FATAL TROUBLE (REVERSE HAREM)

Part 115

The morning after you left the mansion was nothing short of a perfect beginning to what was supposed to be a special day. The sky was clear, the air carried the faint scent of blooming flowers from the garden, and inside the grand walls of the mansion, they were preparing something that would make you smile the brightest.

Jay stood in the center of the massive living room, arms crossed, scanning the staff as they arranged the decorations he had chosen himself. Elegant yet simple—he knew what you loved, knew exactly what would make your heart flutter. His phone buzzed in his pocket, but he ignored it, instead stepping forward to fix a misplaced ribbon on the carefully prepared setting.

"She'll love this," he murmured, more to himself than anyone else.

The others were busy with their own tasks, but that didn't mean you weren't on their minds.

....*....

Heeseung, Jake, Sunghoon, and Jay had retreated to the office room within the mansion, dressed in crisp suits, their expressions unreadable as they sat before the screen of their ongoing video conference. They weren't just wealthy businessmen—they were powerhouses. Their names carried weight in every industry they touched.

"She'll be back in the afternoon today, right?" Jake suddenly asked in between discussions, tapping his pen against the table absentmindedly.

Sunghoon, who had been reviewing some documents, smirked. "If she doesn't get too suspicious about why we didn't pick her up."

Jay finally checked his phone at that, scrolling through the messages and notes regarding the surprise before locking it again. "She'll complain about us being busy, but it's worth it."

Heeseung, who had been quiet throughout, leaned back in his chair, exhaling. "As long as she's happy."

The meeting continued, their work never truly stopping, yet every single one of them had already planned to finish early today.

For you.

Sunoo's father had called him earlier that morning, summoning him to his family estate. As much as he didn't want to leave the mansion while preparations for your surprise were ongoing, he understood his responsibilities. As the heir of a powerful lineage, he had duties he couldn't ignore—but he had already decided he would handle everything swiftly and perfectly.

For you.

His father's words droned on in the background as he sat in the grand hall of his family home, his fingers absentmindedly toying with the ring on his hand. He had already mapped out his future, every move he made leading to one thing: a world where you would never have to lift a single finger in worry.

He smiled softly, picturing your reaction when you would finally see the surprise they had prepared for you. He was already anticipating your teasing words, the way your eyes would light up when they revealed everything.

The thought alone made dealing with all this responsibility worth it.

Meanwhile, deep in the underground world where secrets dictated power, Jungwon and Ni-ki sat in a dimly lit private room, going through transactions and negotiations with important figures who knew better than to question them.

It was supposed to be an easy deal—routine. They had done this a thousand times before. But then, amidst the conversations about weapons, alliances, and shifting power dynamics, a certain topic came up.

A familiar name.

"Enhypen?" One of the men in the room scoffed. "You mean the idol group? That Leah girl's connection to them stirred up quite the attention before, but it seems she disappeared off the radar, huh?"
