*****

The next day, y/n woke up and did her daily routine. She dressed up professionally, tied her hair up. She stared herself in the mirror. Jungkook's apology played in her mind over and over.

She dreamed of him saying those words to her. She wished that he would call her baby one more time. She wanted be in his warm embrace, his sweet words about her, his love for her...but, when he did all those yesterday, she couldn't feel anything. For a moment she thought if she could ever love Jungkook back again?

She closed her eyes and recollected about her love life. She then remembered how he protected her in the club when no else could save her from the traumas she experienced. She is an open book for Jungkook, he could literally say what is going on her mind. She remembered about the past memories of her with Jungkook, how he was with her all the time, how his presence gave her all the strength to tolerate the abuse she received.

Tears discharged down her face but she smiled. She smiled because she felt it, she felt her heart growing once again. The heart she had closed once with ice started to melt.

With all these thoughts she descended downstairs, as she reached downstairs, she stopped dead on tracks. Jungkook's guards were dragging Tzuyu out of the house. She was begging him to listen to her.

"tell me the fucking truth, then!" he yelled making both of them flinch. The guards halted as his deep voice reverberated throughout the room. Tzuyu sniffed. "it was Lisa" she said crying. "it was her fault. She told me to do it even if I didn't want to" she sobbed.

Jungkook didn't show any sort of emotion. His cold demeanour sent shivers down her spine. y/n hated it; this is not her Jungkook. She hated it when she couldn't recognise him.

He took predating steps towards Tzuyu "why did you lie about your pregnancy? Why did you drug me? Not once but twice? And that to you made me hurt her? Why did you make me believe that we had sex?" he confronted her with questions that tortured him for days.

He felt guilty when he woke up that morning. The thought that he slept with another woman while he has married to another woman made him to loathe himself. How can he punish someone for cheating when he himself is doing the same thing?

Listening to his words y/n was taken aback. Her mind was still getting over the trauma she received last few weeks. All this so confusing and torturing for her. Tzuyu wiped her tears " Lisa had called me and told me about your wedding, I was heartbroken. I loved you" she sobbed and pulled her arms out of the guards grip" when I came here and the way you let me her, I thought I still had a chance with you but then I slowly noticed the way you looked at her and that was when I realized that, you never looked at me that way" more tells poured down her face.

"there was love, adoration, and respect in your eyes for her and only her" she wiped her eyes, but tears flowed more." I got jealous and told Lisa about it. She gave me drug and told me to have sex with you " but chuckled sadly." But even then, you didn't have sex with me. You weren't in your senses but still you showed me your wedding ring indicating that you are married. Even the other day when you hurted her badly I saw the pain in your eyes for her. That was when I lost it. I couldn't make you love me even when you are unconscious. So , I lied and I made you think I was pregnant so that you could stay with me. I love you so much. IS THAT A CRIME?" she yelled the last part weeping hysterically.

y/n felt bad for Tzuyu. She knew what Tzuyu was felling, she was familiar with that feeling. The feeling when you love someone and the person doesn't love you back, you tend to do anything for their love. The things we do for our love.

Jungkook exhaled sharply giving an impression that he doesn't care" you hurt someone that belongs to me. Do you what happens what happens to the people who mess with me?" he asked, her crying and pleading didn't matter to him. He was ruthless man and only cared for a few people in this world.

She shook her head." That was all Lisa. Yes, I made fun of y/n but that was nothing compared to Lisa's action. I only helped her because she threatened me." She explained.

"do you take me for a fool? You thought that I wouldn't figure it out myself? I am going to ruin you when I am done with you. I'll destroy Lisa and make her disappear from this world" he gripped her arm harshly. She yelped as his fingernails dug into her arms.

"JUNGKOOK!" y/n yelled from behind seeing the horror scene Infront of her. She cannot stand still when Jungkook is hurting someone. He let of her arms and went to y/n.

The corner of his lips tugs up. "you called me Jungkook" he said looking happy. "you are hurting her" y/n said.

Keeping his eyes on y/n he asked the guards to take Tzuyu away from them." I am sorry you had to see that" he smiled taking her hand in his.

"did you have breakfast?" he asked and she shook her head." Come on" he dragged her towards the dining table. She looked around the breakfast table and found all her favourites. She sat down silently and observed him serving her, he looked happy.

"we have to be at the airport in two hours" he informed while eating his breakfast.

Her eyebrows snapped together" airport?"

"yeah, I need to go somewhere for business and you should come with me" he told her.

After they were done with breakfast, Jungkook kissed her on the cheeks and told her he'll back in half an hour. She sat there stunned. It was too good to be true. This is the cold hearted jeon Jungkook. He doesn't care about anyone or love.

She remembered every time he had hurt her. She remembered every single hurtful word he said. She remembered every single action he said. Every time he made her to feel worthless, everything he made her to be in dark. She shook her head to get rid of all these thoughts.

They got to the airport where Jungkook's private jet was waiting for them. y/n was asleep through half of the journey. He tried to make conversations with y/n but she just answered him with her one-word answer. Soon they reached the destination, Jungkook told the driver to stop and stepped out of the car. The car door from her side opened and Jungkook bent down." Come on"

y/n stepped out and the place seemed too familiar for her. The building in front made her eyes go wide. She looked up and saw her company's name shining even though its broad day. She covered her mouth with her hand as she looked towards Jungkook. Tears brimmed in her eyes as she realised they were in new York in front of her company.

She ran towards Jungkook and hugged him tightly." Thank you, thank you so much" he hugged her back patting her back. "so, Mrs jeon aren't you going to show me around?" he asked pulling back from the hug and she nodded shyly.

Walking into the entrance she saw the staff looking at her wide eyes. Soon a circle was formed around her. All the staff were asking about all the things that were going In her life.

"guys, first I want you meet someone" she announced. Everyone fell silent looking at her eager eyes." Everyone, meet my husband, jeon Jungkook"

"you got married?"

"how?"

"when?"

"what?"

"where"

"I'll see you all later" she smiled and dragged Jungkook to the elevator.

When they were both in elevator, Jungkook was the first one to break the silence first. "they all love you"

"yes" she said with a smile plastered on her lips. She reached the floor where Eunwoo's and her office was. Joy's cabin was empty. She heaved a sigh and walked into Eunwoo's office. She burst open the door making eunwoo jump.

"y/n?"

"Eunwoo"

She ran towards him and he picked her up in his arms embracing her tightly." Oh my god I missed you so much. Everything was difficult without you here" he mumbled in her hair. She laughed. He looked over from y/n's shoulder and saw Jungkook.

"JEON JUNGKOOK!" he said baffled as to why he was here." Why are you here?"

"well, I wouldn't be here. If it wasn't for him" y/n mumbled. She gave Jungkook a grateful look.

"you never would have away from here if it wasn't him" Eunwoo snapped back.

"Eunwoo!" y/n scolded.

"it's okay I deserve it" Jungkook said.

At last, she unlocked her office and walked inside with Jungkook following behind her.

He hugged her from behind and kissed her hair." I am proud to be your husband" he whispered.

y/n stiffened. Why was acting like they were a perfect couple? She turned to him and looked at him. Without saying she pulled away.

He took a deep breath disappointedly . of course, after everything he can't expect things to go back to the way they were before. He was willing to forget everything she has done to him. But he wasn't sure if she could forgive him. A little trip to new York doesn't change anything.

He strolled around her office. He could clearly say that all the interiors were your designs. He saw pictures hanging on the wall . he walked closer to pictures and examined it, few were of her childhood, with her parents, with her friends of New York and lastly was a picture of him and her. The pictures of the past when they were in love.

His lips parted, his body stiffened, his heart started pounding out of his chest, his pupils dilated. Why was she having a picture of him in her office? Didn't say that he was just a toy for her and she loved someone else? This is so confusing.

"Jungkook" she whispered.

"why do you have our picture in your office?" he asked with a frown, confusion written all his face. "you broke up with me claiming that you love someone lese and you still have all our pictures?" he wasn't angry, but he was confused.

y/n bit on her lower lip trying to think of an excuse. How can she that she never loved someone else when her heart beats only for Jungkook. How can she forget that nights she cried saying all those hurtful words to him?

"do you trust me?" he asked softly.

"yes" she said directly looking in to his eyes.

"then tell me the truth..."

She wanted to tell the truth. She didn't know why she was hesitating so much. It was easy to say the events that happened in her life to Irene but to him she was scared that he will hate her.

She knew that he is still in her mind. She was scared that he would harm Jungkook. She was scared if she tells Jungkook the truth if he would leave her?

Someone wiped her tears; she didn't realize that she was crying. He signed." Its okay if you don't want to tell. I can wait until you are ready to tell me but I deserve to know it baby, you can't keep me in the dark, I can't lose you again not after I got you back." He whispered.

"you are willing to forgive me even after everything" tears flowed down her cheeks." After all the things I said to you before leaving" she whispered.

He smiled." Having you here now makes everything happened between us, was for good. I don't remember why I was so hung up on that stuff. I don't care about that anymore, baby. Whatever you said or did I don't care anymore. I know there was a reason behind all your doings. I know one day you yourself will disclose the untold truth" he caged her face with his hands " but I want you to know that I will always be there for you" he connected their forehead. " I promise".

"you want me to forgive you?" she asked.

"yes" he said showing all his determination for wanting her forgiveness.

"but, how can i? you have changed Jungkook, you are not the person I loved, you hurt me so much that I cannot be healed in any way. I broke your heart, I don't deserve your forgiveness" she sobbed.

" I am sorry baby..." he whispered.

"you think your sorry can fix the heart that you broke me? Every time you slut shamed me, every time you hurted me , humiliated me and you made me as your sex toy"

"I wont do this anymore baby. I won't. I promise to protect you respect you . please give me a chance. I'll spend my whole life making up to you. All I am asking is for little time...."

"I don't know Jungkook" she shook her head. She glanced at the ground." I don't think we can fix what has already happened but I 'll give you a chance".

He held her hands and dropped to his knees." I promise you; I'll spend my whole life making it up to you. I'm so sorry" he sobbed.

after calming down he sat on their sofa and started speaking." it all started two months of the your departure"

flashback~

"where is it?" he shouted running a hand through his messy hair.

His mother came running behind him as turned his room upside down looking for something." where did you put it?" he shouted at his mother making her flinch.

"kookie-ah~ its not good for you" she cried helplessly.

"no, i need it! i decide what i need in my life" he frustratedly pulled on his hair.

he slapped his face multiple times. his mother held his hands to stop him from hurting himself.

" i will kill myself. please i Can't live without it" he cried hugging his mother. " please, mom, just this last time. i promise then i'll stop " he sobbed like a child.

"no, it'll kill you"

he suddenly jerked her away. " where did you hide it?"

"i flushed them in the toilet"

his bloodshot eyes grew wide as he glared at his mother. the muscles of his jaw twitched. he clenched his fists." YOU DID WHAT?" he held her shoulders and shook her violently.

"why ?" he shook her roughly and pushed her to the wall. Mr. jeon heard his wife scream along with Jungkook shouting. he ran to his room only to find him physically hurting his wife. rage took over Mr. jeon and he charged at his son landing a brutal punch on his jaw.

Jungkook dropped on the floor groaning in pain. Mr. jeon pulled his wife into his embrace. Jungkook laying there passed out. all the drugs took over his mind, drove his body to unconscionable acts of depravity, doing anything to attain his next hit. he lost himself that night.

time skip~

he woke up in a hospital a month later, he didn't remember anything. all he remembered was y/n 's face, all their memories. but soon he heard his mom's voice.

" honey, call Mr. Kim and ask him about his daughter's whereabouts. my son is dying because of her, do something" Mrs. jeon cried pulling her husband's shirt.

"let him die then" her husband answered brokenly.

"no! don't you dare! i will kill myself before i let anything happen to my son!"

"will he do same for you?" Mr. jeon questioned." your son is destroying himself for a girl. did he ever even for a second thought about us?" he sniffled." all he cares about is that girl, who tossed him aside like a piece of garbage. his parents... his family means nothing to him"

tears welled up in Jungkook's eyes hearing his parents conversation. that was the time he decided that he won't cry over Kim y/n anymore. he won't hurt the people who cared for him for a bitch that never cared. he vowed to forget all her and make his wrongs right for the sake of his parents.

but he wished for one last chance for revenge. he wanted to destroy her the way she destroyed him.

flashback ends~

Someone harshly barged in breaking there thoughtful moment. Jungkook wiped his tears and stood up. y/n wiped her tears.

"y/n, my baby girl" Irene yelled and ran to hug her.

"Irene!" y/n opened her arms for her.

" Eunwoo called me and I came as fast as I can"

" I missed you so much" y/n whispered hugging her tightly.

" I missed you too...WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE " she sneered as her eyes landed on Jungkook.

"I am here with my wife"

"y/n, I called you million times, at first he told never contact you again, then he turned your phone off. We came all way to Korea only to be kicked out. What kind to bastard does that?" she said.

" stop calling me bastard, don't forget she is here only because of me. Don't mess with me, it will be too bad for you" Jungkook threatened.

"oh! Are you threatening me? I am scared, boy" she said in a baby voice.

"I am warning you, unexceptional model" he said with pride and arrogance.

"Jungkook, Irene, stop!" y/n yelled." What are you guys? Five!"

Irene rolled her eyes and gave Jungkook a tight - lipped smile." When y/n described you, I respected you. She put your before anything in her life, even her life. But, sadly you don't even it. Did you even know that she was abused?"

" Irene no!" y/n said with wide eyes.

"no,y/n, this isn't fair. He punished you for something you haven't done and he finally knows the truth. He-" y/n covered her mouth with her hand from saying anything further. y/n shook her head telling her that it isn't the case.

Jungkook frowned." What do you mean? Baby , what is she talking about?" he said walking towards y/n.

"wait, you don't know?" Irene asked Jungkook.

"know what?" he asked little frustrated.

"nothing!" y/n gave Irene a warning look.

" you don't know then why are you here? And-" she looked at y/n and then at Jungkook then again towards y/n and then she realized. "oh, I have few works to do so I am going bye" she quickly pecked y/n's cheek and rushed out.

Jungkook was just staring at y/n" what was she talking about?" he inquired.

" its long story and its complicated" she mumbled.

" I have time"

" I will tell you some other time but not right now, please" she looked away.

"okay"

y/n showed Jungkook around New York. She explained everything about new York. From street food to the multi-national companies. Even though he had been here for business many times , he wanted to hear from her.

After touring around all day, she took him to her favourite restaurant. They had a romantic candle light dinner. After dinner, y/n suggested that they ditch the car and walk to her penthouse. They slowly walked. It felt nice, natural and peaceful. Without saying another word, they both walked in the city lights.

Time skip~

They were back from their tiny new York trip. y/n didn't want to come back but she had to. Someone knocked on the door while she was doing her hair.

"come in" Jungkook came near her standing behind her in the mirror. Their connected in the mirror and a small smile grew on their face.

"good morning" she said finally putting the last bobby pins.

"morning" he murmured and started taking out her pins one by one.

"stop" she said as he took out another pin.

"you know its very difficult to make this" she mumbled annoyed, he smirked and took out another.

"that a lot of pins" he grumbled.

He took out the last pin and her beautiful hair fell on her back. " you cand do whatever you want. You don't have to do all this now" he said and she nodded with a small smile. " I also wanted to give you this" he said and gave her an envelope.

She took the envelope and opened it. She pulled the paper.

'DIVORCE PAPERS'

Her head shot up as she stared at Jungkook. " is this real?" she asked, gulping the lump that formed in her throat.

He smiled. " I meant it when I said I'm sorry and I don't want you to feel burdened by this marriage. I want you to spend your life with me only if you want to. Not because your father forced you. This is the first step of earning your forgiveness"

Her eyes teared up as she said" thank you, Jungkook"

He nodded." Of course but can we act like loving couple for tonight. Just for tonight. There's a party your father invited us to. After that, I promise, I won't ask for anything"

"okay" she said still trying to absorb the fact Jungkook is willing her to let go. She felt better emotionally and physically. Her mind was at peace. At this moment she couldn't ask for more.

"ah, I have another thing for you" Jungkook said walking out of the room.

He came back inside her room holding a gift box. She furrowed her eyebrows." What's this?"

"open it"

She unwrapped the box and opened it to see all her belongings. Her cell phone, her passport, her identity card , her laptop.

" you can work online if you want" he said.

She smiled at remark and nodded.

Time skip~

She got ready for the party in a long black dress with a side slit. She picked up the divorce papers and smiled.

Jungkook came into her room all dressed up in a black tuxedo. "hey" he said and her head turned in his direction. He looked handsome all dressed up.

"you look stunning" he said , stunned.

" thank you" she blushed.

He nodded and turned to leave ." I'm waiting for you downstairs"

She shook her head and put the divorce papers back on the nightstand. She descended the stairs and saw Jungkook waiting for her.

They walked out and Jungkook opened the car door for her. Philip drove them to her father's mansion. Jungkook was feeling like his heart is ripped out. He was lost In thoughts, the whole ride was silent, he didn't utter an word. He was numb. He kept thinking how she was happy when she received divorce papers. When she moved out of his life it wasn't her fault but its entirely his. He ruined everything because he was arrogant and proud.

The car door opened and Jungkook came back to reality.

The party was grand and extravagant as all Kim's parties were. Mr. Kim was greeting all his guest but when his eyes fell on Jungkook and his daughter . he was rooted to his spot completely stunned.

Jungkook was crouched down on the ground. He was disentangling y/n's dress from her heels. While her hand rested on his back for balance. Jungkook fixed the tail of her dress and stood up offering her his elbow. She hooked up her arm and entered where Mr. Kim was standing.

"Mr. Kim" Jungkook said his voice cold and distant.

They both greeted him. Jungkook shook hands with him.

He pulled y/n in his embrace." You look beautiful like your mother" he whispers in her ear making her heart weep in joy.

Jungkook was busy discussing business. y/n was feeling bored. Soon she heard a unpleasant voice.

"Kim y/n" Lisa raised an eyebrow at both pf them.

"yes, lalisa manoban?" she questioned in a bored manner.

Lisa scoffed." Jungkook put a leash on her" she whispers yelled.

Jungkook glared at her with resentment." Talk to my wife with respect, Lisa"

" you can drop the act know, no one is here now" she smiled evilly.

Jungkook smiled. "I am so sorry you had to deal with this creature" he taunted looking at y/n lovingly.

"wait, what is going on here?" Lisa asked baffled." This cannot be happening. Aren't you forgetting something Kim y/n?" she said sarcastically.

"no, I am not " y/n gave her a tight smile. Lisa stomped away from them while Lisa glared at her.

Jungkook knew y/n was keeping something in secret. He was hurt that she didn't trust him enough to let him know what she is hiding. y/n noticed Jungkook's off expression. She knew she was hurting him by keeping things away from him. She wasn't brave enough to face her fears.

Jungkook need closure, she had hurt him too much in their stupid game.

"y/n, I would like you to meet someone" jiwon smiled graciously towards both of them. y/n frowned thinking what trick she gas up her sleeve now. Jungkook held her hand telling her that he is here and don't need to worry.

Jungkook and y/n followed jiwon and she halted dead on her tracks, her breathing got erratic and the ground shifted below her feet when her eyes fell on him.
