Continuous of last chapter:

"Kim Taehyung, meet your soon-to-be wife, Kim Jennie," my father said, his lips curling into a smirk of pride. My mind raced—was he serious? Why, how, and so suddenly? A flood of questions overwhelmed me, leaving me speechless.

"What do you mean, Dad?" I finally managed to ask, confusion evident on my face. His smirk only grew more sinister—the smirk I had learned to dread. That smirk always meant trouble was coming.

"You heard me right, son. Jennie's father and I are merging our businesses, and to solidify the deal, we've arranged your wedding. It's happening this weekend," he said, with no hesitation.

This weekend? No, this can't be happening. I can't marry Jennie. My heart belongs to Jungkook. I was still grappling with how to refuse my father when my gaze shifted to Jennie. She sat beside her mother, her hands clenched tightly in her mother's grip. Her eyes seemed hollow, lifeless.

"Dad, did you ask her if she agrees to this?" I asked, pointing at Jennie. Laughter erupted from both fathers. What was so funny?

"I must say, Jiwon, your son has a soft heart," Jennie's father remarked, smirking at my dad, who smirked back. Something was clearly off between these two.

"Can I talk to her in private?" I asked. To my surprise, both sets of parents agreed, telling me to take her to my room. I led Jennie upstairs, her footsteps dragging behind me like those of a ghost.

"Come in, Jennie," I said gently, motioning for her to sit on the bed. I sat beside her, noticing how her gaze remained glued to the floor.

"What's wrong?" I asked, placing a hand on her shoulder. The moment she met my eyes, her tears started falling. In seconds, she was sobbing uncontrollably in my arms.

"Shh, it's okay. Tell me what happened," I soothed, wiping her tears.

"L-Lisa...they...took her," Jennie managed to say between sobs, her voice breaking with every word.

"Wait, Lisa? Your girlfriend?" I asked, trying to piece together her words. Jennie nodded, struggling to speak.

"They kidnapped her, Taehyung. They took her away," she whispered, her voice trembling as she recounted the ordeal.

Flashback—Jenlisa

Jennie was driving, while Lisa sat beside her, using her makeup and occasionally playing games on her phone.

"Baby, where are we going?" Lisa asked, pouting adorably.

"I'm taking you to the hospital," Jennie replied, keeping her focus on the road.

"I don't wanna go! They always give me shots!" Lisa whined, her playful demeanor making Jennie chuckle.

"You need to, Lisa. You've been having chest pains for weeks. I'm not risking anything when it comes to you," Jennie said, her voice soft with concern.

Lisa pouted again. "But-" she tried to protest but Jennie cut her in sentence "no buts! I can't afford to lose you!" she said making Lisa pout.

Their playful banter was cut short when a van swerved in front of their car, forcing Jennie to slam on the brakes. Jennie immediately stepped out of the car, furious.

"What the hell is your problem?!" Jennie yelled at the two men who emerged from the van. Lisa, sensing danger, ran behind Jennie.

But before Jennie could confront the men further, one of them grabbed Lisa and held a knife to her throat.
