Chapter 32: Making Things Up to Mommy

Alex woke up the next morning, and judging by the expression on Chae-Yeong's face, she was not exactly pleased with him after the shit he had pulled the previous day. In fact, she was deliberately giving him the silent treatment all morning.

After all, Min-Ah and her elder sister were not present for yesterday's festivities, and thus they were not aware of what Alex had done, or why their mother was upset at him. They were busy showing off Alex's penthouse to their friends, and had missed the party entirely.

Determined not to let this awkwardness continue between himself and his loved ones, Alex proposed a crazy idea to his stepmother, one which he was sure would cause the woman to take the bait.
