"Then watch me take all the shares out of your name and donate it to some other companies if you proceed to walk further away!"

He stops in mid-step and controls his wrath before proceeding towards the front door. His ears perked up at his father's self-centred remarks. He was aware that his father had never shown him any affection at all, but at this moment he was

convinced that his father intended to manipulate him like a piece of machinery.

Jungkook turns to face his father, who is still composed as usual. After giving his son his authorization and asking him to follow what he wanted, he would never even bother to look at him.

He grinned before walking over to the dining room table and banging his palms on it yet again, making the sound reverberate down the empty house's hallway. "How could you possibly do this?" He merged, staring directly into his father's menacing

eyes, which didn't at all frighten him. His father's continued silence provoked him even more.

"I ASKED YOU SOMETHING, HOW CAN YOU DECIDE THIS. YOU GAVE ME THE HIGHER POSITION AND MADE ME THE COMPANY'S OWNER WHEN WE WERE GOING BANKRUPT. EVERYTHING was done by me. EVERY SINGLE THING I DID. THERE WAS

JUST ME. You choose to relieve yourself of the burden and put this on me. AND WHEN IT IS NOW IN THIS POSITION, WHICH I GOT WITH YEARS OF SWEET AND HARD WORK, YOU DECIDE TO GIVE IT TO SOMEONE ELSE BECAUSE I DIDN'T WANT TO DO AS YOU WISH. REALLY??" He shouts his final words, letting out a sigh of frustration after voicing his opinions.

His mother sighed, realising she had no chance of participating in this discussion. Of course, the family's head, Jungkook's father, forbade her from doing so. " I merely requested that you wed the girl I had selected. She's a well-behaved young lady; I already know his father. Along with being partners, we are friends. They are currently experiencing hardships with their business and I want to help them by developing a partnership with him. However, it would be preferable if you wed his daughter " his father remarked peacefully.

" Do as I said; it is for your own good. How long do you plan to remain single and work? Even if they are experiencing some issues, their farm is still one of the most prominent in the city, so working with them is actually more beneficial for our business. That's all there is. Conversation ends," he declares.

He observes Jungkook before rising from his seated position. " I'm not getting married, and that's definite. I'm sure you can't choose to select who owns the business. Jungkook uttered before standing and turning to face him. Legally, I'm the owner " he says.

" I'm not getting married, and it's final. " He utter, Before turning around to go for the second time, " Don't forget that I reserve the right to revoke your ownership of this business at any time. " his father stated, causing him to groan. " Do whatever you want " he could not agree with his father in any way. " Well, then wake up tomorrow with this news, or if you change your mind, you will get the company all to yourself following the day you marry. "

Before he exited his parents' home and into his car, which had already been waiting for him by the valet, he heard his father make a hushed remark before stepping on the throttle and leaving the mansion behind.

___________________________________

She had no idea that something like this might happen to her. She came close to achieving her dream despite years of isolation, misery, and fragility, but her own blood, who never stopped to think before giving her an order, shattered the bubble and string of last hope.

If he would enable her to beg, she would beg him to stop. However, it won't since she is aware of the unwelcome enmity he harbours towards her and the fact that she knows what gave rise to it.

When she heard her father's announcement that she should get married, the next day, she sat for a long time on the bed, unable to talk her worries away the entire night. She sought to see if there was any way to escape this trap via thinking, but she was unable. She grew to believe that even if she tried to leave her home, her father, and her family behind, she would never be able to do so. If she did, her father and brother would still be able to find her even hundreds of metres under the water. It is therefore largely pointless to become fixated over her meaningless thoughts.

" Where are you heading in the early morning? " She halts upon hearing her step mother. "University." She calmly retorted. "Oh, university! Whatever. Get back early. Your father had made me aware of the meeting with your soon-to-be in-laws. " As Y/N turned around to leave the house in despair, she was disappointed, not in her mother, though; rather, in her father. However, she is unable to do anything other than follow their instructions until she graduates.

After arriving at college, she parks her belongings in her locker, grabs what she needs, and makes her way to her first class. "Hey Y/N..." She twitches her lips into a small smile as he pauses before turning to face the caller. She mumbles to her best friend, "Nini." Later, after giving her a side hug, Nini put her arm around Y/N's shoulder and prodded her to continue to their class.

" How was your weekend Y/N? " She inquired, before starting to walk ahead. " It was enjoyable, yet dull because you weren't there. We would have studied together and enjoyed movies if you were here', she says, staring down at her feet. " Oh Y/N I apologise for having to postpone the meeting. Mom contacted me almost immediately and asked me to attend the family dinner. Even though it was tedious, I still need to accomplish it " she said, grinning at her friend.

As Y/N continued to glance down, she sighed since she knew she would have to take her to the room by herself. One of the individuals she could count on to make her happy and give her more reason to live her life was Nini. " You look tense" Finally, Nini asked. " Yes, nini, it is important. I need to talk to you, she said, asking Nini to meet her at the cafeteria during lunch. Nini nodded before leaving for her own class. Yes, they did not attend the same school.

She turns back but halts after slamming into something sturdy, despite knowing it wasn't a wall but rather a person. he backes away before stooping to apologise to whoever it was, without turning to face them.

" Do you find it common to run into people on the streets,a lot, like you do ? "
