Krystal was shaken up inside, yet she still put up a gentle front. "This child came upon us quite suddenly. I'm overjoyed about it, but Kai said he's been pretty busy with Starlight lately and rarely comes back home..."
Busy?
Han Zixuan was a little taken aback.
Because of Jennie's return, Starlight's artistes had been a little pressured recently, but compared to their peak period, there was nothing big going on. As the largest shareholder of Starlight, Kai did not need to involve himself with the small stuff, so just how busy was he to ignore his pregnant wife?
Actually, the only action Kai took in the company was...
Han Zixuan came up with a shocking hypothesis in her mind. She tried to act calm and asked, "Vice CEO Kim, did you know that CEO Kai wanted Jennie to come to Starlight?"
Jealousy flashed in Krystal's eyes, but she put up an innocuous act and looked shocked. Her eyes widened and she looked at Han Zixuan in disbelief.
"What? He... He wanted Jennie to come to Starlight?"
Krystal's reaction astounded Han Zixuan.
"Didn't you know? I felt that it was odd. Why would CEO Kai want Jennie to come back? She was chased out back then. Now that we recruit her back, isn't it telling everyone one that we don't have anyone talented in Starlight?"
Krystal's expression worsened and she looked down.
"Why wouldn't she let Kai go?"
"Vice CEO Kim! Jennie, she... She... She and CEO Kai..." Han Zixuan was floored once again.
Krystal realized she had said too much. She covered her mouth and looked at Han Zixuan. "Nothing, it's nothing. She just knew Kai a long time ago. While Jennie loved Kai, it was a very long time ago. They are unrelated now... There's nothing between them now..."
Krystal's voice was becoming smaller and smaller. The helplessness in her tone could make a person weep.
Han Zixuan never expected the truth to be like this!
Jennie and Kai had known each other from before?
And Jennie was fond of Kai?
This series of news was shocking for Han Zixuan. She remembered Kai's repeated attempts to invite Jennie over as she linked it to Krystal's pregnancy and Kai's excuse of not going back home...
"Jennie is too much! You're pregnant now! And she's seducing CEO Kai! Is she even human? Not only did she force you to retire, now she wants to break you and CEO Kai apart!" Han Zixuan seemed mad, but she was happy on the inside.
I thought you're something Jennie, yet you are just a shameless witch!
Han Zixuan took a glance at the gap in the sofa. The dim reflection passed through her eyes under the light. It was a camera that she had prepared beforehand. She wanted to dig some dirt from Krystal, and... she now had something unexpectedly big.
Krystal looked like she was on the verge of crying. She bit her lip and shook her head at Han Zixuan.
"No, it's not like that. Kai... He won't treat me like that. He's really busy, not... not because of Jennie..."
Krystal's voice started to waver, her expression telling everyone that she had been suffering from all these emotions all along.
Han Zixuan comforted Krystal as she plotted an evil plan.
Jennie, I don't believe that you will survive this time!
As for Krystal who was being comforted, she hid her wicked expression as she lowered her head.
