Silence was noticeable in the room. everyone looked at Taehyung, speechless or not. Jimin was clearly in shock. Jin, who had arrived later, had simply listened to my superior while keeping his arms crossed, occasionally glancing at Insoon who was busy climbing onto the benches a little further away, without hearing our conversation. Namjoon regularly ran a hand through his hair, and Yoongi didn't seem surprised. For my part, I had in the meantime slipped a hand on Taehyung's thigh, and the latter was now squeezing my fingers under the table.

It was very heavy.

Jimin finally looked away from my boss , who was still jaw clenched after his almost ten minute monologue. He had said everything, sometimes hesitating on certain things, and I had been there to reassure him with a light caress on the back of his hand when he did not dare to go any further in the explanation. It had obviously worked since he ended up saying everything, confessing everything.

The others now knew about Kang-Dae and Jin, who already knew some part, had several times been surprised to hear Taehyung admit such things, admit that he was not the greatest. Not yet.

"..I wasn't expecting that." Jimin began, panting, as if he was the one who had just spoken. -Me neither." Namjoon blurted.

Yoongi narrowed his eyes at me, and I knew he was going to say something to me before everyone left.

"Teenagers? So he's some kind of pedophile but for teenagers...?" Jimin asked, scared.
-It's called being ephebophile." Yoongi corrected him.

I wasn't surprised in the least. It was certain that Yoongi knew this term, the opposite would have surprised me.

Taehyung tensed. I squeezed his hand tighter in mine.

"That's it." He said, his deep voice resonating in the room. -Jinie? Can I have something to drink?" Insoon suddenly shouted from afar.

Jin immediately got up and left the table to join the little girl further away. Nobody took offense.

"Boss, we understand that it wasn't your fault..."

Taehyung looked up at Namjoon.

"But I'm going to have to refuse to work here any longer if the network holds up thanks to this. If this bastard is our bank. Sorry, but I can't." he whispered.

Taehyung was about to speak but I beat him to it.

"That's why I'm going to infiltrate his network. Kang-Dae's. -Yeah?!" Jimin and Jin, who had returned after serving Insoon a drink, shouted in unison.

Yoongi frowned.

"It turns out... Kang-Dae has an attraction to me." I stuttered, embarrassed to say such a thing.

Taehyung clenched his jaw, silent.

"Taehyung made sure to devalue me in Kang
-Dae's eyes in order to buy time by pretending that he still had to educate me like a good employee. That's why I've been training with you all this time Jimin. Taehyung had the idea of sending me to Kang-Dae, but he changed his mind. Except that it's the best way to destroy him, so I made the decision to go."

Everyone was shocked, but I realized it wasn't because of what I had just said.

It was for the "Taehyung" I had just used.

Yes, I had just called my boss by his first name in front of him and the others , which is why I turned red realizing that I had indirectly shown the members that Taehyung and I were close enough for me to call him by his name.

Even Jimin was surprised, even though he knew it. Yoongi kept a neutral but increasingly closed air. As for Namjoon, he actually looked shocked. Jin stared at the table, looking thoughtful or empty. I didn't really know.
