Aish, in the end stupid Eunbyeol breaking down just ruined my day. Urgh!

Seokkyunng was fiddling with her phone in her room. In about 2 days, the SNU audition announcement was to be made. Seokkyung was not too worried but even then she needed to make sure. She quickly called her father.

Appa! I am just calling to check if you are 100% sure I will get into SNU.

My dear daughter, as long as you don't screw up, then everything is fine.

I did not screw up on my auditions and I made sure Jenny choked hers. What about Eunbyeol? You told me she was also going to be taking the auditions. She stands in my way.

Relax, your father has already thought of it and taken preventive measures against it. Don't you know that Eunbyeol is actually disqualified already?

She is? That is fantastic, what did you do to get her disqualified?

I won't tell you, all you need to know is she has been. So with those two out of your way, you should have a smooth road into SNU.

Are you sure the people you bribed will do as you say, how did they know it was me?

I have already planned everything. Even though it is a blind audition there is still an order in which the staff made. I just made sure that your number was given to the specific people. It is all done, you just have to patiently wait for your acceptance letter.

Ha this is amazing! I can't wait. Okay thank you for helping Appa! See you!

Seokkyung was elated, finally she was getting closer to SNU. Although it was not Juilliard, it was still the best in Korea. She turned around when she saw Suryeon standing in her room. She must have come in when she was on the phone.

Omma....

Seokkyung-ah, even if you wanted to get into SNU if you got in with your own merit that is one thing but to collude with your father to sabotage others as a result?? What is that?

Hmph, so what. Appa always said to take what is yours, even if it means you destroy others.

Then those people's lives don't deserve what you took from them? What gives you the right to say you deserve it more than others?

Those people don't have power, but I do.

No you don't. If anything your dad has but you all you did was ask for help.

You can't do anything about it Omma. It is already guaranteed that I will get the SNU placement. Even if you protest, there is nothing you can do. I am already almost an adult, I can decide what I want to do with my life.

Why must you go this far? Didn't you not like music, why the sudden urge to enter SNU?

There is no reason, I want to. You encouraged Rona to pursue her dreams so why can't I?

So are you saying music is your dream??

Well, it is right now.

Then get in with your own effort.

You don't have any right to lecture me. You and Oppa hid from me the fact that he and Rona were going to Julliard. Even though I found the application form, I never thought he would go through with it. So since you two left me out, then you can leave me alone!

Seokkyung stormed out, Suryeon was just shocked by her attitude. She always knew Seokkyung was very much like Dante but she never knew just how alike they were. Now she knew that Seokkyung actually cheated and bribed her way into SNU. Seokkyung fished out her phone.

I need you to give me a report on Joo Seokkyunng's behaviour and grades in school. I want them asap.
