I pouted and threw the phone on the bed before walking away.I was only getting hate comments, everyone was talking about their theories about me getting between Melissa and Jiyong; causing her to do this.

"I'm the bad guy, how good." I rolled my eyes and sat on the fluffy black couch Jiyong chose for the house.Honestly I didn't pity Melissa, I tried so hard to feel sad for her but no, I couldn't.I knew she did it because she was scared of losing Jiyong, completely.Cause before me she had nothing on her way, Jiyong was agreed to marry her since he had no better choice.I knew Jiyong still cared about her even though he kept pushing her away, it seemed like he was doing it for her own good.He was a person who would say ' off' to anyone's face if he didn't like them, but he didn't do that to Melissa.He kept being patient about her and after some internet research, which wasn't so hard since everyone was posting their old photos and videos together, I realized that he had to act like this because she really wanted to be his lover, and didn't stop even after he announced that we were together.I still didn't understand why she chose to hurt herself now, she created a big mess and I couldn't even understand how the hell media knew everything.They were all talking about the poor girl who was left behind after Lee's young heir coming to the sight and it made me feel disgusted.Did I need to feel sorry about it? Absolutely not, Jiyong didn't love her before me either and right now she was just pushing her luck.

When Jiyong went to see her after driving me home, I had some time to think about all of this.I was too confused, I had a lot of things in my mind for a very long while; the decision of leaving my family, accepting Jiyong's deal, going back to school, trying to accept my feelings towards Jiyong.I was so busy with all of these and I didn't actually realized the way Melissa tried so hard.She was always there, it had to be our news but everyone put her name next to ours cause she kept posting things that would confuse others, being dramatic about Jiyong's car accident and making everyone think that it was a love triangle thing.She didn't stop.I remembered the way she tried to in when Sandara was explaining the deal and why she had to send us to her special place.I knew she was jealous, I knew she would do anything to stop us going but I didn't expect this.

I got startled when I heard the doorbell, I wasn't waiting for anyone.

"Noona?"

"Hey." Sandara smiled as she walked in, giving her coat to our maid who opened the door for her.

"What are you doing here? I thought you would be at the hospital."

"I wanted to see you, everyone's with her already." She walked closer and sat on the couch, patting on it to make me sit and I sighed loudly before sitting back.

"Thank you but I'm okay."

"But your face is not saying that."

I sighed again, couldn't erase my pout since I didn't feel good about this.

"I'm sorry to ruin your vacation, I had to call him before others would try to contact him you know...It would be a bigger mess if you two wouldn't be around when this happened, media is literally going mad about this."

I nodded.

"It wasn't your fault." I smiled at her, actually I knew I had to feel weird with being this close to her but I felt nothing.I liked her but only as an older sister, now I didn't even know why I thought I liked her at first.

"I don't know how to say this but..." I looked at her as she seemed uneasy, like she came here to say something more than checking on me but also hesitated. "--I don't think Melissa wanted to die or she is depressive, Seungri."

I chuckled angrily before rubbing my face, cause she was thinking exactly same with me.

"She's playing the victim." I mumbled. "You can't believe how I tried to convince myself to feel sorry about her until we came back, but I just can't."

She quickly nodded, like she completely understood me.

"Look I know her----she is not a person who would go out of the board like this."

"What do you mean?" I looked at her, not getting her point.

"I think just like us---all of us, even Daesung, we all thought you guys were playing something when you said you're together."

I nodded, already aware of that.

"But after some time--- you guys were so normal, we didn't even remember why we chose to not to believe you in the first place and it's just..."

"What? What is it?" I asked curiously.

"Jiyong changed." She sighed before looking at me. "He would never act like that with Melissa, he said that you're on top of everything including his work Seungri.It might sound like a flirt or a joke between you guys I don't know, but I know my brother, Melissa does know him." She raised her eyebrows like it was her point. "I guess she realized that it wasn't just a game for Jiyong, she sensed there was no going back."

"I just---" I stood up, trying to stay calm but I was so ing mad inside. "--I just don't understand, she already has everything, why she can't think about anything else than getting married to Jiyong?" I asked her, really wondering why Melissa was doing this.

"It's more than that, Seungri." She said in a soft tone like she really felt sorry for me. "She was only one step close to be a Kwon, all of sudden everything crushed down."

"So what?" I snapped. "It's not like she can take him away from me, we're ing married."

"That's the thing." She kept staying calm even though my voice got louder. "I guess she is playing her last card." She stood up just like me as I kept looking at her. "She is not a person who would kill herself just for someone else, so believe me you won't cause her to get hurt.She is playing a game, Seungri."

"I don't want to play a ing game."

"I know." She stepped closer and caressed my shoulder. "You just need to stay calm, stay away from the media for a while, don't mind anything they say.They choose the winning side everytime this kind of thing happens, they're just waiting to see the side Jiyong's gonna pick.Melissa can be powerful but none of us are powerful than him."

"I don't think it's about power, noona." I said with a pout but she chuckled before patting on my shoulder.

"It is, Seungri." She smiled. "She will probably get married with another wealthy guy but nobody is gonna be higher than Jiyong."

I sighed, knowing that she was right and I accidentally got married with the damn king of the country.

"Just don't let anyone make you upset, it will be okay."

"How?" I furrowed my eyebrows. "If she is like this it means she will never stop trying."

"She will stop, she is not dumb.Once she sees that she has no cards to play, she will eventually stop Seungri."

"I hope so." I said, my tone came out a bit defeated but I didn't really care.

"Take care." She hugged me and I gave her a gentle smile before she walked away. "And Seungri---" She smiled at me after putting her coat on. "--don't forget that you're the married one."

"What do you mean?" 

"I mean that.." She bit her lip before smiling and I knew she was on something. "--you're the married one, not the bad guy who wants attention.So don't forget to play your cards as well." She said before waving at me and I just smiled until she walked outside.

I knew what she meant, I always played my cards with her but this time it was different.Everyone was against to me and standing by her side cause she was the girl who loved someone enough to kill herself.

"Such a cliche." I rolled my eyes at the thought, walking upstairs to get some sleep.Because I couldn't stop thinking and after hours of thinking all I got was a damn pout on my face.

-

I opened my eyes as I felt a weight on his side of the bed.

"What time is it?" I quickly tried to get up but he pushed me down again.

"It's late, go back to sleep." He said in an exhausted tone and I turned my body to him, looking at his stressed face.

"How is she?" I asked, leaning my cheek on my palm.

"She is fine." He said in a strict tone as he closed his eyes and I really tried to stay calm, I knew it was hard for him but I hated that tone.

"So? That's all? Don't you think I deserve an explanation?"

"For what?" He asked without opening his eyes and I took a deep breathe, still trying to keep my voice down.

"I wanna know what you two talked about, Jiyong."

"I'm so tired Seungri." He mumbled with closed eyes and that was it, I lost my at that.

"Yeah? Oh---sorry!" I snapped before tossing the blanket away and standing up. "I was kind of worried since you came back from your ex-fiance in the middle of the night! Sorry!"

"I didn't stay there because I wanted!"

"It doesn
