ETERNAL EMBRACE | JEONGCHEOL [✓]

18.

Four months had passed since Jeonghan and Seungcheol's contract marriage, and the new chapter in their lives had unfolded with its own set of challenges and rewards.

Jeonghan, now the CEO of Yoon Solutions, was deeply immersed in his responsibilities, while Seungcheol continued to navigate the world of modeling, occasionally joining Jeonghan for various events.

Their routine had become a dance of balancing their professional commitments with their personal lives.

Today, Jeonghan was hard at work in his office, a fortress of paperwork and responsibility.

He was diligently working through a stack of files when Joshua entered the room with a slightly nervous expression.

"Mr. Yoon,"

Joshua began, hesitating for a moment,

"I was wondering if I could take a half day off today. Seokmin's planned something special for us, and I'd really like to go."

Jeonghan looked up from his desk with a playful glint in his eye.

"Oh? Is Seokmin trying to steal you away from me? I thought you were my right-hand man, not a man with a wandering heart."

Joshua's cheeks flushed slightly, and he chuckled.

"No, no, it's not like that. He's just been planning this for a while. It's a chance for me to unwind, and I promise I'll be back to work bright and early tomorrow."

Jeonghan feigned a dramatic sigh.

"Well, if you insist on abandoning me for Seokmin, I suppose I can't stop you. But if you come back with a new appreciation for the art of paper-pushing, don't blame me."

Joshua grinned, relieved.

"Thanks, Mr. Yoon. I promise I'll make it up to you."

With that settled, Joshua left the office, excitement evident in his step.

Meanwhile, Seungcheol was at home, catching up on some much-needed relaxation.

As he scrolled through his phone, a notification popped up that sent a chill down his spine. It was from an anti-fan, a message that had been threatening him for weeks.

Today's message was even more sinister, explicitly threatening Jeonghan's safety.

Panic gripped Seungcheol as he read the message. He knew that threats like these were not uncommon in their industry, but the mention of Jeonghan brought a new level of fear.

His immediate concern was Jeonghan's safety, especially since his phone seemed to be dead.

After multiple attempts to reach him with no success, Seungcheol decided to take matters into his own hands and check on Jeonghan.
