Chapter Eighty-Eight

THIRD PERSON's POV

"What? That's impossible!" Taehyung stood up in disbelief and slammed his fist down the table. Taehee sighed in frustration and stared at their record that strangely went down. Their sales never flopped for the past years of leading the most best-selling company in the whole country itself.

"Jeonhyun!" his deep and hard-core voice called them that's staring far away. He flinched and stood up pronto in front of him. Jeonhyun couldn't help to feel fear slowly building up his body, and nor is everybody else. Taehee was stressing out so bad while Young-hee turned quiet. Jungkook, at the other side, remained in silence as he let Taehyung take over.

"What the fuck happened?! How did we lose everything?!" he blasted, the tip of his ears turning red because of irritation and wrath.

Jonghyun rubbed his head in awe and looked down, unable to have eye contact with the burning CEO who blew up the whole room.

"Useless shits, do something!"

Jungkook watched his intimidating boyfriend shout at someone on the phone, couldn't even talk or say something to at least calm him down. He can't, they can't.

"Sir, we've been partnered out companies up for years and you'll just break the ties?" Taehyung closed his eyes and tried to give his most gentle voice to the investor he's currently talking to.

"Fuck everyone!" he grunted hand clenching into a fist. Sweat started showing up uncontrollably on his forehead, his mind almost exploding out of bitterness.

"Young-hee," he turned over the girl who didn't even bother to move her stares away. It took him multiple times to call her name before she went back to her senses.

"Y-yeah?" she fixed herself, sitting properly.

"Accept every investor who wanted to partner up with us in the list," ordered Taehyung, and sat down at his chair.

She nervously looked up, glancing up on Taehyung. "I'm sorry but...they're all gone as well," she whispered before lifting the iPad she's holding. She's right, the thousands of companies trying to be with their company now disappeared like a bubble.

"Oh my God, what should we do now?"  Taehee asked, taking a deep exhale. Taehyung furiously stared down at his hands, cracking his bones.

"We...do have an option."

Every single one inside the room looked up to where the voice came from and found out it was from Young-hee. Taehyung tilted his head at her and is ready to listen when she tapped the remote of the television and brought them up to a news channel. Increasing the volume, they all focused and listened.

"Jung Company that was held and created by the most influential person, Samantha Jung, broke the records that The Kim's Company had been leading for five years. Every single people and investor immediately hopped in at the lady CEO — which brought the company billions of sales."

"Samantha.." Taehyung growled, gripping the glass he's holding 'till it silently cracked.

Jungkook had his mouth a bit opened, heart-aching afterward. She was never a true person. This can be on purpose. Taehee had disappointment rushing in her eyes, annoyance, and irritation filling his mind. Jeonhyun had his lips pressed, sitting firmly on the couch.

And Young-hee, who casually looked at the screen, was not surprised for this to happen. She's been eager to destroy the two, so she expected this already.

"Taehyung-ssi." she turned at the mad boy and sighed.

"You have to partner up with Samantha to bring the sales back again."
