Patience & Scrutiny
For every person that has ever come into contact with Sohn Ryu, there is one thing they can all agree to . . .Try very hard not to piss him off.
His family knew it best, blood never spared them from his rage. Jaeul, perhaps the dearest family member he had left, had seemingly vanished from the face of the earth. He called, and called, and called some more, yet the teen had not responded. It was odd. Typically, the most that would past was a few hours, at most, not days.
A very small part of him thought that her branch of the family had ordered her to cease contact with him. His refusal to comment in that article was spun as he thought. It was made to seem that CJ wouldn’t stand up for Samsung, that generations later the feud lived on.
Nonsense, of course.
Ryu and Seunghoon were fine. They weren’t taking vacations together but they were fine. Jaeul, on the other hand, had a great relationship with Ryu but he could understand if the elders frowned, especially now.
Someone was going to have to tell him that, in person. Until then, her absence and refusing his calls irritated him, making him feel like he was begging for her time. He had never begged for anything and he wasn’t about to chase a nineteen-year-old, no matter how much he loved her.
That’s what he told himself at least.
Yet he had her followed, mapping a pattern, and when he found out she was at her university, he sat outside, parked the Bentley right in front of the Range Rover that was waiting to whisk her back to a home he could not follow her to. Beside him, Paws sat, chewing at a milk bone, perfectly content.
He would give her another fifteen minutes before he went inside and carried her out. Fifteen minutes more to sit and stew in his anger.
