[2] Reborn [Jirose Adaption]

Chap229-Push and pull game

In the condo.

Roseanne had folded his shirt, washed the cup, and kept his razor away in the bathroom cabinet. Looking at what she had done, Park Jimin's lips curved into a small smile.

Last night, Roseanne had borrowed courage from the alcohol to display her might of wanting to settle a month's worth of debt with him. Today, she had obediently tidied up the marks he had left behind in the condo.

The little woman was saying more and more empty words.

Park Jimin tugged open the first few buttons on his shirt. He glanced at the sky outside and softly chuckled.

At this moment, a chime indicated that he had received a message. He glanced at his phone.

Kim Taehyung: [ Where are you? At the condo or elsewhere?]

Park Jimin carelessly replied: [condo]

In less than half an hour, Taehyung drove over. After knocking, he immediately entered.

Kim Taehyung appeared fierce and cold, but at the same time, gloomy. The moment he entered, he headed in to look for water.

"Why did you come in such a rush? Is there trouble?" Park Jimin glanced mildly at him.

After chugging the water, Taehyung placed the glass cup down to speak: "Previously, when Jennie used to take on missions in America's Kim Training Base, she once intercepted several vehicles smuggling weapons and ammunition belonging to the mafia. For the past two years, those people have been relentlessly pursuing her whereabouts. My people found out that they've been moving within the country recently, and that they're currently within UK. I'm afraid Jennie's location has already been discovered."

Park Jimin coldly and indifferently raised his brows, watching him and asked "Didn't she come to meet you last night?"

Kim Taehyung didn't respond back and changed the topic. "It's all old grudges previously formed with America's Kim Training Base related to New York and Los Angeles's underground ammunition transactions. Their goal is Jennie. This won't implicate your woman." Taehyung had rushed over through the night and did not manage to catch a wink of sleep waiting for Jennie to come. His expression was gloomy as he coughed to add, "But for the next few days, it's better not to let Jennie follow Roseanne Lin around. It won't be a good thing if they find out that Roseanne Lin is on good terms with her."

Park Jimin's stern brows moved slightly. "When it comes to revenge, the New York Mafia always precisely targets the right person. Based on their ability, they won't be able to stir up too much trouble within the country, nor will they dare to implicate too many people outside of their territory."

Kim Taehyung nodded. "Jennie's case is only related to the mission she previously completed for the training base. It's unrelated to those people you had interfered with in America a few years ago. Watch Roseanne Lin well. There's no need to help me with this. I have my own plans."

"Pay attention to safety." Park Jimin was unperturbed as he spoke. "Find a suitable time and send away those people who have constantly been creating trouble in America. In the past few years, they've been involved in various evil crimes. When the time is ripe, we have to give them a proper send-off. Let Jungkook handle this case, he has more connections with New York side However it's not easy to handle this all alone by yourself."

Taehyung chuckle at his recomand "Just leave him alone. If he will be include in this case, more blood stain will be split on our hands. More over he is currently unavailable."

"Unavailable of playing push and pull game with Lisa?" Park Jimin chuckle at the thought of it.

Kim Taehyung was silent for a moment before asking, "Have you recently been back to America?"

Park Jimin did not show any emotions, nor did he answer.

"I heard that the Lee Family's elder was quite heavily angered by you. What happened? The incident that Roseanne Lin experienced a month ago really crossed your bottom line?" Kim Taehyung's cold and seductive voice was mocking. "I refuse to believe that Elder Lee and your father did not form any promises back then. He thought that he had made an impressive move but was unaware that the power had already shifted onto your hands. Not only did you dissolve the marriage agreement with his precious granddaughter, but you've also been constantly setting up all sorts of restrictions on them. For the past two years, they've been quite dumbstruck. Even though the Lee family has tremendous power of influence in America, they clearly don't plan on fighting head-on with you."

"I'm quite curious. In the past month, what did you actually do in America? That night, the anger drove Elder Lee directly to the emergency room. Thankfully, his life is stubborn. After four nights of hospitalization, he was able to return home. But from what I've seen, right now, they're akin to a closed-off country refusing contact from all outsiders; ready to defend their property to death. Could it be that, for the sake of giving Roseanne Lin her revenge, you're really going to be ruthless against his precious granddaughter?"

Park Jimin's smiled indifferently, as though the executioner manipulating the situation behind the scenes wasn't him. His tone was heavy and calm. "I haven't done anything. I've only allowed him to gain a clear look at the pros and cons of this situation. If he plans to make a joke of the Lee Family's fate, I naturally wouldn't mind participating in this joke with him."

Kim Taehyung raised his brows. He turned to scan the slightly empty condo; it clearly wasn't being frequently used. He mocked, "After so long, could it be that Roseanne Lin is still angry?"

Park Jimin's gaze became cold. "You can scram now."

Taehyung glanced at the time. Right now was indeed not suitable for brothers to tease one another. He had rushed over through the night and had urgent matters to attend to.

Park Jimin was an expert who never left blood on his blade. From start to finish, aside from that extra fiancée Park Taeyong had placed by his side for a year, he had never miscalculated a single step.

For him, Roseanne's appearance and the way she constantly barged through his life was perhaps the only true surprise he had ever experienced.

Downstairs, several bodyguards who were on duty by the gates stood stiffly. Kim Taehyung appeared, bringing out a photo on his phone for them to see.

"This middle-length hair, and skinny woman frequently visits this place. After last night, have you guys seen her?"

When they saw the photo, the bodyguards immediately recognized her as Mrs. Kim, the person who frequently accompanied Miss Lin in and out of this condo.

"Two days ago, I saw her returning with Miss Lin. But she didn't show up yesterday. I haven't seen her for a whole day."

After hearing these words, Taehyung's gaze turned cold. He took large steps, his expression frigid cold.

The next day, Roseanne stayed at University as she usually did. She did not receive any news from Jennie for the entirety of yesterday. The calls she made were also not answered.

The batch of students under Professor Jay were about to receive a surprise quiz soon; otherwise, Roseanne would have headed to the condo neighborhood for a look.

Previously, when Jennie didn't stay with her, she had suitable accommodations arranged in a less populated neighborhood near University.

After completing another day of classes, the call that Roseanne made to Jennie was unanswered again.

She left University and headed for the neighborhood Jennie previously stayed in.

After being close to her for a month, the sudden loss of contact from a person who was always by her side was difficult to get used to. She was also worried that Jennie may have met with some trouble.

That neighborhood was not far away from her condo; it was only one bus station away. Instead of taking the car, Roseanne headed there on foot.

To enter that neighborhood from this road, she needed to go around an entire row of buildings. In the middle, there was a narrow alley in between the buildings she had to pass through. Jennie had once brought Roseanne through that place.

When Roseanne arrived at the alley that was rarely used, she suddenly caught the sound of a loud collision—
