Chapter 75: Chapter 75: Marking (18 )
Only after eating the soup Rita had prepared did Jeong Taeui’s mind, which had been in a
haze, begin to clear a bit. As soon as he beca more alert, the first thing that ca to his mind was the whereabouts of Morer.
Although Jeong Taeui didn’t think that sly guy would just sit around waiting to die, upon hearing from Kyle that Morer had returned to Hong Kong, a rage ignited within him. Betting nine out of ten tis that even if he called the European branch now to report Morer’s possession of illegal weapons, it would be too late.
Surely, Morer had already gone back to his room, packed all his precious beauties, and hid them sowhere else.
"Damn it. I guess I’ll have to go back there myself..."
He would storm into Morer’s room, throw out all his beloved treasures, and head to Hong
Kong. Those things should be buried deep under the sea. Jeong Taeui gritted his teeth and muttered. That son of a bitch. If I ever see you again, I won’t mind making this relationship even worse.
As soon as he stepped out of Kyle’s office, Jeong Taeui with a pale-face, quickly strode to his own room. When he reached his door, he glanced at the room right next to his, where Morer had stayed until just the previous day. With that thought, Jeong Taeui kicked the door with all his might.
"-!...!!...!!!"
After venting his anger on the door, he realized his leg wasn’t normal at the mont. The tattered bandage from running through the forest had been carefully and neatly rewrapped while he slept. A doctor had been called to the house, and all his wounds had been treated and wrapped neatly with gauze. But no matter how well they were bandaged, the wounds
beneath wouldn’t heal instantly. Especially his ankle, which had been overworked last night and this morning, made him think he might never use it again. His legs were limping as if he could barely walk, but there was no other choice. Even indoors, he had to use a cane.
And in his rage, Jeong Taeui had forgotten that and kicked the door hard, so now his already injured ankle was about to be crippled.
Ilay quietly watched Jeong Taeui, who was trembling and clutching his ankle while lying face down in the hallway with a pale face. He frowned slightly and muttered to himself.
"Sotis, I really don’t understand you at tis like this...."
Taeui didn’t have the energy to respond to Ilay’s serious remark. He groaned while clutching his ankle for a long ti before he cald down.
He bent over and entered his room, then suddenly saw Ilay following him. Taeui frowned.
"What do you want?"
Even though he asked with a cold face, Taeui wondered when that mont would co. From the dawn when he t him in the forest until he returned ho and woke up for a while, this man didn’t show any reaction that worried him. He had thought at least one of his arms would be chopped off when he t him. Maybe he intended to drain his blood and spirit with this advanced thod, didn’t he?....
Jeong Taeui looked up at Ilay suspiciously.
Now he was no longer Kim. Anyway, the escape was over. He couldn’t beat him with force, so there was no other choice but to die quietly if he did so.
However, whether Ilay knew what he was thinking or not, Ilay still quietly looked down at him. Then he turned and went to the chair by the window, sat down, and sighed deeply,
hmmm.
"When did you start listening?"
"What?"
"Earlier. In the office. You must have heard things there."
Ilay’s voice was slightly hesitant. He even seed a bit worried.
Jeong Taeui remained silent. He hesitated for a mont, unsure of how to say when he had started listening to the conversation.
When Jeong Taeui had finished his al and arrived at Kyle’s office, he was about to go up the stairs when he heard Ilay’s voice inside the room. Instinctively, his steps halted.
It wasn’t because of the content of the conversation, but because he didn’t want to face Ilay at the mont. Given the current situation, he wanted to avoid him as much as possible.
Jeong Taeui frowned and intended to turn back, but then he changed his mind imdiately. He had to greet Kyle. He hadn’t seen Kyle since the kidnapping incident.... Well, in reality, it had only been a day and a half since the kidnapping happened yesterday morning....
After thinking for a while, Jeong Taeui decided to sit on the wooden stairs. Ilay wasn’t the type to linger in soone’s room unless he had a specific purpose. If it were a small matter to discuss, he would leave as soon as the conversation was over. It might be a bit different if the person talking to Ilay was his brother, but Taeui didn’t think the conversation would last long.
While sitting on the wooden steps with a determined spirit, a thought flashed through Jeong Taeui’s mind, "Co to think of it, what’s wrong with him?
