Thick eyebrows, sharp dark eyes, the strands of hair falling over his forehead, and the muscular arms visible beneath the tight-fitting shirt… along with the faint smile resting at the corner of his lips — Taehyung stared at his own reflection in the mirror with pride shining in his eyes. “Perfect.” Murmuring to himself, Picking up the blazer that lay on the bed, he walked toward his mother’s room. Before leaving for work, visiting his mother every morning had become a habit for him. “mom… take your medicine and rest well until I come back. Exercise a little with nanny and try to walk more. Aunt will come by in the afternoon too.” “Be careful, Tae.” After placing a kiss on his mother’s forehead, Taehyung got into his Audi and started driving toward the office while calling his one and only trustworthy friend, Jimin. “Where are you?” “At the office. Where are you now?” “I’ll be there in ten minutes.” “Hmm, hurry up. Let’s go meet Choi together.” “Alright, I’ll hang up then.” “Okay, bye.” After ending the call, Taehyung drove even faster toward his company. One of Taehyung’s habits was always doing things exactly on time without wasting even a second. And by eight-thirty, he had already arrived in front of the building labeled Choi Group of Companies. Although he first stopped by his own office, he immediately brought Jimin along and headed straight to the Choi company building. By then, his secretary Sooyoung had already arrived there as well. “Everything ready, Soo?” “Yes, sir.” “Good. We have to settle this today no matter what.” “At this point, coming to see this guy every week feels more tiring than visiting a girlfriend.” Jimin’s words brought smiles to both Taehyung and Sooyoung. Minho… Choi Minho was the only enemy in Taehyung’s life — one who existed in the past, present, and probably the future too. He was the husband of Taehyung’s mother’s sister. But according to Taehyung, Minho was nothing less than a murderer. And Minho felt the same way. In the business world, the only obstacle standing in Minho’s path was Taehyung. Even at such a young age, Taehyung had already achieved countless accomplishments. Youngest Businessman of the Year was one of the latest titles he had earned. ....................... Watching the scenery beyond the rain-covered window, Saemi sat quietly on her bed. After placing the coffee cup in her hand onto the table, she slowly walked toward the window. “So beautiful…!!” Saemi whispered softly to herself. “SAEMIIII… COME HERE!” Lost in the rain as if under a spell, Saemi flinched at the sound of Yura’s voice — her stepmother. “SAEMIIII! ARE YOU DEAF OR WHAT?!” The moment Yura shouted again, Saemi hurried downstairs. She already knew very well that the next time her stepmother called her, it wouldn’t be with words alone. “Can’t you hear me when I call once?!” “Mianhae…” “Massage my legs.” Sitting on the floor beside the sofa where her stepmother rested, Saemi quietly began massaging Yura’s legs while Yura leaned back and closed her eyes comfortably. “What exactly is going on here?” Both Yura and Saemi startled at the sudden voice from the doorway. “Jungkook…” Standing there was Jungkook — the son of Yura and Minho. In the entire Choi household, the only person who treated Saemi like a human being was Jungkook. “Mom… I told you not to make sister do these things.” “Jungkook, I was just—” “You stay quiet, sis. Mom, If you need a servant, I’ll hire one for you. But if you make her do things like this again, I won’t stay silent.” No matter how strict Yura was, the love she had for her son made her unable to ignore Jungkook’s words.
