As she stirred the half-eaten avocado tapioca, she realized why Park Jimin had asked her to have dessert. She had not known that her body double could not eat mangoes.
Yoon Jane shifted her eyes. "Jimin, you might have misunderstood me. I did say I didn't like avocados, but that didn't mean I can't have any."
She continued defending herself to a silent Park Jimin, who took his cell phone out of his pocket and pressed some buttons on the screen.
Yoon Jane's phone rang twice on the table.
Without looking, Yoon Jane knew who had just sent her the text messages. She glanced at Park Jimin and hesitated before she picked up her phone to look at the screen.
It was a message from Park Jimin.
Yoon Jane paused her fingers on the screen for a few seconds before opening the messages.
Park Jimin had sent her two pictures. She zoomed in on them. One picture was of Wang Momo and her at the entrance to Wang Momo's complex. The other picture was her body double holding trash bags at Park Jimin's house.
The two pictures were shot within three minutes of each other. At first smiling at seeing herself in the photos, she quickly frowned.
Two pictures of me in two different places far from each other at the same time. How could Park Jimin have gotten these pictures? Has he suspected for a long time ago? Has he investigated me and discovered my secrets?
Yoon Jane began to panic as she tried to explain the pictures, but she was failing. She continued trying while looking directly at Park Jimin, but her words became so incoherent that she stopped talking.
Park Jimin did not want to hear excuses. He got directly to the point. "If you don't want to answer my previous question, it's all right. I'll ask you another question. What is her name?"
Yoon Jane did not move her lips at all this time. She remained silent but visibly thinking about what to say next—how to handle Park Jimin.
Park Jimin did not urge her to answer his question. He waited for her. He waited for ten minutes.
Having finally calmed down while considering her answer, Yoon Jane finally said, "Jimin, these pictures do not mean anything to me. It must be someone who tried to set me up. I..."
Park Jimin cut her off. "You don't want to answer my question."
"It's not that I don't want to answer—It's..."
Park Jimin interrupted her again, this time changing the subject. "Is everything in the house yours?"
Yoon Jane did not follow where Park Jimin was going with this question, but she eventually nodded and said, "Yes."
With no warning, Park Jimin kicked his chair out from under him and walked out of the room.
Yoon Jane's mind reeled. If he finds out I had a body double, he won't let it go easily. Is this why he changed the subject?
Yoon Jane suddenly heard a loud noise outside of the window. Now she knew why Park Jimin was acting so strangely.
She frowned in astonishment. Before she stood up, the housekeeper had already gone over and taken a look through the windows, then turned back to face her. The housekeeper was about to speak, but then hesitated, and in the end, only shouted, "Mrs. Park..."
"What's up?" Yoon Jane replied gently as she stood up. Before she went to the windows, she had heard some loud banging noises.
Yoon Jane furrowed her brows and moved faster.
