CHAPTER 33
“Older sister, I won the bet, my money!… Hahaha!”
Brian’s joy rubbed off on Pink as she chuckled. “Agreement is an agreement. I’ll send the $20,000 now.”
After the competition ended, Brian and Pink were about to leave when the organizers called them into a private room.
Sitting in front of two men and one woman, Pink looked quite bored, so Brian hastened the meeting.
“We never expected that the competition would get the popularity that it had today. We realized too late that it was your doing, which was why we gave you two some screen time. However, we know that it’s not enough, so for that, we thought of asking you to be the ambassador of–”
“I’m sorry, we only came here to enjoy the sport which we did. It was pure coincidence that my fans saw me and blew up the event that it became so big…”
“Still, we want to reward you,” the woman spoke.
Brian shook his head, “My fans should be getting the reward, not me… besides, I’m taking a rest from work, so I can’t do anything for you.”
“Ok, that’s fine. How do we contact your fans?”
“My fans have an official group. I can help you drop a message, and the admins will come to you,” seeing them nod, Brian brought out his phone and sent a message to the admins of his fan club.

A few seconds later, his phone exploded with messages from the overwhelmed fans. Ever since his account was added to the club, Brian had never sent them a message or replied to any message before that they all thought he wasn’t interested in the club, but seeing his message now, the guys went crazy with excitement.
“I’ve done that, they’ll be at your company in two days,” he said.
“In two days? Why not schedule it for tomorrow?”
Brian shook his head, “My fans are human with lives to live. The admins I chatted with said they’ll be available tomorrow, so I can’t force them to ruin their schedule. It might affect their lives negatively.”
Brian lied when he said that. When he asked the admins when they’ll be able to visit the organizer’s company, they told him they could go anytime.
It is obvious Brian is presenting his fans as people with dignity that aren’t
“Now, that is settled. We still wish to do something for you, Mr. Brian. Thanks to your presence and your fans‘ contribution, this event hit an unimaginable height. We never thought that there’d ever be a time where our car racing event would ever witness hundreds of millions of live streaming and see hundreds of thousands of audience in the stadium,” one of the organizers said with emotions lacing his tone.
This was their family business that was going downhill. They organized this competition as the last resort to pull in one or two investors, or else they go bankrupt. Who would have known that Brian’s appearance would make them a massive fortune?
As it stands now, they’ll be one of the biggest in the car racing industry after today.
“Anything aside from being an ambassador will be enough,” Pink finally spoke. She could see that her son was not interested in working for them. Although it’s a giant leap for his career if he agrees to be an ambassador for a car/company, she can’t get involved in his decision.
“Ok, how about gifting you one of our latest sports cars?” the woman suggested.
Brian looked at Pink, “What do you think?” seeing Pink nod, Brian smiled, “that’s much better,” he agreed.
The organizers were relieved when Brian finally accepted. But before Brian left with the car, they brought up the idea of an ambassador again..
“If you ever change your mind, we will be honored to make provisions for you.”
Standing by the door, Brian paused and said, “Should I recommend you another Celebrity who will do a better job than me?”
The organizers were excited and immediately agreed.
“Jeslyn.”
The organizers were stunned. Jeslyn? They know who Jeslyn is. Although she has attained the A–list role, she’s still a newbie.
“Why do you recommend her?” the woman asked.
Without wasting time thinking, Brian responded, “If you find me good, she’s better…”
“Anything else you’d like to convince us with?”
“Men love the sport more and your audience should be men. Jeslyn is beautiful, and she’s known to attract both men and women. As a singer, she has the highest number of male fans in the industry. What would happen if she became an ambassador for a male–dominated sport? Think.” With that, he walked away.
After Brian left, the organizers discussed among themselves and decided to hold a board meeting to iron the matter out before making a decision.
It was night time and still, Brian and Pink were seen at a karaoke bar, having fun. The two would be rather seen as happy siblings than friends or mother and son.

After singing, they sat on a long couch and resumed drinking.
“It’s late, you don’t want to return home?”
Brian, who was a little tipsy, shook his head. “I don’t want to.”
“Your parents will be worried,” Pink didn’t want him to go either, but she couldn’t just take a huge step that would ruin her plans.
“Worried? They know I’m safe in the City. They have guards lurking around me like flies. I can’t take a step without being watched, and it’s tiring,” he said sadly and drank from his bottle.
“You don’t like being with them?”
“My dad is great, but he seems to be scared of my mom. I want to live without that woman, but I can’t.”
“Why? You can make your decisions, right? You’re her only son.”
Brian shook his head, “She’s overprotective and can be evil sometimes.”
“Then how did you escape from her to live in the Capital for so many years?”
“I don’t know what Dad did, so Mom allowed me to live with her stepsister, the First Lady. I wanted freedom from everyone and everything, so I threatened to take my own life a few times. I bet that was my mother’s weakness.
“When she was told that I almost took my own life, she agreed to what I wanted, but with the condition that I must not live like a poor person. I agreed and was sent to the school for Elites, where I met Piper and Feng Long.
“My identity was hidden, so they didn’t know who I was. With those two in my life, I tasted real happiness for a few years until Piper and Feng Long broke my heart.
“Even so, I didn’t stop loving Piper. She became an actress, and I became her top fan. I promoted her movies and pulled strings to make her the top actress without her knowing. When Feng Long chose to be with her by also going into acting, that–was–when I made up my mind to follow.
“I couldn’t sit back and watch Feng Long steal my woman, so I made a deal with my mother, who was angry that I wanted to do what she hated.”
“What was the deal about?”
“I told her I wanted to go into acting, but she blatantly refused. Dad spoke to her but she didn’t budge either. Then, she gave me a condition that I must never threaten to kill myself ever again, and in the futáre, she’d ask me for something I can never refuse
“So you agreed.”
“Yes, I did.” Brian took another sip and chuckled. “Even if I knew what she wanted, I would have still agreed… Being an actor and a singer brought me quite some happiness. It was also that time I found Jeslyn, so I became her online stalker.
“When I started following Jeslyn, that was when I had the mind to bully Piper and Feng Long. It was fun watching their devastation but seeing Piper looking helpless all the time made me feel horrible. Still, whenever I saw the happy Jeslyn behaving childishly and cluelessly on TV, it brought a smile to my face.
“Fate brought Jeslyn to my Agency, and then I thought I should see if she could erase Piper from my heart, but then I realized I didn’t love Jeslyn the same way I loved Piper.
“Long story short, Feng Long brought Piper and me back together, but my Mom was irritated by that idea. She threatened to kill Piper if I didn’t return, and I know she’s more than capable of doing so.
“When I returned to the City, my mom locked away my people in the dungeon and introduced her friend’s daughter to me, saying it was the deal we made.
“At first, I fought against it. But knowing that if I gave her too much resistance, she’d go behind me and harm Piper or Jeslyn, I pretended to agree. Tomorrow is the date. I hope I can make her understand so she’d be the one to tell her people she’s not interested in me.”
Pink blew out air from her pursed lips to suppress her heartache. Her children have suffered so much while she’s still alive.
‘Nancy!‘ her hold on her wine bottle tightened. She is enraged and just wants to kill that evil woman. However, just because she wants to doesn’t mean she can.
Pink watched Brian fall asleep, before she could carry him, some men in black barged into the private room.
“Hand the young Master over, we are sending him home,” one of them declared.
“Who are you?”
“We are his shadow guards,” the person speaking brought out a card and showed it to Pink before she allowed them to carry him home,
Pink followed them out of the karaoke and watched them leave in the Hwang family’s car before she left.
Brian’s identity is hidden for fear that he might be harmed by enemies. The world knows that Mr. and Mrs. Hwang has a son, but only a few know who the child is.
The world can tumble, but touching Brian will drive Nancy crazy and probably cause the whole country to burn.
Her excuse is that she loves him a lot, but the main reason is to watch Hwang Min suffer at her hands daily.
The look of helplessness, the struggle to hold himself back from hurting her, and the title of being his wife are why Nancy is still living.
She married the man she adorned with all of her heart, but the man hates her with so much passion that if he were told to choose between her and his worst enemy, Hwang Min would choose that person over her.
Nancy was convinced that Hwang Min would hurt her. She believed that she should be the one punishing him every day for being disloyal to her and not the other way around.
What wrong did she commit? She and Hwang Min were in love, and everyone knew they’d get married, but all of a sudden, he broke up with her, and when she checked, he was going out with a lady from the Half–heart organization!
How could he? Without warning, she went after Alex’s life, but that stubborn bull couldn’t be killed, so she resorted to using her power to force them to break up.
After she and Hwang Min got married, the evil man refused to have anything to do with her, not excluding sleeping with her! Even when she drugs him, somehow, he’d know it was her and would rather suffer through the effect of the drugs than touch her.
When she heard that Alex was pregnant for him, she wanted to kill the baby, but another thought came to mind. She pretended to be pregnant, which almost made Hwang Min commit suicide. How could a husband be so hard on his wife? Nancy’s heart hardened, and after Nine months, it was also the exact month Alex put to bed, so she made arrangements and took the male child away.
As Brian grew, she realized that Hwang Min loved the child wholeheartedly but still hated one, but one thing was different. Because she was the ‘mother of his son, Hwang Min became more lenient with her, but that didn’t stop her from preparing herself against a surprise attack.
