Sun Yeong's face sank as her eyes held mixed emotions and disbelief. She thought about it for a while before answering, "It should be him. Earlier, when I called Jennie, he answered the phone halfway!"
"He answered the phone?"
Chaerin very quickly caught onto something. She immediately lifted her wrist to take a look at the time. It was close to midnight, which meant...
"Jennie is with Master Manoban?" he could not help but blurt out as she stared at Sun Yeong with wide eyes.
Sun Yeong's aged face started to look uncertain. Although she did not answer, the answer seemed obvious!
"Go ask around in the next few days. I keep feeling that things aren't that simple. Earlier, your father even warned me not to mess with Jennie, but with that personality of his, when has he ever not protected Jennie? Huh, he even said that we can save trouble for ourselves? Just with tonight's incident, if it were not for her provocation, things wouldn't have turned out like this."
As Chaerin listened, she frowned and thought about it for a while. Then, she nodded with a heavy expression. "Okay, I'll go ask around. Don't worry, Mother. I'll talk to Father. About Krystal, I..."
"Now that things have come to this point, sigh, I think it's best if we see how Krystal is first. Most importantly, we have to consider the Han family..."
Sun Yeong now felt a huge headache too, especially with the way Elder Han had furiously rushed to leave earlier and the way Kai left without turning back. Even she could not bear the humiliation, what more...
"If it really is true, then Krystal has really gone overboard. Even your father was... If Hyunbin finds out about this, he'll be angry again. You must know that once this matter is dug out again, even he's implicated. Krystal's too rash with her actions..."
Sun Yeong frowned and glared at Chaerin who was stunned. She quickly said with a pale expression, "Mother, Krystal was only provoked by the recent incidents. Now that she's like this, I hope..."
"Enough, the key problem isn't with me. You'd better think about how to keep the Han family calm. Yueying is finally stable again, so I hope that there wouldn't be another surge of trouble after this."
Chaerin was also worn out, so she could only console her, "Yes, Mother, I understand. I'll think of a way. Yueying will be fine. Let's take a look at how Krystal is first."
...
A while after, the door to the emergency ward finally opened and Krystal was wheeled out from inside.
"How is it, Doctor? My daughter, how is she?"
"How's Krystal? Doctor?"
Chaerin and Huang Ziyao went up together.
The doctor pushed his mask down and looked at Krystal who was still unconscious on the sick bed. He responded with a heavy tone, "She's a little weak. Her fetus isn't very stable. Trigger her less and take care of her well. Make sure she has a balanced diet and keep her happy."
"Thank you, Doctor. We will. Thank you!"
"I'll prescribe some meds to stabilize the pregnancy. Later, the nurse will explain what needs to be taken note of. The patient needs to rest right now and she's not very emotionally stable, so it's best if she's not disturbed now. Just leave one person to watch her."
Soon, the entourage consisting of the doctor and the nurses sent Krystal to her ward while the few of them followed them.
As she watched Krystal who slept soundly on the sick bed, Chaerin breathed a sigh of relief. She turned to Huang Ziyao beside her and said, "Thankfully, it's alright. Ziyao, you're worn out from the day. Go home first. I can watch her. And, Mother, you should go home too. You've just recovered. It's won't do you any good to be tired out. It's alright with just me here!"
Huang Ziyao glanced at Krystal on the sick bed, then nodded after thinking about it. "Okay then, I'll go home first. I'll explain what happened here to the elder. As for..."
"Ziyao, I'll be sure to talk to Krystal. No matter what, her heart is with Kai. If it weren't for... Sigh, now that they're already married and with a child, what else can they do? I hope that your family can..."
When she heard Chaerin's words, Huang Ziyao suppressed the heaviness in her heart with much effort. She responded helplessly, "I got it. I'll do my best. I'll leave things here to you then."
Then, she turned to leave.
Apart from Krystal on the sick bed, only Chaerin and Sun Yeong remained in the ward.
When she saw Huang Ziyao turn to leave with an odd expression, Chaerin's heart sank. She quickly turned to look at Sun Yeong, who looked pensive, and asked a little anxiously, "Mother, what should we do? I'm afraid that on the Han family's end..."
"What are you worried about? No matter what, Krystal still has Kai's child right now and they just got married!"
Sun Yeong was rather calm now, her sharp eyes twinkling. Then, she continued, "Regardless, I still believe that Kai and Krystal still have feelings for each other. Otherwise, Kai wouldn't have signed the papers so quickly. We'll wait and see."
"Mmm, we can only do that now! Alright, Mother, go home first. It's already very late. Just leave things here to me. Right, about tonight, can we not tell Hyunbin?" Chaerin looked worriedly at Sun Yeong.
"Mmm, I know what to do. Quickly settle the thing I told you to do," Sun Yeong responded and left the ward.
When the door shut, Chaerin relaxed a little. She took a deep breath and turned to look at Krystal who lay on the sick bed. Upon seeing that she slept rather soundly, her tensed heart then eased.
She thought to herself that the fate of her and her daughter seemed to be extraordinarily similar. Many years ago, she had been deeply in love with Hyunbin. Because of him, she had also been in so much pain that she wanted to die. To get Hyunbin, she did not spare using all sorts of tricks, forcing Ye Jin to let go.
However, many years later, her daughter fancied Ye Jin's daughter's fiancè, and she also did not spare using tricks to win Kai's heart.
In fact, now Kai and Krystal were already married. Furthermore, Krystal was carrying Kai's child too.
When she thought about this, Chaerin could not suppress the smugness in her.
Ye Jin, oh Ye Jin! So what if I couldn't win Hyunbin's heart? The person who can stand honorably by his side and be the Mayor's wife is me. In fact, didn't your daughter completely lose to my daughter?
Now, no matter what, Krystal was the Han family's young lady of the house. This was a fact set in stone. Even if all the scandals caused a larger ruckus, as long as her child could be healthily born, then all of those things would be irrelevant!
This child had come at the perfect time!
