Chapter: TWENTY TWO🔞

His smile quickly fades as he witnesses the blood curdling scene in front of him. Confusion, worry, and rage were all written across his face. It's really not a pleasing sight to see your girl curled up on the lap of another man.

He approaches Taehyung with quick steps, asking, 'What happened to her??'
With concern, Jungkook examines Yunhee's face. However, Taehyung is shocked and utterly disappointed to see Jungkook here.

Jungkook's eyes flick back to Taehyung, not receiving a response. 'Mr. Kim?'
Taehyung takes a deep breath to regain his composure before saying, 'We went to the club, she drank too much and passed out.'
Jungkook hastily removes her from his lap, inciting Taehyung's rage and fury.

Mrs. Brown stood there, hoping Taehyung wouldn't lose his mind. She is fully aware of his feelings for her.

'I'm taking her to her room. Mrs. Brown, can you please bring in a glass of lime water?' He says, looking at Mrs. Brown.
The lady nods & with Yunhee nestled in his lap, Jungkook dashes up the stairs.

Taehyung puts on a poker face as he looks at their disappearing back. Only he and his Lord knows the inner turmoil he is going through.
He knows she belongs to someone else, and feeling this way about her is wrong. However, our emotions are beyond our control; the heart wants what it wants.
......................

Jungkook dashes into her room, places her on the bed, and pats her cheek, calling her name. But she doesn't respond. Gazing at her with concern, he runs his fingers through her hair.

It feels like a decade has passed since he last saw her beautiful face. He was dying to see her, touch her, and tell her how much he loved her. That's why he planned this unexpected trip to London just to surprise her. But he got a surprise instead.

His pulse quickens once more as the scene flashes before his eyes. Yunhee... in another man's arm. His eyes clench to get rid of the stupid vision.
A sudden knock at the door draws his attention.

Mrs. Brown peeks through the door, Jungkook stands up and approaches her, taking the tray from her. Beside the glass, he notices some medicines.
'What are these for?' He inquires, curiously.
'Mr. Kim sent these for Ms. Yunhee, he said these work great for hangover,' she says timidly.
Nodding, Jungkook thanks her.

Just as he was pulling the door shut, she interrupts him once more. 'Umm... Doesn't Ms. Yunhee need to change?' Observing the frown on Jungkook's face, she stutters, 'I-I mean, that dress looks so uncomfortable, how can she sleep in them? Let me help to change.'
Totally irritated by her presence, Jungkook prods his inner cheek with his tongue.

'Mrs. Brown.' He addresses her in a firm tone. 'You really don't need to worry; I'm here for her. I'll make sure to put her in something comfy.' He fakes a smile.

Mrs. Brown's lips form a thin line, then she nods and exits the room.

Taehyung overheard their entire conversation while he was standing outside the room. As their gazes locked, Mrs. Brown felt remorse. She was helpless, she could feel the anguish his heart was going through.
And without saying anything, he headed to his room.

Jungkook changed her clothes with more cozy ones. He freshened up and changed into comfortable clothes as well.
He was very exhausted from the long journey. He covered her with the duvet and then settled down on the plush mattress next to her.

A gleam of silver moonlight peeks through the curtain, but the room is still dark. His fingers follow to find her hand, and he gently holds them and gives them a kiss.

Her gentle snores reverberate throughout the room. His lips curve into a gentle smile. They are sharing a bed for the first time. The drool and soft snoring sounds are making him fall even deeper for her.
