"Mr. Jeon, here are the shortlisted resumes." Sang Byeol, the front office receptionist and assistant dropped two black folders on his desk. "If there's nothing else, shall I leave for the day?" She clasped her hands in the front.
"Yeah, you can leave," Jungkook answered without taking his eyes off his computer. Once she left, he turned to his best friend for over ten years and senior vice-president Kim Taehyung who was on his phone. "Taehyungie hyung, can you go through the files? I'll need one more hour before I can call it a day."
Taehyung lifted his gaze from the phone, his boxy smile disappearing. "There are hundreds of them this time. You want me to go through them all?" He pouted for a moment before putting the phone aside on the rich, mahogany table and reached to pick a file.
Jungkook just smiled at him with a small shake of his head. The fun loving and flamboyant Taehyung always complained. But he was the best he could ask for. A genius in his own terms and a crackhead when he wasn't working.
He eyed the files briefly. His company has had a high reputation in the job market. The position as his personal manager wasn't that simple. It came with many responsibilities. He never had to worry with his former personal manager Jasmine around. She started as his father's personal assistant and then became Jungkook's personal manager when he took over. Now that she has retired due to health issues, he wanted highly qualified male candidates. However, he wasn't sure if they'll be half as good as her.
Taehyung lazily flipped through the pages. "They are all well-qualified with years of experience. Impressive," his friend talked to himself as Jungkook worked.
Of course, they will be impressive. This wasn't just any other company. This was Jeon Corporation, one of the top and most influential companies in the country with 180 branches across the world. They were also the highest paying company with the best employee benefits in the industry. Getting into Jeon Corporation was a dream for many.
For the next hour, Jungkook immersed himself in his work. Year-end was always busy and as usual their company ranked number one even this time for the fourth consecutive year. His father would be impressed. After he took over the business five years ago, he was able to beat their rival of two decades and managed to stay on top.
A sigh drifted off his lips as he sent the last email, shutting his computer. He rubbed his tired eyes and stretched his neck. "Are you done?" He lifted a brow and glanced at his friend when he didn't respond.
"Hyung..."
No response.
"Tae hyung?"
It was then Jungkook noticed the frown on his face. What made the cheerful one in the room all gloomy? He suppressed the urge to tease. Tae wasn't that easily affected by something. Intrigued, he stood and went to his friend who was glaring at the file. His blood ran cold as soon as his gaze landed on the resume. He snatched the file from Taehyung with a low growl.
Is it...him?
His breathing quickened as he searched for the name.
Park fucking Jimin.
It was a name he thought he'd never hear again. A name associated to a face that still haunted his dreams.
With a shaky finger, he traced the photo of the brown-colored hair man with a genuine smile. Beside him, Taehyung jumped to his feet. "He dared to apply for his job after everything he has done to you?" He snatched the file back. "Bastard."
Blood rushed to Jungkook's head. How long had it been? Five or six? He shook his head. It was six. His heart hammered as memories from the past flooded him. Why now?
