25. Gifts from Tae Sumi

"Are you homesick?" I asked the man in front of me who was savouring Italian food, who kinda looked like he hadn't eaten in days.

"Kinda, I liked it there more," he said, chewing his food.

"Then why did you come back here? Business? " I asked taking a bite of my spaghetti, I love them. I know it's none of my business, but I was simply curious about it. I hope I didn't cross my limit because he stopped eating and looked at me with a serious face.

"I can't run away from the past I had to face the reality. And yeah, also business," he said softly.. I just nodded.

"Hoseok doesn't seem to remember you," I said with a little smirk

"Well his loss if he cannot remember a face like mine." Jungkook replied playfully.

"Well, I do remember your face from before, Jeon boy," I smirk and he groaned...... "Hoodie cap, pimple big round glass. You sure were cute." He groans loudly, burying his face in his palms. "Stop there no more teasing." he said making me grin at him.

"If Hoseok is gonna remember me, and troubled me, will you come again to save me y/n?" Even though his words were playful, why do I feel like there is a deep meaning behind them?

"Nah, I'm lazy I'll grab some popcorn and enjoy the show. Also, I'm pretty sure you are capable of dealing with people like him since you're in this position." I said calmly he just gave a smile.

"How are things here so far? Having trouble adjusting? " I asked

"Not as bad as I thought. Let's see what the future holds." Jungkook said he was about to say something else, but his phone went off. Probably, he must have things to handle. That reminds me I also have tons of work waiting for me. My phone vibrant It's an email from Rowan. I look at Jungkook, who has excused himself to talk, so I open the email.

It's about Jungkook. It says in middle school, he disappeared suddenly, and no one has seen him since. He moved to Italy and started to work under an old man in a shoe store. But surprisingly that man used to be a billionaire. He took him under his wing and taught him investment and business.

After a year, Jungkook somehow started an investment company by selling shares that he brought with his hard work. It took him two years to make the company grow bigger and more profitable.

Soon, his company had reached a milestone that was very surprising because he was so young and a mere shoe store worker. Anyway, he named his company "Noej". He has made investments in international companies or projects that mainly brought him more money and fame. He made his first investment in South Korea almost four years ago in the Tally group. He has kept a low profile. He is now quite well known socially but still prefers a low profile. Love interest 'none'.

You have had a hard way to come up this far Jeon boy. Your hard work has paid off, just don't lose your morals like other rich successful men. People change when they have money and power. What's hard is to keep your morale. It's a fight against yourself and the world. You have come so far by yourself, just fight against the odds and keep your morals Jeon boy

I was so busy in my thoughts that I barely noticed he had come and taken his seat.

"Looks like they're trying hard to make a scandal for us." Jungkook's eye pointed at the reporter who was trying very hard to pretend like a normal customer. I've noticed him following me for days. It's a daily thing now reporters chasing me around. But my security team will handle that so I let him be.

"One scandal of me will make him loaded since they never find me in any scandal," I said calmly

"Y/n?"
