ARDOR

27. Turning tables

Chirping of sparrows led me to open my eyes. Rubbing the corner of them I fling off the blanket. Cold breeze passed my back as there was no one on the other side of the bed. As expected he was gone.

I sighed as the clock marked seven in the morning. Looks like he left even before anyone could find out. I sat straight and looked outside the window. A question arises in my mind, until when are we supposed to hide it? I sighed and went downstairs. I found Jimin inspecting the doorknob of the main door suspiciously. I went closer and tapped on his shoulder to gain his attention.

"Is something wrong?"

Jimin got startled and said, "Oh you have woke up. When I came down, the door was wide open but I remember checking it twice before sleeping. We are not robbed then what could have happen?"

"Y-You are thinking too much. Maybe you could have not c-checked it right. You overwork these days so I think you missed it."

Jimin sighed crossing his arms. "I think so. Forget it. Let's have breakfast."

I nodded and proceeded towards the table. How could I tell you Jimin that it was Jungkook who came last night. That idiot left it open. I was not in the mood to even have my favourite brownie let alone the cheese sandwich. Just the mere thought of spending this whole week with the upcoming weekend without Jungkook was disturbing me.

Jimin was equally distracted. Concern was visible on his long face as he sighed at equal intervals.

"Is something worrying you?"

"Not me but my boss, Jungkook. All the staff are working ten times more then ever before. The loss is of billions and our position in stock market is continuously dropping."

"That's why you are not staying home again?"

"Yes. I could stay there and contribute more. I don't know what Jk is feeling. This drastic damage plus today's hearing will definitely give him some hard time." Jimin exclaimed.

"Everything will be alright. Just believe in yourself. Is that Yoongi or whatever that strong?"

"He was after our project since before. I should have understood when he asked me about this project on my visit to Daegu. He could do anything to win," said Jimin while gritting his teeth.

I said,"It's okay. For now eat properly Oppa, you need energy to fight bad."

I playfully gestured him by swinging a fisted arm to my right. It actually worked to ease his anxiety as he chuckled on my five year old kid action.

Waving goodbye Jimin quickly drove off to infinity. A cold wind blew swiftly with a whistling sound. The fallen leaves were flying in the enormous atmosphere. A shiver ran down my spine at the sight of empty street and why not? The neighbours were gone to Florida while others were hitting beaches, amusement park, restaurant etc and here I am ready to spend the time with books and k-dramas.

JUNGKOOK'S POV

I remembered covering Y/N yesterday with the blanket. I pecked her forehead and she was cutely hummed.

Today's hearing went smoothly in favour of Jeons. I was able to see gritting teeth of Min. He was blown on how I was able to turn the tables. I smirked because few days back I planned to collect the proof against him.

That day I was in a hurry to reach the night club at the countryside. That club was under Min industry. Yoongi texted me to meet him there. I arrived late at the given location because of heavy traffic.

A waiter was leading the way to the room where that bastard was waiting. I had to admit this club got some nice interior but too bad, the lighting was dark with red light dulling it's beauty. The more I was getting close the more painting hung on the wall. Men and women were eating eachother to the fullest in lust as the smoke of cigarettes filled the air. The waiter knocked on the door and a husky low pitched voice ordered us to enter.

Leaving me alone waiter bid his bye as I could see my rival sitting with some strippers around him.

Yoongi smirked looking at me. He said,"Ladies, excuse us."

All the strippers left the room. It was just us with a faint music of violins. He poured wine in two glass gesturing me to take a seat.

"Give me a damn reason to not kill you!"

Yoongi whistled and said,"Calm down man! You don't want anything to happen to your girl right?" He poured himself another shot. He took a sip, enjoying the view on my face. I somehow controlled myself from blowing up and shoot him with the gun I had my ankle.

Knitting the eyebrows I warned him. "Don't mess with fire if you don't know how to handle it."

Yoongi chuckled, "Ohh! So it was true that you fell in love for a weakling and here I thought all the spies went crazy to tell me such nonsense thing about you."

I clenched my fists and said,"Come to the point. Why have you called me?"

"I thought you knew. Take the case back and I won't lay a finger on your sex toy." Now it was getting out of my hands. How dare he called my girl like that. No one wad allowed to disrespect Jungkook's property. But before I could shoot him I reminded myself about the mission of me secretly recording our conversation.

Yoongi further continued, "You know, I know but the world doesn't. Sign these contracts off and this whole drama would end here."

"Huh! After making me suffer a vast loss you think you can make it to square one. Never. You are still to face my beast."

" I still have enough proof of what you did to Mr. Choi's daughter and other girls."

"Try it. Try all you can but nothing will work. No one believes a liar. Prepare yourself. Tomorrow Min industry would not exist." After saying that I left that place and reached the company. There I edited the audio excluding about the case related to Mr. Choi and Y/N.

Next day the hearing started and the lawyer I hired was handling the case very smoothly and the evidence I collected did the work like a cherry on the cake.

At last like always I won and Yoongi went bankrupt with a sentence of ten year jail. He was cursing and giving me glares. But did I cared? No.

Now the main point for me was to raise the value of Jeon industry in the stock market and get it placed back at it's effective position. Swiping the phone out of my pants I dialled the secretary's number. I told him to arrange meetings with the willing businessmen who were eligible for dumping their money into the pit of investments. They would be so stupid to invest in the name of partnership that they would never realise how I would swipe away all the profits under my name.

This work would take a damn period of a month. I won't be able to stay with my babygirl but that didn't meant I'll leave her free. My men would always keep an eye around her. Of course not on her, as only I had the right to look at her.

Smirking through the way out I went out. Press was already waiting for my arrival. Who wouldn't know what happened in the court? But they already knew that this Jeon was never served with any no before.

I began walking calmly while my bodyguards cleared me a path to walk on, by blocking the news reporters and the cameramen. Tomorrow the world would know what it's like to mess with me.

Driver started the engine and we drove off to the company for the upcoming never-ending business deals for one whole month.
