Meanwhile, Li Jung Wang wore his poker face, and Li Yeonjun was frowning. He had heard of Roseanne before but he'd never seen her in person. But... wasn't she a Li? Why was she now being introduced as a Park?
While the Li's were lost in their own thoughts, Yang Lina and Kang Daniel were also having theirs. Park? Roseanne Anne Park? When and how did Roseanne suddenly become a Park?
Then the lights focused on the entrance of the venue where a woman wearing a sparkling jumpsuit stood. Next to her was a man wearing an all-black three piece suit... eh? Isn't that Park Jimin of the Park Capital?
Roseanne chose to announce her presence in Seoul. She was still adamant about making this big move in spite of knowing that this would attract more attention and create issues. She wanted to make this gamble and announce that she, Roseanne Anne Park, will build her own empire in Seoul with her lovely consort- ehem, husband, Park Jimin.
"Ready?" Park Jimin asked, with a small smile on his face. Seeing his face under the shimmering crystals instantly reminded Roseanne of those movies about angels - Park Jimin being the angel with his own halo. However, no matter how much he tried to hide it, Roseanne knew that this smile was just another mask, a façade to hide his bloodlust.
Roseanne was not a fool. The moment they heard that the accident was intentional, she immediately felt the change in him. The usual easy going and silly vibe that he always gave her was replaced by something... suffocating. Though it was too quick for her to analyze, she knew it was bloodlust, something that he never once displayed before her.
Roseanne gave the man a meaningful smile, her hand resting lightly on his arm before she watched the artificial smoke effect that was starting to spread along their pathway, adding another dramatic element to the grand entrance that she'd planned.
Gasps and murmurs shrouded the whole venue as they took their first steps towards the stage, her hand on Park Jimin's arm while a small smile was plastered on her face.
Everyone watched with their mouths agape as the light continue to follow the two. Amazement didn't quite cover it. Roseanne Anne Park was wearing a dazzling jumpsuit that seemed to sparkle every time she took a step, while Park Jimin was wearing an all-black suit that seemed to contrast but completely complemented Roseanne's outfit.
The pair dangled small smiles on their faces, making them look good - too good. With the fog swirling around their ankles like wisps of clouds, they were reminiscent of two deities as they walked towards the stage.
Roseanne Anne Park
Park Jimin
Does this mean that...
Everyone widened their eyes before giving each other a knowing look. Contrary to women from Seoul, women from the West would take their husband's surname but it still took a minute or two for the news to register in their brains. Roseanne Anne Lilian- an individual feared in Europe - just married Park Jimin, an individual feared in Seoul. Considering the level of influence that each wielded separately, everyone wondered what kind of storms they could cause in this country.
Meanwhile Li Yeonjun was confused, so confused that he could not utter a single word. It was as if someone took away his brain, leaving him with nothing. "Relax. I have a surprise for you." Yeonjun shifted his gaze towards his mother when he heard her whisper to his father. Tang Ling's voice was low but it was enough for both Li Jung Wang and Yeonjun to hear.
On the other side of the table, Yang Lina and Kang Daniel as well as Kang Zeng were also speechless, their mouths ajar while watching Roseanne walk past them. Roseanne married Park Jimin?
Park Jimin of Park Capital?
Flashes of emotion were seen in Yang Lina's eyes, however, she was quick to hide it. Roseanne being Park Jimin's wife was something that she never expected. How could Roseanne marry someone just a month after her failed engagement? Yang Lina immediately concluded that this was nothing but a marriage of convenience.
Marrying Park Jimin would give Roseanne all the advantages in the Far East, while marrying Roseanne would give Park Jimin all the advantages in the West. Two empires, one from the East and one from the West. Wasn't this just the most convenient marriage in the history of business?
Was this also the reason why Roseanne was not in the hospital right now? Yang Lina gritted her teeth in annoyance. Park Jimin is a very surprising variable that could alter her equation, and a very strong one at that.
Moreover, now that Roseanne had already married someone in Seoul, this could only mean that she was planning to stay here. And that would be a very big problem for Yang Lina.
While Yang Lina was engrossed in her own thoughts, her son Kang Daniel was also experiencing a different emotion right now: Fear. The word was not even enough descriptive enough to indicate the amount of fear that he was feeling right now.
Park Jimin. Of all the people that Roseanne could marry, she married Park Jimin, someone who'd sponsored most of his films. One of his top investors and the top businessman in Seoul. How could something like this happen?
Out of all the people seated at their table, only Tang Ling was feeling happy about today's events. She was the only one who knew of Roseanne's true identity and who her husband was before this...show. Though she never anticipated Park Jimin being present at an event like this, she still found it good that he showed up. Wouldn't this mean that the present she'd prepared for Roseanne would have a double impact?
A beautiful smile bloomed on Tang Ling's face as she continued to watch Roseanne and Park Jimin.
While this was happening, Manager Hao and Naeyeon stood frozen. It was as if their world had stopped revolving and they were trapped inside , unable to move or utter a single word. Roseanne Anne Park? She is Park Jimin's wife? Naeyeon looked at Roseanne and Park Jimin, her gaze unfathomable. Is this the reason why Roseanne invited them? To let them know that she is Park Jimin's wife.
