MR. Jeon, The Heart Bandit | L.K Adaptation

Chapter 195: Side Story 1

Kim Seok Jin was the head of the neurology department of a private hospital in River Town.

Kim Jisoo had never seen him after Lisa and Jungkook's wedding until one day, when the police called her about her gambler father had been beaten until he was mentally disabled because of his debts.

The Chief neurologist at the hospital she went to told her that a former authority on the practice had resigned.

Jisoo knew that the person was Jin.

Even if there was some space between them, Jisoo felt that she didn't have to save face when it came to her father's condition.

Hence, she had her father transfer hospitals.

That night, Jin entered with her father's medical history and looked up coolly around him. "Are there any family members of Kim Chang Wan present?"

"Here!"

Jisoo shouted, raising her hand.

Their eyes meet. Jin frowned but soon as calm again, walking with one hand in his pocket to Kim Chang Wan to check his vitals and flashing a torchlight into his eyes.

He was just inches away, and though she had smelled the scent of antiseptic before, that was the first time she found it nice.

Jin then lowered his torchlight, turning to leave as he said, "Please come with me"

Jisoo followed after putting a blanket over Kim Chang Wan.

She then found Jin leaning on the wall with his gaze lowered at her. "Do you think your father deserves pity?"

Jisoo was taken aback since she did not expect such a private question.

"No. But I have a responsibility to care for him even if I hate him".

There was no choice she was his only daughter after all.

On the other hand, Jin had an inscrutable look on his face as if he was hesitating to say something.

"I'll perform a checkup tomorrow". He eventually muttered.

Jisoo was a little sad as she watched him strode off.

Was a patient's family member all he considered of her?

Really.

Man, your name might well be cold.

****

Midnight.

Jisoo only fell asleep after much difficulty on the narrow sickbed when she was jolted awake by waves of wailing.

She sat up, rubbed her eyes and opened the door.

There was a group of people crowding just outside the next room, each of them trying to look at the action inside.

Jisoo squeezed her way into the crowd to find a middle-aged man with a gruesome gap on his jugular, and blood shooting out of it.

Several nurses were flustered but helping, while Jin kept both his hands on the man's jugular, blood flowing freely between his fingers.

"Gauze"

"Suture"

Jin's face was somber as he rapidly sutured the gap, but the cut was too deep for him to work with.

Splat----

That was when the blood shot all over Jin's body.

His stark white coat, his face and glasses were all promptly dyed in blood.
