Y/n POV

I woke up with the loud ringing of my phone. Annoyed by the disturbance, I grabbed the phone and looked at the screen with half opened eyes. A groan escaped my mouth as I flipped on my back when I saw my mom's name flashing on the screen.

I picked it up with my face scrunched in irritation."What?" I asked and bit my lips."Dare to talk to me like that again and I'll rip off your tongue." She warned in a dangerous tone as I sighed and closed my eyes."I'm sorry." She just hummed and clicked her tongue."Where are you?" She asked as I frowned.

"Why?"

"I'm inside your house and it was locked. Where are you?" My eyes widened as I jumped out of the bed and shifted the phone to my right ear."What?! Why are you there?" I asked while clutching my t-shirt in nervousness, regret float inside me as I despised my decision of giving her the spare key of my flat.

Well, it wasn't in my control though, she would've got it herself anyway but still she shouldn't.

"Do you know what is today and what I told you to do?" My eyebrows creased in confusion as I shook my head."No." She scoffed and replied,"It's weekend and I told you to come to XXX restaurant for the date. Your fiancé will be coming there in about 3 hours."

A sigh escaped my mouth as I finally got her point and rolled my eyes."I won't go. Tell him that I'm not interes-" she cut me off before I could complete."You know that you won't be able to know about your father's whereabouts, right? So reconsider your decision and come back to your apartment from wherever you are."

My face paled as she hung up the call. I stared at the screen in disbelief that this was my own mother threatening me for my own father's whereabouts. Can she be more serious? I tossed the phone on the bed and went inside the bathroom to get freshen up and ready to go to my apartment.

I silently went downstairs and looked around to look at that one face that could lighten up my ruined mood but to my despair he was nowhere to be seen. I went inside the kitchen and then living room but he was nowhere. Sighing in disappointment, I sat inside my car and started the engine.

The car roared to life as I pressed the gas pedal and drove away. As I passed the early busy road of Seoul, my stomach twitched with anticipation about what was going to happen. The thing I was sure of was that I wasn't going to marry anyone.

I know my mom very well, she was getting me married to that guy because of her business. I heard her say that the deal was big and the investors were giving almost 21.98% of their shares in low price that my mom would be buying but their only condition was for me to get married to his son to which my mom agreed. I can't believe this, she was practically selling me.

She doesn't have any emotions regarding this matter and that just shows how much she cares for me. A scoff escaped my mouth as I shook my head and tightened my grip on the steering wheel. I stopped infront of the apartment's gate and stepped out of my car before going towards the lift and pressing the button to my floor.

A beep sound echoed inside as I clutched my purse tightly. Soon the lift opened as I stepped out and took a deep breath before opening the door. I was met with complete silence when I noticed my mom sitting in the living room while slurping her tea.

I closed the door behind me and removed my shoes before going towards her. She didn't even look up at me and signalled me to sit down which I did, unwillingly because I had no will to sit next to her in a situation like this where she was literally blackmailing me on my father's name but guess what? Things like this never leaves choices for you.

"Where were you?" She asked, breaking the ice as I straightened up and looked directly at her."At Jungkook's house." I said coldly but instantly regretted when she gave me a damn sharp look on his mention."Why? Didn't I say to stay away from him?" She frowned and placed her cup on the table before facing me.

"I have something important to look for and he's just helping me." I said as she scoffed and looked away."He's helping you? Unbelievable. Anyways, let's get to the important point." She said while putting her one leg on the other and clasped her hand together before putting it on her knee.

I looked at her with a pained expression."Mom, I said I also have something important going on. Aren't you curious?" I asked as she shook her head in denial."No, you always know what to do and what not. And moreover, your business is not my business so I shouldn't care about this, right?" She said as a dry chuckle escaped my mouth before I looked away and controlled my tears which were threatening to fall any moment.

I looked down and nodded before looking back at her."Right. I'll deal with my problems by myself. But according to your statement, you shouldn't care about my personal life too."

"If getting involved in your personal life is beneficial for my professional life, then I'll care and you'll have to listen to me." She said and unfolded her legs before giving me an evil look."You're way too selfish to be called a mother. I wish I was better left abandoned than being raisen up by you. You're disgusting." I said and got up as she looked at me shocked."How da-"

"No, even if I feel disgusting being raisen up by you but still you've raised me, your blood is running in my veins. So, bear it because from now on I won't treat you like a mom if you don't treat me like your daughter!" I said and turned around to leave before glancing at her once again.

"And yeah, I'll find my dad myself. I don't fucking need you for that. Go find another way to earn more money because it won't work this way and only approach me when you realise you've a daughter to take care of, otherwise stay in your damn mansion and leave me on my own!" I said and stomped out of there as fresh, warm tears rolled down my cheek.

Slamming the apartment's door loudly, I leaned against it while pressing the back of my palm against my mouth to prevent the sobbing sound. My body shook as I squinted my eyes and cried silently while digging my teeth in my hand.

I don't know where this argument would lead to, if I'll ever be able to meet her again or not because as far as I know, she barely cared about me but the goddamn deal. She won't be able to become the biggest shareholder in Korea if she loses this deal because so far this was the first time any businessmen or businesswomen have bought this much amount of shares.

After sometime, I calmed down and straightened my position before wiping my now swollen face and moving towards the lift when my phone rang catching my attention. I took out my phone from my purse and looked at the screen. Jeon.

I cleared my throat before answering the call and placing the phone near my ear."Yes?" I asked while maintaining my voice so he won't understand that I was crying."Where are you?! I searched the whole house but you're nowhere. Are you out somewhere?" He asked worriedly while breathing heavily which means he was running here and there looking for me.

I looked down in guilt for not informing him and troubling him."I'm sorry. I just came back to my house." I said in a low voice while hearing his breathing against the phone."Why? Did you leave something behind? You could've just told me, I would've gone with you. Why did you took the risk to go alone?! Are you actually trying to become a superwoman for roaming around this freely in this situation?!" He yelled over the phone as I listened silently.

"Why are you yelling? I just came to meet my mom, she called me this morning. I looked for you in morning but you were not there so I just left." I said as he sighed and hummed."Sorry but you could've messaged me atleast." He said in a low voice as I pulled my lips in a thin line.

"Yeah, I'm sorry for that. I had a lot in my mind and it just didn't cross my mind at that time." He inhaled sharply and said,"Wait for me there, I'll come and pick you up. We have somewhere to go." I frowned at his statement in confusion.

"Where?" I asked and proceeded my way towards the lift before pressing the button."You will know. Just wait for me and don't go anywhere." He said as I licked my lips."Umm..Okay." I said as he hung up the call.

I wondered where he was going to take me. Could it be morning date? No, he won't do that, not when he literally doesn't allow me to step out of the house. But then, where will we be going?

I wandered my curious mind everywhere but couldn't think of anything so I left it on him. I'll get to know that when we reach so there is no need to think this much. I stepped out of the lift before standing in front of the main gate while waiting for him.
