[2] The Second Love || PJ&RP

CHAPTER 355: Chen Sunhong

Chen Mina hung her head low to the passing photos Rosè Han placed in front of her. However, her eyes at this moment remained lock on the last one.

It was a photo unlike the rest.

She was not in this photo, nor were any of the people she had an affair with.

In this photo, one can see a handsome young man with neatly combed brown hair sitting on a bench outside. Even if it was only the photo, you can see the kindness in his eyes and his smile that can melt anyone's heart.

Chen Mina inhales a mouthful of air that made her body shook and stretch her trembling hand to touch the photo as the tears she fought so hard back slips down her cheeks.

How long has it been since she last saw a photo of his face?

Her only and older brother, Chen Sunhong.

However, before Chen Mina's trembling hand could touch the photo, it was snatched away as Rosè Han stood up.

Rosè Han stares down emtionlessly at the crying woman. The color of bluish green eyes seemed to have darken as the aura around her gave the feeling of no sympathy.

"You have no rights to cry for someone you murdered."

"I...I..."

Hearing those words, Chen Mina's perfect CEO image is ripped off and her quiet sobs turned into loud wails. She shakes her head and clutch her chest as if her heart was going to explode.

"I didn't murder him... wuuu... I didn't... wuuu... I didn't mean to..."

Watching the woman cry like a mother who had lost her child, Rosè Han slowly close her eyes and inhales a quiet deep breath.

When she first started ML, she had chosen someone with a pure heart who would not scheme just to get things done and that person was Chen Mina's only and older brother, Chen Sunhong.

She had met him the same time she met Jeon Jungkook when she was studying abroad. Due to her complicated life, he took on the role as CEO and maintained the growth of ML in her place and followed her given instructions.

Never once did he go behind her back.

However, who would have known that someone was slowly poisoning him every day. Through their chats, whether it was over the phone or in person, he had always kept a smile for her, until he was on his deathbed.

Only then did she receive his letter in America and found out about the poisoning.

In his letter, he had long known who was slowly killing him and said to forgive the person. When she came to see him, fate had already taken him.

Thinking of a good friend who passed away young, Rosè Han's heart ache for him.

As her eyes slowly open and every ounce of sympathy in her disappears with only coldness shown.

For what Chen Mina did, she must pay the price.

"You poisoned him every day until he took his last breath. All because you wanted the position he had!"

"NO!!"

Chen Mina screams back without a care that her eyeliner and mascara had smeared with her tears. She hits her chest to calm her aching heart and shook her head.

"I didn't mean to... I thought by doing it that way, he would give up the seat to me..."

Standing at the side, Jeon Jungkook stares at the tearful woman with disgust written all over his face. Even if she had no intentions of murdering her own brother, she shouldn't have done it in the first place. Only a person with a pure evil heart would think of such thing.

This was also the reason why he wanted to take down Chen Mina so badly. He couldn't wait until the day he sees her so called perfect little life crumbles.

Chen Sunhong was not only a friend to him but a sworn brother. Even if Chen Mina was the sister of his dear friend, for what she did, she can't even be consider human.

Rosè Han looks down at the woman and thinking about her deceased friend's last words in his letter, she decided she had wasted enough time here.

"I will not hold you accountable for all your bribery and blackmailing, but I will hold you accountable for the death of Chen Sunhong."

Her words fell like another wave of thunder in the sky. She turns away and walks toward the door.

"Stop—!!"

Just when Rosè Han reached the door, Chen Mina yells out to her. She wipes away the tears and stumble up with a maniac smile.

"You think the world will believe you that I murdered my own brother? All this, all these photos, who will believe you?"

Rosè Han stood in front of the door as her hand touched the door handle. However, listening to Chen Mina's words, she does not open the door nor turn to look at the woman.

"You should be grateful that I respect Chen Sunhong. If not for the friendship I have with him, I would have exposed your crimes in front of the entire world. Whether this will keep you in your position or not, you should know better than anyone."

Her head slightly turn, but only enough for Chen Mina to see the side of her face.

"Like how you planted a mole inside De L'amour, I also planted one by your side."

Without waiting for a response or to see her reaction, Rosè Han pulls open the door and walks out of the room.

Following after, Jeon Jungkook snorts in disgust at Chen Mina and exits the room.

As the figures of the boss and assistant disappear, Chen Mina stood unmoving from the spot she was in. Her mind at this moment was focused on Rosè Han's last words.

Rosè Han knows about her and Lim Zoe's schemes.

She looks down at the scattered documents and photos on the floor.

How could Rosè Han plant a mole inside ML without her knowing?

Everyone working inside ML are loyal to her and follows her orders, so...

The moment she thought this, the sound of footsteps echoes into the room and she looks up at the unknown person. However, when she saw the person, she was dumbfounded with widen eyes in disbelief.

Out of everyone, she trusted this person the most. Everything she did, this person was always there to witness it all.

Feeling betrayed, Chen Mina points her index finger at the person.

"You traitor!!!"

"Miss Chen."

"You are my assistant! How could you do this to me?!"

"Ex-assistant."

The woman who was once Chen Mina's assistant stood in front of the door. Her eyes slowly blink and she takes a step forward.

"In breaching the contract with De L'amour, your position in ML has been revoke."

She calmly bows a polite gesture and turns to leave without saying another word as two men in security uniform enters the room.
