In the evening, the sunset shrouded the whole of Seoul, casting a dreamy atmosphere on the city.
A black car drove towards Yueying Culture Media rather quickly.
Whoosh!
A loud screech came as a result of the sudden braking as the car stopped right in front of the entrance of Yueying. The guards were shocked and they advanced nearer as the door opened.
A woman with long hair wearing a black windbreaker and a pair of sunglasses walked out of the car.
“Director Manoban!” The guards quickly greeted when they saw who it was.
Lisa closed the door as she held the car keys in her hands. She walked inside and asked coldly, “Is CEO Yoo in?”
The guards nodded. “Yes, Director Manoban, CEO Yoo just came back not too long ago.”
Lisa went straight in, leaving a gust of wind trail behind her. She took the elevator and went right up to the top floor. Working hours had just ended as she walked out of the elevator, and many employees breezed past her.
She rarely visited, so most people did not know about her. They were stunned when she walked out of the elevator with an icy cold aura around her.
Lisa walked forward swiftly.
Dari’s office was right ahead. The warm sun lit up the corridor and the cool wind breezed past the curtains. Beside her was the employees working area, but only several people remained at the moment.
Lisa took a pause as she stared coldly at Dari who was speaking to someone in front of her office. She continued forward after a while as Dari went back into her office.
There was a moment when she felt that this long walk through the corridor was extremely chilly. Even though the warm sun was right outside, it could not chase the anger and coldness inside her away.
Chaeyoung cried on the phone as she told her about what happened. A frigid aura shrouded Lisa after she heard her story.
The wrath inside her raged!
Chitthip had lost her sight!
As she had those thoughts in her mind, she could not control herself! She would go mad if she did not lash it out, so—
“You’re—”
Lisa was stopped by Dari’s secretary the moment she arrived before her office. The secretary studied Lisa doubtfully. Although her little face was covered by the large sunglasses, the secretary felt this person was a little familiar.
“I’m here to look for Yoo Dari,” announced Lisa coldly before pushing the door to Dari’s office. The secretary then realized who Lisa was, so she kept quiet.
Bang!
Lisa slammed the door, the loud noise shocked Dari who was on a phone call, she frowned and was about to start yelling as she turned around, she then saw the cold-looking Lisa.
“Lisa! It’s you!”
Dari was stunned when she saw Lisa’s expression. Gripping onto her phone tightly, her whole body strained as she stared right at Lisa.
Lisa slowly took her sunglasses off and put them inside her pocket. She closed in slowly as Dari backed away carefully until her back came into contact with the cold office desk.
“You little witch, what are you trying to do!?”
Dari was suddenly terrified, but she forced herself to keep calm. She laughed coldly. “Look at you! Did Chitthip really die from that fall?”
“Haha, if that’s the case, she really deserved it! She bumped into me herself. It’s karma! Both of you should just die already after causing so much trouble! She totally deserved it— Ah! Ah!”
Before Dari could finish her sentence, her collar was grabbed as furious fists pummeled her face!
Thud!
Thud!
Thud!
Consecutive violent punches landed on her as she screamed. However, Lisa had locked the door so that Dari’s secretary could not come in to help.
Furious, Lisa dragged Dari by the hair to the desk. She could not move as Lisa attacked her. Dari’s face was already swollen and she was bleeding from the corner of her mouth.
Pig-like squeals filled the whole office.
“Lisa, you witch! How dare you hit me!? I’m not going to let you get away with this! Ah!”
“I gave you chances to back off and you gave them up. I’m not afraid of losing anything, and I’m not afraid of death as well. Are you not afraid too? You guys forced me to do this!”
“Witch! That old witch Chitthip gave birth to a useless daughter whose man got snatched away! You two are just inferior to me and my daughter! Chitthip should just die already!”
“She won’t die before you!”
“Lalisa, you just assaulted me. I’m suing you! Witch!”
“Sue me then. We’ll settle everything in the past twenty years altogether. Let everyone see what kind of person the daughter of the Yoo family is, the current Mayoress!”
After a while, Dari’s secretary saw Lisa put her sunglasses back on and tugged on her creased sleeves as she walked out of the office.
There was no more sound from inside the office. As she tried to stop Lisa, Lisa just brushed her arm off and left smugly.
“CEO Yoo? CEO Yoo? Where are you?”
The secretary quickly rushed in to look for Dari. In the end, she found her in a terrible state under the desk.
Her beautiful face that had been done up in the morning had turned swollen. Her hair was messy and her former elegant self was nowhere to be seen!
As the secretary dragged her out, Dari spit out some blood. There was some white stuff mixed with the blood!
The secretary was shocked to find two teeth lying on the cold floor in the tiny pool of blood.
The secretary was shocked as her expression changed drastically. She quickly helped Dari up. “CEO Yoo? CEO Yoo? Are you alright?”
Dari felt pain all over her body as her secretary helped her sit down on the sofa.
The secretary handed her a tissue as she was groaning from the agony as she grabbed it. Tears were streaming down her face. “Lisa, you witch, just wait and see!”
Bang!
Suddenly, there was a loud noise of the door slamming shut. Dari’s face went taut for a moment as she quickly glanced over at the door. Then, she noticed Luna rushing in.
“Mother? What happened? I saw Lisa just storm off furiously!” Luna rushed inside as she asked.
She quickly went over and took a closer look when she heard Dari groaning. Upon seeing the terrible state of Dari, she was dumbfounded!
“Mother! What happened?” Luna shrieked as she hurried over. With a stern glance at the secretary, the latter quickly left the room.
Dari then started sobbing loudly as she hugged Luna. “It’s that witch, Lisa! She just attacked me right away! She must be here to avenge Chitthip. Luna, you have to take revenge for me! Is Chitthip dead? She’d better be dead so that your father won’t miss her ever again!”
Dari was bearing double the pain. She bawled her eyes out as tear stains remained on her swollen face, making her appear very much different from her usual elegance.
“Mother!” Luna gently wiped the blood from her mouth. “Are you alright? Your teeth… Mother, she actually used so much force on you!”
Luna looked at Dari’s teeth as a cold light flashed past her eyes. Even her tone turned bitter.
“Is Chitthip dead?” Dari asked as she wiped some more blood off her face.
Luna looked downward and saw the hope in Dari’s eyes. After a while, she replied, “I just received a call from Secretary Wang. Chitthip woke up, but she’s lost her sight.”
Dari’s expression turned grim for a moment, but she started giggling towards the end. “Haha! She deserves it! Blind! Chitthip, I’d like to see you fight me now! Chitthip is blind!”
With the maniacal laugh coming from her swollen face, she looked pretty hideous while she indulged in the pleasure of getting revenge.
“Mother, you’d better get your injuries checked at the hospital to avoid an infection. How dare Lisa do this to you? We’ll have the hospital prove it and we’ll hold a press conference! Then, we’ll see how arrogant she can be this time!”
Luna emitted a cold aura around her. The newspapers everywhere were still talking about howDari had pushed Chitthip down the stairs. If it was not handled well, they might be in trouble!
It was Chitthip’s fault in the first place. Not only did she drag Dari down with her, but no matter what, Luna felt how unfair it was because Chaeyoung was still safe and sound.
If she were to talk about someone she hated, it would be Chaeyoung. After all, she had badmouthed her a lot back then and Luna still remembered it until today!
It would be great if Chaeyoung fell off the staircase and suffer a miscarriage. Then, she would be hurt and it would leave a huge impact on Lisa as well!
As for Chitthip, Luna did not really despise her. Sometimes, she would even be envious of Lisa for having a mother like her. When she thought about that, she then glanced at the outraged Dari.
Whenever relationship issues were involved, Dari always acted rashly. In the past two decades, she had no idea how to make Marco happy. She could either beg or throw tantrums like the last time. Sometimes, she even lashed out at Marco directly.
She had seen it too frequently over the years. Marco would ignore her and treat her coldly, then she could not stand it and would start a fight with him. They would stop talking to each other for several days, and Marco would often come home very late.
Sometimes, she wished she could have a mother like Chitthip and have Marco as her father. That would be really perfect.
If Chitthip and Dari swapped places, her life would not be so tough now, would it?
Unfortunately, Chitthip did not have the Yoo family backing her up.
Luna chuckled to herself. Was she mad?
This terrible-looking woman in front of her right now was her own mother. Why would she have thoughts like that?
Dari, who was still overjoyed after she heard the news from Luna, nodded. “Right, proof from the hospital! I’m not going to let Lisa get away after she did this to me. Just wait!”
“Mother, all the newspapers are talking about how you pushed Chitthip down the staircase. I’ve gotten people to suppress the news, so I had to reveal Shen Wenna’s relationship with Father. So please, you need to act like you’ve always been the victim. It’s all Chitthip’s fault. Do you understand?”
Luna’s eyes were aloof as she spoke and a chilly smile appeared on her face.
Dari understood her immediately. “I get it. Chitthip is a shameless woman who keeps bothering your father. She’s a wicked witch! Moreover, Lisa beat me up like this. Everyone needs to be clear what happened.”
The smile on Luna’s face grew even wider. “That’s right. I know that Father been visiting Shen Wenna’s place frequently lately. These words should be convincing. Don’t worry. We’ll be able to resolve the issue this time.”
“But what about your father? Many people heard what he said the other day and I’m worried.” Dari looked at Luna hesitantly.
“Father will just have to compromise if he can’t take the pressure. I’m sure he won’t be able to stand it if you ask Uncle to pressure him more. What else can he do? He’ll have to be considerate about Chitthip after everything is revealed.” Luna sounded very calm.
Her words worked like a charm for Dari who finally calmed down.
-
When she walked out from Yueying, the sky outside had darkened and the rows of streetlights had lit up. The city was ablaze with glorious lights.
Lisa swiftly got into the car and drove away.
Lucas, who was not too far away behind her, signaled the bodyguard in a black suit beside him. Immediately, the bodyguard drove after her while Lucas remained seated in another car as he fixed his gaze on the entrance of Yueying.
At this moment, his phone suddenly began ringing, so Lucas quickly answered it.
“Hyung, it’s me. Someone anonymously sent something to us Time Magazine through email. I’m afraid the other magazine publishers have received them too. It’s about Chitthip and Marco all these years…”
Lucas already understood what his last sentence meant.
“Can you find out who sent it?” asked Lucas calmly.
“I’ve checked the IP. It’s from abroad, so I think it’s quite odd.”
“Try your best not to let these things be reported. Check who else received the same things.”
“Got it.”
