The people swallowed hard, a few tugging at the collar of their tops. It was suffocating in here, yet the air was colder than the North. What was scary about this scene was not the smack that rang throughout the room, but the strikingly tall, lean, and charismatic man blocking it.
Nothing was more terrifying than seeing his dangerous placid expression. It was hard to read his emotions when his eyes were so lifeless. Publicly displaying anger was one thing, but acting so calm was another. Looking at the man’s ashen face while he held Choi Soobin’s hand was like looking at Yama himself. The people could practically see the wispy ghosts swirling around the man as a heavy air of cruel death hanged around him.
"Park Jimin..." Song Areum breathed out in shock. He had pulled her back from the blow, one arm tightly wrapped around her waist, pressing her lithe body into his perfectly tailored dress. The other had blocked the smack and was now holding Choi Soobin’s wrist, bending it in an unruly matter.
His lethal and deadly stare was centered on the imbecile in front of him. "I should break your wrist right now." Park Jimin muttered, enough for Choi Soobin to hear the threat, but quiet enough where the crowd did not.
Choi Soobin’s face was morphed into shock. He had been so busy with trying to uplift Choi Corporation, he did not have enough time to pay attention to the news about Park Jimin and Song Areum’s relationship. He thought the incident at the banquet last time was just a random gesture of kindness towards a pitiful and pathetic woman. Why was the scene repeating itself again?
"Park Jimin, you’re hurting me." Choi Soobin scowled, yanking his hand back but Park Jimin twisted it further, a dark look on his face.
Choi Soobin bit hard on his tongue to prevent a painful cry from escaping. The pain was so intense, he was beginning to break out in a cold sweat. He did not want to embarrass himself in front of Kim Chungha and Song Areum. That would hurt his pride more than it would harm his body.
"If blacklisting you was not enough, I could do much more than that." Park Jimin released Choi Soobin, shoving him back.
He knew if he wanted to hurt the human waste in front of him, the best way to do so was attacking the company and then capturing him later on.
This was a celebration banquet with hundreds of pairs of eyes trained on them, it would be too messy and problematic to deal with him in public.
"I’m surprised you’re attending tonight’s banquet Mr. Choi, especially when you have a failing company to worry about." Park Jimin nonchalantly added on.
Everyone was suddenly reminded of the enormous stock drop of Choi Corporation. Major partnerships pulled out, the company’s value was decreasing, and the projects they had in mind were halted. Shouldn’t the CEO be slaving his life away at the company, instead of mingling at a banquet with his lover?
Choi Soobin’s right eye twitched. He ground his teeth, his hands itching to punch something. Damn you, Park Jimin! It wasn’t enough that you had to plummet my company, but you also had to humiliate me in public like this?!
Choi Soobin stopped his delusion of seeing Park Jimin as a friend. It was clear the latter drew a line a long time ago, but Choi Soobin had just seen it.
