Third person's Pov
We reached home as he placed the bags on the kitchen Island as Yn started putting the groceries away as he leaned against the counter watching her. he wasn't quite sure as to why he was standing there when he could have minded his own business and watched Tv or something.
"Do you need help?" I asked and she paused whatever she was doing and stared at him surprised.
"Help? From you?" She asked quite surprised
"Well, I can be useful" He shrugged.
she thought for a moment and said "Sure... Put these away." She said handing him a few items and went back to putting the fresh vegetables in the fridge and placed the items one by one in the fridge in order. The way she did everything didn't for once feel like she came from a rich family as well.
"Can you cook?" She asked.
"Well you wouldn't want to see me attempt. I can make coffee, make instant noodles, maybe basic pasta , sandwich and stuff and boil water. Beyond that, It's quite questionable" He said with a shrug.
"And here i thought you would be a perfectionist at cooking even though you know nothing about picking out groceries" she said shaking her head with a laugh.
"Well You see, I don't like to fail so i tend to avoid doing things I know Im terrible at." He said as she nodded and kept the rest in the pantry when she heard his deep voice say.
"You want to cook together tonight?" He asked as she blink in surprise.
"You.." she said pointing to him "You want to cook together?" she asked visibly surprised. It was weird to her that he suggested something like that considering the fact that he hated her.
"I thought you hated me but sure" she said and he muttered.
"This doesn't mean anything for the record. Im just saying since we both have to eat." He said.
"Alright but ill take the lead" she said nodding.
"And ill try not to burn the kitchen" He said with a grin.
"Alright CEO Kim. Follow my instructions" She said.
"Just this Once Mrs.Kim" He said as she once again stared at him blinking in surprise.. She felt her cheeks burned as he looked just as surprised.
"I'm sorry.. It just slipped ..didn't mean anything with it" He said a bit embarrassed as she nodded and they began cooking.
They decided to make Bibimbap and Jajangmyeon. Just as they started cooking , Taehyung's phone rang loudly, vibrating against his pocket as he looked at it and his relaxed expression turned serious. It was one of his trusted men.
His gaze turned serious as he stepped away from the kitchen. Yn noticed the sudden change in his demeanor as she watched him curiously as he walked into the living room holding the phone to his ears.
"Yes" he spoke into the phone. All the traced of how soft he was earlier vanished into thin air she watched him.
"Sir, We found information about the third party. It could be the group that might have pulled the strings." His men spoke.
"Do we have a name?" He asked.
"No sir. Not yet." His men continued to relay the information they had found to taehyung. Taehyung's hand curled into a fist, his knuckles turning white.
Yn over heard a few words "Evidence" "documents" "Transactions" from the conversation.
"I need the information about what is going on. I need names. And that too fast" He said sternly with a cold tone before ending the call. He stared at his phone with a blank face.
Yn stepped into the living room "Is everything alright?" She asked tentatively.
"It's about the third party" He muttered.
"What about them? Did they find something?" She asked.
"They found some lead even tho its not much. This person was a common link to my grandfather and your father. Someone who benefited from all this mess. This is much deeper than i thought." He said running a hand through his hair.
"So it wasn't just my father?" she asked softly.
He shook his head and said "He was caught in this mess just like my grandfather."
"But why would someone do this?" She asked.
"You don't know the corporate world. Power. Money. Control. The same reasons causing different chaos everytime." he said before adding "We have to be careful. If they get to know we are hunting them. We might be in danger." He said looking serious before he walked out.
"Hey wait. I wanna say something" She called out as he stopped and turned around.
She softly said "Well, Im being announced as the CEO of my father's company since Jungkook doesn't want it. So we have to go there and my uncle is creating quite the chaos wanting the CEO post"
"What happened to jungkook?" Taehyung asked curiously.
"Well, he resigned. He never wanted to be a CEO but took over it because of my father's sudden death. He want to focus on himself and his own passion. and well my uncle Mr.Kang Jae-won is trying to sabotage my image and trying to get the board members on his side. He has been threatening me to give up the position. He will ruin the company." she said.
"Well, I'll make sure nothing happens. And do get ready for the ceremony" He said and left to his home office.
She decided to watch Tv as she sat flipping through channels and decided to watch reality shows as she curled up on the couch. The weight of her uncle's potential plan of sabotaging the company and her position along with the involvement of the third party in the deaths in their families weighed heavily on her mind. She sighed and took up sauntering into his office room.
"How's it going?" She asked
"I'm digging into the filed my men sent me tryna connect the dots and find something." He muttered running his hand through his tousled hair.
"It's gonna take some time i guess" He said focusing back on the computer.
"How about you take a break? and give me company?" she questioned.
"I think i need to push this longer. You can give me company though." He said with a chuckle as she sat on the couch nearby.
"Alright, but if i get bored I might ask you about your childhood" She sighed dramatically.
"That's a risk Im not willing to take" He said with a smirk before typing something.
After a few moments of silence.
"Do you ever think how crazy all this is? I mean this marriage, the tension between our families. It feels like a soap opera" she muttered from the sofa she was lying on.
He turned his chair towards her and leaned back "Crazy doesn't even cover half of it. But Im starting to ease up to you and not hate you since i know that you father might not be the reason behind my grandfather's death" He said.
"yeah That is clear. But the fact if you and your father killed my father isn't clear" she muttered.
"Well I can assure you I didn't do it. I'm not sure about my father but we still hate each other quite a bit. It would be a miracle if we can stay together without wanting to kill each other" He said with a chuckle.
"This has been so complicated and heavy on me. This marriage just caused me a whole load of tension and stress for no reason." She muttered.
"But Im glad we aren't so tense like before." He said with a smile.
This was the start of something new. Even though they weren't in love, they surely learnt to live with each other.
