A second chance at love

Chapter 143: Double your salary

*****************

In the dark wall office of Jeon Corps. Jungkook frowns as he looks at the black screen on his phone. He couldn't remain patient anymore. He unlocks his phone screen and sends a text.

He's been waiting and waiting. Everything that he had been receiving on his phone was either work related or from his family. He didn't answer any of those calls because he was worried he'd miss his wife's call but.... not once did his wife call or send him a text.

Looking at the time, he sighs. It was time for one of his boring meetings. Standing up from his chair, he buttons his suit jacket with his left hand and walks out of his office.

Seeing his boss leaving, Sehun also leaves his desk and runs after his boss. He held countless documents and folders in his hands.

"Boss! Wait for me too! Don't leave me behind! Aiyah! Boss... oss-"

However, he frowned when he saw his boss's bandage right hand. He couldn't help but let his mind wonder.

'Did boss hurt himself during the unauthorized black operation? Or.... did he make the lady boss angry?'

---

Inside the conference room,Jungkook was seated in the main center seat. On both sides of the long glossy black table were Jeon Corps' board of directors. Each one dare not to look at their cold and ruthless boss.

To them, every meeting had always been scary. No one dares to speak unless spoken to. Despite some of them being older than Jungkook.

In their eyes, Jungkook was like a god, but behind that handsome and perfect appearance was no different than King Yama.

Jungkook scanned the room with his dark eyes, then he looks at the wall clock; 10:00am. He needs to finish this meeting quick, before his wife gets here. Not only that, he still doesn't know where to take her to eat.... He's never been in a relationship, so... what is he supposed to do? He took her to dinner, but....

Thinking till there, he decided, he'll let Lisa pick where they should eat for lunch. It'll give him an idea of what she likes to eat.

Ending his thoughts, he looks back at the board of directors, his appearance remained the same. It was as if the man now, was not just thinking about a woman.

"It seems, when I returned from Korea, my words were not clear enough."

His words were like dark clouds had suddenly roamed inside and the temperature dropped. Even if he was speaking calmly, his words sent chills to each board of director's hearts.

"CEO Jeon, as a member of the board of directors and shareholder of Jeon Corps. I recommend you as the CEO of Jeon Corps reconsider the new contract with TB Corps."

Jungkook glanced to the middle aged man who just spoke, "Why do you propose I reconsider?"

The man heaved a sigh in relief inside. He clears his throat and straighten his posture in his chair.

"In the new contract, CEO Ning stated an increase of the shares to TB Corps. He also will be a shareholder at Jeon Corps. If we can keep the contract from voiding, TB Corps' shipping docks will be of great aspect to Jeon corps."

Another member of the board of directors follows after, "I agree with Director Qian. If we keep this new contract, it will be of great benefit to Jeon Corps."

"CEO Jeon, we cannot terminate the contract with TB Corps. It'll cost too much loss for Jeon Corps."

"Yes, I agree, especially now that the year is ending. If we end the contract, Jeon Corps will fall from the chart."

"I disagree. TB Corps has always been under Jeon Corps. This new contract is only so they can climb up in the business industry."

"That's right, this new contract is their way to overthrow Jeon Corps. I disagree in accepting this new contract."

Soon, the discussion amongst the board of directors turned into an argument. Some agrees to terminate the contract with TB Corps, while some wanted to accept it.

As their argument continued, Jungkook remained quiet. He looked at all the faces of the people inside the room. Ever since he took over the position of CEO, he knew who truly supported him and who was scheming against him.

Was he the type of person to let everything go? Of course not, if he wants to make something clear, he will do it.

"Those who are against my decision, is that really how you see?" He paused to look at the men, then he continue, "Or is there a hidden agenda?"

"....."

His cold and deep voice silenced the conference room. Everyone held in their breaths and no one made a sound.

"I am the CEO of Jeon Corps, those who find my decision wrong, you can turn in your resignation letter after this meeting. I have no use for those who oppose my decisions."

Jungkook spoke as if he was having a normal conversation drinking tea. His dark eyes scanned all the men who disagreed with his decision. Until his eyes land on Director Qian.

"I'm sure, CEO Ning will double your salary."

"..."

Director Qian swallowed no saliva as cold sweat formed on his forehead. He lowered his head nervously, avoiding any eye contact with the other members who were on his side. He never liked Jungkook, but for now, he must bare everything patiently.

He forced a smile and chuckled, "If CEO Jeon has decided to terminate the contract, this subordinate will agree."

As the room continued into a different topic, Sehun who was quietly standing behind Jungkook, clenched his fists tightly. His eyes glaring murderously at director Qian.

Sehun had done a thorough investigation on the man and his evil vixen daughter, Qian Sana. He found disgusting things about the father and daughter duo. All they want is wealth and power, nothing else. Also, they'd do anything to climb up the ladder.

The only reason Sehun hasn't done anything is because his Boss is letting the duo enjoy their remaining days before their life crumbles.
