thirty-seven
Hyunsuk watched the video over and over again with a small smile as Lia rolled her eyes with disgust as she complained, "Can you stop watching the video...your face is going to get smushed into the screen by now."
He didn't even take a glance at Lia as all his attention was focused onto Mina speaking at a press conference. He knew that she would be aware that he was watching, so she kept a big smile even if it was a little awkward for her. He was glad that she was doing well, and he was continuously working with Lia to find answers behind the hotel that Bomin was building. But at times he missed Mina's face, he knew that watching her press conference videos would make him feel like he was with her.
"Did you act like this when we broke up?"
"Don't even mention about that.. I moved on the next day."
Lia scoffed angrily as she walked over to the kitchen to eat some snacks as she munched to herself as Hyunsuk was still staring at the screen. He then got a phone call from his workplace as he rushed over to a different room to answer it. Lia, on the other hand, was wandering around the kitchen as she munched on some peanuts before she heard a knock on the door. She froze immediately as she got immediate chills on her arms.
The knock continued to take place as Lia couldn't really walk over to the front door since there was a small window near the door in which she didn't want the visitor to know someone was home. As if it would be any help to her, she grabbed a bottle of wine that was used as decoration piece for the house. She looked around desperately as she wanted to call out Hyunsuk for help, but before she knew it, the door burst open without any hesitation after the knocks as Lia shrieked loudly.
Lia had her eyes shut tightly but soon opened it after as she saw two men enter into the entrance as Lia charged at one of them with the wine bottle, ultimately managing to hit one of them on the head but it wasn't strong enough to cause any damage. One of the men managed to hold her hands down as he spoke up, "Where is the other guy?"
"I have no idea! What kind of scheme are you thinking of?"
"We are here under the command of you know who he is."
"I don't even care, let go of me! This can get you arrested for kidnapping me."
"You are working under our company; we have the right to take you back."
Lia heard footsteps coming down the stairs as Hyunsuk seemed to finish his phone call. Lia widened her eyes and screamed loudly, "Run!"
As soon as she yelled, the other man started to running up to the stairs to get towards Hyunsuk but he managed to run away towards the veranda where there was a hidden ladder which he was able to escape out towards the front yard. Lia sighed to herself as she knew she couldn't escape without using other forces as she got dragged out of the home and towards a dark van which she was greeted by even more strong men. Sitting in the back of the trunk, she made sure that her phone was nowhere in site as she made sure to leave it back in the kitchen where she hoped Hyunsuk would retrieve it.
Hyunsuk managed to escape from the unknown male as his running skills were actually no match since he was taller than the male. He managed to make back to his own home, where he was worried for the sake of his safety as he packed his belongings just in case there was another issue. There was also a basement that he could hide in if all measures were necessary.
Hyunsuk looked around to find the mess that his home was left in, before he realized that Lia left her phone in the madness. He was worried since he knew that Lia's phone held all the answers and key that Bomin was looking for. He then remembered the words she said when they both were drinking some wine as they talked a few nights ago, "This phone has all the answers....when the time comes, I will release to the public."
"What's inside?"
"Something that can ruin the Choi's reputation...with their lobbying of money when opening their hotels.."
Hyunsuk widened his eyes as he gasped to himself at such a dangerous information that she held inside her phone as he asked carefully, "Wouldn't it get stolen?"
Lia nodded as she sipped her cup quietly as she clenched onto her phone tightly as if her life depended on it. She turned her head to glance over at Hyunsuk as they stared at each other for a few moments as she then spoke up, "If anything happens to me where I can't unlock this phone....you need to keep it safe at all costs. This is the only thing that is protecting me from losing my last integrity."
"I will be sure to...I hope there isn't a time where lives are at stake."
"The password is.."
Hyunsuk quietly stared at her phone as he was left in utter shock of how much storage of data and information she had. Most likely, this information was also sent by Mina so that it was safer in Lia's hands than Mina's as she was stuck with Bomin all day. All the evidence was right there in Lia's phone as he then muttered the password under his breathe to never forget it, "Our breakup date."
