The CEO Who Hates Me

Ryu stared at the life size ancient painting of a king and a queen, clad n in a formal traditional historical attire, hung on the wall in a golden frame before his eyes as he murmured, "A ruler who stood his stand of marrying only one woman. Isn’t he impressive? A lot of rulers had many concubines or wives in those times..."

Ryu heard a crispy laugh beside him with comments, "Aren’t you proud to be a descendant of a legendary ruler? The great Yao Yuren..."

Ryu was at the Museum where their family ancestors artifacts and collections were displayed. Ryu looked at Liam and said, "Are you proud Bro? By the way thanks a lot for helping Big Bro Shawn in his case. As expected, it’s just a piece of cake for you."

"Nah, it’s nothing. But I was shocked to find out that I have one more cousin but it’s great that the secret was spilled out and we have one more addition to the descendants for the Legendary Yuren Yao." replied Liam with a smile.

Liam Sy, was Ryu’s cousin from his mother’s side.. He was a well known Lawyer and the best in the league.

After all that happened with Ken Family, they remained quiet for some time and arranged various things discreetly. When Ryu woke up from coma, Arya told him that Liam had helped his brother Shawn and grandfather with the family’s legal matters after everything that happened, including the formal announcement of Shawn’s identity as a Ken and to legally add him to be a part of the Ken Family. Liam also handled all Shawn’s cases and got all judgements in favour, including the ones with his involvement in the underworld, in one swift motion of success.

"Well of course I am proud. Our Yuren was a sage-Prince and had became the Emperor with high morals and intelligence. I’m more like him don’t you think? Except I rule inside the courtroom and not a country I guess." Liam boastfully said grinning.

Then his expression changed and became serious when his eyes shifted at the woman beside Emperor Yao Yuren and said, "Empress Wei Xianyi though is very lucky to find a loyal husband like him. These days, it is rare to find a loyal partner I guess..."

"Are you still such a woman hater? For goodness sake Liam... Stop sulking. Life is short so better live it to the fullest dear cousin," Ryu exclaimed with a tap on Liam’s shoulder.

"You did hate your wife once too right?" Liam mumbled. Ryu chuckled and said, "Well, that was why it is said that there’s a very thin line between hate and love, Liam, and at the end people will always choose to be on the side where there is love on that line because love always overpowers hate. Even me, as soon as I saw Arya again, the love in my heart conquered all my hate and I am happily married with Arya waiting for our child to be born."

Liam’s face crumpled as he complained, "Oh no! You lovestruck people! You are all the same. Sorry but I’m happy and contented with my life alone. Why would I need complications in my life? No thanks Bro! I’ll go ahead before I vomit hearing lovestruck quotes from you..."
