Taekook ?? "UNEXPECTED LOVE"

TWO WEEKS LATER

Today was a high-profile event, with numerous VIPs expected. Jimin, however, was unusually tense. Taehyung snatched the tie from his hands, a playful glint in his eyes. 'Spill, Jimin. What's bothering you?'

Jimin took a deep breath. 'There's a…venomous feeling radiating from you. This sudden desire to become CEO of a bankrupt hospital, even after our substantial donations…it doesn't make sense. Is this truly a profitable venture?'

Taehyung rolled his eyes, a touch of impatience in his voice. 'Oh, Jimin, just trust me. I have someone I need to teach a lesson". Besides, he give back the the thing, complaining,  "And this tie is incredibly frustrating to put on myself.'

Jimin snatched the tie back, his expression cool, "Fine. Do as you please, but for heaven's sake, don't create any scene. You'll be broadcast live." Taehyung nodded, a disarming, almost puppy-like expression on his face.

The hospital staff had gathered at the main gate, a floral display ready. Jungkook, feeling unwell, turned to Yoongi. "Hyung, why are we making such a fuss? Who's arriving?"

"Didn't't you hear the announcement? We're welcoming our new CEO," Yoongi replied. Jungkook sighed, his boredom evident.

Hoseok placed a comforting hand on his shoulder. "Cheer up, Jungkook-ah. Today's guest is one of South Korea's wealthiest chaebol."

A female staff member interjected, her eyes sparkling. 'It's not just his wealth. Have you seen him? He's incredibly handsome. Like a blue ocean in his eyes. Anyone would happily drown in them. He's simply…breathtaking.'
Jungkook chuckled. 'Ajumma, you're over fifty! What kind of lustness is this?'

She playfully tugged his ear. 'You disrespectful brat! Don't comment on my age. I'm young at heart!'

'Argh yes, Ajumma, let go! It hurts!'
Their playful banter was interrupted by a rising swell of excitement. The crowd began to chant, "Kim Taheyung" A sleek, black limousine pulled through the gates. The crowd surged forward, and bodyguards, aided by the police, cleared a path. Taehyung stepped out of the car, a practiced, serene smile on his face. He wore a crisp white shirt beneath a perfectly tailored blazer, his tie secured with a sleek clip."

His exposed forehead and sleek black hair accentuated his features. His beauty was striking. His sharp gaze, visible bright skin, took in the entire scene. The flashing lights of cameras surrounded him. The crowd greeted him with enthusiastic applause and bouquets. Jungkook, recognizing the guest as Kim Taehyung, the man he'd messed with, was visibly stunned. Taehyung casually walked the red carpet, glancing briefly at Jungkook before taking his seat.

The program began with loud applause. A woman welcomed everyone and announced, "Congratulations to Mr. Kim on becoming our CEO. Please say a few words." Taehyung cleared his throat and began, "Good morning, everyone. Thank you for being here."
He briefly glanced at Jungkook in the crowd, who looked away, gulping.

"Our organization is dedicated to supportin.................

A long speech.........................

[The event focused on the organization's charitable work, highlighting its support for surgeries, old age homes, and orphanages. These events also served as public relations.

However, Kim Taehyung is also involved in significant illegal activities, including complex financial crimes, operating through various shell companies and businesses. He owns numerous hotels and bars. His philanthropic work serves as a facade for these activities. Despite this, his true identity and illegal operations remain undetected.]

The speech concluded with enthusiastic applause, and the program ended. Taehyung smiled subtly and rose from his seat. He made an excuse to the others and began to walk. Jungkook, feeling uneasy after their previous encounter, hesitated. Yoongi, noticing Jungkook's unusual behavior, stopped him, placing his hands on his back. The woman excitedly nudged Jungkook, saying, "Look, he's coming this way. I can't believe it!" Jungkook froze, nervously licked his lips. Taehyung stopped in front of him and said, "Aren't you going to welcome your new CEO, Mr. Jeon?" Jungkook's heart raced, but he remained silent. Yoongi nudged him, urging him to speak. But, jungkook didn't even flinched from his place, yoongi gently pushed him  forward, forcefully made him bowed, "Hello, Mr. Kim. Nice to meet you." Taehyung accepted the flowers offered by Jungkook. He examined them and said smirkingly , " It's not Lilly, Roses are also good."

The woman asked, "Do you two know each other?"

"Yes, we've met before, haven't we, Mr. Jeon Jungkook?" Jungkook offered a strained smile.

The woman said, "Mr. Kim, it's an honor to meet you. Would you mind taking a selfie?"

"Of course. How about a group photo?" Everyone agreed. Taehyung quickly moved behind Jungkook, placing a hand lightly on his back. Jungkook tensed, moving sideways, making respectful distance, but Taehyung smiled and held his waist gently from behind , Jungkook was quite uncomfortable tried to lossened his gripped but taheyung didn't let him. and leaned in for the photo.

He whispered, "Don't be too obvious; you look funny."  They catch each other's gaze but his manager, Jimin, called from behind, "Mr. Kim, we're late for the next event. We need to leave."

"Alright then, have a nice day, everyone. Goodbye."

After his departure, the atmosphere noticeably relaxed. Jungkook opened a bottle of cold water and drank it quickly.
"Are you okay, Jungkook? You look pale," Yoongi asked, concerned.

"Yes, hyung," Jungkook replied wiping his Philtrum.

"Let's get back to work." He just nodded, his expression still stressed.
