âLet me take a look at a photo of her from her younger days,â 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.
âOh, my god, so beautiful! The boss will definitely reward you handsomely for finding such a top-notch candidate.â
Jin-woon smiled. âWe 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.â
Doctor Byung nodded. âYes, not bad. Donât worry, Iâll personally oversee the entire process this time. I wonât let anything happen to this lady.â
Doctor Byung finally noticed Jordan.
He asked Jin-woon, âWho is this man?â
Jin-woon replied, âHeâs this ladyâs son-in-law.â
Doctor Byung laughed out loud. âWhy did you bring her son-in-law here? Does he want to personally witness his mother-in-law entering the tigerâs den? Hahaha. Besides, you know that this is the Park familyâs private hospital. Outsiders are not allowed to know of this place. Arenât you afraid that he will be killed by the Park family if you let him in?â

With that, Doctor Byung said to Jordan in broken English, âIf you donât want to die, get lost!â
Jordan was a little annoyed and replied in Korean, âI will be going in with my mother-in-law.â
Jin-woon added. âYes, Doctor Byung. He can be this ladyâs interpreter.â
Disliking Jordanâs attitude, Doctor Byung snapped, âNo need! We have professional interpreters here. Make him leave!â
The Park familyâs medicine would definitely be well-hidden and secured. How could Jordan hope to steal it if he didnât go in?
Thinking on his feet, Jordan immediately said, âMy mother-in-law doesnât know how to speak standard English. She only knows how to speak a regional English dialect that is quite different. Iâm sure you donât have an interpreter who knows all the regional English dialects in the US, right?â
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.
âAlright, since youâre the only one who can translate, you can come in as well. However, I have to remind you that this isnât a place where anyone can enter and leave just like that.â
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.
âJordan, Iâm a little scaredâŠâ
Sylvie suddenly became rather timid. She held Jordanâs 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.
âItâs alright. Iâm here,â Jordan comforted her.
Taking Sylvieâs hand, they walked forward slowly.
However, Jin-woon did not follow them. He said, âMr. Steele, the medical aesthetics team is up ahead. Thatâs a place I canât enter. Iâll wait for you here.â
Jordan nodded and said nothing.
Sylvie and Jordan followed Doctor Byung step by step. Sylvie whispered to Jordan, âJordan, if I die here, you have to fulfill my dying wish!â
Jordan asked, âWhat is it?â.
This was the Park familyâs territory. Although Sylvie would not really die, if Jordan failed to bring her away with him, she would definitely end up being a plaything for Park Chan-young. If Sylvie had any last wishes, Jordan would be happy to help her fulfill them as a form of compensation.
âMarry Hailey.â
Jordan was speechless. âDonât worry. In order not to fulfill your dying wish, I promise to bring you out safely.â
Was Sylvie really stupid enough to believe that he would forgive Hailey and marry her again?
Soon enough, Jordan and Sylvie were brought into a strange and high-tech-looking elevator. The glass interior of the elevator alone amazed Sylvie. Doctor Byung did not press any button after they entered the elevator. But the elevator started moving by itself.
Not only could the elevator move up and down, it could also move left and right!
Sylvie was shocked. She squeezed Jordanâs hand tightly. âJordan, Jordan! Whatâs wrong with this elevator? Is it going left? Shouldnât elevators only move up and down? How can this elevator move left and right?â
Doctor Byung snorted in disdain at Sylvieâs shocked expression. âCountry bumpkin.â
However, he noticed that Jordan did not react at all when the elevator moved left and right. His expression remained the same and he did not look nervous or amazed.
âThis brat⊠hmph, he must be pretending to be calm!â Doctor Byung thought to himself.
In reality, Jordan already knew about this technology! In the Steele familyâs private hospital, there was also an elevator that could move left and right. This was no longer a new technology to the eight families. They already had it decades ago.
Jordan explained to Sylvie, âThis is the multi-directional elevator. There is no cable but the elevator is mounted on a metal track instead. Itâs powered by a straight-line engine and can bring us to different levels through magnetic acceleration. The elevator can also rotate at intersections along the track, so that we can move horizontally along the floor. Auntie, donât make a fuss. Itâs not a big deal. Donât let this South Korean look down on us!â
After Jordanâs explanation, Sylvie straightened her back and resumed her dignified posture.
Doctor Byung glanced at them. His English was not good so he did not really know what Jordan was saying.
Soon, the elevator door opened to reveal a spacious medical workspace. Dozens of people in doctorâs uniforms were busy working.
âThis is the medical aesthetics team of the Park familyâs private hospital!â
Jordan knew that they represented the worldâs top medical geniuses, especially in terms of medical aesthetics!
âIf only we could poach all these people to our side!â
As a Steele himself, Jordan really wanted to do something to help his family.
âCome with me.â
Doctor Byung said coldly to Jordan. He led them into a private room.
âDoctor Chul.â
Doctor Byung called out to the other doctor in the room.
âDoctor Byung.â Doctor Chul nodded at him. He glanced at Jordan and Sylvie. âYou have brought another one?â
There was a nod from Doctor Byung. âShe is someone whom the boss values very much. We must be very careful. Donât let anything happen to her, lest he blames us.â
Doctor Chul looked at Jordan. âWhy is this man here?â
