When I Loved You Chapter 124

It happened in a flash; Muyeol grabbed Jaeho by the collar and started dragging him away. Muyeol was strong enough to drag him to the nearby emergency exit, and Jaeho could do nothing but stagger after.

“What do you want?” Muyeol snarled.

Jaeho responded with a pitiful look, “I want to go home. I know what I messed up this time. Even if it's you who closes the contract with them, I still want to go home and share the credit with you.”

“After committing such a crime?”

“To be exact, I was deceived, too. She agreed to being drugged, but after she got caught, she blamed it all on me! Didn't you read the investigation report?” Jaeho continued giving out excuses, “And Gong Heesu said that I assaulted her, but she slapped my face first. She was just like her father, so physically violent. I just gave her what she deserved,”

Though he kept a blank face, Muyeol grabbed Jaeho's collar even harder. He stared into Jaeho's eyes directly, directing more strength into his hand to choke him.

Jaeho's face began turning red, and he wondered whether Muyeol was trying to kill him. He couldn't breathe properly. But then he remembered how much he'd suffered in the past few days because of Mr. Cha.

Jaeho knew there was no way Mr. Cha would forgive him. Even demoting him would not suffice for Mr. Cha. So he hid in Turkey, but then Mr. Cha had sent someone to search for him.

Despite his frantic attempts to avoid getting caught, Jaeho had eventually gotten captured. According to the person who'd caught him, Mr. Cha had commanded him to turn Jaeho into a proper human being using any conceivable methods. So they locked him up and beat him up.

It had been so dreadful that Jaeho wanted to kill himself. Those men never disregarded the instructions given to them, despite Jaeho's desperate attempts to persuade them to stop.

He'd felt like he would lose his mind if he continued to be locked up like that. And if they took him to Mr. Cha, he would have become mentally ill. Then, he'd heard that Muyeol was in Istanbul, and knew that it was his last hope. Jaeho had barely managed to gain freedom, and came all the way just to see Muyeol.

Though he was being choked, Jaeho laughed like a madman. “Send me to the USA. Once I get there, I'll go into rehab and get treated. I'll live like I don't even exist. I know that I can't compete against you anyway, and besides, I'm sick of our father.”

Muyeol saw right through Jaeho's laugh with his bright yet cold eyes. Jaeho was acting differently today, and Muyeol could tell he was in great fear.

“If I get caught by my father, I'll be turned into his puppet,” Jaeho said with a sarcastic smile.

He'd pretended to still be in control by putting on a smile, but Jaeho's voice was slightly trembling.

Muyeol looked at Jaeho's face and clothes, then scoffed. He could see the bruise despite Jaeho's best attempts to hide it under the collar. And that was enough to tell him that Mr. Cha was truly upset this time. Also, Jaeho always wore clothes from high-end brands, unlike his current state; his shoes looked scruffy, as if he'd bolted from somewhere in a hurry.

Muyeol immediately knew what it indicated; Mr. Cha had sent some people out. Jaeho had caused troubles in the past, but it was bad to a whole new level this time. And Mr. Cha was even more upset because he'd brought Jaeho back specifically to stop Muyeol from gaining more power. So Jaeho's mistake was unacceptable to Mr. Cha.

Most people were expecting Muyeol to win the competition at next year's stockholders' meeting. And there were only six month left till the event. People tended to pursue their own gains and calculate who would benefit them the most, and from their perspective, Muyeol successfully negotiating the contract would give them the precious chance to bag something big. His young age and ambition would only support him further.
