Chapter 39 - Build the largest general merchandise department store in A City.

After Jungkook went upstairs, Jeon Taeyoung remained sitting in the drawing room by himself.

Jungkook spoke correctly. What use was there in apologetic words; she had passed away a long time ago... All these years, he had always harbored guilt, so he wanted to make it up to Jungkook when he returned. Jungkook, however, didn't appreciate the kindness at all.

Jungkook hated him, and yet, he didn't loathe the him at that time.

When Jungkook's mother had just become acquainted with him, he had merely been a young carpenter. Under the management of his brethren, he helped people install doors and windows for a living. At that time, although his livelihood wasn't prosperous, he was only in his twenties, and with Jungkook's mother by his side accompanying him, he didn't feel that his days had much hardship.

Jungkook's mother had always loved to dress up. She didn't have other interests, but she had not even the slightest resistance to beautiful clothes. There were no large-scale general merchandise department stores at that time. It was already pretty good that there were several stores specialized in selling clothing. He frequently kept her company as she strolled around. The clothes he could afford to buy, he would buy them without hesitation for her.

After he and his brethren's group scattered and the equipment was divided amongst them, he established his own small private company with him as the chief labor contractor. Because life was better than the years before, he was able to take Jungkook's mother to stroll through malls of more economically developed cities. To this day, he still remembered her excited appearance when she first entered a department store.

Back then, he had pledged to her that in the future, he would build the largest general merchandise department store in A City so she could stroll through it every day without needing to travel so far.

An opportunity came later. Their company received a government project. Because the government funds were insufficient, land was given to him as compensation for the project.

The first thing he thought of was building a general merchandise department store there, but to develop a general merchandise department store well, the development of a shopping mall nearby was also extremely important. He knew the surrounding land all belonged to the Lin Family, so he thought of collaborating with them in building this.

At first, the patriarch of the Lin Family was not very supportive of this project of his, and his willingness to collaborate was not very high. His daughter Lin Minyoung, however, was actually very supportive--supportive of Jeon Taeyoung.

He appeared young, promising, and handsome. It really was very difficult for a girl at her age to not have her heart moved.

Jeon Taeyoung naturally also realized Lin Minyoung's thoughts towards him. If he could get through to Lin Minyoung, then he would definitely be able to persuade the Lin Family. Furthermore, at that time, not only did Lin Minyoung say to him that she wanted a plaza built in the surroundings, she even said the plaza would be named after his department store.

Jeon Taeyoung was shaken.

His original intention in building the general merchandise department store was for Jungkook's mother, but now this had become more of a business opportunity to Jeon Taeyoung. He knew that building only the store itself was very limiting. If he invested in this business, then he could harvest a greater return in the future.

He was undecided for a very long time, but in the end he still brought up separation with Jungkook's mother. At that time, she didn't cry or wail. Her eyes were simply full of such deep despair that he might not be able to forget in this lifetime.

She very quickly disappeared from his world. He had married Jeon Minyoung. Eight years later, Jungkook was brought right to him.

Thinking of this, a burst of acute pain split through Jeon Taeyoung's head again. At that time, he had truly been completely shocked. If he had known that she had already been pregnant with their child, he definitely wouldn't have broken up with her.
