CHAPTER 08&09

JEON INVESTMENT***
Jimin alighted from the cab when the car stopped just outside the company.
"Thank you" he smiled after paying the cab man. There was a huge traffic jam on the road so he arrived a bit late.
"Hope this should be different" he said to himself. He inhaled deeply for a while, after gaining a lot of courage that he thinks it's actually enough for him, he made his way into the company.
"Whoa! This is so huge" he gushed, gawking at how beautiful the company is.
He kept looking around in awe till he bumps into a guy. His bag fell and the contents in it spilled out on the floor.
"Oh my, I'm so sorry" he muttered as he bent to pick his bag up.
"It's fine," Jin said. He helped him to pick some stuff and handed it to her.
He tried to walk away but he quickly stopped him.
"Erm... Actually, I came here for an interview and I can't seem to find my way here. Can you please help me?" He asked.
"Take a lift and go to the eight floor, the interview is taking place there," Jin said.
"Thank you so much" he smiled and left instantly. He was already late enough as it is.
Jin stared at him as he walked away and smiled.
"He's so ... beautiful😳," he mumbled to himself.
****
Jimin arrived 30 minutes late for the interview and was met with a lot of people to be interviewed. He felt goosebumps all over him. Every one was dressed neatly and classily unlike him who was just in casual outfits 🤧.
He made his way to the first batch, his eyes widened when he saw the numbers of people there.
"200??" His heart skipped a beat. Would he be able to get this job? Not with these people here, especially the ladies around here.
He wrote down his name and necessary information before going to sit at a vacant seat.
"Are you here for the interview?" A girl asked beside him.
"Er... Yea" Jimin replied awkwardly.
Somehow, he felt disturbed. How was he able to be invited for an interview when he didn't even apply for the job? What if someone was playing a trick on him?
"I've been here for a long time, but it seems the interview won't be ending today as we're so much" the girl said.
"But you know, most of the girls and guys here aren't actually here for the job"
Jimin turned to her.
"Really? Then what?"
"They're here for the CEO. Heard he's a wealthy Billionaire and a woMANizer, I guess they came here for him to notice them"
Jimin shook his head in pity.
"Some people can be pretty jobless at times" he muttered.
"Are you Park Jimin?" A guy in black asked as he walked over to him.
"I am... Why?"
"The interviewers will like to have you," the guy said.
Jimin glanced at the girl beside him whose name is Sarah in shock.
"What? It's not yet my turn, my name is 230 and..."
"You should go," Sarah said to him.
"Okay" he stood up and was led out by the guy. One thing he's sure of is that something is wrong somewhere.
"I was here before her, how come he's going before me?"
"He just arrived not quite long"
Loud murmurings filled the whole place and Jimin felt guilty. They were right after all, he met them here.
"This way please"the guy said, jolting him back to reality.
"Oh, yea" he chuckled nervously.
Jimin opened the door as the guy instructed him to, he met the interviewers and he suddenly grew scared. What if this was all a trick?
"Mr. Park, right?" One of the interviewers asked.
"Yes"
"Please kindly fill in the information and hand over your files, we need to take a look at it"
"Sure" Jimin hands over his files to them and fills in the necessary information he was to fill.
The interviewers sighed softly after reading his files, they both looked at themselves and did the eye contact thing.
"Congratulations, Mr. Park. You passed the interview"
"Oh my goodness!" Jimin was close to crying. As much as he was excited that he got the job, he was also curious as to how he was invited for the interview. There's no way he could have gotten the job amidst the crowds outside waiting.
"Thank you so much, thank you" he said repeatedly. This was a dream come true for him.
"You'll be taken to the CEO's office, he'll be the one to direct you to your duties and other things"
Jimin nods his head absentmindedly. He was so happy, his mom would be so glad to hear this.
"Follow me, please," a lady said.
Jimin faced the interviewers and bowed his head.
"Thank you so much" he said and then followed the lady out of the room.
"Isn't this kinda suspicious? How could the Boss ask us to just employ him as the secretary when there are thousands of candidates waiting outside" one of the interviewers said.
"Well, he isn't bad either. And his credentials are okay" the other one said.
"You're right tho"
****
Jimin kept following the lady behind till they got to a door with words inscribed on it.
"That's the CEO's office, you may go in," the lady said.
"Huh? Alone?" Jimin asked but she was already gone.
"What the hell!" Jimin looked around in confusion.
"CEO Jeon Jungkook?" She read the word on the door aloud.
He raised his hand and knocked on the door slowly.
"Come in" he heard a deep voice.
He inhaled sharply and opened the door. He entered the office slowly and cold air hit his skin immediately.
His eyes went to the figure who's sitting on a chair, backing her.
"Good morning sir, I'm Park Jimin and..."
"I know," Jungkook said, cutting him off.
Jimin furrowed his brow in confusion. Oddly, his voice sounds familiar.
"Sir?"
Jungkook twirled the chair around and Jimin's eyes widened when he saw the person he's least expecting at that moment.
"You?"
Jungkook chuckled.
"Surprised, aren't you?"
"What's the meaning of this? Did you follow me here too?" Jimin half yells.
"And I'll be here sitting in the CEO's office?" Jungkook asked back.
Those words alone were enough to drive Jimin into a state of confusion.
"Or.... Do you want me to explain further?" Jungkook asked as he got to his feet.
"This.... Is this your doing?" He asked slowly.
"What do you think?" He shrugged.
"Why?"
"You already know the answer," he replied with a smile.
Jimin scoffed in disbelief.
"Then I'm sorry to burst your bubble, I won't be accepting this job because I refuse to be a rich man's prey!" He fired.
"I believe that must be a joke"
"Well, it ain't a joke because I'm f**king serious! I don't care about the way my life is but I'm never working with you! Not even in my wildest dream!" He glared.
He turned to leave but his next words stopped him.
"Then, how do you intend to do it? Remember you lost your job last night" Jungkook smirked.
"I'm actually doing you a favor so I don't think I'm the bad guy here. This is actually a very good opportunity for you...." He moved closer to him and bent towards his ear.
"Think deeply, Jimin," he whispered. He stood straight and then went back to his seat.
"You're dismissed" he said authoritatively.
Jimin walked to him in anger, he raised his hand and hit him very hard on the cheek.
"Damn you for taking me as a cheap slūt! To hell with you and your f**king company!" He shouted. He glared at him and left the office in anger.
Jungkook stared into space in shock, he raised his hand and touched his left cheek which was stinging so bad.
This was the second time he was going to hit him again and surprisingly, he couldn't even do a thing.
"You'll come back, trust me"
****
Jimin walked out of the company in anger, he felt like hitting him till he passed out but he controlled himself. He wouldn't want to bring any problem to his family.
"F**k him! Just when I thought I finally got a job only to receive this"
He flashed down a taxi and entered it.
"Guryeo, H&J restaurant please," he said.
The taxi driver nodded and the car zoomed out of the place.
They arrived at the restaurant, after paying the can man, he alighted from the car and entered the restaurant.
He met Hana sitting on one of the chairs looking disturbed, he quickly rushed to her.
"Mom, what's wrong?" He asked.
Hana turned to him and smiled.
"You're back. How did it go? Did they employ you?" She asked.
Jimin bit his lips.
"Actually..." He looked around the place.
"Where's Dad?" He asked.
"He stepped out for a bit. So, how did it go?" Hana asked again, staring at him eagerly.
"It's a long day mom, I'm so tired" he said
"Something went wrong, isn't it?" Hana asked after studying him for sometime.
"Huh? Like what?"
"You know, you don't have to do what you don't like just for us. We can still manage, and your Dad and I are going to work hard to make sure Jimoon finishes his school. Don't overwork yourself just for us, okay?"
Jimin stared at her for a while before smiling.
"I got the job, mom"
"What? Are you serious?" Hana asked happily.
"Yes mom"
Hana pulls him to a hug.
"That's great! It's good news" she said.
"Yes mom" Jimin muttered, he couldn't even bring himself to tell his mom that he declined the job.
After losing two of her jobs, he couldn't afford to lose this one too.
He just needs to put that perverted boss of his in his place. He needs to make sure he's never going to fall for his demands.

SEOUL HIGHSCHOOL***
"Hey Jimoon, it's lunch time," Lisa said as she walked to Jimoon's seat.
"Yeah... Have you seen Hyeonji around?
**Jimoon's crush, Hyeonji**
She didn't come to class" Jimoon said.
"Worrying about your crush again?" Lisa asked, smiling teasingly.
"I already told you she's not my crush, she's just...." Jimoon stopped not knowing what to say.
"Just what? A friend? C'mon, you can't fool me" Lisa said.
"Seriously, I don't like her. I don't have a crush either" Jimoon said.
"Umm, yes you don't" Lisa said, mocking him silently.
"You don't believe me?"
"Why should I?" She grinned.
"You can't fool me, Jimoon" she stuck her tongue at him and went out of the class.
"Hey, Lisa!" Jimoon called as he ran after her.
He caught up with her in the school hallway, but she was staring at something else.
"Hey, I'm serious. I don't like her, I'm..." He stopped talking when he saw a shocking scene before him.
Hyeonji and Wang, his greatest rival in school, are kissing each other
He took slow steps backward and ran out of the place.

"Did you mean all those?" Jin laughed after Jungkook had finished explaining his encounter with Jimin.
"That's surprising, I mean, no one would ever do that in their right senses. I believe he doesn't even know who you are"
"He did, and he surprised me," Jungkook muttered, remembering the occurrence that morning.
"But I'm still confused, you don't f**k your employees but why then did you offer him a job in your company?" Jace asked.
Jungkook went silent. Jin was right, he doesn't do his employees, why then did he applied him when his main aim is to f**k him.
What was he actually thinking?
"You even went far in paying his boss five hundred thousand dollars just to fire him. Doesn't that sound weird to your ears?" Jin asked.
"And to think he even rejected the job after everything, he must really have the guts. I'd love to meet him someday" Jin said.
"Just keep shut, you're beginning to annoy me" Jungkook said.
"I need to see him, I came here earlier this morning for an interview" they suddenly heard an argument.
The door opened and Jimin entered with a guard beside him.
"I tried to stop him but he's being adamant" the guard said.
Jungkook smirked when he saw him. He knew he's surely going to come back.
"I'm gonna accept this job but on one condition, if you dare try any shit with me, I'm gonna cut off your d**k and feed it to the dogs. Trust me, I mean what I just said now" Jimin said, staring at him boldly.
