Chapter 452: A Signal.

‘By no means reply the Lee title?’

A-Yeong couldn’t consider that this was the situation at which she could be forgiven. Was her grandfather being critical?

A-Yeong glimpsed at his face, and from the solemn look etched on his face, she knew he meant what he had stated. He was claiming Hee-Younger to the Su household.

To be sincere, A-Yeong didn’t have an issue with that. She didn’t thoughts having her little one to herself as Ji-Tae had misplaced each proper he had over her little one.

He had taken his personal little one hostage and had used her as a software – a bargaining chip. He had threatened her with a baby they’d made collectively, possibly not out of affection, however their little one nonetheless. So, after all, she’d be very happy to have Hee-Younger bear the Su title and never reply the Lee title so she would by no means be recognized as Ji-Tae’s little one.

However regardless of wanting all this, A-Yeong knew she couldn’t act selfishly, as this was extra about Hee-Younger, who was solely seven years previous and never her.

The world wasn’t a good place. There was fixed discrimination between individuals of various social statuses and even these of the identical social standing. Double requirements typically make society a troublesome place to dwell and lift a baby.

…..

Hee-Younger was solely a baby, and she or he had an extended strategy to go. She’d go to highschool, the place she would encounter individuals that may say issues to her – issues that may damage her, like her being born out of wedlock. As a result of regardless of how superior the world appeared, some archaic mentalities and ideologies nonetheless lingered within the thoughts of small-minded and nosy individuals.

And being teased about being born out of wedlock was going to sound refined when some lunatics discover it humorous to name her little one a bastard as a result of that’s what they might say when she bears the Su household title, and she or he’s often known as her mom.

In fact, she may ignore all that and defend her little one. In spite of everything, the Su household wasn’t mediocre in society that anybody may simply mess with. However A-Yeong didn’t wish to do this to her little one, and she or he additionally doubted the opposite members of the Lee household would comply with any of this, to not point out the truth that it was the assistance and energy of Lee Dan-Han that made it attainable for the woman to return residence.

Grandfather’s brows narrowed when he noticed her hesitation. “Are you enthusiastic about it?” He sternly requested, and A-Yeong’s lips quivered.

“Don’t inform me you could have emotions for that animal!” He growled.

“No!” A-Yeong swiftly denied it. “In fact not!” She didn’t have any emotions for Ji-Tae. No matter she might need felt for him was lengthy gone when he left her to face the accountability of her being pregnant alone. And in any case she had been by due to him, all she felt was sheer hatred – hatred for the whole lot that he was and represented.

Grandfather Su narrowed his eyes at her. “Then why are you hesitating? Do you comply with my situation?” He demanded.

A-Yeong’s lips quivered as she tried to talk. “Grandfather, it’s not that I don’t need that, however we must always take into consideration Hee-Younger. No matter resolution we take will mirror on her. Folks may tease her for not realizing who her father is that if she had been to bear our household title. We all know how issues work on this society. Ji-Tae is a horrible individual, however the Lees are nonetheless her household.”

“Nonetheless her household?” The previous man scoffed. His gaze hardened on her. “Now you’re sounding like a hypocrite.”

“I didn’t-”

“You need to have considered all this earlier than dropping her at an orphanage.” He stated in a low drawl. “In case you had simply returned residence together with her, that bastard who I’m so going to take care of wouldn’t have had the chance of laying maintain of her and preserving her away from all her households within the first place. That is a lot fault of yours as it’s his.”

“I-”

“The woman takes our title, and if anybody mad sufficient in nation C tries to make a mockery of her, then they’ll have me to cope with. And if the Lees are shameless sufficient to wish to stake a declare on her, then I’d prefer to see them attempt.” He drawled.

A-Yeong silently peered at him as she knew nothing was left to say. He was the top of the household, and no matter he stated went. Her grandfather has by no means been a lenient individual. His phrase was legislation within the family, and regardless of his age, he nonetheless held the identical energy as he did when he was youthful.

A-Yeong acquiesced with a nod. There could be no additional argument about it. All she hoped for was there to not be any issues about this – not from Ji-Tae, after all, as a result of she prepared had no house in her to think about what he thought or wished, however extra from the opposite members of the Lee household.

If she knew something about them, it was that they had been simply as cussed as her grandfather.

All of them watched because the previous man stood up with the help of his cane earlier than holding Hee-Younger’s hand in his, they usually walked in direction of his examine.

Hei-Ran approached A-Yeong and helped her to her toes. She had been kneeling for a really very long time, so she held her even when she staggered.

The others stood up and hugged her as she apologized to everybody, particularly Hei-Ran’s dad and mom. She had offended them when she framed Hei-Ran for her egocentric goal.

“Uncle, Aunty, I’m actually sorry. I didn’t imply to-”

“It’s okay, A-Yeong. You’ve apologized sufficient, and all of us perceive. You’ve suffered sufficient, my expensive. So cease apologizing.” Hei-Ran’s mom held her chin and wiped her tears.

A-Yeong checked out Hei-Ran’s father, who patted her on the shoulder. Seul-Bi, who had despised her for the longest time for what she did to her sister, smiled and hugged her too.

“Cease crying, sister A-Yeong. All the things is ok now.” She inspired her.

Hei-Ran sighed when it appeared all had been resolved. “I suppose all we have now to do now’s clear up the mess on the firm.” She stated, and everybody’s countenance modified the second they heard that. A majority of them labored in numerous departments of the Su corp; those who didn’t maintain a place there, like Hei-Ran’s father, had been shareholders.

“How unhealthy is it?” Her father requested.

Hei-Ran shrugged. “Not that unhealthy, so far as Ji-Tae doesn’t fall into the authorities’ radar, as a result of if he’s, it’ll all be traced again to us, and that wouldn’t be good,” Hei-Ran defined. Their firm has been used to hold unlawful items, which might give them a whole lot of hassle in the event that they had been discovered. Not solely will A-Yeong endure if an elaborate investigation is completed, however the entire firm will endure.

“So what are you going to do now?” Her mom requested with concern.

Hei-Ran sighed. “I suppose we have now to let go of delivery and guarantee to maintain our information clear. If something arises, we wouldn’t be badly affected.”

“However that’s your a part of the corporate. Grandfather gave that to you.” Seul-Bi talked about with a tragic frown whereas Hei-Ran smiled.

“Properly, it isn’t that productive both, so we are able to let it go and transfer the funds for it to different areas of the corporate.”

“It’s going to be a troublesome one for you. I’m sorry I put you underneath all this stress.” A-Yeong apologized as soon as once more.

“Nonsense. I take pleasure in doing all this once more.” Hei-Ran mockingly chided.

“So that you take pleasure in working right here than in your boyfriend’s firm?” Seul-Bi requested with curiosity.

“I didn’t say that.” Hei-Ran sharply replied.

“Properly, you simply insinuated it. I may swear brother Jin-Hai thinks in another way.” She shrugged. “So, I suppose after the whole lot has been resolved within the firm, you wouldn’t be returning to your job, proper?” She requested, and everybody’s consideration turned to Hei-Ran as they anticipated her reply.

All of them knew the grounds at which Hei-Ran was handed again her job. She had given herself an ultimatum earlier than the shareholders, and she or he had confirmed herself. The quarter was trying promising, and likewise she had been in a position to deliver to mild A-Yeong’s secret, thereby fixing a household drawback.

“So?” Seul-Bi pressed, her arms folded throughout her chest as she peered at Hei-Ran.

Hei-Ran darted her eyes round as she checked out all of the faces observing her. It was apparent they had been hopeful that she would stay within the firm, however she truthfully hadn’t considered that.

The aim for her return had been fulfilled, and she or he may say she was prepared to move again to her previous job, to Jin-Hai – God is aware of how a lot he retains reminding her about it. However proper now, at this second, she wasn’t certain of something.

“I don’t know.” She truthfully replied, and murmurs echoed on the corners of the room.

“You’re nonetheless contemplating leaving?” Her mom requested with delicate shock.

Hei-Ran shrugged non-committally. “I’m undecided about it, mother. However even when I do, A-Yeong is again, and with the change of issues, grandfather may give her again the job. I’m simply not sure of something but.” She advised her mom.

“However you like being again on the firm.” Her mom wasn’t asking as she was virtually sure of it.

Hei-Ran shrugged once more. “I feel so.”

“Then you need to do what you want. If that is about Jin-Hai, I’m certain he’ll perceive and help your resolution. It has all the time been your dream to take over the corporate out of your grandfather, and if that is your alternative at it, then I feel you need to contemplate it. You possibly can work with A-Yeong when your grandfather approves her return to the corporate. But when Jin-Hai doesn’t help it, then I suppose you need to see it as an indication.”

“An indication to what?” Hei-Ran confusedly requested.

“That it may not work with him.”
