Chaerin was starting to boil with anger. Just how much had she given for the Kim family and for Hyunbin?

How could Ye-Jin compare to Chaerin?

What had she ever done for Hyunbin?

Just what did Ye-Jin do to deserve all of Hyunbin's love while her efforts were all ignored by him?

She could not accept this!

"Please don't get angry, Mother... Father... He..."

Krystal still had something else to say, but there was a noise coming from the door. They both looked over and saw Hyunbin storming in with Ah Hui right behind him.

"Father, you're back!" Krystal looked at Xu Hyunbin, but he just glanced at her and then went upstairs indifferently. He did not even bother to look at Chaerin.

Chaerin's expression darkened as she got even madder.

"Father, Sister beat Mother up. She overdid it! It's unfortunate that Aunt Son fell down the stairs, but that's not Mother's fault. She..."

"Shut up! Do you think you two are not responsible for Ye-Jin's injury at all? You still want to avoid the responsibility?" Hyunbin's bitter words interrupted her halfway.

Krystal shivered when she saw Hyunbin's sharp, cold eyes.

She rarely saw Hyunbin get angry at her. Even though Hyunbin and Chaerin were on bad terms, he had never gotten her involved. The changes in Hyunbin started ever since Kim Jiyang's birthday.

It was Jennie's first visit back home in several years, but Hyunbin had slapped Chaerin then.

After that, their conflict got worse and worse.

Krystal did not utter another word. Hyunbin's sharp look made her afraid, and she felt very uneasy.

"Madam, Mayor wants you to go to the study room," Ah Hui told Chaerin after Hyunbin went upstairs.

Chaerin arrived at his study room with a stormy expression. He was standing with his back facing her as he watched the servants work in the garden downstairs.

Only Chaerin and Hyunbin were in the room while Ah Hui stayed outside to guard the door.

"It's been twenty years. It's time to put an end to this thing between you, me, and Ye-Jin. Too many people have been involved. Do you have anything to say?" Hyunbin's cool voice reached her.

Chaerin stood by the table behind him, watching his back as she felt a pain in her chest. She snickered coldly. "What can I say? Ye-Jin deserves what happened to her! If it weren't for her, things wouldn't have ended up like this today! Why didn't she marry someone else after her divorce? She's just trying to cling onto you, Hyunbin. Ye-Jin is a wicked woman. Why won't you give up on her? How is she better than me? Why do you always ignore me for her?"

"No matter what, thirty years ago when I married her, I told her that I'd love her and her alone my whole life. If it weren't for Sun Yeong and you, we'd be living a happy life as a complete family."

Hyunbin's tone was calm. He turned around and stared at Chaerin with his cold eyes. "We've been tormenting each other for twenty years. Do you feel happy about it? You got your wish granted and came into the Kim family. Do you think this is the life you really wanted? You forcefully broke Ye-Jin and me apart and destroyed me. Do you really feel pleased about that?"

"Hyunbin, I..."

"Ye-Jin thought of you as her best friend. When she was with me, she would leave me without any hesitation if you gave her a call. She was genuine towards you, yet you treat her this way? This is your so-called friendship?

Hyunbin put on an icy cold smile. "You stepped all over her genuine friendship and worked with Sun Yeong to drug her husband. You ruined her happy family and thought you could replace her!"

"Hyunbin, listen to me. I didn't think too much about it back then because I loved you so much and I just wanted you... You wouldn't know my pain seeing her by your side every day! I fell in love with you first. I also told her that I loved you, yet she still butted in! How can I accept that? If she really thought of me as her best friend, she should've refused your proposal and given you to me!" Chaerin roared angrily and self-righteously.

"Given to you? Then, why don't you grant her wish? You're really scary. Your mind is toxic and Krystal is becoming like you. I feel nothing but disgust when I see you. How could I ever fall in love with a scary woman like you? I've never seen anyone as ugly and wicked as you. You're willing to sacrifice anyone to achieve your goals!" Hyunbin's sharp eyes and cutting words extinguished all of Chaerin's hope instantly!

He said she was disgusting?

She was ugly and wicked?

Unable to believe it, she forgot to cry and just stared at Hyunbin blankly. "What did you say? I'm disgusting? I'm ugly and wicked?"

Hyunbin did not reply. His eyes looked at her so angrily that she could not help but shiver.

"Didn't I do all of these for your sake? I don't care about my reputation. I'm not afraid if people call me a mistress. I brought Krystal up, and I told my father to ask my brother to look after you and even help your father. Who do you think I did all these for? Now, you're saying that I'm disgusting? The whole world can criticize me for anything, but you don't have the right to say so, Hyunbin!" Chaerin cried uncontrollably.

"I can do anything to love you, but I've never thought that I'd be so worthless to you! I tried to be obedient and thought of you as my everything. I kept this charade up for more than twenty years. I thought I'd somehow warm your heart and maybe get a little bit of comfort from you, but now you're saying that I'm disgusting?"

"I'm your everything? But you tried to suppress me and think about how to hurt Ye-Jin and Jennie? How could I possibly fall in love with someone as wicked as you? Do you think I'd love you just because you took Ye-Jin away from me?"
