Matthew Kim

5 years ago

Matthew gathered all his courage to pursue something he really wanted but his parents are against of- and that is to become a part of JEON CORP. Ever since his middle school, Matthew were determine to enter the biggest corporation of their time as any position they have offered him to be. He may start at the bottom but he's sure he will climb up to the top. He just needed a chance to enter the corporation, to achieve his goal- bring the corporation down.

The man looking at himself in the full body mirror, smirked at his memory. I'm bringing back what grandpa worked hard for. He thought as he fixes his necktie and put on his coat then he carried his leather bag and drove himself to the corporation. As he stepped out of his car, he reminded himself to work harder today.

5 years of climbing the ladder of success after his family disowned him was harder than he thought but now, it actually paid off. He's been the right hand of the Chief Operating Officer (COO) for a year now, close enough to the head of the corporation. He actually doesn't have any degree, because he doesn't have enough money to pursue college since his family disowned him for turning against their will but he entered the corporation as an intern with false information about his real family after he graduated middle school.

He hides his true family background from the corporation so that they won't find him suspicious because he's a "Kim", the Jeon's fallen enemy. Then they discovered his potential as an asset in the corporation so they kept him around and learned on the process, that's how he earned their trust.

Now, he just needed more time to complete his plan, he'd been sabotaging the corporation little by little as soon as he set foot in the corporation 5 years ago. And as soon as he entered his boss' office he inwardly smiled when he saw him frustrated over the shareholders who pulled out their investments in this week.

"Sir, here's the documents you've asked." Matthew said and gave the binder of documents to Jasper Jeon the son of the CEO- Luther Jeon. His enemies.

"Thank you, Kim. Here's the list of the remaining shareholders, secure them." His boss asked him then went to his cubicle- just outside Jasper's office. He did what he's been told. Communicating with the office of the remaining shareholders to set up a meeting with the purpose of securing that they won't pull out their shares.

The corporation is near to its bankruptcy, it's just a matter of time. Matthew scheduled the meetings on the week after next week to prolong his boss' agony. After the office hours, Matthew stayed a little longer as his boss is still in his office. He pretends to be busy in front of his desktop while waiting for his boss' order for him to go home.

When the clock strikes 9 his boss came to his cubicle then told him to go home. He politely bid his boss goodbye then packed his things and went to the elevator going to the parking lot. As the elevator's doors opened, Matthew stepped out then walks to where he parked his car.

He didn't immediately start the engine when he's inside of his car, instead he picked up his phone then called someone. He told the person what he wanted the person to do for him then when he ended the call, he drove himself home.

After a while, he arrived at his condo. He then went to the locked room then punched in his passcode and busied himself in front of the desktop, reviewing the files concerning the recent illegal transactions of the corporation and the recent confidential files of the corporation. He saved those files in a hard drive then put the hard drive in the vault. He smiled when he saw the other hard drives in the vault and the other documents placed under the stacked of hard drives that will lead the corporation to its downfall.

"In two months, I will end the Jeon Corporation and bring back the Kim Corporation." He promised himself. He stared at the closed vault for a moment before he went out of the room. Then, he went to his bedroom, removed all his clothes, and went to the shower. He let the warm water to cascade from his hair down his body for a while before he washed his hair with shampoo and his body with his shower gel.

After bathing, Matthew prepared the ingredients he wanted to cook for himself for dinner. Then after an hour, he set the table and ate while classic music was playing in the background. He takes his time eating his food while his mind was formulating his next move for the coming days.

He washed the dishes then dry them and put them in the shelves. After he tidy all the dishes, he went to the living room and watches the news. The news in the business category were all about the nearing downfall of the Jeon Corp., he didn't contain his smile while watching the news and just let it plaster in his face. He's imagining the defeated faces of his enemies who's probably watching the news at the moment.

The corporation is on the edge already, only a miracle can save the corporation, most of the people already lost their trust in the corporation as the other chain of businesses under the corporation even its franchises were already down, their manufacturing of products already stopped months ago, and the remaining investors and shareholders are on the verge of pulling out their investments and shares. The corporation couldn't function already, the remaining hope to save the corporation were the chain of restaurants that were still operational globally but it's not earning enough, and Matthew already on the move to take down the chain of restaurants.

When the news ended, Matthew turned the television off and went to his bedroom. He lies in his bed after he turned the lights off leaving the lamp on the side table then stared at the ceiling reliving his happy memories with his family. He didn't resent them even after disowning him, because he believed that after all this, they will see what he's been working hard for and they'll see that he only did what he's been doing for them. After a while, he closed his eyes then let his mind and body to rest.
