《The Retribution Contract》36.
Advertisement
Chairs were tumbled upside down. Files scattered around the office floor as if a storm had blown them away from the cabinets. There were unknown people going through the entire office searching for something. This is what Jungkook encountered when he entered AD Corp.
"What the hell is happening here?" Jungkook shouted gaining the attention of the men present inside. Jackson and his hyungs were standing just behind him with the same pissed off expressions. "Mr. Jackson Wang I am so glad that you finally decided to come here. I'm dissapointed though. Despite of knowing that today there was suppose to be a police inspection you didn't come on time. Not just that but there are no files related to the deal or manufacture of the painkiller here. What is that suppose to mean Mr. Wang?" One of the police officers, who was supposedly the head of the team said.
"Police inspection? There is no police inspection today officer but a trial in the court at noon." Jackson exclaimed. The police officer scoffed hearing him. "We'll see about that. For now hand over that bag to us. We have to check something." Saying this he went towards them and snatched away the bag from Jackson's hand. None of them questioned him though because they were confident about their documents.
The police officer took out the files from the bag and gestured his team mates to help him. Soon they started checking and looking for the information they desired. Ten minutes later the leader of the team turned to Jungkook and the others and jingled the handcuffs infront of his face. "Mr. Wang after going through these files we have to take you for interrogation. The court has already given us permission for that."
"You can't do that. Not when the files don't have any proof against the company." Jungkook intervened. "See Mr. Jeon don't interfere in your friend's matter. Otherwise I'd be forced to take you into custody as well." The police officer spoke looking into his eyes strictly.

"Don't worry Kook. I'll go with them. It's just an interrogation." Jackson assured him and then followed behind the officers who left the office with all the files and documents. Jungkook kicked a fallen chair in frustration. "They took him before the trial hyung. I hope there would be no problem in the court after this." He said and pushed back the hair falling on his forehead.
"Don't worry Jeon. There's no trial today. It was a fake information I supplied to you." The sudden voice forced them all to look towards the entrance. Their faces morphed into a confused expression when they saw Han-Gyoel entering inside. The old man had a vicious smirk resting on his face and Jungkook could tell that something was not quite right. "There is no trial today. CEO Jeon." The man reiterated surprising everyone.
"What? Are you surprised that i know about your secret identity?" Han-Gyoel said looking at the bewildered expression on the faces around him. He cockily walked towards the couch and sat there casually. "Jungkook did you really think that Taehyung, my son was going to chose you over me. It was a plan my dear. He was with you as a spy. Every information he got was given to me. How do you think I came to know about you being the real CEO of AD Corp.? We planned everything together Jungkook. Even this scandal. Not just that but today Taehyung and Seojun changed every document from your files. You are going to lose your company soon."
"Stop lying you f*cker." Jungkook shouted at the top of his voice. His eyes were red and his blood boiling with anger. Tae will not backstab me. He loves me. He'll never do that. He promised. His heart was chanting these words inside to keep him sane.

Han-Gyoel smirked looking at the worked up ravenette. His plan was working perfectly. "I'll prove it you then." Saying this he gestured Seojun to come forward and the said man nodded his head following every instruction.
"Seojun hyung come to the Jeon mansion tomorrow and look into the files. We have to be quick and do it before the trial."
The audio Seojun played was enough for Jungkook's heart to break. The voice was undoubtedly Taehyung's. Jungkook's step staggered as he stepped back in shock. He was rendered wordless. You were fooled again. Congratulations Jungkook. His mind mocked him.
"Taehyung wanted to stay with you and keep up with the act till we successfully take Asmodeus down but I want my son to come back to me. I can't see him staying in a place that makes him unhappy. This is the only reason I told you the truth. Hopefully you'll free him after this." Saying this the man got up and walked towards the door.
"I'm sorry to say this but he never loved you Jungkook. You were just too dense to notice the truth. If you had tried a little you could have definitely seen it. My success is all because of your foolishness. So thank you very much." With that the devil left the place with his accomplice leaving behind a broken ravenette.
Jungkook on the other hand left numb. He didn't know what to do or how to react. He was totally blank. Everything felt unreal and he wanted it to be nothing but a bad dream.
"Jungkook?" Jimin's unsure voice forced him to look at the others. He had totally forgotten about them. "Kook......" Jimin couldn't say a word more. Jungkook just looked at them with tears streaming down his face. Tears that he was unaware of. "He fooled me again hyung. He fooled me again and I trusted him like the fool I am." He finally broke his silence.
"Let's go talk to him Jungkook. He can't get away after betraying us for the second time." Yoongi said looking at the younger with his blood shot eyes. Jungkook shook his head and smiled bitterly. He wiped his tears harshly and said "He doesn't deserve to know hyung. He doesn't deserve any chances to justify his actions or even say a word. I won't go to him and make a fool of myself again."
He took in a deep breath and gulped the lump in his throat. The thought of the betrayal made a sudden surge of hatred and anger travel through his body.
"He killed my last good today and now he'll see a new version of me. The version that his fake love created."
