leverage

Min-Soo's face hardened once again, determination flaring in his eyes. "We will," he said, his voice steady. "But first, you need to understand how serious this is. If anything happens to Felix because of your oversight…" He let the threat hang in the air, heavy with implication.

"I get it," Rowoon said, locking eyes with Min-Soo. "I messed up. But I'll make it right, I promise."

With a brief nod of acknowledgment, Min-Soo turned toward the exit. "Let's move. We don't have time to waste."

Rowoon followed, a tightness in his chest that felt more like a fire igniting than a weight bearing him down. He had a mission now, a flicker of purpose in the turmoil—and he would do whatever it took to find Felix.

Rowoon's eyes blazed with determination as he vowed to himself, "Whoever kidnapped Felix will pay dearly for their actions. Any pain they've caused him, I'll make them suffer tenfold."entering into the car he drove of with Min-Soo, following where the tracker leads.

Felix gasped, doubling over from the impact of the punch to his stomach. He regretted his earlier bravado, realizing he should have kept his mouth shut. A wave of nausea washed over him, and he lunged forward, emptying the contents of his stomach – which, unfortunately, was nothing, since he hadn't eaten before leaving the hotel.

He cursed Agussihyung, the grumpy old man responsible for his current predicament. Meanwhile, Felix's couldn't help but cause Rowoon also silently praying he noticed his absence.

Felix still clutched his stomach, wincing in pain, when the door burst open. Seungmin strode in, his face etched with tension, causing Jiso to flinch in fear. However, she quickly regained her composure, a determined glint in her eye.

She knew this was her chance to prove her worth to Seungmin, to show him she was more than just a captive. With a deep breath, Jiso steeled herself, her expression transforming into one of resolute determination.

What the fu**k do you think you are doing ," seungmin shouted .he couldn't believe his stupid sister could actually kidnap Rowoon boy.all his plan will all go to wast.

_SMACK!!!_

The loud _SMACK!!!_ of Seungmin's hand on Jiso's face echoed through the room, making everyone gasp in shock. Felix, still clutching his stomach in pain, felt a twisted urge to laugh and ask Jiso how it felt to be on the receiving end of a slap. But the agony radiating from his own abdomen kept him silent, reminding him that he had problems of his own.

Jiso's hand flew to her cheek, her eyes wide with shock and disbelief. "You slapped me!" she exclaimed, her voice trembling. "Why would you do that?"

Seungmin's expression remained unforgiving. "Why won't I?" he retorted, his voice cold.

His gaze shifted to Felix, and his finger jabbed accusingly in his direction. "What the hell is he doing here?" Seungmin demanded, his tone dripping with hostility..

Jiso's eyes followed Seungmin's gaze to Felix, who was still hunched over, clutching his stomach. "He...he was kidnapped," Jiso stammered, trying to explain.

Seungmin's expression darkened further. "Kidnapped?" he repeated, his voice laced with skepticism. "And who kidnapped ?"

Felix, sensing an opportunity to diffuse the situation, slowly straightened up, wincing in pain. "It's true," he said, his voice weak but determined. "I was taken on my way this morning ."by jiso. "I don't know what kind of game she's playing," he wincs from the pain,"

Seungmin's expression transformed, a sly and mischievous smile spreading across his face as he gazed at Jiso. "Well, well, well," he said, his voice dripping with malice. "Looks like fate has brought us a little gift."

His eyes gleamed with cunning as he turned his attention to Felix. "With you here, I can use you as leverage to get to Rowoon," Seungmin said, his smile growing wider. "And once I have him right where I want him..."

Jiso's eyes widened in alarm as she realized Seungmin's intentions. "No, you can't!" she protested, but Seungmin just chuckled, clearly relishing the prospect of using Felix as a pawn in his game.
