Say Yes

Chapter 2

Hi please ignore any spelling mistakes, thank you. Also this chapter might be a bit confusing? Sorry for that

Softly closing the door to his black Mercedes-AMG E 53 4MATIC+ Coupe(idk shit abt cars sorryyyy),he made his way inside his parents' house.

'More like mansion.'

Upon entering, he was immediately greeted by the head maid.

"Welcome home, sir. Your parents are waiting for you at the dining hall."

Nodding gratefully towards her, Donghyuck made his way to said location, where his parents were indeed waiting for him. Upon setting eyes on him, both their faces lit up.
Mrs. Seo made her way to her youngest, squeezing him in a hug, followed by Mr. Seo when she stepped away.

"How have you been, son?"

"School's tiring, nothing new there. But I'm otherwise okay."

His father chuckled,ruffling his hair.

"That's good to hear. Now, let's eat. You're Mom made your favorites."

After dinner was done and over with, they all migrated to his father's study, after his parents' request to chat with him before he goes back to apartment. He sat down opposite his parents, his favorite drink(his mom's hot chocolate) cradled in his hands.

"So what did you guys wanted to discuss?"

His mother got up and moved to his side to face him, prompting him to put his cup down.

"Donghyuck,sweetie. Do you remember Mr. Lee? You're father's bestfriend from school?"

I vaguely remember meeting Mr. Lee and his family back when I was 7. It was during a family dinner, I think.
He was someone who's kind but oozes power abd authority. I nodded my head at my mom.

"Vaguely, but yea. His company had collaborated with us before, yes?"

This time, my dad's the one to speak up.

"Yes. On several occassions actually."

I nodded my head, still out of the loop as to why they're suddenly bringing him up. Noticing my confusion, my mother took my hands from where they were resting on my thighs.

"Honey, we know you're young and we're not by any means forcing you to do this, but you are aware of company partnerships/mergers through marriage,  correct?"

Of course I was, there's news about stuff like that. I've also been made aware of such arrangements since I was a wee little toddler.

"Of course I am, mother. But I don't see..."

I stared at my parents, eyes wide upon realizing what they're implying. My father opened his mouth, but I beat him to it.

"NO! How can you guys even consider this?!"

My mother, startled by my outburst, tried placating my growing temper. I stood up to avoid her soothing hands and start to pace around the study.

"I know it's a lot to take in, son. But it will not only benefit both companies, but also me and your mother would be at ease to know you will be taken care of by someone we know and trust."

I sharply turned to my father's direction in disbelief, not believing such words are being said.

"Dad! How can you even say that?! I don't care if it will put you guys at ease!! I will not be marrying a man who's the same age as my dad!"
