After the press conference, Sumi was filled with rage as she left the house. Even though nobody told her where Inha lived, Sumi knew her address from when she was tracking her.
“It's all because of that wench. Haram is doing this all because of the worthless daughter of his” she seethed as she instructed her driver to drive towards the SEVENTEEN penthouse.
Meanwhile Inha said she needed to get some fresh air and left the house. Fei said she'd join her on the walk outside their apartment but Inha said she needed to be alone. She needed to clear her thoughts after seeing the press conference because Inha knew all too well the repercussions that her dad could face because of Sumi. But there was a more pressing thought that troubled her.
The circumstances surrounding mom’s death were sketchy?
She didn't want to believe what her cousin mentioned during the press conference. It troubled her so much. And for some reason she desperately needed Wonwoo to share her thoughts with. She tried calling him but his phone was switched off. Her husband, who had no clue about the press conference, boarded the flight and had his phone on flight mode.
“Okay, breathe. I should be calm. I should be calm for my babies. They can sense my turmoil. I should be calm for them” Inha kept on whispering like a mantra when all of a sudden she was turned around by a strong force and then slapped across her face that made her stumble. A loud ring echoed in her ears as she tried to steady herself as she held her cheek.
“It was you who did this, wasn't it? you made your father go against me didn't you?” Sumi said driving Inha up against a wall in the parking lot. She saw the terrified looking Inha and it only made Sumi want to hurt her further.
“Please, please don't hurt me. I am carrying please” Inha started to plead, not for her sake but for the sake of her unborn twins who were now quite restless in her womb after Inha was slapped.
“Oh, where is the bitch who got confident to face me after she got married? What happened? Now you are suddenly whimpering and asking me not to hurt you? Is your husband not around?” She sneered as she prepared to punch Inha’s stomach.
“Her husband might not be around but his family is, and I must say you are messing with the wrong people, Ahjumma” Fei said as she kicked the vile woman right across her chest making her fall down, showing her martial skills that she learned in China. She was keeping an eye on Inha from the balcony and when Sumi appeared she quickly made her way down with Sarang.
“Come, let's get you inside” Sarang ushered a terrified looking Inha quickly inside the elevator and Fei joined soon after. They also alerted the security who caught Sumi to throw her out of the apartment premises.
“That ought to teach her a lesson. Let's call the police once we go up. I am sure the CCTV cameras would have caught her slapping you.” Fei said as she caressed Inha’s arm, to help her relax.
“It's better to approach the police and file a restraining order with the evidence,” Sarang said and Inha nodded her head. “But first things first, are you able to feel the babies? Or do you want to go to the hospital to check?” Sarang said as they entered the penthouse.
“I can feel them. They feel restless” Inha said, taking a deep breath.
“They are affected because you are affected. Try to relax first. FeiFei, can you bring some water? And some ice?” Sarang asked her.
“Ne, Eonni '' Fei said and went to the kitchen to fetch them. Sarang then started to press Inha’s legs in an attempt to calm her.
“Is it okay now? Here, drink some water and ice your cheek”
“Thanks Eonni,” Inha said, tearing up as the severity of the situation finally caught up to her. “Thanks FeiFei” she said as Fei sat down next to her on the couch. “My babies would have gotten hurt if it weren't for you guys”
“We are family Inha-ya. You don't have to say thanks” Sarang said and Fei nodded her head.
“I don't want Wonwoo Oppa knowing this please, '' Inha requested. “I'll tell him when he gets back. I am feeling okay now so I'll tell him later. Also let's file a restraining order tomorrow”
“Okay, but I am telling my husband and I'll request him not to tell Wonwoo. As the eldest in the household, Seungcheol oppa has to know what's happening to the others and it includes the wives too” Sarang reasoned and Inha mumbled an okay. She was just glad to have such individuals who take care of her like this and therefore she wasn't going to fight them when all they show is love and care. But she knew that she had to inform her father too. She excused herself from the two of them and went inside her bedroom and called her father hoping he wasn't busy after the conference.
“Inha-ya, Uri ttal!” Inha heard him say and she felt a happiness in his voice.
“Hi Appa! How are you? I saw the press conference” she said, sitting down on the bed.
“You did? You didn't expect I'll pull something like this didn't you? My next move is to divorce that woman” He beamed from the other side of the call.
“I didn't know you brought Jeha oppa from China and that you were planning to step down but I am worried for you Appa. Because Kim Sumi might do something to you” she said concerned as she started to twirl the chain around her neck that contained her wedding ring.
“Don't worry my daughter. I'll make sure she doesn't do anything to harm us” he said.
“I know. But Appa, she came to visit me a few minutes ago and she was livid with anger” she said trying her best to not cry thinking about the incident where she slapped her. “She tried to harm me and the babies but my friends saved me” she said.
“What!” That vile woman!” Inha’s father was seething with anger.
“That's why I want you to be safe Appa” she said. “I am planning to file a restraining order against her. We have evidence of her hitting me from the CCTV cameras”
“Okay, you do that. That'll keep you safe. And once I divorce her we won't have anything to do with her anymore.” He said.
“I know. But what about Suya?” Inha said and she heard her father sigh.
“I sent her away to the USA to study. It's a long story. I'll tell you when we meet. Are we still on for dinner this Sunday?” her father asked her
“Yes, I'll be back from my MT then. I also have some things to ask you about mom’s death”
“Sure. You must be confused after seeing the press conference. Also are you going to a MT this week? Have fun my daughter. How is Jeon Seobang by the way?”
“He's fine. He's gone to Japan for his tour.”
“I see. I hope you have someone staying with you then?”
“Ne, Appa. Two of the members’ wives are with me in the penthouse. So don't worry, I have company”
“Okay sweetheart. Stay safe then. I have to go now. I'll see you on Sunday”
“Sure Appa. Take care and good night” with that Inha finished her phone call and then a notification popped up:
“I landed safely, Jagiya. It's late now so I'll talk tomorrow”. Inha thanked the Gods for Wonwoo's safe journey and typed a quick reply. Then she retired for the night.
