Y/N's POV

"Can I help you?"

"Yes, I'm Mrs. Min. I'm here to see my husband's aunt?" She smiled brightly, looking all prim and proper.

"Right this way, ma'am. I'll let her know." How many times had she already crossed this threshold? How many times had it been as the weaker person, someone who didn't have the resources to fully fight back.

"Y/N?" The feminine voice jarred her from her thoughts and she turned around to see a short, older-looking Korean woman entering the room. The woman reached for her. "I feel so bad, my husband never told me Yoongi married. I didn't even realize he was in contact with that side of the family..." Y/N's smile tightened. "Won't you sit?"

"How are things with the Chairman?" Y/N asked as they both sat. The woman sighed.

"The doctors think his prognosis is good if he wakes up. We don't know if he will or not." Y/N hoped he would. In a couple days. When she was done. "Did you stop by just to ask about him? You're so sweet." Y/N chuckled.

"Actually, no." She paused. "No, I'm not sweet." The woman looked puzzled, not sure what Y/N was saying.

"Do you know how my marriage came to be?" Y/N already suspected the answer but she wanted it confirmed.

"I'm assuming you met, Yoongi proposed, and you were smart enough to catch my husband's eye?" The lady laughed, sounding slightly unsure. Y/N's smile faded.

"Something like that. In a different order." She crossed the legs of her pantsuit and leaned back slightly. "I guess I was smart enough to catch your husband's eye. He had someone offer a fake teaching job in Korea that a well-educated, thirsty-for-travel, young woman would leap at. And I was the lucky winner." The last part was said with a menacing edge.

"Uh...winner...I don't understand, my dear."

"Your husband kidnapped me, threatened my family to make me cooperative, and then married me off to his nephew." The woman in front of Y/N gasped and covered her mouth.

"Are you...are you sure..."

"I'm not here to debate what happened to me, ma'am." Y/N said icily and the woman became quiet instantly. Y/N felt a little bad, she knew the woman in front of her had had no idea what was going on. She softened her tone. "Am I correct in understanding that you now have control of your husband's shares in the company?" The woman nodded.

"Oh my word, that's so awful. I had no idea..." This was what Y/N wanted.

"Do you want to redeem your husband?" The woman nodded emphatically, still processing her shock. "Will you do anything?" The woman didn't hesitate and nodded again.

"Then sign over your husband's shares." The woman blinked.

"But...our retirement..."

"I'll see to it that you're provided for. You. Just you. If you choose to support your husband, that's none of my business. But I get the feeling I'm not the only one he's dominated. Wouldn't you like to have some control in your hands?" The woman was silent and looked down in her lap for what seemed like a long time. But finally she shakily nodded.

"I'm sorry, my dear. That's truly horrible."

The last piece was in place.
