Fated Love 💕🎍(Under Editing)

Found him!

Taehyun's eyes locked onto Beomgyu, his heart skipping a beat.

Four months ago, they had met briefly at a party, exchanging mere seconds of eye contact. Yet, Taehyun couldn't shake off the memory.

He still remember how pretty Beomgyu looked when he wore that dark blue outfit.

He could help but glance at him throughout that party but had no courage to go and talk to him at that time and now he is again in front of him:
Taehyun's mind raced: "What is he doing here?"

He hid behind the pillar Kicking the air as he felt so excited and happy seeing his love in front of him as it was so unexpected.

He struggled to compose himself, taking deep breaths.

As he approached Soobin and Yeonjun's , his gaze drifted back to Beomgyu.

Beomgyu, oblivious to Taehyun's intense stare, chatted with Yeonjun.

Taehyun's thoughts swirled: "Stay calm, don't draw attention."

He forced a neutral expression, hiding his excitement.
Soobin noticed Taehyun's return and turned to him.

"Taehyun, what's wrong?" He asked.

Taehyun shook his head, attempting to be non chalant.
"Nothing, just... lost in thought."

Soobin raised an eyebrow but dropped the subject.

The speech session started,

All sat on there places.

Soobin's eyes flicked between Taehyun and Beomgyu, sensing a connection.

Taehyun's gaze kept drifting back to Beomgyu, his expression soft.

"Taehyun, do you know Beomgyu?" Soobin whispered.

Taehyun's head jerked toward Soobin, his eyes widening.

"How did you...?" Taehyun trailed off.

Soobin smirked knowingly.
"Your face says it all."

Taehyun's cheeks flushed as Soobin nudged him playfully.
"Spill it, Taehyun. What's between you and Beomgyu?"

Taehyun hesitated before leaning in.

"He is the one... The party....", he couldn't say further but it was enough for Soobin to understand.

Soobin's eyes went wide,
"What? He is the one???"

Taehyun nodded.

A wide smile spread on Soobin's face.

He was so relieved that Taehyun had finally found the boy he had been dreaming of since long.

The lights shifted to the stage, where Mr. Choi Yeon-woo and Hwang Min-jae (Yeonjun and Beomgyu stepbrother) stood.

"Welcome, esteemed guests," Mr. Choi Yeon-woo began. "Today, we are  celebrating our new project innovation that........"

Hwang Min-jae's smiled looking at the people.
"Our partnership with Lee Corporation will propel us forward."

Yeonjun's hands clenched into fists.
He sat there his hands folded against his chest with neutral expression.
While,
Beomgyu was all angry glaring at Hwang showing his younger sibling traits.

Soobin looked at them and found it quite confusing.

Mr. Choi Yeon-woo's gaze flicked to Yeonjun and Beomgyu.

"A united front is crucial," Mr. Choi Yeon-woo emphasized.
Hwang Min-jae's eyes locked onto Yeonjun.

"Some may doubt our vision, but we will prevail."
Beomgyu's jaw tightened.

Yeonjun placed a reassuring hand on Beomgyu's shoulder as if telling him to stay calm.

As the speech concluded, the audience applauded.

Yeonjun's eyes met Soobin's who was looking at him as if piercing his soul.

As the session end,

Yeonjun stood tall, his voice calm and assertive.
"I understand your concerns, Sir.
But our stance remains unchanged."

Mr. Choi Yeon-woo sneered.
"Unchanged? You're still stubborn, Yeonjun. Hwang, on the other hand, understands the importance of cooperation."

Hwang Min-jae smiled smugly.
"Thank you, Father. I'm glad I can contribute to the family's success."

Beomgyu's eyes darted towards him:
"Contribute? You're just a leech, sucking our family dry!"

Yeonjun placed a calming hand on Beomgyu's shoulder.
"Beomgyu, let's not-"

But Beomgyu shook him off.
"No, Hyung! I won't stay silent while they ruin our peace!"

Mr. Choi Yeon-woo's expression turned sharp:
"Ah, Beomgyu, still so impulsive.
You'd do well to learn from Hwang Min-jae."

Hwang Min-jae chuckled.
"Yes, Beomgyu. I'm the future of this family. You're just a relic of the past."

At a distance stood Soobin and Taehyun who came there to meet Yeonjun.
Soobin's brow furrow looking at the scene.
He was unable to understand the situation.

Yeonjun's voice remained calm.
"Mr. Choi, we don't want to engage in petty insults. Our focus not what you think."

Beomgyu exploded.
"You're just using us for your own gain!"

Mr. Choi Yeon-woo's smile grew wider.
"Ah, Beomgyu, you are being ridiculous. If I care about my profit then you don't even know how I can use you both."

"Beomgyu, let's take a break," Yeonjun said, his voice low.

But Beomgyu shook his head.
"No, Hyung! He doesn't have the right to say that to me.!"

Hwang Min-jae smirked.
"Beomgyu you think by all this you are going to win against us.
We can destroy you in seconds"
Hwang Min-jae said, rolling his eyes.

Yeonjun's jaw clenched.
"Hwang stop! It's a request''

But Hwang was still provoking Beomgyu.
He leaned in.
"I got father's support and trust, what about you?" Hwang Min-jae whispered.

"You think you're better than me?", He remarked.

Yeonjun's eyes locked onto Hwang Min-jae.
He smiled before saying;
"Your tactics may work with Father, Min-jae, but they won't work with me."

Hwang Min-jae looked at him.
"Oh? And what makes you so confident?"

"Because I have integrity, something you'll never understand. You may have Father's favor, but you'll never have the respect of our family's employees or partners.", Yeonjun said.

Beomgyu nodded in agreement.

Mr. Choi Yeon-woo's expression turned uneasy.
"Hwang Min-jae, perhaps-"

But Yeonjun cut him off.
"No, sir. Let Min-jae understand the consequences of his actions. His greed will be his downfall."

Hwang Min-jae's face became pale.
"You'll regret this, Yeonjun."

Yeonjun smiled calmly.
"I'm not afraid of you, Min-jae.",
He said in his bold voice.

Mr. Choi signals Hwang to drop the conversation and left the place.
