News spread through the media like wildfire. In just one night, the news about Chaerin was broadcasted throughout the city.

Some of the old stakeholders who were on Krystal's side could not take it anymore. In just a few days, Yueying was on the brink of bankruptcy.

None of the people from the Yue family showed up ever since Chaerin's scandal was exposed. The paparazzi camped around the Yue family while Chaerin hid inside Krystal and Kai's villa. Krystal still did not want to give up on Yueying and was trying to do whatever she could to salvage it.

Compared to the storm outside, things were peaceful in the Maple Residence.

After two busy weeks, they were finally done with all the work at the office and could enjoy a day of decent rest.

With their wedding getting near, the two of them started preparations as well.

Early in the morning, inside the study room of Maple Residence of the second floor, Lisa woke up early while Jennie was still asleep.

"Master, things are almost done. Chenye Movies and Televisions is on track now and Vice President Liu came back last night. Also, I visited the hospital once since Sun Yeong had a stroke. It happened the night we leaked the news. Chaerin had a fierce argument with her and she fell unconscious after that. After an operation, she can't control her limbs well now, and couldn't even speak properly. Chaerin is hiding from the media and no one has seen her yet while Krystal is still going around trying to save Yueying. I bet she's trying to get the Han Corporation involved," Haruto reported to Lisa who was standing beside the window.

The morning breeze lifted the curtain beside Lisa and the whole room was quiet as Haruto's voice left an echo, but Lisa had not said anything.

After some hesitation, Haruto continued, "Master, we've cleaned up West Park. We followed your instructions and moved everything belonging to Sun Yeong and the others out. We didn't touch anything else. We've also changed a new lock and gave Mayor Kim one of the key cards. The rest are here with the document from Lawyer Wang." He then handed a folder over.

Lisa then turned his head and glanced at the folder before pointing at the table behind him.

Haruto nodded and put the folder onto the table.

"Is there anything happening with Yueying now?" Lisa sat down on the sofa casually and started making tea. Then, he signaled Haruto to sit as well.

"Not yet. We're keeping an eye on the Yue family and Krystal. I'll report to you if they do anything." Haruto sat down as Lisa handed him a cup of tea. "These are the Pu Er your Missus brought back from City B last time. Have a taste. Take some back if you like it. I remember that your parents are very fond of tea."

"Thank you, Master!" Haruto gave Lisa a grateful glance as the latter closed his eyes. "Be careful about this. It'll be tougher on you since Ryujin isn't around, but you can ask for help from Ah Bao and the others. Your Missus and I will be heading over on the 27th this month. I'll leave things here to you and you can come to our wedding after that."

"Yes, don't worry, Master!" Haruto replied, "By the way Master, Sun Yeong... Mayor Kim visited her yesterday. Chaerin... Mayor Kim hired a long-term caretaker for her. She might be transferred to a rehabilitative center after her condition has stabilized. Krystal and Chaerin were really cruel. In this situation..."

He then sighed as he remembered when he saw Sun Yeong—

How pitiful and sad!

It was karma. She was now conscious but could not move or take care of herself. It must be really tough for her.

"Also, Krystal went to look for Kai several times, but he didn't meet her. He's probably avoiding her. Yueying can't hold on any longer and the banks are urging for payments already. If they can't pay up, they can only declare bankruptcy and it's not a small amount!"

Lisa sipped some tea as he put on an indifferent smile. "Kai... I didn't know he was such a person..."

Naturally, Haruto understood what he meant. No matter what, they were still married and Kai's child was still inside Krystal, yet he just ignored all of these. A man like this...

"Master, next up...?" Haruto asked for further instructions.

"Just keep a close eye on them. The South River project is going to be launched soon and Vice President Zhang Lan is focusing on it. You should help out a little."

"Yes, Master! I'll head back now. I think Missus is awake. Just now..."

Before Haruto could finish his sentence, the half-closed door was pushed open and Jennie poked her head inside as she glanced around and saw the two of them on the sofa.

"Assistant Li? I heard someone talking from outside. You're early!" Jennie brushed her messy hair as she spoke.

Haruto stood up and smiled. "Morning, Missus! I'm just here to deliver some documents to Master. I'm heading back now."

"You're going back now? You can have breakfast with us first. Chairman Manoban just finished cooking breakfast." Jennie was pretty easygoing and would try to make them stay for meals whenever they came over. Needless to say, Haruto and the others were grateful for her gesture.

Haruto declined politely with a smile and he left the two of them alone.

...

Jennie lifted the curtains as she watched Haruto leave slowly. She voiced out her doubts to the man drinking his tea casually on the sofa, "Why is Assistant Li here so early in the morning? It's the weekend, isn't it?"

"He's here to deliver something. The folder on the table contains the documents from Lawyer Wang as well as the new keycards to West Park. Keep them," Lisa replied.

Jennie paused for a moment. She went toward the table after a while and opened the folder. As she looked through the contents, he started talking again, "West Park has been cleared now. Haruto left Father a keycard. You can think about what you want to do with it later on."
