"What do you mean you don't know? Do you think I pay you for nothing? Do your fucking job and stop whining! Don't even bother to show your face in front of me without giving me what I want!" Chanyeol yelled at his phone, utterly frustrated. He had gone home the moment he read the article, prior to Minseok's suggestion. He had called his employee about the article regarding the lawsuit and asked to find out who was behind it.
Minseok, on the other hand, was unable to find out who the culprit was, primarily because the CEO asked for it within a short amount of time, hence the CEO's outburst. Needless to say, Chanyeol was disappointed at the latter since it was the very first time that Minseok was unable to complete his task, though one couldn't really blame the other. Chanyeol knew that, of course. It was as if he was channeling his anger on Minseok instead -- not that Minseok minded.
He had already tasted his wrath before -- just not like now.
"Yes, sir. I'll do it right away," Minseok said from the other line.
"You better be," Chanyeol finalized, ending the call. He growled lowly under his breath and threw stacks of papers from his desk located inside his house's private office from his frustration. He had actually wanted to thrash his whole office from rage, but prevented himself from doing so. He thought that thrashing it would be a waste of time, so he immediately thought otherwise and headed towards his room, plopping himself on his bed and sighing.
He couldn't believe that a serious of mishaps had happened to him within a week.
First of all, he fired the secretary that he deemed to be the best at the job because of an issue that he himself knew had no justification that the secretary really did the deed. Second of all, the article that had emerged about his previous relationship with Shin Eunbyul – a world renowned actress, heiress and Chanyeol's ex-girlfriend -- was also released, which might trigger the woman's attention.
It had surprised Chanyeol that Shin Eunbyul hadn't even bothered to call him all week, seeing as how she would've read that article by now, especially since she was an actress after all.
Maybe she didn't care.
Third of all, another article was released, claiming that he had been physically abusing his employees – when he had never even laid a hand even once. Park Chanyeol couldn't help but swarm into a sea of problems, rethinking which triggered this to start and that.
He realized how everything was ultimately his fault, but he didn't know how to solve them on the other hand.
'Why me?' He bitterly thought.
He had been asking himself the same question for a long time now, even before he changed. From the billions of people in the whole world, he couldn't help but wonder why those things had happened to his. He felt like life was so unfair. Then again, he wasn't the only person thinking that. The thought of other people suffering had crossed his mind almost immediately, and he cursed himself from even considering his life the worst.
For a second then, he felt determined, as if he was ready to take the fight against whomever had declared war to him, but his hope had crashed almost immediately as he thought of no solution. His phone beeped, indicating a mail. He took it out from his pocket and read through the message, frowning.
Apparently, Minseok sent him a file through a mail, with information regarding the culprit and whatnot. Zhang Yixing had been the "mastermind" of the latest articles; attached to the mail were pictures of Zhang Yixing talking to a couple of interviewers this morning, supposedly leaking the rumors according to Minseok.
Chanyeol frowned, as things just didn't add up.
What was Wu Yifan's relation with the issue then?
