Tae-Hoon blinked gulping again, unknowingly his eyes traveled to her baby bump.
His heart tightened at the thought of knowing the baby’s gender, he thought for some time and nodded his head. “Okay, let’s go.” Hani gave him a big smile in happiness. She never thought that one day she was going to be this happy about the baby.
…
The business event was very small, only a few of the closest businessmen were invited.
Dong-Hoon was stuck in the traffic and had not come yet.
First Yoo-Na was presenting something on the stage with Yoo-Jin on her side.
And now, it was Ji-Hoon’s turn as he smirked and went to the stage. “I know all of us have been gathered here to know about the future flow of the work but I have something more interesting to show you.” he clicked on the keypad of his laptop and something on the big screen got displayed immediately.
Almost everyone was shocked at this point.
...
Tae-Hoon and Hani were done with the test.
“It will take fourteen days for the results.” the laboratorian told them, Tae-Hoon thanked her and left taking Hani’s hand.
She blushed looking at her hand in his gentle grip as she walked slightly behind him.
He sent the driver back who brought Hani to the Hospital and now they were on their way back home in Tae-Hoon’s car. “I will go with you next time.” Tae-Hoon said as his eyes were still on the road.
“You will?” Hani asked not believing what she just heard, a small smile creeping onto her face.
“Yeah, just remind me in advance.” she nodded smiling at him.
On the other hand, Tae-Hoon just felt something different today. The feeling of knowing the gender of the baby made him really realize that he was going to become a father.
A real father.
He thought about how his father wanted all his sons to climb the ladder of success and reach the top.
He was even thinking that wheater someone like him was qualified for being a father or not.
…
As soon as the projector screen glowed everyone gasped with shock. Those faces who were clam only belonged to Ji-Hoon and Min-Hoon.
The screen showed some statements and percentages which were clearly pointing out how Parks have been making a fool out of Shims.
As Ji-Hoon kept changing the pages, the information related to fraud, manipulating accounting charts, credit rating, supply losses, and liabilities kept displaying.
Park family was looking devastated.
Yoo-Chun went towards the stage as Yoo-Jin ran somewhere to put out the cables of the projector. “What is wrong with you Shim Ji-Hoon. I never knew you were such an insensible person.” Yoo-Chun said roaring that his voice was audible to every single person present in the hall.
“Mr. Park, it was you who showed the insensibility to your and our work first. It is just a trailer of my plan. You will soon get a notice from the court. We will pass through this legally.” Ji-Hoon smirked but his smirk died as soon as a slap landed on his face loudly making all the people present in the hall flinch.
Yoo-Na stood there beside him, anger visible on her face. “How dare you talk like this to my father.” she was roaring like a tigress.
...
Dong-Hoon entered the hall late but as soon as he did, he saw all those people there standing instead of sitting on their chairs. Everyone was murmuring around making the place feel like a fish market.
He went ahead as his eyes widened hearing Yoo-Chun shouting at Ji-Hoon.
He saw the whole scenario of Ji-Hoon retorting back and Yoo-Na slapping him.
He ran towards the front and was going on the stage but Min-Hoon stopped him, grabbing his upper arm. “It’s something which was bound to happen, don’t interfere.” Dong-Hoon frustratingly looked at his father and then brother.
Min-Hoon left his arm knowing that Dong-Hoon will not act opposite to his words.
“I swear Shim Ji-Hoon, I will blast a bigger bomb on you.” Yoo-Na gulped looking away from his eyes, she seemed hurt.
“We will see that.” Ji-Hoon was acting cool as if he was not affected by the tight slap he just received but his skin was burning.
He got down from the stage and walked towards his father but before he could utter anything, Dong-Hoon grabbed him by his shoulders. “What is happening? I told you none of you were supposed to get hurt with this. I told you to think about this dating thing thoroughly. I told you.” Dong-Hoon was gritting his teeth, preventing himself to let out any swear word.
Ji-Hoon saw Parks leaving from the corner of his eyes. His gaze traveled to Yoo-Na who was trying to handle the situation among her family.
He sighed closing his eyes. “Big bro, I will tell you everything later. Now is not the right time. Let’s go home.” Dong-Hoon scoffed and pulled his hands away from Ji-Hoon and said, “Everything is not about business, at least you should think about other's emotions.” Dong-Hoon exhaled a deep breath looking at Ji-Hoon and then at Min-Hoon.
He left seeing the unchanged expression of his brother and father. “Dong-Hoon.” Jung-Nan said running behind him.
…
“Are you sure?” Dong-Hoon asked Ji-Hoon.
“Hundred and ten percent. I have noticed all the things since the very start but did not say this to anyone up until now.” Dong-Hoon sighed ruffling his hair afterward.
“Why this is so messed up.” he plopped down sitting on the bed.
“Don’t worry everything is under control. Plus, I am going to take legal actions against them.” Ji-Hoon was determined.
Dong-Hoon pinched the bridge of his nose. “Sometimes I just want to be a normal person. Not the son of Shim Min-Hoon, just Dong-Hoon, just Dong-Hoon, who loves to cook and wants to spend a simple life but no we have to face every drama. Now, this.” he punched his fists into the air to let his frustration out.
