Chap276-Mr. Park will be safe

If Park Jimin was too busy these two days to fly over, she could fly back to Korea with Ryujin.

But why didn't he even call her?

There was no news of him even at twelve o'clock in the evening. She thought he might be on a flight home from abroad that took more time than usual.

After not getting his call or seeing him showing up, she took a shower and went to sleep.

At six o'clock the next morning, Ryujin's cell phone suddenly rang.

As soon as Roseanne heard the ringtone, she jumped up from the bed although it was not her cell phone ringing.

Ryujin was sleeping in the guest room next door. When Roseanne pushed the door open, Ryujin was already answering the call. She looked solemn.

Ryujin who was usually expressionless rarely had such an expression.

In an instant, Roseanne had a hunch that something terrible happened!

After talking, Ryujin put down her cell phone and turned her eyes to Roseanne who was standing at the door.

"Mrs. Park, why did you get up so early?" Ryujin gazed at her and asked her calmly after two seconds.

"I couldn't fall asleep, so I came to have a look when I heard your cell phone ringing." Roseanne walked in and pulled the curtains open for her while asking her in a deliberately casual tone, "Who called you so early in the morning?"

"Young master Kim." Under the light of dawn, the look on Ryujin's face couldn't be seen. She took a look at the time. "I don't think President Park will come over. He must have something urgent to tend to. Let's go to the airport ourselves and go back to South Korea today."

Roseanne's hand rested on the curtain. After a short pause, she looked at Ryujin.

"Ryujin, tell me if anything is wrong?"

Not answering her, Ryujin pushed back the quilt and got off the bed. "Let's have breakfast first. Mr. Park has told me to make sure you have each meal on time every day. Shall we order takeout or call a housekeeping aunt over to cook for us? I can't cook. Even if I do, I don' think you can bear the food I make."

"Just tell me what happened to him. No matter what has happened, you shouldn't keep it from me." Roseanne stared at Ryujin's back and raised her voice, not giving her a chance to change the topic.

Ryujin stopped, turned around, and looked at Roseanne. "Mrs. Park, I believe Mr. Park will come back. What you should do now is to go back to South Korea safe and sound."

"What happened to him?"

When Roseanne heard that she said, 'I believe Mr. Park will come back,' her heart sank.

Ryujin wouldn't easily say these sorts of words.

Knowing Roseanne wouldn't give up until she told her the truth, Ryujin gazed at her, saying, "Mr. Park flew to Cambodia some days ago, where it is recently not peaceful. There are also gangs lurking around in Cambodia that became enemies with Kim base in the United States. Mr. Park is currently out of contact with our men, and we can't find his location or receive any signal from him. What we know is only that a group of arms dealers active at the Korean-Cambodian border went to that area too. We don't know if they ran into each other. Mrs. Park, you don't need to worry too much, Mrs. Kim is currently staying at Cambodia and Young master Kim is on the way there. They are finding him every way they could get. Believe me, Mr. Park will be safe."

Roseanne gazed at Ryujin calmly. It had been quite a while before she understood what Ryujin told her. She repeated to herself what Ryujin just said word by word in her heart.

"The gangs who became enemies with Kim base in the United States? Park Jimin is from the Park Family. With such a powerful background, he didn't have to get his hands dirty when he developed his business, nor did he need to contact the underworld to get their support. What on earth was he up to when he was in the US? Why did he suddenly go to Cambodia? That's a dangerous country where gang violence is rampant, and land mines are almost everywhere, which is something known to the whole world! Why did he go there?"

"Sorry, Mrs. Park. Only Mr. Park can answer your question after he comes back. I can't tell you too much," Ryujin said gently. "But please believe me, just as you said, Mr. Park's hands have always been clean. He hasn't done anything illegal. As for what happened in the US back then, well, it is complicated. Although he has nothing to do with the underworld, in the eyes of the gangsters and the competitors of the Kim base, his brain is worth ten billion dollars. They won't kill him, but if they ambush him and capture him, they won't release him easily..."

"So, you mean he can't be back because he has been kidnapped...?"

Ryujin paused and looked at her. "Mr. Park is missing, and the people in the base have all gone to search for him, but nobody knows what exactly happened to him. He had cut off the contact signal before he went missing..."

"What? That's impossible. He said he just went abroad on business." Roseanne suddenly turned around to run into her bedroom and picked her cell phone to call Park Jimin.

"Sorry, the number you have just dialed is unavailable right now. Please try again later."

Roseanne slightly frowned and continued to try other numbers of Park Jimin.

Work phone number, personal phone number, and the infrequently used phone number. She tried each of them.

But the voice prompted that the phone was powered off, unable to connect or out of service.

Seeing Roseanne still trying to call Park Jimin, Ryujin came up to her. "Our men have gone to search for him. Mr. Park will come back safely, for sure. Mrs. Park, let's go back to Korea first and I'll company you back."

Trying to calm down, Roseanne looked at her. "He asked me to wait for him to come back, and he promised to take me to the airport when he comes back to Korea. Park Jimin never breaks his promise. I'll stay here, waiting for him. Perhaps he is right on a plane for Korea or has landed at the airport. I must wait for him here."

Ryujin wanted to comfort her, but obviously, Roseanne was on the verge of collapse and she shouldn't push her too hard, so she merely said, "Okay, then let's wait for him here. I'll stay with you."

Roseanne didn't speak anymore but sat down on the couch with her cell phone in her hand and her eyes staring at the door.

Half an hour later, there was suddenly some noise outside the door, and the doorbell rang. Roseanne lunged to her feet and rushed up to the door. She looked really excited when she swung the door open. However, to her disappointment, a strange middle-aged man was standing outside.

"Young lady, this is the takeout you just ordered." The middle-aged man smiled at her politely and handed her two bags with meal boxes inside.

The smile on Roseanne's face immediately froze.

Ryujin hurriedly walked out, took over the takeout, and paid for it. Then she pulled Roseanne into the room and closed the door.

"This is the takeout I just ordered. Mrs. Park, you can wait here, but you must have some food."

"I'm not hungry. You can eat it." Roseanne walked back to the couch and sat down.

"But Mr. Park said you have to eat breakfast."

"I'm not hungry..."

"Mrs. Park, if Mr. Park finds out that you don't have your meals on time, he will fire me when he comes back , he will directly send me back to US and I'll be punished for not taking care of you. I don't want to go back to the US. It will be hard for a female bodyguard like me to find a job in Korea if I get fired."
