《The Retribution Contract》34.

Flashlights. Microphones. People dressed in a formal attire. They all were there. The entire room was filled up with questions and desperation for those to be answered. The confused murmurings ceased as soon as the man clad in a crisp suit walked in. He took his place at the huge table placed at the centre of the stage and gestured the people to take their seats as well.
"Warm greetings to all the reporters present here today. I'm so thankful to you for coming at such an urgent notice. Now you all can start with your questions and I will be obliged to answer them." The man said and looked up ahead.
"Mr. Kim the painkiller your company lauched with AD Corp. is almost killing people. What do you have to say about that?"
Han-Gyoel sighed in pure sorrow. A perfect act that made the people around him suddenly feel bad for the old man. "I'm extremely sorry for whatever is happening recently. It's all my fault. It's my fault for trusting a greedy company like AD Corp. My company provided them with the raw materials and gave them all the support but they were desperate for money. Their company supplied the medicine in the market before testing it. They've also made a huge amount of profit from that medicine. It was my mistake for trusting people who put money before lives and I'm ready to pay for it. I've also filed a case against them to make everything right. So don't worry, I'll soon solve this problem."
"Mr. Kim how did you not know that the medicine was not tested? You are their partner so it's legit for you to know about the progress of your deals."
"Kim Corporation is new to the pharma world. This was the reason why we decided to work with AD Corp. Their biggest and most successful branch is the pharmaceutical department. According to the deal that we had signed, it was made sure that the pharmacists would be given all the rights and they wouldn't be questioned regarding anything. This was a clause they had put forward and we being good partners didn't question them. The lead for the deal was with AD Corp. and we were just mere supporters. I also have the deal papers that I'll be presenting in the court." Han-Gyoel explained. His face showing fake concern and sorrow.

"Mr. Kim is there anything else you would like to say about this matter?"
"I made a mistake by trusting them but I'll make it right. Everyone who suffered from the medicine will be given a compensation from my company. I sincerely apologize for my mistake and I assure you that the people at fault will be given the right punishment soon." With this he stood up and bowed once before exiting the stage.
Coming out into the corridor of the building he smirked. "Seojun get the work done before Christmas. I have to give someone a very beautiful present." He looked at his secretary and winked before leaving for his chamber. Seojun just kept standing there with his blood shot eyes. He felt numb because whatever he was about to do was definitely going to ruin many lives.
Sitting on the big window seating, Taehyung looked at the sky deep in his thoughts. His little baby was sleeping peacefully giving him some time to think about other things as well. "Tae what should we do now? We start doing one thing and a problem comes out of nowhere." Ji-ung said in frustration.
"Hyung I really don't know how to bring Kook out of this situation. Da..Mr. Kim just spoke so much at the live conference and he even has a plan ready. I can't even threaten him with the company in this matter because Jungkook wants to keep his identity as the CEO hidden from him. Mr. Kim would get suspicious if I get involved in this matter." Taehyung sighed. Things were getting messed up and he was out of answers for the problems arising recently.
"Why does he even want to keep his identity hidden? I don't understand the point." Ji-ung questioned. "Hyung business is Jungkook's dream. He loves doing that ever since he was in university. He just doesn't want his company to get involved in the mafia sh*t and his rivalry with Mr. Kim. He is just trying to protect his passion and dream." Taehyung explained.

Ji-ung scoffed hearing him. "But he started with his revenge right. You know it too. He kept his identity hidden and then signed a deal with Han-Gyoel knowing fully well that he is a clever and cruel man. For what Tae? For his revenge obviously. He might have left that thought now that you both are together but he did start off with his stupid plans of revenge. Didn't he? Now he might have to compromise on his dreams because he was not able to put a leash on his hatred and anger."
Taehyung looked away from his worked up cousin. He knew that the other was right but he couldn't just sit and watch his husband's company drowning due to some false charges. He was determined to save the Jeon's company this time. Something he couldn't do two years ago.
Taking in a deep breath he looked right into his cousin's eyes and said "Hyung seven days later I'll legally become the owner of Kim Corporation. I want you to arrange a meeting of the board directors for 30th December. I'll strip Mr. Kim from all his powers for sure. And as far as this problem is concerned we have to take some help from Seojun hyung. Hopefully he'll help us." Ji-ung nodded understanding his point. "I'll arrange the meeting secretly but are you sure Seojun hyung will help us?" He asked skeptically.
"I think he will this time. I'm not sure but I have to try." Saying this the petite boy quickly took his phone out and texted the said person with the hope of getting a good result from his efforts.
All he could do now was to wait a little and pray for the best.

Queer Tales From A Street Nominally Associated With Your Reality
The street is not from your world, and yet it's attached, clinging like a shadowy limpet to the edge of your London, your city skyline stabbing into it from above. Or well that's what we tell ourselves, no one who lives here really knows. We are after all just regular folk displaced from our original realities. Just a bunch of folks with queer tales from a street nominally associated with your reality. What to expect: - A series of interlinked short stories gradually unpacking the lives, complications and mysteries associated with those who live in the street - A weird pseudo-British setting where physics works inconsistently, and houses move position regularly - Stories filled with LGBTQ+ characters, and in particular ones on the trans/nonbinary spectrum - Potentially iffy grammar, I'm new to publishing my work online, so whilst I am checking things before posting it’s a near certainty that some things will slip through - A schedule of one chapter every two weeks.
