Chapter 20

Tae felt like someone was strangling him.

He felt suffocated as the world began to spin around him.

How could Jungkook be Mr. Z?!

Mr. Z sent him eight hundred thousand dollars and wanted to invest in Kim Industries. How was it possible that Jungkook would do that?

However, if he was not Mr. Z, then what was he doing there?

His mind spun as he looked at the man before him. His wheelchair, dark shirt, and unusually fair skin told him that the man in front of him was no other than Jeon Jungkook.

Tae let out a cold breath and subconsciously took a few steps back, but the door to the private room was closed.

"Leaving before saying hello?"

Seeing him so nervous made Jungkook press his lips into a thin line.

"What are you doing in a place like this?"

Tae raised her hand to push a strand of hair behind his ear. He forced himself to stay calm as he said, "I... I'm here to have dinner with some friends."

"This is a bar."

"Oh..."

Tae glanced around the private room. It was a large room that was lavishly decorated, but he felt like he was in hell and could not settle down.

"I... I think I came to the wrong place. I'll go look for them now."

"Kim Taehyung," Jungkook hissed. His voice was as cold as ice. "Did you not take what I said this morning seriously?"

"I heard you," Tae said, "but I have no reason to live my life by your words."

He remembered what happened last time like it was yesterday.

He had not drunk that night, but he had insisted that he had dressed like a prostitute so that he might go out drinking with other men.

Taehyung's reply made Jungkook raise his thick brows.

He knew he(Tae) was different from other people. He had his own opinions, and he did not back down in the face of power. Most importantly, no matter how sternly he warned him, he would never take his threats seriously.

Which also meant that he did not take him seriously at all.

Jungkook picked up a glass of wine and took a sip.

Taehyung took a deep breath and asked, "What are you doing here? Didn't you say you were going to the old mansion for dinner?"

He wanted to ask what he was doing in the room that Mr. Z had booked.
He wanted to ask if he was Mr. Z, but he did not dare be so straightforward.

This was because he had no idea what his answer would be.

If he was Mr. Z, how would they proceed to discuss business matters?

If he was not, how would he deal with the blatant lie he had told him that morning?

"Come and drink with me," Jungkook ordered as he glared at him with bloodshot eyes.

Tae raised her brows.

What was he trying to do?

"I told you I don't drink," he replied. He could not read his eyes nor could he read his heart. All he wanted to do was leave that place. "Enjoy yourself. I'm leaving!"
