"I told you to get rid of every newspaper and magazine that had to do with Ji Uri being a criminal. We're one of the top journalists and we cannot be beat out by other ridiculous companies that only spew out shitty headlines and articles. Do better."

"Yes, Mr. Kim."

"Oh, Hoseok? Why don't you take the lead on the Ji Uri section and really write about how innocent and human she is. You know, talk about how she was only a child that needed to survive in the world," Taehyung suggested.

"Yes, Mr. Kim. I will get right on it."

Once Hoseok left, Taehyung sat back in his chair and sighed. He rested his forehead on the edge of his desk.

"How did you do this, Uri?" Taehyung whispered. "I can't do this. I can't command people to do things or act angry and be mean. It completely goes against who I am as a person."

Taehyung lifted his head and turned his chair around, looking at the great view he had from his office. He could see all of Seoul from the tall company he inherited from his father.

Ever since Taehyung took over, the company had been making more money and beat out other journaling companies. His father was so proud of him from his relaxing retirement home in Hawaii.

The intercom on his desk beeped. Taehyung turned around in his chair and pressed a button next to the microphone.

"Mr. Kim, the lawyer you hired is here."

"Fantastic. Please bring him up here, Mari."

"Of course, Sir."

The other end of the line beeped and a man dressed in a suit with a briefcase walked in.

"Mr. Kim?"

"Mr. Min Yoongi?" Taehyung asked back.

Yoongi nodded. "I'm here to discuss your case about Ji Uri. You want to break her out, correct?"

"Correct. No other lawyer wanted to do it."

Yoongi smirked. "Well, other lawyers are wimps. They're scared the mafia will come after them once they break out of jail."

"I'm glad to see you're not like them."

The two stared at each other in silence before breaking out into a fit of giggles.

"You stupid bitch," Yoongi muttered.

Taehyung smiled. "It's good to see you again."
