Brace yourself people, it's a huge chapter with mixed emotions and thank you for taking your time for reading this😔✨❤️

At a single glance, one could tell how much amount of money has been tossed by Jung to host such an extravagant party. The perimeter was scintillating with golden lights bestowing the onlookers with the zeal of architecture craved on the wooden walls. The ambrosial waves of the sweets and alcohol set on the expensive silks embraced everyone with a tender hug, it's a shame that the harmonical music was muffled by the chatter of the people.

"Never have I ever thought I would be holding a conversation with a Min, I'm beyond glad that you accepted my invitation," Said Hoseok, cheeks raising in a smile.

"I'm flattered, Mr.Jung. If anything after seeing you handle the case, I'm pleased to have this meeting with you," Y/n replied addressing the Han gyeol case. She might be salty about what happened but that doesn't capture her from complimenting his talent.

Sixteen minutes have passed since Hoseok and Y/n engaged in the conversation, Jimin had introduced them both before excusing himself to participate with other attendees, as of the rest, they were nowhere to be seen.

"About that is why I requested your presence today, I have a proposal if you'd like," Hoseok proffered earning Y/n's full attention, "Yes?"

"The praise of the Mins are carried all across Seoul but I do not trust something until my eyes perceive, Mrs.Park. . .and I am ought to say, you are far more than what I've heard," He continued aligning his eyes with hers.

"I would like to propose a partnership agreement," She didn't reply rather gaze into Hoseok's eyes with thoughts prowling behind her head. What might be the motivate for such a proposal?

She might've worked with him in the past month but that didn't grant her to have a conversation on similar ground and today has showered her with the opportunity only to find out the man carries a loathe towards her. It could be the case, it could be his instincts or it could be in his blood (like Yoongi), but there was visible hate.

To tell the truth, Y/n herself does have a small weight of hate towards Jung which roots its way from Jimin rather than the case. She remembers the bitterness Jimin expressed towards her Incorporation and firms when Yoongi negotiated with him because her place in the solar system of corporate was the Pluto but he was very welcoming about the contract with Jung who represent the meteorites. The partiality was astonishing.

"That's a huge proposal you have there, Mr.Jung which is totally inappropriate for this environment. I have to discuss it with the board and people, that is if I accept the offer which I don't," Hoseok was caught by surprise due to her immediate rejection.

"Will you not grant me the pleasure of a second thought?"

"I'm afraid not," Y/n didn't dismiss the proposal because of her personal detest, that would be foolish. She did because the Mins does not like sharing and she had seen Yoongi as well as her foster father decline such approach.

"I'll be straightforward with you. I thought you became a Park to indulge further with your husband," There comes the scorning dislike he holds, Y/n could just wonder why.

"It might be a political marriage but my husband and I like to keep our personal and professional life separate"

"Just so you know, the offer's always on the table"

"I wouldn't mind denying it another time," They shared a moment of silence eyeing each other awkwardly before Hoseok excused himself, "Well then I'm afraid I have to leave. Please enjoy the party"
