to her senses. When she realized that she was half naked, she was so upset that she wanted to immediately drill a hole to hide in.
Anyone with a bit of awareness would of realized that Xia Hanmo had fallen into someone's trap.
But, after this embarrassment...how was Xia Hanmo to ever face the world again?
As Lin Weisen stood next to his bride watching the scene unfold, he immediately approached and asked, "Who did this? How dare someone bully another guest at my wedding?"
As the host, if he didn't get justice for Xia Hanmo, it wouldn't be right...
Plus, Xia Hanmo was once a part of Superstar Media. So, it was important that he got an explanation.
Xia Hanmo was really upset. She wanted to leave the wedding, but Tiffany suddenly grabbed onto her wrist and asked, "What happened?"
Was Tiffany going to do something about it?
Didn't she say that Xia Hanmo and Superstar Media were no longer related?
Xia Hanmo looked at Tiffany as tears began to roll out of her eyes.
Was Tiffany showing concern for her?
"Based on my relationship with Editor Lin, he definitely won't let this matter go like this. There's still a bit of time until the ceremony starts. I'm sure Editor Lin will allow me to spend this time looking for the culprit. Otherwise, his heart won't be at peace either."
Since Lin Weisen deliberately invited her so he could flaunt their relationship, Tiffany played along to her own benefit, so there was nothing he could say about it.
Hence, as expected, Lin Weisen nodded his head, "Indeed. Ruining a person's purity is an important matter."
With Lin Weisen's agreement, Tiffany turned and said to Xia Hanmo, "What exactly happened?"
Xia Hanmo did not say a word. She simply glared at the young artist that she had argued with earlier. Tiffany immediately understood and looked at the woman as well.
"It's got nothing to do with me. I argued with you earlier, but I would never do something this disgusting."
"It really wasn't me..."
"Besides, even if you suspect me, you still need evidence. I may dislike Xia Hanmo, but I simply instructed the waiter to teach her a lesson by damaging her chair so she'd embarrass herself. How would I have predicted that I'd have an argument with her and have drugs prepared..."
Tiffany could tell that the woman wasn't lying.
Otherwise, she would have felt guilty as soon as something happened to Xia Hanmo.
So, Tiffany naturally turned to look at President Fan instead. And he simply looked back at her smugly, waiting to see how she would resolve the matter.
It seemed, President Fan wanted to challenge her until the end.
The public often talked about how amazing and capable Tiffany was. So, how was she going to find the culprit?
Everyone looked at Tiffany and waited to see the result. But, she simply looked at Xia Hanmo and said, "Originally, you had already broken all ties with Superstar Media. But, I couldn't control myself from getting involved. I believe that the young woman that argued with you did not drug you. So, go freshen up and come back to sit by my side."
"I will follow-up this matter after the ceremony is over."
Originally, after the embarrassment she had suffered, it didn't make sense for Xia Hanmo to stay at the wedding. After all, it was too tempting for people to tease her. But, if she sat next to Tiffany, the situation was very different; no one dared to touch someone that Tiffany was protecting.
The guests were curious. Was Tiffany planning to take Xia Hanmo back?
Xia Hanmo's eyes turned red as Sooyoung protected her out of the venue. Meanwhile, Tiffany and Taeyeon returned to their original spot. However, both their eyes were placed on President Fan in the distance.
"This jerk looks like he came prepared."
"It doesn't matter, let's wait and see what else he has planned..."
Most importantly, of course, everyone was waiting to see how Tiffany planned to make the culprit pay back for this incident.
It didn't take long before Lin Weisen and his bride approached to provide an apology, "I never thought that something like this would happen at my wedding..."
"It's not your fault. Besides, Xia Hanmo isn't a part of Superstar Media," Tiffany reminded Lin Weisen calmly. "Even if this happened to someone else, I would have still helped them."
"Let's forget it then and put this incident in the past. The ceremony is about to start, I need to direct everyone's attention to the stage..."
Tiffany turned her gaze to President Fan and President Fan raised a wine glass at her...
But, he probably didn't know that Tiffany loved giving an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.
So, just before the ceremony, Taeyeon gave Sooyoung a phone call while he was out with Xia Hanmo.
Some actions had their consequences!
Soon, Xia Hanmo came out with a change of clothes and was told to sit down beside Tiffany. But, compared to the past, she no longer felt worthy of sitting there.
"Tiffany..."
"I'm not helping you because I want to be connected to you in any way. I'm helping you because I think someone was targeting me and you may have taken the hit instead."
After hearing this, Xia Hanmo felt a little disappointed, but she understood.
"Since your status is so high in the industry, people are bound to be envious of you."
"From now on, when you leave the house on your own, you should watch what you drink and eat. You are an artist, not an average person. If you don't know how to be cautious, then you're no different from the Xia Hanmo in the past," Tiffany's words were a little harsh; it sounded like she was teaching Xia Hanmo how to live her life.
"Can you tell me who would try to scheme against you?"
"You don't need to know this," Tiffany did not want Xia Hanmo to get involved with the grudge between her and President Fan. "We are even now. You can finally shake off your guilt. Since you've found someone to rely on, you should walk your own path."
Xia Hanmo did not reply. To be exact, she clearly knew what Tiffany's answer actually meant.
But, even though she was no longer in Superstar Media, she would forever think of herself as one of them.
However, she had already experienced enough embarrassment from the incident earlier. With her identity and her current state, her existence in the world was pretty much pointless.
So, after Tiffany gave her answer, the two women did not say another word to each other.
Meanwhile, everyone else in the venue waited to watch the wedding ceremony.
During this time, Tiffany often turned her gaze towards President Fan. She was curious what other trick he wanted to play.
Did he perhaps already deal with his ex-wife?
The ceremony only ran for ten minutes or so. After the ceremony was over, it was time for the lunch banquet. However, Tiffany did not do a thing yet. Had she decided not to pursue the matter any further?
Soon, Lin Weisen led his wife around to toast the guests. And the first person he walked over to, was Tiffany and Taeyeon.
Dressed in a white tuxedo, Lin Weisen walked over with a glass of champagne in his hand. As soon as he saw Tiffany stand up, he immediately asked, "Tiffany, do you like dancers?"
"From the sounds of it, does Editor Lin have a talented person to introduce to me?"
"Indeed. My wife here loves to dance, but I can't find an agency that I can trust, that's why I thought of you," Lin Weisen said with one arm around the bride. "I'm sure, with Superstar Media's abilities, this wouldn't be an issue. She doesn't necessarily need to be an artist, she can also follow by your side and learn from you."
As expected...
Tiffany's lips curved upwards. The Lin Weisen that had previously sided with her, couldn't help but follow the crowd and ask for her favor in the end.
Tiffany glanced at the bride. Although she didn't have any particular liking for her, she still nodded her head, "That's not hard to do. But, let me warn you in advance that I'll be very strict with her."
"I trust in you," Lin Weisen knew that Tiffany couldn't reject him. It wasn't only because of the occasion, but also because of the favor he had previously done for her.
Tiffany hated owing people, so she always did whatever she could to pay them back.
"I'm sorry about what happened to Miss Xia earlier..." After receiving a satisfying response, Lin Weisen tried to change the focus to Xia Hanmo. "It must have made you very uncomfortable."
"Of course I was uncomfortable..." Tiffany responded straightforwardly. "How dare someone act so brazenly at your wedding."
"From the sounds of it, you already know who the culprit is?"
Tiffany pointed her chin towards President Fan who wasn't too far away.
As soon as Lin Weisen looked at the direction she was gesturing to, he nodded his head, "I've heard about the grudge between the two of you, but I never expected things to get this serious. Besides, Xia Hanmo is no longer a part of Superstar Media. Why would he deliberately challenge you?"
"He targeted Seohyun not too long ago too," Tiffany replied as she sipped some tea. "I assume it's because he can't hurt me, so he thinks that hurting the people around me is an effective attack."
"I will help you keep an eye on him."
"Thank you," Tiffany replied politely, her tone sounding a little distant. "However, I have a favor that I would like to ask of you."
"Huh?"
After a short chat, Lin Weisen moved on to other guests with his bride while Tiffany anticipated what was about to happen.
"Did President Fan target Seohyun as well?" Xia Hanmo asked.
Tiffany's eyes darkened, but she did not reply.
However, it didn't take long before President Fan approached Tiffany and Taeyeon, holding a glass of wine.
His actions were smug and his smile had a trace of mockery, "Did you enjoy the little game we played earlier?"
As soon as Xia Hanmo heard this, she immediately stood up and threw a slap towards President Fan, but President Fan quickly grabbed onto her wrist and stopped her, "Miss Xia, watch what you're doing. The man supporting you is a good friend of mine. Aren't you afraid of losing everything tomorrow?"
It seemed, similar people were drawn to each other.
"From the looks of it, it seems President Fan has already dealt with his ex-wife," Tiffany queried. "It seems, you are no longer afraid that I know of your secrets."
"Tiffany, you're just a wild monkey that appears tough on the surface. All you can do is make a few sounds, but in reality, you are helpless around me."
"Really?" Tiffany watched as President Fan's face began to turn red and said mockingly, "Are you sure you don't want to put out the fire burning inside of you?"
President Fan's strength slowly faded and his body felt especially weak. A moment later, he quickly realized what had happened. When had he been drugged?
Even at this point, he did not suspect Lin Weisen at all.
A moment later, President Fan fell to the floor, tore off his clothes and moaned uncontrollably. He was in a worse off state than Xia Hanmo earlier.
After all, he wasn't as pretty as Xia Hanmo and did not have a good body like hers. So, to see a man like him lying half naked on the floor, simply looked gross and sleazy.
"Oh God, what's happening now?"
"Isn't this President Fan? Did he also get...?!"
President Fan lay on the floor with his clothes torn into a mess. But, worst of all, he began to grab onto whatever woman he could find, pressed himself up against them and tried to take advantage of them.
"Hey, look, something appears to have fallen out of President Fan's pants..."
"Is this the drug that was mentioned earlier?" a person guessed after reading the packaging for the medicine.
"This is obviously that drug...Does that mean the person that drugged Xia Hanmo was President Fan? Did he accidentally consume the drug that he brought himself? If that's the case, then that's really embarrassing."
President Fan's face turned red as he rolled around on the floor. Eventually, Lin Weisen couldn't watch him any longer, so he called the security to remove him from the premises.
At this time, Xia Hanmo stepped out and said to everyone, "I don't even know President Fan. He may not have drugged me on purpose. It doesn't seem nice to kick him out. After all, it's meant to be Editor Lin's wedding. Perhaps, someone should wake him up with some icy water as well."
All the guests didn't want to miss out on the show, so they immediately pulled out their phones to record the scene; even though it was a repulsive sight.
Lin Weisen felt that Xia Hanmo made a reasonable point, so he asked someone to bring him a tub of icy water. Originally, he was going to wipe down President Fan's face with the water, but Xia Hanmo suddenly grabbed the tub and poured it all over the man...
She obviously did it on purpose!
"Hurry! Someone come and help President Fan up," Lin Weisen yelled at the security guards. "Deliver President Fan safely home."
President Fan woke up a little from the shock of the icy cold water and stood up with help of the security guards. He then trembled as he pointed to Xia Hanmo, "You...you will definitely pay for what you've done today!"
Xia Hanmo didn't buckle, "I'll be waiting."
Tiffany looked at the two and shook her head. After President Fan was sent away, she turned and said to Xia Hanmo, "This is my problem to deal with, I don't want you to get involved. Who do you think you are?"
Xia Hanmo was surprised.
"You are no longer related to Superstar Media, stop butting your nose into mine and Seohyun's matters."
"This jerk isn't someone you can afford to offend. Remember, the next time you see him, stay as far away from him as possible...This has nothing to do with you."
"It seems like you enjoyed the revenge you got already. In that case, there's no need for you to sit next to me anymore."
Xia Hanmo did not say a word as she quietly returned to her original seat.
She knew that things would never return to how they used to be, no matter what she said or did. She had already been kicked out of Superstar Media.
"Tae, you need to keep an eye on President Fan in case he seeks revenge on Xia Hanmo."
Taeyeon nodded as he stood behind Tiffany, "Don't worry, I'll tell Sooyoung to make arrangements as soon as we arrive home."
"Although she's no longer a part of Superstar Media, I still don't want to see anything happen to her."
Taeyeon naturally understood what Tiffany was thinking. After all, they had been married for so long. It was obvious that didn't want to implicate Xia Hanmo.
"I simply humiliated that jerk today, but it seems like he's determined to keep fighting."
Taeyeon had nothing to say about this because he already had a secret plan in the works. But, some things needed time.
Soon, the wedding returned to its original peace. After lunch, it was time for the reception.
As she was pregnant, Tiffany obviously couldn't take part in dancing. So, she could only sit to the side with Taeyeon.
As it was a gathering of artists, many of the guests could sing and dance.
In particular, Lin Weisen's bride was capable of all styles of dance, just like Lin Weisen had said earlier. She was extremely talented.
"Are you really planning to sign that young woman with Superstar Media?"
"Didn't you hear it? Lin Weisen personally asked me. How could I reject him?" Tiffany replied. "You also saw her spectacular dance performance just a moment ago. They were obviously putting on a show for me so I could make her famous."
"I understand that you need to return Lin Weisen's favor. But, I also know that you don't like that woman."
"Mr. Kim, are you perhaps a worm in my stomach?" Tiffany giggled. "How do you know everything I'm thinking?"
Taeyeon pinched Tiffany on the tip of her nose. Some things were obvious.
At this time, Tiffany scanned her surroundings and noticed that Xia Hanmo was nowhere to be seen. She originally thought that she had left early because she had work to do, but, she had no idea that Xia Hanmo had been lured somewhere.
The outdoor wedding was lively as it filled with song and dance. But, just as everyone was happy and excited, a shrill scream suddenly resounded from somewhere.
Afterwards, a loud plonk was heard as a person fell from up above onto the grass. Someone immediately identified the person.
"It's Xia Hanmo...it's Xia Hanmo!"
As soon as she heard Xia Hanmo's name, Tiffany immediately stood up with Taeyeon's help and made her way through the crowd. Slowly, Xia Hanmo came into view. She was lying on the floor with blood all over her mouth and nose. Tiffany immediately knelt down beside her.
"Hanmo..."
Xia Hanmo twitched as she pointed her finger upwards, "The fifth floor...fifth floor..."
Tiffany understood that she had fallen from the fifth floor.
Meanwhile, behind her, Taeyeon was already phoning the police and ambulance.
"Tiffany...President Fan...is on the fifth floor. He...pushed...me!"
Wasn't President Fan sent home? Besides, when did Xia Hanmo go up to the fifth floor of the hotel?
"Fany...everyone has their own ending. I think...this may be the best end for me..." After saying these words, Xia Hanmo gripped tightly to Tiffany's hand, "Do you forgive me? Do...you...forgive..."
"Stop talking. As long as you stay alive, I'll forgive you," Tiffany said as she covered Xia Hanmo's mouth. "As long as you live."
Xia Hanmo was covered in blood as she looked at Tiffany. Hearing her response, she let out a laugh.
But, Tiffany's heart was seriously breaking.
As Xia Hanmo fell unconscious, Tiffany clenched her fists. She had been too merciful with President Fan. She had spoiled him to the point where he hurt her loved ones, one after another.
Taeyeon knew that Tiffany was upset. So, he held onto her hands, "Don't worry, I already have something planned."
"No. I want to personally make his life a living hell."
Soon, the police arrived on the scene, followed by the ambulance. While the police surveyed the scene, Xia Hanmo was sent to the hospital.
Afterwards, Tiffany and Taeyeon also headed to the hospital. For some reason, at that moment, all the grudges they previously had, were completely wiped away.
Xia Hanmo was wrong, but what about Tiffany?
Tiffany began to blame herself, especially when she arrived at the hospital and saw 'Emergency' written on the operating theater. But, she simply sat on the seat outside in a terrifyingly calm manner.
However, it didn't take long before Taeyeon noticed some blood stains at the bottom of Tiffany's dress...
The blood that led from between her thighs obviously didn't belong to Xia Hanmo.
"Doctor...doctor!"
As a result, Tiffany was sent to the gynaecology and obstetrics ward and the medical staff quickly ran an exam on her and her baby. As the doctor checked Tiffany's condition, she shook her head, "A pregnant woman should maintain stable emotions. Big fluctuations like this are detrimental to the baby..."
"Mother and child should rest in bed for at least half a month. Moreover, the mother's emotions can't fluctuate too much."
Tiffany woke up and heard the doctor's instructions, but she immediately looked at Taeyeon and asked, "How's Xia Hanmo?"
"She successfully made it past the critical stage," Taeyeon replied as he sat down on the edge of her bed. "From now on, you don't need to concern yourself with anything. Leave everything with me."
"Tae..."
"Listen to me. Otherwise, I will feel really guilty for making you like this."
Tiffany understood how serious Taeyeon was, so she nodded her head.
"From today onwards, go home and get some rest. I will handle everything else."
Tiffany could tell that President Kim was angry...
In fact, he was very very angry...
"Tae...don't let that jerk go," Tiffany pleaded as she held onto Taeyeon's hand.
"As you wish," Taeyeon replied.
Xia Hanmo pulled through the critical stage and was temporarily in a non-life-threatening state. However, she had not woken up yet, so she simply lay quietly in the ICU.
Tiffany was bedridden, so Sunny and Seohyun came to visit her. After hearing about the entire incident, they sighed, "This President Fan has tread over the Boss' bottom line."
"How did Xia Hanmo fall from the hotel? Was it President Fan?"
Tiffany shook her head, gesturing that she didn't quite understand what happened either.
"Fany unnie's already in this state, you should stop asking her questions. If President Kim finds out, I won't be able to save you," Seohyun intervened after seeing Sunny was asking too many questions. "Let Fany unnie get some rest."
Actually, all Tiffany could think about at that moment was Xia Hanmo's bloody image as she begged for forgiveness.
Did she forgive her?
What right did she have to talk about forgiveness?
If Tiffany hadn't been so merciful as to let President Fan have his way, they would not be in their current situation.
"Everyone's currently saying that Xia Hanmo was drugged and then pushed off a building. This was quite a show for the observers."
"You're still on that topic?" Seohyun asked as she pulled out her phone.
As she listened to Seohyun's warning, Sunny nodded her head, "I'm simply being a little nosy. So, has President Kim gone to handle this matter?"
Tiffany nodded her head.
"That President Fan is so despicable. If I was in your position, I wouldn't know how to respond in an equally cruel manner. But, I'm sure the Boss has a way to make him suffer."
To make a person suffer, one had to find out what that person loved the most, what they wanted the most and what they cared about the most.
President Fan loved his daughter, but he didn't have just one daughter. This jerk had a lot of mistresses, so he naturally had a lot of children.
Apart from his ex-wife, these women were all happily willing to be with him. Moreover, they all knew about each other's existence.
So, what fears did this evil man have?
He had one weakness: his older sister!
On the night of Xia Hanmo's incident, President Fan hid inside his older sister's home to avoid rumors. Although he couldn't guarantee that Xia Hanmo would lose her life, what he did was still just as bad. While the police still had no clue that he was involved, he simply pretended like nothing had happened.
But, even if Xia Hanmo was to wake up and accuse him, he already had a way to get away scot-free.
He simply taught a small-time actress a lesson. Was it necessary for everyone to make a fuss about it?
A little later, President Fan checked on Superstar Media and Crown Empire, but there was still no word from them. So, President Fan smirked and said, "Didn't I tell you that the b*tch simply appears tough on the surface, but she's nothing on the inside? Yet, no one believed me."
"I did this to her artist, yet there's nothing she can do in return."
"Brother Two, you can't just stay here forever. You have so many families. Just choose one and go to them," President Fan's sister complained.
"Sis, I only have you now. Grandfather has decided to side with the enemy. If I don't stay here, where else can I go?"
"Fine. I know how you are. You must have caused a huge problem again."
President Fan's sister was a textbook socialite housewife, especially after she married her Crown Empire shareholder husband. But, she particularly doted on her younger brother.
"Sis, I helped brother-in-law get revenge."
While the two were talking, President Fan's brother-in-law returned home. Seeing his wife and President Fan whispering to each other, he approached them questioningly.
"It's almost time, why are you still wasting your breath on him?" the man asked President Fan's sister.
President Fan's sister froze because she had been put in a difficult position, "We are siblings, after all, I'm bound to miss him a little."
"What? Are you guys planning to go somewhere?" President Fan asked as he ate some rice and vegetables.
"Bro, actually....the things that you told me to store for you, I've taken them out of storage and sold them all," his sister replied. She didn't want to tell him this, but she had to in the end.
"What do you mean?" President Fan was still oblivious.
"Didn't you try to kill someone? You won't be able to use this stuff in jail, anyway," President Fan's sister said as she stood up guiltily, "That's why I asked a lawyer to make arrangements."
"No, Sis, what are you trying to say? What did you do?"
"What is she trying to say? Don't you understand? Your sister wants to distance herself from a murderer," his brother-in-law yelled.
"Who are you calling a murderer?" President Fan growled. "My dear brother-in-law, don't forget that we are all in the same boat."
"Who's in the same boat as you?" the man pulled his wife behind him to protect her. "When it comes to scum like you, your sister and I will be distancing ourselves as far as possible."
"Are you trying to get rid of me now that I am no longer of use? Don't you know how well I've treated you guys? How dare you treat me like this?"
"Fine then, can you explain Xia Hanmo's incident to me? President Kim has already contacted me about it. Are you going to deny that you pushed Xia Hanmo off a building?"
After hearing his brother-in-law's words, President Fan finally understood what was happening. So, this was the situation.
"Did Taeyeon bribe you?"
The man couldn't be bothered wasting any more time on President Fan. So, he turned to the door and yelled, "Come in."
A moment later, a few bodyguards entered the villa and grabbed onto President Fan. They then placed a bag on his head and tied him up with rope before they carried him up to the roof of the villa.
"What are you trying to do?"
No one replied to him and he couldn't see a thing either. He simply felt the cold breeze from the outdoors.
"You guys..."
Before he could continue, President Fan was pushed off the roof of the building. He couldn't see a thing. All he felt was his body fall and gain speed as it got closer to the ground.
Although four-storeys wasn't very high, it was still frightening.
However, just as he thought his body would be splattered across the floor and he'd suffer serious injuries, he stopped.
President Fan was so terrified that he almost wet himself...As he got pulled back up, his entire body was trembling.
"What...what are you guys trying to do?"
"We are letting you have a taste of what Xia Hanmo experienced," one of the bodyguards replied. Afterwards, the men led him back to the dining room and removed the bag on his head. At this time, a tall figure stepped into view. It was Taeyeon.
Taeyeon didn't usually like wearing black as it made him look too solemn. But today, he subconsciously put on a black suit like he was attending 'someone's' funeral.
"So it's you. Taeyeon, you played a good trick," President Fan scoffed. He was still recovering from what just happened.
The feeling of almost coming face to face with death was very real.
