Miyeon's thought made her shudder, and she started feeling bitter.

'I came back, but everything has changed...'

She could not protect the things she held dear, and she realized she was losing more and more...

She had to hold onto something.

"I heard Master Kim was going to send some samples to Glory World. He should be here for the documents," Assistant Xiao Dong voiced out her thoughts.

"Is Fuhua very close to Glory World?" Miyeon asked with a frown.

"They have plans to collaborate. CEO Son's assistant had been visiting Glory World frequently because of the South River project. CEO Kim tried to approach CEO Son before, but CEO Son is known to be difficult to deal with, so CEO Kim could not get anything from him. Vice CEO Yue got humiliated there and he was very unhappy with CEO Son."

Yue Hai went to talk with Yong Gun representing Kim Joon. There was no way Yong Gun would entertain him knowing that he was from the Yue family!

Ever since then, Yue Hai was dissatisfied with Yong Gun.

"Fuhua is the leader of the industry. We can't clash with them straight on. I heard Uncle Kim has been troubled by the South River project."

"Yes, CEO Wang is trying to get this project as well. It'll make a huge impact in the next few years. This project is influential enough to gather the support of many people during the stakeholders' meeting. Glory World is now siding with CEO Wang. CEO Kim will need to make other plans."

Miyeon frowned. "Wang Qin doesn't have much power in her hands, thanks to Uncle Kim getting people onto his side in secret over the years. I doubt Wang Qin can do much if a conflict actually happens. However, with Glory World... Well, if it happened, I'll ask my father to help Uncle Kim."

She grabbed her phone and called Kim Joon who picked up very quickly.

"Miyeon? Suddenly thought of an old man like me?" Kim Joon's gentle voice came through. It was a huge contrast compared to his cold attitude towards Jisoo.

Miyeon smiled gently as well. "Uncle Kim, you're still young and charming. How are you already old?"

Kim Joon laughed. "Miyeon, you really know what I want to hear. So, what happened? I'm sure you have something on your mind if you're calling me at this time."

"Can't I just call you without anything in particular, Uncle Kim? I was near the mall and was thinking about getting you something. I didn't expect to see Jisoo's car. He drove very quickly and I got my driver to follow him. I saw him going into Glory World Corporation, probably for work. I've been waiting for him for a while, but he's not out yet. I'm still thinking if I should continue waiting for him. It's a weekend and I think it'd be nice to have dinner together."

"Jisoo went to Glory World?" Kim Joon spoke in a grim tone, confusing Miyeon. "Oh, by the way, I also happened to see Fuhua's Yong Gun go inside... so, I just wanted to remind you to be careful, Uncle Kim."

"That traitor!"

Kim Joon's voice turned cold. "Just leave him be. Let him do whatever he wants. Come to my place tonight for dinner. That's it for now!"

Without waiting for Miyeon's reply, Kim Joon hung up on the call quickly, and he instantly gave Yue Hai a call.

...

Miyeon put her phone away as a cold light flashed in her eyes. She glanced at the empty entrance in front for a while before saying, "Let's go back."

"Yes, Ms. Cho!" The chauffeur started the car after a brief reply.

Miyeon took a deep breath as the car moved forward. She covered her face for some time. Then, she took out the necklace under her clothes. It was a pink heart-shaped diamond necklace. She then applied some force on the pink diamond and it opened.

Inside the jewel, there was a tiny photo inside.

It was a photo of Miyeon with a skinny little girl.

She was wearing a long, red dress in the photo. There was a similarly beautiful little girl in her arms, but the little girl looked skinny. Her hair was braided and there was a butterfly hair clip on her head while she wore a pink dress.

Miyeon stroked the little girl's face and she started to tear up. She gripped the necklace tightly and held it against her chest. She closed her eyes and mumbled, "Weiwei, Mother misses you... Mother will make the people who hurt you pay, so you have to give your mother courage."

The sky turned dark when Jennie woke up, and Yong Gun had already gone back.

The original plan was to have dinner with Yong Gun, but Yong Gun did not want Lisa to wake her up, so in the end, both Lan Zilang and he left.

The room was dark when Jennie got out of bed. She quickly switched on the lights and looked outside the window. City Z's nightlife had already begun.

She washed up before heading out of the room. There was no one in the office, but the lights were left switched on.

Jennie frowned as she tried to find that familiar figure. While there was no one at all, his coat was draped on the chair, and there were also two phones left on the table. The documents were left open as well...

Where did they go?

Jennie scratched her head as she walked toward the table and sat down on the chair.

She saw his powerful signature strokes on the paper. Grabbing the pen left on the table as well as a piece of paper, she then started writing.

Jennie.

After a moment of hesitation, she added another word before her name — Manoban...
