•|Next Day|•

[ Author P.O.V ]

It was pass 10:30am already and here was srija walking to the company, you must be wondering why? So this morning she again got up late and hurried to the company

But midway her car stopped as there was no fuel, she didn't even get a bus or cab there so she decided to walked all her way here

Srija wasn't alone tho, jungkook was also walking with her as he was following her since morning. He even left his car on the road, anyways jungkook was talking continuously which srija found very annoying

She wanted to reach the office quickly as she wanted to get rid of him as soon as possible but suddenly someone came and snatched srija's purse from her hand

"So after beating him I came back to the-" Before jungkook could complete srija cut him off and spoke

"Yah you bastard! Give me my purse back!!" Srija yelled loudly as she ran behind the robber in full speed while seeing this jungkook stopped walking and blinked in confused but then he widen his eyes in shock

"Wait srija! I am coming!" Jungkook said as he also ram behind them

The robber was running here and there trying to make srija confused and get rid of her but she wasn't the type of person to do that so she kept running behind him

"Yah! Some right there you bastard!!" Srija yelled as the robber looked back and increased his speed, seeing this srija did the same and she catch up with him

Srija grabbed the robber by his hair and pulled him back, then she tangled her legs with his making him fall on the ground as she slapped him across his face

"What did you think I will let you off that easily? You dared to steal my purse so pay the price now!" Srija said as she punched the robber across his ugly face, making his nose bleed while jungkook came there running

"Srija! I am here! Where is that!......robber?" Jungkook said in shock as he saw srija beating the shit out of that robber who was literally begging her

"Looks like my help wasn't needed here, maybe I shouldn't have ran all the way" Jungkook said as he gulped in fear seeing srija

"Next time think a thousand times robbing anyone, also if next time I see you I will make sure you end up in the hospital" Srija said fixing her wrist as she stood up and took her purse from that robber who was almost unconscious. Srija turned back and saw jungkook staring at her with his mouth open in shock

"Close your mouth or else flies will get inside and stop staring at me like that" Srija said with a straight face as jungkook snapped back and closed his mouth

"Oh~ I didn't knew you cared so much about me~" Jungkook said with as he tugged on srija's arm

"No, I'd be happy if you can stay away from me even if it means by going to the hospital" Srija said as jungkook just chuckled

"I will pretend I didn't hear you" Jungkook said with a smile as srija rolled her eyes

"Whatever" Srija said as she walked away and jungkook followed her behind

•|At Y/n's Office|•

About 30 mins later srija reached the office and finally got rid of jungkook, after doing some paper work she took a file and when to y/n's office but the moment she entered she saw jhope sitting on the chair with his legs on the table and he was swinging

"I didn't see it wrong right? Why is y/n sitting like that with her legs on the table? She never did that before so why now?....this feels so strange and weird, it's kinda suspicious too.......whatever maybe she's just tired"

Srija thought with her brows frowned and seeing her jhope instantly put down his legs, srija came to him and gave him a file as she spoke

"Y/n, today you have an appointment with Mr. Han who is our new investor and the ceo of top 6 company at a restaurant so......do you wanna go there? Or should I go?.." Srija said as jhope just blinked and stared at her blankly

"Oh no, what should I do now? Usually y/n takes this decision but she's isn't here, she went home to bring my phone.....no I have to think quickly because I take too much time srija might be suspicious but I don't what to do at all! Whatever I will just say I will go!" Jhope thought

"Sure, no problem" Jhope said as srija nodded and opened the file

"Ok the meeting is 45 mins later so check this file and be ready, if you need me just ask sumin to call me" Srija said with a serious tone as jhope nodded and she went out of the office. Jhope took a breath of relief but then he got anxious

"What should I do now? If I call y/n and tell her this she will obviously say not to go but if I don't go, srija will be very suspicious which might end up getting both her and me killed. I can't wait for y/n as our home is more than 1 hour far so it will take her time to come back

The only option now is to go alone without telling y/n, it's not like I can't say anything I know a bit of business. Okay I will check this file and get going, don't worry Hoseok you can do it! Fighting!" Jhope thought as he opened the file and started reading it

•|At The Restaurant|•

Jhope arrived at the restaurant in 20 mins as it was not that far from the company and he had a car, he came inside and saw a man stood up seeing him so jhope understood it was Mr. Han and went to him

"Hello Mr. Han, I am Yang Y/n the ceo. Nice to meet you" Jhope said formally introducing himself as y/n

"Hello Ms. Yang, I am Han Moonhyuk. The ceo of Han Enterprises and nice to meet you too" Mr. Han said as he raised his hand forward and shook hands with jhope

"Btw Ms. Yang, you look quite beautiful today" Mr. Han said with a smile as he sat down, jhope did the same and awkwardly laughed hearing the sudden compliment

"Thanks for the compliment, you look great too. Anyways let's start the meeting" Jhope said awkwardly as the discussion between them started

But during the that period Mr. Han tried to touch jhope inappropriately, at first jhope didn't notice it but when he did he started feeling very uncomfortable

Even though it wasn't his body but from the start he felt uncomfortable just by seeing Mr. Han but still he kept quiet and beared all of that as Mr. Han was an investor of y/n's company

Now because jhope didn't say anything about it Mr. Han was about to touch his thigh but the next moment someone grabbed his hand and twisted it back

"You bastard! How dare you try to touch her inappropriately?!" Y/n said angrily as jhope widen his eyes in shock seeing her

"What the fuck?! Who are you?! Leave my hand!" Mr. Han yelled as he tried to free his hand but y/n twisted it more and grabbed his hair tightly

"Sorry but I can't do that, you dared to touch what's mine so how can I leave you?" Y/n said in a low tone while glaring at Mr. Han and when jhope heard the word "mine" he felt butterflies in his stomach

"Wait a second....did y/n just call me hers? Did she mean to say I belong to her?....but why? Why would she say that?....it's not like I am her real boyfriend.....so why did she say that?" Jhope thought as his cheeks turned pink but the next moment he heard a scream and snapped out of his thoughts

He saw that Mr. Han was on the floor and y/n was beating the shit out of him while literally everyone present there was staring at them, jhope instantly stood up as y/n was about to choke Mr. Han

"No y/n, stop! Don't do that! Let him go!" Jhope said holding y/n's arms to stop her but she pushed his hand

"Leave me! Since this mf tried to touch you I won't let him live anymore!" Y/n said in rage as she was about to go to Mr. Han but jhope held her back by grabbing her waist

"Y/n just stop already, everyone is looking at us and already that guy is half dead. Let him go!" Jhope said as y/n tried to free herself but he wasn't letting go so she sighed heavily

"Ok ok fine, I will let him go but leave me. I have something to say" Y/n said as jhope shook his head in no

"No way! I know you are gonna beat him again!" Jhope said as y/n grabbed his hand and pushed them back

"I won't, I promise" Y/n said as she went to Mr. Han and bent down to his level

"I am letting you go coz everyone's watching but don't worry, I will make you pay the price for your action tenfold so be ready to suffer" Y/n said as she death glared at him and then grabbed jhope's hand as they went out of the restaurant

•|Outside The Restaurant|•

"Y/n please let go of my hand, it's hurting" Jhope said as they came out of the restaurant and y/n pinned him again the car in anger

"I told you to stay at the office! Not only did you came here alone but you didn't even bother to inform me about it!! Do you have any fuckin idea how worried and anxious I was about you?!!" Y/n yelled in rage at jhope who flinched as y/n never spoke to him this way

"Does my opinion don't matter to you or what?! Why are you always so stubborn?! You never listen to me! What if something happened to you?! What will I do then?! Tell me!" Y/n yelled again as jhope just kept silent which made y/n even more furious

"Why are you so silent now?! When you argue with me you have a voice but there when that mf was harrassing you, you don't! Why did you tolerate it when you were clearly uncomfortable?! Why didn't you say anything?! WHY JHOPE?! ANSWER ME!!-" Before y/n could complete jhope hugged her tightly as she slightly widen her eyes

"I am sorry y/n....I know you would be worried but I didn't tell you coz I already told srija I was going and if I didn't she would be suspicious.......and at the restaurant I didn't say anything because he was your investor.......I know I did wrong and because of me you are so angry but still...... please forgive me....I am very sorry.....y/n" Jhope said as he buried his head in y/n's shoulder, while y/n blinked and hugged him back

"Fine, I will forgive you just this once" Y/n said as jhope broke the hug and gave her a smile

"Ok I will remember that your majesty~" Jhope said dramatically as he bowed to y/n at which she rolled her eyes

"Whatever let's go back to the office" Y/n said as jhope nodded and turned around, y/n noticed there was a blood stain [it was jhope's third day] on the skirt

"Wait, turn around" Y/n said as jhope turned back with a confused expression on his face, y/n took off her jacket and wrapped it around his waist as jhope again felt those butterflies

"Let's go now, when we will reach the office I will change your skirt" Y/n said as she got inside the car and so did jhope, y/n started the car and they drove away from there
