85 24-hour downfall

"hello?!" Calin annoyingly answered the call, not minding the callers identity.

"yah~ its me!" a cheerful voice spoke.

"Im sorry?! who is this?!"

"tsk, tsk~ i gave you the chance to save yourself but as expected you really love basking in the limelight."

"what nonsense are you spouting! you got the wrong no.! dont waste my time!" Calin angrily replied.

"well, I applaud you for sticking with your family even at hard times...goodluck at prison." the voice taunted.

she was about to drop the call when the callers voice suddenly ring a bell to her. "you- is this Tristan?!"

Tristan did not respond and just waited for Calin to rant, as expected, Calin did not failed him. "Tristan do you think im dumb?! hah! i am not scared of you and Shin at all! you should have stopped Shin from making a fool out of himself now!"

"hmm? but you are dumb...Im really curious, who gave you the courage to continue with your public drama when your father can't help you anyway?"

Calin's expression stiffened, she recalled her mother's distraught face earlier, did something happened to her father? or Tristan is just playing with her?

"Im done listening to your nonsense! my father isn't that easy to threaten either!" Calin suppresed any negative thoughts and raised her voice.

"ahhh...so you dont know? how surprising."

"why don't you just go straight to the point?! Tristan do you like me that much as to make this rubbish excuse just to hear my voice?"

"whoa! now thats creepy but since im bored ill tell you... Saeki family filed a legal action against your father and he was arrested earlier. I guess from there you should already know what follows..." Tristan nonchalantly said.

Calin's eyes widened and her heart pounded uncontrollably, prank or not, Tristan successfully manage to taunt her! she wasn't born yesterday not to realize the domino effect this news will cause her.

If her father is up against the Saeki family then its highly possible the Keirs won't bother helping her with her case, afterall the two noble families built a strong business relationship for decades, once the Keirs denied the arrange marriage then she would be the publics laughing stock!

"your lying! a-and even if its true, my fathers case has nothing to do with me." Calin tried to suppresed her fear but her voice betrayed her.

"exactly, nothing to do with you...but without anyone justifying your press interview, who will believe you now?"

Calin felt a splitting headache and her body trembled from a sudden realization, yesterday night, she woke up still at K.V empire building and saw Tristan with another man, possibly a doctor.

Tristan didn't gave her a hard time and just simply asked her to forget what happened that day, although she didnt expect they would let her go just like that, she immediately agreed to get away but now she's doubtful if it was that easy!

It was a bait! he knew she would definitely retaliate so they already set-up a trap.

Why would the Saeki's chose this time to sue her father when it would attract the publics attention with her case? they always settle their matters privately compared to the Keirs who were always hounded by the press.

"you tricked me! even if i kept my word, you people will still harrass me! the cctv wont lie! i will exposed all of you!!!" Calin yelled hysterically.

"including yourself? did you forgot your actions that time? at the very least, you could have save yourself from public scandal if you just heed my advice yesterday, Shin was really planning to leave you alone thanks to his wifey's request."

"liar! like hell i'll believe that! if i will have another chance ill kill that bitch! dont think you can bring me down easily!" Calin shouted in fury and carelessly hurled her phone against the wall, she continuously scream to vent out her anger that her servant outside didn't dare to see her condition.

.....

Before nightfall, Calin's fear started to arise, the media pounded onto her father's case like hungry vultures and within the same day their family were put in a state of hysteria.

To make the matters worst, no one from the Keirs confirmed the arrange marriage.

Unbeknownst to Calin, Madam Keir was also in disbelief about the lawsuit between the Saeki's and her father; however to play it safe, she didn't think twice to abandon Calin's case.

Madam Keir's weakness is losing her status and ruining her reputation, she would obviously side with the Saeki family who is their major contributor and business partner.

Elli Keir who is also ambushed by the media refused to comment on the issue, he already failed his attempt to usurped the CEO position, he can't risked to incite the wrong people.

As the public feasted on the Wang's 24-hour downfall, some people also took this opportunity to take revenge, afterall the world of elite is like a competition and the Wang's oppressed a lot of them.

[In my opinion there was really no arrange marriage between Shin and Calin, my family attended the banquet of the Keir family matriarch and there was no announcement of the engagement at all.]

[exactly, CEO Keir and Calin were at the banquet but i never saw them talked to each other the entire time.]

[hey everyone! i worked with K.V empire for more than 5 years now and its a known rule that CEO Keir doesn't let any woman to his office, i highly doubt Calin's press statement about her assault.]

[I was the receptionist on duty yesterday, Calin don't have an appoinment with the CEO yet she was so mean and demanding to me! so much for being pure and innocent, she's a fake!]

...more and more people stated their standpoint over social media that even Calin's die hard fans were unable to fight back, her public image that she carefully protected over the years is now shattered and harshly ridiculed.

At the end of the day, the latest news about Calin is when she tried to commit suicide after refusing the arrest warrant from the police.
