Both Tae Hee and Sooyoung got up extremely early the next morning. One was headed to the hospital and the other one was planning to meet up with her lawyer.

Both the mother and daughter got into their own respective cars and drove off early in the morning.

Tae Hee had wanted to meet up with her lawyer to discuss about the compensation that Irene had asked for. Her lawyer suggested that she could simply transfer four hundred million dollars today and inform Irene that the rest would be given in the next two days due to difficulties in transferring the funds. The lawyer also advised Tae Hee not to mention anything about the shares for the time being. This was because the lawyer was trying to gain as much time as possible to eliminate any unfavourable evidence that could incriminate Tae Hee. The lawyer felt that in this way, Irene would have a lower chance of success even if she insisted on bringing the case to court eventually.

"What should I do if Irene asks me about the shares?"

"I have already prepared a video for you. Just tell her that I am already in the midst of arranging the share transfer for her," the lawyer replied as he sent the video to Tae Hee. "She is only here for the money so it is very unlikely that she would expose this matter to the public. The only reason she is doing this is so she can coerce you and gain some monetary benefits. I have seen plenty of people like her. You have to be firm. Do not give in even if she threatens you. She is the one asking for money, so we hold the final say."

"Alright then." Tae Hee nodded. At this time, the only person that she trusted was her lawyer.

Sorry, Mr. Lawyer.

Irene was in fact the kind of person who would expose everything to the public after three days. The only reason she was asking for money was because that money belonged to the Bae family and Lisa in the first place!

On the other hand, Sooyoung had just completed a series of examinations and tests at the hospital which included an ultrasound of her private part, and also a TCT and HPV test.

"Doctor, is there anything wrong with me?" Sooyoung asked anxiously as she sat directly across the doctor.

As the TCT and HPV test results were not available immediately, the doctor could only give her opinion based on her analysis of the current situation.

"I would suggest that you check into the hospital for at least a few days," the doctor, who was an old gynaecology specialist, replied bluntly to Sooyoung's question. "It is not advisable for you to go home in your current condition."

"Can you just tell me what the matter with me is?" Sooyoung asked once again.

"Miss Park, listen carefully to what I have to say. There are irregular lumps and growths in your cervix with irregular borders. This means that the results might turn out to be rather pessimistic—it is highly possible that those are malignant growths, which suggests that you have cervical cancer. We can only confirm this after we received the results of your TCT and HPV tests. However, based on your current condition and symptoms, the possibility that you have cervical cancer is extremely high. Therefore, it is advisable for you to be hospitalized so we can proceed with active treatment immediately. Do you understand what I am saying?"

Sooyoung's mind went blank as soon as the doctor spoke.

"That is impossible, doctor. I am still so young...how is it be possible for me to get cancer?"

"There are many people nowadays who are contracting cervical cancer at a young age. I have a patient currently undergoing treatment who is only twenty-five years old. There are many different factors that could lead to cervical cancer such as having sexual intercourse at a young age, having many different sexual partners, undergoing many abortion surgeries, and so on."
