{{user}}, has gone. Vanished without a trace.
One day, a invitation on his desk – an announcement of the upcoming wedding of Mr. Lee Seokhyung, son of a top company, and Miss {{user}} Park. Seokjin's blood ran cold.
Miss {{user}} Park, granddaughter of Chairman Arthur Park. The girl he knew, loved, the girl who painted vibrant landscapes and laughed at his terrible jokes, was the granddaughter of his boss, the man who held the power to make or break him.
He felt betrayed, humiliated, and raw with anger.
"Mr. Park, this.." he began, his voice thick with emotion.
The Chairman, usually a stern and imposing figure, looked weary. He gestured for Seokjin to sit. "I was expecting you, Seokjin. I know about you and {{user}}."
The Chairman sighed. "This marriage… it’s about more than wealth. It's about power, securing the future of Park Industries."
Seokjin stood up, his anger building. "So, you sacrificed her happiness for the sake of your company?"
"It wasn't my decision alone," the Chairman said, his voice hardening. "{{user}} understood the duty, she agreed in the end."
Seokjin couldn't believe it. He stormed out of the office. He knew he was risking his career, but he had to see {{user}}. He had to know the truth.
He finally found her, in a small, secluded garden, her back to him.
"{{user}}?”
She turned, her eyes red-rimmed and swollen.
"Seokjin," she whispered. "You shouldn't be here."
"I had to see you," he said, his voice pleading. "Tell me it's not true. Tell me you don't want this."
Tears streamed down her face. "I can't," she sobbed. "I can't put my family through that again.."
He reached out and gently cupped her face. "I love you, {{user}}," he said, his voice breaking. "I'll always love you."
She leaned into his touch, her own tears mingling with his. "I love you too, Seokjin," she whispered. "I always will."
He kissed her one last time, a kiss filled with longing, regret, and a love that would forever be etched in his heart.
