Abandoned

Nine

Tae knew that no matter what he said to his mother, she would always choose her and the company before him.

But he was determined to get out of this marriage. He just needed to get some things in order before he could make a move.

"Well? What do you mean by the baby not being yours?"

He took a deep breath and said, "It's exactly what I said. She's been sleeping with someone that's not me.

She already knows what you will decide regarding this matter. That's why she has no qualms coming over here and announcing her pregnancy to beloved her mother-in-law."

She glanced at the witch and she fluttered her eyelashes, as if she had no idea what he meant.

"I don't know what he's talking about. I-I.."

He cut her off before she could finish and he leaned in close to her ear and whispered, "Be careful what you say..
otherwise you'll be left with nothing. Tell her you don't feel well then go home."

She moved away from him and glared for a bit before she suddenly started her acting.

"Oh! I suddenly don't feel well. I think I'll just have the driver take me home."

His mother stands up and rushes to her side.

"Are you sure? We can have him take you to the hospital to get you checked out."

"N-no.. I think once I lay down for a bit, that I'll start to feel alot better. I'll call you later when I wake up to let you know how I feel."

She then walked out and his mother then turned her attention to him.

"I don't know what's going on between the two of you, but get your shit together.

You're not in grade school anymore for us to be going around fixing your mistakes.

Your father and I went through alot to get an in with her family's business. So don't fuck things up. Now get out of here and fix whatever mess you have."

Still the sweetest mother ever.

He rolls his eyes and heads back downstairs. He see Jin's friend Jimin again and he seems like he wants to avoid him.

It's probably due to his aura. He can seem cold hearted to people.

But he thinks he will need Jimin's help these next couple of days, so he calls him over to him.

He can sense his hesitation but being his boss, he comes when he calls.

"Yes sir? How may I help you sir?" He asked.

He wanted to pinch his cheeks. He's cute like a doll.

"Yes, please follow me for a few minutes."

Once he notifies the other front desk clerk that he needs to speak with Jimin, he then leads him over to the lounge and bar area.

He finds a quiet spot for him to speak to him. Several employees looked at them so he glared at them and they quickly walked away. They probably thought he was being reprimanded.

"Did I do something wrong sir?" He asked nervously.

"No, nothing wrong. But I need to speak with you about something important. So I need to know I have your full discretion."

"Y-yes sir. Whatever you say sir."

"I don't know what you know about Jin or what he's been going through but I need your help."

"What do you mean going through? Is he ok? What about the baby?" He suddenly looked panicked.

"He's been going through alot of suffering at the hands of the person he was living with."
