The Love That Remains 73 I Can Tell You Your Future

"Park Inha, You are fired!"

A horrifying silence descends in the hall. All the eyes are fixed on Park Inha. What will she do?

"President, you cannot fire someone who is already not working for you." Park Inha is unfazed by Sung Ki-Woong's glare. "I already submitted my resignation letter in the council. I thought that you already knew, President."

"What?" Sung Ki-Woong is having a headache. How come he knows nothing?

"President, you know..." She shows him her engagement ring on her finger. "I am getting married next month. I want to be a happy housewife with three cute children after my wedding."

She winks at Sung Jun who only smiles back.

"You are the one who orchestrated this." Sung Ki-Woong suddenly starts feeling unwell. He checks his neck and finds a spirit collar around him. The spiritual energy is pure and strong. A king-ranked shaman?

"Yes, I did this." Sung Jun shrugs his shoulders. "I also put the spirit collar on your and your guests that you just noticed, President."

"What?" The guests start to check their necks for the spirit collars Does it mean that Sung Jun is a king-ranked shaman? Did they offend him?

A shaman's spirit collar is similar to a dog collar. The control of the collar is always on the shaman's hand. The shaman can also easily snap the neck if he is not happy.

"You are a king-ranked shaman and you didn't think that it was important to tell me?" Though Sung Ki-Woong is proud of his son achievement, he can't help but feel unhappy especially because of the spirit collar. Sung Jun is similar to his wife. He always has an almost smile on his face. Sung Ki-Woong can never read his son's or his wife's minds.

"It's my personal decision, President."

Sung Ki-Woong laughs and says, "Remove this collar now. I will forget this offence for once."

"Offense?" Sung Jun is smiling, but his tone is extremely cold. "Ah, right! Offence. The council and your guests are the ones who offended G.o.d's representative. The council and your guests offended the wife of a king-ranked shaman."

Fang Aisa squeezes his hand, slightly pulling him down to bring him closer. Sung Jun turns to look at her. His cold eyes are filled with warmth again when his eyes met hers.

"You are doing this for her?" Sung Ki-Woong points at Fang Aisa. "You are a king-ranked shaman. You are special, my son. You have proven it now. Becoming a king-ranked shaman in only eight years is impossible for an average human. You were born with a rare talent. I have always known this."

Sung Ki-Woong was just a knight-ranked shaman. He was already revered being in the supernatural world. Most creatures are afraid of him because of his rank. But a king-ranked shaman is an entirely different level.

"You don't deserve someone like this." Sung Ki-Woong takes a deep breath. "I am your father. I will never want to see you stand next to a vile and disgus-" The collar around his thick neck tightens. He chokes, shocked by Sung Jun's actions. The collar stops tightening around her neck.

"This is the only time that I will tolerate it." Sung Jun looks down at her father indifferently. Then, he glances at the trembling guests. Even Park Inha and Fang Aisa are surprised to see Sung Jun's actions toward his father. Only Ms Sung is the only one who is not surprised.

"You...to your father...for a woman..."

"She is not just any woman," He says in a clear voice. "She is my wife. I love her."

"You said that you love me." Fang Aisa mutters. "Finally, I hear you say that you love me."

Sung Jun can hear her clearly. He blinks in surprise. On the other hand, Park Inha is impatient. She finds the man she is going to marry. Though he is kneeling on the ground, his eyes are on her. She chuckles and goes to him. She pulls him up and kisses him in front of all the guests.

Even Sung Jun is surprised by her bold and random action.

"What? We are going to get married," She tells him loudly. "Remove this dog collar around his neck. Only I can put one on his neck, do you understand?"

Sung Jun flicks his finger. The collar is gone from the man's neck. The man shakes his head and laughs. "Wife of Sung Jun, thank you for taking his heart."

Park Inha and her fiance do not stay anymore. They leave while holding hands and whispering to each other.

"So, how are all going to compensate me and my wife?" Sung Jun crosses his arms and looks over everyone. "I will make it simple. We can do it in a hard and legal way. I am sure that you have heard of my reputation. You will never win. Even if I have to go to war, I will make sure that each one of you pays up."

"High Lord!" One of the guests stands up abruptly. "Take this gift. This is a rare treasure that can attenuate the negative energies. I am sure that it will be beneficial for the madam."

"Ah!" Sung Jun's eyes s.h.i.+ne like a cat who has seen a mouse. "That will do! That will do!"

After seeing the first guest, other guests also stand up with a treasure on their bodies or in secret pockets. Each one gives it to Sung Jun's wife who is staring at Sung Jun with a complicated expression. In a while, there is a pile of treasures next to Fang Aisa.

"Wife, are you happy?" Sung Jun asks her. "We are rich. We never have to work in our lives with these treasures. We can spend our time doing the fun stuff."

The guests haven't left the hall yet. They feel like their hearts are bleeding after being parted from their treasures. They will never ever be involved with this man again.

After the guests are gone, the last guest is a teenager dressed in black. She comes to Fang Aisa and says, "I don't have any treasure. I took part in the president's scheme because I was curious about you."

"That's alright...," Fang Aisa replies awkwardly. At the moment, she can't help but feel like she is the wife of a cheater.

"I can tell you your future." She looks into Fang Aisa's eyes.

"No, don't do it..." Sung Jun tries to pull Fang Aisa away from the girl, but a barrier appears around the girl and Fang Aisa. It burns Sung Jun's hands away.

"Don't go near the barrier!" Sung Ki-Woong yells. "She is not from this world. She is already an immortal."
