Insight to the chapter

"Your escape plan has been foiled by Chul Woo and Jungkook is nowhere to be found! What will you do to save yourself, your father and the love of your life?"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

John's car was already waiting for me, but I couldn't see the driver from the dark-tinted windows. Quickly, I opened the passenger side door... Chul Woo was sitting there, brandishing a gun!

"Where do you think you are going, girlie?"

What is he doing here?!

John was frozen in the driver's seat, hands on the steering wheel and staring in front of him.

"John, are you okay? Did he hurt you?"

"I--"

"No one told you to talk, old man! Especially to Nam Gil's daughter!" yelled Chul Woo.

No! Oh fish, no! He knows who I am!

"What are you talking about, Chul Woo? Look, you probably had drunk a lot. How about you put the gun away and we can go back inside?"

Chul Woo pulled back the trigger of the gun and points it directly at me. "You are not fooling me with that act. Uncle Chan Yeol told me who you are."

He knows who I am! But... why would he let me marry Jungkook then?!

"Oh, yeah, bi**h. He knows exactly who you are."

"Chul Woo... Please, listen to me! I have no idea what you are taking about!"

"Stop pretending! It is a good think I followed you when I did. You led me right to this old rat!"

No, no, no! I can't' let them get to John! The jig is up. The most I can do now is make sure he doesn't harm John.

I swallowed and erased any emotions from my features. I stared down Chul Woo before I spoke. "Well... I guess there is no point in pretending anymore. Can't say I disappointed. It's been a chore sucking up to you all."

Chul Woo grinned in triumph, and I resisted the urge to punch him and wiped the off his face. "And there is, Nam Gil's little spawn! It is better like this, right? With our cards out on the table."

I glanced over at John. "Let the old guy go. Or do you want to make this situation worse?"

"What the hell are you talking about?"

"I did not cross your mind that I lied to him about why I needed him to drive me?"

Chul Woo paused and bristled. "Shut up." He tightened the hold on his gun, and I noticed a slight tremor in his hand. His back was turned to John who carefully eyed him, then looked at me over his shoulder.

I kept my eyes locked on Chul Woo, the man squirming underneath my gaze. "Now what? Are we just going to stand around here and do nothing? Or are you finally going to do something useful for a change?"

"What did you say to me?!" Bubbling with rage, Chul Woo was utterly distracted, and John used the opportunity to grab him by the wrist.

He pointed his gun upward and squeezed one arm over his neck!

With Chul Woo locked in place, I swiftly punched him right in the face. I have him one more for good measure, and the gun fell from his hand.

"I am going to kill you for this! Let go of me, right now! Guards!" he kept yelling.

Losing my patience, I took his tie and shoved it into his mouth to shut him up. "That's enough from you, Chul Woo. Time you went to sleep."

Time to knock him out!
