Suzy: Oh no, I ran out of spring onion. I have to go out and get it.

I turned off the stove and left a small note on the table. Then I went to the market.

A little while later

Author's pov

She arrived and entered the store. She bought spring onion and some other snacks. She paid and left the store.

She was on her way back home..

Suzy's pov

I was heading home when I sensed someone trailing me. I shrugged it off, thinking it was unlikely on such a deserted street.

All of a sudden... a scream escaped my lips and everything went dark.

Some time later

I came to and squinted at the light. I realized I was in a strange place. When I attempted to move, I felt the ropes binding me to the chair. I caught a glimpse of someone approaching me.

Suzy yelled: Please, help me! I'm tied up here!

? : You're finally awake.

Suzy: Who are you?

? : Oh, honey, don't yell.

Suzy: Who the hell are you?

? : I'm Hazel.

Suzy: That name rings a bell. Oh, you're the one who's obsessed with my husband.

Hazel grabbed her neck.

Hazel: Say he's your husband one more time and I'll end you.

Suzy stayed quiet.

Hazel: Have fun. I've got things to do.

With that, she left

Hyunjin's pov

I got up, took a shower, changed, and came downstairs, only to see a note from Suzy in the fridge.

Note - I'm going to the market to get some veggies.

Hyunjin: Oh crap, if he (Sunghoon) finds out I let her go alone, he'll kill me.

I grabbed my keys and locked the house and left.

I got in my car and drove as fast as I could to the store. When I asked the cashier if he had seen a girl with long hair and fair skin with a butterfly tattoo on her hand, he said she had left an hour ago. That's when I realized she was gone. I took out my phone and called Sunghoon.

Sunghoon's pov

I was on my plane when Hyunjin called me. I answered and before I could say anything, he said:

Hyunjin: Suzy, I mean,  sister is missing.

Sunghoon: What? How?

Hyunjin told him everything.

Sunghoon: You idiot, go look for her. I'll be there in an hour.

With that, I hung up.

Hyunjin's pov

After talking to him, I called all our bodyguards and people to search for her. I also asked for the footage of the cameras nearby.

Some time later

I was watching the video footage of the nearby store when I noticed a large feminine figure following her. When I looked closely, I recognized her.

Hyunjin: Hazel! She must have abducted her!

That thought made me panic. It was almost time for Sunghoon to arrive. I texted him everything and headed to Hazel's company branch.

Some time later

I got there and luckily I spotted her at the entrance. But before I could reach her, I saw someone sprinting towards her and hitting her as he got there. It was none other than Sunghoon.

Sunghoon's pov

I was at the airport when I got a text from Hyunjin saying:

(I saw the video of the store. Hazel was trailing her. I think she kidnapped , sister.)

I snatched the car keys from the driver's hand and drove as fast as I could to Hazel's company branch. I saw her outside. I ran towards her and hit her.

Sunghoon: Where is she?

Hazel: Who?

Hyunjin came from behind.

Hyunjin: Don't play dumb. We know you kidnapped her.

Hazel: Oh, that's nice. But sadly, she's dead.

Sunghoon: Nice try. I know you can't kill her.

Hazel: And why do you think that?

Sunghoon: You swore before that until you marry me, you would never kill or order anyone to kill someone. And a true mafia never breaks his word.

Hazel: Oh, so you remember that. But you still married someone else. You never cared about me.

Sunghoon: I already told you before the wedding that I love someone else.

Hazel: Too bad. I won't tell you where she is.

Hyunjin: Stop beating around the bush. Tell us or else.

Hazel: Or else what? You'll kill me? Go ahead. But remember, this is my company and there are hundreds of cameras around.

Hyunjin was about to hit her again, but Sunghoon stopped him.
