THE HEIRS | JK FF✔️

Prologue

( at present time)

I have a really worse headache today, but I can't be whining about it. This meeting is crucial to saving the business. If it doesn't go well, we'll go down. Considering taehyung was out of country for the deal, I have no choice but to join the meeting.

For the first time in our 10 years of marriage, I'm here in the office to attend a meeting on behalf of taehyung. He has managed the business so well. He has given me all the freedom he could. He never dragged me in business related work. And never done anything without my approval. Even if I was home all the time, my approval needed to everything he does. Our fathers forced us to marry but he never give me hard time in our ten years of marriage but we are still not what a couple should be. It was the marriage without love. We are just obstacles in each other's lives, still bearing each other around. He has always treated me like a friend, which I'm really glad about.

With that, I hurriedly made my way towards his office. As I entered, everyone greeted me. Some people were in awe that I had never attended any meetings before, some people didn't recognize as they have only heard about me. Just then, Tae's assistant came to greet me.

"madam, this way, let me escort you."

"it's okay, Yuna. Just tell me. When is taehyung going to arrive? Can he make it back on time, or should I just attend it all on my own?"

"sir will be here by 10, but I'm afraid by then the meeting will have ended", Yuna informed me.

"that's Okey. I guess I have no choice but to attend this meeting on his behalf."

Yuna handed me some needed documents on the way, and I entered the meeting room. Everyone stood up, and then I greeted them as we settled down.

The other party wasn't on time as Mr. Cha said they would be arriving in a few minutes. He advised me to review the documents as it was big deal for us and I had never attended meetings before, but I refused, thinking Taehyung must have done all paperwork and have done all study details about this meeting, so it would be fine. I took a look at the proposal. It was pretty good ; I think it will work out.

Hanjin group, as an aircraft manufacturer, could indeed enter into a contract with the airlines to supply them with new aircraft or lease existing ones from its fleet. This agreement could be a lifetime for us, offering a glimmer of hope in these turbulent times. The potential partnership may include provisions for the customization of aircraft configurations to meet the airlines'specific requirements, ensuring that each plane is tailored to their needs. Additionally, maintenance and support services would be integral to the agreement, guaranteeing the airworthiness and reliability of the fleet throughout its operational lifespan. With careful negotiation and strategic planning, this deal could be the breakthrough we desperately need to turn our fortunes around.

As Mr. Cha said, this group has been doing business with us for a long time, back when my dad used to handle it all. Now that I've taken on the chairperson position, everything depends on me how I make the most out of it. Sometimes I ponder deeply on this, reflecting on how Taehyung manages everything on his own. He not only handles the chairman position at university but also takes care of all my responsibilities in the office while I stay home. Just my signature and approvals are all I have to give, and after that, he's the one who does all the office work. Even in this forced marriage, he has given his all, showcasing his responsibility.

But as I glanced around the room, I couldn't shake off the sinking feeling in my chest. Our business was hanging by a thread, the fortune my father had gathered I seem to losing it, I guess this all meant to turn out like this in the end.
Taehyung was fighting tooth and nail to keep it from crumbling into dust. But we were running out of luck, I had seen this coming long ago. His sleepless nights and weary eyes spoke volumes of the battles he waged behind the scenes, away from the prying eyes of the world.
