Jinyong was not surprised that his parents were not in the Mo mansion when he got there.

Mo Aida must have really given up on him. But no matter what, he was still going to need her. He had to convince her that he was ready now; ready to takeover.

He was willing to be used by her, but....he had to choose his own woman. He didn't want another Weiyoung in his life.

But he knew that was very much going to be a big problem.

He looked at the people present there with an expressionless face. What was there to fear? What else did he have to lose again?

"You rascal! What are you doing not protecting your fiancée? Do you know she almost died, if not for your uncle who rescued her?"

Elder Mo yelled angrily at his useless grandson. He was really fed up with this family where they all fought with each other every passing day.

About the incident with that video, he was not stupid. He knew very well that someone in the Mo family must have helped the young lady with the restroom's footage. And he knew it must have been his precious son, Dexi. But Jinyong had attacked Dexi first in his own video. He really didn't blame Dexi for fighting back. Besides, he was not wrong.

But the effect was that, it was affecting his entire family. And he was really angry about it.

If things continued like this, the Mo family was going to turn into a laughingstock soon.

Jinyong didn't bother to explain anything. His grandparents were only going to keep calling him names so what was the point?

His eyes found Weiyoung who was quietly sitting on the couch with a straight face.

She hadn't bothered to acknowledge his presence ever since he got in. It was as if they were both two strangers.

"I'm glad she is fine" He said in the most insincere manner which earned him scoffs of unbelieve from both his grandparents.

"Forget it. Go get your things. You are going to stay here with her before you both travel out on Wednesday." Madam Mo instructed.

Jinyong smirked at all of them. Wasn't it obvious that he was done with her? She was the one who announced their fake wedding so she should deal with it. His mother had linked him up with her and now he was left alone to take care of all of these?

"I'm not staying here. Neither am I traveling with her. I no longer want to marry her" He brazenly informed all of them.

For the first time, Weiyoung threw her head sideways to glare at him.

'It was him' She said to herself. 'He tried to get rid of me.'

It did hurt her feeling a lot but she tried to hide her emotions as she just stared at him blankly.

Things were never going to look good for her. Nothing was going to work now. She had even planned to use the Jin family and Song family. But now, she had no one by her side to help set her plans in motion. Her family was nothing right now and she wouldn't be able to appear in public for the fear of being criticized. The media on the other hand were looking for any chance to trouble her.

And... there was someone who wanted her dead, despite the fact that she was carrying his child.

Was this a mistake? She didn't think the child would be enough to keep her alive now.

Her ears were deaf to the banter going on in there. She was thinking of ways to survive. Ways to live.

A thought popped into her head to get rid of the baby and travel out to start afresh. She didn't care about her family. It's not like they've always cared about her. She had to think of and for herself especially at a time like this.

But she knew she couldn't do it. It would mean she surrendered, it would mean she was weak and everyone won while she lost. She would be giving every other person a happy ending except herself.

And she didn't want that.

She came back to reality when she heard the door slam. Jinyong had just walked out on all of them.

She clenched her fists beside her tightly. She allowed different thoughts flow freely in her head before she finally accepted one with an eerie smile.

Elder Song was still reeling from the shock of what had happened. He had been receiving phone call upon phone call. The more the call, the more the Song corporation's shares dropped. If not that he had to put things in order, he would have fainted.

He was at the age where he believed he should be resting at home. But now.... He only hoped that the managers in the company would be able to handle things smoothly. Thanks to the Yang family who was also helping him out.

"We should just do what she says" His wife said with tears in her eyes.

"We are going to keep sinking if we continue this way. Let's just go apologize to the Wangs like she asked us to please" She retorted to pleading. Her husband was a man of too much pride. She knew it was going to be hard for him to accept defeat like this.

"Do you know what is going to happen to us? Do you even know what you are saying?" He yelled angrily.

Changyu had told them that it was already too long and the people mainly involved were already dead so she asked them to take it up on theirselves to let the world know what they did to that family. To clear the Wangs name.

How was he supposed to do that?

Elder Song remembered telling Father Wang that he was capable of wiping off his family name from the face of the earth if they didn't handle their son properly.

But when he thought Father Wang was going to take his threats seriously, Father Wang had annoyed him further by telling him he would protect his family till he draws his last breath.

That was the last straw. Elder Song didn't waste time in finishing off the family.

Now, his daughter wanted him to apologize to Elder Wang's children and tell the whole world he had actually framed them and destroyed the family?

Why was she protecting them all of a sudden? What reason?

"I totally forgot about them. If I had known they were still in this country, I would have gotten rid of them a long time ago" Elder Song was pissed for letting his guard down.

"Do you... Think she still loves that Wang son? Is that why she is doing this? Is that why she never got married?" Madam Song asked.

Elder Song tried not to laugh. Why would she still be hung up on that person for all these years? Maybe she felt bad about what they did. How could his daughter be hung up on that insignificant being.

"The most important thing is saving this family and the company. We can just offer them enough money. I'm sure they'll let go of everything. What can money not solve?" Elder Song said.

"Please...let's just go apologize to them first. Changyu might let us be if we do so."

His wife still tried to reason with him. But he could not accept it.

"If we do it, do you think it's going to end there? She will keep finding things out. What if she also finds out about that incident?" He asked in a worried tone.

Madam Song instantly understood what he was saying and began to pace around uncomfortably.

"She won't. She can't possibly find out....right?" Madam Song was beginning to sound unsure.

"We....we got rid of all of them involved. She won't find out" Her confidence came back when she thought about how they had handled everything smoothly.

"Wait.. Do you think she found out and that's why she travelled out for all those years?" Madam Song asked in a panic again.

"No, it can't be. She would have done worse to us if she knew that we didn't cremate her baby like we claimed" Elder Song answered in fear.

Changyu's wineglass dropped when she heard the conversation sent from the listening bug a maid had helped her install under the expensive wooden table.
