Hearing this, Father Jung and Ye Lan were shocked. They then burst out laughing like they had heard a ridiculous joke.

"Krystal, have you gone crazy? I was the one that told you to leave..."

"I know," Krystal remained calm as she smiled, "But, what right do you have to make me leave?"

Hearing this question, Father Jung retrieved his smile and let go of Ye Lan as he approached Krystal in a dominant manner,

"With the fact that I am your father and everything you own was given to you by me. This includes your prestigious ident.i.ty and everything that the Jung Family has provided you. Even your right to live in this household was given by me."

"Krystal, I don't mean to lecture you, but your father is currently furious. You should move out for a little and come back when your father is no longer angry..." Ye Lan said, pretending to be nice.

"I'm sure you know how his temper is like. Be good, stop joking...otherwise, who know how much you may need to suffer again..."

"Who's joking?" Krystal growled as she looked at Ye Lan in seriousness.

"Krystal, you are shameless! Hubby, let's not waste any more time on her. Let's get the housekeeper to kick her out!"

Father Jung glanced at Krystal before he turned to the housekeeper and said, "You heard what the Madam said..."

The housekeeper looked at Ye Lan and then turned to look at Krystal. He then shook his head, "Sorry Master Jung, I don't have the right to go against Miss Jung's orders..."

Father Jung was surprised, but suddenly came to a realization, "Did my father give you instructions before he left?"

"Housekeeper, throw their stuff out!" Krystal yelled as she pointed to the luggage before the housekeeper got the chance to respond.

The housekeeper glanced at Father Jung before he walked over to the luggage and started dragging them towards the door. But, at this time, Ye Lan ran over and blocked his path, "Do you not know who owns this house?!"

"He obviously knows. That's why he knows who's orders to listen to," Krystal responded.

"What do you mean?"

Krystal did not waste any more time on the couple as she pulled out the deeds to the house as well as other related doc.u.ments, "Have a close look and see for yourself who's name this house is under!"

Father Jung s.n.a.t.c.hed the doc.u.ments out of Krystal's hands and quickly flipped through it, "This is impossible. Krystal..."

"Grandfather personally signed these papers in front of the lawyers. Perhaps, you would like to speak to them?" Krystal crossed her arms as she spoke.

"Jung Doog-wook, after all the years of abuse you have given me, you must have never expected this day to come. Grandfather didn't want to see the Jung Family's inheritance fall into the hands of a sl*t, so he changed the owners.h.i.+p of the house to my name."

"So, tell me, who owns this house now?"

After hearing Krystal's words, Ye Lan s.n.a.t.c.hed the doc.u.ments from Father Jung's hands and had a look, "What's wrong with your father? Is he old and senile? Fathers always dote on their sons, I've never seen a father skip a generation and dote on their granddaughter instead?"

"You've never seen it before? I've never seen a father abuse his own daughter, yet the man in front of you has done exactly that," Krystal mocked. "Let's stop wasting each other's time. Housekeeper, throw their stuff out!"

Father Jung fell into a panic, so he immediately grabbed the doc.u.ments and tore it to shreds, "This doesn't count!"

"You've simply torn up a copy. The original is with grandfather. Regardless of whether you acknowledge it or not, this doc.u.ment is already recognized in the court of law. Therefore, you have no choice but to follow it!"

Father Jung was so angry that his veins began showing. It was obvious that he was trying to control his emotions.

"By the way, there's one more thing I almost forgot to tell you. Due to the fact that Jung Corps' performance has been plummeting, I have decided to dismiss you from the position of CEO. Of course, whether you can still keep your position on the board of directors is dependent on my mood..."

"...because grandfather has combined his, my mother's and my shares together and placed them all under my name."

"In other words, I am currently the main shareholder in Jung Corps."

"As for why you have been dismissed, I think the fact that Ye Lan's scandal with Tiffany has caused the company great embarra.s.sment, is enough of a reason, don't you think? Former CEO?"

"Since you like this woman so much, you can both be destroyed together."

"I would like to see, when you are left with nothing, whether this woman would stay by a 50-something-year-old man's side for the rest of her life!"

Not only had he lost his house, he even lost his majority shares. Father Jung did not know how to accept this reality. So, he immediately rang his a.s.sistant to confirm the situation.

"Yang, has anything happened over the past couple of days?"

"Well...President Jung...Because of what happened with the Madam, both Hwang Corps and Crown Empire have been placing pressure on us and the entire board of directors has been asked to hold responsibilty. To resolve the issue, the chairman has already released an official notice: you have been dismissed from your role."

"Everything was still fine when I left work today!"

"I received the notice after you left. I even called to hold you back, but you said you had something urgent at home and not to bother you unless someone was dying," the a.s.sistant replied helplessly.

After hearing his a.s.sistant's response, Father Jung directly threw the phone on the floor and glared at Krystal.

"Hubby...what happened?" Ye Lan asked as she ran over and clung to his arm.

However, Father Jung brushed her arm away and pointed at her angrily, "Don't touch me, you sl*t!"

Ye Lan was stunned by Father Jung's reaction...

"Hubby..."

"This is all because of you." Father Jung could no longer contain his anger as he kicked Ye Lan's stomach. "If you didn't go cause trouble with Tiffany, I wouldn't have lost my position as CEO!"

Seeing the couple turn on each other, Krystal looked at Ye Lan and laughed, "This is your first time experiencing this, isn't it? Your day has finally come."

Ye Lan fell to the floor as tears rolled out of her eyes in pain...

How could she endure a kick like this?

"Hubby, what did I do? Why would you treat me this way...?"

"I told you long ago not to provoke Tiffany. Yet, you didn't listen to me. Even if Tiffany is easy to bully, she still has Taeyeon backing her. He has always been wise, ruthless and heartless to outsiders. Did you think he would let you off the hook for scheming against his wife?" Krystal laughed.

"Would you believe me if I told you this is just the beginning?"

"Once you've left the Jung Household and lost your last layer of protection, just wait and see what Crown Empire and President Kim will do to you!"

"Above all, don't forget that Tiffany always gives an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth!"

Ye Lan lay helplessly on the floor. As she listened to Krystal's words, a cold chill spread from her back to her limbs...

"Think about it in detail. From the time that Tiffany announced her comeback to the present day - from Kim Hyuna to Yang Xi - Tiffany has always been a winner. She likes to fight and she's not afraid of fighting. If something doesn't belong to her, she won't want even a tiny slice of it, but...if someone crosses her bottom line, then sorry, she will fight with you until you are left with nothing!"

"Tiffany has never lost!"

Previously, because of support from Father Jung, Ye Lan acted with no fear. After all, everyone that managed to survive in the entertainment industry had support of some sort. Plus, when competing for an award, the winner always took all.

For the sake of glory, other filthier methods existed in the industry. Most importantly...

...Ye Lan never expected that Father Jung would ever be left with nothing.

Realizing that she no longer had Father Jung's protection and that she had to face Hwang Corps, Crown Empire and the heartless Taeyeon on her own, a sense of panic slowly overcame her...

In fact, she was filled with fear!

"No, this can't happen hubby. You can't treat me like this...I know that I was wrong," Ye Lan groveled at Father Jung's feet. But, for someone that just lost his position of power, Father Jung was not in the mood to care about anyone else but himself. So...

...he simply kicked her away and added a few stomps on her stomach to satisfy his anger.

Ye Lan cried in pain as she pleaded, "Hubby, I won't do it again. I really won't..."

Seeing this, the housekeeper wanted to step forward and put a stop to the abuse, but Father Jung immediately warned, "If you dare to step in, I will make you disappear from sight!!"

To prevent the housekeeper from being implicated, Krystal instructed, "Leave first."

But, the true meaning in her words was evident: she wanted him to immediately seek Minho for help.

The housekeeper understood as he nodded his head and left.

Meanwhile, Ye Lan did not give up pleading, "Hubby, my stomach hurts...it hurts..."

But, Father Jung no longer held regard for anyone in his eyes. So, he directly walked over to Krystal and grabbed her by the shoulders, "Call your grandfather immediately and tell him to return my house and shares!"

"Return? This stuff has always belonged to my mother and I. What do you mean return?" Krystal asked coldly.

"Jung Doog-wook, I think, at a time like this, you should turn to your amazing wife. Since you are both so loving, I'm sure she will do anything to help you..."

"Otherwise, how would she be able to pay you back for all the love you have shown her?"

"After being abused by you for 20 odd years, I have long hoped for you to lose everything. So, there's no point speaking to me about it."

Father Jung glared at Krystal. The endurance in his eyes seemed to have reached its limit as he roared, "Return Jung Corps to me! Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless. Did you think, by telling your grandfather to strip me of my position and to take away my belongings, you'd be free from me? You must be dreaming! Let me tell you Krystal, I gave birth to you, so I am your father. You will never be able to escape me in this lifetime!"

Krystal looked into Father Jung's eyes; the eyes that were filled with anger. There had been many times in the past when she was terrified frozen by this look in his eyes, but now, she now longer feared it. Perhaps it was because she now had the means to fight back, or perhaps she was no longer afraid of anything. After all, a courageous person was impenetrable!

"I know..."

"I know you gave birth to me. But, when have you treated me like a human being?" Krystal asked as she raised her voice. "If you want to hit me again, then go ahead. If you want to yell at me, then yell all you want. Do you know how long I have waited for this day?"

"There have been times in the past when I dreamed of dragging you down to the grave with me, especially during times when I was hit. But, when I came to my senses, I would ask myself why I would sacrifice my life over a jerk like you?"

"Now that I've seized control of Hwang Corps and become the owner of this house, I can do whatever I want to you. I can watch you beg for mercy and I can step all over you. I can watch you live your life like a beggar and watch you suffer the consequences of revenge. I can watch you being bullied and watch you die all alone in bed the way that mother did!"

"Jung Doog-wook, there have been multiple times in the past when I could have told grandfather about what you've done, but I held back because we are blood-related. However, this time, I will not hold back at all!"

"There are too many people in this world that put up with domestic violence, but they have no way of escaping from this nightmare simply because the person abusing them is a family member..."

"But, from today onwards, I want you to know that not only can I free myself from you, I can also make the rest of your life a living hell! Jung Doog-wook, your life is over!"

"Completely over!"

After saying these words, Krystal looked like she had released all the pain she had endured over the years. Her eyes ended up turning red in anger...

"So, take yourself​ and your beloved wife out of my sight!"

"From today onwards, everything you once owned, is now mine!"

After hearing Krystal's words, Father Jung was so angry that he couldn't control his emotions. As a result, he reached out his arms and started strangling Krystal...

However, Krystal did not fight back. She simply smiled as she reminded her father, "Aren't you going to check on your wife? Have you not noticed the blood coming from her body? From the looks of it, you haven't realized that Ye Lan is pregnant."

Jung Doog-wook turned his head and looked at Ye Lan. She was indeed sitting in a small pool of blood. For a short moment, he was a little surprised, but, before long, he returned his angry gaze to Krystal as his right hand remained wrapped around her neck, "Give me back Jung Corps! Otherwise, no one will be leaving here today!"

However, Krystal was no longer afraid as she directly said to Jung Doog-wook, "You want it back? Do you really think that's possible?"

"In that case, go die!"

"If you want to die, then go ahead, why should I die?" After speaking, Krystal turned to the doorway and yelled, "Minho..."

Minho had been nearby the entire time, so as soon as the housekeeper stepped out, he immediately found Minho's location.

Minho and a few bodyguards waited by the door until they heard Krystal's cry for help. They immediately rushed in to find Father Jung strangling Krystal. Minho directly threw a punch at Father Jung, forcing him to let go...

"Little Monkey, are you OK?"

Krystal was angry and in pain as she turned around to hug Minho, "Minho, help me..."

"Leave the rest with me!"

Minho shielded Krystal as he glared coldly at Father Jung. At this moment, he was like a powerful lion that had just been awoken, "If you dare to touch a single hair on her body, I will make you wish you were dead!"

Jung Doog-wook covered his cheek as he glared back at Minho. The dangerous aura emanating from Minho's eyes actually made Jung Doog-wook hesitant to do anything for a moment.

A bodyguard took this opportunity to walk over and press Jung Doog-wook against the floor. At the same time, the housekeeper called the ambulance after seeing the amount of blood that Ye Lan had lost.

A moment later, Krystal finally calmed down. Looking at the restrained Jung Doog-wook, she closed her eyes and said to Minho, "Let him go for now. Our main priority is to get Ye Lan to the hospital."

Minho turned and looked at Krystal. Even though she told him to let her father go, he could still see the hatred in her eyes. In the end, he nodded his head. But, he was definitely going to avenge the little monkey today. Otherwise, the wound in her heart would never heal.

"Take her to the hospital."

The ambulance arrived swiftly. By this time, Ye Lan had completely lost her usual arrogance as she lay weakly in the stretcher until they delivered her to the hospital and carried her into the emergency room.

Outside the room, Minho and Krystal stood to the left of the door, while Jung Doog-wook stood to the right with complex emotions.

10 minutes later, the doctor came out and said apologetically to Father Jung, "It's a shame. She was already 2 months pregnant."

Pregnant!

She was actually pregnant! Krystal had no idea that Ye Lan was actually pregnant. She simply took a guess when she saw all the blood that Ye Lan had lost. Who would have thought that she'd be right.

Father Jung supported himself against the white hospital walls. The words that he heard made him subconsciously retreat a few steps.

"Your violent nature has caused the death of your own child," Krystal said in mockery. "That's great, Jung Doog-wook. You are truly left with nothing now."

"Little Monkey..." Minho said comfortingly. He wondered how much suffering she must have gone through, for her to have hidden so much hatred.

"Minho, would you believe that he would be even more pitiful after Ye Lan wakes up and finds out that she has lost her child?"

Minho took a deep breath. He suddenly didn't know what to say.

"Which one of you is Ye Lan's family member? The patient has woken up and would like to see Mr Jung Doog-wook. Which one of you is Jung Doog-wook?" a nurse asked as she stepped out of the emergency room. Krystal responded by pointing coldly to her father.

Jung Doog-wook pushed open the door without a word. However, before he reached Ye Lan's bedside, a heavy item hit him in the head as he heard the shrill cry of Ye Lan's voice, "Jung Doog-wook! You're worse than an animal! Get lost! I want a divorce!"

Hearing the cries coming from the room, Krystal's lips curved upwards in mockery, "What a joke! This woman once thought that she could inherit everything owned by the Jung Family. But now, she will simply be seen as an old man's toy that has had a miscarriage."

Minho did not get a chance to respond, because at this moment, Father Jung rushed out of the emergency room with blood dripping from his head as he glared at Krystal.

After quite some time, he finally said, "Did you have to force me to act so ruthlessly?"

"When you used to humiliate me in the past, did you ever wonder if you were acting too ruthlessly at that time?" Krystal replied with a slightly emotional tone, even though her words were firm.

Jung Doog-wook raised his thumb at Krystal without saying another word nor pleading for mercy. He simply pushed the two aside and walked out of the hospital. As she looked at him from behind, Krystal noticed that he suddenly looked like he had aged. It was like he was a frail old 70/80-year-old man.

Needless to say, with Jung Doog-wook's dismissal and Ye Lan's miscarriage, Jung Corps had successfully helped Taeyeon make his first move.

"Everything is yours now. You need to stay strong and welcome a new beginning," Minho said as he patted Krystal on the shoulder.

"I will prove to everyone that I am better than Jung Doog-wook!" Krystal said confidently. "From today onwards, I am President Jung: the new person in charge of Jung Corps."

"Let's go, I'll take you home," Minho said as he shook her body.

"By the way, I've decided to sell the Jung Family Home so Jung Doog-wook can never return home," Krystal revealed.

With that, not only did Jung Doog-wook lose his home and company, he also lost the woman that was supposed to stay by his side.

As for Ye Lan, it was obvious what happened to her.

Her name immediately appeared on the hottest search rankings. After all, she was hit by her own husband and
