Jeon Jungkook

My life had always been divided into two distinct worlds, and I had to be a master of both. During the day, I was the ruthless CEO of Jeon Insight, an influential IT company in South Korea. But when the night descended upon Seoul, I transformed into the shadowy figure that controlled the city's underground as the mafia leader.

I stood on the spacious balcony of my opulent mansion, my gaze fixed on the city's bird view. The vibrant energy of Seoul was like a distant memory, something that belonged to the life I lived in daylight. At night, I was a different man, one whose very name struck fear into the hearts of those who dared to cross my path.

While I was lost in thought, a sharp ringtone shattered the tranquility of the moment "Jaehyun, what is it?" I barked, my voice echoing through the silent room.

Jaehyun, my six-year-old brother, rushed to me, his small hand clutching the ringing phone. With curiosity dancing in his innocent eyes, he handed it over, saying, "Hyung, it's for you."

I accepted the phone with a nod of thanks. "Thank you, little buddy." I recognized the caller ID as I answered. Jimin's voice flowed through the phone, reminding me of the upcoming meeting with Min Yoongi.

I leaned against the balcony railing, my expression firm as I replied, "No, Jimin. You're not disturbing me. Thank you for reminding me. The meeting is at 2 PM, right?" Jimin confirmed the time and location before I ended the call.

Turning to Jaehyun, I crouched down to his level. "Jaehyun, want to accompany me to the office today?"

His eyes sparkled with excitement, and his enthusiasm was infectious. "Yes, Hyung, yes!" he exclaimed, performing an impromptu dance of joy.

With a chuckle, I agreed, "Alright, little buddy, let's go!" We embarked on our journey to the office, his laughter filling the car and momentarily pushing away the shadows that lingered in my world.

Inside the sleek, modern office building, I separated from Jaehyun, allowing him to explore the corridors filled with cutting-edge technology. Meanwhile, I ventured into the conference room for a meeting with Min Yoongi and Jung Hoseok, his business partner.

The meeting was a web of tense negotiations and business strategies. I navigated it with the precision of a well-trained predator, ensuring Jeon Insight's interests were secured. My sharp mind and unwavering demeanor were on full display.

Once the meeting concluded, the formalities were cast aside, and we relaxed in the conference room, addressing each other informally.

"Jungkook, you've outdone yourself again," Yoongi praised, admiration in his eyes. "Your company's innovations never cease to amaze me."

Hoseok chimed in, "Indeed, Jungkook. You and Jimin make an incredible team."

Jimin grinned, and I acknowledged the compliment with a nod. Soon, our conversation shifted into a secret realm, discussing the intricate dealings of the mafia world-a domain known only to a select few.

IN THE CAFETERIA

Meanwhile, Jaehyun had found his way to the building's cafeteria.
He approached the counter, his youthful exuberance intact. "Can I get an ice cream?"
