Chapter 43

Taehyung brought a folder and knocked on Jimin's office door and opened it. "President Park."

Jimin raised his head and looked at the door. "Come in."

He got inside and Jimin asked him: "What did you find?"

He put the folder in front of Jimin. "The number is no longer reachable."

Jimin opened the folder and started reading. "You can't check the owner of the number?"

"It was an old number, there was no registration required at that time. So we couldn't check it. I asked someone for the phone call record but it was just one number."

Jimin raised his eyebrow and stared at him. "Seulgi's number?"

He nodded.

Jimin was silent then crumpled the paper into a ball then threw it to the trash. "What about the restaurant?"

"I already checked on their CCTV around the time of Ms Kim's appointment to meet them. But nothing unusual happened." Taehyung frowned. "I found the waiter that gave the package to Ms Kim, but he looks just like an ordinary waiter."

Jimin looked at the photo. "Have you asked someone to check on him?"

He nodded. "Yes. He is just an average twenty two years old boy, single, and lives in an apartment. He is just a part-timer." He continued: "I am afraid that our action inadvertently alerts the enemy so I didn't interrogate this boy."

"You didn't ask who gave the package to him?" Jimin asked.

"No." Taehyung answered simply. "What should we do now, President Park? I don't think we can underestimate them. They did everything without any trace. What do you think we should do next?"

Jimin leaned on his chair and used his fingers to massage his temple. He thought about it for a moment and stayed silent.

This number seemed to be purchased to contact Seulgi only.

"What is the payment method of this card?"
Taehyung already thought about this matter and asked someone to check it. "It's from a small store. Just once."

At first he wanted to check it from the phone's payment type to know who it was, but who knows this person was really great and detailed. So at this moment they basically couldn't check anything.

Jimin tapped his fingers on the table, his eyes weren't focused, he was thinking. Taehyung didn't say anything to disturb him but he suddenly stood up and took his car keys. "Let's go to see Seulgi."

"Ms Kim?" Taehyung didn't know why Jimin wanted to see her, so he was just frowning. "But Ms Kim said she didn't know anything, she never met them in person." He was confused.

Jimin noticed his expression. "We don't have any clue, we can try to get it from her."

He followed him behind. "You already thought of a way?"

Jimin paused his step. "We just need to try but we need Seulgi's cooperation. If she's willing to help until it works, we can let her leave the city." Jimin didn't want to see her again, he just let her stay here temporarily.

Taehyung nodded: "Okay, I will get it prepared."

"What do you want? If you're still having problems, I will not hesitate to call the police." The manager of the restaurant said angrily.

"Then go call them. One of your waiters stole my wallet. If this rumor spreaded out, I would like to see who would be in trouble. I am afraid your restaurant will be empty by then." Seulgi was still sitting on her chair and her voice was calm.

The manager was angry but what she said was true. No matter what, if this matter leaked out, it would definitely influence their restaurant badly. "Ms Kim, what do you want? I already told you, we only have these waiters."

"No, you're lying. I know you have more. But it looks like you aren't afraid that this matter would leak out. Okay then, let's report it to the police. What about it?"

The manager tried to control his anger and tried to calm her down. "Ms Kim, let's talk about this calmly."

Seulgi just smiled. "Then let's see what you will do now."

"Call the remaining waiters." The manager instructed. The door was opened and three other waiters came in. Seulgi could recognize people easily, just a glance and she could recognize the boy.

She came over and looked at that boy but he didn't dare to see her. He immediately shifted his gaze. "All of you can leave. I have something to say to him."

"Ms Kim..."

She glared at him. "What are you waiting for?"

The manager was helpless, he could just leave and ordered the rest of them to leave. When the door was closed, Seulgi shifted her gaze on the boy. "Who gave you the package?"

"Ms Kim, I don't know what you are talking about. What package? I never met you before, I only had seen you on TV. This is my first time seeing you in person." His voice was quite calm but he didn't dare to look her in the eyes.

"You are lying." Seulgi smiled. "You don't even have the courage to look me in the eyes. I am going to ask you one more time. Who gave you the package?"

"I really don't know what you are talking about." The boy still denied it. No matter what she said, he kept on denying it.

The room was being monitored. Jimin and Taehyung were watching them.

"The man recognized Ms Kim. He's lying and he's nervous. Even when his face showed no reaction, he put his hands on the pocket and kept on swallowing his saliva. He didn't dare to look her in the eyes." Taehyung said.

Jimin nodded.

Seulgi came to the restaurant to look for the boy everyday, she would ask him the same questions. But he kept on denying it. If he really didn't know Seulgi, he definitely would be impatient toward her. But he never showed any reaction, he would just look down and didn't look at her.

On the sixth day Seulgi came to the restaurant and ordered a full table of food but when she asked for the boy, the manager said he was sick. He didn't come to work today.

Upon hearing this, Seulgi laughed coldly. "Is he hiding from me?"

"I don't know what you mean. I don't know if he avoids you or not but he asked for a day off and we can't stop him as it's his right. If you don't believe us then go find him by yourself." The manager explained.

Seulgi gazed at the manager. "Give me his address."

The manager controlled his temper. "I'm sorry, Ms Kim. We can't give you his address. If you want to meet him, perhaps you could wait here. I will go now, we're busy." The manager said it then left.

She stayed there for a moment then stood up. She walked around the restaurant to check, but she couldn't find him. She then went to the restroom to make a call.

"Ms Kim, President Park asks you to come out." Taehyung said.

She did as she ordered to and got inside the car. She gazed at the man beside her. "He took a day off."

Jimin nodded, he didn't say anything.

Seulgi looked at the window. "I already did as you order. Can I leave now?"

"When it's done, then you can leave." Jimin said.

"When will it all be done?" Seulgi was getting impatient.

Jimin turned his head and looked at her, his eyes were cold. "What do you think? You can't even find the one who gave you the drug."

Seulgi was silent for a while and finally said. "I went to visit Neon Yun yesterday. She took all the blame, she didn't say anything about what I did. You lied to me!"

"If you have no guilt, how could you be deceived?" Jimin laughed coldly. "Now you don't have any choice."

Seulgi used her hand to support her forehead, she knew Jimin was right. Except him, no one could help her now, she couldn't leave this city. She could only do as she was told. She didn't have anyone else.

The car stopped around Seulgi's house. She opened the door and got off.

He already had the boy's address, moreover, they also already had someone to watch him. If there was a sign of disturbance, they would inform him. Taehyung checked at the time. It was getting late. "I will send you home then, Sir. If there's any news, I will contact you immediately."

"Okay."

Today was Saturday, Jimin wanted to take Joon Min to the zoo that he wanted to visit. His surgery's schedule was coming up soon. They didn't know what would happen then but for the time being he would be staying in the hospital soon for a period of time.

So Jimin wanted to seize the opportunity to take him out.

Jimin arrived home but he noticed that his wife and son weren't home. The butler said they were in the studio. He drove his car to Y/N's dancing studio.

Krystal was pregnant so Y/N took over to handle it, she wanted to get most of the work done before Joon Min was hospitalized for the surgery.

Jimin came over quite often, so he was already familiar with the studio and the people.

"She is inside, Mr Park."

Jimin nodded and got inside. He looked at Joon Min who was playing with toys he got him and Y/N was on the phone. Joon Min raised his head and gazed at him, Jimin put his finger on his lips, asking him to be quiet. Joon Min covered his mouth with his little hand and nodded.

He took a light steps slowly toward Y/N. At first, he was going to surprise her until he heard her say 'Kookie' with her gentle voice. He stopped his steps.

Jeon Jungkook

Y/N noticed a movement from behind and turned her head. She stood up and smiled at him then she continued to talk to Jungkook over the phone before finally hanging up. When she finished, she noticed that Jimin was already sitting beside Joon Min, he was playing with him.

She came over. "Why are you here?"

"I came to take you and Joonie to the zoo." Jimin said.

When Joon Min heard it, he immediately stood up and clutched his hands on Jimin's neck. "Really, Dad?" He asked happily.

"Really." Jimin stroked his hair. "Let's go."

Joon Min was so excited, he immediately tidied up his toys.

Y/N laughed. "Then let me change my clothes."

She went to the changing room. Because this room was for her and Krystal so there is one changing room. When she was about to change, the door was opened.

Y/N was calm when she saw him. "Park Jimin, when will you change your bad habit?" He always barged inside whenever she was changing or taking a shower.

"I can't change it." Jimin said it while grinning. "I think it's a good habit anyway."

Y/N shook her head helplessly. She knew it was impossible to kick him out, so she saved her breath and changed her clothes in front of him.

Today she wore a dress with a zipper at the back. She stretched her hand to pull it up. But when she was about to touch it, Jimin helped her then pulled it up and then fixed her hair down.

Jimin turned her around and clutched her face. He firmly pressed his lips over her mouth, indulging her with the passionate warmth of his kiss. His kiss felt demanding, almost angry. When they gradually got lost in the kiss, Jimin put his hands on her breast and squeezed them harshly. Y/N regained her senses and pushed him away. "Are you satisfied? Let's go, Joonie is waiting."

But Jimin shook his head. "I'm not."

"Then what do you want?" She caressed her bottom lip as it was slightly hurt from his kiss.

Jimin smiled slyly, she could sense the danger in his smile. "Tonight, I will tell you."

"You wish!" Y/N glared at him, then started to tidy up her things.

"What does Jeon Jungkook want?" Jimin asked.
