Dark Princess

Could Be

“Drey, we have to investigate about Denise Kim. Find out the detailed information about him. Family, parents, country of origin, place of birth, blood type...  Anyway everything about him. Don't miss a single one. And oh, has he lived in Seoul for a long time? If not, before he lived where and why.  Anything about Denise Kim. If possible, get all the photos, start photos of her childhood, adolescence, and... Oh... Please check in the missing persons search, at the police station, whether the DNA is registered.”

"Ready boss. For information, I once found him sitting alone in the church garden. On the bench where Miss Jade usually sat. As soon as he saw Jade coming, he left in a hurry.”.

"When that?"

“About 3 or 4 weeks ago. Around the time of Gaia Kim's wedding. I was thinking maybe she was tired and sitting there, after taking care of her son's wedding ceremony. ”

Makes sense. Because the blessing of Gaia's marriage was held in that church.

Or maybe it has something to do with Jade? Maybe he was wondering, was his own son - - - who he had thrown away, if it were true that Jade - would hold such a grand wedding party as well? Because he was busy taking care of the princess' wedding. Must be a little ngenes imagine the fate of the princess he had thrown away, right? Because, why did he have to leave once Jade came? In a hurry?

Should I meet Gaia to just scrape the information? And another question arises. Was it Gaia, or perhaps Denise Kim who hired Jade to the company? But difficult Earnest, are you willing to meet the woman***** that? Just apologize he hasn't been to Jade. Why should I be nice to her for information that I should be able to find myself? I canceled my intention to meet Gaia. I can't forgive him yet. And probably never will, unless he begs and asks Jade for forgiveness.

...

It only took one day, Drey stood in front of me to present a bunch of information about Denise Kim that she had obtained. I can imagine, in addition to contacting all the related networks that could provide the information, he must be overtime to formulate the random information into a systematic.

We studied those files. All the information about Denise Kim is very standard. Nothing is strange. After a long time in that ruseful world, I know, it's all a fabrication. Before marrying her husband who is a famous person, she must improve her life history first, making her story as normal as possible. Like most humans. So there are no strange smells.

Interestingly, his photos while still in France show that he came from a simple family, even classified as poor. He attended public schools and attended universities that provided education for the family could not afford. But true, he is of Korean French descent. His father was French, his mother was Korean. From the photos, it is clear, they are very lacking. The clothes in each photo are simple clothes such as jeans and shirts or shirts that are just that.

But there was a big change when he graduated from university. It makes a little bit of sense, probably because he's already got a job. But what job caused such a huge change to the economic conditions of his family? The background of each photo is very different. If it was their residence, then it was very suspicious. They live in a luxurious house with expensive furniture. Family photos taken during festive occasions such as Thanksgiving, birthdays and Christmas, are very different. There is a wide variety of food that is luxurious and more than enough on the table. Some are even set against the backdrop of vacation spots and luxury hotels. It happened about, like, 20 years ago. Typical old photographs, print washed results complete with date, month and year printed on the edge of the copy of each photo.

Wait a minute, if 20 years ago, it was Jade 24. It's not synchronous. While the date shown in the photo is the most legit evidence. It can't be made up. I also crossed that possibility. Maybe because I was too focused on Denise Kim, I forgot there was another possibility, that they had absolutely nothing to do. I breathe heavily. It's annoying that the search goes back to zero again. Looking for new possibilities to investigate.

I went back to checking those files. A lot of questions popped up in my mind.

“Drey, tell me, how did you deduce all this information? I missed something important. What about the wedding? Is papa Gaia the first?”

“True boss, this is his first marriage. I've learned from the information found in the Immigration departments of these two countries. Both in South Korea and in France. And in the photos I've collected from Denise Kim's social media and any news platform that's about her, the internet or print, there was no record of a man close to her other than Min Jun Kim. His close people were only around his parents and friends at school and university. No special close friends, especially men.”.

Means he's not married, with a rich man, or any of those men. The big question. How do they get rich? Or simply put, how could their life circumstances change drastically? Is it because of winning gambling? Or heritage?

"Other information, Drey? Distant brothers for example? Or fantastic events in his life like suddenly entered into the ranks of the richest people, or...?"

"There's no such information boss..."

“What about his family in France? How do they get money to live?”

“His mother was a teacher at an immigrant school in France, as a French Language Teacher. And his father was unemployed..."

"But you understand what I mean, don't you, Drey? Why can they suddenly look like people are wealthy, you could say, their money is enough to be able to live like that..."

"I understand boss. And the other strange thing is, the photo, as they celebrate Christmas along with fancy dishes and in a luxurious place, is the last photo they look in complete formation, as a family. There was his father, his mother and Denise Kim when he was young. Her mother died of a heart attack 14 years ago. After that, he came to South Korea. In the span of time from the family's Christmas celebrations until his mother died, no information was found. It was as if that time for approximately a year had vanished from their lives. They seem to have migrated to Mars. No photos or records of anything, anywhere. I just concluded that she helped her mother as a teacher at an immigrant school. And for his father, there was no specific information. But from an informant, I get information, his father once won money from gambling, in fantastic amounts. This family is quite famous among immigrants from South Korea in France, Denise Kim they nicknamed the poor beauty because of having a drunk and abusive father. They even still knew her when she married Min Jun Kim. But there is no track record for it. Just a typical rumour rumor gossip neighbor.”

Oh, it turned out to win the gamble. Makes sense. Gambling money often does not last long. Moreover, they did not intend to manage well. At the blink of an eye, all collapsed and the winner of the judge returned destitute. It could even be more desperate than before.

Could be.
