The loud commotion attracted the others back to the kitchen. When they returned, they were shocked by what greeted them. They couldn't immediately make sense of the situation because they were alarmed by the howling Hwi on the floor.
Fortunately, Little Jun wasn't with them. Clover stayed with him while Jae and the others checked what the hell was happening in the kitchen. The toddler would surely become upset if he saw his father in such a disturbing condition.
"What happened?! Jae cried dramatically. "Why is elder brother boss screaming like a pig being slaughtered?! Sir boss, did you break his spitting cobra?! Oh no! What if it can't make babies anymore?! Or worse, it might never stand up again! Poor Big SisYeon!"
He gasped in horror at the possibility. He even clutched his chest and paled, as if it was the worst tragedy that could ever happen in Hoyeon's life.
"Shut up, Jae!" Yeon snapped. She had no time for his dramatics at the moment.
Hwi's howls gradually became groans. Lisa had covered him with ugly injuries. With his torn clothes, he looked pitiful.
Mei and the other household staff alternately looked at the two couples. The Donghwi-Hoyeon couple looked miserable on the floor, while the Lisa-Jennie couple looked frightening with their combined aura of cold danger.
"Yeon, bring that stupid idiot to the hospital. Even I'm not sure if the orange dealt permanent damage to his peroneal nerve." Her way of phrasing her words cast the blame entirely on the orange, as if it launched by itself to hurt Hwi. "Leave Little Jun here with us. We'll take care of him. Go and babysit that delusional fool who clearly lost the majority of his brain cells tonight due to his sudden stupidity. Maybe you can squeeze some sense back into his decomposing brain."
Everyone was already used to Jennie's occasional sharp tongue, but they still couldn't help but wince at her cutting words towards her own brother. It was only Lisa and Jae who didn't think that her words were too much.
Lisa loved her more than life itself. He would always side with her, even if she were to burn Hwi alive or anyone else for that matter. He would even give her an endless supply of fuel and a diamond-encrusted lighter to do the job.
As for Jae, he was extremely loyal to Jennie. If Jennie declared that she hated Hwi or frogs, he would treat Hwi and all the frogs in the world as if they were his mortal enemies as well.
"Ruby, I'm so sorry about what Hwi said. I'm sure he didn't mean any of it," Yeon apologized for her fiancé. Her eyes implored Jennie for forgiveness.
Jennie's eyes softened at her friend.
"Why are you saying sorry to her?! I meant everything I said!" Hwi roared at Yeon. "Do you really believe that she has changed for the better? Open your eyes! She has never changed! Mark my words. She'll become exactly like her mother, that slut!"
He had truly lost control of himself. There were only rage and resentment against Jennie and Lisa in his heart at the moment.
"You son of a bi—" Lisa was about to attack him again but Jennie stopped him.
"Hon, don't dirty your hands anymore on scum like him. He's not worth your time or energy." Then she instructed the housekeeper. "Mei, call the driver and have him drive Yeon and that stupid idiot to the hospital."
"Right away, Young Miss." Mei left to do her bidding.
Hwi threw his head back and gave an ugly, mocking laughter. "Hospital? Still pretending to be a selfless and magnanimous person? Huh, little sister?"
"I never claimed to be selfless or magnanimous," Jennie said in a cold voice. "I just don't want scum like you dirtying my floor longer than necessary. I'm sending you to the hospital because it's either that or have you thrown to the dumpster where you rightfully belong. Besides, it's better to send you to the hospital so Father won't be able to blame me for your injuries which, by the way, you totally deserve.
