Patricia tapped her fingers aganist her desk, her fake glass nails making loud noises in her quiet home. No press huh? She was incredibly angry but she was a Lee, even in the utmost states of rage she wouldn't lose her cool. Well, it was clear Jason didn't like her at all. Then why was he still in this farce relationship? Why was he acting filial? Why did she feel oddly good when he exerted his dominance? Hmmm.... she must be crazy.

She picked up her phone and called her manager. "Mary, I need a reporter. Call Yoo na." She said.

​​

"Why? Yoona is on maternity leave, she's not even in the country." Mary replied. 

"What? Who the hell gave her permission to go away?" Patricia scoffed.

Mary rolled her eyes thankful she couldn't see her, since when did someone need permission to start a family. "She's fired, tell the station to fire her, she shouldn't even come back." Patricia stated. 

"Aren't you being to impulsive?" Mary started passively.

"Are you questioning me Mary?" Patricia asked in a low dangerous voice. 

"Hey! Don't forget I'm not just anyone Patricia don't cross the line." Mary reprimanded her.

Patricia shut her eyes and drew in a lot of air, calming herself. "Get me a new reporter."

"You should have led with that. I'll call you back." Mary said cutting the call.

**************************************************

"Do you have good news for me?" Lenora smiled at the woman sitting across from her.

"It depends, what are you willing to do for this information?" She asked.

"Oh I think you've lost your advantage here, Mary. You need a new reporter, I'm a new reporter." She said smugly. 

"And there are hundred more of you, I can get someone else." Mary shrugged. 

"Oh you mean someone you can blackmail? Come on now what's the fun in that? Aren't you sick of the way these innocent people are treated? I know you are." She winked.

"It doesn't matter, all I have to do is my job. Nothing else nothing more." Mary replied. 

"Are you sure? I really don't need to go through you, you know." Lenora said.

"If you already know the truth why don't you just go publish it?" Mary asked.

"Well what I 'know' is mere speculation, but you just confirmed it. Patricia Lee is involved in Jason Kang's inauguration ball. Shall I just go to her directly then?" Lenora smiled.

"Wait..." Mary called out.

"You've lost your chance Mary, but don't worry I won't forget that I got the tip from you. I see a bigger fish to catch." Lenora smiled at her.

"Are you seriously going to approach her directly? You don't know what your getting yourself into." Mary warned her.

"Come on Mary, between Patricia and I who is more twisted? I have the background and personality to deal with her, I'm not as easy as the average person you know that." Lenora informed her.

"I know just how sick you are Lenora but Patricia is sick on an entirely different level. You have Jamie to ground you, she has no one." Mary replied, looking at Lenora with a serious stare.

"Don't dare mention his name around me." She said through clenched teeth.

"What happened? Did you guys fight again?" Mary asked.

"It's none of your business, perhaps I should really fall of the wagon. What better influence than the demoness herself." Lenora face fell into a sinister smirk.

"Lenora, Patricia is not the person you can make and acquaintance with. She is the direct definition of when dinning with the devil use a long spoon." Mary insisted. 

"Don't cross the line Mary, don't dare tell me what to do. If she's really that scary then I should become scarier." Lenora said, grabbing her bag and walking out.

Mary bit her lip anxiously, how did she get here? Stuck inbetween to mad people. Patricia was pure evil, all Lee's were. She was someone that would never let a discrepancy go, she would deliver precise blows to people she didn't like. And she was like a deliverance, like a divine punishment on those that dared cross her. She had no regard for life.

Lenora on the other hand was a poison, once she latched on no way you'd escape without some form of damage. She would go to any extent, to get what she wanted. Destroying whatever stood in her way. But she was changing, Jamie was changing her. Why did he have to screw up? Now she was mad and angry. All she wanted was revenge. 

But even though Lenora was the direct definition of a bitch, she couldn't compare to Patricia. She didn't have regard for people feelings or relationships in general. But Patricia had no regard for anything, if she didn't care about lives what could feelings or relationships do?

And while she was scared for Lenora safety, she was more afraid of Patricia ability to corrupt even the purest of things. Lenora was already standing at the edge, what if Patricia tipped her over?

Mary shuddered at the thought, she can't let that happen. Grabbing her phone and purse she ran out of the cafe.

Where the hell was Jamie?

**************************************************

Lenora walked into her apartment, if Jamie thought he could just walk out of her life like that then he could go to hell!

She stripped and opened her closest, picking out a short black dress. With a thigh slit and low back, she put it on. She put on red boots and grabbed a fur coat, with a skin purse. In that instant she looked like a million dollars. She quickly threw her things into the other purse and walked out her apartment. 

She walked into the boutique and scanned the area until her eyes landed on her target. With a smile she walked over to the VIP section. 

"What sort of abomination is that?" She said slowly. 

Patricia Lee turned around and looked at the woman that spoke, with a slight raise of her brow.

"Lenora Han, nice to meet you." She smiled at Patricia. 

"Han? Han energy and chemicals?" Patricia asked. 

"Of course, you must be Patricia Lee, I'm a huge fan." Lenora smiled. 

Patricia smirked at her. "Nice to meet you Lenora Han."

"Please call me Lenora."
