While her best friend was starting a new life as a married woman, Rosé had just moved out of the apartment Jennie owned in favor of moving in with the Kim family to take care of their patriarch as his private nurse.
She didn't know what made her decide to accept the old man's offer, but she had to admit that the pay would be more than sufficient for her to pay her med school tuition fee for the following school year compared to if she remained working as a nurse in the hospital.
Rosé also didn't want to prolong her stay in her best friend's apartment, now that Jennie was married to that little tyrant, although her best friend insisted for her to stay as long as she wanted.
She stepped out from the cab that brought her to the private villa where Chairman Kim was currently residing with his wife and Dong Hee. Looking up at the new place where she would temporarily stay, Rosé wasn't surprised at its grandeur.
Well, the villa was simply stunning with its all brick and ivory colored walls and huge windows that seemingly allowed the sun to light up the whole place while hidden behind large trees and from prying eyes.
Picking up her suitcase, Rosé heard her own feet softly making a crushing sound on the gravel road that led to the private villa. She then pressed the button next to the doorbell, announcing her arrival.
A man in his mid-forties came rushing, opening the gates for her before taking her luggage. The top of his head was already bald, but Rosé could see wisps of white hair from his ears down to his nape. He was also missing a few front teeth and his back was slouching a bit, making him look shorter than his actual height.
"Miss Park, Chairman Kim has informed us about your arrival. Everything has already been prepared for you. If you would, please follow me." He said politely, gesturing Rosé with his hand to follow him.
As they reached the imposing double front doors, Rosé didn't make any reaction when she spotted Jisoo standing at the doorway, looking at her with an expression she couldn't comprehend at all. He looked uncomfortable standing there, but as she took a quick look behind him, Rosé spotted two luggage behind him.
It seemed that she wasn't the only one who would be moving in today. However, Rosé wasn't looking forward to getting involved with his issues with the rest of the Kim family. She was starting to think that wealthy families such as the Kim family and Jennie's family were no different from commoners like her, when it comes to having family issues.
However, what differed Jisoo's situation was that he wasn't competing for the inheritance, but for his father's recognition. She could see it in his eyes that he cared about his father deeply, but won't admit it vocally.
"Nurse Park." Jisoo gave her a curt nod before turning his eyes on the luggage their caretaker was holding. "I'm glad that you agreed with my father's proposition. I could be at ease knowing he would be able to recover well with you here."
Rosé remained silent and looked at him blankly. She wanted to set the record straight with him; that she was a nurse and not a doctor. She cannot administer any medicines or perform any surgery without a doctor's supervision, hence she had no way to guarantee Jisoo's father's recovery. What she could do was to ensure that Chairman Kim's surgical wounds would heal clean and nicely, and assess the changes in the medical status of the patient.
Jisoo then helped their caretaker to bring Rosé's luggage to the top of the stairs, with her following closely behind them.
"Uncle Yan will take your suitcase to your designated room and give you a tour. I suppose you would have to talk with that 'woman' to find out their expectations of you." He said, before turning to leave her with their caretaker, taking the opposite direction from where Rosé was.
