|KIM FAMILY MANSION|
Tuesday, 12th Jan 2023, 
Quarter to nine in the morning.

The morning was calm and serene in the Kim family's mansion. And hence, the family had dined in the courtyard for breakfast.

"Dad, I just wanted to let you know I do not want to inherit your throne as the owner of Red Diamond Group. However, mom's not keeping quiet about it." The eldest son of the family, Namjoon stated as his step-sister, Mi-rae sighed quietly.

"What do you mean Namjoon-ah? I was just thinking about your bright future!" Yelled out the woman who was fixing her hair. Seol-ha dramatically touched her forehead and slumped herself on her chair. Namjoon looked at her. Kinda frustrated. "Mom! How many times do I have to tell you? You don't have to look after what's good and what's not for me. I am the one eligible for that. I created my own Automotives brand, I wanna create my own future. And I will." Said the man.

"Now you started to talk back too? Did you forget I was your mom?" She spoke as she glared at him. Namjoon stayed cool and kept on looking at her. "I didn't. However you forgot that I'm your child and not some plaything." Namjoon stated as he stood up. "I don't have any appetite anymore. I'm going in. I shall head to my company." Namjoon said as he walked away.

Chang-han sighed.

"If he doesn't want to, then why are you forcing him? He's good on his own, he's good in his own career. Why the fuck force him?" Chang-han asked. Seol-ha stood up abruptly. "Do you not want to hand him over your company 'cause he's not your biological son? I knew it was something like that. Oh holy father! What shall I do about this?" Seol-ha cried out as she looked up at the sky. Mi-rae shook her head in disappointment. Chang-han rubbed his face as he sighed. "Why you..." He halted when she rushed away inside.

She ran towards the room she shared with her husband and rushed inside locking the door. "Damn that old man. He still isn't ready to hand over his company to my son, Namjoon. I've tried many ways to lure him towards that, but still. He never once listens to that. What a stubborn man!" She gritted her teeth.

"If only..." She paused. And she started to laugh. "If only I kill her..." She laughed psychotically. "Everything should be fine if I do so..." Cunningly, she stated.

"I want my son to own his company. So that my one step towards destroying Kim family's prestige would be successfully achieved! I will snatch everything Chang-han owns. And kick that woman out of my way!" She stated as she laughed cunningly.

As expected from a cunning wife of Kim Chang-han. Rumours about her are that she has some underground connections with wanted men. And that she can do anything to achieve something she wants. It's been 5 years since she's wanting her son to inherit his step-father's throne but, Chang-han isn't even thinking about wanting to do that in the first place.

Seol-ha is a cunning woman. If she wants to, she may kill anyone in her way.

She went out of her room to her son's room to make him accept her request again.

|JEON HOUSE|

"Mom, I'm not hungry." Jeongguk stated. "Do I care? You have to eat this. I'm sure you didn't even touch the food last night." Mrs. Jeon, Jeongguk's mother snapped. An arrogant brat's arrogant mother, but only for his good.

Jeongguk sighed. "Oh mom..." He massaged his forehead. He knew there was no winning over this deal. He sat on the chair by the table as his mom served him an omelette with 3 breads along with mango juice. "Mom, I won't be eating-" "You have to. I won't listen to anything. The butler has complained me about you not eating good. So don't you dare say no." Mrs. Jeon stated.
