"I heard your stepmother told you about her relationship with Chairman Jun.

" Peter Jung said to Nicole and the latter nodded.

"They are planning to get married.

" She said. She was still feeling displeased about the news and it was quite evident in her voice.

"She should have thought of you too. She is your stepmother but she is older than you by only 15 years. Carson Jun is a year younger than her. How can she plan to make him your stepfather?

" Peter Jung said, looking at her as if he truly worried about her.

"You don't have to worry anymore, Chairwoman. If our plan succeeds, then the two lovers will never have the chance to marry. We can say that they work together in everything. It's the truth anyway.

" Colin Park promptly added.

Nicole recalled how much Carson Jun love her stepmother. He loved her to the point where he was willing to give up everything for her. He was even willing to go to prison for her! As someone who knew the power of true love, she wished for him to be happy with her stepmother but... it wasn't simple. Besides, everything was more complicated now than ever before!

"That's great,

" She finally said.

"Then I'll count on you two.

" She added, glancing at both men.

"You can trust us.

" Peter Jung replied to her with a nod.

"As soon as you're ready, Director Park will call the reporter and you will meet the reporter together. Then everything will be over once you admit to the media and case a file. I will make sure that she won't force her way out of this.

"

"Alright. I will try to get ready before two weeks.

" Nicole responded. Two weeks would be enough to ensure the downfall of these two men!

"I think I should leave first. I have another meeting to attend.

" She said, glancing at her wristwatch.

"Go on. It won't be easy running a corporation like Yang Group.

" Peter Jung uttered and Nicole only forced a smile in response.

After the Chairwoman left, the two men still remained in the private room and they continue their talks.

"Will we be able to trust her?

" Colin Park asked the Prime Minister.

Peter Jung thought for a while before he said,

"Yes. It's not just her anymore. Now that she has someone she wishes to protect, she will be desperate to break free than ever.

"

"You mean that actor?

"

"She cared about him a lot and as long as Garcia Han controlled her, she knew that she won't be able to have the life she wanted.

" Peter Jung stated.

"Then I think we should be wary of the actor too. He is very popular and what if he uses his fame to target us? He won't sit still when we go after the Chairwoman.

" Colin Park said, seriously.

Peter Jung simply smiled.

"Don't you know that such fame could be destroyed by a single news? I can expose that actor anytime.

"

"You already have something against him?

" Colin Park raised a brow. When did the Prime Minister work so fast?!

"He used to work under Lester Yun. Do you know what that means?

" A sinister smile appeared on Peter Jung's face.

Colin Park gave a quick thought and then gasped.

"He is a former gangster?!

"

Peter Jung nodded and Colin Park laughed.

"If this news gets out, it will be huge!

" He exclaimed.

"We can end his career any minute. Don't worry too much about him but... I heard that he is very skilled. Lester Yun always wanted him back. I wonder how great it would be to have him work for me.

" Peter Jung said when Aston's face crossed his mind.

"You always have what you wanted, sir. Are you not confident this time? You can just use his weakness against him like always.

" Colin Park suggested with a malicious smile.

Peter Jung remained quiet, tapping his fingers on the table.

"He is quite extraordinary. Lester Yun said that it's useless to threaten him with his life or anything about himself.

"

"Didn't Lester Yun tell you about his weakness?

"

"No. I wasn't interested before, so I don't ask him. But now, we know that his biggest weakness is Nicole Yang, don't we?

" Peter Jung said and a smile escaped his lips.

"But we can't use the Chairwoman against him for now. We need her.

" Colin Park sighed. If the Prime Minister took a liking to him, he knew right away that the actor will be very special! What a shame!

"Patience is a virtue, Director Park. After waiting for twenty years, it won't be hard to wait for another month or two. I think it will be worth it.

"

Colin Park chuckled.

"You're right, sir. After taking care of Garcia Han and Carson Jun, we can fake the Chairwoman's death and hide her somewhere. I bet Aston Kang will be willing to work for you in exchange for keeping her alive. You have used that method before and it worked pretty well.

"

Peter Jung thought of something until he let out a sigh.

"Shara is still in Leon's hands. I don't have anyone capable enough to take her out from the base. Lester Yun is also handed to the special team created by the government.

"

Colin Park was both shocked and disappointed at the news.

"I think you shouldn't just watch your son anymore. What if he keeps making things difficult for us? He is not even blood-related to you. So, why won't we just end him too? It will be -

"

Colin Park fell silent when he noticed the Prime Minister darting his eyes to him. He saw rage in his eyes!

"Say that again and you will be the one to suffer the exact fate that you suggest.

" The Prime Minister's voice was cold and his gaze merciless.

"Please forgive me.

" Colin Park quickly apologized with his head lowered.

"No matter what, Leon is my son. He is my only child and the heir to all my belongings. I have no plan to harm him.

" Peter Jung firmly said.

"If you do anything in my back, I will make sure that you pay for it. Don't ever touch my son.

" He warned the Director sternly.

"I understand.

" Colin Park promptly responded. He couldn't understand both Garcia Han and the Prime Minister. Why were they so obsessed with Nicole and Leon who were not even their biological children? It was nonsense to him. What's more, both the children repeatedly defied them and hampered their plan! Why did they put themselves through such a headache?!

"I will think of a way to bring out Shara. She is capable and I can't afford to lose her.

" Peter Jung said. Entering the base of the Blackhood was not an easy feat and it made him felt lost. What would he do?

* * *

The moment Nicole entered her office, she instantly started thinking of what to do. She must first dig into the relationship between the two men. Then she called Jerome and told him to investigate the two men. She must know their past as much as possible.

Was Colin Park working with Peter Jung the whole time? She knew it was unlikely but it wasn't impossible. She can't afford to be careless now. Who knows what plan they had for her?!

When Shara crossed her mind, she had a feeling that Shara might be able to help her. After all, she will surely know Peter Jung well than she did. Then she called Leon who picked up on the second ring.

"Leon, are you busy? Do you have some time?

"

Leon who was sitting in his studio in the museum was quite flustered by Nicole's question. Did she get herself in trouble again?

"What is it, Nicole?

" He asked and stood up.

"I wonder if I could talk to Shara. Aston told me that she is locked up somewhere but I don't know the details. I don't ask to meet her but... can I at least talk with her through the phone?

"

When Nicole mentioned Shara, Leon wondered if his father was up to something again.

"Is it about my father?

" He asked. His father truly tired him out!

Nicole hesitated for a few seconds before she finally said,

"Yes. It's important.

"

"Did he create trouble for you?

" Leon asked. His father won't mend his ways. What would he do?!

"It's a long story. I will tell you later. I need to talk with Shara first.

"

"Alright. I plan to see her in the evening. I will call you when I'm with her.

" Leon finally said.

"Thanks, Leon. I will wait for your call.

" Nicole said and ended the call.

Putting down her phone, Garcia Han instantly crossed her mind. Should she go and see her? Then what about Carson Jun? She had so much to worry about and she felt like going crazy!

However, when Aston crossed her mind, she felt more anxious. What if those two men included him in secret too?! Peter Jung was associated with Lester Yun and that means... there's a high possibility that he knew Aston's past!

Thinking of every possibility, Nicole clenched her fist. She won't allow them to get their way!
