The Onizawa family remained oblivious to the imminent danger that loomed over them. The soft, cool breeze whispered through the gardens of their family mansion, casting an illusion of serenity over their lives. Yet, lurking in the shadows, a threat waited patiently for the opportune moment to envelop them in its ominous embrace.
Within the grand mansion, members of the Onizawa family convened in one of the most expansive rooms. Tension hung thick in the air, evident in the furrowed brows and concerned expressions of those assembled. The family's matriarch and patriarch, the pillars of the family fortune, occupied central seats, surrounded by other family members.
Miyuki's ex-husband, Takashi Onizawa, sat uncomfortably, his once-sterling reputation now tarnished by the scandals that had come to light. Beside him was his brother, equally affected by the recent revelations.
Their resolute sister, a woman of strong will, voiced her indignation at the situation, passionately discussing how they could mitigate the damage. Her husband, more composed and rational, sought practical solutions to regain the public's trust.
Takashi's ambitious and unscrupulous younger brother was also present, seemingly more focused on preserving his own position within the family than addressing the family's issues. His wife, equally ambitious, shared his concerns.
As the discussion unfolded, the atmosphere became charged with escalating tension and despair. The elderly grandparents observed in silence, recognizing that despite their advanced age, this crisis was one of the gravest they had ever confronted.
The Onizawa family slowly began to comprehend that the tempest was encroaching, threatening to envelop them in darkness. They struggled to find a path to preserve their position and reputation, yet the magnitude of the scandals that had emerged made the task daunting.
As they debated, desperate to find solutions, they remained oblivious to the cunning and resolute figure orchestrating the storm that menaced their downfall. The fate of the Onizawa family hung in the balance, and only time would reveal whether they would weather the storm or be swept away by its relentless fury.
Amid the impassioned arguments and heated debates, the Onizawa family faced a deadlock in their crisis. Amidst the chaos, individuals within the mansion were battling not only external forces but also each other. Accusations and shouts filled the meeting room as they searched for scapegoats, unaware that someone else was orchestrating events from the shadows.
Meanwhile, Liu Chen, from his concealed position, continued to disseminate damaging information about the Onizawa family. To him, this wasn't a battle against a formidable adversary; instead, it was a ruthless game where the pawns were being maneuvered to their doom. He harnessed his knowledge and strategies to sow discord and chaos within the Onizawa family, creating a dark curtain of deception and calumny that exacerbated their downward spiral.
Liu Chen regarded the Onizawa family as a vulnerable target on his path to winning Miyuki's affection. In his perception, the Onizawas were akin to puppets that he could manipulate to attain his objectives, regardless of how far they might fall.
The covert war waged in the shadows continued, while the Onizawa family descended into a state of chaos, unable to pinpoint responsibility for the multitude of crises they confronted. As they foundered and sought to unravel their predicament, their suppliers began to sever ties one by one, leading to a cascading effect.
One fateful day, as the Onizawa family was engaged in an impassioned dispute, unyielding and facing a growing impasse in their predicament, the mansion's situation was chaotic. Everyone sought to deflect blame and find solutions to the issues, but no one was prepared to accept culpability for their collapsing business empire and tarnished reputation.
The meeting room reverberated with screams and accusations as family members searched for scapegoats among themselves, oblivious to the unseen hand manipulating events.
In contrast, Liu Chen continued to advance his plot with calculated determination, further undermining the Onizawa family. In his view, they were not formidable adversaries but rather unwitting participants in a cruel game. He employed his knowledge and resources to exacerbate divisions and turmoil within the Onizawa family, weaving a web of lies and slander that deepened their woes.
As the war in the shadows raged on, Liu Chen capitalized on the chaos and disarray to sow further discord. Every move brought him closer to achieving his ultimate goal: securing Miyuki's love. His plan was advancing seamlessly, and with every pawn in place, he glimpsed the moment when Miyuki would officially become his wife. The trajectory he had initiated appeared unstoppable.
Two weeks passed, during which the Onizawa family's decline rapidly accelerated. One by one, investors withdrew, taking their funds with them and leaving the family in a precarious position. Protests and public criticism surged, further eroding the family's reputation.
The value of the Onizawa family's businesses plummeted, and their wealth dissipated swiftly. Conversely, in Liu Chen and Miyuki's world, everything proceeded smoothly. While Miyuki felt happy and grateful for Liu Chen's support, she also harbored a sense of sadness for the Onizawa family. Despite her kindness and compassion, she could not shield them from the impending doom.
Liu Chen, meanwhile, prepared for the final phase of his master plan. With every piece meticulously arranged, he knew that the culmination of his scheme was imminent. Revenge, carefully orchestrated, was reaching its apex, and the Onizawa family stood ensnared in his trap.
As night fell, Takashi, Miyuki's ex-husband, sped down a desolate road. Frustration and anger welled within him as he ruminated on the catastrophic state of his family's affairs. Approaching a dangerous curve, he attempted to brake, but a sense of panic seized him as he realized that his brakes were malfunctioning.
Desperately, he stomped on the brake pedal, but his attempts were futile. The curve drew nearer, and the wall at its end loomed ominously in his mind. With no means to halt his vehicle, reality collided violently as he crashed into the wall. The impact was brutal, the sound echoing through the lonely road.
As night settled over the scene of the accident, a car that had been following Takashi stopped nearby. From the vehicle emerged a confident and composed man, who approached the wreckage with measured steps. Peering inside the shattered car, he swiftly realized that Takashi, Miyuki's ex-husband, had perished on impact.
A wry smile touched the man's lips. It was Liu Chen, and this was the outcome he had orchestrated. He had chosen the location with great care, knowing that it was devoid of surveillance cameras. He was a master of strategy, and he left nothing to chance, orchestrating the climax of his plan.
The end was within reach, and he could envision the moment when Miyuki would officially become his wife. The deceased man before him appeared to evoke no emotion from Liu Chen, who returned to his car, leaving the scene as he advanced toward the culmination of his master plan.
Miyuki, going about her morning routine and preparing for work, turned on the television as usual. An unusual report immediately drew her attention: the news of her ex-husband Takashi's death. She was stunned, and a shiver coursed through her spine. Her mind raced, pondering whether Liu Chen could somehow be involved. Though Liu Chen had expressed his disdain for Takashi in the past, Miyuki had never fathomed that he would go to such extreme lengths. The news left her in a state of bewildered horror, and her mind was inundated with a barrage of unsettling questions.
I also apologize if the chapter is a bit short but tomorrow it's time to publish massively, so look forward to it.
Here I am going to clarify some doubt that may arise, although Liu Chen told Miyuki that he wanted to kill her ex-husband, Miyuki believed it was not literal, she thought that Liu Chen said that as a joke and in the heat of the moment, It's like when they say "I would die for your love" more or less the same thing happened at that moment, if you have any questions you can ask in the comments and I will do my best to clarify your doubts.
