"Let me take a look at a photo of her from her younger days," Doctor Byung requested.
Jin-woon immediately handed over a photo of a young Sylvie.
Taking the photo, Doctor Byung exclaimed when he saw how Sylvie looked when she was young.
"Oh, my god, so beautiful! The boss will definitely reward you handsomely for finding such a top-notch candidate."
Jin-woon smiled. "We still have to rely on your brilliant methods to bring this lady back to her glory days. When the time comes, as long as our boss is happy, our rewards will be substantial."
Doctor Byung nodded. "Yes, not bad. Don't worry, I'll personally oversee the entire process this time. I won't let anything happen to this lady."
Doctor Byung finally noticed Jordan.
He asked Jin-woon, "Who is this man?"
Jin-woon replied, "He's this lady's son-in-law."
Doctor Byung laughed out loud. "Why did you bring her son-in-law here? Does he want to personally witness his mother-in-law entering the tiger's den? Hahaha.
Besides, you know that this is the Park family's private hospital. Outsiders are not allowed to know of this place. Aren't you afraid that he will be killed by the Park family if you let him in?"
With that, Doctor Byung said to Jordan in broken
English, "If you don't want to die, get lost!"
Jordan was a little annoyed and replied in Korean, "1 will be going in with my mother-in-law."
Jin-woon added. "Yes, Doctor Byung. He can be this lady's interpreter."
Disliking Jordan's attitude, Doctor Byung snapped, "No need! We have professional interpreters here. Make him leave!"
The Park family's medicine would definitely be well-hidden and secured. How could Jordan hope to steal it if he didn't go in?
Thinking on his feet, Jordan immediately said, "My mother-in-law doesn't know how to speak standard English. She only knows how to speak a regional English dialect that is quite different. I'm sure you don't have an interpreter who knows all the regional English dialects in the US, right?"
Doctor Byung kept silent for a moment. There were indeed multiple regional English dialects and accents in the US, many of which could sound quite different from standard English.
Their South Korean interpreter could only understand standard English.
"Alright, since you're the only one who can translate, you can come in as well. However, I have to remind you that this isn't a place where anyone can enter and leave just like that."
With that, Doctor Byung gave Jordan a wicked smile and left.
Jordan understood what Doctor Byung meant. He was hinting that Jordan might not be able to come out alive if he entered!
There were many secrets here. The Park family might kill Jordan to silence him after using him!
But Jordan was already prepared so he was not afraid.
"Jordan, I'm a little scared..."
Sylvie suddenly became rather timid. She held Jordan's hand as her entire body trembled. After all, Sylvie was just the wife of a man from a rich family. But the family was based in a small city. She did have some worldly experience but had never come into contact with someone so powerful.
"It's alright. I'm here," Jordan comforted her.
Taking Sylvie's hand, they walked forward slowly.
