Chapter 21 - 1st World: A/B/O: 10

The Chef x The Movie Emperor

Nix's P.O.V.:

"So, if I die will you stop going after my family? Beyol Bong Tae-Hwan asked in a trembling voice. His whole body felt numb at this point. He had no doubt whatsoever that Lee Eun-ae would not stop until he was dead. He had to protect his family at all costs, even if that meant with his own life. 

Lee Eun-ae stood there with her hip jutted out, finger on her chin looking as if she was in deep thought over his question before responding after a long pause. "Sure, I will stop going after your family if you write a confession letter, post it online in a video format then kill yourself in front of me."

Beyol Bong Tae-Hwan felt like he would be sick at any moment. He could not help thinking about his wonderful and loving family. His parents worked so hard to provide them with all that they needed and what the children wanted to the best of their ability. His parents along with both of his older siblings worked so hard to help him achieve his dream of becoming a chef. 

Beyol Bong Tae-Hwan had always wanted to take care of his family once he became successful enough. He wanted to give back all they gave to him at least tenfold. Had he known that it would cause them so much pain and heart ache, he never would have befriended Lee Eun-ae! Nor would he have ever thought about joining The Chef and The Celebrity. He would have never chosen the high school that he did even if it was the best in the city. Now his top priority is to help and protect his family in any way possible.

With determination flashing in his eyes and a face void of any emotion, he looked Lee Eun-ae in the eye and told her that he would do what she asked. He would gladly give his life if it meant protecting his loved ones, he would do anything for them. He just truly hopes that this will save them.

He stood there with a face and aura colder then absolute zero, full of remorse for his family and resentment and loathing towards Lee Eun-ae to the point that one would worry that Beyol Bong Tae-Hwan's soul may never enter the cycle of rebirth due to the severity of his loathing of his former best friend, standing before him.

Lee Eun-ae had a demonic looking triumphant smile bloom across her face while she recorded the confession video that was also his suicide confession with Beyol Bong Tae-Hwan's phone. She then posted it along with tagging The Chef and The Celebrity, Choi Yongbok, his university and several news agencies so that it would be spread even further and faster.

After posting it as if she were Beyol Bong Tae-Hwan, she walked flew them to The Trinity Bridge, the highest bridge in Cheraw. As she marched him up to the highest point and pinnacle of the beautiful bridge, she could not keep from smiling her creepy demonic smile the whole way. She truly could not be happier because she knew that a soul that committed suicide could never reincarnate.

She was going to watch Beyol Tae-Hwan take his own life knowing that her payback would last eternity. She was so happy it was palatable, and Beyol Bong Tae-Hwan could not keep from sneering in his heart as noted her happiness, thinking to himself that he had never seen her this happy before.

Once they were at the top of the bridge Lee Eun-ae happily reminded Beyol Bong Tae-Hwan that his soul would be tormented in hell for all of time once he commits suicide. At this point Beyol Bong Tae-Hwan was beyond numb and said nothing in response to her jibes. He would not give her the satisfaction of watching him cry nor would he beg her for his life. His decision was made, and he just hoped his family would understand and not blame themselves, after all this was not their fault it was all on Lee Eun-ae.

He ignored Lee Eun-ae while he quickly made a video apologizing to his family, telling them how much he loves them, is truly grateful for all they have done for him though out his life, for always having his back and supporting him no matter what. He told them that he knew they would not ever want this but that it was the only way to keep them safe. He told them to keep their heads up and to remember him as he was before all this. He told them to only rely on each other because family is all you have and can depend on in the end.

With tears streaming down beautiful face, he told each of them he loved them one by one. At the end of his video message, he sent his location tag and the video to his family members phones with urgent delivery. He wanted them to be able to find his body because they deserve that closure. He did not tell them anything that would give Lee Eun-ae away as extra protection, well he hoped it would give them additional protection since they will still be completely ignorant about her involvement.

Beyol Bong Tae-Hwan took a deep breath climbed over railing and once he was on the other side he held on tightly with a secure grip before looking straight at Lee Eun-ae. He saw her notice people approaching so she acted as if she was trying to talk him out of it, she even used fake tears. If only her on screen acting was half this good, then maybe things would not have come to this.

Beyol Bong Tae-Hwan shook his head, he really was blind in the past. While holding her gaze he simply said, "Always the actress too bad your on-screen acting is nowhere near this good, ha-ha 'll be waiting your arrival in hell you black lotus green tea bitch!" Before let go and pushed himself away from the bridge with all his might. As he fell backward, he never took his eyes off the woman he once regarded as a sister and best friend.

His only regret was befriending her in the first place. The force was so great that not only broke his spine but shattered most of his other bones instantly. Thankfully the heavens gave him one last curtesy and allowed him to black out before he drowned ending his suffering. Before blacking out he wished that someone could do what he could not, protect and take care of his family. 

Lee Eun-ae continued to act like she tried to save him and that she was devastated by his actions. She put on an award-winning performance for the witnesses present at the time of Beyol Bong Tae-Hwan took his life. Someone in the crowd that had now gathered quickly contacted the authorities.

The Beyol family rushed to the scene after receiving the video message from Beyol Bong Tae-Hwan and they were beyond devastated that they did not reach him in time, to say the very least. Their youngest was fighting for his life and now their second to the youngest took his own life. How are they to go on without their sunshine?

The authorities came and quickly closed the case after taking witness statements and watching the video confession. Lee Eun-ae played her part so well that not no one questioned her. She even stayed by The Beyol family and "grieved" alongside of them, all while secretly rejoicing at her brilliance and the suffering of Beyol Bong Tae-Hwan's family.

Lee Eun-ae continued to act the part of a grieving, best friend. She even started an anti-bullying foundation and scholarship, in hopes that no child would ever feel that they had nowhere to turn to when being victimized by others. She also went on to be an advocate for anti-suicide prevention on the bridges and other landmarks around Cheraw to help to prevent this from happening to some other poor soul who thought this was the only option when it is not.

Lee Eun-ae went on several talk shows and even starred in a drama based on Beyol Bong Tae-Hwan story, she won 3 awards for that drama, and it pushed her carer into the A List range. Lee Eun-ae ended up signing under Choi Yongbok company Nebula Entertainment where she went on to flourish and caught the attention of Choi Yongbok when it came time to find a wife. He did not have any romantic feelings for Lee Eun-ae, but he did respect her. He simply thought that she was good enough and she signed the extensive prenup he required. He only married her because it was his mother's wish to see him marry before she died and with her sick and nearing what looked to be the end he settled on Lee Eun-ae.

They became the "it power couple" in the industry and became the movie Emperor and Empress. Though there was no love between them at least not on Choi Yongbok's side, he still consummated their union with Lee Eun-ae and produce an heir. They went on to have twin boys, both betas, that eventually took over Nebula Entertainment together taking it and raising it to a whole new level.

On the surface Choi Yongbok and Lee Eun-ae had the picture-perfect relationship. No one would have ever guessed they lived not in just separate master suites but in completely separate wings of their mansion. Choi Yongbok never fell in love with Lee Eun-ae and because of that he refused to mark her as his chosen mate.

He respected her yes and was eternally grateful for his twin boys, but he knew she was not the one meant for him. As per the agreement and prenup they signed before they even got engaged, they only slept together enough to produce offspring and that was it. He maintained a strict hands-off policy with her unless they were in public an then he would allow her to hold his arm or pat his shoulder but that was it.

They never once shared the same bedroom even when traveling. They could go days on end without even seeing the other though Choi Yongbok made sure he saw and spoke with his twins daily even when he was on set, he would either video call them or have them on set with him.

The bond between the 3 of them was comparable to that of an alpha and their omega offspring despite the twins being betas, Choi Yongbok did not care, they were his whole world, and he gave them anything and everything while making sure they grew up to remain humble and kind, not an easy balance to achieve at all yet he somehow managed it.

Lee Eun-ae spent 46years more staying faithful to Choi Yongbok and was in love with him until her dying breath, despite him never once returning her feelings. The few times the copulated in order to have children, it was cold and clinical with Choi Yongbok taking care of himself and once he was ready to cum only then did, he enters her from behind touching only her hips in order to hold her in place before releasing his large load of seamen in her and then leave straight afterwards. He never once knotted her.

Lee Eun-ae was constantly paranoid that Beyol Bong Tae-Hwan's family would investigate and find out the truth of everything. She never planned to keep her word when it came to leaving The Beyol family alone. If it was not for Beyol Bong Tae-Hwan's parents, then she never would have realized how broken her own family was. Why should others get to be truly happy when she is not? Who told them to be so accepting of and love their children so much? It is their own fault!

She had Beyol Joon suffocated in the hospital during Beyol Bong Tae-Hwan's funeral services. She then had Beyol Bong Tae-Hwan's parents, Beyol Shin and Tae Eun-Kyung, killed in a car accident a year later. Beyol Young-Jae took to alcohol to try to ease the pain from the pure hell that his existence became; in which, it caused him to lose his job and unable to hold down any other job. He ended up homeless on the streets. He was killed late one winter night in a fight over a makeshift shelter made out cardboard box and a trash bag.

He was stabbed after he tried to save it because it had a photo of his family back when all six were happy and together still, taped to the inside of the box. He just wanted his family photo and for that he was stabbed and left for dead on the cold streets. As he laid on the cold street, he looked out at the same river Beyol Bong Tae-Hwan jumped into and with a smile on his face he said "I am on my way Father, Mother, Bong Tae-Hwan and Joon, dear family wait for me, I will not be long now" with that he closed his eyes taking his last breath. Since there was no identification on the body the authorities were not able to reach his next of kin, so he was cremated and buried as a John Doe.

Beyol Eun-Ha did not fare any better than the rest of her family, she ended up losing her mind and spent the rest of life in a mental health asylum. She was never able to convince people that Lee Eun-ae was behind the death of per precious brother and her family. She spent her days locked away in isolation on suicide watch unable to end her own suffering. She passed away from a heart failure at the age of 53. She was cremated and laid to rest on the hospital grounds as there was no one left to claim her remains.

 Even after Lee Eun-ae's death no one ever discovered what she had done, no one even tried to investigate all the highly suspicious deaths in this family, simply because no one likes to admit that they might have been wrong, especially when it comes to a person's death. How could anyone bare to know that they were part of death of not just an innocent young man but his entire family as well? No, no one wanted to think that way because it was too suffocating to even imagine.
