The Most Loving Marriage In History: Master Manoban's Pampered Wife

Chapter 200: Scandal Crisis (2)

On the other end, after Jennie left, Sun Yeong had quickly called Chaerin and the rest, telling them to suppress the news.

However, did she even realize what a huge media house like Time magazine was?

As long as it was worthy news, they would not let it go. Right after Jennie hung up, the people from the magazine begun working on it. They were so quick that one could not react soon enough!

When Sun Yeong arrived the orphanage, the reporters had already swarmed into the orphanage. They wanted to stop them, but it was too late.

At this moment, inside Kai's villa, Krystal was planning to make a loving dinner for Kai. However, just as she was washing her hands and getting ready to cut the ingredients, Chaerin suddenly called.

"Mother? What is it?" Krystal picked up the phone.

From the other end came Chaerin's panicked and anxious voice right away. "Krystal? Where are you right now?"

"I'm at Kai's place. What's wrong? Did something happen?" Krystal could obviously hear Chaerin's panic, so she instantly asked with puzzlement.

"Krystal, bad news! Something has happened! Your grandmother just went looking for Jennie that witch. Initially, she wanted to use the orphanage documents to trade with her, yet unexpectedly, not only did she not take it, but she even called Time magazine and some of the media, saying that it was your idea. Now, the media has already rushed straight to the orphanage. We wanted to stop them, but it was too late. What do we do?"

Chaerin was nervous with worry. At that moment, she was at home in the living room, pacing back and forth restlessly before she called Krystal in a moment of desperation.

In the meantime, Sun Yeong had gone to the office, afraid that something was going to change.

"What did you say? She called the media?" When she heard Chaerin, Krystal was immediately stunned and could not react right away. Her beautiful eyes flickered with disbelief.

"Yes, Krystal! Jennie this witch is evil! She knew that right now you are at your lowest, yet she still wanted to hit you below the belt! If she wasn't willing, she could've just said that she wasn't. Why did she have to hurt you further!? Do you see now? She's just that cruel! I heard from your grandmother that the company's already been holding off many calls from the media. Many of the reporters are waiting for you near the office, so you mustn't go to the office!"

Chaerin's voice through her gritted teeth sounded uneasy. "Also, I'm afraid Kai will be in trouble too. You two must be careful. I'm discussing with your grandmother on whether there's a way to manage this news. The orphanage is being clogged by the media. I'm afraid this matter can't be concealed. If that's the case, I'm afraid us Yueying would have to suffer another storm. Krystal, I'm panicking right now. I don't know what to do! It's all Jennie's fault! All her fault!"

Krystal naturally knew the reason Chaerin was worried. Apart from all the reasons she had mentioned, there was also her father, Hyunbin's side, and her grandfather's side. If they found out about this, that would truly be disastrous!

Jennie had actually called the media!

This outcome was far beyond her expectations. At first, she thought that even if it was useless, she would just be angry and talk tough, yet this time...

Krystal felt her entire body tense up and her delicate face looked miserable. Her beautiful eyes flickered with a downcast light as the hand that gripped onto the phone trembled lightly, Quite a while after that, she answered, "I got it, Mother! Don't worry first. Don't panic. We'll see the situation with Grandmother and the media's end. Let's do that first. I'll be home soon."

Then, she hung up because she heard the footsteps from outside. Kai should be coming downstairs.

Taking this document from Kai was initially the engagement gift that she had asked for from him. Back then, she had unintentionally found out that Jennie seemed to have special feelings for this orphanage, so...

Kai did not know about this. If he found out that she had taken this document to make Jennie hand the document for Yueying over, what should she do?

When she thought about this, Krystal's eyes instantly dimmed. She hesitated for a moment, then turned around to walk out of the kitchen. She wanted to discuss it with Kai, yet just as she walked out of the kitchen, she saw that he was already downstairs. As he walked towards the sofa, his phone in his hand was ringing.

Krystal realized something, so she quickly rushed over and wanted to stop him from answering the call. However, Kai was pretty swift, and with a slide of his thumb, the call was through.

It was from his personal secretary.

Once the call got through, Secretary Wang's strained voice immediately came through. "CEO Han, we have a problem!"

"What happened?" Kai slowly sat down on the sofa and poured himself a glass of water as he asked.

...

Krystal watched as Kai quietly listened to the person on the other end of the phone. His handsome face sank bit by bit. Finally, his handsome brows turned into a knot and he unknowingly clenched the glass tightly in his hand as his dark eyes flickered with an uncertain light.

A century passed before Kai finally hung up on the call. His entire being was also covered with a cold hostility that made her feel very uneasy. She walked over with light footsteps, slowly going over, and calling out softly, "Kai..."

When he heard Krystal's voice, Kai then took a look at the phone that he already hung up. Then, he turned his head unhurriedly before fixing his gaze on Krystal. There was a mix of emotions that could not be concealed in his eyes. "Krystal, where's the engagement gift that you made me give you?"

Indeed!

Krystal was stumped. She subconsciously halted in her steps as her charming face instantly paled. There were gloominess and sadness that could not be hidden in her eyes while she bit onto her plump lips out of habit and she met Kai's deep eyes. After a long while, she lamented, "Don't you already know? I'm sorry, Kai! I saw that Grandmother and Mother kept fretting over this issue, so I wanted to help them out a little. Initially, I thought that document could be used to compensate Sister, yet I didn't expect that she'd immediately call the media without caring about family's sake..."

"How did you know if the document was important to Jennie or not? That it could even be used as something to compensate her?" Kai frowned, his gaze locked onto Krystal's pale little face.

"I..."

Krystal's expression changed. Unexpectedly, she did not know how to answer, so she bit onto her plump lips until they almost cracked. "Kai... I'm sorry... I didn't know that Sister would do that. Now, even the media knows... Kai, I really didn't do it on purpose. I... I just wanted to find the best way to resolve the issue. I never would've thought that it would turn out like this, Kai..."
