"How could that happen? What did the doctor say?" Y/N was worried.

"I was peeling the fruit. The doctor said it's fine, Y/N." But before she could finish her words, Grandma already asked: "What happened? What happened to Krystal?"

Taemin brought her to Grandma's side: "She hurt her face when she was peeling the fruit, Grandma."

Grandma looked at her left cheek as it was wrapped. "Come closer." She examined it carefully. "How could you be so careless?" She sighed. "Taemin, why didn't you take good care of her? How could you let her peel the fruit, you should've let the maid do it."

"How deep is the wound?" Grandma added.

Krystal shook her head. "It is okay, Grandma. It's not deep." She replied as Grandma continuously asked a lot of questions.

"That's good then." Grandma sighed. "It should be treated well, you should be more careful next time." Grandma felt sorry for her then patted her hand while sighing.

Krystal lowered her head and tried to control her emotion: "I will, Grandma."

"It's been too long since the last time I saw you, I heard you were unwell. Are you feeling okay now? What did the doctor say? How is the baby?" Grandma continuously asked her questions.

She didn't answer her, she just gripped her hand tightly while still lowering her head.

Looking at her behavior, Taemin hurriedly came over and placed his hand on her shoulder. "The doctor said the baby girl is healthy, don't need to worry about anything Grandma."

Grandma smiled at the good news. "That's great to hear. She is a naughty girl, isn't she? She loves to disturb her mother. I can tell that she will be a cheerful and lively girl when she grows up."

Krystal knew his intention by putting his hand on her shoulder, he asked her to behave and not to make trouble. She flashed Grandma a smile, but her smile was stiff.

She really wanted to shake his hand off her shoulder.

When Grandma coughed, she seized the opportunity to get away from him and grab a glass of water. "Grandma here, drink some water."

Grandma smiled and took the glass. "Krystal, I know that your pregnancy is hard. Try to take a good rest, okay? As a lot of problems have been going on in the company, Taemin is busy and has less time for you. For this, I feel sorry for you."

"It is okay, Grandma. Don't feel bad about it." Krystal stared at Taemin, the only thing she felt toward him was disgust. Looking at him, she would remember everything that he did.

Krystal was locked at home these past few days, she had nobody to interact with. Now she was here with everyone, she didn't want to leave. She took a seat and talked to them.

Since there were a lot of problems going on, the situation was tense. But they tried to shift the topic to happy things, they avoided talking about anything related to the problem. They talked about Joon Min's recovery after the surgery and Krystal's pregnancy.

Taemin did not leave. He was also there, sitting on the sofa and watching them talk. During their talk, Krystal went to the restroom once. They continued their conversation when she returned.

Time passed very quickly, it had been two hours already. As Grandma worried about Krystal's health, she was afraid she might be tired so she asked Taemin to take her home to rest.

"Okay, Grandma." Taemin stood up and smiled. "I will go to the restroom first."

Taemin went to the restroom and washed his hands but he didn't close the door and hurriedly left after that. He held Krystal's hand and looked at Grandma. "We will go home first then, Grandma. I will come over to see you tonight."

"I know you're busy, I am alright now." Grandma smiled at him.

"No matter how busy I am, I want to see you first before I go home. I would be worried if I didn't." Taemin said softly.

Krystal lowered her head, her eyes were full of mockery. After knowing his schemes, she could see how fake he was. All of his words and actions could easily sway people. It was his strong point of manipulation.

He held her hand: "Let's go."

After they left, Grandma gazed at Y/N. "I think they're in a fight, Krystal seemed unwilling to talk to Taeminie."

Y/N smiled. "Perhaps they are in a fight but it should be nothing, they will be better soon just like always."

Grandma nodded. "Where is Jimin?"

"He got information about Dad, so he is looking for him now." Y/N explained.

"There's news about Joo Hyuk?" Grandma seemed to be emotional, he is her son after all.

"Jimin told me this morning, he should be able to find him."

Grandma sighed. "I hope so. He is still the man he was before, he hasn't changed. He always does something foolish. He said he was willing to leave the Park family and abandon everything for Ae Ra but now only based on rumor, he changed his mind."

Y/N knew that indeed Joo Hyuk really loves Ae Ra, perhaps a little too much.

-

Krystal immediately shook his hand off and gazed at him. "You even checked the restroom, did you find anything then?"

But Taemin didn't say anything, he grabbed her hand and dragged her to the parking lot. Inside the car, she leaned on the window as the car started moving. She was anxious because she knew she would be prisoned and locked at home. She felt terrified.

She couldn't stand it, she wanted to have someone to talk to, she wanted to stroll around, and eat outside. She didn't know when she could do those things again. She could only hope Grandma could notice the paper she left so she could discover who Taemin really was and all of his plans.

Before they went to the hospital, she had already prepared a lot of little notes. She knew Taemin wouldn't think she would give up and be obedient. Giving her doctor the notes, she did it on purpose. She knew it would be useless to give it to the doctor so she wasn't surprised when Taemin found out.

Krystal also purposely went to the restroom to make Taemin think that she had left the notes there and she was right, he went to the restroom to check before they left. She didn't hide it there, she just wanted to shift his attention.

She lowered her head and stared at her big belly. It was already five months old, so it was risky to abort it. She was a bit reluctant to do it but what could she do? She couldn't possibly give birth to Taemin's baby. She hated him and wanted to leave him, it would be unfair for the kid.

Taemin seemed to notice her deep thought, he also stared at her belly: "Now you're contemplating?"

But she didn't answer.

"Don't even think about it. I won't let you abort this baby. She is already five months old, it would be too cruel to not let her come into this world, don't you think?"

Krystal chuckled and glared at him. "Giving birth to her is also a cruel thing!"

Taemin hit the steering wheel. "So you still want to abort her?"

"Yes!"

Taemin gripped the steering wheel and said: "Then let's see if you could do it, I want to see which doctor would be willing to help you."

"Now you have power so you think you are that great? Do you think you can do everything as you like? You don't have control over me, I will do whatever I want! It's okay if no one is willing to help me, do you think I can't do it by myself? What about if I jump out of the car now? She would die, right?"

"Don't you dare!" He bit his lip.

"Just try whether I dare or not!" She challenged him.

Taemin suddenly shifted his steering wheel and stopped on the road side. He leaned forward and pulled her. He looked her in the eyes: "If you hurt my daughter, I will make your parents pay."

Krystal raised her hand to slap him but he gripped her wrist.

"You still have the guts to slap me?"

She tried to get away from his grip. "Taemin, besides threatening me using my parents, what else can you do?"

Taemin just laughed: "I prefer an efficient way, I don't care what you think."

"You son of a bitch!" Krystal yelled.

"Whatever." He started the car again.

Taehyung opened the car that was parked near the tree and got inside. "President Park, he is not there."

They had been checking hotels around the city, they also checked his credit card and every card record he owned. But it was useless, until this morning, they found out that after returning from Busan, he stayed in Seoul but he didn't stay in any of the houses they own. He stayed at a rented house in the suburb.

Jimin nodded: "We already got his location, I will look for him later. Let's just go now."

Now they still had more important things to do.

Yesterday at Park Jae Kyung's assistant's funeral, Jimin noticed that everyone related to the assistant was present except his wife. Even though they said it was because of her last suicide attempt that she needed to stay at the hospital. But Jimin found out that the woman didn't really have any intention to kill herself because her wound was just a simple scratch, she avoided her main artery.

She was staying at the hospital for a few days due to her malnutrition, but there was no other obstruction. Besides, she was making fuss about her husband's death, she even attempted suicide but how could she skip her husband's funeral? If she really loved him, how could she miss her final goodbye?

After missing the funeral, Jimin immediately asked Taeyung to check her condition. He found her leaving the hospital so he followed her. She stopped at a house and unlocked the door then went inside. Taehyung waited for her outside the house.

She unexpectedly had the energy to leave the hospital but still missed her husband's funeral? Moreover, she didn't look sad or heart-broken even the slightest.

Luckily Taehyung didn't have to wait for a long time, she already opened the front door and came out with disheveled hair. She was crying and cursing as a man followed her. That man chased her and hugged her. At the beginning the woman struggled in his embrace but after a while she hugged him back even though she was still crying.

The woman hugged another man intimately on the day of her husband's funeral?

Taehyung pulled out his phone to take a picture before they went back inside the house.

He informed Jimin about what he just witnessed. Jimin asked him to find out about the man and Taehyung found out that he was a reporter for a magazine. He was the one who reported and published the story about the woman's disturbance act in front of the company and her attempted suicide.

They came to the conclusion that they both teamed up from the start. Afterwards all the woman's action after the husband's death is directed by the reporter. But what did this reporter have to do with the Park company?

There must be someone behind them.

Jimin asked Taehyung to have people to follow that male reporter. Perhaps they could get some key information from him.

At this moment, Jimin was sitting down inside his car. He was looking at the coffee shop. "Have you checked his bank account? Is there anything?"

Taehyung immediately shook his head: "I've had someone check it, but there's nothing."

Jimin nodded.

Today, they got news that the reporter went to a coffee shop. They were watching outside but they couldn't get a clear view. But if they tried to get inside, he would notice them.

After a long time, he still hadn't come out yet but they noticed a familiar figure. Taehyung was startled and pointed at the window. "Isn't that Mr Lee's assistant?"

Even though it was quite far, Jimin could still recognize him. It was indeed Taemin's long term assistant. When Taemin was abroad, he also stayed abroad with him.

The assistant left with his car while the reporter was still inside.
