Alright, Taehyung, No need to panic; you got this.
Approaching the entrance, Taehyung noticed a low-key staff entrance nearby. He squared his shoulders, walking up to the security guard and speaking with unwavering confidence.
"Hey, I'm part of the event crew - helping out with setup and stuff," Taehyung stated firmly.
The guard checked him, "ID?"
Taehyung met his gaze, "Absolutely." He confidently pulled out a sleek, black access card from his pocket.
The guard inspected it, nodding after a moment, "Alright, make it quick. We've got a lot going on."
Taehyung thanked him and strolled in, keeping his cool until he was safely inside. He snuck into the party to meet Jimin but without even realizing it, his eyes started searching for Jungkook, It had been two weeks since he met him. His eyes landed on Jiwon heading towards the exit. She had her manager in tow and stopped upon seeing Taehyung.
"You seem familiar, have we met before?"
Taehyung responded with a friendly smile, "I'm Kim Taehyung, Jennie's brother."
He noticed the sudden shock and curiosity in her eyes.
"Really? Jennie's brother? Aah, that's why you seemed familiar. How are you doing? About Jennie, it must have been tough for you...."
"Everything's okay.... Yeah, it's been hard, but pushing through."
"Yeah, if you ever need anything, just reach out. I'm here for you."
"Sure, thank you so much."
She gave Taehyung a big comforting smile.
"Find out who invited him to the party," she asked her manager as they walked towards the exit.
Out of the blue, someone grabbed his hand, pulling him along until they stopped at a spot where no one was around. Under the dim light, he saw the familiar face - Jimin.
"Why didn't you come with the CEO? I thought you were staying with him," Jimin asked in a concerned tone.
"Do you think I would stay with him after I saw what you gave me? Now, tell me what you want to say. Who are you? How do you know Jennie? Where did you get those pictures from?"
"I'm a trainee at Golden Voice. I've met Jennie a few times; we had a lot in common-coming from a poor family, having a little sibling to look after, a strong passion for music... and we gradually became friends. She used to tell me a lot about her cute little brother, and I talked about my sister. I know about her relationship with the CEO"
He paused for a moment. "Those pictures... I took them." His words trembled as he spoke. "I was forced to take them.""Forced? By whom?"
"Do you know Choi Sangwoo? He's the chairman's son from Choi Construction Group. He used to be a trainee at my company...... he bullied everyone. No one dared to stand up to him. Once, when I couldn't take it anymore, I complained. Well, it turned into a big mess in the company. Everyone was talking about it, and things got really chaotic. Finally it got to the CEO, and he took action, kicking him out....... It was his revenge plan; he made me drug Jungkook during the party, took those pictures. He threatened to harm my little sister.....I had no choice, she's all I've got. He's a psycho and rich, nobody can touch him. " His eyes grew moist, and his voice shaking.
"That night..... before she went to the restaurant we met and I confessed. Do you know what she told me?"
"I know Jimin. I understand him better than anyone. I know that he would never cheat on me. However, this needs to come to an end. He invited me to dinner... I've decided to meet him and end our relationship. It's for the best for both of us."
"I saw fear in her eyes, as if she sensed something was about to happen. Suddenly, she received a call, looking so panicked that she didn't even wait for the driver; she took the car and left without a single word. The next day, all I heard was about the accident. But I'm convinced, absolutely convinced, that it wasn't just an accident. When I saw you in the company that day, I felt the need to share all of this with you."
Taehyung stood still, frozen and unsure of how to respond.
"You should go back to the CEO; it's your safe place," Jimin said, before he walked into the darkness and disappeared
A call... who was that? Why did Jennie panic after that call? I need to find out who it was.
Taehyung slowly made his way to the other side of the venue, going over every detail Jimin had shared. But his eyes got stuck on a corner bench. Jungkook was sitting there all alone, an empty glass in his hand as he stared into the distance.
You should go back to the CEO; it's your safe place.....Jimin's words echoed in his head. He slowly walked towards Jungkook.
"Hey, how's your leg? Up for a little walk?"
