45 The truth about Colin Zhi

"and what will you gain from this? what's the other end of the deal?" Yeri asked.

Tristan gave her a meaningful smile.

"can i refuse?" Yeri arched an eyebrow.

"are you sure?...you will still do it anyway even without the deal.", Tristan smiled deviously and pulled up his laptop. "do you know why your brother is out of the country for the past 3 years?"

Yeri frowned, what's this got to do with his brother?. She can't helped but be wary, unlike Shin who is always straightforward with his thoughts and actions towards her, Tristan is like a minesweeper game, either you resolve his nonsense or get bombed.

"read it." Tristan handed his laptop, not waiting for her response.

Yeri took the laptop and just read whatever is in there, in a mere minute her facial expression turned complex, "this is a lie..." she muttered.

"you think so?...3 years ago, your brother Colin Zhi met Calin Wang in some kind of event gathering. I must say, perfect genes is really hereditary eh?, your brother looks like a male version of you, it's no surprise that Calin was charmed by him. Too bad for her your brother also inherited that 'iceberg manner' of your father and was rejected harshly. Of course, her pride couldn't take it, she's a narcissist afterall. It's unfortunate that she came from a prominent family... exacting her revenge to your brother is child's play." Tristan paused, based from Yeri's expression, his nowcertain she really have no idea that it happened.

"sexual harassment, attempted ****, illegal possession and drug trafficking...those were the accusations subjected to your brother by the Wang's. More than anyone, your father clearly know the outcome, so his only feasible option left is for your brother to escape then used some hush money to keep this from blowing up. I have to hand it to your father though, it's still a mystery to me how he manage to stay afloat all this time despite going against the Wang's. Afterall, these people aren't the merciful type, they don't settle for less."

"this is not real! my brother is out of the country for business" Yeri insisted.

"you dont have to believe it Sheri, you can actually ask your parents but i highly doubt they will tell you since they kept this a secret all this time." Tristan smiled. "your their beloved princess afterall, there just probably worried it will implicate you"

Yeri still felt doubtful, there's no way her parents would hide something this important.

"I won't force you to accept the deal, you can very well deal with that woman yourself but dont forget she have a strong backer, you will just repeat history itself if you offend her. However if you accept my deal, do whatever you want with Calin and ill take care of the aftermath. Also your brother can safely come back here in Sin city without any negative records or past staining his name. But of course, you can also cut to the chase, its just simple" Tristan smirked, "ask Shin, you don't even have to beg and all is done. It won't even take him a week...but where's the fun in that right?"

Yeri glared at him, "i still wanna know what you will gain out of this. Everything you said is just clearly for the benefit of me and Shin, i refused to believe your doing this out of brotherly love. So where do you stand in any part of this uncle?"

"hahahaha!" Tristan burst out laughing, "smart girl~ just call me Tristan or brother, i dont really mind"

"get to the point!" Yeri asked irritatingly.

"alright, first I don't like hurting women, i might just give her leniency" Tristan naughtily grinned.

Yeri rolled her eyes after hearing it. Such flowery words, how righteous!

"second, there's already more than enough snakes in our backyard to watch out, so why would i let another snake find it's way in? no matter how much it shed it's skin, its still a snake. Lastly, i've mentioned earlier that my hands are tied...there's just some pest I have to take care of, rather than wait, if you can help then why not take the precautions now? as the saying goes 'the enemy of your enemy is a friend" Tristan insinuated.

"so basically you just don't want a backstabber lurking around you and Shin?"

"you can say that", Tristan confirmed, leaving aside his other main reason- Yeri needed a strong backing to go against Calin, if she accept the deal or ask Shin instead, nonetheless, she will still owe him or Shin.

Before Yeri can respond, Tristan's phone ring.

"oh it's your evil boyfriend" Tristan looked at her teasingly and answered the phone. "hey, miss me already?"

"get.the.f*ck.out.in.there!" Shin fiercely said.

Tristan chuckled, "wow you know im here? that was fast! anyways, i just want to visit the damsel in distress. How could you be so heartless and leave her here alone, she seemed lonely."

"you have a minute" Shin replied in a menacing tone.

"hmm? by the way she said that I'm handsome hehe~ im so proud of myself!" Tristan said in a playful manner.

Yeri furiously looked at Tristan as if she wanted to slash out his tongue. why must he agitate the crazy jerk?! what could be more worst than prison if the jerk go berserk.
