Roseanne was so dizzy that she couldn't get away from the sofa though she had tried to stand up several times.
She gave up after struggling for a while. She rubbed between her eyebrows and took her cell phone to check the time.
In her dizziness, she tried to figure out whether Park Jimin had heard what she said on the phone. She had lowered her voice, and he was in a meeting. Maybe he didn't hear her clearly.
Roseanne bit her lip hard, trying to keep herself awake.
She didn't know how long it would take her to lose consciousness. One minute, two minutes, or ten minutes?
Just when she was going to lose consciousness, a loud noise from the door woke her up.
Roseanne looked up only to see Park Jimin enter. He looked angry, and when he spotted Roseanne lying on the sofa, he coldly glanced around the room and then rested his stare on the teacup on the tea table.
Roseanne was relieved to see Park Jimin. Feeling him approaching her and smelling his familiar, pleasing body odor, she instantly came to herself. He touched her face to make sure she was all right. Seeing her lightheadedness, he stood up in anger.
Just in several minutes, several men who Roseanne had never seen fell in front of the door of the room.
Roseanne looked at Park Jimin who had opened the window to let the wind in from outside.
She felt much better after taking in some fresh air. She struggled to get up and heard a message notification from her cell phone. As she expected, as soon as the door and window were open, there was phone signal.
The message showed that Park Jimin had called her one minute ago, two minutes ago, and three minutes ago...
He didn't stop calling her in this short period of time.
Roseanne had sobered up. Looking at the men lying outside the room, she heard him saying to them in a cold voice, "I'm not interested in who is your boss. I think your boss doesn't want me to know who he is too."
Park Jimin's men gagged these men with the cleaning rags they found in the bathroom.
At this time, Roseanne's cell phone rang again. She picked up the call. "Roseanne, did you call me?" Lin Mason's voice sounded solemn as usual.
From his tone, she could tell that he had no idea of what had happened to her.
"Dad, are you in Korea or Uk?" Roseanne asked.
"How do you know I'm in Uk? I came to visit a business partner here, but I'm too busy to see you. Who told you I was in Uk?"
"Then, where exactly are you?"
"I'm in the hotel my business partner arranged for me. I got to go now. My business partner has sent a car to pick me up, and the car is waiting downstairs. I'll go to visit you at University before I go back to Korea if I have time."
"Okay, Dad, go about your business. I'm fine."
"Really? I remember you seldom called me. I left my cell phone in my pocket and accidentally muted it, so I missed your calls."
"Never mind."
Then before Lin Mason asked her again, Roseanne quickly hung up lest he would be worried about her.
She believed what Secretary Kang said because she asked Lin Mason's assistant about his recent schedule when she was chatting with Lisa via cell phone last weekend, and the assistant said he would visit Uk.
She didn't expect the man framing her up knew the Lin family better even than her. He knew who she contacted and trusted. The staff of the Lin Corporation had been simple, and Secretary Kang had been acting reliably.
A chill ran up to her head, which instantly sobered her up.
She looked up at the man who was putting a towel-wrapped ice bag on her head and naturally reached out for the towel.
After receiving her father's call, she had been sitting on the sofa feebly and didn't have the strength to get up. Not noticing when those men lying on the ground were taken away, she just gazed at Park Jimin's handsome, cold face.
"Feeling better?" He moved his hand away from her head and coldly watched her as she pressed the ice bag on her forehead.
Roseanne nodded. "Fortunately, I called you. Otherwise, I can't imagine what would have happened."
At this time, some people spoke outside the door. Park Jimin's men had taken the club's manager away. He gazed at her and touched her head. "It's okay. We'll leave after you sober up. Tell me exactly what happened to you today when we go back."
Roseanne grunted in response. Although she still couldn't move, she had sobered up with the fresh air and the ice bag.
Roseanne told him what happened just now, from how she received a call from Secretary Kang to how she was locked up in this room. Park Jimin looked at her and said flatly, "The one behind this plot bought over your father's secretary and lured you here in the name of your father. I'll find out what role Lin Momo, Secretary Kang, Choi Clare, and anyone else played in today's affair."
"Who do you think did this?"
The noise outside had gone. Roseanne did not know how his men would deal with this club, but she knew these people would be in serious trouble.
Park Jimin put his hand over her cold forehead lest she should be hurt by the chill. He took the towel and ice bag from her hand and threw them on the tea table. "This person must be among the members of the Lin family. If it's not the old one, then it must be the young one. Just stay here and wait for me for a while. Let me solve this club first."
With that, he asked her to get herself a comfortable position on the sofa, took off his suit jacket, and covered her body after patting her shoulder reassuringly. Then he went out and closed the door.
Several of Park Jimin's men in black suits were waiting outside. They had got the list of those who booked rooms in this club today. As soon as Park Jimin came out, they handed him the list.
Not long later, a young girl hiding in a room not far away was brought out. She cursed and struggled when being pulled out of the room. However, when she spotted the man who wandered over unbuttoning his shirtsleeve, she froze.
Lin Momo never expected Park Jimin would show up here in such a short time. The last thing she wanted was Park Jimin finding out her true colors.
The man's cold and harsh eyes rested on her face. Obviously, he was not surprised to see Lin Momo here.
Her body stiffened under his stare. She was pressed against the wall of the corridor by the men in black suits. She finally found her voice more than ten seconds later.
"Brother Jimin?" Lin Momo's face was pale. "Why are you here?"
As far as she knew, Park Jimin should be occupied at this time tonight because he had an important meeting to attend, but why was he here?!
