When I Loved You Chapter 149

Muyeol stepped in between them. “Stop it now. Unless you want to get embarrassed in front of those people you go to the social club with.”

“It would be you who would get embarrassed. As the person renowned for the increase in share price and reputed as the next CEO, you have more to lose than me if you get exposed as an immoral person.” Mr. Cha laughed loudly before turning to Yiyoung. “Don't you agree with me, Mrs. Yoon Yiyoung?”

Yiyoung simply smiled at him. So Mr. Cha pretended to be gracious and said, “So, do you like your current lifestyle compared to when you used to work in the ER? When else would you ever get to travel like this without worrying about money, right? Are you going to have a child, too? My first son is good for nothing, and my other son is a b**tard. The bloodline would get all dirty… Wouldn't hemodialysis be necessary? Do you think you could do that yourself?”

As Mr. Cha kept laughing and calling Muyeol a b**tard, Yiyoung couldn't restrain herself anymore. So she warmly said, “I can't believe you are talking about morality when you're the one calling him a b**tard. I guess you can't see what's happening because you don't seem to care about what you're actually saying. You must have a strong gut, if you're able to stomach saying things like this.”

“What did you just say?” Mr. Cha was no longer laughing. He revealed his true face: an ignoble, brutal, and mean appearance.

Yiyoung smiled instead of responding. She'd immediately understood that Mr. Cha was using the chance to embarrass Muyeol in front of her. She quickly contemplated what she should do in such a situation.

“I didn't pay attention to you because you were nothing, but even you can bite people, huh?” Mr. Cha seethed, “What other skills do you have? How dare you dream to be a part of my family? You're an orphan, and your job isn't good either. Do you want to be Cinderella or something? Is this the only way for you to change your status?”

Muyeol couldn't keep his cool any longer. So far, no matter what Mr. Cha did to him, Muyeol had never been shaken. But this time, his hand moved before he could even think.

However, Yiyoung quickly pulled Muyeol's hand into a firm grip before addressing Mr. Cha in a friendly manner, “One side of your mouth and one of your eyes is lower than the other. That's not a good sign.”

“What?”

“When you were approaching me, I noticed that the movement of your fingers was different when you were moving toward the left compared with when you were moving toward the right. Have you experienced any dizziness, or had a hard time speaking clearly?”

“What are you even talking about right now?”

“Mr. Cha, it's not right for you to travel right now.”

“What did you just say?”

“You need to go to a hospital and get yourself examined. It seems like you're experiencing symptoms of cerebral infarction. When it hits the left side of your brain, the right side of your body will become paralyzed, and you'll suffer from language, sensory, and intellectual impairment. When it hits the right side, your left side will become paralyzed, and you'll suffer from impairment in depth perception, along with aphasia.”

Startled by Yiyoung's unexpected advice, Mr. Cha was at a loss on what to do. He'd been expecting her to argue with him, or act like she was emotionally hurt, or do anything that would end up making people hate her. But there she was, diagnosing him instead.

“It's always best to prevent the disease than try curing it later,” Yiyoung continued, “If you really can't cancel the trip, then please don't drink or smoke. You need to reduce the amount of sodium in your diet, starting now. You can't exercise too much either. Instead, you should walk slowly, as if you're walking for leisure.”

Muyeol stared at Yiyoung, able to sense that inner strength of hers which no one could handle. Except, Yiyoung didn't use this strength to crush anyone.
