Fifty-two

3 months later...

Sana

"There is a letter for you, Sana!" I heard Kihyun yelling from outside and I went to get the door and he passed the letter to me. "It is from a Japanese bank so I guess that it is something that you had from your father."

"Thanks for getting it for me," I said to him as I got to my room, opened the letter and sat down to read the contents inside.

I got kidnapped by my father 3 months ago and he dragged me back to Japan to marry me off to the crown prince, and it wasn't successful for me and I didn't get married to the crown prince. Instead, a lot of great things happened to me, and it was a good ending for me and I came back to Gwangju in no time.

I have always known that the crown prince, Prince Haruto didn't like girls, he has female employees and he met a lot of females around his age and I have seen the way that he looked at them on national television, he didn't look like he was ever interested into looking at them and the eye contact that he gives them is less than 5 seconds and he would look somewhere else.

Even if I got to meet him in person by chance, he didn't look at me much and even if he did, there was no spark in his eyes and everything was just platonic from the start to the end and he only saw me as a friend and nothing much.

That was why he didn't even hesitate to help me out when he found out that he had to marry me, we could have gotten married to each other if there was no choice but he would be so miserable being married to me. And it is also because my father got a stroke right before the wedding and it gave enough reason for him to call off the wedding it would have been so scandalous if he continued to marry me under all of this chaos so it is the best decision that he has ever done for a dear friend.

And he only met once and he had done all of that to me and even come out to the world as gay, he even announced that he won't be marrying any females ad his spouse and he will get married to a guy if he ever wants to get married again and I got out from the engagement officially with that.

I got my freedom back and I am free to do whatever I wanted to I have a father who is bedridden because of his retribution and I am not even going to be there for him throughout his entire recovery process, it is the best if he will not be able to sit up and speak another word ever again.

The Minatozaki empire had lost an emperor to stroke and I have decided to end the empire by selling it off to some other corporation that wants it and I am going to donate most of it and leave some for me because I am the rightful owner of the Minatozaki empire and I deserve to do whatever I want with it, I had instructed one of his people on how to handle the money and I expect to see the entire sum of money in cheque sent to me.

I looked at the cheque and a huge smile appeared on my face as I stared at the cheque, I am not surprised to know that the empire has such a high net worth but it feels good to know that I am holding most of it in my hand, just In one sheet of paper and it is equivalent to 60% of the entire company.

I am going to be so rich... I smiled as I continued to stare at it for the next few hours and a sudden thought came to my mind, what the hell am I going to do with this huge lump sum of money?

"What are you going to do with that money?" Hyungwon asked me when we were having dinner. "Make sure that you split the amount into more than 2 different accounts because it is harder for scammers to take everything."

"Got it," I told him but I don't know what I want to do in my life, for the past 3 months after coming back from Japan, my life has completely changed and it was never like before.

I got my identity back and I am no longer an illegal immigrant, I am still living with Hyungwon and Kihyun and I am planning to move out as soon as I got the money so I have got one thing set in the plan for me but other than that, there isn't anything else that I would like to do with that huge amount of money.

I could use that money as an investment in their restaurant but they wouldn't want to take it, it is my own money after all and I don't think that they are ever thinking of expanding their restaurant any time soon. They could move in with me and we could rent out the entire penthouse but they would reject my offer once again so I am back to square one again.

"What did you want to do when you were younger? Maybe you can think of it and come up with a solution, it is not like you are going to work for me forever right? There is no way that I will allow a multimillionaire to work as a waitress for the rest of her life and live in such a shabby apartment." He said to me and Kihyun nodded his head in agreement.

"It is not that shabby, the roof is not leaking half the time so it is a decent apartment," I said to both of them.

"But whatever that you are going to do, we will be supportive of your decision because we are one big family." Hyungwon held my hand and squeezed it. "Just take your time to think over it, there is no rush for you to come to a decision as soon as possible. We will talk about this once you come back with an answer."
