The Witch CEO is NOT a Demoness[Jenlisa]

(129) The Woman In Red

Jisoo did not say anything.

He looked at Rosé who was holding his hand while she stared at him.

"Explain? Explain what?"

Jisoo tightened his grip towards Rosé's hand.

He did not like to see her anxious face.

For him, Rosé must always smile.

He'd rather have her act shameless and bubbly every time than see her like this.

Park Guan immediately looked at his daughter as if he wanted her to help him defend himself.

Too bad, Rosé was not looking at him.

Or to be precise, Rosé avoided looking at him.

Although she was shameless herself, she could not stomach her father's shamelessness.

When Park Guan did not manage to have Rosé speak up for him, his countenance darkened.

He wanted to slap her for being an ungrateful bitch but he could not raise his hand and slap her on the face.

Although the thing he wanted to do the most was to berate her and beat her to death, Park Guan could only swallow his anger and think of how he could escape this predicament.

"This old man was only joking about the money for raising my daughter. She is my blood and my flesh. How can I sell her?

Son in law, please believe me. You can even ask Rosé. She is my precious child."

Old Man Manoban wanted to puke rainbows.

Indeed.

This Park Guan was definitely more shameless than him.

'How can he say those words without biting his tongue?'

Old Man Manoban did not say anything. He just continued looking at Park Guan and Jisoo alternately.

Seeing that his grandson was starting to explode, his heart was filled with glee.

'heh heh heh heh.. this is so fun. I hope he will punch this idiotic man in the face.'

He leisurely sipped his coffee while watching the drama.

Jisoo's pupils narrowed when he heard Park Guan's words.

"A joke?"

"Yes! Yes! A joke!! Rosé!! Quickly!! Tell Second Young Master that I was just joking! How can I sell you?"

But no matter what Park Guan said, Rosé remained silent. She did not want to say anything.

She was already tired.

Too tired to always pretend that everything was okay.

That nothing was wrong.

That everything her father did was for her own good.

She had enough.

No more.

Jisoo saw the sadness in Rosé's eyes. He stood up and was preparing to leave with her when Park Guan pulled her arm.

"Ahh!!"

Maybe because Park Guan was bottling his anger, he could not control himself. He pulled her arm forcefully. The strength was very strong that she screamed due to pain.

Park Guan was also startled. He did not expect that his tug was very strong that she almost fell backwards.

He wanted to apologize but Jisoo was a second faster than him.

*baam!!!*

Before Park Guan could utter words, Jisoo's fist already connected with his face.

Park Guan saw stars spinning above his head.

Before he could process everything, another fist connected to his face.

"Jisoo!! Stop!! Stop!! I'm okay!! I'm okay!!"

Rosé immediately hugged Jisoo and tried to stop him from beating her father.

Jisoo was still glaring at Park Guan.

Rosé cupped his face and forcefully turned his head towards her.

"Jisoo, look at me... Look at me.. I'm fine.. it doesn't hurt.."

Jisoo's bloodlust slowly faded when he looked at Rosé's eyes.

Anyone who tried to hurt her will die. No matter who they were, they must die.

No exemption.

He immediately touched her arm. He gently pulled her closer.

"Are you hurt?"

Rosé shook her head.

"I'm fine."

She turned and looked at Park Guan who was sitting on the floor.

"Dad.. enough.. just... just stop.. please... I'm sorry but I had enough... I know you are just using me because you wanted the support of Manoban Family... Dad... for once, can you think of me as your daughter and not as a tool?"

Rosé forced herself not to cry.

She already shed enough tears.

A father like him was not worthy of her affection and love.

"This is your last warning. If I learn that you tried to show yourself in front of Rosé again, I will completely destroy you--your life and your company."

Jisoo pulled Rosé and left without saying goodbye.

Old Man Manoban pouted.

'No fun!! That's it?? Two punches are not very satisfying!! Boooh! Boooh!'

Old Man Manoban also wanted to punch Park Guan and beat him senseless but he could not find any excuse to beat him.

'Tsk. My grandson is very merciful.. ayeee... both he and his older brother are still greenhorns. How can they survive in this world if they could not make their enemy wet their pants?

Ayeee.. let your awesome Grandpa handle this for you..'

Old Man Manoban waved his hand.

"Go back. I'll talk with your father later."

Without saying anymore, he went away without looking back, leaving Park Guan who was still dizzily sitting on the floor.

When he arrived at his room, his assistant immediately followed him.

"Did he left?"

The assistant nodded.

"Mister Guan already left."

"Good. Pack my things."

"Ah? Where are you going, Old Master?"

"Did you already found Park Xiao's location?"

"Old Mister Park is currently staying in the Philippines[1]. According to the report, he wanted to visit all seven thousand plus islands and eat Filipino delicacy such as balut[2]."

"Pack my things! Well travel immediately."

Mino arrived at the abandoned house outside Beijing. He was carrying a bunch of foods and things used for daily necessities.

He saw a woman wearing a red dress sitting on the chair.

"I brought these for you. Don't worry, few more days and you can leave China.

Remember, do not come back here. This is the only thing I can do for you."

[1]. Shamelessly promoting my country lol! HAHAHA!

[2]. Incubated(?) duck eggs (how should I describe balut? HAHAHA.)
