[2] Reborn [Jirose Adaption]

Chap368-Everything went as he planned

For some reason, Roseanne suddenly had a feeling that everything had gone back to the way it was. She opened her eyes in a daze and looked at the man close at hand. It took her a long time to wake up. Then she saw the man gazing at her.

His eyes were placid and mild.

She didn't know how long he had been standing and gazing at her here.

"Have you finished your job?" She asked sleepily, resisting the impulse to lean into his arms because he was standing so close to her.

"Why didn't you go to bed?" His voice was colder than the night outside the window.

She shook her head and pulled up the thin blanket she covered herself with, still huddled on the sofa. Since she just woke up, she said nasally, "You've just been discharged from the hospital. I don't think you'll be comfortable sleeping in the study, so I'll give you the bed."

The man looked at her silently for a moment and said flatly, "As a man, I won't sleep on the bed and let a woman sleep on the sofa. Go, go back to bed."

The first sentence was somewhat distant and polite, but the last one sounded like an order. He sounded exactly like the Park Jimin who would tell her to eat and sleep well.

Roseanne paused, grabbed a corner of the blanket, and said hoarsely, "Why... are you so polite to me?"

He looked quietly at her with his dark, calm eyes. "Then, how am I supposed to treat you? Do you want to share the bed with me? Or do you want something to happen between us tonight?"

"We're a husband and wife, aren't we?" Roseanne looked into his eyes.

However, the man's cold eyes soon let her realize that she was being foolishly sentimental.

"You may not have found your place." The peculiar scent of the man was lingering in her nose, but after these words, he turned and walked away from her.

The door of the study was opened and closed. Roseanne curled up on the sofa, looking at the door and then at the empty bed.

...

During this time, the two of them were like strangers to each other. As the Park family gradually put pressure on the Lee family, the Lee family blocked the news. Even Elder Lee could not control the invisible net that was being cast over his granddaughter.

When Elder Lee could no longer bear it, he came straight to the Park family. Park Jimin didn't reject his visit. He was smiling, but there was a cold gleam in his dark eyes, and no one knew what he was thinking of. In Elder Lee's eyes, Park Jimin had always been a man difficult to understand and deal with. It seemed to Elder Lee at this moment that Park Jimin, who had just woken up from a two-month-long sleep, was more determined and ruthless than ever.

"Sunmi died in that car. Can't we just leave this case like this? Why do you have to become our Lee family's enemy?" Elder Lee looked at Park Taeyong, who had found out about the truth and was cold to him and then at Park Jimin. He gritted his teeth and tried to win a chance for Lee Jeong yeon.

However, Park Jimin just coldly turned up the corners of his lips.

Everything went as he planned.

The Lee family had been turned upside down after Park Jimin woke up. Elder Lee tried to talk to Park Jimin again but couldn't see him. The Lee family people were no longer allowed to enter the Park family home and the Park Group.

Three days before they went back to South Korea, the evidence that Lee Jeong yeon was behind the accident was corroborated. The medicine Lee Sunmi had taken, all the diagnosis about her issue, and all the other evidence related to her plan were brought to the surface one by one.

Elder Lee was completely powerless in the face of the Park family's pressure and the evidence.

Lee Jeong Yeon was grounded in the Lee family as a suspect, and then taken to the police station. She couldn't explain all the crime evidence at all and couldn't prove her innocence.

After knowing the whole accident was actually designed by Lee Jeong yeon, Sunmi's parents were enraged. They went to the police and exposed many crimes committed by the Lee family, as well as many unknown things between Lee Jeong yeon and Lee Sunmi.

Roseanne had lost a child.

Within the week upon Park Jimin waking up, the Lee family was almost destroyed. Lee Jeong yeon was convicted. Unable to stand the blow, Elder Lee fell into a coma and was sent to the hospital. Lee Sunmi's body was finally taken away from the forensic lab and buried by her parents.

Realizing that he was inferior to Park Jimin in resolution, measure, and judgment, Park Taeyong asked him several times when on earth he planned to take over Park Group.

In the past, Park Jimin wouldn't bother to answer this question.

However, before he returned to Korea, Park Jimin watched Roseanne get into the car and fell silent before he said, "Don't touch my men. The Park Corporation will be merged with Park Group in two years, and then I'll take over Park."

Park Taeyong raised his eyebrows and looked at him in shock. "Are you sure?"

Park Jimin's cold voice was full of ridicule. "If I don't take over Park in two years, with your ability and Park Group's development in the emerging industries, I'm afraid it can't resist the joint strike of the two Internet companies, VK and Hua Hong. Give me two years. The Park Corporation will bring them down, and then they won't even be qualified to be Park Group's opponents."

Although Park Group was the largest Korean company in the US, there had been a significant shift in industry trends both at home and abroad in recent years. Many companies were turning to the Internet and technology. Park Taeyong was already old and knew little about these industries, so Park Group didn't develop well in these emerging industries. If he continued to run Park Group, in a few years, it would eventually decline amid the tide of change in these industries. Park's potential was even less than the Park Corporation that was founded by Park Jimin. Therefore, it would be the best choice for Park Group to merge with the Park Corporation or be taken over by Park Jimin.

Park Jimin had never given him any response on this matter, so Park Taeyong thought he would never take over Park Group and had been worrying that the Park family's enterprise would be destroyed in his hands.

Now hearing Park Jimin's words, Park Taeyong felt much reassured.

...

When Roseanne boarded the airplane to South Korea with Park Jimin, Ryujin had to execute a task in the US, so she would go back to Korea later.

The plane had been flying for several hours. The blue sky and white clouds outside the window all looked beautiful, but the man sitting beside her remained silent.

Under Madam Park and Park Taeyong's stare, they boarded the airplane. However, the man had not spoken to her since they got on the plane.

The plane flew so long that many people fell asleep. Roseanne turned her eyes to the man whose eyes remained closed, wondering whether he was asleep or just taking a rest. Although the two of them shared the same bedroom, he insisted on sleeping in his study. Except after dinner, when she could see him for a moment, he was like a total stranger to her. She had few opportunities to sit beside him and look at him like this.
