《THE FORGOTTEN DAD》CHAPTER 10
Advertisement
Jungkook was rushed entering JK Group building without waiting for his personal assistant, Kino who tried to chase him behind. He also ignored all of his employees that he bumped with who bowed down to him as soon he stepped into the building. Every single word that just came out from Mark a moment ago only fueling the fire that burned inside of him. And every Mark's violated phrase was like gasoline to it, his fists began to clench and his jaw rooted. His face was red with suppressed rage. As soon he arrived in his office, Jungkook tugged off his tie, tossed it on the couch, and headed for the wet bar. He grabbed the whiskey bottle, unscrewed the cap and poured it into a shot glass. When the liquid settled he brought it to his lips and didn't let the whiskey sit in his mouth for a second before swallowing it.
He was so pissed off with the way of Mark treated him at Raymond Hotel. That scumbag really wanted to declare a war with him! Threatening him with that stupid false accusation? And even dare to throw him into prison? Oh Mark, you still have no idea on how he did play in the business game. If he wanted to play dirty, then Jungkook also could attack him in a dirty way too.
"How's the progress going?"
Jungkook walked down from the bar and went to his desk, where Kino already waiting for him. He crossed his leg as soon he sat on the chair and glared at Kino. His hand swirled the whiskey in his glass, listening to the clinking of the ice cubes while waiting for his personal assistant's response.
"I already threw away all those illegal products, sir. But we still can't delete that information from our system saving data. I think the one who did it had hired an expert hacker to make those purchases interminable,"
He sighed. It's still a bad news for him. If the police barge into JK Group once Mark reported this, he definitely will be in trouble.
"Find another hacker in town that could handle this. I want the best one! And tell them I will give a hefty price just only to clear that data,"
"Noted, sir. But what if Mark Tuan really will report you to the police and at the same time we still can't manage to disappear those evidence?"
"Then we got no other choice and making Mrs. Jeon as President for temporary until we caught a real criminal behind this,"
That's the only way to prevent JK Group from shutting down. By making someone replacing his position for a while until he finds another solution to prove that he is incorrupt. And the one and only that qualify to take this responsibility is his wife, Y/N. He didn't worry about how she's gonna manage it soon because he knew her capability well on handling such a big company like this. But what he worried the most is whether she agrees or not. And if she even accepts this kind of request, what happens to their marriage agreement? What if he will be stuck in prison more than the agreement period? Will Y/N still by his side or left both him and the JK Group? Or what if Y/N do will leave him soon and take over JK Group? No! No! No! He can't think negatively towards his wife. Jungkook knew Y/N well enough and she's not the type of materialistic woman like Jennie. She rather left Jungkook without getting any money if she truly and desperately doesn't want to live with him anymore.

"I'm afraid that your marriage agreement ended when you still in prison, sir. How about JK Group's future?"
"That's why we need to prove that JK Group never done any dirty work before! I want you to assist and protect Mrs. Jeon at all costs when I'm in the prison later. That's an order from me, Kino!"
And at the same time, Kino also will help him to find a way to prove that he is innocent and just a victim of Mark's accusation.
It's already midnight and Jungkook just arrived at his house after the whole day been out for some meetings with the clients. He then remembered what happened this morning. Y/N whimpered running towards him when she heard about him getting to prison soon. Did she just start to care him back? Is she still loves him after all of this?
As soon as he reached the living room, he saw his maid, Mrs. Choi stood still beside a couch. His eyes turned to look at that couch and noticed Y/N lay down, sleeping. Why she slept here?
"Welcome home, Mr. Jeon,"
"Why she's here?"
Jungkook sat on the couch and stroked Y/N's hand. Her eyes got puffy and she looked very extremely tired. He then looked at Mrs. Choi who gets nervous and fidgety.
"She's been crying all day, trying to get out of this house. Mrs. Jeon wanted to meet you but Mr. Kino commands all the bodyguards to not let her leave this place today, sir..."
Why she acted that way if she really hates Jungkook? Why she even care to waste her tears for him now?
I'm sorry if I made you cry, I'm sorry if tears fell from your eyes, for that is not what I intended to do, but just remember, Y/N... for every tear that fell from your precious eyes, two fell from mine...
"Did she eat anything today?" Jungkook looked at the untouched food on the table.
"No sir,"
"Alright, Mrs. Choi. You may go now. Thanks for taking care of her today,"
He took Y/N into his both arms and lifted her to the upstairs, to her room. It's been a while he didn't lift her up since she started to argue with him. There's nothing that could make him happier than lifting his two lovers at the same time. His wife and his future daughter. After he puts Y/N on the bed and starting to step away from her, he felt his hands held by someone. He turned and found Y/N already awake, looking at him with her teary eyes. She started to cry again.
"Can you sleep here tonight?" asked her with a raspy voice. That was unexpected words coming from her. But seeing Y/N like this makes his heart wrenched and he definitely can't hold his feeling any longer.
"Please don't cry, Y/N. I'm here. I already here and I won't leave you anymore," said him while wiping her cheeks who already wet with the tears.
He placed himself beside his wife, lying down on the bed facing her face. Staring her with unconditionally love. Unexpectedly, she hugged him and leaned her head against his chest like he did last night. She's giving Jungkook a hope. A hope that this marriage doesn't need that agreement anymore. A hope that they both could last forever. A hope that makes him spirit up to fight for her again.
If you just give me a small chance. I will prove it to you that I will be one of the best decisions you'll ever make. But then again, I'm glad I meet you, Y/N. Cause you were the one who asked me if anything was wrong. You were the one who loved me for me. The one who cared when everyone else didn't. The one who listened. You were the one who I told secrets to. The one who taught me new things. The one who laughed at my bad jokes. The one who did things, just for me. And yet, I was the one who stupid enough to notice that.

"Why I'm so stupid..."
"No you're not baby..." replied Jungkook, softly while kissing her forehead.
"I should hate you more by now, Jungkook... But I can't..."
Can we start over, Y/N? Can we be strangers again? I will introduce myself... We can laugh and talk... And relearn what we already know... And come up with new inside jokes... And create new memories... And give each other... A second chance...
"But now... Jungkook..." she loosened her hug and lifts her face, looking at Jungkook.
"Please don't go... I can't do this on my own..."
A single tear slid down from his warm eyes, when Y/N said those words and it keeps followed by another one, and another one, until soon, a steady stream of salty tears flowed its way down his pale cheek, releasing the sadness and sorrow that has been held inside of him for all this time but still he did not make a sound. At the same time, a girl with deep, black eyes let out a heart-wrenching wail, that was followed by a series of blatant tears. Jungkook took her into his arms again.
"I'm not going anywhere. I won't leave, I won't give up and I will be here every single time you need me. Thank you, Y/N... Thank you for giving me another chance ... I will never let you down again,"
The next morning...
Jungkook awake by looking at Y/N who still sleeping by his side. Since last night, both of their hands never let go of each other. He's so glad that finally Y/N opened her heart back to him. Everything heals. Her heart heals. The mind heals. The wound heals and happiness is always going to come back because bad times definitely won't last. She's a good-hearted woman. She's been hurt over and over again and of course, he would expect her to be heartless by now but her heart is so full of love that she continues to love Jungkook deeply. All she needs is a good person that will cherish her and give her heart the extra love that she deserves and Jungkook will try his best to be that good person. Suddenly his phone rang and making Y/N move a little bit. He quickly picks up the call, didn't want to make it awake his wife. It was Kino.
"It's already 10 am, sir and where are you now exactly? You have a meeting with our client from Japan,"
"Cancel it..."
"What?! No, you can't sir,"
"Postpone it to next Tuesday. Say to them that I apologize for today and the next meeting will be held in Japan,"
And before Kino got to continue his words, Jungkook already put off the phone.
"Who was that?" Jungkook looked at Y/N who wide awake now.
"Good morning sleepy head!" he gave her a dozen kisses on her face. This was the best and happiest day ever for him. And he really wanted to spend time with Y/N today. He really misses her!
"Let's go somewhere today,"
"Where,"
"Anywhere that suitable for a date,"
ⓞ
"Remember this place?"
Jungkook brought her to their first date place which called The Garden of Morning Calm. Scenic walkways, beautifully manicured grass and flower beds connect the garden's 20 different themed sections, this place was perfect to recall back their memories. Both of them walked into the garden while holding each other hand, tightly. Sometimes he sneaks peek into Y/N's face who seems overjoyed looking at the scenery. Yes, this place indeed beautiful, but there's another flower who about to bloom beautifully beside him and he didn't want to miss the chance to watch it.
"We used to put our names here,"
Jungkook stopped at one tree. He remembered he used to write his name and Y/N on that tree. But where their name is gone now?
"It's already grown taller, Jungkook. Look!" said Y/N while pointed out her finger. Jungkook also lifted up his head. Their names are still there and thank god it was up in the sky so no one can notice that.
"How about we put our daughter name here?" Jungkook tried to find any rock on the ground.
"I didn't think about it yet,"
"I did," replied Jungkook.
"E... V... A..." spelled Jungkook one by one while his hand keeps carving on that tree.
"Eva?"
"Yes, baby. Our daughter name is Eva which means life in Hebrew. She will be our life. The most precious living in our life,"
"I like that name. But do you really don't want to put Korean name for her?" Jungkook laughed when Y/N said that to him.
"It's Mummy's job to find it," replied him while winking at his wife.
They went back home after spending almost half day outside. And as soon as they arrived home, there was Kino who welcoming them. But Kino's expression was a little bit different. He was seemed nervous.
"Have you watched the television yet?" asked him to Jungkook.
"What happened?"
Kino quickly turned on the television and...
Jeon Jungkook's ex-girlfriend, Jennie Kim had revealed her pregnancy today and claiming her rights as the mother of this young President of JK Group's another future child. When Jeon Jungkook's marriage with Y/N that still a week old, Jennie gave a shocking statement that her child is been disgraced by his own father for another woman. Jennie also said that the real father of Y/N's child is Mark Tuan who we knew him as the CEO of Raymond Hotel and Mark was believe didn't want to be responsible of that child, forcing Jungkook to marry her for only family's dignity. Here is the proof that given by Jennie about their marriage agreement, saying that Jungkook has to pay 10 million alimony for Y/N once they will divorce later. Citizens keep saying that Y/N might come for his wealth since Mark already rejected her...
Jungkook shouted at Kino before turned back looking at Y/N beside him.
"It's not true, Y/N. You knew this well than others..."
"She did come to this house yesterday," said Y/N, starting to cry.
"What?"
"She showed me of her baby's photo,"
"It's not my baby, Y/N... It isn't mine!"
Y/N suddenly shouted at him while crying over and over again. He looked at her who starting to step away from him.
WHY NOW? WHY Y/N? WHY?
