The morning that had started with such promise for Taehyung quickly spiraled into chaos. The news that Namjoon and Seokjin had canceled the deal was like a punch to the gut, leaving him reeling and furious. But the worst part wasn’t just the loss of the deal itself—it was the knowledge that Jungkook had played a role in it.As Taehyung stared out of his office window, his mind raced. The deal with Namjoon had been a crucial part of his plan to launch the Kim family’s new line of luxury cars, a project that was supposed to cement their dominance in the automotive industry. But now, with that deal slipping through his fingers, the future of the project was in jeopardy.
His thoughts were interrupted by the soft knock on his office door. His secretary, Jihun, entered cautiously, carrying the coffee Taehyung had requested.
"Sir, your coffee," Jihun said, his voice trembling slightly.
Taehyung barely acknowledged him, his mind still consumed by the situation. He reached for the cup, taking a sip as he tried to calm himself down. But the coffee did little to ease his frustration. The more he thought about it, the more he realized how deeply Jungkook had managed to outmaneuver him.
"Jihun," Taehyung said suddenly, his voice sharp. "Get me everything we have on the Jeon Corporation’s recent activities. I want to know every move they’ve made in the past month."
Jihun nodded quickly, scurrying out of the office to fulfill the order. Taehyung leaned back in his chair, his mind already working on a new plan. If Jungkook thought he could outsmart him and get away with it, he was sorely mistaken. This was a war, and Taehyung had no intention of losing.
He drummed his fingers on the desk, staring at the documents spread out before him. There had to be something he could use, some way to turn the tables on Jungkook and the Jeon family. The fact that Jungkook had used his uncles, Namjoon and Seokjin, to sabotage the deal only added insult to injury. It was a bold move, one that showed just how ruthless Jungkook could be when he wanted something.
The thought sent a chill down Taehyung’s spine, but it also ignited a fire within him. He wouldn’t let Jungkook win. Not this time.
As the day wore on, Taehyung poured over the information Jihun brought him, looking for any weakness he could exploit. The Jeon family was powerful, but they weren’t invincible. There had to be something—some flaw in their empire that he could use to his advantage.
Hours passed as he combed through the files, making notes and forming a plan. By the time the sun began to set, he had the beginnings of a strategy. He would hit Jungkook where it hurt the most—his business, his family’s reputation, and his pride.
Taehyung knew he needed to act quickly. The rivalry between the Kim and Jeon families had always been fierce, but this latest move by Jungkook had taken it to a new level. If Taehyung didn’t respond in kind, it would be seen as a sign of weakness, something he couldn’t afford.
He reached for his phone, dialing a number he hadn’t used in a long time. The person on the other end was someone Taehyung had worked with in the past, someone who specialized in gathering information and taking down rivals.
"Hyun," Taehyung said when the call connected. "I have a job for you."
There was a pause on the other end, followed by a low chuckle. "Taehyung, it’s been a while. What do you need?"
Taehyung explained the situation briefly, outlining his plan and what he needed from Hyun. The man listened carefully, occasionally interjecting with questions or suggestions. By the time the call ended, Taehyung had the beginnings of a plan in place.
As he hung up the phone, he couldn’t help but smile. Jungkook had made the first move, but Taehyung was determined to make the next one count. This was more than just a business rivalry now—it was personal.
The night stretched on as Taehyung continued to work, refining his plan and preparing for the next steps. He knew he would need to be careful, but he also knew that if he succeeded, the fallout would be devastating for the Jeon family.
When he finally left the office, it was late, the city outside dark and quiet. But Taehyung felt a sense of determination he hadn’t felt in a long time. This was a battle he couldn’t afford to lose, and he was willing to do whatever it took to come out on top.
As he drove home, his mind was already racing with ideas and strategies. He couldn’t wait to see the look on Jungkook’s face when his plan finally came to fruition. The thought of it brought a cold, satisfied smile to his lips.
The rivalry between them had always been intense, but now it was about to reach a whole new level. And Taehyung was ready for it.
The next morning, Taehyung arrived at the office earlier than usual, his mind focused and sharp. He knew that Jungkook wouldn’t expect him to strike back so soon, which gave him the advantage. He spent the morning preparing, gathering the information he needed and finalizing his plans.
By the time noon rolled around, Taehyung was ready. He made a few more calls, setting things in motion, and then waited. He knew that once he made his move, there would be no going back. But that was fine with him. He was ready for whatever came next.
When the time finally came, Taehyung moved quickly and decisively. He reached out to a few key contacts, spreading rumors about the Jeon family’s instability and hinting at problems within their business. He knew that in their world, even the hint of weakness could be enough to cause trouble.
At the same time, he began quietly acquiring shares in one of the Jeon Corporation’s subsidiaries, using a series of shell companies to cover his tracks. It was a risky move, but if it paid off, it would give him a foothold in their business that he could use to his advantage.
As the day wore on, Taehyung kept a close eye on the markets, watching for any signs that his plan was working. He knew it would take time for the effects to be felt, but he was patient. He had waited this long—he could wait a little longer.
By the end of the day, there were already whispers circulating in the business community. People were starting to talk about the Jeon family, about their rumored troubles and the possibility that they were losing their grip on their empire.
Taehyung couldn’t help but feel a sense of satisfaction as he listened to the rumors. This was just the beginning. He had set the wheels in motion, and now all he had to do was wait and watch as the Jeon family’s carefully constructed world began to crumble.
As he left the office that evening, Taehyung felt a sense of calm that he hadn’t felt in days. He knew that there was still a long way to go, but for the first time in a while, he felt like he was back in control.
The rivalry between him and Jungkook was far from over, but Taehyung was more than ready for the next round. He knew that the coming days would be difficult, but he was prepared to face whatever challenges lay ahead.
And he knew that in the end, he would come out on top. Because in this game of power and control, there could only be one winner. And Taehyung was determined to make sure that it was himñ
