Lisa Lim nodded at the doctor as she said, "Okay." Her face remained calm and composed, as if she wasn't a person who was about to undergo surgery. She took the bill from the doctor and went to the first-floor counter to settle it, before beginning a series of examinations.

At 12:00 p.m. sharp, all the test results were ready. With no issues found, they scheduled the surgery for 3:00 p.m.

......

The baby had been due for a vaccination that morning, so by the time Rosè Jang got home with her it was already noon and past lunchtime. She put her down for her afternoon nap until Mother Jang arrived and took her to the Park Mansion just after two o'clock. It was only then that Rosè Jang changed and drove to the Park Company.

The receptionist recognized Rosè Jang. She smiled and called out, "Mrs. Park," when she saw her approaching, and then she swiftly ran to the elevator to escort her in. The elevator went straight to the top floor, where Rosè Jang emerged in a pair of high heels and headed for Park Jimin's office with ease.

Park Jimin must have informed his secretary about her arrival, as she was not surprised to see her. She instantly stopped what she was doing, stood up, and welcomed her. "Mrs. Park, you're here."

Rosè Jang hummed with a smile and looked past Park Jimin's open door. Seeing that there was no one in the office, her gaze then fell on the secretary's face again as she asked, "Where's Master Park?"

"Master Park is in a meeting. He had informed me that you were coming and instructed me to take you to your office," said the secretary.

Office? Did Park Jimin really arrange a job for me here at the Park Company?

A smile could be seen in her eyes, as she curled her lips and thanked the secretary.

"You're welcome, Mrs. Park. This way please," replied the secretary politely as she gestured for her to enter the door beside Park Jimin's office. After pushing open the door, what greeted Rosè Jang was a room that was even more luxuriously decorated than Park Jimin's office.

The secretary stood at the door without entering. She caught sight of the surprise in Rosè Jang eyes and started explaining to her with a smile, "Master Park had some people arrange this for you this morning."

"Is that so?" Rosè Jang curled her lips at the secretary. Before the latter could respond, she said politely, "Go and get busy if you have something else to attend to."

"Alright, Mrs. Park. You can reach me on the line directly if you need anything," replied the secretary.

"Okay." Rosè Jang smiled again. She only realized that the secretary had not informed her about her job scope after she had left and shut the door.

Forget it. I'll just ask Park Jimin later...

She leaned against the door and carefully inspected the office that was slightly larger than Park Jimin's office next door. There was a bouquet of her favorite roses on the table and, beside that, a plate full of cherries, a fruit she had especially enjoyed lately. A small box on her desk was filled with a variety of snacks. Most of them were what she ate at home. Even the curtain hanging over the window was one that she had pointed out to Park Jimin when they had been furniture shopping not too long ago.

An indescribable warmth filled Rose Jang, and her smiling eyes grew a little misty.

After reflectively scanning the room, Rose Jang  strolled to the desk. There was a nameplate beside the computer that instantly caught her eye. The photo on it was the work photo she had taken when she first joined PJS. Her name was written beside the photo: "Rosè Jang." Beneath that was her position: "Park Jimin's Wife."
