" Lisa for god's sake...can u think of it with a calm mind? " " Kook. I- " " I know it all Lisayah...But still! What u behaved was absurd.. and we don't even have justifications for it. The video of u mistreating Jennie is all over the internet and is the hot gossip of everyone. " He took a deep breath.

" At least not for yourself but think of Taehyung... He built this company, he invested so much into it... Few investors have already stopped investing. And others are refusing to deal with us. If that's how everything is going... Our company would drown. " He tried to maintain a steady voice. " And at least for now, we can't let the deal with JennieRubyJane.Coperations go... " Lisa gasped. " There's no way, I'll allow that woman to hang around my Taehyung. " " Lisayahh! Try to understand. " " No- "

" One day or the other, he's gonna figure out everything and he deserves too. He should be knowing what exactly happened. We can't let him be forever curious and hide him from her. Right? And also the second point... We can't drag out personal matters in business affairs. We can't hold on to grudges when we're doing business. " He held her hands and tried his best to convince her. She sighed, trying to figure out another way to correct the mess.

Jungkook :
I think that worked.
But she needs some time to understand.

Taehyung :
Thank you
It's fine, until that we must've
already completed the deal.

There was a doorbell and Jennie rushed to open, as barely someone knew where she lived. She looked at the video doorbell to find that a man dropped a sealed envelope near her doorstep.

She slides her fingers all around the envelope wondering who must have send on. On opening it....

She finishes reading and smiles as she realizes that she'd still get to see Taehyung daily.

Taehyung was grabbing a coffee as he saw a familiar figure entering the building. And unconsciously his lips curved into a little smile. But he hid it before anyone could notice.

" Err Mam we're sorry, but Lisa madam gave us instructions not to allow you in the building... " The security stopped her unknowingly. Before she could show him the letter. " Let her come in. " Taehyung replied coldly. " But sir- " " I SAID LET HER COME IN. " He howled making Jennie flinch a little. " I'm sorry mam, you can go. " " It's fine. Thank you. "

'He never yelled at anyone before. He changed a lot..' Jennie thought as she saw the new identity of him.

Meanwhile the other staff were busy doing their stuff as it was the daily chaos of Taehyung being cold af CEO.

" You shouldn't have yelled. He was just doing his job and obeying what Lisa said. " Jennie whispered but she was left dumbfounded.

Taehyung with his long legs escalated quickly before Jennie could reach him.

Hours later....

" Taehyung... It's lunch time. " Jungkook knocked the door reminding Taehyung as he was busy in meeting with Jennie. He nodded.

" Okay then we're done with this. Just look into it later on. And I'll be off. Thank you. " " Yes sure. Um.. Let's have lunch together with everyone...? " He ended with a question mark and with unsurity that he shouldn't be suggesting that. " No it's fine. I'm go- " " I insist. " He muttered before she could complete. " It would be awkward Taehyung. " " No it won't. Please? " That was the first time Jennie heard him request and see his puppy eyes after years, it impossible to refuse it.

-

As soon as Lisa saw Jennie coming at the table. She banged the chopsticks on the table and stood up. Jungkook grabbed her hands and whispered, " Please Lisa, for Tae. "

Hearing for Taehyung, she rolled her eyes and sat. " Hey Ms.Jennie! It's nice to see you at lunch together. " " Likewise. " She smiled. " Can we please drop the formalities as we have  already known each other? " " As you please. " He smiled back.

" Where's everyone? " " Jin hyung is busy in meetings. Jisoo Noona is on her way with Ae-Ra. Foodsé has too many orders today and Jimin doesn't wanna join without her. " He explained and he nodded. " Let's start? " He glanced at Jennie checking if she's okay.

Few Mins later...

" Samchon!! " A little girl came running towards Taehyung and hugged him by his legs. " Hi Ae-Ra! You look cute today. " He picked her up and made her sit on his lap. " I look cute everyday. " She winked making everyone chuckle.

" Eomma who is she? " She pointed towards the girl sitting beside Taehyung. " Someone you shouldn't know about. " Lisa murmured. " Gosh Lisa, she's a kid. " Jisoo remarked.

" She's my friend. You should call her 'Eonnie' " Jisoo said keeping their promise. " Anneyonghaseyo Eonnie! Jeoneun Ae-Ra. " She bowed a little making Jennie giggle. " Hello Ae-Ra. I'm Jennie. " She said and a golden memory flashed in Jennie's mind.

Jennie and Jisoo passed the daycare as they were returning from their little coffee date. " Gosh look at them, they're so cutee!!!! " Jennie squeaked. " Yes they are! " " Unnie! Promise me something. " " Yes? " " When your child would be born I would be the first one to see her! And she would call me 'Eonnie' not 'Sungmo' (aunt in Korean) " Jisoo chuckled at her demand and said "Sure, you would be the best 'Eonnie' I know it! "

Snapping to reality, everyone was giggling and playing with Ae-Ra, she was cute.

" Wish we all could go back in time. " Jennie whispered a little seeing everyone laughing like the old times.

" I promise that one day we'll be like we used to. " Taehyung whispered back as he heard.
