30 Proof

Aera made an offer, stopping Kiaraa in her tracks.

"I'll ensure to transfer Lee Conglomerate to you if you promise to divorce your husband" 

Aera didn't dare to call Song Ji Hun by his name, as she didn't wish to provoke Kiaraa. She wanted to handle her sister carefully.

Kiaraa looked at Aera in surprise, "Really? You will ensure I would have Lee Conglomerate, if I divorce Ji Hun?" 

"Yes, I will" Aera felt happy as she successfully ignited Kiaraa's interest.

She was happy seeing her plan work.

"Really Aera, can you really ensure this?" Kiaraa hopefully asked.

"Yes, Kiaraa, I will" Aera could see a glimpse of hope.

"Hahahaha" 

The next second, Kiaraa laughed loudly as if she heard a joke, "You couldn't even convince grandpa to give yourself the whole rights on the company but you will ensure, to transfer the conglomerate on my name?"

Kiaraa asked Aera while laughing loudly, "Awe, my baby sis is so cute" Kiaraa pulled Aera's cheeks and continued laughing.

"Once I prove my capabilities, Lee Conglomerate is going to be mine" Aera was offended to see Kiaraa condescendingly laugh at her, so she challenged her.

Kiaraa laughed harder holding her stomach, "Oh goodness, Aera, please stop joking, I can't handle this anymore" 

"Enough Kiaraa, it is not funny" Aera shouted at the woman, who didn't leave any chance of insulting her.

"You sure? A dumb model like you really thinks she can handle our industries? You realize right Lee Conglomerate doesn't handle one sector but is the leader in multiple sectors?" Kiaraa stopped laughing and turned serious.

"Also, you remember, grandpa asked me to train you?" Kiaraa added.

"I…"

"Lee Aera, Song Ji Hun is mine and so will be the Lee Conglomerate. To hell with that silly deal and to hell with grandpa's decision of making you the CEO." Kiaraa was not in the mood to continue her discussion, so she said what she intended to say all along.

"You can't have both, Kiaraa" Aera clenched her fist in anger.

Kiaraa stepped towards her sister, and looked into her eyes, "What will you do even if I have both?" Kiaraa glanced at Aera's fists and smirked.

Kiaraa leaned closer to her sister and slowly whispered, "You will again try to kill me like you did four months ago?" 

Aera was shaken when she heard Kiaraa's question, her eyes widened in shock.

"You wasted your Hundred Million Won once, want to waste the same amount again?" Kiaraa threw another bombshell on Aera.

"I have the proof that you were the one, who tried to kill me." Kiaraa tucked the few hair strands, falling on Aera's face behind her ear, "If you try to eye my man or my business, I'll put you behind the bars. Don't you dare, mess with me"

Kiaraa walked away with a huge smile on her face, after warning Aera, who was still standing rooted at her spot, in shock.

'How the hell did she find out? How could she know I paid Hundred Million Won to that man? Did he betray me?' Aera got scared with Kiaraa's words still ringing in her ears.

Her hands were shaking and trembling in fear when she took out her phone.

She found the number of the man, she hired to kill Kiaraa and called him again for the second time, today.

Within two rings, the call was answered.

"I didn't expect to have the honour of receiving Ms Lee's call twice in one day" The man from the other end greeted her.

"Who all know that I hired you to kill Kiaraa?" Aera directly came on point, trying to control the obvious quiver rising in her voice.

"What? What do you mean?" The man asked in surprise.

"Kiaraa, just told me she has the proof that I paid you Hundred Million Won to kill her. How the hell does she know all of this? Did you betray me?" Aera shouted at him but was also careful of her surroundings.

The man was speechless, and had no idea, what to say, "Kiaraa, herself told you this?"

"Yes"

"I never told anyone, keeping our client's identity and intention confidential is our first rule. The information didn't leak from my end, maybe it did from yours" The man confidently said.

Aera cut-off the call, in frustration, 'Is she the one, who betrayed me?' Aera wondered thinking about the only person, other than her, who was aware of this plan.

The man, Aera just spoke to on the call, ran his hand through his hair, in confusion. He didn't expect things to turn out like this

"Is Aera, telling me the truth?" He wondered muttering to himself, then he saw Kiaraa enter the farmhouse, so he quickly rushed towards her.

"You revealed to Aera that you have proof against her about her attempt to kill you?" Ian asked her almost in a whisper.
