Chapter 80: The Truth (2)

After hearing the words that came out of Ivy's mouth, everyone in the room could only remain silent. They were lost in their own thoughts because of their shock.

Steve even opened his mouth wide and didn't blink for a few seconds, with his eyes rounded as if they were about to pop out of place. He couldn't believe that the person who had been helping him was the same person who wanted to destroy his family.

The situation became strange and awkward. It felt like the air in this room had disappeared somewhere. No one made a sound. Only the sound of the television on noisily became a help when the silent atmosphere trapped the people who were there.

"Steve?"

Ivy patted Steve lightly on the back of his hand to bring him back to reality. Steve gasped in surprise at the touch. He shook his head and covered his mouth, then directed his attention to Ivy with a strange smile that somehow managed to be etched on his lips.

"Yes?"

"Are you okay?"

Ivy was more worried ab

It was the perfect time for him to relax after working for more than 14 hours. Coincidentally, his wife was away visiting they son, who was at Ben and Terry's base. So he had some me time all to himself.It was supposed to be the perfect time to relax. However, that plan was ruined when he saw Kai sitting across from him with his face bent. Barbara furrowed his brow, feeling strange about Kai's uninvited presence. It was impolite to tell him to leave. Barbara closed his eyes while letting out a tired sigh."Mr. Kai, I didn't mean to send you away. But why did you come this late?" Barbara said as he massaged his throbbing forehead.Kai was silent for a few moments. He did not reply to the question and chose to stare at Barbara with a sharp gaze. His mouth was locked tightly so that it formed a straight line on his lips.Not getting the desired response made Barbar

    Bab 82: Explanation (2)This morning, Steve was already at the office of Rosemary Corp. In the room provided by his father, there were several folders piled up that he had to study and complete.The folders covered the entire surface of the desk, leaving no room except for the laptop he was working on. In addition, the height of the stack of folders was also quite high, about 50 cm.Steve, who was basically sleep-deprived from discussing the plan to "catch Kai," yawned widely. His eyes looked so tired, with faint black eye bags on his face, making him look unrefreshed."Ukh, I'm sleepy," Steve muttered softly. His eyes were closed several times as he typed on the keyboard.Ivy, who was in the same room as Steve, could only let out a long sigh. The girl immediately approached Steve and patted his shoulder, who was almost asleep."Steve, are you okay?" Ivy asked with a worried face. She bit her lip, with her hand clutching the folder she was holding."You look tired. Did you get enough

"Kai," Steve called Kai in a low voice, ignoring the fear that had gripped his body. "Let her go."Kai smiled wryly. His eyebrows rose with a meaningful look, clearly reflected in his amber bead. "Why would I do that?" He challenged."Because she has nothing to do with either of us," Steve replied, trying to remain calm and unruffled. The man took a deep breath to neutralize his emotions, which were about to boil over.Kai chuckled. He immediately got up from his chair and stood next to Steve with his arms crossed in front of his chest. His eyes turned to Ivy, who was currently rebelling within the confines of his two men."But she's the one who made our relationship like this. And you should know I'm not one to forgive someone easily." Kai said it in a flat tone. The change in his expression was drastic. The small laugh di

Barbara was sitting on a chair with his laptop on his lap. He still had to work to finalize some unfinished cooperation agreements.Terry yawned widely with his eyes half closed. He still felt sleepy, even though he had slept until noon. His body still felt tired and exhausted.Meanwhile, Ben himself rolled his eyes lazily. The man let out a rough sigh, then looked at Barbara intensely."Yes, please forgive us for not having time to tidy up our appearance, Mr. Barbara's. We were afraid you would need us. That's why we came here as soon as we could." Ben pulled Terry's hand to sit on the sofa directly opposite Barbara, taking his as his own. Even though Barbara

In her hand, there was now a tray of Italian lunch food, with some fresh fruit and also a large carton of milk on top.Behind Jessy was a shaggy-haired man with an exotic tan who was currently carrying a medium bag filled with clothes. The man wore yellow glasses perched on his nose.At first, the atmosphere was calm and peaceful. The man gave a small whistle as he walked towards his destination. However, the atmosphere was immediately wiped out when Jessy let out her voice."Akh, why do I have to get the job of delivering food to that woman?" Jessy complained in an annoyed tone. The man behind her let out a long sigh with his eyes closed. His feet did not stop walking down the long hallway that connected the room where Minji was detained with the main building."Because you're the only one with leisure time, Miss Jessy," he said nonchalantl

The reason is that neither his father nor his mother ever mentioned it."Steve?" Kai called in a soft voice. His hand tapped the shoulder of Steve, who was currently silent and focused on his own thoughts. Steve gasped in surprise and immediately centered his focus on Kai, who was currently waiting for his answer."Yes?""What about the offer I made?" Kai gave a sweet smile. He looked deeply at Steve. "Are you interested in hearing about your past from me?"Steve closed his eyes for a moment. He had to make a decision quickly, especially since he still had Ivy to think about."If I may know, how did you find out about my past?" Steve asked hesitantly.Kai pulled the corner of his lips so that the already wide smile became even wider, forming a cruel grin with narrowed eyes. His meaningful expression made a mysterious im

Kai sighed, then immediately glanced at Steve with an awkward look. "We'll talk about this later." Kai immediately walked towards the door to get the food he ordered. Once the food was in hand, he returned to Steve with two large bags in both hands."What did you bring?" asked Steve with raised eyebrows. His tone seemed so curious. With his hands folded in front of his chest."Some pizza boxes and sodas," Kai said as he picked up the table in the corner of the room, then shifted it right next to Steve's right. After that, Kai immediately arranged the food that had just arrived on the table."Junk food? Are you sure we're going to eat this?" Steve said doubtfully. The reason was that he had been eating that kind of food for the past few days. He just didn't want to gain weight because of the food he

Think that we're going to have a lot of profitable cooperation this time." Terry paused his words to take a breath."And as the heir to Rosemary's family, you should be able to turn this family around and get back on top," Terry continued.Steve sighed in disappointment when Terry didn't tell him. Coupled with the pressure the man was putting on him, it made Steve feel even more Pressure than before."I know that I have to bring this company back to the top. But how? You know I'm just learning the business world," Steve complained.Ben and Terry looked at each other. Both of them were also thinking about the same problem that Steve was thinking about.They couldn't be with Steve all the time because of their role as "double agents" in Rosemary's family.Also, they couldn't trust Kai to teach Steve about bus

The autopsy was announced in court, as was prosecuting Minji, who was the suspect in this incident.Steve sat in the chair as a witness. He had left everything to the lawyer hired by Kai. After all, this was the final battle between him and Minji to prove whether she was guilty or not.Behind him, there were many people who came to see the trial. In addition, many of the media were allowed to record this incident since it was an open trial. They were filming this event because Rosemary was one of the most influential figures in the business world (and growing in Steve's hands).Steve felt his heart beating very hard. He hoped that Minji would not appeal the verdict. After the clerk announced the verdict, a 40-year-old woman who represented the forensic doctor, who autopsied the bodies of her father and mother, entered."I am Fela, the forensic doctor who will bear witness to the truth of t

How could the culprit have been found? What evidence has been found? The thoughts kept spinning in his head endlessly, making him dizzy himself.Terry turned his attention to Ben, who was now frowning. The man with heterochromia eyes looked silent, as if he were analyzing the situation in this house.“What do you mean, sir?” asked Ben quickly, representing Terry’s question, who was about to ask the same question.The detective smiled faintly at Terry and Ben. “Yes, the culprit has been found. I just need additional evidence to support it.”“That fast?” asked Steve in an incredulous tone. He rounded his eyes, unable to believe what he had just heard.His heart seemed to stop beating as his face paled. Was the detective in front of him playing games with him? Or was he telling the truth? Because, as he rememb

They stared at each other before finally turning their faces the other way."You want me to be the father of the child inside your stomach?" Steve asked to be sure.Minji nodded her head quickly. Her eyes were sparkling, and her gaze was full of pleading. She looked at Steve with her hands clasped in front of her chest."Yes, I beg you. Please be the father of my child. Let's go back to the way we used to be, Steve. I've always dreamed of us being a family again, like-""Stop it there." Steve stopped Minji's words, which were too ridiculous for his ears. He put on a frivolous smile with a sardonic look in his eyes."After you left with another man and are now pregnant, you're asking to get back with me? Have you lost your mind?"Minji's smile now faded, turning into a sad face. Tears now flowed from her eyes again, much more heavily than before. Her sobs sounded so soft and heart-

And here he was, in an airport full of people.After getting their suitcase, the three men quickly made their way out. They had missed the country so much. Fun plans were already running through their brains.Steve inhaled the air greedily, with a small smile on his lips. He was very happy to be back in the country, although on the other hand, he felt a little bad that Mr. Kang had to take care of the rest of his work.As he was about to get a taxi, someone suddenly tugged on the hem of his shirt. Steve turned around to see who it was.His eyes were perfectly rounded, as if they were about to pop out of place. In addition, his heart seemed to stop beating, with his body frozen like a statue. He couldn't believe the person in front of him."Hello, Steve." Steve immediately took the body tightly into his arms. He buried his head on her shoulder. Steve's breathi

Steve lifted his head from the folds of his hands, protecting his face, and looked at his own body.His body was so dirty, covered in cream and crushed tomatoes. The same thing happened to Terry and Steve. "Get the three of you out of here! A vile person like you doesn't belong with the leaders of the company, Mr. Steve," Alexa said angrily. She clenched her fists with a glare at Steve."Ms. Alexa, I-""Get out of here!" Alexa shouted loudly. She grabbed Steve's hand and pushed him hard, knocking him to the ground. Again, Steve felt a sense of dejavu, just like when he was humiliated by Daniel at Layla'

He felt victorious because he had managed to make the man feel cornered.Daniel picked up the mic again, brought it closer to his mouth, and spoke again to make another provocative sentence."I have proof that Steve did that. Do you want to see it?"Again, there was silence for the second time. The audience was shocked by the words that came out of his mouth. "Don't you believe me? I really have proof." Daniel opened his mouth again. He made his tone persuasive so that the audience would believe what he said.The platinum-haired girl, who had been speaking, fell silent. Her mouth opened, and a look of doubt now overcame her. From that alone, the woman who had been supporting Steve now began to have doubts about what she believed in."You must be joking if you have proof." The platinum-haired woman uttered the

The praise they had just given him seemed to have been taken back. In other words, they are licking their own saliva.Seeing the situation turning against him, Terry gritted his teeth. His jaw clenched so tightly that his neck veins stood out. His hands were clenched so tightly that his knuckles turned white. His eyes were bulging, and a dark, black aura now surrounded his body, making the few people who were there step aside because they couldn't stand the dark aura. Let's not forget the dominant demeanor that was getting thicker and thicker around him, making Terry ten times scarier than before.Beside him, Steve and Ben looked quite panicked to see Terry, who was in alert mode. They were both trying to quell the anger of the red-haired man. Steve and Ben stroked Terry's back gently, trying to calm his hot-blooded heart."Terry,

His voice sounded flat, contrary to the state of his heart, which wanted to blame his best friend.Kai sighed. He bit the candy in his mouth until it crumbled and swallowed it slowly. After his mouth was clean, Kai coughed a little. He wanted to create a serious atmosphere between himself and Steve.“Mr. Kang and I planned this,” Kai replied in a low voice. His gaze was still fixed on Steve, though the man was reluctant to look at him.“But why?” Steve massaged the bridge of his throbbing nose, feeling clueless about everything that was happening.“What are you bothering the Griffins for? Didn’t they do anything to the Grayon family and Kang Corp this time?”Kai glared

His mouth was slightly open, but he didn't say anything, as if something were holding his tongue. His heart seemed to stop beating. His mind was suddenly blank, as was the look in his eyes. Feeling something was wrong, Steve gently patted the back of Kai's hand. "Kai?" Steve called out in a slightly louder voice to wake Kai up from his reverie. Apparently, it worked. Kai was stunned and looked at Steve with blinking eyes a few times, gathering the consciousness that had been scattered. "Yes?" He said it spontaneously. "Why are you daydreaming?" asked Steve with a deeply furrowed brow. His tone of voice showed that he was annoyed, which was very different from before, when he was so friendly and warm. "Why are you being quiet? Please answer my question, Kai. I want to know what you're h
