Pink shook her head. “No hope. But it’s fine. I get to spend time with my family.” She smiled. 1

“Good for you.” Diana returned a crooked smiled. “I’m a fugitive now. Everyone wants me dead.”

“I have a place. No one would know you’re there.” Pink patted her hand.

“I knew I could still count on you.”

“I thought you hated me? Or don’t you hate me anymore?” Pink asked.

“You think I have a choice?” Diana sat on the carpet grass beside Pink. “You’ve seen him recently, haven’t you?”

Pink didn’t need to ask who it was to know. “I wish I didn’t.” her hands on her lap balled into tight fists.

Diana saw that but didn’t probe. Instead, she asked, “He disdained you, didn’t he?”

Pink turned her head to look at her friend. “I wish he did.”

“Oh? Then it must be something incredible. Would you mind sharing? Maybe it would ease my hatred for you a little.”

“He’s a douchebag. He did this to me.”

Diana trailed her gaze to Pink’s knees. After a long silence, she said; “Impressive.”

Although she made it seem like she was rejoicing, her tone gave her away.

“Don’t feel pity for me. I want to kill that bastard.”

“Hahahaha… are you aware he’s the man I love?”

“Then why did you come here? He’d be able to protect you better. You knew that, yet chose to come to me. Why?”

“Why else? To torture you and kill you slowly.” Diana smirked.

“We both know that’s a move you can’t make. So why did you come to me instead of going to the man you love? After all, Nancy must have locked you up in their mansion. Let me guess; Nancy told you everything before she left?”

“And you think I’d believe the bullshit she said?”

“So, why are you seeking my help if you believe in yourself? Diana, it’s been a long time. We were both young and irrational. You knew, just like me, that my Aunt was only using us and making us

dance to her tune.

“Lhad no idea Hwang Min was the man you talked about… You know what, let’s leave it at that-”

“Alex if you don’t continue what you’ve already started, I’ll slit your throat right here and now!”

“My Lady!” Jacy, whom no one knew when she joined them, intervened from her standing position. If Diana kills Alex, they’ll all be dead!

“Stay out of it!” Diana yelled.

“We’ll all die if you kill her! Jeslyn won’t let us off!”

“I told you to stay out of it!!” She threw a small knife at Jacy who immediately dodged it. The woman was very furious and everyone could see that.

“Diana, is my explanation so important to you?”

Diana chuckled dryly. “For so many years, you made me look like a fool! I lived every day of my life knowing that you were hiding something important from me! It gave me nightmares knowing that you were going through hell fighting for us! Your sister, you, and me.

“Alex, you were so ruthless to yourself and us that even when your sister died, you refused to spill the beans. Not anymore. If you don’t tell me everything as it all happened from your point of view, I promise you, I’ll kill you and kill myself.

“Even when we get to hell, I won’t leave you alone!” She–gritted her teeth and balled her fist to suppress the urge to hold Pink’s neck. The bitch was just staring at her like she was a child throwing

tantrums.

“Alex!” Diana yelled. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

“Fine, if you want to know, I’ll tell you.”

…

“Clap! Clap! Clap!”

“The unfilial daughter is here, presenting herself as the purest goddess in the world. Whilst hiding filth and evil and schemes behind that innocent face of hers.

Jeslyn froze and looked around to see who owned those insults but rather everyone was looking at her. She traced the voice and saw Mr. Hwang standing a distance away with five guards. One of them held a briefcase as they stood gallant without joy in their faces.

“Is this how you treat your father?! I wasn’t even invited to this occasion.” He laughed mockingly.

Jeslyn left the table and made her way to him.

“On what ground are you saying that?!” Jeslyn asked. Neither angrily, nor friendly.

“What are you doing here?” Brian’s angry voice drifted over.

“You too. I knew you’d be here-”

“That hasn’t answered my question. What are you doing here?!” He barked.

Hwang Min turned sharply to look at Jeslyn. “Transfer it back to me.“.

“Transfer what to you?”

“You want to play daft with me? That which Nancy gave to you, return it to me, then we will stay out of each other’s life.”

“This is my niece’s baby shower. Can you show some decency and go home? What do you want to achieve by causing trouble here?!” Brian was frustrated by this man’s lack of insight.

However, Jeslyn didn’t see it that way. The man was very insightful. He is here to ruin her reputation and force her to reveal her true colors, or pressure her to sign the documents she was sure was in the briefcase his men were holding.

But he calculated wrongly. She is the goddess of schemes!

“Mr. Hwang, I know you never liked me, but can you not do this right now? What If your actions cause me my baby girl?”

Brian immediately picked up after his sister. “Return home. If anything happens to my niece, you might not be able to bear it. Unless you mean to harm them.”

you talk to “So what if I do? You listened to that witch and turned your sister against me. Look at how me. Do you respect me as your father? Is this how children talk to their father?!” The man yelled. Jeslyn looked around. Everyone had gathered around them. Whatever wrong thing she says would either make or ruin her career. So she chose her words carefully.

With a smile on her face, she said, “Mr. Hwang, don’t be like this. We shouldn’t wash her dirty linen outside. Let’s go into the house to discuss this.”
