Chapter 501: Seems Like He Went to Hide

The moonlight outside shone brightly. Taehyung carefully placed the sleeping Chaeyoung on the bed. From now onwards, he no longer wanted to be involved in this. No matter what In-Sung was trying to find out, he would have no part in it.

A hotel in the States.

In the quiet hotel room, Jungkook has his hands on his waist, next to his leg was the stool that he had toppled moments ago. The old man had escaped!

Qiao Yi was leaning in the doorway playing with his handphone.

"Chaeyoung is working on her visa, I think Taehyung might be coming here soon."

"It doesn't matter who's coming, they will all pay the price of mistreating my mother." Jungkook curled his fingers into a fist. His eyes were filled with hatred.

Qiao Yi wanted to say something nice but after contemplating, he stood up and said, "Your uncle's intentions in letting you handle this case was to allow Taehyung to provide you with an answer. Taehyung led you down the path to look for Lee Chenghao, and he must definitely have his reasons. Why don't you wait for Taehyung before continuing?"

"The only thing that I am confident about is the fact that that old woman killed my mother." Greenish veins popped up on the back of Jungkook's hands. "Why am I not allowed to kill her?"

"Well, you can... But I don't think now's the right time," Qiao Yi replied and put his handphone away before turning around to leave.

"As for what your uncle said, he definitely has his reasons so for now, revenge can wait."

Jungkook saw Qiao Yi open the door and bellowed, "Then where in the world is my uncle?"

Qiao Yi turned his head, one of his hands holding the door open.

"After the truth is unveiled, you'll know.."

After the door closed behind him, Jungkook kicked the stool with all his might. Suddenly, his phone rang.

Jungkook took out his phone and identified the caller. He calmed himself and collected his thoughts before answering the phone. "Chaeyoung, is everything alright?"

Although he couldn't see her face, her voice was still as soothing as ever.

"Big brother, are you still in America?" Chaeyoung asked in a soft and timid tone.

"Yes... I'm here for work. I was just about to do some work. What's wrong? It sounds like something has happened. Why, did Taehyung bully you again?" Jungkook asked in concern.

"Big brother, I'll be heading to America tomorrow, can you come fetch me at the airport?" Instead of answering his question, Chaeyoung just changed the topic.

"Sure. Send me the flight details later, I'll fetch you from the airport." Jungkook said happily.

Chaeyoung opened her mouth, about to say something, but decided to just reply with one word. "Alright."

Chaeyoung decided to end the call with Jungkook. She looked at Taehyung and stammered, "I... I can't say it."

Taehyung reached out to gently stroke her hair. Jungkook was her brother by blood, it wasn't going to be easy for him to accept it too.

"Jungkook didn't talk about my maternal grandfather's case, so I guess it could only mean that he has yet to find him... It seems to be that he might have gone off the radar." Taehyung mentioned with a deepened voice.

"What should we do now?" Chaeyoung immediately looked at Taehyung.

"Your maternal grandfather was helping Wonjie hide something... But what was it? Was that the reason why Wonjie decided to hurt my mom? What else? Was Wonjie also related to Aunty's case?" Taehyung shook his head. He too wasn't sure of what was happening. When Park Aera got into the accident, Wonjie had been dead for two years. There seemed to be nothing linking Wonjie to those incidents at all.
