Chapter 51
"It's still early." Grandma peeked inside of the room. "Is Y/N okay?"
"She's okay. She is asleep." Jimin smiled.
"Then it's good. Follow me to the study room, I have something to say to you."
Jimin nodded, he supposed that Grandma wanted to talk about Jun Seo. Leaving the room, he held Grandma to help her walk to the study room.
"What happened to Jun Seo? Is he the mastermind of all this trouble?"
Jimin scoffed. "I doubt it. He's not that great."
Grandma nodded in agreement. They knew, someone like Jun Seo could only be a puppet. He couldn't possibly have planned such a detailed scheme.
Previously, the Song family was an influential and powerful family in Seoul. They were brilliant, it was a golden era for the Song family when Jun Seo's parents were still alive. But after Jun Seo took charge of the family company, it kept getting closer to its downfall. Jun Seo was not a good leader, wherever he goes, trouble follows.
Grandma had no doubt that one day the Song family would be completely ruined in Jun Seo's hand. Especially now he offended the Park family, she obviously wouldn't let him go.
"Who else is involved?"
Jimin took a seat across Grandma, his brow darkened as his lips pursed together. "He was in touch with Kim Yugyeom."
Grandma was confused. "Who is Kim Yugyeom?"
"Jeon Jungkook's assistant."
"Is he the mastermind of all this?" Grandma raised her eyebrow.
Jimin leaned on the sofa, staring at the ceiling. He shook his head. "We don't know that yet."
"How did you find Kim Yugyeom?"
Jimin then told Grandma the entire story. Indeed, it was not a simple scheme.
"Have Taehyung interrogate him to find who is behind all this."
"He's on it, Grandma. Let's see how it goes tomorrow."
Grandma's face turned dark, she kept thinking about the possibility of Jungkook's involvement. "If it's Jeon Jungkook, why did he do it?"
Every plan had its own motivation behind it, she wanted to analyze every possibility.
Jimin shrugged. "If that's the case, the only possibility was for Y/N."
Grandma turned silent. Being alive up to this day, she could understand a lot of things easily. After all, being this old, she had been seeing a lot of things happen. She couldn't easily believe Jungkook was the one behind this just because his assistant was involved.
But according to Jimin, she could conclude that indeed Jungkook was now one of the suspects. The only thing she doubted was that since Jungkook was deeply in love with Y/N, how could he be willing to deliberately hurt her?
"Grandma." Jimin suddenly said. "Do you know that the Jeon family has an illegitimate son? Jeon Jungkook's brother from a different mother."
Even though Grandma had retired from the business for years, it didn't mean that she completely neglected it. She still had a lot of information from her informants all over the city.
"Yes. Jeon Wonwoo. He is now working in the Jeon company but his position in the company is not that good. I supposed, he is in a fight with Jeon Jungkook at the moment."
Jimin nodded. "I'm a bit suspicious of Jeon Wonwoo, do you think he took part in this?"
Grandma was silent. She frowned, making the wrinkles around her mouth deepen. "You mean that Jeon Wonwoo possibly bribed Kim Yugyeom?"
"Exactly." Jimin nodded. "Even though there is no evidence of his involvement, he has a motivation to do this. He's battling against Jeon Jungkook with an ambition to take over the Jeon company. He wants to take him down so he used us to go against Jeon Jungkook."
Grandma furrowed her eyebrows and nodded. "Logically, it could be. But if that's the case, Jeon Wonwoo is a fool. How could he try to toy with the Park family?" She turned her head to see Jimin. "You need to investigate this thoroughly. Don't miss any details."
"I will, Grandma."
"How will you deal with Song Jun Seo?"
"I will handle it the same way I handle Neon Yun. I'm going to let the police take care of it."
"Good, do what you have to do. But it will create a sensation as a lot of things have happened recently." Grandma paused and her face showed a heavy expression. "Jimin, there will be an election meeting in the Park company soon. You need to handle everything carefully"
The Park family had been the lead family in Seoul for a long time, so it was clear that a lot of people were watching them.
"I understand." Jimin gazed at the watch on the wall. "Grandma, it's late. Let me take you to rest."

By the time Jun Seo was brought by the police car, Shin Ji created a big commotion. But still, it couldn't stop the police from taking him away. As her health was not the greatest, she fainted. Shin Ji always had a low blood pressure, it was easy for her to faint.
Y/N received a call from the Song family's butler, telling her about Shin Ji's condition. But when she arrived and entered her room, Shin Ji slapped her hard. "Are you satisfied now that your father is in jail? You must be proud of yourself!"
Shin Ji was emotional as she had several mental illnesses. What triggered her the most was everything about Jun Seo. How could she let her beloved man be taken by the police? According to her, anyone that came between her and Jun Seo was a bad person.
She threw all of the things on her dresser while crying. She also tried to throw them to Y/N. "Go away! Go away now! I don't have a daughter like you. You are not my daughter anymore! I never gave birth to a daughter like you! Are you proud of yourself that you put your own father to jail? You are inhuman!"
The butler asked the maids to stop Shin Ji. He was worried about Y/N's safety. "Miss, you can wait until Madame gets better. Don't worry, we will take good care of her."
Y/N could only nod. "Sorry for the inconvenience. I will call the doctor to check on her."
"Go away! I don't want a hypocrite like you around me! You are ungrateful!" Shin Ji's mental state worsened.
Y/N went to her car and called the Song family's doctor. Then she started her car and put her hands on the steering wheel, but she could feel the tears stinging the edges of her eyes. She put her head on the steering wheel, crying.
Shin Ji's words were sharp, piercing to her heart. Y/N knew, as long as Y/N didn't let Jun Seo go, in this lifetime, Shin Ji would never forgive her. But she still hoped that only for once, Shin Ji could understand her and be on her side.
But it was obvious that Shin Ji didn't, she even chose to not regard her as a daughter anymore. Their relationship was really shallow.
When she was a little kid, she always watched how hard life was for Shin Ji. She would play the piano until her fingers hurt, she also teached Y/N to play everyday. But Y/N could never master it. She would call her "useless."
Now, she said that she never had a child like her. Even if she tried her best, there would never be a place for her in Shin Ji's heart.
Y/N raised her head and wiped her tears as her phone rang. She checked her phone and it was Jimin. "Why did you go there?"
"My Ma fainted."
"Okay, and?" Jimin asked, clearly annoyed that she went there by herself. "Are you crying?"
"Hm." Y/N answered simply.
"She's not worth it, Y/N. Come to my office, I will treat the wound in your heart."
"No need, it will pass."
"How can you refuse to get treated? It will recover faster. I will wait for you in my office." Jimin said. "Oh right, could you perhaps also bring me lunch?"
"How come you haven't had lunch yet?" Y/N's attention was completely shifted.
"I just finished a meeting." Jimin let out a frustrated huff.
"Okay, just wait for me. I will buy you something to eat."
"Thank you, wife." Jimin smiled on the phone. "Remember, don't go there by yourself next time. It's not safe." He thought about Shin Ji's action last year. She used the stick to hit Y/N. Even now, he still has lingering fear about it.
Jimin thought that Shin Ji probably had a mental outbreak now because of Jun Seo. She would definitely blamed Y/N. He was afraid that she might do something crazy to her.
"Okay." Y/N answered and hung up the phone.
Even though Jimin didn't say what he wanted to eat, Y/N knew that Jimin was a very picky man. If she bought random food and it didn't suit his taste, he wouldn't eat it. If she cooked the food, Jimin would eat it no matter what. But it wasn't efficient. So she went to his favorite restaurant and ordered food that he frequently ordered. Then she drove her car to the Park company.
Y/N took the private elevator to his office but she didn't expect that Jimin would welcome her by hugging her as soon as she entered. Luckily she was used to it, otherwise she would have been shocked and accidentally dropped the food.
Jimin carried her and placed her on his desk. He caged her between his arms and lowered her head to kiss her.
Y/N stopped him and put her hands on his chest. "Eat your food."
"The only thing I want to eat is you." Jimin grabbed both of her hands and gripped them against the table. Y/N blushed again when he kissed the blush straight off her lips.
"We shouldn't fool around here." She turned her gaze around. "Tonight when we're home, alright?"
Jimin shook his head, clearly didn't care about it. "No, I want to eat now."
"Are you crazy? This is the office!"
At this moment, she started doubting his true intention of inviting her here. He knew exactly that she would come over when she knew he hadn't eaten his lunch yet. He was lucky that she loved him, this man was really wicked!
"So?" Jimin did not seem fazed in the least. "You never try it in my office, right? Let's give it a try. It will be fun!"
Y/N placed her hands against his chest again. She narrowed her eyes. "How can you know it will be fun? Who have you tried it with?"
"I've never tried it so I want to try it with you." Both of his hands grasped her chin then he greedily kissed her.
Y/N felt somewhat insecure so she shoved him. "The door is unlocked."
He leaned closer to her. "I've locked it."
She then gazed and pointed at the big windows. "You haven't closed the windows."
Jimin followed her gaze. "Those windows face the Han River and this is the top floor. Nobody can see us."
Y/N was getting annoyed by this man. "Park Jimin, let's do it later tonight, alright?" She was nervous. Even if the door was locked, what if someone unlocked it and barged in? She would definitely not be able to face anyone in the future.
