Dating A Jeon Series [Jeon IZA x Park JIMIN] #thewattys2019

73 - Worlds a part

Mr. Park threw the papers on the table. He was unimpressed by Jimin's business report. And lately, Jimin had been slacking off to work.

Mr. Park:
   "Very insufficient! Have you seen Mr. Kim's son? Kim Namjoon-ssi is a very successful man already."

Jimin wanted to roll his eyes but he couldn't do that in front of his father.

Mr. Park:
   "I want you to be as good as him. No ~ better than him. If you want to replace my seat then you have to do things right!"

There went the comparison again.
How Jimin wished he could tell his father that he didn't want it. But he had no choice.

Mr. Park took anothee folder and bitterly handed it to Jimin.

Mr. Park:
    "And you didn't have a great  deal with the Chinese investors! How can I even call you my own son?"

Okay, that hurts Jimin a lot. But he had to do those failures so he could do what he wanted to do.

Delay the wedding day until further notice.

Jimin:
   "Sorry, sir. I just needed more time."

Uhmm, true! More time to postpone the wedding!

Great reasoning!

Mr. Park slammed his fist on the table while glaring at his son.

Mr. Park:
   "You have to work harder."

Jimin nodded. And at the back of his mind, he was totally rejoicing.

Mr. Park:
   "And one more thing."

Jimin looked at his father. Wondering what would he say.

Mr. Park:
    "Patch things up with Miss Wang."

Jimin didn't say a word. Now that Soojung was under surveillance, Baekhyun couldn't get through her. And after the silence of both family's regarding the issue, of course they decided to still continue their partnership.

Jimin's Office.

Jimin heard Soojung's voice at the other line. She was yelling at him on the phone.

Soojung:
   "You are unbelievable! How dare you tell your dad that I will be going with you on your business trip abroad?"

Jimin giggled.

Jimin:
   "You will enjoy it, i promise."

Soojung:
   "Are you insane? You are!"

Jimin:
   "Well, I just thought it's a brilliant idea tho. We can go on our separate ways as soon as we make them believe we are together. You can be on a holiday vacation with Baekhyun-ssi. I heard you two get a long very well."

Soojung:
   "Ha ha ha ha! That is absurd! But I want Taehyungie ~ "

Jimin:
   "Ha ha ha ha! Very hilarious. No, can't do that."

Soojung:
   "Why not?"

Jimin:
    "You are still not his type."

Harsh words from Park Jimin.

Soojung:
   "Still not going :p"

Soojung ended the phone call.
