"Firstly, are you Kim Myung-Hee or Jin Myung-Hee?" Yo-Han's question shook Myung-Hee to the core, she was startled by this sudden question.
"You are a Jin, aren't you?" He questioned again.
"Why are you asking me that, Yo-han you know I am desperate to level up my shares, are you playing some prank, please stop the joke and tell me what I need to do..." She ignored his question with pretence and Yo-han watched as she nervously answered him and gulp down a cup of water. She appeared as if he just mentioned the unspeakable.
"It's true right, that's why your shares is nothing compared to your Kim brothers'. "
"No, I am Kim Myung-Hee, and thank you for prying into my private matters."
'Private matters, she is definitely trying to hide something.'
"Private?, Do you think I don't know about the Kim and Jin families relationship, I just find it mysterious that no one knows about this relationship, well you can confide in me, I won't tell no one, trust your brother Han." He coerced her sweetly, hoping to get words from her.
"Yo-han, I can't tell you anything about the Jin family"
"Why can't you tell me?"
"Is the offer to increase my shares still available, I will do anything else if it's still available. Each time I talk about my shares, my parents say that I am too greedy and not contented, I think it's because I am the female child and they don't want me to take part in business."
"Even when you are studying Business administration in school they still don't want you to do business. Are they planning to marry you off once you graduate?".
" No, not gonna happen. I will prove how useful I am, moreover my mom won't allow me to be married off to someone I don't love."
"Why won't she?"
"She was also married off to my dad, she is the Eldest daughter of the Baek family and she got married very early. At first she loved my dad so much but he didn't reciprocate that love. Marriage is supposed to be a journey of hills and valleys, but hers was a journey of a peakless hill. This is a private matter, I can only tell you because it's you. Many think the Kim family is a peaceful one but in reality it's hell."
"I guess you have said so much already, what I want you to do is stated in that sheet of paper, take a look at it when you are free. I should go back to work now." Yo-han stood and left after paying for Myung-Hee's meal.
He sat in the back seat of the car and spent his journey back to the office thinking about Myung-Hee's conversation with him. He wondered why she refused to say anything about the Jin family, that makes him more curious to know what it is about them. And speaking of Madam Kim, she is the Eldest daughter of the Baek family. A useful piece of information, something he hadn't known before which perhaps might want him to be more defensive towards the Kim family because Mrs Kim will definitely throw everything she has at him at the cost of destroying her family, The Baek family.
Even though Myung-Hee refused to tell him about the Jin family, he had the chance to learn about the Kim madam, something he never considered before. Well his journey was not completely a waste of time, any information is useful.
*Beep beep* Yo-Han's ringtone brought him out of his thoughts. He immediately answered the call. " Hello, Yes... I will be right there."
"Mr Seo, take me to PiA." Yo-han informed the driver and in no time, he was at PiA, walking to an interrogation room, led by Na-Gil and Seuk-Chin alongside the Deputy Commander.
Inside the room a man with round rimmed glasses sat on a chair, sipping a cup of coffee. He was not confined to the chair in anyway, neither was he in any discomfort whatsoever aside being nervous about who wanted to see him.
"What is he doing here?" Yo-han asked Na-Gil about the man he saw through the one way mirror. He recognized the man and he didn't expect the man to be here by any means.
"Are we not supposed to look for Director Li tomorrow, why is he here today?" Yo-han asked and the reply came from Na-Gil.
"You have to meet KimJin for the KDD project tomorrow, I had to shift the schedule." Na-Gil replied.
"Then why did you bring him here instead of taking a trip there?"
"Someone seems to be worried that you will get fatigued from too much traveling, so I ask them to bring him here." Na-Gil said and lead him to the entrance were they stopped to converse.
"Was it Mom?"
Na-Gil winked at Yo-han just as he mentioned the name, "No, Ehm, lady Choi."
"Ahem, let's see what Director Li has to say, while doing that, please check on our people at KimJin. Find out whatever you can about the Jin family, I want every bit of information available and don't forget to find love." Yo-han immediately dashed into the interrogation room leaving a speechless Na-Gil outside with some dudes who all chuckled at the interaction.
"That seems to be Boss' new catchphrase." Seuk-Chin commented and continued laughing.
"Huh...Is it funny?" Na-Gil sneered-glared at Seuk-Chin before going to perform his task.
Inside the interrogation room, Yo-han took his seat in front of the man named Director Li. The man had fairly aged compared to the one he saw in the video tape. There was no sign of poverty compared to the man in the tape.
"Good day, Mr Park?" Director Li's eyes widened when he saw Yo-han, but he wasn't so disassembled as Ms Bu Nara was. He tried to remain calm.
"Good day Mr Finn Li, I am Park Yo-han, Park Mit-Eum's son, I asked you to come." Yo-han introduced himself, with an hand shake.
"Woah...what an exact copy?, The resemblance is too much, nice to meet you, Park Jnr."
"Hmm, without dilly-dallying, let's get straight to why I asked for you. Fifteen years ago, you trapped Mr Park in the room by yourself before the fire. I know you are not the mastermind, but can you please tell me, who is the suspect, do you by any chance think Director Choi had any grudges against Mr Park?."
Director Li smiled and ask "is that all you want to know?, If so, I think Mr Park and Director Choi are big time enemies, do you know about the Water pollution incident about 16years ago? Back then Mr Park was the prosecuting attorney on the case that accused the Choi family's Mari Laboratories of releasing a deadly water borne disease that killed millions of living organisms in the Dark Eagle-square Lake. Back then there was a lot of criticism and protest towards closing down Mari Laboratories, it was a nationwide protest about Saving the marine and it even gained some international attention. Do you think by any chance Director Choi will not have any grudges against the man who escalated the issue and prosecuted him in court?, The man who made the stirring fire of the case difficult to seize, it wasn't until after Mr Park's demise that the Choi family managed to secure their position in the society once again. It's logical that Director Choi hated Mr Park so much."
Yo-han cupped his face in his hands and sighed heavily and his anger filled the air. He wasn't angry at Director Li rather, his hatred for Director Choi surged rapidly.
"Mr Li, are you telling me that Mr Choi really had a reason to assassinate Mr Park?"
"I am not saying that's what happened for certain but I am only explaining my point of view which is that Mr Park really did step on Director Choi's nerves for Director Choi to kill his own son-in-law, don't you think?."
Yo-Han's face paled, he rushed out of the interrogation room and out of the PiA base.
He had no other thoughts rather than how to destroy Choi Mu-Young. He did say he had forgiven the old man but he placed the man on parole, but Choi Mu-Young is no more innocent until proven guilty, he is already guilty. Then, he has to give the right punishment. "Forgive me Dan-bi, wait I don't worth your forgiveness. I know I said I have forgiven, seems Na-Gil was right, I think I only deviced those words to get you on my side. But please, let me take what I want, I thirst for revenge."
