JIMIN POV

Reluctantly, Gia drags her
greedy eyes away from my
man and smiles down at me.

Does she think I'm not going
to notice?

"Sure." she acquiesces pleasantly.

"Any other issues?"

Other than you eye-fucking
my husband?

"Jungkook wants to remodel
the master suite." I murmur.

There's a discreet cough from
the entrance to the great room.

We three turn as one to find Taylor standing there.

"Taylor?" Jungkook asks.

"I need to confer with you on
an urgent matter, Mr Jeon."

Jungkook clasps my shoulders from behind and addresses Gia.

"Mr Jeon is in charge of this project."

"He has absolute carte
blanche."

"Whatever he wants, it's his."

"I completely trust his instincts."

"He's very shrewd."

His voice alters subtly.

In it I hear pride and a veiled warning, a warning to Gia?

He trusts my instincts?

Oh, this man's exasperating.

My instincts let him run roughshod over my feelings this afternoon.

I shake my head in frustration but I'm grateful that he's telling Miss Provocative And Good-At-Her-Job just who's in charge.

I caress his hand as it rests on my shoulder.

"If you'll excuse me."

He squeezes my shoulders
before following Taylor.

I wonder idly what's going on.

"So the master suite?" Gia
asks nervously.

I gaze up at her, pausing for a moment to ensure that Jungkook and Taylor are out of earshot.

Then calling on all my inner strength and the fact that I've been seriously piqued for the
last five hours, I let her have it.

"You're right to be nervous, because right now your work on this project hangs in the balance"

"But I'm sure we'll be fine as long as you keep your hands
off my husband."

She gasps.

"Otherwise, you're fired."

"Understand?"

I enunciate each word clearly.

She blinks rapidly, utterly stunned.

She cannot believe what I've
said, I cannot believe what I've just said.

But I hold my ground, gazing impassively into her widening brown eyes.

Don't back down.

Don't back down!

I've learned this maddening impassive expression from Jungkook who does impassive like no one else.

I know that renovating the Jeon's main residence is a prestigious project for Gia's architectur-al firm a resplendent feather in
her cap.

She can't lose this commission.
