The CEO Who Hates Me

"Yes, halt any movement that can affect Shawn's name. No… wait for my further instructions. I have to pull him out first before I crash that Old Man Skull entirely. We have to change some strategies to make sure Shawn is not harmed in any way while we pursue our mission. Right now, stay put and make sure all that I had instructed earlier, now excluding Shawn, is ready at any moment." Ryu instructed on the phone then pressed the end button.

He moved his head up and leaned it on the headrest of his chair and closed his eyes.

Now that everything was confirmed, he needed to change their plans and take into consideration the reputation of his brother Shawn.

Shawn must not be dragged down together with the Old Man Skull and because of this; the plan will need a few important changes keeping Shawn in mind.

This will delay their hit on their enemy but certain things are more important than teaching that old man a lesson.

Truly time doesn't matter now. What is more important is how to make Shawn realise the truth and bring him back with our parents.

Shawn is the most important person right now. He should act faster.

He and Dean both agreed to Arya's idea. They would make it happen. The reality show where he and Shawn could live together in one house.

That time would be the best to tell the truth to Shawn or at least give him some idea about the things that had happened. Maybe he would understand things and realise what's right.

That's the best option for him right now and at the same time even the Old Man Skull wouldn't get suspicious about things so he wouldn't make any drastic move.

Ryu sighed…

Today was Arya's first day in shooting the drama and he was planning to surprise her. He will pick her up from the location and take her out on a date….

It's really been a while since he had taken her out to spend some good time together.

He looked at his watch… He should leave now to arrive at the shooting place before her shooting is over.

He got up to leave and halted when he reached the door of his office. He came back, opened the second drawer in his table and took out a box from there, with a wide smile on his face.

'Today is the first day of your shoot, this is my congratulatory gift for my beautiful and talented wife.'

"Chen I will drive the car and pick Arya up…" he said simply when he saw Chen talking to his secretary.

Chen handed him one of his car keys.

Arya's shoot took place at an old mansion. Her scene as Lei will be dramatic and traumatic where she will arrive home to see her mother dead and six year old daughter who was badly hurt.

She was wearing an office uniform and Dina was finishing her make-up when the director said, "Okay, Arya get in the spot. We will a start in one minute."

She smiled and Dina said, "There you look so natural.I don't need to add too much make-up. You're just perfect."

Kay was also there with Bernard so Arya felt more nervous.

'Why is he here? Did he want to see how I perform?' She thought then released an air out harshly to relax.

She positioned herself and waited for the Director to say 'ACTION'.

Then she heard the shout, "Okay, ready, camera, action…"

[Lei walked inside the house happily as she called for her daughter. She had brought her the cake she loved so much. "Lei, mom is here." She called her daughter with a sweet smile on her face.

There's no answer so she called her mother, "Ma, Ma…" Still no answer then she felt something weird and she panicked when she saw blood, drops of blood on the floor leading to the kitchen. She quickly ran and saw her mother was covered with blood while she hugged her daughter with blood too.

"Oh my God… Ma… Ash…" she said in terror then she shouted for help. Her mother was not breathing anymore. She held her daughter and found that she was still breathing.

With trembling hands, she dialed a number and called for help…

"Ash… mommy is here… Ash please… please… baby hang in there… please… keep breathing baby… mommy will not leave you… Oh God, please don't take her away from me. Please Oh God please… Ash baby please baby don't leave mommy please… keep breathing baby please… Mommy is here…"

Lei's eyes were clouded with tears as she pressed the wound of Ash that keeps on bleeding.]

Kay couldn't help but cry on his place as he felt Arya's emotions on the scene. "Oh God, I told you she's born for this. She's a natural, without effort… those emotions are so real…" he murmured with Bernard at his side.

"Yes, I can see that. She is really awesome as always," Bernard whispered as he stared with admiration at Arya.

"I'm sorry? Did you know her before?" Kay suddenly asked.

Bernard was acting weird lately but Kay was not paying too much attention since he was busy in managing Arya's introduction in the entertainment industry, to make sure everything was in perfection.

"Did I hear it right? You said as always? If I'm not mistaken I only introduced her to you for casting of this drama recently." Kay asked suspiciously.

Bernard laughed and winked at him, "You just heard wrong…why? Yes..you introduced her to me recently…how would I know her already? By the way is everything arranged at the coming press conference? I want her to look absolutely perfect. Tell me when is the designer's fitting appointment scheduled. I'll come for the fitting of her gown. Alright, I will leave now and come again on her next shoot. Give me her full schedule."

Kay nodded although he was confused with Bernard's behavior. He was not the type who would be interested in a woman, especially a married one.

However, they managed a lot of beautiful talents but he was not as hands on like this ever, unlike with Arya.

Kay shook his head. He must be thinking too much… It's probably because Arya was a new talent that they will introduce immediately.

Maybe, Bernard just wanted to make sure that the risk they were taking for bringing Arya was worth it.

Besides, he wanted someone new, a fresh face, to introduce for the most expensive drama he was producing right now so it was obvious for him to take a keen interest in her acting and also be involved in all her promotions for the sake of making his drama successful.

After all it was the biggest project Bernard's company was producing.
