"Hmm… so we are doing the filming while exacting the revenge?"
"Yup, if we go missing a few hours from the filming site it would be alright. Besides Chad and Seeto all the other members of the production and filming crew are our subordinates, so even if we go missing a few hours they can still pretend to be our witnesses to claim that we are still at the set throughout the time and no one could be wiser [1]."
"Oh!" Reen could only say
The truth was, Wisteria and Hue's subordinates are famous in their own fields like the couple despite their involvement in the underground industry.
To not link or relate the interactions between parties some of these subordinates would pretend not to know each other, sometimes doing small talks or simply ignore each other.
By doing this, they will never link each other's involvement except when one thoroughly conducts an investigation about them.
If they do plan to do an investigation they should consider the consequences of his/her action if she/he plans to reveal the results of their investigations thus receiving the organization's wrath.
These people with their level of influence and power can reign supreme in the underground industry even without being in the same group as Wisteria's faction. However they chose to join Wisteria's faction in the end.
These influential individuals have their own men and women under them which they can mobilize at any time even if their subordinates are not affiliated with their boss's organization.
When brawls or clan fights occurs they can mobilize their own men to fight for them as well as adding aide to the core members and the organization as a whole.
Similar secret identities were not uncommon within this underground society, the only difference was that the people under Wisteria's faction are more influential and vast in number as compared to the others.
When they had polish their plans until the last point a few days had already passed, it was at this time too that Reen received some unexpected news.
"Reen, Seth is…" Wisteria hesitated mentioning this man, Hue silently stayed beside her
"Hmm? Reen asked distractedly as her thoughts was still full of the ending song they were planning to use. She only had 2 songs for now and needed one more just in case it's needed.
Noticing Wisteria did not continue what she was saying, she looked up and saw a fretting and mix emotions Wisteria and stoic Hue beside her.
"Mom? Dad? What's wrong? You can just tell me straight..." She asked, fully giving her attention on them now.
"Seth… Seth… has kidney cancer and it seems he doesn't have that long to live." She said the last part while gritting her teeth.
She actually did not want to tell Reen about this but with the continual pestering of Lilith and Seth's relatives and her worry for Reen led her to decide to tell her in the end.
She was worrying about Reen that even if she severed her connections to these people and doesn't really have any favorable feelings towards Seth and his family, society may not think this was appropriate and may scorn her for it despite the modernization of the world.
It was not that the couple wanted to save face [2] but rather when they finally reveal to the world who Crimson really is it will highly affect her image in stardom.
[1] This means that someone has failed to understand a certain information or is not fully aware of what happened.
[2] This means to retain respect or avoid humiliation.
