"Maybe...you'll fall in love with me all over again."
"Hell," I said, "I love you enough now. What do you want to do? Ruin me?"
"Yes. I want to ruin you."
"Good," I said. "That's what I want too."--

"I want you to attend a business meeting with me.", Jungkook said fidgeting  with his hands. It didn't take a genius to realise how nervous he was.

"Where is your wife?", I said. My chest felt oddly tight for some unknown reason. I had a vague idea about his wife's whereabouts but nobody wants to learn his wife's wrongdoings from a stranger right? Well technically I wasn't exactly a stranger to him but I wasn't close to him either.

"Probably pleasuring some man she doesn't know or something like that.", he grumbled. I want you dress up elegantly but don't wear something eye catching. I hate unwanted attention and for some reason I think you're not a fan of attention either. Correct me if I am wrong.", he said with an air of confidence.

"Oh my my! Aren't you a confident bloke? Yes you're absolutely right. I don't like being the centre of attention. Am I that obvious Mr.Jeon?".

"Well not really but we have a lot in common, remember?", he winked at me.  I chuckled at his cute behaviour and playfully slapped his butt.

"Stop acting like a frat boy. We are not in high school.", I snorted.

"I guess I never got over my emo phase.", he said.

"If you know your wife is not loyal to you,  why are you still with her?", I timidly asked him. But the expression on his face made me realise that I shouldn't have asked him this question.

"I love her too much to let her go.", he calmly said. But there was a touch of hesitation in his voice. Or maybe I was imaging things.

"Anyway when do I have to attend the meeting?".

"At nine pm. Please keep it in your mind that I am not looking for any kind of physical intimacy. Are you willing to accompany me tonight or nah?".

"Depends on the price you're willing to pay.", I said. Well ya'll know me. Money comes before everything.

"200000 won. I will pay you two lakh won for attending a business meeting with me. How does that sound to you?.", he said.

"Okay Mr. I-am-rich that sounds perfect to me. All I have to do is  attend a meeting with you and look pretty, right?".

"Absolutely. So you're attending the meeting with me right?, he asked me cutely. "Mind if I ask you a question?", he said, scratching his head.

"Go on.", I urged.

"Why out of all the professions you have chosen this profession?". Why did I see this coming?

" Well, that's a story for another time.  I should go now. It's getting pretty late. See you at nine. Thanks for the meal by the way. ", I said as I didn't want to open up to him. Why would I open up to someone I barely knew?

"Aish it's nothing. See you at night.", he said before opening the door. I stepped out of the door and  turned around to wave at him. He waved back at me with a small smile on his handsome face before closing the door.

If you're wondering what I was doing in his house then keep wondering.

A/N: That's all for today. I hope this chapter is not as boring as the previous chapters. Happy reading.
