The audacity of the woman to speak disrespectfully shook you so that you couldn't believe your ears. Jungkook couldn't believe it too, Hyein being one of the most influential businesswomen and having a popular reputation was just a facade of her true self.

"Jeon, your young maid's got some attitude I must sa-" "Dare to call her a maid again, and I'll make sure you regret it." Jungkook spoke fast and frustrated in every word, his voice low and dangerous, which almost scared you, too, since his always warm eyes were now icy in anger.

Hyein was taken aback by the intensity of her client's words, which made her frown. you were just as shocked as the woman was, but then you felt touched by his words since it meant that he wouldn't tolerate any disrespect towards you. by now, Jungkook had stood up from his chair, his jaw clenched as the seconds passed, trying his best to control his growing anger.

Hyein glances over at him, then you, she notices from the corners of her eyes that you're pregnant and feel guilty. her team did their research on the CEO of Jeon Industries, his background, and his family, but none was found. they assumed he was a private man, but she couldn't believe that you're related to the man she sat in front of.

her ego does not give her a chance to apologize, so instead, she hums and gets on her feet, guilt in her eyes that she may have called her client's pregnant wife a maid. "I'll be taking my leave now." "Feel free," Jungkook replies a bit too quickly, his tone cool and dismissive, making it clear that he couldn't care less about her departure.

Min collects her documents and papers with a bow before she exits. you look down at the ground and hug yourself with your sweater as Jungkook heaves a loud sigh. "I'm- I'm sorry for what she said. I can't believe how she spoke to you." he murmurs as he walks to you, his palms reaching out to your arms as he looks at you and feels bad that you had to hear the woman's demeaning words.

however, that's not what bothers you anymore. What's taken a space of your mind is how protective Jungkook sounded when he took a stand for you. He didn't consider the implications of his contract or how his tone might impact future clients. At that moment, none of it mattered.

His focus was entirely on making sure that the person in front of him understood just how unwelcome they were. The coldness in his voice and the sharpness of his words were deliberate, designed to cut through any pretence and leave no room for misunderstanding. you smiled and nodded. he examines you for a while and then walks back to the table to get his papers inside the files.

you feel a fluttery movement again inside your belly and smile. It's the 4th time of the day you felt something, and it's like a reminder that you're so close to meeting your little one. your hands caress your belly as you look down at it curiously, Jungkook turns to walk upstairs and glances at you, admiring your bump and it recalls him how someday he's got to do some explaining if you hadn't already noticed his unusual behavior regarding the situation.

"I'm gonna head to bed. Do you need something savoury to have?" "oh no, I'm good." You're so stuffed that the idea of food makes you nauseous. "I'll get your meds. You should head to bed too." he leaves after you nod and follow him. you can tell that he's tired and stressed out. his worn-out features prove it, and you just wanna help him.

Jungkook leans against his shower as the water runs down his back. he'd been worrying about bits of everything, you, the unborn baby, his business, and his hyungs. it seems to suffocate him. He hardly ever has a night of restful sleep, and sometimes he wishes he could run away from everything and everyone, but then his mind shows him a picture of you.

and somehow, a soft smile grows on his face. he knows he likes you a lot. but he doesn't know if he likes you enough to carry a family. "Mama's craving cheesecake so much anyway, Mama loves the beach. she also loves the mountains but she's not very adventurous and is afraid of heights and.. even the water, but she does fine. she can manage pretty well."
