“I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they’re right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.” – Marilyn Monroe

Chapter 9: Money

Taehyung just come back to Jungkook's house. Like what Jungkook's men told him, Jungkook was waiting for him.

"You took so long." Jungkook uttered removing the shades out of his eyes and standing up from the couch.

"Ah, sorry, I just got a bit talk with my father." Taehyung replied rubbing the back of his neck.

"Did he say something to you?" Jungkook asked standing in front of him.

"Nothing much serious, he just taunted me because of what happened." Taehyung replied.

"Really? What do you want me to do with him?" Jungkook asked smirking.

"Don't think about him anymore, I am glad that I am free from him." Taehyung smiled genuinely.

"That's good, I would like to see you smiling often." Jungkook giggled patting his chin.

"So, where would I stay?" Taehyung asked looking at him innocently.

"Why do you need to ask about that? Of course, here." Jungkook replied going beside him and holding his waist.

"Here? Do you have any spare room for me?" Taehyung retorted inquiring.

"Why do you need a spare room if you can use my room instead? I mean, we can share a room." Jungkook snickered.

Taehyung's eyes widened and slightly move away from him.

"Wuh-what?" Taehyung inquired gulping.

"Why? Do you have a problem with that? I'm not uncomfortable sleeping beside you." Jungkook chuckled.

"S-still, I thought you'll provide room for me or at least a cabin." Taehyung pouted.

"Just kidding, of course, there will be room for you." Jungkook giggled ruffling his hair.

"I'm relieved." Taehyung mumbled under his breath.

"Come on, follow me, I'll show you your room." Jungkook said and held his hand.

He dragged Taehyung along with him to the upstairs. He opened the door of the available room and showed it to Taehyung.

"This is the only room I can afford for you but if you don't like this, just tell me what you need." Jungkook stated and move aside so Taehyung would go in first.

"No, it's okay, I will stay here." Taehyung smiled going inside the bedroom.

"Are you sure? I can change it with the type you want so you will feel more comfortable." Jungkook uttered.

"No, it's really okay, you don't have to put much effort into it. I'm really fine." Taehyung assured him.

"If that's what you say, I will go now, just call me or the maid if you need something, okay?" Jungkook retorted ruffling his hair.

Taehyung hums in response and Jungkook just closed the door.

"Hey, JK!!!"

Namjoon greeted and did their first bump.

"What are you guys doing here?" Jungkook asked sitting on the couch.

"Just dropped by somewhere near and decided to go here." Jimin replied sitting down beside him.

"We saw the luggage outside, who's moving out?" Hoseok inquired while getting a beer in the mini bar in the kitchen.

"No one is moving out, someone just came and will live with me." Jungkook clarified.

"What? Don't tell me that you already got in a relationship?" Jin teased sitting on the one-person sofa.

"It's kinda close but he's someone I knew." Jungkook retorted smirking.

"I guess, that Kim Taehyung guy, isn't he?" Yoongi asked laying on the couch.

"So that mean, you bought him, right? His father is asking for money, did you really buy him?" Jin asked curiously.

"There's no way you will spend money just because of that person. You don't even know him. You have to make sure that boy wasn't acting." Namjoon stated.

"You're right, what makes you think I will spend much money just because that bastard person ask me to? There's nothing to worry about, Taehyung isn't that type of person." Jungkook chuckled.

"Just making sure, it's hard to know who's the real and fake." Namjoon reminds him.

"I know, I can assure you Taehyung is just an innocent boy, that's it." Jungkook replied.

"Then, what did you do? You just took 10 million in your bank accounts and I didn't see that it was back yet." Yoongi inquired.

"Wow, hyung, even my bank account you are spying on it." Jungkook dramatically sighed.

"Just want to know what you were doing and that amount is huge that's why I'm concerned." Yoongi lazily uttered.

"You don't have to worry, I will get my money back." Jungkook grinned.

"What do you mean by that?" Jimin asked confusedly

Jungkook smirked in response while humming a song and someone barged inside the house.

"Sir, you got a visitor."

One of his men told him while lowering his head.

"Let him get inside." Jungkook replied.

His men left and another person got inside.

"I got the money back like what you told me."

That person started and set down the two cases on the table. He's the manager that Jungkook talks with.

"You did a good job, Richard." Jungkook grinned.

"Thank you, sir." Richard bowed his head.

"What happened to him? Did he run away or did you catch that bastard?" Jungkook asked while his hyungs were checking the money on the table to make sure it was all real.

"He'll be detained for 1 day in the prison so he won't bother you, sir." Richard replied.

"You are doing such a good job, Ruchard, I think you deserve some of my money then. Hyung, give him one." Jungkook grinned.

Namjoon took the bundle of money and threw it at him.

"Thank you so much, sir." Richard smiled while bowing his head for the nth time.

"You can leave now. Enjoy the money." Jungkook simply said.

Richard left while the others were amazed at Jungkook. Jungkook just look at them and shrugged off his shoulder. He chuckled liking their reaction.
