ED:

Even the large hospitals in our country are all grey due to the parking lots

It was surprising to find such a luxurious garden in Hong Kong, where land was even more expensive than in Korea.

Ram Hwajung, unaware of what astonished Leeha, was smiling for the first time in a while.

Hurry up and get well, so we can go shopping.

Now that you mention it, Ram Hwajung-ssi, you like shopping, dont you? Leeha teased.

Ram Hwajung lowered her head in embarrassment.

Leeha was already aware of this fact, having been told by Kijung and Bobae.

The idea of buying luxury clothes, bags, and shoes as if playing with dolls was a bit absurd.

Was it enjoyable for her to dress up someone else?

Ram Hwajung had been very enthusiastic about trying different outfits on Kijung and Bobae. Leeha laughed, imagining this scene.

Oh, Ill buy something for you next time, oppa.

Thank you. But neither Bobae nor I are that poor. We might not be able to buy luxury goods like water, but-

I want to buy it for you.

Okay, then. Ram Hwajung-ssi can buy something for me, and Ill buy something suitable for Ram Hwajunj-ssi. Okay?

Suddenly, the wheelchair stopped abruptly.

Leeha turned his head, wondering what was wrong. Ram Hwajungs gaze was fixed on his face as if frozen.

Why, whats wrong?

Was it inappropriate to offer to buy something for a member of a global chaebol family? Was that considered rude?

Its the first time someone said that.

What? Said what?

Hehe. As expected, oppa.

She looked directly at Leeha and smiled.

Her smile, revealing her pearly white teeth, appeared almost fairy-like to Leeha.

For Ram Hwajung, it was a fresh shock and quite moving.

The people around her, who always judged by the amount of money, had never given Ram Hwajung any special gifts. Either they thought she could buy whatever she wanted, or they were afraid of being ridiculed for giving something mediocre.

For Ram Hwayeon, who had never received gifts from anyone outside her family, Leehas words deeply resonated.

Id like that.

Leeha was momentarily lost in Ram Hwayeons smile and hardly heard her response.

As Leeha continued to stare at her, dazed, Ram Hwayeon finally seemed to come back to her senses and lowered her head again, her ears turning red.

Ahem! Lets continue our walk.

Leeha awkwardly moved the wheelchair.

Ram Hwajung no longer pushed it from behind. The broad, well-maintained walkway was spacious enough for them to go side by side.

Anyway, even though shes young, isnt it normal to think shes beautiful no, its pure innocence or something like that its not weird at all -

Leeha, slightly embarrassed by having been captivated by Ram Hwayeons smile, was busily rationalizing it in his mind.Fịndd new updates at novelhall.com

Therefore, he didnt pay much attention to the suspicious group approaching from the other end of the walkway.

Oppa, people.

-So thats not really- Huh? What?

Leeha snapped back to reality only when Ram Hwayeon called him.

Five men were walking towards them, side by side, leaving no room to pass.

Whats this? Foreigners?

Though wearing various clothes, all five men were blond and blue-eyed foreigners.

Encountering foreigners wasnt unusual in the international city of Hong Kong.

But where were they now?

They dont seem to be patients Why are these bulky guys blocking the path like that and in a line? Whats going on

It was strange.

Leeha gradually slowed down the wheelchair. Ram Hwayeon also slowed her steps.

Leeha tried not to pay attention to them, thinking they would move aside once they got closer. Thats when he saw it.

The item uniformly plugged into their ears.

Leeha

The only person categorically different from other men in Ram Hwayeons heart.

The thought of Leeha caused Ram Hwayeons heart to ache.

Though the Qingbang gangs are under fathers influence, the mainlands Triads are unpredictable. If they are involved with such gangs, then those two It was the worst-case scenario.

It was unlikely that the Dutch pharmaceutical circle, already identified as the culprit by Ram Hwayeon, would go to such extremes.

However, the improbable had already happened, and once it did, predicting its extent was impossible.

Shortly after, Ram Peng ended the call and handed the direct line phone back to Jachung.

I can guess what was said without hearing it. Whats the deadline?

Ram Hwayeon asked, frowning. Ram Peng replied with a pale face.

By sunset. Theyll block the media until then. But if we cant find Hwajung by then-

We have to find Ha Leeha too.

Its not my concern to look for some patient! Anyway, if we cant find Hwajung, I will-

Ram Peng couldnt finish his sentence. It wouldnt just end with being stripped of his major roles.

His legs trembled. His attendants in the directors office hurriedly supported him as he collapsed into a chair.

Ram Hwayeon sat down in the chair Jachung had prepared, pressing her forehead.

Ha Leeha Where are you? Youre still safe, right?

Despite the presence of over ten people in the room, it was so quiet that even breathing sounds were barely audible.

Peng.

Huh?

You know not to use withdrawing from the mainland pharmaceutical market share as a negotiation card, right?

Ram Pengs face had aged five years in just a few minutes.

His expression already gave Ram Hwayeon the answer she needed.

Why even ask? You know fathers stance. We do not negotiate with terrorists.

Thats right. An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. Ah

Ram Hwayeon sighed again.

It was for this reason that Ram Peng couldnt resolve the situation, even though they had a rough idea of who the perpetrators were and what they wanted.

Give the kidnappers what they want in exchange for the abducted people?

Using the negotiation card forbidden by the chairman of the Ram Long Group meant something significant.

Even if the abducted people could be saved, the person who saved them would be punished by the ruler of the Ram Long Group.

A punishment harsher and more severe than simply failing the task.

Still, in the worst case, I have to persuade Peng. Anyway, he has a lot of signing authority for the pharmaceutical affiliates. Sacrifice Peng to bring Leeha and Hwayeon back.

Ram Hwayeon looked sharply at Ram Peng, feeling no sympathy for him.

Considering it was past lunchtime when they were kidnapped, it was around 3 PM.

It was just past 5 PM now, meaning the deadline was within the next two hours.

Fathers direct involvement isnt ideal either. Releasing media control means a massive upheaval and sweep. Provoking the criminals could endanger Leeha and Hwayeon.

Ram Hwayeon had to make a decision.

Find a way to rescue them within two hours.

Or persuade Ram Peng to sacrifice himself within that time.

Theres no third option! Unless theres a Superman, its impossible to find cockroaches that have vanished somewhere in Hong Kong in just two hours-

[Chzzz Ram Hwayeon! Can you hear me Chzzz-]

Suddenly, a noise broke the deathly silence in the room. Ram Pengs eyes widened in shock.

What, whats that? Wheres that sound coming from-

Oh my god!

But Ram Hwayeon recognized it.

The source of the sound was her jacket pocket! What was in there?!

She hastily took out the item.

[Chzzz Ram Hwayeon, if you can hear me respond ]

Director! That voice is- And towards the voice, Ram Hwayeon yelled.

Leeha-!

The direct line walkie-talkie given by Leeha on the day of his admission was ringing in Ram Hwayeons hand.
