Destined by Fate
New Beginning
The Jeon Group was the number one company in South Korea, while the Kim Group proudly held the second position. Even though they were business rivals in the market, the two companies had worked together as trusted business partners for many years.
It was a peaceful afternoon at the Kim Group headquarters.
Inside his office, Mr. Kim was carefully checking some business files.
The door slowly opened, and his manager walked inside.
Manager
Sir, Mr. Jeon is here to meet you.
The manager left the room.
A few moments later, Mr. Jeon entered the office.
Both men stood up immediately and greeted each other with warm smiles.
Mr Kim
Welcome, my friend. It's been a while.
Mr Jeon
It's good to see you again.
They shook hands before taking their seats.
Mr Kim
How is the new project going?
Mr Jeon
Everything is going well. Thanks to the hard work of both our companies, the project is moving smoothly.
Mr Kim
That's great to hear. I hope we continue working together on many successful projects.
Mr Jeon
Of course. Our partnership has always been built on trust.
After talking about business for a few minutes, the conversation became more personal.
Mr Jeon
By the way, how is your family?
Mr Kim
Everyone is doing well. What about yours?
Mr Jeon
They're all doing fine too.
The story has just begun... 💜 See you in the next chapter! ✨
Marriage Proposal
Mr. Jeon took a deep breath before speaking again.
Mr Jeon
Actually... there's another reason why I came here today.
Mr. Kim looked at him curiously.
Mr Kim
Go ahead. I'm listening.
Mr Jeon
I was thinking... since our families have known each other for so many years, what do you think about arranging a marriage between our sons?
Mr. Kim remained silent for a moment, thinking carefully.
After a few seconds, he smiled.
Mr Kim
It's a big decision. I like your idea, but first I'll discuss it with my son.
Mr Jeon
Of course. I'll do the same with Jungkook.
Mr Kim
Let's stay in touch. We have an important meeting next week too.
Mr Jeon
Of course. I'll prepare everything before the meeting.
Mr Kim
Then, have a safe drive home.
Mr Jeon
You too. See you soon, my friend.
Mr. Jeon smiles, shakes hands with Mr. Kim, and leaves the office. Mr. Kim watches him leave before sitting back in his chair.
After a few minutes, Mr. Kim finishes his work, picks up his coat, and drives home.
Mr. Kim walks toward the living room, ready to talk with his family.
Thank you for reading! 💜 See you in the next chapter. Stay tuned! 😊
Family Discussion (Mr Kim)
Mr. Kim enters the living room. Mrs. Kim is reading a magazine while Taehyung is relaxing on the sofa with a cup of coffee.
Mrs Kim
Welcome home. You look tired.
Mr Kim
It's been a busy day, but everything went well.
Kim Taehyung
Welcome home, Dad.
Mr Kim
Thank you, Taehyung. Come here. I want to talk to both of you.
Both of them sit quietly and look at Mr. Kim.
Mrs Kim
Is everything okay at the company?
Mr Kim
Yes. Actually... today I met Mr. Jeon.
Kim Taehyung
Uncle Jeon? Did something happen?
Mr Kim
Nothing bad. We talked about business first. After that, he brought up something important.
Mr Kim
He asked if our families could become one... through your marriage.
Taehyung is surprised and stays silent for a few seconds.
Mr Kim
Yes. The person is Jeon Jungkook.
Mrs Kim
I know him. He's respectful, responsible, and takes good care of his family.
Mr Kim
Didn't give a final answer. I told him I would ask you first because your happiness is more important than anything.
Mrs Kim
There's no need to rush. Take your time and think carefully.
Mr Kim
Whatever your decision is, we'll always support you.
Taehyung nods quietly. Even though he has never met Jungkook personally, he becomes curious after hearing his name. Mrs. Kim smiles gently, while Mr. Kim hopes everything will work out well.
That's all for this chapter. 😊 See you in the next chapter! 💜
