I always behaved well. Especially in front of elders. And I became the center of their affections and attention. At least I was before she came.

Baek Hanneul was the long lost daughter of my uncle who owns the most shares of the Baek family owned corporation, the BH Group of Companies, named after Hanneul herself before she was born.

Baek Family was nothing but a middle class family with a prominent and noble background in history. A respectable family with not much standing amongst all the Chaebols of Korea.

But everything changed when Baek Hanneul's father took over as the family head at the young age of nineteen and created a prosperous path for the family.

He worked hard and contributed a lot to increase the net worth of all the pillar members of the family especially himself. He paved the way for the family to become a prominent Chaebol clan within ten years only that shocked and amazed so many people in both the country and Asia itself.

"Seon-Ho, can you hand me my make up kit? I forgot to bring it with me."

Hanneul requested with a soft voice behind the bathroom door of her hotel room.

"Just a moment."

I calmly answered before I unhurriedly picked up her makeup kit pouch and made my way towards the bathroom.

I gently knocked on the door and handed over her stuff before walking back to my previous position and cozily made myself at home on her bed with a book in hand to read.

When Hanneul returned, everyone turned their affections and attention towards her. Everyone did their best to please her.

I also tried my best to gain her trust and friendship. Not because I want to but because I want to survive unlike the others who were forgotten and burried away from everyone's heart and mind.

In a big family like ours, only the ones with the strongest survival tricks will be able to live well. And my trained patience and honed skills and ability to make other like me made it easier for me stand on top next to Hanneul.

"Which dress do you think will suit me? The pink one, the red one, or the black one?"

Hanneul showed three sets of attires awaiting for my response.

The pink one looked dainty but revealing. The red one looked decent at first until you see the vulgarly revealing back design. The black one would have been fine if it weren't so scandalously short.

I openly grimaced at her choices and brought out her luggages to check the dresses she brought. My right eye twitched in irritation at what I saw.

"Who packed your luggage?" I asked.

Hanneul pouted and threw the clothes in her hands away.

"It was Ye-Jun who did it."

I sighed and took a picture of everything and sent it to her father's spy that worked as Hanneul's body guard.

"What would you do If I am not with you? Why are you tolerating these acts?" I asked with a frown.

"Because I wanted to see how far they'll go just to disgrace me."

She only smiled after her statement which made me shake my head in helplessness.

"Don't make Uncle worry too much."

I gently patted her forehead with the palm-tip of my index finger.

"One of these I'm gonna charge Uncle with babysitting fees because of you."

I lightly teased her before sending a message to one of my bodyguards to bring the extra suitcase I packed.

I made Hanneul wear a simple flowy dress that reached the top of her knees with a buttoned up neck line. She paired it with a classic and elegant patterned designer coat. She then paired it up with a matching cap and boots and a simple pair of pearl earrings.
