Chapter 29 - The kidnapping

The heiress's love
  • Dong Wook ah, please come to my house immediately. Seong-im got kidnapped – Ji  Hyo’s father screams in panic over the phone.

Dong Wook drops his phone on the floor from shock and immediately drives to Ji Hyo’s house.

  • What happened abeonim? What happened? – Dong Wook asks in anxiety right after seeing Ji Hyo’s father
  • I received a phone call earlier saying I have to give them 10 billion dollars or they won’t guarantee Seong-im’s live. – Ji Hyo’s father says with tears on his eyes – Dong Wook ah, what should do we Dong Wook ah?
  • Calm down, abeonim. Let’s me call the captain of Seoul police head quarter and ask for assistant. – Dong Wook says.
  • No, No, you can’t call the police. They specifically said that no police involve or they will kill Seong-im right away. Should we just give them money as they requested Dong Wook ah? Money is not important. Her life is priority Dong Wook ah. – Ji Hyo’s father says with a tremble voice
  •  Abeonim, even when we give them money, there is no guarantee that they will release Ji Hyo. We have to have a plan to rescue Ji Hyo. – Dong Wook explains.
  • What if they know we use police Dong Wook ah. – Ji Hyo’s father concerns
  • If you don’t want to use police, let’s me call for special force. Government only used them in special mission to rescue important politicians. They are trained for situation like this abeonim. – Dong Wook firmly says
  • Can we ask for their help? I don’t think they will let us use special force for civilian.
  • Don’t worry abeonim, the team captain is a close friend of my father. I’m sure they won’t mind helping us. Let’s me make a phone call really quick.

Dong Wook made a phone call to his father and 30 minutes later, the special force with 30 special well-trained army soldiers come to Ji Hyo’s house and install all their equipment to start the mission.

  • Please don’t worry too much, we will ensure to bring Cheon Seong-im ssi home safe and sound – the team captain ensures Dong Wook and Ji Hyo’s father.
  • We put our trust on you. Please bring our Seong-im home safely!. – Ji Hyo’s father begs
  • We will try our best sir. The important thing now is try to locate where they are keeping Seong-im ssi. – The captain says
  • I think I can find out where she is – Dong Wook says.

Everybody looks at him in surprise.

  • How? How you know where Seong-im is Dong Wook? – Ji Hyo’s father asks in confuse
  • The engagement ring that I gave her in Paris. I special ordered them to put a GPS device under the diamond since she was very easy to get lost. I can track her everywhere with my phone. – Dong Wook explains
  • That is great. That is great. You did well Dong Wook ah. Now track Ji Hyo right now to see where she is. – Ji Hyo’s father says with a hopeful voice.
  • N-ne I will do it right now. – Dong Wook says and connects his phone to the military’s computer.
  • It seems like they are still in Seoul, zoom this area please – Team captain commands.
  • Isn’t it in Dobonggu? – Dong Wook asks
  • N-ne, it seems like they are in an abandoned building in Dobonggu. Let’s go there right now. 20 of you will go with me and 10 of you will stay here to wait for the kidnapper communication and protect Mr Cheon. – Team captain commands.
  • Can I go with you? – Dong Wook asks the team captain.
  • It can be dangerous Dong Wook ah. It’s better for you to stay put here.
  • I can’t ajussi. She is my fiancé, the love of my life. I can’t just stay back here and do nothing. – Dong Wook begs desperately.
  • Arrasso. Let’s go. – Team captains says after seeing how desperate and worry Dong Wook is

 

Meanwhile, inside an abandoned building in Dobonggu,

  • Oh you wake up princess? – Ju Ji-hoon smirks.
  • Where am I? Why did you tie me? Let me go. – Ji Hyo screams
  • Calm down princess, of course I have to tie you or else you will escape.
  • Ajussi, why did you do this to me? My father treated you very well. How can you do this to us. – Ji hyo screams at the driver.
  • I’m sorry young miss. You and your father treated me well but I can’t just be a driver for the rest of my life. I will need some money to start over. Do you know how annoying it is to witness you and your father living in royalty? Eat fancy food every day and sleep in that big damn house? Every day I dream of living in a house that is just 1/10 of your house but it will never come true with my cheap driver salary. It’s only fair for your family to share your wealth with less fortune people like us young miss – The driver arrogantly says
  • Do you think you can start over your life with the dirty money that you steal from us? Dong Wook will never leave you alone even when you got the money. He will hunt both of you down and make you pay – Ji Hyo yells
  • Oh please miss; he couldn’t do anything to us when we tried to kill you in the garage last time. What can he do to us now. Hahaha – The driver and Ju Ji Hoon laugh loudly
  • So you were the one that behind that incidence?- Ji Hyo asks with surprise and anger in her voice.
  • Of course, who else did that? I know you and Dong Wook destroyed my career. So it was just a little pay back but I didn’t expect that stupid Kim Jong Kook interfered with my plan. It’s all good at least I can make some money off you now. – Ji-hoon smirks
  • You bastard. How can you do that to human’s life? You are not deserved to be a human. You are worse than a dog – Ji Hyo screams and spits at Ji-hoon.
  • Shut up you – Ji-hoon yells while slapping hard at Ji Hyo cheek. – You lucky rich bastard would never understand how struggled we are to make money. You were born with golden egg and never touch any dirt in your life while we have to use our blood and sweat to earn a living. You have no right to judge me.
  • There are plenty of poor people out there that still try their best to make clean money. Do you think rich people are born rich? My grandfather was a poor farmer before but he tried his best to build his business from 0 to what we have today. You had talent, you could have been rich by using your talent but you chose short cut and get dirty money out of other people. It will never work.- Ji Hyo angrily says
  • Just shut up already before I put a bullet in your head. – Ji-hoon says while pointing his gun toward Ji Hyo’s head.
  • You won’t be able to collect any money if I’m dead – Ji Hyo smirks
  • Just wait and see what I will do to you after I got the money – Ji-hoon threatens
  • Dong Wook will stop you before you are able to do anything. – Ji Hyo yells
  • Shut up with all your Dong Wook talks already. – Ji-hoon screams while kicking everything on his reach.
  • Calm down Ji-hoon ah, let’s go outside and smoke a cigarette first. It’s no use talking to her any way. – the driver says while pulling the angry Ji-hoon outside

“Dong Wook ah, please come quickly” – Ji Hyo prays

 

Outside the building, Dong Wook and the rescue team already arrived and hiding in a blind spot to observe the situation.

  • If we all go in right now, the kidnappers can be panic and hurt Seong-im ssi. We should just send one person in to observe the situation inside the building first. – The team captain says.
  • Please let me go – Dong Wook says
  • I can’t. It is too dangerous for you to go in. If anything happens to you, I don’t know how to face your father.
  • Please don’t worry about me. I was in military before too and I got trained for situation like this. Please let me go. Ji Hyo must be very scared in there. – Dong Wook determines
  • Are you sure? – Team captain concerns
  • Yes please. – Dong Wook firmly says
  • Well, I don’t think I can stop you. Take a gun with you and be careful ok?- Team captain says
  • Yes sir. Thank you very much – Dong Wong says while running lowly to the building - “Ji Hyo ah, hang in there just a little more, I will be right there”

 

Dong Wook runs around the building and check every single rooms but Ji Hyo is nowhere to be found until he reachs to the end of the hallway. Ji Hyo is tied alone inside the room. Dong Wook carefully observe the surrounded area before walking in. Ji Hyo is supper happy seeing Dong Wook approaching her. She is about to scream out his name but Dong Wook signals her to be quiet.

  • Are you ok? – Dong Wook whispers while untying Ji Hyo.
  • I’m ok. I’m so glad you are here Dong Wook ah. – Ji Hyo cries out of happiness and hugs Dong Wook tightly.
  • I’m glad you are ok too. Now we have to get out of here quickly and quietly. Hold my hand tightly and run as fast possible ok? – Dong Wook softly says
  • N-ne
  • Let’s go. One two three, run. – Dong Wook says while holding tightly on Ji Hyo’s hand and runs cross the dark hall way.

A flashback suddenly comes to Ji Hyo’s mind. A boy was holding her hand and running through a dark alley as well. She was like 5 or 6 years old at that time and that boy, that boy is Dong Wook. She remembers it now. 28 years ago, just like today, they were escaping together from that tragic incident. That boy, her first love, it’s him, Lee Dong Wook. A gunshot suddenly pulls Ji Hyo back to reality.

  • Where you think you are going? – Ji-hoon yells with the gun on his hand.
  • Ju Ji-hoon? – Dong Wook says while pulling Ji Hyo behind his back. – You are the one behind this? Are you a criminal now?
  • It was you who destroyed my career and made me a criminal – Ji-hoon screams at Dong Wook.
  • Put your gun down and then talk. Just let Ji Hyo go and I will be your hostage. – Dong Wook says.
  • Don’t do it Dong Wook ah. You will be in dangerous. – Ji Hyo worriedly says
  • Aww. You two lover birds are caring so much about each other. How sweet – Ji-hoon says with a sarcastic voice – how about I just keep both of you and double the ransom. I know Dong Wook ssi is from a wealthy family too.
  • Stop dreaming, we are not going to pay you even a penny. An army is waiting for you out there. You better let us go or we won’t ensure your safety. – Dong Wook screams.
  • What happened Ji-hoon? – The driver appears and distracts Ji-hoon from the conversation. Dong Wook takes the opportunity and shots Ji-hoon in the legs.
  • Let’s run Ji Hyo. – Dong Wook yells and pulls Ji Hyo who is still shock from the loud gunshot away.
  • I won’t let you go that easy. – Ji-hoon screams and fires another gunshot. The bullet is heading straight to Ji Hyo direction. Dong Wook sees it coming and uses his body to cover Ji Hyo. “ Run, Ji Hyo, run” – Dong Wook mumbles before collapsing to the ground with blood flowing out nonstop from his chest.
  • Dong Wook ah, what’s wrong Dong Wook ah? Are you ok Dong Wook ah? – Ji Hyo cries while using her hand to cover his wound. – Stay with me Dong Wook ah, stay with me – JI Hyo keeps saying in tears seeing Dong Wook is about to pass out.
  • I love you Ji Hyo ah. – Dong Wook whispers before passing out.
  • Dong Wook, wake up Dong Wook ah! Wake up! Don’t sleep Dong Wook ah!. – Ji Hyo devastated screams in tears while hugging tightly on Dong Wook’s body.

The Special Force rushes in after hearing the gun shot. They quickly capture Ju Ji-hoon and the driver and carry Dong Wook to the ambulance.

  • Dong Wook ah, please be ok Dong Wook ah. Please don’t leave me Dong Wook ah. – Ji Hyo keeps saying and holding tightly on the unconscious Dong Wook’s hands all the way to the hospital.
  • Please wait out here! – The doctor tells Ji Hyo after pushing Dong Wook to the operation room.
  • How is he? – Dong Wook’s parents and Ji Hyo’s father urgently asks seeing Ji Hyo crying in front of the operation room by herself.
  • He got shot appa. It was all my fault. He tried to protect me. What can I do appa? What can I do? – Ji Hyo screams in tears and suddenly faints on the floor.
  • Seong-im ah, Seoing-im ah. – Her father screams out loud.

Chapter 31: Well that was quite a fun story to read, and thank you for writing this! It mustn't have been easy to make a long and complete work and it was like straight up reading a drama, there was an overarching thing needed fixing (I almost forgot about her memory being gone and not having a mother?) and smaller archs where one finished and another one began but it's steadily moving forward towards a good ending. And yes I think it was a good ending, although it was a little strange to find it so soon after they just solved another problem but I'm glad things got happily resolved.
It was esp. nice considering that these two got development from being strangers to lovers, and they have that basis of teasing and friendship even more than just romantic gestures all the time (although it is appreciated and really sweet)!
It seems almost sad that everything is all tied up, it's good to see a happy ending but I think I've been spoiled by dramas to just cut to the "5 years later" gimmick when everything is all roses and sunshine, but this seems to be satisfying keke
Thank you for writing! ^^

Chapter 28: Wow, I can tell you put a lot of research into planning it out, the pictures were really lovely and it's nice that the couple has trust in each other instead of all this drama due to misunderstanding.
