The next morning, the internet exploded.

Headlines everywhere.

"Kim Taehyung Rejects Billion-Dollar Engagement for Mystery Woman."
"Who Is The Girl Who Cost Him His Inheritance?"

Y/N POV

My phone wouldn't stop vibrating.

Unknown numbers.
Messages.
Social media notifications.
My name was trending.

They called me a gold digger.

A manipulator.

A trap.

I dropped my phone on the couch, hands shaking.

This was never supposed to be public.

The door knocked suddenly.

Hard.

I froze.

When I opened it—

Taehyung stood there.

No suit.
No driver.
No security.

Just him.

"They froze my accounts," he said calmly.

My heart dropped.

"My cards. Access. Everything."

"You're joking."

"I'm not."

He stepped inside, looking around my small house.

"This is officially my only safe place now."

I stared at him.

"You lost everything."

"No," he said quietly.

"I walked away from it."

There's a difference.

Before I could respond, his phone rang.

He answered.

His expression darkened.

"What?" he said sharply.

Silence. Then— "They're doing what?"

My stomach twisted.

He hung up slowly.

"They're targeting you."

"What do you mean?". I answered

"They resigned you from THE company." Taehyung said.
My breath stopped.

The message was clear. Punish him through her.

I laughed softly — but there was no humor in it.

"So this is war?"

He looked at me.

"No," he said calmly.

"This is my family."

Silence filled the room.

Then something shifted in his expression.

Not panic.

Not regret.

Strategy.

"They think I need their company to survive," he said slowly.

"They think I can't build something on my own."

I crossed my arms.

"Can you?"

He looked at me — steady and confident.

"Yes."

And for the first time...

I didn't see a fallen heir.

I saw a man who had never actually been tested before.

"They want a business war?" he continued.

"Fine."

He stepped closer.

"But this time, I'm not fighting alone."

My heart skipped.

"This isn't a fairytale anymore," I said softly.

"I know." He said 

"This is going to be ugly." y/n said 

"I know." He smirked

"They're powerful." 

He gave me a small, determined smile.
"So am I."
