DON'T LET ME GO | PJM

Chapter 94

"What do you want me to do?"

"I hope you don't take this the wrong way, Ms. Song. I don't want you to do anything. I just want you to understand that Jimin cares deeply for you. I'm aware that he's with me, but he still holds a special place in his heart for you. I've heard about your predicament. He gave up an important project to prevent Taemin from spreading your photos. He's willing to go to great lengths for you. The question is, what about you? Would you do anything for him?"

Her question struck Y/N deeply, causing her to reflect on her own feelings and actions.

"Ms. Song, if you don't want Jimin, there are plenty of women eager to have him. Including me..."

Y/N narrowed her eyes. "Are you suggesting that I should be with Jimin?"

Lisa blinked. "Am I? If that's how you interpret it, you're mistaken. Jimin is deserving of love and admiration from any woman. How could I ever leave him for you?" She smiled.

Y/N fell silent, gazing out of the window, deep in thought.

"I hope this is the last time Jimin goes to such lengths for you. It's endangering everything he has worked so hard to build, including the company," Lisa continued. "If you're uncertain about how to love a man, then just allow me, Lalisa, to love him."

Y/N's heart tightened, her breath quickening.

"Oh, I almost forgot to mention," Lisa said casually. "I'll be getting engaged soon. You could consider it our official engagement."

Lisa couldn't help but notice Y/N's previously darkened expression grew even gloomier. Y/N's hands tightened together, and Lisa continued to observe her reaction in silence as she drove.

They finally arrived at the Song residence, and Y/N thanked Lisa before getting out of the car. As Lisa prepared to drive away, Jimin called her. "What's going on? How did you know I was taking Y/N home?" Lisa rolled her eyes.

"What did you tell her?" Jimin asked.

"Nothing much. Just mentioned that I'll be getting engaged soon," Lisa replied innocently.

"Lalisa!" Jimin said with exasperation, placing his fingers on his forehead.

"What's the big deal? I didn't lie to her. I'm helping you out here."

"You can't just drop something like that on her..."

"Do you know about ostriches? When they're hurt, they bury their heads in the sand. Y/N is a bit like that," Lisa chuckled. "You can thank me later."

Jimin sighed, feeling torn about whether he should trust Lisa's handling of the situation or not. As for Y/N, he remained unsure about what to do. Perhaps Lisa's approach could help him in some way.

After hanging up, Jimin went to Joon Min's room. He gazed at his son, peacefully asleep in his bed. Joon Min's progress had been remarkable since being with Y/N; he rarely threw tantrums anymore.

Jimin's thoughts couldn't help but drift back to Y/N. He couldn't shake the fear that she might not want to hold his hand, that he wasn't important enough to her, and that's why she kept pushing him away.

This time, he resolved to let her take the initiative. He wanted to see her come to him and reach out for his hand.

Taemin had given Jimin a mere two days to complete their agreement. It was an incredibly short timeframe, but it would have to suffice. Taehyung managed to locate Yoongi, realizing that everyone had a weakness, and in Yoongi's case, it was his little sister.
