Taehyung's pov

An hour later, Appa stood up soon followed by Mr. Min, Mr. Jung and Mr. Wang " I'm away until Friday, and would like to extend an invitation to attend a barbecue my wife Jin and I are having on Saturday."

I knew what that mean - a little gathering, or a last kick until I will have their trust in this matter.

Appa turned to me "with jungkook of course."

I nodded my head "he'll love it."

Back on my floor, I walked towards my cabin and saw Mr. Jeon on his desk. Although he was on his phone, I felt his eyes watching me as I crossed his path. No doubt, he was waiting for my wrath to descend on him for whatever reason I would pick out today. But instead I just give a small smile and entered my office.

After some minutes, I stretched over my desk and punched the intercom button
Mr. Jeon answered, sounding more cautious "Mr. Kim?"

"I need a tea. "

"anything else sir?"

" a few moments of ur time."

He said in a stuttering manner "rrr... right a - way!!"

I turned my chair towards the window and heaved a sigh, I couldn't believe what I was about to do

I hope I wouldn't fail-God help Me -either way.

"I DON'T UNDERSTAND", I murmured to the phone trying to remain calm "I didn't receive any notice regarding the increase"

"I know Mr. Jeon we received the instruction two days ago which is why I'm calling to inform u about the change."

I swallowed the lump in my throat five hundred dollars more a month when I need to pay.

" are u there Mr. Jeon?"

"I'm sorry -what did you say?"

"I was telling abt the new fee structure."

"is this even legal??"

The women in the phone sighed "It's a privately run home care Mr. Jeon. One of the best in the city, but they also make their own rule. There are other places where u can move ur aunt -maybe government run-"

"No." I insisted "I don't want to do that. She's so well cared for and settled."

"or you could shift her into another rooms semi private one."

I rubbed my head in frustration. Those rooms wouldn't have the garden view -or space for aunt Anna's memoir and art books. She would be so unhappy and lost. I had to keep her in the same room. No matter what.

Mr. Kim walked in the office, staring at me. I hesitated before saying anything, unsure if he would stop, he walked away that to with a small smile.

Strange,and he doesn't even acknowledged me, nor that he ever did, unless it was to curse or yell.

I hunged up my call and stared at my desk, for few minutes, my mind running a mile per minute.

They paid me well here at Kim industries -I was one of the highest salaried PA's because I work for Mr. Kim. He was horrible to work for - well perks of being Workaholic - his dislike for me obvious. However, I did it because of the good amount I'm being paid which all went to care for my aunt Byun Anna .

I already live in the cheapest place I could find. I cut my own hairs, bought my clothes at second-hand stores, and my diet mostly contained of ramen and a lot of cheap peanut butter and jelly sandwich. I splurged on nothing using every opportunity to save a little.

I blinked away the tears that were building.

How was I going to come up with another five hundred dollars per month? I already lived from paycheck to paycheck and couldn't even ask for raise. I would have to get a second job that means less time with my imo Anna.

I hunged my head. I hated my life. I hated being a PA. I hated being PA of Mr. Kim. I had never known anyone so cruel. Nothing I did was ever enough.

At first I thought how bad could he be

Oh!! How wrong I had been.

He made my life hell and I took it because I had no other choice.

My intercom buzzed. I steadied my nerves "Mr. Kim?"

"I need a tea. "

"anything else sir?"

"a few moments of ur time."

I shut my eyes wondering what was about to happen, "right away!"

Carrying his coffee I knocked, entering only when he bade me to come in. I had made that mistake once and never intend to do it again. His biting remarks had stung for days over the infraction.

I made sure my hands didn't shake as I placed his coffee and readied my notebook for his instructions.

"sit down Mr. Jeon."

My heart began to hammer . Had he finally convinced to senior Kim to let him fire me? I knew he'd been trying it from the first week I worked for him. I tried to keep my breathing even. And sat down before my legs could give out "is there a problem Mr. Kim?"

"what we discussed in this office will remain confidential!"

"yes sir."

He nodded and reached for his cup sipping his tea." I need to seek with you on a personal matter."

I was confused. He never discussed anything with me unless it was to shout on his demand. "all right?"

He glanced around, looking nervous. He was ridiculously handsome. With a tall height, broad shoulders and trim waist. He was the poster child for how to make a suit look good. He was clean shaven most of the time, which highlighted his profile. He kept his hair short from sides but longer on top. With those deep ocean eyes and those pouty lips which will form a box shaped smile. He was perfect, I know many women and men envied him.

He continued talking "I need to ask something from you. In doing so, I will be placing a huge amount of trust in ur discretion. I need you to honor my trust."

I blinked at him feeling relieved that he wasn't going to fire me. "of course sir. what can I do?"

He reached for his card and scribbled something on its back

"I need you to come to this address at evening. Can you be there at seven?"

I glanced at card. The address wasn't too far from my home and even close to the home care where I could visit aunt after work.

"is there any problem Mr. Jeon?"

"I had an appointment after work sir. I'm not sure I can make it there by seven"

"seven - thirty? Eight? Can u work with that?"

"Fine. I'll be there at eight" I paused and ask before leaving  "Mr. Kim is everything alright?"

"my doorman would send u up right away. I'll inform them that u will be coming."

His doorman.?? He was asking me to come at his home??

I glanced at him with my wide eyes

"thank u for the tea and ur time. Mr. Jeon." he said making me double shocked and left the office room

Never once in my life he has ever said thank you to me form the day one.

What the hell was going on????
