Love and Blood [Kim Taehyung FF]

Chapter 9- Where were you?

[Next day, Han Group]

"Chairman Han Ji-hun, I'm sorry for my yesterday's behavior. I was completely out of my mind after doctor Kang's death. I forgot how much you helped and supported me. I'm sorry" Jae-hyun apologized while handing over the basket which contained flowers and rich wine. Ji-hun at first was surprised by this behavior of his but eventually gave up and trusted him but that was the worst mistake he ever made in his life

"Doctor Jae-hyun, if you had done this earlier maybe then I wouldn't have to raise my voice at you. I'm sorry too" Ji-hun replied with a smile

"Firstly, you have to gain Ji-hun's trust in such a way that he'll tell you everything"

"Any news about Jeong Jae-hyun?" I asked while eating to which Jimin shook his head

"I'm sure there has to be a reason! Out of all the highly qualified doctors, Chairman Ji-hun choose Kang Don-soo's assistant? He's not even that good of a doctor" Jungkook spoke and he had a point. We nodded in response. Other's focused on their eating while my mind was still occupied with what Taehyung told me earlier.

"Why would I lie to you?" Did he really mean it? Somewhere I feel like he's lying, somewhere I feel like I shouldn't think about it. Why do I care even if he's not a businessman? What will he be instead? Kidnapper? Money robber? Argh! I brought was back to reality when I heard Taehyung excusing himself to attend a call. I followed him out to listen to his conversation.

"Hello? Yes, Burn them down, we don't need it anymore. Oh really?... Wait.... Oh okay... I'll be there in 5 to 10 minutes..... yes.... okay" Taehyung spoke. He's going somewhere. He came inside and said he has to go somewhere while I followed him. I know I shouldn't follow him but I'm still not satisfied. 

It was about 10 minutes since I've been following him. He walked down a dark alley and to be honest it was kind of creepy and it gave me goosebumps. I was too engrossed in looking here and there when I realized Taehyung wasn't here. At this moment I was scared, without thinking I was about to turn around and head back when I bumped into someone. Looking up, I saw Taehyung giving me a death glare which gave shivers down my spine

"Ms. Y/n, what are you doing here?" he asked while holding onto my arm

"I... I was... I'm walking here and I... I was...."

"Following me?" he spoke while I looked away not wanting to maintain eye contact. He grabbed me by my both arm and made me look at him. That's when I realized he was mad.

"Look at me while I'm asking you something! I already told you to trust me but you won't! You know that's why I never wanted to take you help! Because even if I somehow manage to bring the evidence all you do is irritate me by asking how I brought this! If I'm giving you documents or anything related to the case just accept it instead of questioning me!" He yelled at me making me flinch. Unknowingly, a tear rolled down my eyes seeing which he scoffed

"And don't expect to earn sympathy from me by crying! I'm not like those stupid other men who'll become soft after seeing you crying! Next time you do something like this, I swear things won't be pretty! Don't judge me by just seeing my one side" He threatened me and finally let go of my arm. I noticed my sleeves were torn, why wouldn't they be, after how harshly he grabbed me. yes, it was my fault. I should've trusted him. Not wanting to argue more, I said,

"I'm sorry" and left before he could say anything else.

"Her sleeves were torn and she was crying too. Was I too harsh? But she shouldn't have followed me right? It wasn't completely her fault, but why am I feeling bad? Argh! Taehyung let's just go and finish the work! She's no one other than my lawyer. Once my work is done, I'll leave Korea forever"  Taehyung thought but little did he know that soon everything he said will be proved wrong and he'll be the one to prove it wrong.

"Chairman Ji-hun, may I ask why were those people killed?" Jae-hyun asked while giving the medicines to Ji-hun

"You want to know? Fine, I'll tell you"

Taehyung's POV:

After finishing my work I was on my way to law firm since Jimin said he was there too. It was nearly freezing outside. Reaching the law firm, I found Jimin and Jungkook discussing something but Ms. Y/n was nowhere to be found. Removing my coat, I went and sat beside. Maybe she's in her room? I was anxious 

"Where's Ms. Y/n?" I asked Jungkook

"She's isn't home yet"

"What do you mean she isn't home yet!?" I almost yelled while they looked at me with confused faces trying to understand the situation

"You mean she hasn't come home since morning?" I asked and Jungkook nodded. By this time, I was worried to death. Where is she? I shouldn't have left her alone. Why can't I control on my anger!? 

"Taehyung, she'll come home. Jungkook told me that she sometimes stays out for long time. It's okay" Jimin said patting my back

"But she didn't inform you did she?" I asked and both of shook their head in a 'no'. That was enough for me to get more worried. Without wasting more time, I grabbed my coat and left. It was freezing outside and as far as I remember she wasn't wearing any coats. I started running and searched for her on the streets. For the first time, I feared something. Fear of loosing someone. But why am I feeling this way? 

Running here and there through the busy streets, Ms. Y/n was nowhere to be found. Jimin kept calling me but I didn't answer. The only thing on my mind now was Ms. Y/n. Among the people, my eyes caught sight of a familiar. It was Ms. Y/n. Without thinking twice, I ran up to her, pulled her closer to me and hugged

End of POV 

On my way back home from the court of justice, I saw Taehyung standing far away and looking at me on the street. What is he doing here? The next thing I knew was that, he pulled me close to him and hugged me. My head rested on his chest while his head on my shoulder. I couldn't process what to do, it was all of a sudden, but somewhere I felt safe.

"Where were you? Why didn't you come home? I was so worried!" he spoke. Worried? He was worried for me? But why?

"Taehyung-g, I was at the court of justice, to file a case and collect the details for the days of hearing and all" I replied while he hugged me more tightly

"I'm sorry for the morning. I didn't mean to do it. I'm so sorry-y" Unknowingly, a smile crept on my face. I rubbed his back.

"It's okay, I should've trusted you" 

Maybe I should tell her that I'm a mafia. Jimin asked me not to disclose my identity but why don't I want to lie to Ms. Y/n? Why? Should I tell her? Will she hate me then? Taehyung thought

"Ms. Y/n, I've something to tell you-u" Taehyung pulled away from the hug and starred into my eyes. Why did I feel like he was about to tell me something? His eyes said he's been hiding something and now he's desperate to reveal something. 

"Yes?"

"I'm a..."
