A MAN TO HONOR

chapter forty one

A week later

Taehyung

I sit in my office in the mansion, I feel my feet lightly shaking under the desk

Tomorrow is my wedding

I feel like I'm about to lose my mind but I have to play it cool

That's what Jungkook told me to do

To play it cool and trust him

But it's been a week since I told him and his wife about that whole situation and I have no idea what their plans are, but it's taking too long now

I'm not supposed to panic but I'm panicking

It's a matter of time and every single hour counts

The wedding is tomorrow and I feel like I'm no longer in control

And it's getting hard to put that mask on and play it cool with my family

A discreet knock at the door caught my attention

And the bodyguards watching me are the one to answer

Since the wedding is getting closer and closer, my family is more strict about the security and I can't even breath without someone scanning the air first

I'm mentally exhausted, I just want to be with Kailah

It's not even about my inheritance or anything

I just want to get out of here and be with her

Even though she said that she doesn't love me

Am I delusional enough to keep hoping that it was a lie??

It's been a whole week and it's clear that she was really done with me

A maid gets into the office after the bodyguard allowed her

" Mr Kim, the tailor is here, your mother wants you to do the tuxedo fitting once again for the last arrangements "

I breath deeply but quietly

What if Jungkook forgot about me and I'm cursed to walk down the aisle tomorrow morning?

What if Jungkook remembered me and did what he planned to do but Kailah rejects me once again and I find myself walking down the aisle tomorrow morning?

I have so many scenarios in my head right now

But I know that no matter what's gonna happen today, I won't marry Dae-Kyeong

Even if it means throwing myself off the balcony tomorrow, even if it means drowning myself in my bathtub before the wedding, I'm not going to marry Dae-Kyeong

" Yes " I utter as I stand up to leave the room

Around thirty bodyguards follow me as soon as I get up from my seat

I feel like a criminal sentenced to death who is kept under high surveillance so that he does not escape before serving his sentence

I get into the supposed room where the tailor is waiting for me, get changed into what is supposed to be my wedding suit

the tailor is still taking measurements even though the suit is finished, he notes the adjustments he needs to make and the modifications according to my mother's taste...and to think that I didn't even have a say in my own suit

The door pushed open and my mother walks in with a big smile

I bet she is happy seeing me this obedient
