Chapter 5
Different FacesTime passed by so fast, the hours became days and days turns to months... While everything goes smoothly as plan for the Kim's, things turns chaos for the Bae's especially Mr. Bae and with his family
Mr. Bae: Bae Joohyun!!! You're not going to waste anything I've plan for you and the future of the company!!
Irene: But why me?? Why not Yongsun unnie?? She's the eldest after all??
Mr. Bae: she can't.. And she never will!! (Angry tone)
Irene: well I don't get it thought, I didn't even dream to manage a company.. Never in my dreams dad
Mr. Bae: but you need to, please do consider it Joohyun-ah, I can't trust the company to anyone aside from you
Irene: how about unnie? Nini?? What if one of them wants to replace you instead??
Mr. Bae: No!! That will never happen (he spat the words through gritted teeth)
Irene: (she got shocked from the tone of her father) dad.. Please calm down ok?? I was just giving you an option if ever I don't want to be your successor.. But seems like you already plan all of these without unnie and Nini on it..? Why dad? Is it true what I've heard before??
Mr. Bae: (he got taken aback) what are you saying?? What did you heard before??
Irene: (she let's out a sigh) that.. They are just adopted??
Mr. Bae: (he got surprised by the question yet he didn't show it in his face) (he chuckled) where did you get that idea Joohyun-ah?? (He looks at his daughter questioningly)
Irene: well I heard from them two.. Maybe they were just joking but I don't know why they think like that.. But they are not adopted right dad?? They're my true sisters right??
Mr. Bae: Joohyun-ah.. You shouldn't believe anything you've heard, maybe your sisters are just jealous of you that's why
Irene: why would they've got jealous of me then??
Mr. Bae: maybe because we prioritized you?? We already told them before about your situation and we actually asked for their understanding.. Yet I guess they still didn't accept it
Irene: is it about my condition since I was a kid??
Mr. Bae: yeah.. And I guess your sisters are just annoyed about it that they can't accept the things that we need to protect and prioritize you first, they're just jealous and can't understand
Irene: but I'm old now dad... I'm very well and healthy, maybe you should gave them some attention too though, we're siblings and I don't want them to still think that way against me
Mr. Bae: listen to me Joohyun-ah.. I trusted you more than your sisters, because I can actually see the future of the company in you
Irene: but dad.. I don't want to, it's frustrating to handle such things, and I didn't see myself doing the things you're doing right now, Yongsun unnie is more capable than me.. She has the mind of a business woman
Mr. Bae: (he just hit the table forcefully beside him with so much anger) Enough Bae Joohyun and that *ng nonsense!!
Irene: (she got scared)
Mr. Bae: starting from now on you should practiced yourself and be mindful!! And I don't want to hear any resistance from you again?? You got me??
Irene: (she just nodded while her tears started to form in her eyes)
Mr. Bae: just go.. (He got back at his seat and Read some files)
Irene: (she hurriedly leaves the office without even glancing back at his father)
On her way to the elevator, she bumps into assistant Jang that is currently with Ms. Jung, Irene just walked past them and enters the elevator without saying anything to the assistant
Ms. Jung: (she looks carefully at the closing elevator noticing the tears stained eyes of Irene) who is that Mr. Jang?? (she just asked the obvious question yet she don't want to be suspicious at the moment) is she crying??
Mr. Jang: owh.. That's Mr. Bae's daughter, she maybe got scolded by Mr. Bae again.. Poor that kid I can't actually understand why Mr. President is pressuring her to be his successor when in fact he has his eldest child whom much more interested in business in my own opinion, Yongsun is much more business minded than Joohyun yet his being firm to pass the company to his second child (sigh)
Ms. Jung: I see.. It was some family matters, maybe he just know what's b
