He would question her professionalism and throw insults at her from time to time. Just to make her feel Pathetic about herself. That was how he always was and how he basically treated people. And he wasn't any different from Hana.And Hana guessed she was going to take that to her advantage.She walked out of Grandma's room and as she walked down the stairs, she had met Kai there watching TV in the sitting room.She didn't talk to him first because she already knew what to expect.

So I can't take that risk at all" she expressed Coldly.Her parents stared at her as her mother said "But he is your brother! How could you do that to your own brother?" She questioned."Maybe I shouldn't have taken him as my brother in the first place. Someone like him is so not worth keeping around" she snapped, Leaving her parents stunned."So what are you implying now?" Her mother questioned."Maybe it's best that he stays on his own and faces his own problems by himself. He brought it upon himself after all, so it's only right that he faces it alone" She insisted."While for me?" Nora continued "I thin

"He should be looking for me anytime soon now. That's my presumption" Hana expressed. He was having a meal with Jace in a restaurant as they discussed what she had accomplished. She explained what she had done to Kai and what she was gaining from him as well."You did a pretty good job with that. Actually better than expected. I didn't know that you could easily get through this without much help from me. And you already proved it" Jace slowly nodded."I promised that I was going to help you out with it. So at least I have to work hard on helping you. Don't you think so?" He smiled as he stared at the meal before them."So now what do you plan on doing next when he approaches me? I mean...what do I do? Do I only have to follow the initial plan that we made?" She inquired from him.Jace paused as he slowly sipped from the glass of wine in his hand.

I'll be living in the city soon" she informed me.Kai paused on hearing what she had to say. He was thinking for a while and processing what he was saying before he then replied "Oh , that's right. It's been a long time now and lots of things have been happening. So you should get some rest and travel around for some time. That's also good"Kai smiled as he continued "You Should pick a city to travel to and see around. Take a rest and all and when I'm done handling all that I should handle...""That's not what I mean" Nora explained "And I don't mean to say that I'll be taking some break and travelling around for some time ..I mean...I'm going for real this time arou

I don't think that apology from you sound's genuine" She expressed.Kai stared at her, Pissed. She was being all grumpy now as if she was the one in charge.
