"Wow! she's so pretty! unfortunately she's a s.l.u.t!"

"just another pretty face...tsk! can't she use her brain a little?"

"I've seen a lot of pretty women hook up with dirty old men for money...this Yeri Zhi sure is dumb for wasting her face to a dead loser!"

"ha! Yeri used to be my schoolmate back in highschool, as expected she's still whoring around! it wasn't enought for her to seduce a handsome teacher back then!"

"f*ck i didn't know Sin City is hiding such a heaven defying beauty! I don't care if she's a b.i.t.c.h, does anyone here know how to contact her or how much for a night with her?"

"seriously! this type of woman is a shame to her family! i wouldn't be surprise if she's some old man's mistress!"

Hei Ryung's hands was shaking from the overwhelming joy, her eyes almost gouge out from reading the netizens slanderous comments.

That b*tch finally got her retribution!

What else could this be but fate!

Hei Ryung laughed like a lunatic and hurriedly went to her daughter's room, loudly pounding the door.

"Mom! what's your problem?" Venice angrily opened the door, she never once went out of the house for the past 3 days since she left the casino hotel.

"Venice i know you're upset staying in this rented condo but you can't push the blame to your mother!" Hei Ryung sounded aggrieved but didn't took it to heart, she's feeling so ecstatic that no one can ruin her day. "Nevermind that, have you seen the news?! quick! prepare your things, we can finally go back to our old house!"

Hei Ryung's villa was provided by the Zhi Patriarch back then and closer to the main family's manor but Venice couldn't live there temporarily after they accused Yeri of having a boyfriend so Hei Ryung rented a condo for Venice since she doesn't want to spend more money in a hotel.

"What do you mean?" Venice crossed her arms.

"Why aren't you reading daily news? do you know how important it is to know what's going on in our society? aside from the n.o.ble families, you should also know the people within the uppercla.s.s, what if you'll end up offending someone you cannot touch like what happened to that b*tch daughter of Klaus!"

"Yeri offended someone?" Venice sounded surprised.

Hei Ryung giggled and showed the news from her phone. "see? I was right all this time! that sl*t has a boyfriend but who would have a thought it's one of the terrorist! hahahaha! I can't wait to see everyone's faces especially that ugly step-mother of her! what innocent and pure?! ha! shame on them! the heiress they've pampered all this time is nothing but just a pretentious, dirty wh*re! let's see how the Zhi can cover this up! with this kind of scandal it's impossible to turn it around! whoever revealed her secrets must be someone with a higher status than the Zhi family."

Venice looked deeply shocked reading the articles about Yeri, her gloomy mood the past few days gradually dissipated.

Heaven is on her side! she can now surpa.s.s Yeri Zhi without doing anything!

"Mom, we had been wronged...there's no need for investigation or evidence, we were telling the truth all this time! but i really can't believe that i'm competing with a cheap woman like her!" Venice gloated.

"stop comparing yourself to that b*tch, now hurry-up and change, there will be a good show to watch later!" Hei Ryung excitedly said.

Yeri Zhi, this is just the beginning of your downfall! I will never let you find a way out of this h.e.l.l! Venice sneered internally.

s.h.i.+n arrived at his company looking like everyone owes him money, he tried to call Yeri but she didn't pick-up making him even more worried.

Sighed, the CEO is so handsome it can make every women pregnant just by looking at his face...it's really a waste that he dislikes women!

s.h.i.+n dialed Yeri's no. again but the call was immediately canceled, did she just hung-up on him? he went straight to his office, slamming the door behind him.

The employees at the President's floor suddenly suffered from constipation, perhaps the CEO can read what's on their mind? it's better to contact their loved ones first, in case they can't go home later.

Inside the CEO's office, s.h.i.+n was on a rampage that it looks like someone just ransacked the place.

After venting out his anger, he slumped on his chair looking forlorn as he dialed Yeri's no. again.

"s.h.i.+n? what's up?! I couldn't answer your call earlier because i was in the car with my Mom." Yeri's lively voice went straight into his heart.

"are you home now?" s.h.i.+n gently asked.

"yup! uhm...I know you're calling about the news...s.h.i.+n can you let me take care of this?"

"Why? you know the person behind this? tell me and i'll take care of it within an hour." s.h.i.+n rea.s.sured her.

"Oh...thanks! but i can take care of this myself, it's not really a big deal so..."

s.h.i.+n's expression dimmed as his phone gripped tightened. "you don't need my help? not a big deal?"

There was a moment of silence before s.h.i.+n continued.

"Yeri Zhi...do you know how infuriating it is to hear other people slandering and cursing the woman i love? I can easily suppress this news from all media flatforms, I can buy a million even billions of people to defend you online and I won't even hesitate to kill anyone for your sake but do you know what's impossible? changing a person's mind...whenever they see you or hear your name, they will first remember this ridiculous nonsense, the picture of you and that unknown species together! How about me? do you expect me to pretend that it's fine since your fake lover is dead? tell me...what should i do to change their minds? should i sink this country instead?"

Yeri was tongue-tied, she felt something knotted in her throat and her heartache.

Did she unknowingly hurt s.h.i.+n?
